Adobe CS5 Trial Setup failure on Mac. Help!

Ok so I've been trying to download the trial for Adobe CS5 Photoshop and have run into some problems on my Mac. Here's where I am in the download process. I went to the site and clicked the download now button for the trial. I open the adobedownloadassistant.dmg on my desktop and double click the install adobe download assistant. I watch the bar on the adobe download assistant install go to completion and then it closes out. Now, from what I understand, at this point the download assistant should pop up and I'm supposed to sign in with my ID but the problem is that this window never pops up.
I noticed one time that it said that a version of adobe AIR could not be found and suggested updating. I went to the Adobe site then and downloaded the latest version of Adobe AIR. When I try to install it I get an error message saying that the Adobe AIR installer application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found. This is also the same error message I got with the CS5 installer assistant.
Here's a picture of the error message I get when trying to open the adobe AIR installer. Seems like a catch-22 to me.
I'm running Mac OS X Lion on a 15" 2.2 ghz quad core intel core i5
Somebody help please!

  • Adobe CS5 trial error

    I downloaded the Adobe CS5 trial on an iMac, and tried to move it over to a 13inch MacBook Pro using Snow Leopard. I transferred it using an external hard drive. When I tried to put it on my Mac, it told me configuration error (error:6). Any thoughts as to why I can't get it to work?
    Thanks in advance.

    It's not possible, plain and simple. Once the licensing system has locked down, only a proper serial number can unlock it and that means you buy the software.

    1. Navigate to Dreamweaver CS6 Downloads page : http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=dreamweaver

  • Adobe Muse 'Trial initialisation failed' on Mac

    Hello,
    I am interested in trying Adobe Muse, however whenever I try to begin my trial I get an error message that says 'Trial initialisation failed, your trial has expired'. I have never used the software before, and I have tried creating another Adobe ID, I have installed it on another system and I still get the same error.
    I am running Mac OS X 10.7.5 on a late 2006 iMac.
    All help is greatly appreciated.

    I have the same problem with a same Mac OS X 10.7.5 in our company
    Muse Trial was instal on one of our Mac, trial was over, then we get instal to another Mac with new Adobe ID, but he said on last step after login ID that 'Trial initialisation failed, your trial has expired. as if we install muse before...and nothing helps. we try delete OOBE and MBLStore and Adobe muse, reinstal adobe air, but nothing ...it looks like its blocked with our global ip, but it can not be. Why he (Adobe Air?/Muse) think that we had already instal and over Muse Trial on another machine (Mac), when we did not do this? like all our Mac is the same one.

    If anyone from Adobe is reading this, please pause my trial. I have an email saying my 30 days has started, but the program isn't even installed yet.
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    If anyone from Adobe is reading this, please pause my trial.
    It's not possible, so forget about it. As for the rest - reinstall Service Pack 3 and possibly other components like the MSInstaller runtime, .NET runtimes or even MS visual Studio 2010 Express. You have something with your DLLs being wrong and hence the installer is messing up operating system detection. Additioanlly, apply any AMD-specific patches and update all your drivers, this is also critical.

  • Adobe Muse trial doesn't install (Mac)

    After retrieving the Muse trial downloader from here: [Link Removed - BT] I can't complete the install.  I double-click the Setup app, enter my admin credentials, and...nothing happens.  No other apps open, nothing installs...absolutely nothing happens.
    Phone and chat support are both worthless, directing me here instead since *apparently* they only care about their paying customers.  It's disgusting.  I'm evaluating their product in order to potentially become a paying customer.  You'd think they would want to help me in any way possible...
    So, rant aside, I appreciate any advice anyone can provide.  I've found other links to a "beta" version - is the trial something different, or would I be better off pursuing the beta?
    Thanks in advance.

    My sincere apologies for the confusion! Your frustration is certainly warranted! Here is what happened: there was a cross-team communication mix-up and it caused a bogus trial version of Muse to be posted on that link you referenced. As you correctly noticed, the installer doesn't function at all! We're working to get that cleaned up ASAP.
    For now, here is the link you need to be using get the latest version of Muse.
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/muse.html
    Let me know if you have any problems getting it working from that link.
    Thank you for taking the time to report this problem! Again, my apologies!

  • CS5 Trial Download Issue

    I receive the following error/warning from my Anti-Virus when attempting to download the Adobe CS5 trial:
    Gateway Anti-Virus Alert
    This request is blocked by the SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus Service. Name: ArchSMS.FI (Trojan)

    I just did the download of Photoshop CS5.1 on a test setup and found no problems using Avast Pro antivirus.  It's either a false positive by your system, or malware so new it's not recognized by others yet.  As Adobe is quite careful, I'd say it's likely the former situation.
    It would be a good idea to report it to SonicWALL.  They would be able to confirm whether it's a false positive.

  • Error installing adobe CS5 MC from flashdrive

    Hi!
    I'm having some trouble converting a network deployment package of CS5 Master Collection to run from a flashdrive.
    The package is created using AAMEE and over the network it deploys fine(at least after deactivating UAC on windows 7). I have created a .bat file that runs the .msi file with the /quiet operator. Like this:
    @c:\windows\system32\msiexec.exe /i "Adobe CS5\Build\Adobe CS5 MC Full.msi" /quiet /leomx "c:\windows\it\log_Adobe_x64_full.txt"
    I was thinking this should also work running from an flashdrive(usb stick), but it only runs for 3min before it shuts down. The log reads following(highlighting what I think is the problem):

  • CS5 Trial uninstall vs. Elements 10 shared files

    Hello,
    I am using Adobe PhotoShop Elements 10 and Adobe Premiere Elements 10 on my PC. I got the installation CD set as a bundle bonus from the camera reseller on purchase of my digital camera.
    From previous time, I also have Adobe Creative Suite Trial Version 5 (CS5 Trial) on my PC.
    Now, I want to uninstall Adobe CS5 Trial and keep both Elements only.
    Can I uninstall the CS5 Trial without affecting the Elements installations? I am affraid of some shared files (fonts, libraries, etc.) which can be missing for Elements after uninstallation of CS5 Trial.
    Please let me know.
    Thank you very much for your answer
    Marek

    yes, you can safely uninstall your cs5 trial using the adobe uninstaller.

    I have MAC OSX 10.5.8 and need to install adobe illustrator. I checked the compatibility and found that CS5 will work.Can any one help where i can find it. The trail version is fine with me as i just have to use it for couple of days till i get my mac book back from service. Can any one help me on this.

    You are welcome, ameronweb.
    To elaborate a bit, you may come across offers of a new/unopened/unregistered version, which is the simplest case (you would need a guarantee). Other cases require much detailed information (and a guarantee).
    If upgrading to 10.6.8 or higher is an option, you could use CS6.

Maybe you are looking for
