When every attempt to install Adobe Acrobat Reader DC failed, I simply dragged the program from the Yosemite/Applications folder into the Sierra/Applications folder. My MacBook Pro has been running Yosemite for some time now, the second partition didn't have an OS on it, only data, so that's where I installed Sierra. From Adobe, the leader in secure digital documents for over 20 years. My habit of deleting all data from every new Mac I buy, dividing the hard drive into two partitions, then re-installing the OS on one of them paid off once again. Adobe Acrobat Pro DC brings stunning simplicity to everyday PDF tasks-including revolutionary enhancements for editing PDFs and scanned documents-while the included Adobe Document Cloud services let you accomplish more-in the office or on the go. In desperation I tried running the installer after disabling (removing the check-mark from) the browser installation, thinking that that might make a difference it didn't. The 'Installation' section of the Installer shows two parts of Adobe Reader being installed, the full version and the browser version. I even logged in as Root user, downloaded the program and installed from there. I tried everything, including all suggestions from Adobe's web site. I just installed Sierra 10.12.6 on my MacBook Pro (13-inch mid-2012) and can't get Adobe Acrobat Reader DC to install, it fails:īut there is no Adobe Reader of any kind in the install location.
