Adobe Illustrator won't open after install.

I downloaded AI off of the creative cloud, but it won't open. I see the process "illustrator.exe" come up in the task manager, stays for about 30 seconds, then exits. There's no splash screen or anything. I've reinstalled it twice, and looked at the install log.
Here's errors in the log:
[ERROR] | | OOBE | DE | | | | 7240 | DS003: Cannot zip 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\CEPServiceManager4\\Adobe\AdobePatchFiles\{0F60BFC92B55089F395D}'. Error: Error 183 Cannot create a file when that file already exists.

My illustrator won't open after I install

my illustrator won't open after I install

menya,
I believe you may as well go straight to 6) on the list.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
If possible/applicable, you should save curent artwork first, of course.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Motion 3 Won't Open After Installing

Hi,
I reinstalled Motion 3 after doing it 2 days ago because the beach ball keeps coming up and never leaves causing me to force quit. I let it stay up one night and when i awoke 8 hours later it was still up. thus, i reinstalled after trashing it. there's never any motion files in the library to delete and no motion files in the receipts. this time it won't open after installing it and booting down computer. I have lion 10.7.5 the fcp studio disk that i install for motion says version 3 but could have sworn on the computer when it was working it said motion 4. Any suggestions? did all my software updates too.
Thanks,
joe

Motion 3 is part of Final Cut Studio 2. There are many threads on these boards about trying to get those apps to install properly on OS versions above 10.6.8. Here's one such thread. A search will bring up additional ones.

Iphone 4 won't open after installing ios 7.1

Please help. My iphone 4 won't open after installing ios 7.1.. I already connected it to my pc but still didn't open. I waited for a long time, press the on/off, home buttons but still didn't work. Thanks Jah bless all..

Honsetly I do not know if they will charge you, however apple products usually have a one year warranty, such as your charging cable, might. But if you tried to use another charging cable then you will want to make an appointment with Apple. good luck

Aperture 3.4.1 won't open after install

Aperture 3.4.1 wont open after install. it says my graphics card isn't supported. Here's my card ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB, but I can't find specs required for 3.4.1, so I got no idea

Here is the Error Message I get
"The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture."
Here is my hardware profile:
iMac
24-inch Mid 2007
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G56)
Went by the Apple store and they didn't have anybody that had seen this one yet. Going by tomorrow for a deeper dive to see if they can find any issue with hardware. Seems like they should have found this before release. I suppose it could be an old card. My iMac is from 2007, so it could be that they have passed it by. I just want to knowwhat I need to get next. Ill reply to this tomorrow if it gets resolved

Reader won't open after install - Macbook Air, Chrome

Hello, After downloading the reader (seemingly successfully), it won't open. Downloaded via Chrome OSX on a brand new Macbook air. Adobe's help section advised redownloading the program again. When I did so, I received this message after going through all steps (including deleting the original download from the computer). Have tried a few times now, with same result:
When I click on the installer on my desktop, it repeats the exact process described above. Any ideas?

Hi laurenr67230747,
You indicated that Reader won't open, so it sounds like you did get it installed (as indicated by the message in the installer as well). What happens when you try to launch Reader? Do you receive an error, or does nothing happen when you try to open it?
Have you tried removing Reader before running the installer again?
Best,
Sara

Itunes won't open after installing 10.6

The OTA upgrade to 5.1 went great but after I installed itunes 10.6 and restarted my computer (laptop with windows vista) itunes won't open if I ununstall & reinstall will I lose everything?

Nope. But backing up before you do this is recommended.

Itunes won't open after install of IOS7

After installing IOS7 on my Iphone4S iTunes won't open. When you click the app it starts to open and then just closes. I have shut the phone off and checked the settings but nothing seems to be working. Help?

Applesbabe wrote:

That behavior indicates that the app is crashing.
I recommend trying a restore. Plug your iPhone into iTunes (current version: 11.1) and click the Restore button.
Also consider any possible apps you might have that are suspect - possibly corrupt. Remove any such apps before attempting the restore.

i have been following this message board each day for the past week - ever since my iTunes stopped working. i have not yet seen anyone who is receiving the same error message as myself.
like most others, i downloaded the recent update for iTunes - since then, iTunes will not open. i have tried most of the other proposed solutions to no avail, such as downloading a stand-alone version of quicktime, making sure my msconfig start-up has the correct check marks, etc.
the iTunes set-up completes with no problem - i have tried installing by saving the file to my hard drive and then running and also by running the program straight from the download window. same results.
once i go to open iTunes, i receive the following error message: "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. if you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. Please tell Microsoft about this problem." Then I click "Send Error Report" just hoping I will receive a required update to make this work.
i was wondering if you could attempt to help me resolve this issue? i have my music saved to my external hard drive, so i am in no danger of losing my music. however, i need to open iTunes to update my iPod.
thanks in advance for your help.

Adobe Reader won't open Tried installing updated Adobe Reader and error came up in the process and told me to contact software manufacturer. Could I uninstall current Adobe Reader and then try installing the current AR? Any ideas?

My Adobe Reader wouldn't download tickets. Tried opening Adobe Reader application but it would not open. I saw my Adobe Reader needed to be updated, so I attempted to install new Adobe Reader. When it came to finalizing, it said there is an error and can't do. Any ideas? I have no functioning Adobe reader. Should I uninstall old Adobe Reader and then try installing the updated AR?

(Had to step away & do things) I can't even open up the Adobe Reader application to uninstall; get message it won't open. And now have more things needing to be downloaded to print. Any ideas on how to open the app, so I can uninstall. I have a MAC OS X 10.9.4 When the installation initially failed I received this message from Adobe, " Adobe Reader Installation Error Package name Adobe Reader xi (11.0.07) Installer: installing abase path/installer: The install failed (The install encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.) It did not specify what the error was

Adobe Reader won't open after successful installation??

Hi guys,
I recently installed the latest version of Adobe Reader for my Macbook Air and even got a confirmation that it was successfully installed and everything and yet when I click on its icon, it just won't open. Usually with Macs, the application icon will bounce up and down as the application is loading or waiting to open but the Adobe icon just moves once then stops, and nothing happens. It would say that it is "open" because it gives me the "quit" option when I right click on the icon. I've tried downloading it again twice but it still won't budge and worst of all, it doesn't give me any clues as to what is wrong with it or what I can do about it.
So if any of you know a solution, please let me know and thank you in advance!

Outlook 2010 won't open after installing icloud for windows

Hi,
Installed icloud for windows at work this morning after moving my MM account to icloud at home on my MBP.
Installed ok but after ticking the mail, contacts, calendar and bookmark boxes on icloud for windows Outlook 2010 starts but won't open and stays on the "Processing..." for a long time before I close it.
Also the icloud for windows control panel won't reopen except the time it opens after installation. I have tried removing it and rebooting but after it's installed, if you close the control panel it won't reopen although it's still running in Task Manager. Closing it in Task Manager and restarting doesn't make a difference.
Currently I removed, rebooted and reinstalled and only have the bookmarks ticked and outlook works ok but the control panel still won't reopen.
I am on a exchange server so don't know if this is part of the problem. Not real worried about mail but would like calendars working again.
Very thankful for any help you can offer.

I had the same problem after successfully moving from MobileMe to iCloud yesterday on my PC, ipad and iphone.
Today I couldn't open Outlook 2010. An Outlook dialogue box for my MobileMe email account kept asking for the email password, and although I put the password in, it kept re-appearing.
I turned off Norton spam temporarily, because I noticed Outlook was stuck processing the Norton plug ins at opening, and managed to open Outlook but the programme crashed every time I tried to access my email account settings (I thought I would try to delete the MobileMe email account).
I then opened the Control Panel for iCloud and unchecked the Mail with Outlook box, which has enabled Outlook to work again. The @me.com email account was gone when I checked the email accounts. I never needed to use the @me.com email account anyway.
How frustrating and such a waste of my time.
Does anyone know what difference it makes if the MobileMe/iCloud email is not connected to Outlook? Does it really make any difference when you have your email accounts in the iPad and iPhone anyway?
