I am using MacPro. About to instal Adobe Acrobat and was asked to key in password in order for the installation to proceed / continue. What is meant by this password? Is this my Apple ID ? I only have Apple ID and nothing else. what to do ? Thank you in advance

If you are the very first User created on your Mac, or the only User, it is asking for your Account login password (even if you auto-login) because you are the User with Admin privileges. It will put your Admin username as the User in the top blank in the dialog box.
If you are NOT an Admin User, it asks for BOTH the Admin Username (in the top blank in the box) and the Admin password (in the bottom blank in the box).
This has NOTHING to do with your Apple-ID username or password. This refers to your Account on your local Mac, only.

It's been awhile since I installed anything but I suspect that it is asking for the password you use when logging into your Mac.
