'Configuration Error: 6' appears when attempting to open Photoshop on new Macbook

I had Photoshop CS5 installed on my previous Macbook which is now broken, however a friend of mine was able to copy it on to an external hard drive for me. I have now purchased a new Macbook, copied and installed Photoshop on to it from the external, however when I try to open it, 'Error: 6' appears, it states: 'Configuration error. Please uninstall and reinstall the product. if this problem still occurs, please contact Adobe technical support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.'
How do I fix this problem? Thank you in advance.

Install Photoshop from scratch from the original medium, download or DVD.
Whether your friend "copied" Photoshop from your own broken Mac Book or from his machine (the latter would be completely illegal software piracy, by the way), that will NEVER work on your new machine.
First, the Photoshop installation places many auxiliary files outside the Photoshop folder all over the place.  Copying misses a bunch of critical files.
Second, the activation of the installed copy of the activation is tied to the serial numbers on the CPU of the machine and is useless in any other machine.
I repeat:  Install Photoshop from scratch from the original medium, download or DVD.

  • "Internal Error Occurred" appears when .pdf is opened from Outlook 2010 email

    "Internal Error Occurred" appears when .pdf is opened from Outlook 2010 email
    I am absolutely pulling out my hair over this one!!
    PC/Win 7 64bit/Adobe XI/Office 2010
    I have tried Uninstalling and re-installing
    I have tried using an adobe software removal tool
    I have tried modifying the security settings in reader
    I've tried running repair on MS Office
    If you open the .pdf from an email directly, it opens Reader with the error "Internal Error Occurred"
    If you drag and drop the .pdf onto the desktop, and then open it, it opens.
    If you open Adobe Reader FIRST, then open the .pdf from the email, it opens fine.
    ONLY when you open a .pdf from an email with Adobe Reader closed (so Outlook is asking AR to open first, and then present the .pdf) is it behaving this way.
    Hypothesis: Outlook 2010 does not like to open Adobe Reader.
    SO....tell me all of you brilliant geniuses? How do I solve this puzzle and become an end user's hero?
    PS: WorkAround - the only work around I have found for this at present, is that the user first opens up Adobe Reader and lets it run in the background. I pinned the shortcut to his task bar to remind him.

    I have uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and installed Adobe Reader XI and everything works fine. This will be our current fix until a solution is found for the above error

  • Receiving error after installation when attempting to open Cricut Craft room.

    Receiving error after installation when attempting to open Cricut Craft room. It says 'Application Descriptor cannot be found for this application." I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling/installing older version. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the help that fixed my problem for the initial error, but I
    still get the same error when I am writing a U16 2-D array to a range
    of cells. This is strange because the same code is used elsewhere and
    does not throw the error, but the data type is instead a Dbl 2-D
    array.  Unfortunately, I am unable to post the code.  It is
    on a stand-alone classified pc.

  • Load error code 11 when attempting to open .vi from library

    Hello,
    Recently a colleague sent me a .llb containing a VI and sub-VIs of a program needed for my research.  The VI opens correctly but none of the sub-VIs can be found by it and when I attempt to open the sub-VIs I get load error code 11: VI version (6.0) cannot be converted to the current Labview verstion (8.5.1) because is has no block diagram. 
    I am running Vista with 8.5.1 and attempting to open a library of version 6.0.  I do not know what OS the library was compiled on.  (Linux is a possibility)  The colleague who sent me the program does not know either, as he recieved it from another colleague whom he is no longer in contact with.
    I am fairly certain the library was saved with block diagrams, so I do not think that is the source of the error.
    Does anyone know what might be a way to get these sub-VIs working?

    Okay,
    File posted.  Someone please tell me if this has a block diagram on it.

    Message numbers in the 13000 range are usually do to a problem with Genius. I have seen 2 totally different fixes posted here in the forums. edit - Sounds like you already tried method 1.
    *Method 1*
    Rename these files, or delete them
    iTunes Library Genius.itdb
    iTunes Library Extras.itdb
    Try opening iTunes again. And turn off Genius as fast as you can. You can turn it back on later, but first get iTunes running.
    *Method 2*
    Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs
    Choose iTunes, press the Change button and then the repair button.

  • Error when attempt to open Photoshop in Windows Vista, "Some of the application components are missi

    Using Windows Vista-32. Installed CS4 suite & used Photoshop and other components but randomly one day it stopped working. Clicked to open and received error, "Some of the application components are missing from the application directory, Please reinstall the application."
    I uninstalled & reinstalled entire Suite and just Photoshop several times with no success. When I reinstall, I receive error message,
    Adobe Photoshop CS4 English Language Pack
    Error:
    Error 2.
    LangPack (English) for DeviceCentral
    Error:
    Error2.
    Solutions I have used include:
      -  replacing System Color Profile library by creating a different folder on desktop...
      -  replacing Backup Key for Adobe CS4
      -  Administrators & System are listed & permissions for security are set to Full Control
    PLEASE HELP! I have assignment Due Tomorrow & Can't Access Software I PAYED Big $$$$ FOR!
    Phone support won't help w/o paying a fee???

    You've done something to your system, or it's possibly gotten a malware infection.
    You can't even reinstall Photoshop?  Have you tried completely removing it, including running the Creative Suite Removal script? 
    How recently did it work?  Have you tried System Restore?

  • Error message appears when attempting to access apps = server connnectio​n error -1.

    photosmart 6510, operating on a Mac computer. Error message occurs on product screen.  all network and wireless connections appear good. no new product updates available. The apps function was previously working OK until last 2 weeks

    Hello,
    The first thing I would do is follow step six in this document to set a static IP: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c02817031&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=4023246&tmp​...
    When it askes for DNS information, enter in Google's DNS. Preferred DNS = 8.8.8.8 Alt DNS = 8.8.4.4
    Once that is done make sure to turn the printer off and back on and try the apps again.  If you are still having trouble, try turning off your router and the printer.  Turn the router back on first, and leave the printer off untill the router looks like it is stable.  Once the router is stable, turn the printer on and try the apps.
    If that does not help, if you could provide me with the following information it would help me out. First, who is your ISP( Internet Service Provider, i.e. Comcast, AT&T, Verizon, ect.)? Second, who is the maker of your router? Lastly, what is the model number and firmware version of your router?

  • AOL offline message when attempting to send mail on new Macbook air yosemite OS despite fixes. Not sure how to fix.

    I have MAcBook Air MD760B/B- new today! 1.4GHz 13 inch with intel core i5 inside.

    I can receive AOL mail and send it through webmail but not through the apple mail. Am receiving it but despite looking at preferences, checking correct portal setting in advanced box for SMTP settings,  I am still receiving a message saying "Cannot send message using server AOL"
    Any suggestions very gratefully received!

    As I understand it you are able to get mail but cannot send it with your AOL account. I would use the Connection Doctor to help isolate what is the missing link so to speak:

  • Error 16 when attempting to open Premiere Pro

    I get an Error 16 message when attempting to open Premiere Pro trial.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled a few times.  Followed the recommended suggestion to reset permission folders.  Still no luck launching the application.  I also noticed on the crash report EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV) and KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000.

    chat with customer service at book company i purchased file:
    "Me: I installed the proper adobe software, adobe digital editions 3.0 (now have updated to 4.0) on my mac running os 10.85 however I am getting the following error code when i try to open the file:
    "Error getting License. License Server Communication Problem:
    E_LIC_LICENSE_SIGN_ERROR"
    Charles P.: Okay, what you need to do unfortunately, is contact Adobe at  http://www.adobe.com and they will need to get your license issue resolved.
    Charles P.: Is there anything else I can assist you with today?
    Me: title of error is    Unable to Download
    Me: i dont see how that would be an adobe problem?
    Charles P.: I understand, but it appears that the reason for the download issue is because of the license error the license is related to the Adobe Digital editions software. I understand how this could be confusing but it's due to the authorization of the ADE software. Adobe would need to correct your account issue with the license
    Me: ok but i thought this was a free license from adobe??!!  this is just a digital editions reader, right??
    Charles P.: That is correct it is a free license but your account has to be associated with one license and yes the Digital edition is a ebook reader that our ebooks use for you to view

    Well, just for the halibut I tried opening the book again today and , GLORY BE!,  it worked.
    Guess it may have taken overnight for Adobe to OK my license to their free ADE software. Also works now using Bluefire app as the reader on my android phone, although it was a pain
    to get the book file in the right file folder for bluefire to see it.
    I hope that time also heels the issue with all other Error Getting License users.
