Adobe Premiere and After Effects CS6 installer failed to initialize on Mac Book Air

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to install Adobe Premiere and After Effects CS6 for at least a month now.
I have downloaded the .dmg file at the Adobe Website and it starts to initializing the installer, then a error show up:
"The installer could not initialize. Download the Adobe Support Advisor."
There is no Adobe Support Advisor when I clicked on the link. "The Adobe Support Advisor has been discontinued" (http://www.adobe.com/support/loganalyzer/)
I've tried this many times, but every time being a failure.

Adobe After Effects CS6 Installation Failed

I couldn't instal AAE CS6 Although Ive logged in with my Adobe ID. Please help me Thanks!

What system? What exactly is the error?

After Effects CS6 Update fails with the code (U43M1D204)

I was just downloading and installing the latest updates on both my windows workstation and my Apple MBP. Everything went fine on the windows machine but I keep getting the following error when my MBP attempts to update After Effects CS6:
Update Failed
The download appears corrupted. Please try again after a few minutes.
(U43M1D204)
I am running the latest version of Yosemite (10.10.2). Is there some half downloaded file I can delete to make this work? I've waited. I've rebooted. I'm VERY reluctant to delete my current installation of CS6 if this is what is required. I'm an instructor at a local community college. The college currently only runs CS6. I teach an animation class that uses After Effects and as such I need CS6 working on my MBP. If this update is non critical I'll just let it ride. Oh, yea and I also keep AE CC and AE CC 2014 for no other reason than I can take a students CC 2014 file all the way back to CS6 so they can work in class. I'm guessing I'll need to add CC 2015 or what ever they call it so I will have 4 installations of AE just to do file conversions..... but that is another thread.
Any help on the current install issue would be appreciated

What update is it? What current version of CS6 do you have?
It may be a permissions thing. Mac OSX goes all screwy in the permissions whenever it updates. Try fixing that first. fixing permissions problem that impedes start of Adobe applications

Adobe After Effects Cs6 Installation Error. HELP!

When i do my installation of Adobe After effects cs6, i install as trial version, because i want to see what it is like, and i do everything like everyone says, and then it stops at 2 percent saying Installation Failed and it comes up with these solutions, and i did them all about 5 times and it STILL wont work! SOMEBODY HELP!
And it also saidthis in the error summary:
Payload '{0A1E2FE2-B2AD-42F4-9C74-641853FB093A} Photoshop Camera Raw 7 6.0.98.0' information not found in Media_db.

I have exactly the same problem when installing CS6 Trial.

Adobe CS6 'Installer failed to initialize' on Windows 7. Help!

I downloaded the Adobe Extended CS6 from Adobe.com on to my Windows 7 (HP) Dell laptop on 64bit.
After unpacking the downloaded file, I tried to run the installer but got the message - 'Installer failed to initialize'. It tells me to dowload the Adobe Support Advisor but the program is no longer available. See- Adobe - Adobe Support Advisor
This new link just gives generic links. (Thanks for that Adobe!)
In trying to fix this, I have uninstalled all Adobe Cloud/Flash software and ran the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner and CCleaner tools. And yet the problem persists.
I've lost half a day trying to fix this, so if there's anyone out there who can help I'd be very grateful!

Is your user profile on the C: drive? How about the Temp directory?

Photoshop CS6 installer fails to initialize

After downloading the Mac version of Photoshop CS6 using Download Assistant, I attempted to install it as a trial. When I launch the Photoshop CS6 install app, it comes back with "We've encountered the following issues -- installer failed to initialize." It suggested Adobe Support Advisor be downloaded to detect the problem. I downloaded and ran that. It comes back with "Inspection could not identify any issues. Please contact Adobe Support for further assistance." So here I am...

At first download the Adobe applciation manager manually from the locations:
Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4774&fileID=4438
Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4773&fileID=4437
Later If you are still facing issue. Rename Media_db, pdb and OOBE folder.
The path for the above files will be:
1: OOBE
Windows: C>Program files or Program files(x86)>Common files>Adobe>OOBE and rename the OOBE folder to like (OOBEold).
Mac OS X : Macintosh HD>Library>Applciation support>Adobe>OOBE .
Note: The library will be hidden in Mac OS X version 10.7 and later you can access the hidden library ie the root library by In the Finder, choose Go > Go To Folder.
In the Go To Folder dialog, type ~/Library and click Go to access the hidden library.
2:Location of Media_db, pdb files.
Windows: C>Program files or Program files(x86)>Common files>Adobe>Caps
Mac OS X : Macintosh HD>Library>Applciation support>Adobe>Caps.
After renaming OOBE, Media_db, pdb files run the Application manager which was downloaded and if the issue still persists then:
Create a new Administartor account and the restart the computer and log in back to the created new admin account , log in to CCm account and then try it will work.

Where did you get the installer file from?

Have been installing CS6 manually across our site for about a week, suddenly the install has stopped working and I receive the following error;

When I click on the link to "Get Adobe Support Advisor", it says its discontinued! - Irritating

Cabsupportinfo are you installing using a fresh copy of the installation files?
For the specific error I would recommend reviewing your PDApp.log file. You can find details on how to locate and interpret your PDApp.log file at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html. You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover.
