    Default can't install acrobat reader on my ibook

    ibook G4 OS X 10.3.8 I have tried installing acrobat reader several times but keep getting the message " adobe reader could not install. A required component was not found. Please reinstall adobe reader ." Does anyone know how I find out what the " required component " is. Otherwise I am going round in circles.

    Make sure you have a Shared folder in the Users folder. Also try fixing

    I am having the same problem-iMac OSX 10.3.9. I have a shared folder in the Useres folder, but I'm not sure what "fixing permissions" means.

    Open Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Select your hard drive (must be the boot volume) and click Repair Disk Permissions.

    This is an essential Mac OS X troubleshooting technique.
