ADE 2.0 completes download but doesnt install or launch on new computer using windows 8 os

I just get the message in the yellow box that the installer download has completed but nothing else happens

Which operating system?
If Vista, see hint at top of the forum:
If you are installing Adobe Digital Editions on Windows Vista please see Installing Adobe Digital Editions 2.0 in Windows Vista - http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-editions/kb/installing-digital-editions -20-windows.html for a workaround to allow the installation.
If XP, try installing V1.7.2 instead.
A lot of people have been having similar issues on XP with ADE2.0 (as well as several other problems with it as well).
I suggest installing the older version 1.7.2 which seems more reliable.
Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

Problems downloading Photoshop Elements 9 software to my new computer using Windows 8

Can someone please assist me in getting my software to work on my new computer.
I have installed the disc...... almost at the end of installation the computer froze and eventually after a couple of hours, I removed the disc and interupted the installation. I switched the computer off and restarted. I then tried to uninstall.... but then was prompted to put the disc back in to unistall, but the program looked like it was trying to install again!
Eventually after waiting for about half an hour, nothing was happening and i have given up. I just want to use my software!
i then went into the Control Panel>All control panel Items>troubleshooting> selected> system and security> fix problems with windows update - now I can actually open the photoshop version.... but when I trying to do something to the photo, an error appeared and shut down the photoshop!
Basically can I use this software with my new windows 8 computer? If not is it possible to download and pay for an upgraded version so I can use with Windows 8?
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Hi There
Thanks for your reply. The error messages i can find are as follows:-
ERROR 1705. A previous installation for this product is in progress. You must undo the changes made by that installation to continue. Do you want to undo those changes?
YES or NO
then I found this

Files that help describe the problem:
C:\Users\Julie Greig\AppData\Local\Temp\WER2383.tmp.appcompat.txt
C:\Users\Julie Greig\AppData\Local\Temp\WER2931.tmp.mdmp
but when I map to the above locations they don't exist in my view!
This is very frustrating
I have just done what you suggested to turn off the UAC and turned off the security. when you say run as admin - what do you mean?
Thanks again for any response.

I have downloaded the most recent itunes on my new computer with windows 8 but a message pops up saying "the itunes library.itl file is locked, on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this file. How do I fix?

I have downloaded the most recent itunes on my new computer with windows 8 but when I attempt to get in I get this message "The itunes library.itl file is locked, ona locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file." How do i fix this?

Repair iTunes Security Permissions
Right-click on your main iTunes folder and click Properties, then go to the Securitytab and click Advanced. Use the Change Permissions... button grant to your account (or the Users group) and SYSTEM full control of this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to Replace permissions entries... which will repair permissions throughout the library. When complete switch to the General tab, click in the Read-only check box to clear it, then click Apply.
If you don't have the option to change the permissions then use the Owner tab and Edit... button to take ownership from an account with administrator privileges. Tick the option to Replace owner on subcontainers and objects.
Repeat with the media folder if it isn't stored inside the main iTunes folder.
If you've brought over the library from another computer you may also want to remove any "mystery" identities (S<string of dashes & digts>) that have come over from the old computer...
The images above are from Windows 7. Hopefully the system isn't too different in Windows 8.

Can CS5 be downloaded to a new computer using Windows 8.1?

I have a new computer which uses Windows 8.1, and I am trying to download CS5. According to the system requirements, Windows 7 is needed. Can this be circumvented or is there an adaption of some sort to get it done?

Yes, it should run fine on Windows 8.1. Install from your disc or you can find the installers here: Download CS5 products. Either way, have your serial number ready.

Can't install Acrobat 8 on New Computer w/Windows 7 64bit

The install hangs near to completion when tryng to load "Reader for Word.smrd"
It says "Error 1305. Error ready from file C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobata 8.0\PDFMaker\Office\Reader for Word.smrd. Verify that file exists and that you can access it."
Please help if you can. Thanks!

You may be somewhat successful if you update AA8. 64bit systems required at least AA8.2 under XP as I recall. Some folks have been successful with AA8 on Win7, not sure about the 64bit version. However, it is not supported and you will likely run into something along the way that fails. Since PDFMaker is mentioned, that will lilkely not work anyway with a new machine. I am assuming that you probably have OFFICE 2010 with the new system that requires AA X.

How do I install Photoshop on my new computer using my original installation disc?

I get a message that I must check a box that indicates it will search my hard disc. Of course, the new hard disc has no record of installation. It seems be geared for installing an upgrade.

Which version of Photoshop are you trying to install?
Upgrade or full version?
Which operating system?

How do I install CS3 on a new computer using my CS3 install disk?

The installation process for CS# says my Page Maker 6.5 serial number is incorrect even though the product lists it.

You’ll need to call Adobe for this. Nobody here can help with that type of issue.
Try an online chat first.

Installing CS5 on my new computer

I have just replaced my computer with CS5 installed with a new computer (Win 7). How do I install CS5 on my new computer using the existing license I have?

You will want to install the software from your installation media. Do you no longer have access to your DVDs or did you originally purchase a download? If you choose the download option then the software should be under your account. You can find details on how to download the software from your account at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1006208?tstart=0&promoid=KBHJQ.

I have bought OS X Lion 1.7 in august 2011 in Apple Store but I never installed (I had download in pause). I have tried to complete download but Lion 1.7 is not in disposable in Italian Store. How is possible for me update my Snow Leopard?

I have bought OS X Lion 1.7 in Apple Store on august 2011 but I never installed it (I had download in pause). To day I have tried to complete download but Lion 1.7 is not more disposable in Italian Store. How is possible update my Snow Leopard to Lion or (better) Mountain Lion?

Ciao Giampo,
As you're running Snow Leopard and you have a MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo, you CAN upgrade directly to Mountain Lion so long as you have at least 2GB of Memory and 7GB of available space on your hard drive. So, once you check that your MacBook Pro meets these requirements you can download Mountain Lion from the App Store.
I'm not sure, but I think you will have to pay €15.99 for the upgrade even though you never managed to completely download your upgrade to Lion.
