The upgrades don't appear to work and the help desk is clueless and just keeps repeating the same steps. It has interfered with my operating programs. I would be on the look out for problems to grow with Adobe. I may go back to Version 6 - I did not have half the problems I have incurred in the last week.

I would be on the look out for problems to grow with Adobe.

I may go back to Version 6 – I did not have half the problems I have incurred in the last week.

I don't have Adobe Reader as an application (Mac G5 PPC), but Acrobat Pro. I updated it per instructions to 9.3.1, but Safari still has Adobe Acrobat and Reader Web browser plug-in 9.3.0. How is the plug-in updated? One question. I don’t have Adobe Reader as an application (Mac G5 PPC), but Acrobat Pro.
