Problem installing trial version of After Effects CS4

Hi,
I'm trying to install the trial version of After Effects CS4 on Windows Vista Ultimate Service Pack 1 32-bit Operating System, Processor 2.4GHz, RAM 4GB.
At the initializing stage it gets to 90% on the 'Checking System Profile...' dialog box, something flashes and then it freezes.
I've downloaded it a second time in case of corruption.
I've rebooted several times and retried it with no other applications running.
I've run updates on any existing adobe products I have.
Any ideas?  I've never had problems installing adobe products before.
Thanks.

Not your fault, known issue.
a) Download the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility and install it
b) Download the CS4 Cleanup Utility from Adobe's support pages
c) Run the CS4 Cleanup, electing to remove all debris from your failed install
d) Manually uninstall all instances of Adobe AIR products (Acrobat.com, Adobe Media Palyer) using Add or Remove Programs
e) Launch the Microsoft Installer Cleanup and look for instances of Adobe Installer 2.0. Have them removed. Optionally, have it remove other Adobe stuff that may have been left over from CS4.
f) Try to install CS4
Note: The cleanup utilities will not remove anything physically, only clean out the installer, so they pose no danger to your system. You will only lose the ability to uninstall those programs from Add or Remove Programs.

  • Unable to launch trial version of After effects: Mac OS X

    I am unable to install the trial version of After Effects CS4. Downloaded 4 times with both Safari and Firefox. I get to the Adobe After Effects CS4 folder. The setup icon does nothing. Launching the bootstrapper.dmg file gets me to a folder with an Ri icon. Clicking on that yields an error message: The operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -10822). I am running OSX 10.5.8 on a MacBook Pro [pre unibody). I feel really dumb biut what am I not doing?

    Do you run as admin (in Mac terms User can manage computer in your user profile options)? That might be something to look into (though the primary user always is admin). Short of that, the usual: Other Adobe apps could be blocking the way and require to be uninstalled or "cleaned" using the CS3/ CS4 Clean Scripts/Utilities from the support pages.

  • Trial version of After Effects - which do I choose?

    I currently own the Design and Web Premium pacakge, but wanted a trial version of After Effects to complete a motion graphic I am creating.
    The trial offer includes the choice of; a free trial download or to join the Creative Cloud and download now (Recommended - it's free).
    I am a little confused as to what it means, to my knowledge the Creative Cloud is through subscription only and isn't offered for free. So I just wondered what it meant?
    If I choose to join and download that trial will I then have to pay an annual subscription? - When I clicked this option no card details were requested and I do not have any linked to my Adobe ID.
    Somebody help please?

    I currently own the Design and Web Premium pacakge, but wanted a trial version of After Effects to complete a motion graphic I am creating... If I choose to join and download that trial will I then have to pay an annual subscription?
    First things first: you say you want AE to complete a motion graphic.  This would lead people to believe that you've used AE before.  Have you?  It's a yes/no question, and a "How tough can it be to learn?" response counts as a no.
    Second question: if you DO download the 30-day trial, do you intend to continue using AE, assuming you already know how to use it?
    The reasons for the questions:
    AE contains many, many hidden pitfalls for the uninitiated that obliterate the tight deadlines of those who think, "How tough can it be to learn?", and those same pitfalls easily can extend a reasonable learning period beyond 30 days for busy individuals.

  • I try to install the trial version of After Effects and it gives me an error telling me to restart even after I restart.

    I try to install the trial version of Adobe After Effects but when it goes to the installer, it gives me an error telling me to restart my laptop. Even after I restart my laptop it gives me the error. Help?

    We can't know. You have not provided any system information or the exact error. Most commonly this happens when a security tool is blocking the installers or you run with insufficient user privileges, but that's all we can kinda guess here.

  • CC won't install latest version of After Effects

    For some reason CC is only installing version 12.0, which is incompatible with Mavericks.
    In the desktop drop-down menu it is saying After Effects is up to date but when I check the version it is saying 12.0 and also won't launch due to it being this version.
    I have also tried using the manual update, which doesn't work either.

    I have now found a soltuion. I know a lot of people have had this problem so I hope this works for others:
    Step 1. Delete or rename the  <Startup Disk>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AAMUpdaterInventory/1.0/AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat
    Step 2. Download and install the manual update from Adobe's download page: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5704

    Hi KerdonC,
    After downloading VisioSingleImage.exe from the following website, we can install it directly on your PC.
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-visio-premium-2010
    Then you need to input trial product key to activate Visio 2010 trial during Setup Wizard. We can find Visio 2010 on Start menu after installation.
    If there is anything else that I can do for you regarding this issue, feel free to post back.

  • Is it possible to download older versions of After Effects?

    I downloaded the adobe master collection CS6 trial, and most of the products were able to download just fine except a few, some of which I didn't really care about, but After Effects was one of them unfortunately and that was one of the reasons I was downloading the collection. I looked at the system requirements and discovered that the only version my laptop could handle was CS4. Is it possible to download the trial version of this without downloading it from shady sites? I just need to try it out, although it would be nice if it was free now.
    Thanks in advance.
    Brendon.

    You can download a 30 day time limited Trial version of After Effects CS4 here. After 30 days it will cease to function without a CS4 serial number, which you cannot purchase now if you don't already have one.
    http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
    Ensure that you follow the Very Important Instructions on that page first otherwise the links will not work.
    You can no longer purchase After Effects CS4 and it definitely is not available for free even though it's a superseded version. So you'll only get 30 days out of it.
    I take it you're trying it because you have a 32 bit system?

  • Does After Effects CS4 Trial have all of the features?

    I was wondering if there is any difference apart from the 30 day limit, in the Trial version and the Full version of Adobe After Effects CS4? Is there any features that are in the Full version, but not the Trial?
    Thanks

    The After Effects CS4 trial version lacked the third-party plug-ins and several codecs.
    The After Effects CS5.5 and later trial versions do not have this problem.
