Adobe programs will not run.

We keep having a recurring problem were adobe products fail to run. The issue is occurring to frequently continue reinstalling the Adobe suite whenever it happens.
As an example, when you run illustrator the illustrator.exe and pdapp.exe processes start, run for a second, then stop. No errors or splash-screen. No sign that anything has happened.
Any ideas? I can't seem to find a support number to call.

This is an open forum with a mix of other users and Adobe staff, not Adobe support... you need Adobe support

Error 148:3 is a licensing error for Adobe Paid apps like Photoshop or Flash Professional...
WHERE exactly are you seeing this error?

I deactivated Photoshop CC on my Mac Mini and downloaded PS CC on my MacBook 1.1. I didn't realize the program will not run on MB 1.1. I uninstalled the app on the MacBook. I tried to reactivate on my Mac Mini and it tells me I already have the program loaded on two computers. How do I solve the problem?

The activation server shows that it is now activated on two computer, it has been deactivated once .
When you install it on the third computer or for the third time & when you to activate it, if it installed & activated already twice, there will be an option of deactivating it from the previous computers, please click on that.(To deactivate from preinstalled machine, Open any Adobe CC application > Help Menu > Signout.)
Next it will allow you to activate on your new machine,
Now you can go back to your first computer, log out & log back in of Desktopp CC App, launch any product, if there is any product to buy, in that prompt there will be an option to " license the software", please click on that & sign in.
It will reactivate the CC on the first machine.
You have already deactivated it from one machine, hence you can activate it on third computer.

No matter what I do, I cannot get Firefox to run Java correctly. I've deleted the cache, etc., etc., but my school programs will not run on Firefox.

Firefox (v. 18.0.1) will not run my school programs any more since the Java scare. It also is choking at running screencast-o-matic.
And this is happening on both my computers not just one.
I have emptied Java cache, emptied the browser caches, downloaded the latest Java, Reinstalled it. Cleared caches again, etc., etc., etc.
Firefox will not run Java and I have to use IE which is the only browser that I have gotten the scripts to function so that I can use my programs.

Been there done that. Actually I have even install a fresh Firefox on virgin win8 64-bit laptop (without synchronising to my firefox in general) with the absolutely latest Java - didn't help either. And my test page is not the only one, but as I did this myself I know exactly the contents.
Since then my Firefox is in sync... well more or less as it seems it only sync some ways but that is another matter... but at least most of my stuff is back in place.
What I know is that the egg.html takes forever to load, and that the java part never shows. I think that this goes for most Java places, but I do remember that it was not always the case. Right now even the Oracle test page can't find Java, and I know it could at some point. Reinstalling tells me I already got Java, so it is there, likewise it is active in the plugin window. But some parameter some where must have gone haywire.

I need to install version 22 - nothing higher until 27 is available as my payroll program will not run. How do I install version 22 and not the most recent ver

I need to install version 22. This is under the guidance of my payroll provider. The program will not work until version 27 comes out. I do not need help solving the problem with the payroll program, I just want to install version 22 of Firefox.

Firefox 27.0 is in Beta at moment until February 4 release.
You would be better off trying to use wither the User Agent Switcher extension or ua-site-switch extension to try a fool this one site or to use the portable Firefox 22.0 just for this one site.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ua-site-switch/
You should not switch to using 22.0 only due to known potential vulnerabilities that is fixed in newer versions like the current Fx 26.0.
The Portable Firefox is a self contained program as it will not interfere with your current Firefox 26.0 install. It can even be used completely on a usb flash drive. http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Ed./Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Edition%2022.0/ and pick your language.
I posted a ink to portable Firefox 22.0 as their homepage currently only links to the current 26.0 and 24.2.0esr on http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable

Adobe Suite will not run with most recent Java after I have installed Yosemite

I have updated to Yosemite for my Mac, when trying to open Adobe Photoshop it prompted me to install Java 6, which I installed, then Java said to update to 8, which I did. My photoshop and other adobe suite programs still will not open (except Bridge) and keeps coming up with the error message to open the webpage to download DL1572.

This is a strange error. I had the same problem but my CC is running.
Which is your version of Photoshop please?

New Security Update and now apple based programs will not run

I recently downloaded and installed the new security update. I also attempted to download the safari 3.1 update, but an error occurred during download. After restart, iTunes, Mail, Safari, Installer and iMovie will not start (Quicktime will start). The applications from bar and from applications folder will not launch. All third party apps seem to work (I used Explorer 5.2-which I found hidden in one of my folders- to download firefox which I am using now)
I have tried:
-Reinstalling most recent Leopard Update (10.4.11), which fails to even start because Installer crashes
-Deleting preference files
-Using disk utility
-Booting from safe mode and single user mode
-Running repair permissions from prompt screen (command-s)

IWork '09 programs will not run on Lion

I have iWork 09 installed on my MacBook Pro. After installing Lion, none of the three software programs will open. I get an error telling me to contact the developer and make sure I am running the most current version of the software. I have run all the standard Software Updates and everything seems to be up to date. I have tried downloading the iWork updater v9.1 but when I run it, it tells me that my version of Keynote is newer than the update and then quits.
Anyone have any ideas?

Office 2004 was written for PowerPC. To run Office 2004 on an Intel based Mac, you need Rosetta to translate PowerPC instructions to Intel instructions. OS X Lion no longer includes or supports Rosetta. As such, any application written for PowerPC no longer work on Lion, including Office 2004.
Office 2008 and Office 2011 were written for Intel. They'll work just fine on OS X Lion.
To address your problem, you can do one of the following:
1) Reinstall OS X Snow Leopard from a backup, if you made one.
2) Upgrade to Office 2011.
3) You could use a suite of productivity apps that can import Office documents, such as OpenOffice, or Apple's iWorks. There will be some incompatibilities between these applications and Office though.

ADOBE X will not run a PDF File

I have Windows
XP Home Edition 3, have Adobe X
installed but I cannot read a PDF File. This has been my pr
oblem for years, Adobe had me uninstall
Adobe X and install Adobe 7, but it still would not allow me to rea
d a PDF File. They finally gave up trying to help me. My so
n in the next room can read a PDF File on his computer, but I do no
t know what program he has.

I try to open a PDF File, so
I click on it and immediately an Error Message appear
s, saying "Adobe Reader has encountered
a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for
the inconvenience. I click on "Error Information" and I get this- "Error Signature App Name acrod32exe Mod Ver: 5.1.2600.5781

Adobe Lightroom Will Not Run.....Help

I am trying to run the Windows XP version of Adobe Lightroom 1.0 on a Pentium 4 system with 1.5GB or RAM that meets all the system requirements. After installation the title screen comes up and then gives the error message Adobe Photoshop Lightroom encounted an error and needs to close. The error signature says it is Lightroom.exe ModName: substrate.dll Offset: 0003e413 after which it will close down. I would really like to try this program out and am getting no such luck. This happed with the beta versions as well as the final version.
I have tried to cover all the bases, including uninstalling and reinstalling, even removing the image database thinking maybe that is what is crashes. If anyone has an suggestions I would really appreciate as this sound like exactly what I am looking for.
Thanks,
Travis

I did check that site last night but it didn't have anything that helped. I think I may have tracked it down though. I started shutting down programs on the task bar and tried running Lightroom. After a little while it started working without a glitch. I rebooted, and low and behold the error was back. Come to find out, it was somehow incompatible with Super Screen Capture Pro. Once I turned that off, no problems. At least for now. I will have to keep testing to be 100% sure, but it seems ok with that closed. Thought I would pass this along maybe it may help someone else.

Adobe Reader will not run with limited user account.

I am trying to upgrade our Citrix Server Farm, from Reader 8.0 to 9.1, and am running into some issues. First I uninstalled Adobe Reader 8.0 and then installed 9.1 from Adobe's site. Aftter the install completed I was able to run 9.1 without any problems. However today, when some limited users started working, they started getting runtime errors. This only happens with non-administrator user accounts.
the error messages are attached.
After clicking OK, Adobe Reader terminates.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I do believe that I solved my own problem... almost.

"The affected user has a redirected Application Data folder and as a result the network path containing the Application Data uses a UNC path that begins with \\. This UNC path causes Acrobat 9.0 or Adobe Reader 9.0 to incorrectly parse the Application Data path and give the error message."
The article tells me to upgrade to Adobe Reader 9.1... WTF!!! 9.1 is when this problem started, 8.0 worked great! I would stay with 8.0 if I could, but some of our programs require 9.1.

LabVIEW program will not run on Windows 2000

I need to run parts of a LabVIEW program on a PC which does not contain all the hardware required to run the full version. This used to work on Windows 95/98 but on Windows 2000 I get error message 'Capabilty not supported. VI was stopped at node 0x1BC of subvi "Out Port.vi"'. This program is very large and full of references of this type, is there an easy way around this problem?

Hi,
I might be barking up the wrong tree here, but Windows 2000 is built on top of the architecture of Windows NT. Win NT/2000 treats direct memory access differently to Win95/98.
Have a look at the following link and see if that helps - unfortunately it involves re-writing (well, re-linking) the .vi's that are calling the out port.vi. The link is in reference to writing to the parallel port through direct memory access, but the .vi's are based on writing to any memory location.

at version of LV you're using, the following link might also prove useful (if you're using LV 6.0.2+)
