Adobe updater mac version fails when opening Master Suite CS3 products after reinstall from drive crash

When I open a CS3 Adobe Product I get a screen that says "Adobe Updater Failed". I reinstalled the suite after a hard disk failure and re-registered the product. I'm sure that there are many updates since this suite came out many years ago, and I want to update to the latest versions.

I have since downloaded a new version of Adobe Updater 5, but now when i launch, the the error screen: "Check your internet connections, Updater cannot connect to the web [paraphrased]", shows up. Of course the internet connection is there for safari, firefox and chrome.

  • Sound fails when opening new sound "sources" quickly after one another

    I hava a problem when the sound on Arch running XFCE.
    At first, there was no sound. I searched for a solution, and found one that seemingly did help. I created .asoundrc in ~ with this text:
    pcm.!default {
        type plug
        slave.pcm {
            @func getenv
            vars [ ALSAPCM ]
            default "hw:PCH"
    This should set the default sound card (as my motherboard have both PCH and HDMI sound card).
    Now there is sound, but it fails when i switch from different sound "sources" (like different YouTube-videoes). For the sound to work again, I have to refresh the page, and generally wait some 20 seconds.
    My motherboard is MSI GAMING 3 Z97, and I don't have more sound card than what is on that card.
    So I was hoping for some help. It's not a big problem, but a bit irritating. :)

    I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you've got a custom timecode field somewhere in your production and/or asset metadata group(s), right? And I'm going to further guess that this timecode field has dashes in it like this --:--:--:--, right? If so, try this: Click the arrow next to the timecode field and adjust the timecode so that it has a number (it doesn't matter what the number is as long it's not dashes - "00:00:00:00" is fine). Then Save this asset, close it and then reopen it and see if the beeping madness has vanished. Then, to make this change permanent for all of your new assets, make sure to edit the default value of any custom timecode fields to put zeros (or some other numeric default value) into them when a new asset is generated. If the asset still beeps when you open it, check the other metadata groups in your set to see if there isn't another empty timecode field lurking in the shadows.

  • Adobe Reader freezes all browsers when opening a url to a PDF containing form fields...

    There is an issue we are currently experienceing with Adobe Acrobat 9 (updated to the latest version) where ALL BROWSERS (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and Safari) on each of two different systems (a MacBook Pro with Mac OSX Leopard and a Sony Vaio Laptop with Windows Vista) where the application will freeze up and crash the browser when we view a .pdf file from a url if the .pdf file iteself contains form fields.
    At first I though it may have been specific to Mac OSX and this MacBook we were trying to view the document on, but the same issue is now occuring with a new Sony Vaio laptop (running Windows Vista) as well.
    It seems like it is able to open .pdf documents containing form fields when they are stored locally, but when trying to access them via a url, the program will freeze up.  Sometimes it will eventually work if you had previously opened a .pdf prior to opening it via the url link and sometimes it doesn't.  And it seems to only be related to .pdfs containing fillable form fields (others open fine when accessing them by a url)
    Obviously it's become quite irratating and I'm hopeing I can find some insight on this support forum as to what may be causing this issue.
    Previous versions of Acrobat (installed on the MacBook) opened this very same .pdf file (url) fine before upgrading to version 9.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    I'm having this issue as well only with a little different twist I guess. I'm transferring the iWorks applications from my Macbook Pro 3,1 with Lion to a new MBP 10,1 running Mountain Lion. I transferred the apps over using DropCopy since the older MBP doesn't have AirPlay. Applications show up but crash upon opening. This is the first install so there are no previous plist, versions or such to delete. All three crashed upon opening every time until I just had to have Keynote and purchased again - although Apple agreed to refund that purchase since my previous version quit working. Any ideas since I don't have any previous plist/versions to delete? Thanks in adavnce for any help you can offer.

  • I try to drag a photo folder into lightroom 4 on my MAC, lightroom fails to open and a 'Corrupt Catalog Detected' screen pops up.  Clicking on 'repair catalog' does not work either.  Any suggestions?

    I try to drag a photo folder into lightroom 4 on my MAC, lightroom fails to open and a 'Corrupt Catalog Detected' screen pops up.  Clicking on 'repair catalog' does not work either.  Any suggestions?

    I'll have to get a better instructor on deleting the preferences since when I've doen it in the past nothing is there when I open LR the catalog is gone. I assumed that was what was supposed to happen so I start importing all over again.  But that is a different issue...
    The problem has been happening since at least the beta of 3 came out and I saw other posts back then saying they had similar issues but I assume it was a beta thing...  But since the full version came out and through each incremental change I haven't seen an improvement. If anything it has gotten a little worse with time.
    I have to try to be careful to not be in a hurry and start clicking around in the catalog as it seems fragile until it has cataloged all the photos in the library. When starting you will see the numbers populate the folders very slowly and I try not to click on a folder that hasn't had the number of photos pop up yet. Also draging the slider down to see more of the cataloge can have the same affect and crash the system.
    I wish I had more to go on.. I believe it may be a resources issue but as I went from 3-4 Gig I thought it would get better. I don't have big programs running but did have outlook and word running in the background along with firefox and chrome.
    And yes it only happens on this HP desktop (it's 2+ yrs old) and may be showing it's age a bit. My laptop which has less resources doesn't have the issue.. I have them sharing the catalog. (not at the same time) just when I'm working in other places in the house.

  • I've been using Adobe Acrobat 7 for many years. I updated my full version of Acrobat 5 to get to 7. My hard drive crashed and I've been trying to reinstall Acrobat and it will not install. Adobe will not help because 7 is no longer supported. Does anyone

    I've been using Adobe Acrobat 7 for many years. I updated my full version of Acrobat 5 to get to 7. My hard drive crashed and I've been trying to reinstall Acrobat and it will not install. Adobe will not help because 7 is no longer supported. Does anyone know where I can go for help?

    You won't be able to install your original Acrobat 7 at all, or use your original serial number. The server which used to allow this was switched off.
    But assuming you have a compatible system, like Mac OS 5 or Windows XP, licensed users of Acrobat 7 can download a replacement and get a replacement serial number.

  • Whenever I connect iPhone 3GS to sync with Mac sync fails to open

    Whenever I connect iPhone 3GS to sync with Mac sync fails to open. Brand new are there any upates I am unaware of?

    "sync" fails to open?  Do you mean, iTunes?
    If you manually open iTunes, does your iPhone show up in the left column?
    If so...
    Click on your iPhone in the left column of iTunes.
    Click on the "Summary" tab in the right colum of iTunes.
    Scroll down to "Options"
    Select "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected"
    Apply

  • Adobe Updater: New version 6.0.2.  What?

    Adobe Updater informed me this morning that an update to Pr 6.0.2 is available; recommended for all users, etc.
    What?  I already had 6.0.2 installed.  Weeks ago. 
    Is this a new update with the wrong version number? 
    Is Adobe Updater malfunctioning?
    Has this happened to anybody else?
    Can anybody from Adobe offer any insight?
    I'm on Mac.

    It just dawned on me to check my laptop, which was also already at 6.0.2.  About Pr tells me the "old" version 6.0.2 is exactly the same: 6.0.2 (072 (MC: 264587). 
    I can't imagine that all of our Updater prefs just simultaneously became corrupted.  Something must be wrong with the updater server, or something changed that makes the server think our version of Pr is older than it is.  Or, there actually is a 6.0.3 update available that's not getting installed.  Or....
    This is probably something Adobe needs to fix on their end.
    And stop teasing us.

  • How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

    How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
    After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
    Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

    Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for.  Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
    Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
    When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
    So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
    *UPDATE  (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
    Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
    Have a blessed day.

  • Adobe Updates "Supressed By the Administrator" - Digital Publishing Suite / InDesign, Enabling Root

    I read: Adobe Updates "Supressed By the Administrator" - Digital Publishing Suite / InDesign (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1152766), but enabling root is not working either. I´m running Maverick and InDesign CC. Update tab is dimmed and tried doing everything that is posted on the forums. Can someone help please?

    Then the next step would be to remove all currently installed Adobe software using the available uninstallers.  I would then utilize the CC Cleaner tool available at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html to insure complete removal.
    You should be able to then install InDesign successfully and apply the updates.
    If you continue to face difficulties then please uninstall all Adobe software and rename the /Library/Application Support/Adobe folder.

  • HELP"apple application support not found when installing itunes after a hard drive crash and replace

    HELP"   error "apple application support not found" when downloading itunes after a hard drive crash and replacement????

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)
