I don't have a server at hand right now ( that machine is busy with an OSX install, on a different partition ) but you could start by looking for any Adobe document that even mentions VC++ 2008.
In other words, at least for the desktop version of CS4 the oficial compiler is the VC 2005 SP1 .
Express should be no problem, I use it myself: "VS80sp1-KB926748-X86-INTL.exe"
You'll also need the matching Windows SDK. Watch out for something labeled "5.2.3790.2075.51.PlatformSDK_Svr2003R2_rtm.dmg"

Afterthought: funny that this thread always pops up when my experimental machine is busy ;-)

Installing Transparency Flattener Preset for Indesign Server CS4

I'm trying to figure out how to install a transparency flattener preset for InDesign Server CS4.
I can see how they are installed for the InDesign app. Edit -> Transparency Flattener Presets...
But I'm not sure which directory to install these on for the server.
I've seen a post that mentions:
C:\Documents and Settings\<UserName>\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\Version 6.0\en_US\Transparency Flattener Presets
/Users/<UserName>/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/Version 6.0/en_US/Transparency Flattener Presets
for the Desktop version. But when I place files here even for the CS4 Desktop, they don't seem to show up in the UI.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Dennis

Thanks, to get this working in a server script, I ended up just programmatically creating the flattener preset, rather than worrying about the .flst files. (Java code below)
//Setup Transparency Flattener (if not in application)
FlattenerPreset flattenerPreset = app.getNamedChildFlattenerPreset("Test");
if (flattenerPreset == null) {
      flattenerPreset = app.addFlattenerPreset();
      flattenerPreset.setName("Test");
      flattenerPreset.setRasterVectorBalance(VariableTypeUtils.createLong(100));
      flattenerPreset.setLineArtAndTextResolution(2400.0);
      flattenerPreset.setGradientAndMeshResolution(400.0);
      flattenerPreset.setConvertAllTextToOutlines(false);
      flattenerPreset.setConvertAllStrokesToOutlines(false);
      flattenerPreset.setClipComplexRegions(false);
pdfPreset.setAppliedFlattenerPreset(flattenerPreset);

Indesign Server CC Trial issues

The installation instructions states
You need to download Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition (APTEE) for using the InDesign Server trial
The download link only refers to CS6, CS5.5 & CS5 not CC
Since there is no Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition for CC I decided just to install and run the trial.
However I got the Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit message.
According to the CC Release notes it says:
InDesign CC Server needs to be activated before it can be used. If the computer is online, activation is done automatically when you install. You need to provide your Adobe ID, and serial number when prompted by the installer. Unless the software is activated, you'll see an error, "Adobe InDesign Server’ is not properly licensed and will now quit."
My computer was online yet the it seems it didn't perfom the automatic activation as it suggests. When I entered my AdobeID credentials I did not get any errors saying it could not connect online.
So I had to do something and decided to use the Adobe Provisioning Toolkit Enterprise Edition for CS6.
This allowed me to get pass the licensing issue.
The next problem was I was getting DDE Server Window:InDesignServer.exe System Error popup. Telling me The program can't start because svml_dispmd.dll is missing from your computer.

I still got the missing dll error so I copied it from C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Intel\Shared Libraries\redist\intel64\compiler into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CC Server x64
Now it just sits there and hangs at the same spot

What the heck is going on here?
I have installed Indesign Server CC on another machine and although I did not get the missing dll problem it still however hangs at the same spot mentioned above.
Could someone from Adobe please help. The already I'm losing days with this trial and I will have little days left to test this product.

I'm having same trial activation difficulties. How have you activated it with APTEE? What leid did you use?
Thank you.
UPDATE: Never mind. I found it and activated server by executing:
"adobe_prtk.exe --tool=StartTrial --leid=InDesignServer-CS7-Win-GM"

Cannot uninstall InDesign CC 2014 trial version

I installed the InDesign CC 2014 trial version and now I cannot remove it from my computer. I go to Control Panel/Uninstall Programs and I cannot find it in the list. I looked in the installation folder of the program for some file that allows me to uninstall it and nothing. When I Installed InDesign I also installed the Adobe Creative Cloud which I could remove without any problem but I am stuck with the InDesign. If anybody can give me a solution...thank you!

InDesign Server CC2014 Trial issue

Hi,
I cannot start our InDesign Server CC 2014 (Windows Server 2008). I have installed the software and was logged with our Adobe ID and installation was successful without any error message. The installation manual states that “InDesign CC Server needs to be activated before it can be used. If the computer is online, activation is done automatically when you install.” However, I got an error message when I tried to launch InDesign Server: “Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit”.
Since I had previously installed InDesign Server CS6 on another machine, I tried to use the APTEE to start the trial. I used the CS6 one because I did not find any version for CC 2014, I finally got the message:
StartTrial Successful
Return Code = 0
but when I tried to launch again InDesign Server, I always get the Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit message.
I also read this thread but did not find the solution Indesign Server CC Trial issues
Thanks for help!

We got the answer hereReturn code 6 when trying to activate trial of InDesignCC Server 2014

Cannot install InDesign Server CS4: Win 2003 x64

One of my customers has just purchased InDesign Server CS4 (Single Instance, Premium License) and I'm trying to install build 525 on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition x64. I select the default 'Easy/Recommended' installation settings and the installer runs through, but then displays the message below. I've tried installing to different directories but hit the same error every time.
When I select 'Next' the installer lists the following products and components have been successfully installed:
Adobe InDesign CS4 Server
ID Server service files
ID Server components
ID Server service files (x64)
However, it doesn't appear to have installed correctly, as if I start the InDesign Server service and then execute the following test script nothing happens:
#target indesignserver;
//HelloWorld.jsx
//Create a new document.
    var myDocument = app.documents.add();
//Get a reference to the first page.
    var myPage = myDocument.pages.item(0);
//Create a text frame.
    var myTextFrame = myPage.textFrames.add();
//Specify the size and shape of the text frame.
    myTextFrame.geometricBounds = ["6p0", "6p0", "18p0", "18p0"];
//Enter text in the text frame.
    myTextFrame.contents = "Hello World!";
//Save the document (fill in a valid file path).
    myDocument.save(new File("/e/HelloWorld.indd"));
//Close the document.
//Close the document.
    app.documents.item(0).close();
Any ideas?

I gave up on this and ended up installing the 32 bit version which works fine. It appears that there is a problem installing 64 bit on Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition so watch out...

CS4 Trial Version: How to Uninstall from PC?

Hi!
I downloaded the CS4 Trial Version. Now I would like to uninstall it from my PC. I still have 23 remaining days, but would like to clear space on my hard drive asap. What will happen when the Trial expires? Will it self-delete, or what??
Would you please tell me how this can best be done? I don't want any files from this download remaining on my hard drive.
TIA,
Clyde Semler

Here's the thing. The uninstallers were part of the package that Adobe made you down and decompress (along with the installer package). From the sounds of it you do not have it.
The following is the CS4 Clean Script:
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
This is usually only recommend in cases where where betas and pre-release software were removed from a system and you run into problems installing the legit software. As a result, this will disable all CS4 software, serial numbers and Adobe Acrobat/Reader installations. It's a commonly used script but it will wipe the system files/registry and all program/user library folders and takes longer to run than the typically uninstaller.
That's your only other option if there is no add/remove programs for whatever reason and you did not hold onto the separate uninstaller packages.

Can't extract the Photoshop CS4 trial version archive

Hello,
i downloaded the Photoshop CS4 trial version with the help of the Akamai download manager and now i have some trouble to extract the archive. I tried it with the Adobe extractor, with 7-Zip and Win-Rar, but i always get the message that some files (about ~500 files) are corrupted.
I downloaded the trial version (archive size 857MB) about 4 or 5 times from the Adobe website, but i always have the same problem. I can't extract the archive properly. Does somebody have a solution for my problem? Thanks in advance!

The size I'm seeing for the English/Windows version of the PS CS4 Ext Tryout .7z is: 853,860,607 / 814.3MB which took 20-25 min to download on a 500-1000KB/sec connection at work.
Using Test in WinRAR 3.80 trial says everything is ok.
Some questions that suggest things to try:
Are you on a wired internet connection all the way to your computer?
Are you extracting from your local C: drive?
Are you deleting what is downloaded each time before retrying?
Have you turned off your virus scanner before downloading and/or when trying to extract the files?

Book Adobe InDesign CS3/CS4 SDK Programming by Kris Coppieters

Hi there, I would like to ask if anybody knows whether Adobe® InDesign® CS3/CS4 SDK Programming Book by Kris Coppieters is available as ebook, since I could find only printed version on Lulu.com. Thanks for your help

Hi Maciej,
No, I've never released my book as an ebook. Not sure if it would be worth the effort - it's an awfully small market! I have my book up on Lulu primarily for my own use, as course notes that I use when I run an InDesign SDK training session - so I can quickly print some nice quality handouts for my students.
Cheers,
Kris

InDesign CS5.5 Trial Version Crashing on Startup

Hello,
I am experiencing an issue with InDesign CS5.5 Trial Version from the CS5.5 Design Premium suite where shortly after startup the program crashes and gives me the spinning wheel of death(mac).
In both of these scenario, Opening an Existing Document or Creating a new Document, I can create/open the document but then immediately after the document opens into the workspace the application stops responding.
Here is the setup i'm working with:
Apple iMac (iMac11,3)
intel core i5 2.8ghz
4GB RAM DDR3 1333mhz
ATI Radeon HD 5750
1TB 7200rpm HDD
Magic Mouse
Wireless Keyboard
OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.7
The system is a brand new system and has all of the most recent software updates for OSX. The only fonts installed are the system defaults and MS Office 2011 fonts.
I've tried uninstalling/re-installing several times and am met with the same results.
Any help or support would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
d_rek

I feel like it's a week for crashes and hangs, alas. Well, it's Friday!
The best advise is to Trash, Replace, Reset, or Restore the application Preferences: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/526990.
If you're lucky, that fixes everything.
Terminology: a crash is when the program actually detects a fault and exits. If you just get the beachball, that's a hang.
Hangs are more difficult to debug, but go to Activity Monitor, select InDesign, and choose Sample Process. Upload the output to pastebin.com and post a link here, and we'll tell you how to proceed.

Running Fireworks CS4 Trial Version after Using CS4 beta

I tried out the Fireworks CS4 beta some months ago, but after
getting tired of all the bugs, I uninstalled it and decided to wait
for the released Trial Version. I downloaded that today and
installed it, but when I try to run it I get a message that says
"The license for this product has expired." and then it quits,
never fully loading. I'm guessing this has something to do with the
CS4 beta I had previously installed and uninstalled. Perhaps I
didn't uninstall it properly, but now I need to know how to move
forward so I can give the release version of Fireworks CS4 and
proper evaluation.
Any ideas on how I can get the CS4 Trial Version
running?

Uninstall the trial.
Then dl/run the clean up script here
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
Install trial again.

Hyper-V Role deployement with MDT2013 on a Server 2012R2 Trial Version

Hello,
when i deploy a custom image that i add the roles install Hyper-V, everything works fine, added the SkipRoles=Yes,
and the role Hyper-V is installed at the end of my new server 2012R2 Trial version, HOWEVER,
there's no icon that appears on the desktop, on the manager, the Hyper-V Manager option is not there,
all the Hyper-V related services are installed.
Seems there's a GUI issue, however in server manager the roles appear on the left side
I reboot, and yet nothing appears, i uninstall the Hyper-V role manually, reboot, re-install manually and the missing shortcuts appear.
Can someone provide me a hint to fix this, i've tested other roles and they also don't appear (DNS).
Thanks in advance for your replys

You are talking about two different things here. The Hyper-V Core, and the Hyper-V Tools. It appears that you want both. Run the following command:
dism.exe /online /get-features
and verify that all hyper-v components are installed:
Feature Name : Microsoft-Hyper-V
State : Enabled
Feature Name : Microsoft-Hyper-V-Offline
State : Enabled
Feature Name : Microsoft-Hyper-V-Online
State : Enabled
Feature Name : RSAT-Hyper-V-Tools-Feature
State : Enabled
Feature Name : Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-Clients
State : Enabled
Feature Name : Microsoft-Hyper-V-Management-PowerShell
