Adobe software trials download but fail to open

Hello.
I am having issues downloading Adobe InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator. I am working on a PC Windows XP, I’m guessing from 2004. Attempted to download Illustrator via Cloud. Tried opening the program; it loaded for a few minutes and then came up with the following message “This program has encountered a problem and needs to close. We apologise for any inconvenience.”
Then downloaded InDesign with no assisting program – directly from the website. This also failed. I tried removing the program, then downloading it again in a different location but this didn’t help. I repeated this process many times, trying several different locations but no luck. The software will actually download, but will not open. When I attempt to download it, in the Adobe Download window (the destination download folder options), there is a yellow symbol with an exclamation mark next to ‘Adobe InDesign’ and the file size it will be.
I thought there was not enough disk space but even after I tried clearing space the program did not open. I am fairly certain disk space is not the issue as my computer is telling me I have enough space for the InDesign Download.
I also read somewhere that the reason why InDesign may fail to open is that the default printer may not be connected. I connected the default printer, downloaded the program again and the problem was not rectified.
I also have tried downloading Adobe Photoshop and in the destination download folder options, the yellow exclamation symbol does not appear. However, this program too crashes after I open it. Unlike with InDesign, I get to Photoshop’s menu system but after a couple of minutes loading it comes up with the message: “This program has encountered a problem and needs to close. We apologise for any inconvenience.” Someone pointed out on another forum that I needed to download SP3 which I did, and Photoshop ran for about 6 hours before crashing.
Have tried downloading Illustrator but will load for a few moments before crashing.

Cecliicious4 to confirm you did upgrade on April 8 to Windows XP Service Pack 3 per your previous discussion at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1187050 correct?
If so then you may also want to look at the system requirements for Photoshop and InDesign, you can reference them at http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/tech-specs.html, and verify there are no additional system requirements which have not been met.
You may also want to do additional maintenance on your system to verify you are not running into overheating issues which could be causing the computer to crash.  I mention this since you have indicated you are attempting to install the latest Adobe Creative Software on a 9 year old computer.  The amount of dust inside the case, if never cleaned, could cause all kinds of unpredictable effects similar to what you have described above.
Finally you can verify the installation was completed successfully by reviewing your installation logs.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • Downloading error of Ae, error code :5. It keeps advising me to redownload my Ae trial version but fails to open every time

    the error code is number 5, and the message says "you'd better delete the program and download it one more time"
    but the problem doesn't solve
    the program (Ae trial version) did download to my desktop, but it keeps failing to open.

    check your file size to see if you have a complete download.
    if you're having trouble completing the download, try a different browser and/or a different (wired) connection and/or a download manager.

    This is not Adobe. Rather user to user. The Adobe Staff and PRE_help presence in this forum is undefined.
    The replies from here are not instantaneous. But, your fellow users all try to respond as timely as possible.
    What is your computer operating system?
    From where are you downloading Premiere Elements 13....direct from Adobe as the tryout or the purchased product? If the purchased product, do you now have a purchased serial number to go with the installation files?
    Where are you stopped in the installation....at the Sign In or before? Is the faulting module cited in any messages? What are the error messages?
    The usual questions:
    1. Are you working with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    2. Are you running the computer programs as administrator?
    3. Are you working with a pen and tablet device instead of mouse?
    4. Is your video card/graphics card up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    5. Are you installing the program to the default location on the Local Disc C (if Windows).
    Let us start here and then decide what next based on the details that you post. Subsequent troubleshooting may include:
    deletion of the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and/or uninstall, free ccleaner run through, reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
    Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

  • When I download Adobe free trial, download completed, then no more information pop up, why? I mean it is not complete for installation yet.

    Flash was designed for computers with cooling systems, it runs fine on my single core Atom netbook even.
    The new iOS devices come with dual core Atom-like A4 netbook processors, but atlas! no Flash.
    It's because Flash needs cooling and those iOS devices don't have it.
    So dump the phone if the lack of Flash is such a bother, it's a overpriced, over rated phone that has little purpose that a regular phone with text messaging, a laptop, a GPS, a camera and a iPod can do so much better and cheaper as they are separate devices with more abilities.

  • Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized.

    Is there a way to restore photos from Drop box to my desktop iPhoto in a large batch instead of one at a time? I tried and a zip file was downloaded but won't open. Says file format not recognized. I see how to do it one at a time with the "download" button in Dropbox but that's so cumbersome for lots of photos.

Can't get any help from apple. their suppot *****! I want to get someone on the **** phone or a live chat but cant. *** APPLE????? please let mw know if you find SOMETHING i can try next.

    Hi, Ken -
    Since you have a new install of OSX, you may be missing Stuffit Expander, needed to expand downloads encrypted/archived in a Stuffit format. That problem confronted me with a new machine running OSX 10.6; a download and install of Stuffit Expander fixed it.
    You can download Stuffit Expander from this webpage -
    http://www.stuffit.com/mac-expander-download.html
    Note - be sure to get the version that matches your OSX version.

  • When my I tunes Match has been downloaded but when i open I Tunes I do not see it in the left hand column. I have to go to I tunes store about and click on it.

    When my I tunes Match has been downloaded but when i open I Tunes I do not see it in the left hand column. I have to go to I tunes store about and click on it.

    When the match process is not running iTunes match will not be present in the side bar, this is normal behavior.
    If you go to store in the iTunes menu bar you should see "Turn off iTunes match" and "update iTunes match".
    When the match process runs, after you have restarted iTunes, or manually selected update iTunes match it will re-appear in your sidebar.
