PS CS4 64-bit (in Web Premium CS4) on Win 7 PC.  I did a duplicate file check on my hdd and deleted dup files. Now I get "Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall.."

PS CS4 64-bit (in Web Premium CS4) on Win 7 PC.  I did a duplicate file check on my hdd and deleted dup files. Now when I try to run PS 64-bit I get "Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application." When I do this, it seems to install correctly until the very end, then it says "Installation Complete With Errors", and when I try to run I get the same 'component missing message'. What can I do? PS 32 bit runs fine. Some of the other applications ib Web Premium say the shortcut has been changed or removed. I appreciate your help...Thank you

Best advice I can think of is to uninstall and run the Clean Script from here.

    I tried opening PS and this message popped up 'Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory. Please reinstall the application.' I cannot find the Reinstall button?

    I followed these instructions but cannot find how to reinstall PS. When I click on the membership link the page displays as NOT BEING FOUND.
    Quit all applications. 
    In the Finder, navigate to the Photoshop application folder. 
    Do one of the following: 
    If the Locales folder is not listed within the application folder, then skip to Step 5.
    If the Locales folder is listed within the application folder, then drag the Locales folder to the Trash.
    Choose Finder > Empty Trash. 
    Start the installer for Photoshop or your edition of the Adobe Creative Suite. 
    If you purchased boxed software, then insert the installation DVD-ROM into your computer's DVD drive.
    If you purchased downloadable software from the Adobe Online Store, then double-click the disk image (.dmg) file or files that you downloaded. (If you no longer have the downloaded disk image file or files, then log in to your account at www.adobe.com/membership to download the installer.)

    Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application. This is what i am getting tying to open Photoshop Cs6???

    Renée in the future when removing Photoshop CC please utilize the uninstaller located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Please run the uninstaller and then reinstall.  If you continue to face difficulty reinstalling Photoshop CC then please see CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.

    Do as it says: Reinstall the program. Run the cleaner tool and let CC app do the magic.

  • Error "Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinsta

    I downloaded Photoshop Extended about a week ago... the second time I opened it, an error message came up saying "Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application."  So I uninstalled it, then re-intalled it.  I was able to open it successfully after that - and I used it once.  I have just gone to open it again and it is reading the same error.  This is very frustrating - why is it doing this?  I don't want to have to unintall and reinstall everytime I want to use it.  Please help

    I want to bump this topic, again. So far the clues I've found are that there may be problems when the program was installed in one user account, and used in a different one. Perhaps there is a language setting, too. Can anyone give tips on this error for Mac, specifically Lion OS?

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory,

    I need help! Cannot run photostop because it says the above.  Can't uninstall it either or download again.  Using a MAC.  Any ideas how to do this?

    Lovex7 what happens when you try to uninstall Photoshop using the uninstaller located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder?  What version of Photoshop are you trying to run?  Finally what version of Mac OS are you using?

    What version of Bridge and Photoshop and what platform? Mac or Windows?  I can point you to a downloadable installer.
    If the cdrom was damaged, it may be the problem.
    You would uninstall and use the CC/CS Cleaner to remove any remnants before reinstalling.

  • Own CS5, will not open, message says, "Some of the application components core missing from the Application Directory.  Please reinstall the application".  What do I do?

    What now?  Can't get a phone number  to contact Adobe???????????????

    Hey Cal do u have a windows box or apple? Do you have the compressed files from the original download or a backup or image of your computer? Last question for now-please describe the events that led up to the error message in your original question. Like " my girlfriend was mad at me and while I was cleaning up some photos in CS5 she cut the electric to my desktop!"
    there is a chance if its a windows box and its running the OS win7, win 8, win8.1 and the systems restore setting turned on that if you can remember the last time(date) that CS5 worked: restore it(the computer) to that date or before that date. Also is there are some other options if its a mac but i need to know the operating system version and other info as to what other software is on your machine plus similar info like sw such as mackeeper, boot camp. parallels that another adobe community member(Bo LeBeau ) alluded to.
    Provide me more info and i can/will help you! maybe even a way to minimize your cost of paying for adobe support if that what you wanna do.
    Another vector that may be worth the effort is: find out generally or exactly what components are missing/corrupted from the application core sometimes there can be confusion(zip software posing as malware) or use in the mac and windows world of wrong procedures and use of decompression of compressed( ie winzip vs winrar) files that lead to CS5 working and all of a sudden not working. Last even installers can get flaky over time. So i know you wanna handle this so u can use CS5; but I need some more info. Have a good one! later and greater!

  • Elements 11, getting this when trying to access editor, "Some of the application components are missing from application directory. Please reinstall."

    Reinstall software. Continue to get the same message. Plus, A required application library failed to load and the product cannot continue. I have been using this program for about 11 months without any problems. This just started.

    Which Photoshop version are you using?  If it's CS3 - CS6 then you can download it from Adobe and install it properly.  No need to rebuy it, just put in your serial number:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?platform=Windows&product=39
    If it's CC, then you just get it from the main site.

    If you can, I would put all the files back where you moved them from, and uninstall the program properly.  Otherwise you'll have file remnants laying around.  Also, you're unclear if you just moved it to another location on the same computer, or a new computer.  If it's a new computer then you need to deactivate the old computer as you only have two seats to use:

  • How can I get iTunes to recognize the apps that are missing from the library screen but still on the machine??

    My apps are not showing-up in the iTunes library but they are present in the apps folder. How can I get iTunes to recognize their presence?
    Library-Apps-All (only three of several hundred appear).
    Apps are still present in Users-Music-Mobile Applications
    I am running iTunes 11.0, OS X 10.8.2 on a Mac Pro. 
    Ran Disk Utility, Techtool, Disk Warrior and then reinstalled Mountain Lion, updated it and repaired permissions. No change.
    There is a file that says 'iTunes Library (damaged), which is the iTunes Database file. How can that file be re-created?
    Any technical help on replacing that file with a new, fresh one would be appreciated!

    It has always been very basic to maintain a backup of media and other important files.  If you chose to reinstall the OS without having a backup, well that just is not smart.
    If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, iTunes purchases can be redownloaded via iCloud.  Simply log into the iTunes store, select purchases, purchase history and redownload the content.
    If you are not in the US.... well, seems you just learned and important and possibly expensive lesson.

    You've done something to your system, or it's possibly gotten a malware infection.
    You can't even reinstall Photoshop?  Have you tried completely removing it, including running the Creative Suite Removal script? 
    How recently did it work?  Have you tried System Restore?
