Cant install Cs3 Trial Version or off of CD.

Hi! I used to use Photoshop Cs3 on my old Windows XP computer. I got a new vista computer a year ago and now I need photoshop again, but when I try to install, I get an err. At first when I ran the setup, I got the err mentioned here: http://www.bloggingdeveloper.com/post/Internal-Error-2739-when-installing-Adobe-CS3-Produc ts.aspx
So I followed those steps and now the setup launches and then says "Critical errs were found in setup: Session has dependencies that can not be satisfied. See setup log for details."....I looked around the internet and could not find anything. I thought something could be wrong with the disk, so I downloaded a trial for Cs3 but I get the exact same err...Also, I noticed if I go to add/manage programs, photoshop cs3 is in there twice. However, I can not get rid of it because when I click on it, it just opens the installer which then crashes with the same err.
Can anybody help me out? I really need to get this installed. Thanks in advance!

I looked at them both, but its mostly focused on uninstalling previous adobe programs, of which I have none (except Adobe Reader). Also, for CS3 it says "There is not much to report here - either it works or it doesn't. Unfortunately there are no specific fixes or steps that could help you in making the installs go through; you can mostly just keep your fingers crossed and follow the generic advice. CS3 products are not fit to run on Windows 7 and may also cause problems on Windows Vista. " and then link it provides to the cleaner tool is broken. It also did not address my problem specificly. Does that mean there is no way to get this program onto my computer, since its vista? I cant afford a newer version right now, so perhaps somebody knows a workaround? Thanks for the reply anyway.

    Fresh install of trial version of Captivate 8 on OS X 10.9.3 - no previous version of Captivate on machine.  I've got lots of crashing to desktop problems right off the bat.  Is there a patch available?  I work at a University and we're evaluating for online courseware - my last experience with Captivate was 5.0.  Anyone else experience this with the trial download?

    Hi there,
    There is no difference in terms of usage and features between a trial version and a licensed version.
    Could you tell me do you get any specific error message when it crashes, or does it crash while using a particular feature, or is it random?
    Can you also try with a different user account (admin) on your MAC, check if it behaves same there?
    Thanks.

  • Cant install flash 11 without turning off IE???

    Cant install Flash 11 without turning off IE???

    This typically occurs when reinstalling the same version, however there can be other cases where your current browser needs to be closed so that Flash Player files can be unlocked.  Are you running into an error where the installer won't continue?

  • Trying to install Illustrator trial version

    I have been attempting to install the trial version of Illustrator CS4 for a couple of hours.  It is telling me that it cannot install until I close all open programs, namely Adobe Bridge.  Adobe Bridge is  not open and I even restarted my computer to make sure of this.  However, it is still saying that installation cannot continue until Adobe Bridge is closed.  Has anybody had this problem?  What do I do?

    scrpbkr,
    You may try to use the CS4 CleanScript, http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html.
    You may try to run the installation in safe mode, if applicable.
    If you still get the error, you may consider taking a turn with the CS3 installation, if any; it has its own CS3 CleanScript., http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html.

  • Flash CS3 trial version - Dreamweaver 8 won't work anymore

    I recently installed the trial version of Flash CS3. It
    worked fine, but after the 30 day evaluation period, Dreamweaver 8,
    an app I've had installed for a few years now ceases to work. It
    loads up, then immediately crashes. Prior to that, both apps worked
    fine concurrently.
    I uninstalled the Flash CS3 trial version. Still, Dreamweaver
    8 crashes.
    I found the CS3Clean Script, ran that, and Dreamweaver 8
    still crashes.
    I'm positive this has something to do with the 30 day
    evaluation period, because I was using Dreamweaver fine yesterday.
    Any ideas on how I can fix this?
    I've tried re-installing Dreamweaver along with the 8.0.2
    update and still get the same results.
    I have Flash 8 installed already, if that helps.
    Thanks.

    This really depends on what exactly you want to do.
    To export Photos from iPhoto to the Finder just use the Export command: file -> Export
    This User Tip
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
    has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
    But this will not save you any disk space unless you also delete the photos from iPhoto.
    If you want to move the Library to a flash drive: first make sure it's big enough.
    Then make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the Flash Drive.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • CS3 Trial version

    Yes, no problem. I had the DW8 trial, it expired and then I

    without problems with a full 30 days worth of testing. They

  • Dreamweaver CS3  trial version installation

    Not able to install dreamweaver CS3 trial version in Windows
    XP. Is there any compatibility issue is there?

    Sorry for late reply.
    The error message was:
    A problem was encountered while trying to load the trial
    period for Adobe Dreamweaver CS3.
    Click Quit to see if restarting your computer or reinstalling
    the software fixes the problem. Otherwise click Continue to display
    a screen where you can enter a valid serial number to begin using
    the product without trial.
    and one more correction my PC has Windows Vista. So is there
    any compatibility issue?

  • Is it possible to install previous TRIAL versions of previous versions of Adobe Creative Cloud Software?

    Look, I'm just testing the trial versions right now.  Don't try to troubleshoot something that I don't ask; this is what I'm looking to accomplish:
    Is it possible to install a trial version of any of the Adobe Creative Cloud software in a previous version?  By that, I am referring to the following:
    I want to install a trial version of Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014; NOT Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014.1.  If you notice, I want to reinstall a trial version of the previous release.  Don't ask why, you'll just laugh for my stupid reason, but I'm merely wondering if it is possible.  Creative Cloud now only offers trials of the newest versions, and I want to install trails of previous versions for my own, personal reasons.  Is this possible to do with creative cloud, or must I do it some other way?
    Is it also possible to obtain the physical installation files so that I won't have to always go through creative cloud to download them again (and then I can just set it up without being connected to the internet)?

    The previous version option is only available to individuals which have a membership.  The availability of previous version titles available is dictated by the computer meeting the minimum system requirements and the entitlement of the membership to access the requested applications.  To future viewers of this discussion if you are unsure what software titles your membership is entitled to please contact our support team directly at Contact Customer Care.

  • Is there a way in install a trial version of Project server on a Licensed edition server of sharepoint 2013?

    Is there a way in install a trial version of Project server on a Licensed edition server of sharepoint 2013? Is there anyway around this or do I need to make a new box all trial versions to test this out?
    Thanks
    James T.F

    James,
    Yes, it is possible , however I wont recommend to do it. Since, once Project trial period expires  you need to uninstall project server which can not be done without uninstalling SharePoint. Unless you are willing to rebuild the farm once your
    testing is completed

    or  school need to buy a license.

    I don't see that anything would stop you installing the trial, though it is not for that and the license might forbid it, not sure. But the trial lasts 30 days and cannot be extended or repeated. You are expected to buy software used in teaching, though there may be academic discounts.
