Adobe 6 Prof on Vista

I have been using Adobe 6 Professional, with Office 2003 / Word and Power Point, on an XP Toshiba Laptop. I have just purchased a new Toshiba LT, that is running Vista Home Premium.

When I try to install Adobe 6 Prof, I am warned of an incompatibility problem.

Is there any way to run Adobe 6 Prof on my Vista machine. Adobe 6 Prof does everything I need and I don't want to spend time learning a new menu system / etc when it's not going to do anything for me

Thank you

Hello ballayre,

Try running Windows Vista Compatability wizard to run Acrobat 6 under a lower versions of Windows. It does not always work, but it's worth a try. You will find the Wizard through the 'Help & Support' area of Windows.Rgds,

If you want a no-problems approach, use Acrobat 8.1 ...

I've been using Acrobat since v1.0 and still get amazed by its power. An Acrobat ACE since 1999
