Creative Suite 5.5 Installation Issues

I purchased Creative Suite Production Premium 5.5 online and have the hard disk copy and serial number for it. When I open the setup.exe file through the disk a pop up saying initializing installer runs but once the bar fills up nothing else ever happens and I'm unable to actually install the programs I want. Thanks for any help you can give, I'm not exactly an expert on these types of things.

Can you check the solutions mentioned in this thread and let us know if you still have problems?

How can I re-install my Adobe Creative Suite 6? Installation was idle when installing AdobeHelp

I've problem re-install my Creative Suite 6 Master Collection for almost all applications. Installation was idle/stop when installing AdobeHelp, I've already tried to let the installation process ran for almost 24 hours, but it's still idle, so I cancelled the installation.
I've tried several times, and the result is still the same. It's idle when installing Adobehelp
And there is no feature/option in the installation menu to not installed Adobehelp.
Before re-install, I've used AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool, because I can't installed adobe illustration that I've not installed yet before and the installation crashed.
So I follow the instruction till I get suggestion to download AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool. and I ran it and choose all cleaning.
Now I still have problem to re-install my Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection.

System information:
Laptop Dell Vostro 14", Intel Pentium i5, Ram 4GB
OS Windows 7 Home Basic
Is that enough? do you need more information?
what kind of information?

Creative Suite CS 4 Licensing Issue

Hi there, a few month ago I installed the Creative Suite in a computer but then suddenly that computer OS got broken so I formatted and install a different OS and re-install the CS again, and then last week the computer died. So I bought a new one and I'm install the CS4 but now I get a message that I've already activated the suite in two pcs, so my question is how can I deactivate the license if the computer is broken? The hard disk is ok, but I have to format it in order to work in a new computer , what could I do in that case?
Thanks.
Michael

Try this method outlined by Adobe:
You can use the following method to initiate the Java runtime installation or confirm it is currently installed.
Go to Applications > Utilities > Java Preferences.
Open the Java Preferences.
If Java is not installed, you receive the following message:
“To open “Java Preferences," you need a Java runtime. Would you like to install one now?”

Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 installation

We would like to install creative suite on a home computer. We purchased it last year for the office and understand that we can have it on an off-site computer as well, but not be able to use them at the same time.

Sure. So what's the specific problem?

CS3/CS4 Creative Suites Web Premium installation conflicts

Scenario: I installed Creative Suite CS4 Web Premium using Windows XP Pro with SP3 and all the required computer specifications while I still had Creative Suite CS3 Web Premium on the computer. All went well for a while and then Flash CS3 started acting up by not being able to close the program without using Task Manager. I decided to uninstall Flash CS3 (deactivated it first) and tried reinstalling it.
Problem: I haven't been able to reinstall it. It seems that CS3 and CS4 use the same Shared Components and when the reinstall is completed, the install report shows that Flash CS3 was not installed as well as several Shared Components of CS4. During the reinstall of Flash CS3, the install occasionally asks for the CS4 disk, so I remove the CS3 disk from my primary DVD drive, insert the CS4 disk, click OK and then it asks for the CS3 disk again (ok, that's fine). At the end of the reinstall, the install report says the the shared components failed because the reinstall was looking for the CS4 shared components on my secondary DVD drive. So I then put the CS3 disk again in my primary DVD drive and put the CS4 disk in my secondary DVD drive and tried the reinstall again. It failed again and the report now says its looking for the CS4 shared components in my primary DVD drive.
Does anyone know what is going on here? Thank you for any help you may be able to supply.
You might ask why I don't just move completely to CS4 and the reason is that I'm trying to finish a project started in CS3. I could move completely to CS4, but I should be able to have both programs on my computer. At least, I would think so.

If the software is complaining about too many activations or unable to activate, call the number on the activation screen (or if none, Adobe Technical Support - phone number on Adobe web site), explain that your old computer broke and you were unable to deactivate the software, and that as such, you need another activation. They should be able to immediately assist you.           - Dov

CC 2014 Adobe suite and iCloud connection issue

Ever since I bought the new iCloud and Abobe Creative suite, I've had issues. The apps were working up until now, but the iCloud connection never worked. It kept scrolling. I noticed that when I would shut down my computer and relaunch, it would launch all the programs I had open and create a scrolling issue. Mind you, I still use the old CS5 programs and I am mainly using the CC for Dreamweaver right now. I've been have to force quit things in start-up. So, I don't know if this has to do with the iCloud issue or not.
The main thing that has happened today, is that my apps don't work now. It's telling that I need to change my firewall settings. Why now? Anyway, I'm frustrated for two reasons. I subject to working on things based on internet connection. This is why I keep my old apps. But, now I'm frustrated because of what is happening on start up and the fact that I can't my Dreamweaver app.
I'm in the middle of a project. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Nobody can tell you anything without proper technical details like what program you actually mean, where you save and so on.

PSE 11 Installer issues on Win 8

After launching the installer (from a downloaded file) I get the following error when extraction is almost complete: "A problem occured when extracting some files. Check available space on your computer and the write priveleges on the destination folder."
There is around 100GB available on the drive and there are read/ write permissions on the folder. This is a clean, recent install of Win 8. 64-bit.
I have re-downloaded the file (from Amazon and a trial from Adobe), same result.
Any help appreciated! Thanks

Installatie creative suite 3 design standaard op macbook lukt slecht deels.

Hallo,
In 2007 heb ik het pakket creative suite 3 design standard aangeschaft voor mijn mac. Nu we ook macbook unibody hebben aangeschaft wilde ik het pakket hierop installeren. Dit lukte maar voor een klein deel. Alleen adobe reader was gelukt. De programma's die ik nodig heb Indesign en photeshop lukte niet. Er stond in het overzicht. Installation failed. Verder geen info erbij.
Weet iemand waar dit aan kan liggen?
Heb verder even geen technische gegevens voorhanden. Hoop dat iemand mij een richting in kan duwen zodat ik het verder zelf uit kan zoeken.
Alvast bedankt voor uw reactie.
Groet,
Dennis

Dennis do you receive any specific errors during the installation process? If not then I would recommend reviewing your log files for the specific error message which is preventing the installation from completing. For information on how to locate and interpret the installation log files please see Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-installation-install-logs-cs3.html. You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

I purchased creative suite about 3 years ago for my macbook pro and have just bought an iMac and was wondering if and how to install creative suite onto my computer?

I am aware that I could not use both devices at the same time and from what I've read on here, once you've bought creative suite you may install it onto two devices. I'm just wondering how I go about installing onto my iMac, also with consideration that it is a older version of Creative Suite.
