Hi,
I have a MacosX 10.8.3 now (before migrating this was a Leopard) and now I cannot open work with my CS3, because the Ilustrator says: "Licensing for this product has stopped working.
Now I am not sure what to do!

CS3 "Licensing stopped working"

I'm getting the "Licensing stopped working" error whenever I try to open any of my CS3 applications. I looked at the troubleshooting steps here: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows. I downloaded, extracted, and used the fix, but it didn't work. I tried looking for the FLEXnet service to manually activate it, only to find my computer devoid of said service. I'm assuming this is the problem, but I'm unsure as to how to fix it. I'm going to try redownloading the fix, to see if that will help. I await a response, thanks.

I would suggest Section 8.
Go with the complete uninstall/reinstall.
It's a pain,but nuke and pave works best. Follow the steps and have your serial number and discs at the ready.

Remove Contribute CS3 toolbar in MS Office?

Is there a way to remove the Contribute toolbar from the MS
Office applications? I know it was possible in version 4 but I
don't see it in CS3 (4.1).
Any help would be appreciated.

To remove the Contribute plug ins - you will need to close
both Contribute and MS Office applications. Then navigate to
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Contribute CS3 and rename the
following file from officeplugin.dll to officeplugin.dllOLD. When
you relaunch Word, Excel or Outlook - the Contribute toolbar should
be removed.
If you choose to add the toolbar again in the future, you
just need to remove the OLD from the file name. Then bring up the
command.exe window and browse to the program's directory C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Adobe Contribute CS3\ and then run the following
command: regsvr32 officeplugin.dll
This will re-register the .dll file responsible for the
toolbar.

Setup Stops Running Message When Installing CS3

I get "Setup Stops Running Message" after Disk 1 completes and asks for Disk 2 when I try to install CS3 Master Collection. This is new Dell Vostro 270s PC with Windows 7 Professional that replaces a HP running Windows 7 Home Edition. CS3 ran OK on the HP. Suggestions?

License stopped working. Error 150:30.

Re-install of Mountain Lion from Time Machine (BIG mistake) left me with PhotoShop and InDesign CS4 unusable. "License stopped working and Error 150:30" were the messages.
Went online, tried what worked for some people, i.e. deleting Flexnet from ~Library/Application Support and then putting Flexnet file in ~Library/Preferences. Still could not open PS & ID. Interesting that Bridge never had a problem and works fine.
I am out of USA and don't have my install disks but I do have serial number for CS4. Chat was ridiculous. Adobe is certainly wasting money on that outsourced non-help function which took 30 minutes of my time for nothing.
Is there any help for me besides waiting til I get back to USA to get my install disks?
I feel very angry at Adobe for having so little help for me. I've been using PhotoShop since the 80's on PCs and Macs. I wish there were some other program out there so I wouldn't have to deal with Adobe-Snobby who "got above their raisin's."
Oh, and by the way, just in case anyone from Adobe pays any attention to this, when you click "Close" from the Chat window like the intructions tell you, there is NO WAY to complain about "how Adobe is doing."

I fixed the problem myself by using some comments from the Creative Suites CS3 forum: however, with CS4, there is no Trusted Storage File, as it is named below. It is called Storage. And you have to delete the 2 .data files Preferences creates when you reboot.
Also the FLEXnet Publisher file should be in ~Library/Preferences NOT in ~Library/Application Support where I found mine.
Basically PS4 and ID4 would not work until after removing the Service file from FLEXnet Publisher then re-booting and repairing Disk Permissions. After deleting the 2 data files, I replaced the Service file in the FLEXnet folder and both PS4 and ID4 opened easily. Whew. It's been a long couple of days trying to figure this one out! The instructions below helped me figure it out.
Go to: Main HD > Library > Preferences > FLEXnet Publisher > FLEXnet folder (Mac OS) remove the Trusted Storage File (TSF) from the FLEXnet folder and drop it on your desktop.
Restart your Mac > run disk permissions repair (Applications > Utilities > Disk Repair) then launch InDesign - enter serial number - InDesign should now work (fingers crossed)
If all goes well trash the TSF - you won't need it anymore as a new one should have been created.

Adobe CS3 License and Reinstall Issue

After a while of using Adobe Design Suite CS3 I got an unexpected error 'Licensing for this product has stopped working'. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Suite, but installation for Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator keeps failing. Only Acrobat and Shared Components installs.
Any help would be appreciated.

Uninstall and try one more time. There is a bug in teh CS3 licensing system where it will only work after the 2nd reinstall. If that doesn't fix it, manually delete the caps.db (C:\Program Files\Common files\Adobe\caps) and run the drill again. It will complain that the caps.db is damaged the first time, so you need to run this twice as well...

"Program" CS3 has stopped working"-Has anybody had this issue before?

When I launch any of my Adobe CS3 software, I get a message as follows:
"Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
I tried resetting preferences, restoring my system to an earlier date, removing and reinstalling the software, and nothing has helped.
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium.
It is a licensed version of CS3.
Please help. I am dead in the water here.

Hi,
Have you updated CS3?

CS4 / CS3 licensing issues & uninstalling errors

Hi everyone,
Last year on November, I had installed a trial version of AE CS4 on my Mac 10.5, after the 30 days, I purchased CS4 production premuim and installed into my Mac machine. Since then CS4 cannot be used because of "License Expired," I have been consulting with Adobe Techical Support to use CS3 and CS4 cleaner to clean the affected files, and even to fool the computer clock, but I still cannot reslove the issues for over 9 months.
Recently, I tried the following suggested solutions:
- Copying Adobe PCD, caps, backup folder to desktop and reluanched the applications -- doesn't work!!
- Fooling computer clock -- doesnt' work!
- Deleting the FLEXnet Publisher preferences folder - doesn't work!
- Running the License Repair Tool "LicenseRecoveryLauncher.app" - 2 attamps still don't work!
- Repairing Disk Permissions - doesn't work!
Now, my Adobe crisis are
1) Can't unistall both CS3 and CS4 application:
     error : The alias "Uninstall Adobe After Effects CS4 [or other application name]" could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found.
     error : The alias "Add or REmove Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium" could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found.
     PLEASE HELP to fix the Alias / something else for uninstall both CS3 / CS4 applications
2) CS3 Design Premium is corrupted by CS4 "License Expired" and the error message is "Licensing for this product has stopped working.
     PLEASE HELP to fix the CS4 "License Expired" issues
Thanks in advance for your valuable time!!

Contribute CS3 Freezes in Windows

We recently purchased a 10-user license for Contribute CS3
and have had no luck getting it to work. It runs very slowly on our
Windows XP computers. All of our computers are fairly new with at
least 1 GB of RAM and plenty of space. After taking several minutes
to download a page to be edited, it then freezes up completely when
you try to publish. I cannot unfreeze it without CTRL-ALT-DEL, and
then it leaves alot of junk in the Draft Console, as if there were
alot of files edited. I have uninstalled and re-installed, and even
rebuilt the user keys, but no luck. Any ideas as to what is causing
the problem? I have never had such poor performance from Contribute
before, and I have been using it since version 1.0. I also
currently have several users who have versions 3 or 4 and are not
having this problem. Any ideas as to where to go from here would be
appreciated.

I installed the entire CS3 and CS4 suites in Win7 but I only briefly tested them. Everything started up okay. As with Vista 64 it's vital that you accept the default installation path and even more important to remember that you'll be on your own as far as support.

Adobe Contribute CS3 Connection Error

I am trying to use Adobe Contribute CS3 Version 3.1 to connect our web server. I can use WS_FTP and WinSCP to connect to it fine. Our web server is running under CentOS 5.x. When I try to connect using the connection wizard in Contribute, I receving the following error:
Contribute cannot verify your connection information.
/tmp
Please contact your administrator for assistance.
I have tried both FTP and SFTP. Again, I can login, navigate to /tmp and upload, download, and delete files fine using WinSCP. Can someone let me know what Contribute is trying to do to verify the connection? Is there a log file? Any help is appreciated.

When I first tried to connect to our web server, I received a similar error. What worked for me was getting rid of the folder designation when trying to connect in Contribute (in your case /tmp) and allowing users to have permissions to access all folders on the web server. I create Contribute roles to limit the users to specific folders.
I hope that helps.

Windows 7 " Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working "

Okay let me stir up a whole new kettle of fish WINDOWS 7 VS CS3 PHOTOSHOP.
I have Windows 7 Ultimate Edition 64bit. I am running (or trying) CS3 Master suite. Most all progams function except Photoshop. I try to load it and I get "Adobe Photoshop CS3 has stopped working" and then there is no fix and no help. Photoshop ran on Vista 64bit just fine.
I'm curious if anyone else is having this same issue? If so have you found any clue as to the issue?
I get the feeling this could be a conflict with a windows 7 update or something?
Any fixes?

Try right clicking on the PS CS3 icon and run as admin. I can tell you that people have a lot of problems in running PS CS3 in Windows 7 and had to download the Windows XP virtual and run CS3 in virtual mode.
Anyways here is a link to the suite forums. They may have a better answer there for you.

You do not have a license to run Primavera P6 (r8.4)

I am having a problem after a fresh install of Primavera P6 r8.4
I am completely new to Primavera and I'm doing this as learning exercise (and failing!)
I'm using:
Database: Oracle Enterprse Edition 11g (11.2.0.4)
OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.8
Weblogic: 12.1.3.0
JDK: jdk1.8.0_40
The installation seemed to work altough I tried to install P6 and P6 Team Memeber at the same time
and got an error for the Team Member part which I figured I'd sort out later.
From the Weblogic server console:
p6 has a State of Active and Health of OK
p6tm has a State of New
When I try to login to p6 (http://server:8203/p6) as admin I get the error:
"You do not have a license to run Primavera P6. Please contact your System Administrator."
I have check the permissions on the license directory and the key file:
[oracle@primavera license]$ pwd
/u01/app/oracle/P6EPPM_1/p6/license
[oracle@primavera license]$ ls -ld
drwxrwxrwx 2 oracle oinstall 4096 Apr 28 11:17 .
[oracle@primavera license]$ ls -l
total 4
-rw-rw-rw- 1 oracle oinstall 30 Apr 28 11:17 kavachart.key
I have also followed MoS note Doc ID 894279.1 that nulls user_data where topic_name = 'pm_settings' in admuser.userdata
I've tried to find logs to help with debugging this but can only find:
/u01/app/oracle/P6EPPM_1/p6/WebAccessLogs/P6WebAccess.html
It shows:

Hi Pablo
Thanks for your reply.
I stopped the NodeManager, uninstalled jdk1.8.0_40 and installed 1.7.0_79 in its place.
I updated:
JAVA_HOME environment variable
$MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/primavera_domain/config/config.xml <java-home> /usr/java/jdk1.7.0_79 in all places
$MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/primavera_domain/bin/setDomainEnv.sh JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.7.0_79 plus DEFAULT_SUN_JAVA_HOME and SUN_JAVA_HOME
rebooted the server but was unable to start P6. So I uninstalled and reinstalled P6. I got the same error, then realised I'd need to re-install Weblogic too since I'd uninstalled the JDK it was built on!
Weblogic is now built on jdk1.7.0_79
P6 is now built on jdk1.7.0_79
Weblogic starts okay. Under Deployments it shows P6 but I am unable to start it. I'll see if I can find the logs and post their detail and/or the fix.
