    Hi Philippe,

    We care about this issue, but unfortunately, this is designed in this way due to security and license tampering concerns. If someone plays with the clock, then we need to warn him about the same.

    Thanks for reporting this to Adobe. You might be having the old version of Adobe Acrobat which is not compatible with Catalina. COuld you please visit this link and download the installer under the table named 'For Mac OS (v10.12 and above)'.

    After installation sign in with the same ID, you were using it earlier.

    If it still doesn't work provide us the install.log and system.log from /var/log dir.

    Had you tried below steps-

    Quit the Acrobat and update the permission of the OOBE dir using the below command:

    sudo chmod 777 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/OOBE

    After permissions are changed, try again to activate the Adobe Acorbat.

    Hi All,

    We are addressing this issue in the coming May release. Till then please switch to the below workarounds:

    1. login into the root account and license the Acrobat from there.

    2. Run the Acrobat as a superuser: sudo /Applications/Adobe\ Acrobat\ 2017/Adobe\ Acrobat.app/Contents/MacOS/AdobeAcrobat

    3. Quit Acrobat. Delete the OOBE folder by navigating to /Library/Application Support/Adobe/
    Launch Acrobat and sign in.

    Please help us with the below information:

    1. Acrobat version installed on the machine
    2. Permission of the ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
    3. Steps to reproduce the issue

    Seems like the application is facing an issue while writing tokens in one of the installation directories. It can be caused due to permission issues on your system. Could you please try the below and confirm if the issue is resolved:

    Mac:

    Quit the Acrobat.
    Delete the OOBE folder by navigating to /Library/Application Support/Adobe/
    Launch Acrobat and sign in.
    Windows:

    Quit the Acrobat
    Delete the OOBE folder by navigating to \AppData\Roaming\Adobe
    Launch Acrobat and sign in.

    That's great you had got it resolved.

    I checked for the root cause and the problem comes when the licensing application tries to write the data into a folder requiring the special privileges and somehow that folder permission is overridden by an application or user or some other factor.

    Thanks for reaching to us. The actual problem is that Acrobat 2017 is not having sufficient permission. Could you please give a try by running the application using super-user access.

    For that, you need to open the terminal and run the following command: sudo /Applications/Adobe\ Acrobat\ 2017/Adobe\ Acrobat.app/Contents/MacOS/AdobeAcrobat

    If prompted for the password, enter the user account one. This is just the one-time activity, post that you can launch the Acrobat from Application folder or Dock.

    Please let us know if it didn't work.

    Hi Sanjiv,

    We have done the initial analysis and found out that you were running the trial license of Adobe in the past and then updating the Acrobat to the latest version which doesn't support the trial.

    Please confirm how you are trying to activate the Acrobat, whether you are using Trial, Subscription, or Serial.

    If you are a trial user, I would suggest that switch to the Acrobat DC - https://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/APRO/Acrobat_HelpX/osx10/Acrobat_DC_Web_WWMUI.dmg

    Thank you, Sanjiv for providing the permission file.

    For sharing of the log collector's .zxp file:

    1. Sign in to the creative cloud and re-run the tool, it will directly upload the file to the adobe server. ANd just share the file name with us.

    2. You can place the logs on any cloud (Document cloud, GDrive, OneDrive) and copy the sharable link and share it with us.

    In the meantime, could you please try the below workaround and share the result with us:

    1. Quit Acrobat and Adobe Acrobat License Application.
    2. Delete the OOBE folder from /Users/<your_username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/
    3. Restart the machine
    4. Launch the application and try to sign in again.

    Can you please confirm that if you have multiple partitions on your system. And whether Acrobat is installed in more than 1 partitions.

    An error occurred while saving the comment
    Ansh commented  · 

    This probably will be the case when you have multi partitions on your system and one of the partition already had the Adobe Acrobat/ Adobe Reader.

    Can you please check other partitions and remove the Adobe Reader/Adobe Acrobat.

    We are really sorry that you had to face this. In order to isolate the root cause can you please help me with the below info:

    3. Can you provide install logs.
