Install Instructions: (Read carefully!

)
1. Disable your Network card or pull the network cable out.
And make sure you dont have any of those entries in your hosts file
Go to Terminal to delete these two lines, and save with Control + o
127.0.0.1 lmlicenses.wip4.adobe.com

Lets start clean :)
2. Install Adobe Acrobat XI Pro , Select Trial
3. Launch Adobe Acrobat XI
Enter a Serial generated by our Keygen, DONT Close the Keygen or write your s
erial down
When the error "Please connect to the internet and retry", shows click connec
t later.
4. Start or Restart Adobe Acrobat XI, after a while you will have an option
To register (under Help Menu). Select and Confirm you have "connection proble
m"
and you want it to activate offline.
5. A request code will be generated. Use it with the serial you used to install
adobe
to generate an activation code.
6. Validate it of course :). Dont Restart Adobe Acrobat BEFORE step7 is done
7. Run Osx/disable_activation_osx as root
if you dont know how to do that, open a terminal window
then issue sudo -s, a root shell will open
then simply do "sh disable_activation_osx" w/o the ""
or ./disable_activation_osx( make it executable chmod 755 disable_activation_
osx
you do that from the folder where disable_activation_osx is. (just copy it an
ywhere on your hdd)
Or do it manually
Add the text below to the bottom of your hosts file. (/private/etc/hosts /et/
hosts)
# Adobe Blocker
127.0.0.1 lmlicenses.wip4.adobe.com
127.0.0.1 lm.licenses.adobe.com
8. After it has been activated re-enable you Network card and run the adobe upda
ter to update your software to the latest version.
9. Enjoy!
Note: If you encounter any issues with a previous installation / crack, please
uninstall and delete those folders :
./Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLStore
./Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLCache
They are found by going to Finder. Look for tab "Go", drop down to "Go to Folde

r" and type in "/private/etc/". You will find a new folder then go back one to
find "Library".
If you re-install or want to install another application
Before entering your serial
Make sure your host file is clean and your internet is blocked a way or another,
start at Step 1

You may have to relaunch the application, then go to Help > Product registration
. Now a new popup will appear and there will be a link 'Having trouble connectin
g to the internet?'. This is not a button, but a link above the buttons, near th
e top of the popup. After clicking on the link, you will see a button 'Offline A
ctivation'. From here, you can continue to follow the steps from the instruction
s file.

Hi! Can someone please answer this for me? I UNinstalled this Acrobat program be
cause I had some problems with installing it properly. It appears as though the
serial number I entered is still stored somewhere on the computer, since when I
reinstalled it, it only asked me to validate, not enter my serial number, althou
gh it still said it was a trial version. I don't understand. Anyway, I neglected
to save the serial number I used from the generator so now I don't have a match
ing serial with the request code or whatever it is. Help? Is there a file I can
delete or something so I'm starting off fresh? I thought uninstalling would do i
t, but I guess not. I'm running Mountain Lion. Thanks!

This video shows you how to edict the host files. I still used the suggested com
mand provided in the instructions for this torrent, instead of the commands past
ed below the video, in case the ones in the video are outdated. Further, it told
me I wasn't allowed to change the original host document, so I duplicated it, d
ragged the original to copy to my desktop (to have as backup in case), and then
deleted the original inside the private folder and saved the duplicate as host t
o replace it. So far, my internet works and adobe works.

Okay, update. That didn't work. It still attempted to activate and invalidated m
y serial, so not sure if you should just use the code provided in the video, or
what. Sorry!

I'm reposting this from yourboyblue's post that is now buried. I'm currently dow
nloading the torrent, so haven't tried it, but it helped others. Good luck!
User:xintbp, over on PB gave excellent instructions and it got it to work for me
!
"Ok guys, I think a lot of people are confused about the KeyGen process from X-F
orce,
This is how you do it.. because I myself wasted 1 day figuring this out.. and it
finally worked. Steps 1 through 5 is very important.. if you couldn't do this u
ninstall and re-install adobe without the internet connection.
1. Install your Adobe Pro.. DO NOT OPEN it see below when to open it.
2. run your key gen x-force
3. generate a serial number and copy it somewhere (textpad/notepad..etc)
3. close x-Force make sure you have the serial if not re-open and generate anoth
er.
4. disconnect your internet connection. (both wifi and cable if you have.
5. NOW OPEN your adobe, and open any pdf.. after few mins it will ask you to act
ivate stating you have "xx" number of days before you can activate it. Select En
ter License ...
6.(Double check you are not on the internet) Now enter the copied Serial Number
on to the licensing field..
7. It will complain stating internet connection is not found ..bla bla bla. just
ignore it. and Select Activate Later
8. Close your Adobe.. (CMD + Q to quit the app all together _
9. Still make sure your internet is down...
10. Re-open adobe and now again select product registration under help, if it do
esn't pop open.. This time it will state "internet connection problem offline Ac
tivate.. or something similar "
11. now when you press that a long crazy "request code is generated" Copy this t
o the same doc/textpad/notepad where you copied your "serial number" on step 3.
12. NOW re-open x-Force and copy/paste the Serial and the request code from step
11 above. (make sure you delete the "Press generate or paste serial here" and "
Paste request code here" before you paste them.
13. Press "gen. activation code" this should generate the code you need to copy
it back to the adobe activation process.
13. YOUR INTERNET still should be DISCONNECTED. copy the generated "activation c
ode" back to adobe and press activate
14. now adobe will state it is activated.
15. Quit Adobe,
16. edit your hosts file (I am not going to describe that process as its describ
ed below) and add the loop back info 127.0.0.1 .... and connect your internet.
17. Re-Open the adobe and now it should stop complaining.."
Hope This Helps!

i am pretty good with Mac OSX but even I am confused with the instructions and c
annot get this to work. Once installed Adobe validated the serial number and kic
ked it back as invalid. Now the program won't work. Please take the time to expl
ain exactly what we have to do in terminal and exactly lay it out step by step i
nstead of assuming that everyone knows what to do and how to do it. Thanks for t
he efforts.

I did change the HOST FILE and it's still asking for validation when I open a pd
f file. It thinks I'm still using trial. So, I followed instructions to throw aw
ay files in Library/Application Support/Abobe/SLCashe & SLStore what am I doing
wrong?
