CS4 is the Worse release of Adobe | Installation failure

Dreamweaver CS4 installation is really disappointing. I tried installing it multiple time but i always get the below error. I have downloaded the trial verison of DWcs4 and it never gets installed properly. Screenshot is attached.
Many people are facing the same problem, but there is no proper solution for it. I tried installing about 10times by folnowing the procedures given in the below URLS and tried for 3days but no use;

Uninstalled CS4 and ALL Adobe products
Uninstalled CS4 using MS Clean Uninstall (msiuu2)
Uninstalled using msiuu2 and WinCS4 Cleanupscript
Bad of Adobe to launch the applications that are not properly tested. I dont see any sense in purchasing the Adobe tools because if trial doesnt work then full version also doesnt work...

I then discovered that every time I wanted to change the colour of text I had to go through that CSS thing.
DW is trying to teach you to use CSS for styling *all* elements on a page, and that includes font size and colours etc.,
Using Page Properties to create a basic CSS style sheet
http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/505/cpsid_50576.html
Worse, I then discovered DWCS4 does not seem to readily support tables and any editing of my tables from both my Claris Home Page site and my Front Page site resulted in a big piggy mess.
DW does support tables - so not sure what you mean here.  It certainly is not a good option to try and edit the pages in another editor, you end up with all sorts of coding errors and bloated code.
Next I noticed CS4 did not FTP any updates to my sites, other than initially, and no amount of persuasion seemed to fix it.
Did you try and connect via another FTP program to see if it was a DW problem or just a connection problem.  Something file Filezilla or CuteFTP for testing.
The other thing to keep in mind is whether the server space on the host has been all used up - sometimes this can happen without the user knowing about it... so everytime you try and upload files, it appears to work but the files are not updated.  The other thing could be that the ISP is caching the pages and it takes a while for them to update globally.
A few people have solved any DW weirdness by re-creating their personal configuration folder:
Close Dreamweaver, locate the personal configuration folder, and rename it.
When you restart Dreamweaver, it should create a new configuration folder with all the program defaults.  
For details of how to find the configuration folder, see this page in the Dreamweaver FAQ.
You may want to take a look at the other articles for help on installation problems with DW.
Anyway, the support person directed me to CS4 Cleanscript which will not download at all! The CS3 version downloads OK as does the Mac version, and I have tried downloading from Firefox and Chrome, as well as IE8, with Firewalls,
Again, could be an ISP thing, I'm in Australia and managed to download the script a little while ago using Firefox.  If you Private Message me with an email address, I can send you a link to download it, or send the zip to you via email  - though it is quite a large file size.

  • Is illustrator the worse program of Adobe?

    Why Illustrator has not provide an update for over 3 Years?
    The last 2 version of Illustrator CS3 and CS4 came with critical bugs but Adobe has not provide an update. People keep saying they have to go back to CS2 to do the job that CS3 or CS4 cannot do.
    Why other programs like Photoshop have a lot of updates, but Illustrator does not?

    As far as I remember, this forum has always been the place to post more generally about multiple applications and across applications.
    And I believe it is more likely to get  answers here than in the Illustrator forum.
    I have no answer.

  • Failed to Install The New Preview Build. Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80246007: FBL_AWESOME1501 9926 Professional.

    Hello,
    I'm having issues upgrading my Windows 10 Technical Preview installation build 9879 to a newer build that's become available late January 23rd.
    I am installing the new upgrade in a Hyper-V virtual machine and get the following error:
    Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later. 0x80246007
    What could be the problem?
    Previously I've had messages that Windows cannot be upgraded on a computer with less than 2 Gbyte of RAM. That's a Hyper-V VM with dynamic memory and I was highly surprised to see this error; never had this before. Had to set 2048 Mbytes as a minimum memory
    for this VM. Now that I have this 80246007 error code.
    When looking up System log, the following error messages are listed multiple times:
    Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0x80246007: FBL_AWESOME1501 9926 Professional.
    The errors are returned for the Event ID 20 by WindowsUpdateClient
    in task category Windows Update Agent..
    I reviewed the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability
    registry key as suggested in Windows
    Insider stuck on build 9841 - "No new preview build was found", and here is what it shows:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Applicability]
    "BranchName"="fbl_awesome1501"
    "ThresholdRiskLevel"="low"
    "ThresholdOptedin"=dword:00000001
    Note, when attempting to install the downloaded update from a native boot, installation starts with no errors.
    However, since setup is not supported for a natively booted VHD files, it does not proceed further showing a message that installation on virtual drives is not supported.  
    Looks like Setup is having problems installing in a Hyper-V virtual machine.
    Possibly, some ESD files got corrupted during downloading? Is it possible to remove them and re-download missing files? (I, however, noticed that Windows seems to re-download upgrade files after you restart 9879 and attempt to check for a new build.
    Any clue why installing under VM causes 9926 to fail?
    Thank you in advance.
    Well this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given...

    Hi,
    According to the error message, this problem seems like update package installation failed during system upgrade.
    You can try to remove ESD file which locate at boot of C drive and upgrade the system again for test.
    On the other hand, make sure the system 9879 installed all Windows pushed updates before system upgrade.

  • Adobe Installation Failure

    Hello,
    Over the past few weeks I've encountered problems with the Adobe Reader installer. I've experienced this issue on several machines that are completely fresh installs of Windows.
    During the installation process I've encountered an error in the Adobe Reader installer that reads "Invalid Command Line Argument". I've searched all over the place and cannot find any solutions to this error. I also want to make absolutely clear that I am not trying to install Adobe Reader via command line. I don't even know how. I'm just running the install link on the main Adobe downloads page.
    All systems are running Win 7 Pro x64 OEM with 4+ GB RAM and Core I3's. I have not yet installed AntiVirus on the machines and Java has been installed prior to Adobe install. I have had no other issues installing other software before or after I first encountered the errors with Adobe Reader.
    Please help!
    Thanks.

    The installer from Inayal's link is an offline installer; the entire software is downloaded before the installation begins.
    The standard installer is a "download helper"; it will download the software during the installation process.  There are a number of things that can go wrong with that, so it's far safer to use the offline installer.

    I had all my software, including my ‘Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium’ removed from my MacPro (OSX 10.10.2) by a Computer technician after I had inadvertently installed some malware.
    Now I can’t reinstall my CS4 because the installer software wants me to identify the product from which I am upgrading, but mine isn’t on the list. The old product from which I am upgrading is called ‘Adobe Design Collection’. Furthermore, it has 4 serial numbers (one each for Photoshop, InDesign, Acrobat and Illustrator), not just one, as the installer requires.
    I know this can be done, as I have had it working for a long time. Am I doing something wrong now?

    Contact support be web chat and have them generate a working temporary serial/ challenge code for the install.

  • How can I download the trial version of Adobe Premiere Pro CS4

    Can anybody tell me how can I download Adobe premiere Pro CS4 trial version for windows 7 English.

    This is a forum. None of the users here -at least not to my knowledge - are Adobe professional
    Ninety-nine point nine percent correct. We are blessed with a few Adobe employees here, unlike some fora, but those folk are probably at NAB right now. Also, they are in other departments, so would have to walk "down the hall," or make a call, just as we would.
    When it gets to issues on licensing, installation, etc., we're pretty much at a loss. Most of us have never encountered such issues, and only know what we have read in others' threads, when they have bothered to report back. Even then, that is third-hand info.
    Last time that I had an Adobe installation issue was AI 3, IIRC. My upgrade version did not have the old database of S/N's. Mine was 00-000-003, and things had changed drastically. One call to Adobe, and a total time of about 5 mins. (including hold time), and I was given a number to plug in, and then everything installed perfectly. That was in about 1989, so is not quite contemporary. Still, that is the last and only first-person account that I can offer. Most here have zero personal experiences, as they came to the party later, and have just not had any such issues.
    We'd love to help, but just do not have the experience.
    Good luck,

  • Is there Full Version MSI installer package for the last version of Adobe Reader?

    Is there Full Version MSI installer package for the last version of Adobe Reader?
    Where can we find it?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    The full MSI installer for the latest 9.5.0 release is available at:
    ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.5.0/en_US/AdbeRdr950_en_US.msi
    However, there is no full MSI installer available for the latest 10.1.2 release, since it wasn't a single dot release. The Reader 10.1.2 installer is available as a MSP file which can be applied onto the Reader 10.1.0 or Reader 10.1.1 installation.
    You could also create an AIP for the latest 10.1.2 release, which would give you a single MSI installer along with the extracted files. Please have a look at the below mentioned document for more details on the same:

    My hard drive fried and had to be replaced. I'm trying to install CS4 from my original discs but keep getting this error message - "One or more of the required components of Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard failed to install correctly". A customer service rep gave me a link to download off the Adobe site, but when I try to open the file to run it, I get this error message - "A problem occurred extracting the archive".
    Can anyone help?

    Yep.  Nothing happens at all. Windows tries to execute the uninstaller, but I don't get any other screen and all activity stops for the MSI.  I monitored it in Process Monitor and the MSI executable appears, but is quickly ended, like it couldn't find anything or something.
    It's as if windows has a blank entry in Programs and Features, because it used to show the size of the Adobe application in the "Size" column.  Now it's just blank.  Link to screenshot below:
    http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/5006/screenshotcaf.jpg
    Note the install date.  That's when I was able to successfully reinstall it.  Now I can't even do that.  I should also mention I tried Revo Uninstaller.  It deleted one small registry key, but nothing changed.
    By the way, is the CS cleaner supposed to ask for a disc in the drive when you run it?  It refused to run unless I had one in it, so I used my install dvd.

    That will take you to 10.6.3.
