AMT subsystem failure error:1

I have found a problem with CS4. After reinstal it doesn´t run and a window with AMT subsystem failure open. I tried remove it and reinstal it. Doesnt work and de instalation program show problems. What could I do to solve this?

You may need to do something with the FLEXnet service. See this document: Error "Licensing for this product has stopped working" when you launch Acrobat 9 or Adobe Creative Suite 4 products

  • AMT Subsystem Failure Error: 11

    I just downloaded a trial version of Fireworks on a Mac Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5 running MacOS X 10.5.7.
    This is the error message:
    AMT Subsystem Failure
    (a bunch of text saying that you need to restart)
    Error: 11
    Restarting didn't work. Calling tech support was a complete waste of time. They don't support trial versions. I've been an Adobe (Aldus/Macromedia) customer for over 15 years. Nice customer service Adobe.
    They directed me here. Anyone have any suggestions?

    In my case it wasn't a licensing issue. I had a previously installed version of Fireworks CS4 Beta. In had to run Adobe Cleanscript (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html) and uninstall Fireworks CS4 completely and then reinstall Fireworks from my main CS4 disc. Then it started right up.

  • AMT Subsystem Failure Error is Ridiculous!

    So, I finally decided to purchase my very own copy of CS3 several months ago (about 6) after using CS2 at work for a number of years. I figured it would be a good time to get it since I am a college student right now so I qualified for the academic version (an old one, having gone back after many years out, but a college student none-the-less...LOL!) It has been nothing but problems since I got it! I never experienced anything like this with Adobe Product before and I have been using them for over 20 year (all the way back to Aldus Pagemaker even!)
    It worked great for about 4 months, not a problem at all, then all of the sudden I started getting this stupid AMT failure message:
    AMT Subsystem Failure
    The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall or call customer support.
    I tried calling support (outsourced support obviously, as they were VERY hard to understand on the phone and I talked to no less than three different people). Removed and reinstalled only to have it creep back up over and over again. I got sick of removing and reinstalling it and since Adobe was no help at all started troubleshooting and logging the problem.
    Could this be a RAM issue? My dual core desktop iMac is maxed out, so if it is there is nothing more I can do. :(
    Basically, when I start the machine I can open all my CS programs first, before any other programs (AI, ID, PS, DW, and Acrobat). I am pretty much good to go and can then open all my other programs and begin working for the day. But, if one of the CS3 programs stalls on me, which seems to happen daily, causing me to force quit it. It will not longer open and gives me the error message above.
    Then I have to restart my blasted machine and start all over, with all programs opening fine after the restart. Anyone else got any theories or has Adobe even addressed this AMT failure which, judging from a Google Search, seems to be a widespread problem across both PC and Mac platforms?
    My initial thought is it's a RAM issue because all works fine after a restart and only starts acting up as the day goes on, forcing another restart to begin any kind of work flow again.

    I have the following tail ends of the log files that might help in
    debugging this issue:

    It looks as if a path name has been overwritten (buffer overflow?) by rubbish, causing AMT to crash.

  • I am getting an "AMT Subsystem Failure" Error 150:30 when I go to edit pictures in PSE 8.

    It actually kicks me out and restarts my computer.  I received the above message after I went back in "safe mode".  What can I do to repair this problem so I do not have to un-install and lose my actions after my re-install?

  • I have an error 130:9 in Photoshop Elements associated with AMT Subsystem failure. I have tried Licencerecovery109. Did not work. I cannot uninstall Photoshop Elements. I get an error 1316 and the program is reinstalled. Please advise.

    I have screen dumps of the errors but cannot paste them

    Hi Hans
    Just to summarise:
    If I run Photoshop Elements I get a window headed "AMT Subsystem failure".  It states "This product has a problem which requires that you restart your computer before it can be launched. If you continue to see this message etc. contact Adobe Technical Support etc. Error 130:9. http etc".
    I have tried to run LicenceRecovery 109. This did not work. I have tried other suggestions on the internet. Nothing worked. This included resetting FLexnet.
    I then tried to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop Elements. There is no repair facility. The uninstall gets about 95% through and then stops and replaces all the files. I get a window headed "Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 Setup".  It states "Error 1316. A network error while trying to read from the file C:\windows\installer\adobe photoshop elements 8.0.msi."
    That is the details of the two screen dumps which I have.
    Please advise.

  • Help with error: "AMT Subsystem Failure. The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically..."

    I did a system restore to a previous date to resolve a conflict with a beta license of PSD CS5. I am a software tester and my boss gave me
    a CS5 beta. Now,  the beta CS5 is uninstalled  but when I open CS3, I get this error:
    "AMT Subsystem Failure. The licensing subsystem has failed
    catastrophically. Please reinstall or call support."
    My copy of CS3 was licensed to a company which has since shut down for business; I do not have any CS3
    reinstall disc.
    I restored to a date prior to my installation of the CS5 beta. I ensured that
    there are no CS5 files on my computer, and that the CS
    3 folder *looks* unchanged. I have tried restoring to another restore point
    date, and I got the same error. I cannot repair my CS3 install without a CS3 install disc.
    The CS5 beta now will not install either. This CS5 beta is working fine on the work computer which is comparable to my laptop with this problem.
    Now I have no working license of PSD. Please advise. Adobe support advised me to ask here. Yay.
    Operating System: Windows Vista 32 bit

    Huh? What help do you hope to get on a public user to user forum about Beta software (aside from the fact that in doing so, you broke the rules and spirit of the NDA)? Ask your prerelease program manager and use the respective non-public forums. The rest is beside the point - if you don't have backups of your installers, then you probably never really owned it and should long have deactivated it, because the package was sold to some unfortunate soul who doesn't even know that he's missing an activation (which you used all the time).

  • AMT Subsystem Failure with Acrobat Reader 10.1.3

    I'm getting AMT Subsystem Failure when trying to open .jpg files in Acrobat Reader. Message says Error: 1. Never had this problem before today (16/4/12). Can't find a solution anywhere. My OS is Windows 7 64.Can anyone help?

    My mistake. It was PSE 8 that was causing the problem. Can view .jpg's in other viewers (PSE 8 had been default viewer). Have now installed a trial version of PSE 10 and everything fine.

  • 'AMT Subsystem Failure'

    Hello,
    My InDesign CS4 won't open despite restarting as the 'AMT Subsystem Failure' message suggests (Error code: 5).
    This is after finding that InDesign opened with no Workspaces and no Welcome screen - there seemed to be no way of fixing this.
    I've had a look at forums and tried general troubleshooting methods i.e: checking routes to 'InDesign Defaults' and 'InDesign SavedData' folders in the preferences and cache folders.
    I've also tried to reset the preferences by using cmd+alt+ctrl+shift on InDesign opening, but still no luck.
    I'd be very grateful if someone could give me some advice.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Migration means copying files from a previous installation. Doing an in-place upgrade of the OS without reinstalling the applications would be a problem as well.
    But you should also see Error: "The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically." when you start a Creative Suite 3.x application as this could be a permissions issue.

  • AMT subsystem failure.  The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically you must reinstall or call customer support.  Which never answers.  I have reinstalled with the same issues not sure whatelse to do?

    this message appear when I launch any program within the CS3 suite
    AMT subsystem failure.  The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically you must reinstall or call customer support.  I call automated system which refers me to this site.  I have reinstalled with the same issues not sure what else to do?

  • AMT subsystem failure-The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically-HELP PLEASE!

    Help!
    I'm using CS3.  First I was using it on XP.  Got my new computer and have been using it on Windows 7 pro for 6 months now with no problems.  Yesterday my Java updated, and now CS3 suite does not work. 
    1st, I got the:  "Licensing for this product has stopped working—You cannot use this product at this time. YOU MUST REPAIR THE PROBLEM BY UNINSTALLING  and then reinstalling this product or by contacting your IT administrator or Adobe customer support for help."  message. 
    Since it said to REINSTALL, that's what I did.  Only it would not install. 
    Adobe customer service is a joke.  They with their non USA thick accents could not offer any help.  They seemed stupid around this issue.
    Then I did a system restore thinking I can go back to "things" before all the drama started. 
    Instead of fixing things, I got other message:  "AMT subsystem failure—The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically.  You must reinstall or call customer support." 
    Again, tried to reinstall, and still will not allow me to install. 
    PLEASE HELP!  I USE PHOTOSHOP EVERYDAY!

  • When trying to launch Acrobat 9.0 from Creative Suite 4 it gives the error:" the Licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically" AMT subsystem failure

    Tried all the steps from the Knowldege base and ran the Clean script CS4but still the issue persists, installed the License Recovery Tool still the same problem

    Time to call techcnial support. They handle installation issues.

  • "AMT Subsystem Failure..." WTF?

    Got that dreaded message when attempting to launch
    Dreamweaver CS3 today, followed by: "The licensing subsystem has
    failed catastrophically. you must reinstall or call customer
    support." I searched this forum, and found a thread with links to a
    couple of articles here with instructions on how to attempt to
    recover from the problem. Unfortunately, nothing worked (there were
    no permission issues on the folder buried in Library/Application
    Support, which appears to be the most like cause on Macs).
    Before I go through the hassle of
    deactivation/reinstallation, is there something else I should be
    worried about, and/or trying to fix? Also, I've been putting off
    upgrading to Leopard on this MacPro (my primary machine), and am
    wondering if I should just bite the bullet and do it since I'm
    gonna have to reinstall anyway? Would that be crazy under the
    circumstances?
    Thanks for any and all insight you might be able to offer!

    The error is: OLAP DML Error "SQL cursor 'C1' is not open". This happens when the OLAP DML has been asked to run a SELECT query, but the query fails for some reason. In this case it is easy to see that the problem is bad generated SQL.
    WHERE
    ((T1_BAL_MTH = T1_BAL_MTH)
    AND (EMPTY PROXY CONDITION)) The 'EMPTY PROXY CONDITION' shows up when something goes wrong during SQL generation. It is usually caused by an error in the cube mapping, although it could be any number of things. If this is a partitioned cube, then the EMPTY PROXY CONDITION is probably a placeholder for an in list. For example, if you are partitioned by time, then it would need to be something like this:
    WHERE
    ((T1_BAL_MTH = T1_BAL_MTH)
    AND T1_BAL_MTH IN (...)
    The fact that the condition above is a self join on the fact table, T1_BAL_MTH = T1_BAL_MTH, suggests to me that you should check the Join Condition between the cube and the time dimension. If you export the XML for a cube to an XML template, then you should look for entries of the form
    <CubeDimensionalityMap>
    One of these should mention the time dimension, and my guess is that the problem lies there.

    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.
