Certain Components Won't Install

I am having an issue installing my copy of CS3 Web Premium on my laptop. I meet all of the minimum requirements for the install so I know that is not the problem. After the install screen has completed and finishes it tells me that Certain Components could not be installed. The only things that installed properly were the Flash Player Plug-In, Adobe Reader 8 Pro, and the Shared Components portion even though I set it to install the entire package suite. I have looked around these forums as well as other places on the web and none of the advice has helped. I used the CS3 Clean program as stated in a topic for a similar issue here to fully uninstall all Adobe products and wipe the registry of any keys associated with them and that still didn't work. I have turned off my Window's Firewall as well as my AntiVirus and that still doesn't seem to do the trick. I literally have tried everything shy of a total format of my HD which I don't really feel would be necessary and I wouldn't do it even if that was the problem.
Is there anything else I can try to fix this issue? I would hate to have spent $600 for a program that doesn't work properly. Thanks in advance.

Why don't you call Adobe Tech Support if everything you tried has failed? Installation issues are handled for free.

  • 9i won't install oo4o components

    I'm trying to install 9i on a Win98 machine and it won't install the oo4o dll's. There's no oo4e folder in the oracle directory tree. I've installed three times now.
    I need them for a VB database application. I keep getting Runtime Error 429 ActiveX component can't create object.
    Can anyone explain what might be wrong?
    Thaknks

    I have 9i on multiple Win98 machines here. But on this one, it just won't install some of the client files. ODBC, oo4e, and ole are missing.
    Is there something in the pc's configuration that could prevent these files from being loaded?

  • Need configure wifi, but adobe air cd won't install, why?

    Am trying to configure wifi after installing new motorola wireless modem sbg901 and am trying to run the cd wifi instrux.
    It asks to install Adobe Air, but it won't install. Why can't I install Adobe Air?

    Thanks for that link.  Got it downloaded.
    It appears that something is wrong with my laptop... because the downloaded file stalls at the same point as the disc.  While it still says "Installing Shared components".  This is when the green progress bars stop(about 10% of the way) and the HDD activiity light on the laptop stops as well.
    Back when I reinstalled windows, I had some issues updating.  Once I got to a certain point, one of the updates would render my laptop screen completely blank.... so after reinstalling a few times, I stopped installing updates at a certain point... though I did make it to Service Pack 2.
    That's the only reason I can think of, as to why the program won't install. It's really odd.
    BTW:  I did shut down the antivirus while attemptinng Premiere install.

  • Premiere CS3 Won't Install

    I'm finishing the build from Hades. I followed the Matrox system recommendations, apparently they had an easier time than I did. I finally resolved my issues with my video card, now Premiere and Encore won't install!
    System Info: Tyan Tempest 5400 (socket 771) motherboard, two Xeon Quad core E5450 CPUs, one ATI Radeon Sapphire HD 3870 1 gig on-board ram, two 2 gig FB DIMM 667 RAM sticks. Software version Premiere Pro CS3.
    I'm fairly certain I've met the minimum system requirements - I followed one of Matrox's highest system builds (at the time). The version of XP I bought already had Service Pack 2. As far as I can tell, I've loaded all my drivers. I have two separate 1 TB drives (7200 RPM). My DirectX version is 9.
    The install process for both Premeire and Encore appear to proceed normally. The summary screen simply notes:
    "Successfully installed 2 component(s):
    Adobe Preiere Pro CS3 Third Party Content
    Shared components
    Errors: 2 component(s):
    Adobe Premiere Pro CS3
    Component install failed
    Shared components
    Component install failed"
    I bought my RTX2 last summer, but building my house, technical diffulties with my system and my mother's death delayed getting this unit assembled.
    I tried uninstalling using add/remove programs, with the same results.  I also tried using two different DVD drives.
    I started a post on the Matrox forum site.  It looks like I have them stumped...
    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    OK, you've got a "clean system," and I assume that you have not had a "trial" version of CS3 installed on it, right?
    I'm going to throw out some ideas on Adobe program installation. These are distilled from various Adobe fora. Some might NOT apply to PrPro, but many might.
    1.) download and install the lastet Adobe Flash Player (some Adobe programs need it to install properly)
    2.) download and install the latest Apple QT Player (some PC users get by just fine without it, but a few Adobe programs want to see it.
    3.) download and install the latest video and audio drivers. Update any firmware.
    4.) turn OFF ALL anti-virus, spyware and pop-up blockers (including any in IE, if you have it, or any other browser). Also turn off
         Windows Messenger and Windows Indexing.
    5.) make sure that you are logged-in as an Administrator
    6.) as you got an installation error, I would Remove both Adobe programs (Add/Remove Programs) and also run Adobe's CleanScript. I think that
         this might be better than doing a Repair Install, though you can certainly try it first.
    7.) if it still fails, try an installation from a Safe Mode boot. I *think* that this will only work for PS and Illustrator, and NOT for PrPro.
    8.) if it still fails, and I hate to even suggest this - remove the Matrox card and all drivers, and try again. Given your efforts to get the box up and
         running WITH the Matrox, I'd use this as a total "last resort."
    Good luck, and I hope that something, prior to #8 works for you,

  • Need to Download Premiere Pro CS3 (CD won't install)

    Hi there,
    My laptop's HDD recently crashed, and when I went to reinstall the Premiere Pro CS3 cd, I get to the screen where install progess is shown (after I've entered my S/N).  The installer seems to hang on 'instaling 3rd party content' and takes FOREVER for the green bar to 'move'.  Then, after hours of letting it sit, I get a window that says install has failed... pretty sure that it said 3rd party content DID install, but PP itself and something else did not.  I tried twice, with the same result.
    The CD is clean, no real scratches... just been sitting in its case for years.
    FWIW, I'm running Vista 32bit. 
    I'm hoping there's some CS3 files still hidden on Adobe.com that I can DL in place of the CD.
    Don't really edit from home much anymore. Just need my copy of PP to work so I can recut my resume reel, which is a fairly important task. 
    Thanks,
    Joe

  • Windows 8 Won't Install over 29 Updates

    I have an ASUS laptop and about 3 months ago it got some updates that it won't install. It downloads and says it installs them, and when I go to restart the computer it gets halfway done and says "failure to configure updates, reverting changes."

  • ITunes won't install on my computer, Windows 7 64 bit.

    The computer is current on Windows update. I originally had iTunes installed and it worked fine, but would absolutely NOT update-- it would download the first 25.50 MB, then never finish downloading the rest of it, time out, and give me an error message. I just got an iPhone 5, so I can't connect my iPhone to my computer anyway, because it requires iTunes 10.7 to work.
    After restarting and trying a variety of fixes to see if I could get it to work, I decided to uninstall iTunes AND ALL OTHER APPLE PRODUCTS, just to be safe, ran a complete hard drive check on both my main and secondary hard drives to make sure there were no errors, and try installing it again from scratch.
    But now, the installer will download, but it won't install anything. If I double-click, or right click and hit Run as Administrator, it pulls up a dialog box briefly, then closes out. It will not run. It does not give an error, it just pops up a dialog box then closes without telling me anything. At all. I've deleted it, redownloaded it, restarted, verified that my computer is up to date at least 5 times, and it never, ever, works.
    I just ran across another suggested fix that suggested I extract the files and try installing the individual components separately. When I tried doing that, I got this error message:
    !   C:\Users\Chloe\Downloads\iTunes64Setup.exe: The archive is corrupt
    So. What the **** is going on? I am downloading directly from Apple. If I could download the entire ~300+ MB file directly to see if it would work, I would, but I can't find it anywhere. I am really frustrated with how much time this has taken. Otherwise, my computer runs fine.
    I've downloaded iTunes on Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome, I also tried deleting all cookies and temporary internet files in between installations. I've tried a lot of stuff. This is driving me absolutely bonkers.
    Thanks for any help you've got.
    I'd be happy to share any other computer information that might be pertinent, just ask.

    Hi sahgin,
    The issue eventually resolved itself, I still don't really know why. I kept up with Windows update, and attempted downloading iTunes again from the Apple website, and it just... worked. It now works fine. I don't know why it took approximately 4 months to work, though.
    I'm sorry I don't have any more helpful information. Posting here was my last resort, and clearly Apple never bothered to reply.

  • Docs to go won't install on my mac

    Hi,
    I've recently bought a palm TX, and have been experiencing trouble  with the included software apps for my mac.
    I've installed palm desktop, and some of the other apps such as adobe reader, but for some reason docs to go won't install.
    i can load the disk image off the CD, click on the VISE installer icon, accept the terms of use, but it get's stuck when the progress bar appears.  the last thing it says before "not responding" is...
    items to install 240
    "searching  [computer name]"
    or something along those lines
    I've tried repairing disk permissions, i'm logged in on the admin account, reinstalled palm desktop and there are no other apps running.
    I'm using OSX 10.4.11 (tiger), a palm TX, and the palm desktop version is 4.2.2
    I've also tried downloading 4.2.1 rev D but same result.
    please help!
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    Thanks for your reply,
    The version included on the CD is Docs to go ver 7.  According to the datavis website, it's mac compatible, and it certainly looks like a mac compatible installation procedure.
     I've found getting technical help from datavis pretty much impossible, as i need a registration no. to e-mail for support, and as I can't even install the program, I've got no registration no.
    Is there anyone else out there with a TX using docs to go on their mac???

  • ITunes download said I needed to uninstall first. Followed instructions on how to uninstall. Everything worked except for iTunes itself and it won't uninstall but won't install either. Help!

    I followed the instructions for the uninstall as found on the website, but all of the software except for iTunes uninstalled successfully. Now it won't uninstall and the updated version won't instal either and I have no idea what to do. I'm very frustrated at this point as I've tried everything on the support website.

    Perfect, thanks.
    "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2330."
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • The additional components needed to install mac os x cant be found

    help, i did a clean reinstall using a USB, now its saying "the additional components needed to install mac os x cant be found" what do i do? i wiped my whole computer!...

    Not on my late 2011 15" MBP. When I use just Cammond+r it takes me to the built in recovery HD.
    Even with no HDD in the system Command+r gives me nothing, no options at all and certainly not the Internet Recovery system.
    Command+Option+r gives me the Internet Recovery system with or without a HDD in the system and with or without a Recovery HD partition on the internal drive.
    So it would seem it is different for different models and whether or not there is or isn't a recovery partition on the internal drive.
    So for anyone reading this thread try both Command+r and Command+Option+r to boot the computer from the Apple Online Lion Internet Recovery system.
    Thanks.

  • Adobe Flasher Won't Install

    I've have tried everything I can think of to try to install
    adobe flasher. I had it on this computer for a long time and now it
    just won't install properly. Everytime i try to install it, it says
    that I need to install the Active X. I then try to install Active
    X, but I always get a note that tells me that the instalation
    failed. I can't view certain pictures and video. I can't seem to
    properly download the correct Active X control or there maybe
    another problem. Thanks for any information.

    The number one reason that the ActiveX installer fails to
    install on IE are due to incorrect permissions in the system
    registry. We have solved hundreds of these Windows system
    permissions with Microsoft’s SubInACL tool.
    Note: This is strictly for Windows IE, these issues do not
    occur on other browsers such as Firefox.
    www.firefox.com
    To fix these Windows system registry permission conflicts you
    can use Microsoft’s SubInACL tool.
    Warning: The following solution involves the Windows System
    Registry. Editing or manipulating the registry incorrectly can
    result in serious system damage which may require re-installation
    of the operating system. If you are not comfortable editing the
    registry, then take your system to a professional. If you choose to
    proceed, then it is essential that you create a complete system
    backup and a Windows System Restore Point before proceeding.
    Please download Microsoft’s tool to your desktop.
    http://www.supportflash.com/reset_min.zip
    1. Login as the User that has the incorrect permissions in
    the system registy
    2. unzip the “reset_minimal.cmd” and the
    “subinacl.exe” to the desktop
    *** Make sure both files are on the desktop
    3. Close out all applications
    4. Run the “reset.cmd” file
    5. It will open a DOS like terminal and start running through
    registry keys
    6. When it is finished it will say “press any key to
    continue”
    7. At this point you can download the latest Flash Player
    from here:

  • CS3 InDesign won't install, Mac  OS 10.5

    I've just received CS3 Design premium, and InDesign won't install. There is no reason given, just that it won't install. Shared components and Version Cue Server won't install either. I just upgraded to Leopard on a g5 Intel system. Any ideas on what to do next?

    CS3 InDesign won't install, Mac OS 10.5
    Hi Darlene,
    I think I just got lucky - it hesitated a few times then finally clicked.
    One of the previous posters suggested to not install Version Cue, so I
    clicked that one off. Did you repair the permissions and restart before
    installing? Spin around 3 times clicking your heels saying, there's no
    program like InDesign?
    If you can stay in InD 2 I would suggest that, expecially if you use a lot
    of clipping paths. InD3 has a bug there that won't see interior paths, so
    you have to go back into Photoshop to rework the image. If I had only know
    that before.....
    Good luck!

  • Onlocation CS3 won't install on Vista 64

    i have ppcs3. it came with encore and onlocation.
    when i try to open onlocation it tells me that the program has stopped working.
    any ideas?

    Well I have same problem. I know photoshop has never been the most user friendly bit of software but what good is it if you can't install it?
    The dialog with the progress bar appears for about 5 seconds and then absolutly nothing more. I am the laptop's admin. It had the majority of it's 320GB HD available. 4GB of memory and a very good display.
    I certainly won't be paying good money for something that won't install on a brand new machine.
    The most annoying thing about the whole thing is there isn't even an error message to indicate why the process was aborted.

  • INDesign CS3 won't install

    I've been searching threads for days now and nothing i try works
    I am trying to install CS3 on a G5 Mac, OSX 10.4.11. I have CS on this computer, tried the CS4 trial, decided to stay with CS3 which I am had on a deceased computer that din't have any Adobe on it except things like reader, and whatever comes with the Mac OS. When I try to load, I get everything but INDesign won't install. Tried multiple time, tried it on another computer (a G4) with similar history and the same result. I've done an uninstall on INDD4, I've cleaned preference files, tossed Colorsync profiles. At first, when I tried to install i would get an message asking for theINDD4 disk. I got rid of that when I dumped the color sync files. and now it installs everything except INDD. I'm afraid to try the clean script.
    What do you suggest?

    Hi Mylenium
         After updating the adobe license didn´t work any longer for the
    second time, since I bought. First time CS3 cleaning tool was the
    solution. But this time it is not possible just to open the
    CS3cleaning tool document(PDF)- not with adobe reader, also not with
    foxit for example. I removed all adobe stuff to install again, but
    installation doesn´t work for  the important components- photoshop
    etc. At first also adobe reader didn´t work (System told me, to
    install photoshop before:-) But after some deinstallation and
    reinstallation now just the new downloaded adobe reader X happily
    works again. Only solution to reinstall the whole system?? (medion
    professional PC, windows vista 5,0 - 2 GB, 32 Bit)
         Thank you for help
