Adobe download assistant won't even open

When trying to download the trial for Creative suite 6- design and media, my adobe download assistant just doesn't start up at all. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling that. I still get the same issue. I get a pop-up asking me to agree to the adobe air licence agreement but after pressing "I Agree", the software quits itself. So I can't even get my downloads to start. Any ideas how I can sort this?

Do you have other applications utilizing Adobe AIR successfully? Which operating system are you using?

Adobe Download Assistant won't complete download Acrobat Pro xi

Adobe Download Assistant won't complete download. It says downloading 501mb, and when it does that it goes around again and again. My download speed is about 7mb, so it shouldn't take more that a couple of hours at most...

Glyphodend I would recommend downloading Acrobat XI Professional directly from Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X.

No matter what I do -- I even followed all the steps in solution 1, excluding the mac one, numerous of times, but none would work!! It's so frustrating!! It would always give me the same thing over and over again: "Error communicating with Adobe.com (Error 101). Check your network connection, and restart Adobe Download Assitant." Bloody thing won't work even if everything is perfectly fine!! TT____TT Please help me!

Hi chocolateu,
Please refer the KB Doc to Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assistant.html
Alternatively you can try downloading from the direct download links available at : http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
But make sure you follow the important steps mentioned on the page before initiating the download.

Adobe Download Assistant won't let me sign in?

I was going to download and install a trial version of Adobe Master Collection CS6, however, whenever I try and sign in to the assistant using my email and password, it just hangs at the sign up screen and does nothing. I'm forced to terminate the process using Windows Task Manager. This is the case every time I open Adobe Download Assistant and attempt to download the trial. I've tried restarting my computer, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I have no clue what else I can try. What can I do to overcome this mess and download the trial?

Try disabling it any other security software temporarily until you determine which software is causing your difficulty. Alternately you can also download the install files directly by following the directions listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369.

Adobe download Assistant won't work.

Here's what happens I open adobe download assistant trying to download Adobe After Effects CS5.5 and I sign in I choose the folder for the download and then I wait for it to start downloading and it never does. It stays saying "Sign in with youy Adobe ID to continue"

I am using Windows 7 Home Premuim (64-bit) and had to download to the Desktop as the Adobe Employee stated. For whatever reason, the Adobe trials cannot be downloaded directly to Programs. IDK if this is something that will be fixed in the future? But until that time, Desktop or Users is the best (and conceivably--only) option.

Adobe Download Assistant won't let me accept the Terms and Conditions, freezes computer.

I downloaded the Adobe Download Assistant today, and when the Terms and Conditions pops up, it won't let me click the Accept or Quit button. I'm trying to accept so I can download the trial of Photoshop CS6/CS6 Extended and the program freezes after the Terms and Conditions comes up. Therefore, I can't accept and move on to download.
I tried going to the troubleshooting page for the program and it doesn't have anything relating to this problem.
Thanks in advance!

that would be a firewall setting so if your firewall is disabled, that setting is irrelevant.
you could use a direct download of ps cs6, if you follow all 7 steps: http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
if you see a dl error page, you did not follow all 7 steps.
you can also, uninstall adobe download assistant and try reinstalling.

Adobe Download Assistant won't install

I've tried downloading the Adobe Download Assistant but I get the following message, "The Installer File is Damaged please get a new one from the author". I've tried with Safari, Firefox and Chrome, cleared the cache each time but no luck. I'm attempting to download CS6 Design and Web Suite. Wasted hours, can anyone help???PLEASE! Thanks.
I'm running Mac OS 10.6.8 on a mac pro

SAME PRODUCT, SAME PLATFORM, & SAME ERROR MESSAGE
Sorry, an error has occurred.
The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged. Try obtaining a new installer file from the application author.
I called and talked to Bill the Tech Guy. Waste of Time!!!
What now??

Adobe Download assistant won't download CS5.1? error 106?

I click download and chose to put it in the program files (x86) -> adobe. I click ok then it doesn't do anything. i click download again and it says there is already a program waiting to be downloaded (error 106). I removed the assistant and tried again and got the same thing.

Soccermaverick25 I would recommend choosing a different location to download the install files too. You typically only want fully installed applications to be within Program Files (x86). It is also probable that you are having problems with being able to write to that location using the Adobe Download Assistant.
Beyond changing the download location I would also recommend the following steps:
Error 106 occurs if you have previously initiated a download and then started a second download of a different trial product before the first download finishes.
Click OK to dismiss the Error 106 message.
In the Adobe Download Assistant, check the products in your download queue. Click the Resume button if the original download is paused.

Adobe Download Assistant won't show other products

I have installed Adobe Download Assistant normally.
After I run the program, I know that the other products are gone except Acrobat Reader XI Pro.
My computer is Windows 7, with a 2GB RAM and an Intel Pentium Dual-core.

Jimmy97liew what Adobe software title are you wanting to download?

Adobe Download Assistant - Won't initiate download?

Okay, I've got the download assistant. I'm logged in on both the Adobe Website and the Adobe Download Assistant. I am running Windows 7 64bit. My internet connection is stable and everything is freshly updated.
If I attempt to initiate the download from ADA It asks me where I'd like to install it to, and then proceeds to not do anything. I don't get an install bar. I don't get any indication that it is doing anything beyond simply existing. If I attempt to try again I get the following message-
"There is already a product waiting to be added (Error 106). Please wait for the current operation to complete. If you believe you have recieved this message in error, you can restart Adobe Download Assistant and try to add the product again."
If I attempt to initiate the download from the Adobe Website I get one of two things:
If I'm not logged in on the Adobe Website, ADA asks me to log in and then I get the exact same thing as above including having to pick the product from the list as if I hadn't clicked the link on the website at all.
If I am logged in to the Adobe Website, ADA still asks me to log in. On the bottom of the application I'm offered 'Adobe Photoshop CS5.1' and an installation bar with "Sign in with your Adobe ID to continue" written underneith. When I log in it acknowledges me at the top of the application (("Welcome, [My Name]")) but nothing changes in the lower portion of the application and it still asks me to sign in to continue.
Any suggestions?

You will want to complete solution 1 in Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assistant.html#main_Solutio n_1. Where are you trying to save the install files too?
Alternately you can utilize the steps listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369 to initiate a direct download.

The most common cause is because of the browser cookies.
Clear your browser's cookies. If you don't know how, see your browser's documentation for instructions.
Go back to the Adobe Downloads page for the product trial you are downloading and refresh it (Command+R or Ctrl+R).
If that doesn't help, then have a look at the following document that list other scenarios and solutions as well.: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assistant.html

Mac system - adobe download assistant "installing" but not opening

I have a Mac operating system and am trying to download the trial Design premium. I have done it on a PC and had no problems. It is popping up in my downloads fine and when I click on it, I have a dmg. file that lets me click it. Then it says it is "installing" but then says please wait and just closes. Nothing opened, no downloads start, nothing. I have done the refresh page thing as the website suggests, I have done it signed into my account and not signed in, nothing will work. PLEASE HELP!

Does the DMG file mount to your desktop? The installer will not launch automatically, there is no autoplay on Macintosh, so you need to initiate the installer yourself.

Adobe Download Assistant doesn't open

I'm hoping someone can help me. My PC runs Vista. I cannot seem to install a trial version of Acrobat XI. I download the trial, using Chrome, and the Adobe Download Assistant file is shown on my download bar at the bottom of my screen. When I click on it to open and run it, it doesn't open and the file disappears. It doesn't open when I go to my Downloads folder and try to open it from there either. I thought it may be because I don't have an Adobe ID, so I created an account, but that didn't help either. I'm really interested in this software, but if I can't even get it to install, I'm wondering whether Nitro Pro 9 isn't a better bet. Is there anyone who can help me?

Download and installation help for Adobe links
Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages. They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3. If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.

I just downloaded LR and PS via CC onto my new computer. LR runs fine but PS won't even open a file

PS seemed to download fine via CC but won't run property, won't even open a file! I downloaded LR also and it works fine, the problem is just with PS

I fear you will not get much more help here. This forum is called Enterprise Deployment (Acrobat and Reader) and you don't seem to have any problems with Acrobat or Reader.
(Reader, by the way, just reads PDF files, and has nothing to do with installing anything else).
Each forum has a different set of experts, so I recommend the Photoshop forum here http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop
Tip: please include full syptoms, especially error messages. "Won't even open a file" doesn't give much even for the experts to go on.
Good luck!
