Adobe Photoshop CS4 English Language Pack Error: Error 2.

I've read another post indicating this error upon install of CS4. Many of the factors described do not fit my scenario, so I thought I'd post this again.
Basically, I have Win XP SP3 all updates applied. Minimal services running. No software firewall. Everything installed just fine from Production Premium CS4 EXCEPT Photoshop. Error shown in subject line of this post is issued by installer.
Photoshop won't boot stating it is missing files from it's folder.
Wazzup?

OK. This error drove me nuts and I have seen a thousand different "solutions" posted on various forums (none of which actually worked), but I think I found the magic bullet for this problem. This appears to be a result of corrupted/missing language pack files. Here's what I did to resolve it once and for all!
You should already have a folder somewhere with the contents/Setup.exe for CS4 Design Premium
Download the trial version of Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended
Unpack the contents to a folder/directory somewhere on your PC
You will NOT be installing the Photoshop CS4 Extended application - only copying some files.
Copy the "extensions" folder from Photoshop CS4 Extended, that you just downloaded to your CS4 Design Premium folder (there should be an "extensions" folder already there as well)
Select yes if prompted to replace existing files/folders.
Double-click the Setup.exe in your CS4 Design Premium directory and re-start the installation of Photoshop from there.
Problem should be solved.

  • The Kuler panel not available in Adobe Photoshop CS6 french language pack ????

    Hello !
    Why the Kuler panel is not available in Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator CS6 french language ???? it's ok when I make an Int. US language install ! can I find the kuler.atn somewhere?
    Only the Mini Bridge appears in the extention panel....
    thanx for your help !

    and I suppose it's the same in the Canadian law too . So, if I understand you, I buy an incomplete software without any information from Adobe about that !!!!! and you don't alow me to use a complet french version of the software I paid and use on the US country because of a French law that nobody knows neither follow except ADOBE?????  can you explain me more because I really don't understand your "no answer" to explain an other bug in your software... Why do you sell it as an incomplet solution at the same price in that case? Just have to inform every users about that and we will baught the US (or other language) versions in place of the french one...
    Is there finaly a temporary solution to find & install the kuler extention from the US version to the french version in Photoshop & Illustrator (by myself, of course and without the agreement of ADOBE )

  • CS4 extended-Installation-English Language Pack error

    i just upgraded from photoshop CS3 to CS4. The installation went fine, except a the end, an error message was in the additional info box, saying:
    Adobe Photoshop CS4 English Language Pack
    Error:
    Error 2.
    LangPack (English) for DeviceCentral
    Error:
    I tried running pshop and i got a message "miising components" and it wouldnt start. Tech support in India told me to uninstall CS3 and CS4, stop all startup items in msconfig, reboot and reinstall.
    I got the same message. Tech support said they'd get back to me Monday, since there was no "official" tech support on the weekends. BTW, i was on with them for 4 hours.
    Anyone have any suggestions. I noticed that even though i uninstalled pshop, bridge CS3 is still functioning.
    Thanks
    hal

    Problem Solved:
    I finally spoke to a US tech guy.
    He acknowledged I had tried all the simple and radical fixes, so he suggested I upgrade to XP service pack 3 and also to download the CS4 extended again. I did both.
    I used Beyond Compare to do a CRC comparison between the old and new Software which found no differences.
    I restored my Ghost backup of C: from just before I had removed all the adobe programs, so the PC was back to the original setup before I had the installation problems.
    Then I installed SP3, which went well and ghosted the PC again.
    Then, just to increase the odds of a successful installation, I did an alt-ctrl-del and went to the processes tab and killed anything which seemed unnecessary (things I recognized, like anti-virus, Norton, update managers, etc).
    Finally, I installed from the new download of CS4 extended.
    It worked!!!!!!!
    Hope this helps anyone with similar problems.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 Installation Error

    I'm new to this site and my computer has Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1.
    After I installed Photoshop CS4 trial, it failed to install Photoshop, but the rest were successful. I went to get more information and this is the message:
    Adobe Fonts All
    Error:
    Error 1603. Error 1907.Could not register font . Verify that you have sufficient permissions to install fonts, and that the system supports this font.

    If there is a topic similar to this one, then I shouldn't be here!

    I have been using Adobe Photoshop CS4 for a few months now without any problems or errors.
    But last week.. i had a virus problem and decided to do a Clean Installation of my Operating System.
    I was not too worried because I have done this millions of times already... and know the process like the back of my hand.
    Well.. after the clean installation was complete, i started to load my applications.
    To my surprise.. Adobe Photoshop CS4 would not install. Nor would Adobe Illustrator CS4.
    It would get to the screen "Adobe is beginig the installation process" and would stall ..
    At first... i thought it would eventually complete on it's own.. but after a few attempts and hours of the same screen with no progress.. it was obvious Adobe was no longer responding at that stage.
    I searched high and low, night and day, over a few days trying to figure out the problem.
    I was trouble-shooting everything.
    In the middle of trouble-shooting, i took a break to surf the Net and see if i could find any suggestions when i ran into this Forum.
    Someone mentioned disabling your Internet Security & Windows Defender.. and i thought.. no way.. it can't be that easy.
    Well.. what do you know.. it was my Internet Security (Kaspersky Internet Security 2010)
    After disabling Kaspersky Internet Security 2010, Adobe flew right pass the part where it was stalling, and finished installation without incident.
    Adobe Illustrator CS4 also installed without any problems ...
    I just wanted to share my experience as i know how frustrating it can be when software refuses to install.
    Good Luck to everyone.. be patient.. trial & error. .. and im sure you'll figure it out.

    "downloaded Photoshop CS4 here and i tried to install as trial (30 days), Error: "Please insert Photoshop C4 into drive E:/ to continue instalation" what's wrong? What should I do? To install free trial? Tks"
    @ ApologetX
    I had a similar problem when i extracted the contents of my Adobe DVD and made an ISO file out of it so i would no longer need the DVD for installation.
    But what i realized is that.. Adobe will not install if it's installed from the ISO.. and during installation.. an error would pop up.. and ask for the DVD
    You probably have done something similar.
    Here's what i did to fix:
    - Extract the contents of Adobe Photoshop CS4 into a Folder
    - and install from that ..
    After i extracted the contents and installed from "setup.exe" .. the installation completed without error ..
    DVD
    - If you're having problems from the DVD .. then try to extract the Contents of the DVD on to your Desktop..
    and install from there ..
    Trial Installer
    - As for the Trial you are referring to .. im not familiar with it ..
    but try to extract the contents of it to your Desktop .. and go from there ..
    Good Luck

  • Problem installing Adobe Photoshop CS4. Please help me.

    Hi Geeks,
    I am stuck with Adobe Photoshop CS4 (Trial) installation since last two days. I am desperately looking for help to get rid of this problem.
    My Problem:
    At the end of installation of Adobe Photoshop CS4 (Trial) i was prompted with en error
    message stating some of the components were not installed.  When I check the more information button provided in the error message window, it showed below error.
    “Adobe Photoshop CS4 English Language Pack Error: Error 2.”
    Still I could find the installed Photoshop in C:\Program files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Photoshop.exe
    When I executed above file; application showed below error message and close it.
    “Some of the application components are missing from the application directory, Please reinstall the application.”
    I just try to run Adobe Device Central CS4 which was installed along with it.  It showed below error message.
    “The Localized resource files for this application could not be loaded. Please reinstall or repair the application and try again.”
    So My Problem is I am unable to open Photoshop CS4 after its unsuccessful installation.
    I spent more than a day in different ways as I explained below in more info section.  I am desperately looking for helping hands to fix this problem.
    I ever find this kind of difficulty with any other components installation in my 10 years of development experience.  Please help me.
    More info:
    (1) I have downloaded Adobe Photoshop CS4 (Trial) in this month (July 09) from adobe official site.
    (2) My PC OS Windows XP SP3.
    (3) Prior to install Photoshop CS4 I had Acrobat reader 8 and Adobe DW CS4.
    (4) After I read some stuff on net, I downloaded both Windows install Clean up and CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility.exe.
    (5) First I uninstalled all DW CS4 and Photoshop CS4 using add/remove then rebooted.
        then ran CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility.exe (which really did not removed as it did not
        find any Adobe component), then installed Photoshop CS4. No luck. same error.
    (6) This time I ran CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility.exe and removed DW CS4, Photoshop CS4 and flash and rebooted. Then I ran Photoshop CS4 as Administrator. Same thing repeated at the end of installation and when I tried to open the photoshop.  Finding a real hard time with it.
    Any kind of help to get rid of this problem would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    R Sunil.

    PS CS4 software itself has to be installed as Admin. Put the downloaded folder on the desktop (if not there already). Open the folder and right click on the .exe file and choose run as Admin.
    Install on C drive is the best stable choice.
    Before you do all this make the anti-virus is turned off. If windows defender is running turn that off too. If Adobe reader is installed renove that. Ensure no other adobe products are running in the background.
    During install the process will hang at 90 percent for about 10 to 15 mins. This is normal.
    After the software is installed reboot computer.
    After reboot go to start, All Programs and right click on PS CS4. Click on properties, Compatibility and check run as Admin. Hit Apply and OK to close. Run PS CS4 and update to 11.0.1
    Be Advised:
    Now the biggest problem you might run into is that the trial install went too far and failed. If this happened you cannot re-install PS CS4 trial because of the DRM that is hidden in the registry hive. The hidden DRM prevents people from installing the trial more then once and limits the trial at 30 days. There is nothing you can do other then nuking the hard drive and a fresh install of your operating system.

  • Windows 7 Production Premium CS4 language pack installation error + solution

    Ok. Long story short...(For solution scroll all the way down)
    Tried to install ubuntu next to my windows vista. Next day I found myself wondering in store searching for windows 7 because Ubuntu install ruined something somewhere inside my computer and neither one of my OS were not starting at all...
    Ok. So I purchased Windows 7 with smile in my face and happiness in my soul! Now it´s clean installed and working and I have to say it is much better than Vista was...
    Already installed 3d max 2009 and couple of other old programs and works like charm and softwares are starting fast!
    ...BUT
    Today I tried to install my wonderful CS4 Production Premium package to this computer. All went well all the way to the end report where it said something like "installation error" and then there was few products or files on the list which it was unable to install...(I can post the exact list tomorrow when I try to uninstall and then again install suite the fourth or fifth time in a row.) After error report I was really worried. First I tried to start Photoshop and all I got was error report "some of the application components are missing from the application directory. Please re-install the application." Then I tried Illustrator and the message was "the localized resource files for this application could not be loaded. Please re-install...blah blah..." When I try to open Onlocation I get windows error "Adobe Onlocation has stopped working." Bridge and Media Encoder are working! But when tried to start After Effects, Premiere and Soundbooth it just opened the serial key window. When I write the serial from my dvd-box backlabel it gives me the nice big red X and says that my serial is not valid. But my serial was really valid just a while ago when I started to install these softwares! Oh please NO!
    Ok. So...Questions shortly:
    How to get my Production Premium installation work in Windows 7 and get back to work?
    How to de-activate my softwares after computer breakdown or user stupidity leading to computer breakdown so I can use my softwares again?
    EDIT:
    Well...This is what I got from the error report:
    Adobe After Effects CS4 LangPack (en_GB)
    Error:
    Error 2.
    Adobe Encore CS4 LangPack (en_GB)
    Error:

    Error 2.
    Tried installing different language but it still won´t work...
    Can´t install it in safe mode and installing trough troubleshooters different windows versions won´t work either...
    Any ideas anyone?
    EDIT:
    Tried creating .nrg dvd-images with Nero and installing from harddrive instead of dvd-discs but still no luck. So problem is not in my dvd-drive or discs...
    EDIT:
    SOLUTION...
    Adobe support answered to my question. I was missing a DOCUMENTS folder from my USERS - PUBLIC path and after I created that and un-installed & installed my production premium package, everything worked like it should! You might encounter to this same problem also if your USERS - PUBLIC - DOCUMENTS folder has some security settings on... Just right click the folder, choose security and check full control in permissions and remember to sign in as administrator when you install any software...
    Hope this tip is helpful!
    Now...Back to work!

    WOH, just what I needed.
    My problem was, that I have moved my documents to another partition, but the public parts I unfortunaly don't had thinked about. . This was 'the solution'! Thank you J_Suhonen!

  • How to deploy Adobe Photoshop CS4 11.0.1 update - multiple languages

    Hello
    I used Creative Suite 4 Deployment Toolkit to modify Adobe CS4 installation. Installation works like a charm. I have disabled auto updates in the installation of CS4.
    My problem is now finding guide or information how to deploy updates.
    I have downloaded: Adobe Photoshop CS4 11.0.1 update - multiple languages from adobe.com.
    Unpacked the zip and I dont see any files that I can modify to install the upgrades in silent mode. There is one setup.exe and two MSI files. I tired looking at MSI files in Wise but there was very little there.
    Only information I could find was guide how to run silent updates for CS3, but I dont think its same for cs4.
    I talked to Norwegian/Swedish support but that didnt get anywhere
    Any info you guys can provide is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you so much, this is exactly what I needed also! My deployment also worked well, but I couldn't figure out the syntax for the update.

Maybe you are looking for
