I already de- and reinstalled CS3 more than 5 times.
What can I do?

I am having this same issue returning the error message:
AMT Subsystem Failure
The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall or call support.
I have run through all suggestions I could find in this forum and others with no luck. Including this article: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402004&sliceId=2.
I have restarted the FLEXnet Licensing server but still get error when I attempt to open any cs3 app.
All CS3 programs were running fine until last week on Vista. Please help!

  • Photoshop error Creative Suite 5.5

    I recently installed Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Premium (for windows.)
    While running Photoshop, I will get the following error message:
    The instruction at "0X6963932b" referenced memory at "0X000000a0"  (or sometimes "0X00000980")
    The memory could not be "read"
    Click on OK to terminate the program.
    Click on CANCEL to debug the program.
    Then the program terminates.  The only way I can start Photoshop again is to reboot the computer.
    I've run diagnostics on the memory and everything checks out okay.
    I also find that when I shut down my computer after Photoshop terminates I get an error telling me that CARDREADERLOOKUP.exe is still running and I have to terminate the program before the computer will shut down.  I don't know if that's related to the problem or not.
    When I look at the programs listed in Adobe Creative Suites (from the Start menu), Photoshop is not listed.
    Any suggestions?  Should I re-install?

    I also find that when I shut down my computer after Photoshop terminates I get an error telling me that CARDREADERLOOKUP.exe is still running and I have to terminate the program before the computer will shut down. 
    Sounds like the issue. Check your device manager and disable this device. photoshop is probably using it because it is listed as a TWAIN or WIA device and the driver is flakey. Also try to suppress the auto-start of that reader tool. I'm reasonably sure it realyl isn't necessary and just a quick-access helper kind of thing...

  • Crazy Software issues seem to point to Adobe Creative Suite 5

    Using Windows Vista Home Premium. INtel Core i7 CPU. 6 G RAM, 64 Bit operating system, Creative Suite 5
    I started having trouble...weird things happening on my computer a year ago. Silverlight plug in crashes. Adobe Acrobat crashes. Firefox crashes. Word crashing repeatedly. Keyboard skipping every 3-4th letter or freezing. Mouse having a mind of its own, needing extra coaxing to go where I wanted it to go.
    I have a custom built PC. I've taken in to the guys that built it to check for viruses. They found some but no big deal. They didn't fix my problems. The strangeness happens randomly so I limped a long for a few months and then get frustrated and try to solve the problem again.
    I have replaced my keyboard/mouse combo and that slowed down the issues but they still persisted randomly. I have uninstalled all adobe products and reinstalled...no luck. Word crashed more than anything at that time so I uninstalled and reinstalled Microsoft Office. No improvement.
    I have purchased a new graphics card...no help. When photoshop started doing weird things, like when I crop, changing the resolution of my document to 1, or no longer letting me re-size anything, freezing and crashing multiple times in a day, I took to the last resort.
    I had the whole operating system uninstalled and reinstalled wiping my computer clean.  The computer guys said this would fix my problems 100% certainty. As soon as I got it home, the keyboard was possessed again! I unplugged all hardware except monitor and (new) wireless mouse/keyboard and the only software installed was Office and Creative Suite. I still had problems. Firefox and Photoshop are freezing and crashing all the time. What else can I try????
    My suspicion is that Adobe is just not playing nice with my system or any other application.
    Please help.
    Angela

    My suspicion is that Adobe is just not playing nice with my system
    Unlikely. Whatever you see are probably driver issues with your USB and keyboard controller or even possibly physical damage on the plugs or controller chip, including voltage issues due to a poor power supply or a fused resistor or capacitor on the motherboard.

    I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro on my computer and my installation of Adobe Design Premium CS3 is not functioning. I cannot start it to get in and deactivate the Creative Suite installation.

    if you're using the same computer hardware to reinstall your cs3, you don't need to deactivate first.
    but if there's a significant hardware change you can ask adobe support for an activation count reset. contact adobe support by clicking here and, when available, click 'still need help', https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

    Hi. I am running Windows 8.1 on a  64 bit Toshiba Satellite P70-A laptop with 16Gb of RAM. I have installed Adobe Creative Suite 6 - Master Collection. All is fine except for Adobe Acrobat X. It runs OK  for a while, but then suddenly it won't work. I uninstall it, re-boot and re-install again, bit the same process repeats itself and once again I have to uninstall and re-install again. I don't know if windows update interferes with it? Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is it fixable?

    I think you'd be much better off asking in the Acrobar forum, Acrobat

    I had to restore my iMac from Time Machine. After the restoration all programs are functioning except my Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium. When I start any program in the suite the error message, "Licensing for this product has stopped working." I restarted the computer and tried again to run Photoshop and the same error message appeared. The message was followed by a message that stated that I needed to contact Adobe technical support and mention Error: 150.30. I need Adobe technical support to provide me a solution for my problem so I can continue using my Adobe products installed on my computer.

    Unfortunately when Adobe products are restored from backup, especial CS4 and especially Mac, it breaks licensing.
    There is a python script included in the license recovery kit that should work if you are familiar with Terminal.
    If not, you must reinstall your CS4 suite.  You don't need to delete your preferences, so it should be the same as before.

  • I cannot download my adobe creative suit 5 design premium because it says my serial number is invalid but Adobe customer care said it valid...i don't understand why it still not working??

    I have upload my Adode Creative Suit 5 design premium on my first apple mac pro successfully.,i purchased in a retail shop few year ago...!as it have two use of the CD when installing ..i'm trying to install it on my other apple mac pro..but this time it is say that the serial number is not valid..i got it checked by Customer care, they said it is valid and should be working when set up on my laptop..can someone pose help as i don't know who to turn now to find answers...many thanks
    Kind Regards

    Hi Rich,
    The cause of this can be multiple. First of all be sure you use the original CD + serial. In case of a download same story. Try to find out if the installed version match the language of the serial (they need to match). Last but not least: Check if you use a upgrade version, if so it might be needed to fill 2 serials.
    Can you share a screen of the error (please hide the SN )

  • I installed a new SSD drive in my computer and now Adobe Creative Suite Web Premium says I don't have a license. I have license. It was very expensive. I am disabled now, and I need this software working.

    I installed a new SSD drive in my computer and now Adobe Creative Suite Web Premium says I don't have a license. I have license. It was very expensive. I am disabled now, and I need this software working. Adobe Acrobat has been a primary tool for accommodating memory problems after a brain injury. (A car ran me down while I was out getting exercise.) I installed the SSD because I needed my management of PDF files to run faster. I called tech support for help when the software first stopped working, but they needed me to give them a number from my original disks. Because of my disability, I've been having someone come in to clean, and the shelves where I kept my software packages were cleared. I've been hunting for them ever since, but I can't look for them myself for very long at a time. Today I finally found them, but now I can't seem to contact tech support. What happened? I don't want to delete my old files because I need the setup to remain unchanged, because I don't do well with changes. I think all I should need is to have someone located the license file on drive E: and move it to wherever it is needed on the SSD drive, but I don't know what to look for.

    Tech support is not normally available on weekends.  You should contact them as soon as the weekend passes and pick up where you left off with them.

  • Installing Adobe Creative Suite - NEW 21" late 2012 iMac - Don't want to buy superdrive!! How can I trick the computer into thinking the USB drive is a CD?

    I've got a new late 2012 imac, but I realize yes it doesn't come with a compact disc drive. I have an Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 install disc with all the information included (serial). I copied the contents of the CD into a USB Flash drive, but I can't get it to install because it is looking for the content on the CD. Since I don't want to have to buy the external Superdrive!! How do I convince the computer into installing adobe via the files on the flash drive?

    Your question makes perfect sense to me. I would contact Adobe Supptrt Services from the contacts listed here:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/install-creative-suite-5-cs5.html
    You will need adobe current serial number.
    I hope you'll post here with your results. I've interested know what happens.

    I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Pro due to Windows 8 malfunction with starting up. I am trying to reinstall as I am an owner of the Creative Suite CS6 and I cannot access my serial number. I purchased the software in 2013 and never registered i, apparently. When directed on Adobe's site to access the serial number, it takes me to an outside 3rd party site, which I tried but it does not actually work. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hey beccac85068042,
    Adobe will provide you the serial number only if you are a registered user.
