Cant reinstall GoLive 6.0.

I just did a clean install of Windows XP, and I cannot reinstall GoLive 6.0. I get the message "Invalid Serial Number". I saw the thread posted a few months back, but no solution was posted. I just spoke to knowledgeable Adobe Technical Support representative. He confirmed my serial number was valid, but he could not find a fix. However, something he said made me think this could be a Windows or Internet Explorer 7 issue. I have three computers, but unfortunately all are up to date Windows-wise (SP2 & I.E. 7), and I get the same error on all of them.
So, has anyone else hit this problem, and more importantly figured out how to solve it? This is really hurting me. Aside from the cost to upgrade, I dont have time to learn new software right now. And I really need to edit my site.
One more question: Will GoLive 5.0 work on Windows XP? (And would I be able to open and edit the site I created on GoLive 6.0)?
- jim

I'll join in here, but take all my details as possibly wrong and check behind me...I'm having a similar problem and have run it through tech support w/o resolution yet, either. I thought I might do an experimental workaround, because I have it running fine on another computer with XP Home, so I copied my 6.0_ENG from Program Files >> Adobe>>GoLive 6.0_ENG, made a duplicate folder on the second computer (XP Pro)and pasted it in. I launched via GoLive.exe (It's actually 6.0.1.0) directly and I got an error message, "Cannot Retrieve Serial Number Information." I thought, well maybe that's stored in the preferences file, so I went to copy/paste that, too, into the Doc & Settings Application Data>> but what's probably my 5.0 preferences file was already there, and (inside an Adobe folder, not an Office or Outlook folder) the .prf extension was assigned to open with MS Outlook. Maybe the .prf extension has been reassigned/overridden???? Changing it to open w/ GoLive through Control Panel >> Folders just messes up Outlook. I don't know if that's even where the serial number is stored, but perhaps the problem might lie with the confused extensions. Anybody else showing a potential conflict like this?
(And to the above, mine is an upgrade from 5.0 Educational version but I am not following a clean XP install, just trying to add GoLive to a computer that has other issues that I'm trying to unscramble so I can just work on one (Large) site). I installed 5.0 with no problem and can use that v.

  • I need help!!!! i cant reinstall itunes without the itunes64 folder and i already deleted every aspect of itunes from the computer i need help

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page).
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    Here's a screenshot showing the particular links on the page that you should be clicking:
    After clicking one of the circled links, you should be taken to another page, and after a few seconds you should see a download dialog appear for the msicuu2.exe file. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like for me in Firefox:
    Choose to Save the file. If the dialog box does not appear for you, click the link on the page that says "CLICK HERE IF IT DOES NOT". Here's a screenshot of the page with the relevant link circled:
    When the dialog appears, choose to save the file.
    (2) Go to the Downloads area for your Web browser. Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    What about the incredable lag time from clicking on a program to the time it opens (or the time till the loading screen starts)? I wish I could record it and play it so I could see if thats normal from other members... the icon just sitting there for over 35 second (I just counted 36 till the loading screen popped up) at first I thought it was me not clicking hard enought cuz the mouse button I have is real stiff (any ideas on that?) but no it takes that long just to get to the app loading screen... this happens every time same amount of time with the 3 programs I use the most, prolly more but I know for a fact world of warcraft, uTorrent, and Google Chrome. I would just chalk it up to slow hardware but they load real quick in windows 7 and once this bad spot is loaded the program runs so fast and nice afterword. Maybe some tweeks? I wonder if this would happen in Snow?
    The coment "few outdated programs" Ive seen alot its not just a few its a lot and since games are not Apple's strong point I would think they would want to keep as many as they could...
    An example of the rants you will see from a lot here. Don't be put off as these problems are generally user specific, and these same old comments come out after the release of every OSX I can remember. When Lion is upgraded  to the next OSX you can gaurentee these forums will be full of people screaming about how great Lion was. Happened with Tiger, Leopard and Snow Leopard.
    So come to think of it you may be better off Googling sites that give you unbiased views on Lion, rather than expect any positive comments here. For every one complaint there are probably 100,000 people with no issues.
    Cheers

  • Cant reinstall Safari on leopard 10.5.4

    Cant reinstall Safari on leopard 10.5.4
    You cannot install Safari on this volume. This update requires Mac OS X 10.5.2 or newer.

    CA MacGirl
    It sounds like he dragged the alias of Safari off the dock. That does not remove the actual application. The application should still be in your applications folder. You might check and see. If it is still there you can drag it back to the dock from the applications folder and a new alias of the application will be back in the dock.

  • Reinstall Golive 8.01 (Upgrade/ download) to iMac 10.6.3

    How can I reinstall Golive from my old iMac 10.4.11 to the new one 10.6.3?
    I copied GL from the application folder, but after starting it tells me:
    "Bei einer erforderlichen Programmbibliothek wurde ein Fehler erkannt; die Anwendung kann nicht weiter ausgeführt werden. Installieren Sie die Anwendung neu. (-8)"
    "With a required program library, an error is detected, the application can not continue running. Install the application again. (-8)."
    I have only an old GL 6.0 on CD, but my 8.0 files cannot be opened with this.
    So what can I do?

    That is not always a good idea. Running the installer is better.

    Tryout versions are here. These accept serial numbers to become full versions. I do not know how they behave as upgrades.
    You're probably better off keeping your old iMac to run GoLive. As you introduce newer hardware and operating systems, more quirks may appear in GoLive. GoLive was never intended for Intel processors or Snow Leopard.

  • Cant reinstall osx lion on new hard drive

    I recently have been having problems with my 2007 Macbook 2,1 (yeah, I know it's old but it works...or worked anyway) taking forever to boot up.  So, I backed up all of my data to an external drive, erased the drive and then attempted to reinstall osx lion (which was the current os on the machine prior to erasing) via the internet recovery option as I no longer have the original start up disc.  The progress bar gets all the way to the end and then just takes me back to the main OSX utilities page.  Tried reformatting the drive again and same thing.  So then I resorted to creating a bootable thumb drive.  I booted back into OSX utilities via this drive and tried to reinstall this way only to get an error message that it cant download additional files needed to install osx.
    Next up, I used a borrowed mac, redownloaded the OSX installer from the app store and installed it on an external drive.  I then booted my machine from the ext. drive into OSX lion, downloaded the installer again and attempted to install it on to my HD only to get an error message that the file may be corrupt or may have been tampered with.  At this point, i went to the Apple store.  The guy ran some checks but ultimately was also unable to reinstall the os.  He even tried going back down to 10.6.8.  So he told me this was a sign that the hard drive was bad and that they have no way of actually diagnosing it on a machine that old.
    So, I went and bought a new WD 320G internal drive to replace the "bad" one in the machine.  I then went through all of the steps above again and still have had no luck getting the os back on the machine.  So at this point I am at a total loss.  Is the computer just dead or is there anything else I could possibly try?

    Did you prep the new drive correctly? You also need to install Snow Leopard on the new drive and update it to 10.6.8.
    Drive Partition and Format
    1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    If you are preparing an external or a non-startup drive, then open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    In the following you can skip the part for partitioning and formatting if you've done the above already.
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • I'm trying to uninstall firefox and reinstall it as it keeps freezing, but it wont close and so I cant reinstall it. How can I fix this?

    For the last fortnight or so, firefox kept freezing, but it would always fix itself within a minute or so. I did a computer scan and everything was clean and I reduced the number of tabs I had open to try and speed things up, but even when I had only one tab open, it would freeze. Today, it froze and hasnt fixed itself even after 5 hours, and after ive restarted my laptop. A message keeps popping up about 'a script has stopped working' and whatever I press makes no change (stop script, or continue). Im trying to uninstall and reinstall firefox, but I can't uninstall it until the programme is closed. But I cant close it as it is completely frozen. How can I fix this?
    Thanks in advcance.

    Usually uninstalling and reinstalling only helps if the program files are damaged. When the issue if an add-on or setting, then you wouldn't expect to see any change. (I am assuming that you do not remove all your personal data, as that would blow away your bookmarks.)
    If this started after you installed Firefox 27, do you want to test whether Firefox 26 still works smoothly? This article has a link to download the installer from Firefox 26 (you need to visit using Firefox 27 to get the link): [[Install an older version of Firefox]].

  • Time machine backup, now all applications are gone and cant reinstall anything

    My computer froze earlier today and I rebooted and I kept getting the grey loading circle.  Nothing seemed to work so I loaded in safe mode and reinstalled from an earlier version of a backup i had on time machine.  When the computer booted back up, all the applications on the computer were gone, replaced by little grey question marks.  I had no access to the internet and none of my other time machine backups seem to have applications either.
    I have tired command R to reinstall, and that doesnt work either.  I have a copy of 10.6.3 Snow Leopard on disc but that doesnt work either because when I try to launch it, i get a message saying the application needed to launch snow leopard is not available. 
    I am at a loss as to what to do.  I cant install any applications that i know of to let me install snow leopard so I am left with a brick.
    I was running Lion at the time, but i have no backup copy of that, and no way to put it on here.  I would like to do a clean install with snow leopard, any tips you could give me to help would be great.

    What happens when you try to start holding Command and R keys?
    From what I see, it looks like you restored a Snow Leopard backup onto Lion, which damages OS X.
    Now, what I recommend you to do is to insert the Snow Leopard DVD you have and hold the C key while your computer is starting. Then, choose your language, go to Utilities menu (on the menu bar), choose the option to restore a backup and follow the steps.
    After restoring the backup, open  > Software Update, and install the latest version. Finally, upgrade to OS X Lion by downloading it from the Mac App Store
