CS2 installation from download

Just as Gibbo posted a few hours ago, I am unable to complete installation as the install is asking for a disc and I have download files instead.  I have possession of the discs, but Adobe today sent me instead to these downloads because they don't support activation on CS2 anymore.  How do I get the downloads to complet the process?

  • Oracle 9i database installation from download files

    i downloaded oracle9i database from the otn web site. i am running windows 2k pro with service pack 2. there are three files. the instructions on the otn web site say to extract each file into it's own directory and then run setup.exe.
    when i try to run setup.exe, i get an error that says the installer cannot find the java run time environment.
    i have installed the newest version of java, but still get the same error.
    do i need to have these directories in a certain directory?
    someone please enlighten me. where am i going wrong?
    thanks in advance for your assistance.

    if you want to have iSQL*Plus available you have to have
    the Apache Web server started and you can access so:
    http://localhost:port/isqlplus
    to check what is the port that Apache is using you
    can find that information in:
    <ORACLE_HOME>/apache/apache/conf/httpd.conf
    When you installed the software, if IIS was shutdown
    Apache surely took the port 80 and perhaps for that is
    the cause so that one of them is started the another one
    has to be shutdown.

  • Installation from download

    Intending to install Oracle 9i on Linux Redhat from files I have downloaded.
    Do I need to write the downloaded "disk" files to CDs? Otherwise how do 1 swap "disks" if I install using just downloaded files?
    JD

    You can just unzip the files onto your system if you don't want to or can't burn cds. You should end up with separate directories such as Disk1, Disk2, and Disk3. When the installer finishes with Disk1, it will prompt you for the path for Disk2. All you need to do is enter the path and the installer continues.

  • X11 installation from downloaded file

    How do I install the download of X11 to work Gimp? I downloaded X11-0.46.4.tar and double clicked on that. It then opened another folder called X11-0.46.4 and when I go into that I am lost as to where to find the right folder to open. And if I need an application if there is no default application to install, what do I use?

    I would suggest buying either the original replacement OS discs or a set of Tiger OS X discs so that you have an alternative booting system besides the internal disc in the event that your primary file system gets corrupted and unbootable and needs to be repaired via Disc Utility, which is on the OS disc.
    Alternately, get a large enough external hard drive and make a bootable copy of the entire internal hard drive, then you can boot from the external should anything go wrong with the primary internal drive. Booting from the external drive would allow you to perform repairs on the internal drive.
    Depends on how important your computer and data is, hard drives don't last forever and will fail at some point, and probably not at the most convenient time. An external hard drive now is cheaper than data recovery services will be later.

    That's great, I think more folks should start using "GIMP" as a verb for performing digital image manipulation, instead of that other common Photo-software. Good luck with the project.

  • CS2 installation (from CD)

    CS2 won't install on my new mac.  When I click on the CD icon I just get a window showing the contents of the CD.  If I click on the "installer exe." it tells me the software isn't supported by mac OS - even though it works on my partner's mac.
    Any ideas?

    You wouldn't be able to activate it anyway; see http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l on how to proceed.

  • Linux R12 installation from downloads

    Good Morning,
    I have downloaded 53 zip files for my installation on Linux. Do I have to create any specific structure (folder) to run the rapid install? Can someone point me in the right direction? Any document or readme file that explain how to build the stage area? Thanks.

    Just moving along. Quick question. Do you think it makes a difference if I installed under root or "oracle" user. What would you recommend?If you are going to have a multi-user installation (applmgr and oracle), then you must run RapidWiz as root user.
    For single user installation, run the installer as oracle user.

  • "Problem extracting some files.." for LR 5.3 installation from download

    I have Win 7 SP 1 Home premium operating system, ~300GB free space, and ran downloaded exe as Administrator.  It appears to complete setup32.exe but fails during setup64, or at completion of 64 bit.   64 is 5909KB only.

    Found a way around it.  By accepting the defult location to unpack files to - Desktop, all works well.
    Problem solved.

    There are two factors that can contribute to the coordinates being displaced or not being applied. I'm assuming here that you are using gps4cam to generate a tracklog and applying the tracklog to the images.
    1. The camera time must be in exact sync with the phone time, including time zones. If you forgot to adjust for daylight savings time, or if the clock on the EOS-M got reset, that could be one source of this issue.
    2. When using GPS witha smart phone, sometimes wifi hotspots are used for "greater accuracy" but occasionally a hotspot may be associated with an incorrect location.
    Based on your details above, and the fact that we just changed clocks last month, I'm betting on #1.
    For what it's worth, I use my EOS-M with an Eye-Fi SD card and that will allow me to record GPS data directly into XMP data without the use of a separate tracker app. It does wear down the battery faster, though.

  • Problem installing CS2 from download.

    I was attempting to re-install Adobe CS1 but could not get it to re-activate.  I called Adobe support and was directed to download the CS2 suite from their site.  I downloaded it and attempted to install.  The filenames are a little different than those referenced in the installation instructions but everything went perfect until it ask me to insert CD #2.  The extraction process extracted the program files to different folders on my c: drive so there are no actual CD's.  I don't understand why the install routine cannot find or be directed to the next set of extracted files.  This has gotten very frustrating.  Can someone please help me?  I downloaded the following:
    CS2_install_Win.pdf  -- installation instructions
    CreativeSuiteCS2Disc1.exe
    CreativeSuiteCS2Disk2.exe
    CreativeSuiteCS2Disk3.exe
    CS_2.0_WWE_Extras_1.exe
    VCS2.zip
    thanks for your help,
    tom

    Before I start copying files............when I extracted the files the process created the following folder structure:
    C:\Creative Suite
              |_
                  Adobe Creative Suite 2.0
                                 |_
                                    Adobe InDesign 2.0

  • Installer failed to initialize: unable to install Photoshop CS6 from download

    I'm unable to install photoshop CS6 from download. I've downloaded to required two files (Photoshop_13_LS16.7z and Photoship_13_LS16) and double clicked on the second file. This appeared to extract a number of files and folders to a newly created C:/users/lester/desktop/adobe CS6/Photoshop/ folder. I found a file called "Set-up.exe" inside the .../Adobe CS6/ folder and double clicked it. When I double click, a status bar says "initializing installer" for a few seconds, I get the following error message:
    ! We've encountered the followng issues
    Adobe installer is already running. Please close other Adobe installers and select retry option to continue with this installation.
    Get Adobe Support Advisor
    Nothing else is running in Windows. The adobe support advisor link is useless because the page says support advisor was discontinued. The "how to download" PDF on the download page was useless (for CD disk downloads only). Any ideas?

    Thanks Jeff - I decided to do a complete reinstall of Windows because of this issue and others with unwanted popups I accidentally downloaded. Hopefully things will go smoother the third time around, just as they did a few days ago when I did install PS CS6 without any problems.

  • Multiple installations from one Yosemite download

    Hi,
    I am trying to install Yosemite on various computers, where does The installer go after the first installation. I don't want to keep waiting 45 minutes for each re download
    Thanks
    Enio

    After the first installation it is automatically erased. You can re-download it from your Purchases page in the App Store. If you wish to keep the installer then before you click on the Install button put a copy in your Downloads folder.
    Make Your Own Mavericks, Mountain/Lion Installer
    After downloading the installer you must first save the Install Mac OS X application. After the installer downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
       2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the leftside list. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    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.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
    Use DiskMaker X to put your installer clone onto the USB flash drive. Wait for the process to complete which will take quite some time.
    You can also do this as follows:
    Create Yosemite USB flash drive Installer
    Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy and paste the following command line in its entirety into the Terminal window.
    sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app --nointeraction
    Press RETURN, enter admin password (will not echo to the window) then press RETURN again.
    You need to have the installer in your Applications folder or change the paths in the above command line.

  • I'm installing Adobe CS2 as a download.  After the first 'disk' is installed, the Installer asks for 'CD 2' to be loaded.  How do I get around this?  No CD; only 'disk' files downloaded.

    I need advise on installing Adobe CS2 as a download.  The Installer is looking for CD 2 but I don't have a CD.  It's a file downloaded and saved to Programs on my hard drive.  Adobe CS2 is no longer supported by Adobe Support.  Someone out there must have run across this problem before.  Help, please.

    all the extracted files should be placed in the same directory.  by default they fail to extract in the same directory so you will need to manually move them.

  • Reinstall of cs2 from downloaded files

    reinstall of cs2 from download worked but illustrator wont launch, other programs working fine

    I have a similar problem. I reinstalled CS2 but for the time being just chose to install Illustrator from the package. That was successful up until the point that I tried to launch or open the program. I get the following pop-up box every time:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
    Runtime Error!
    Program:...rator CS2\Support Files\Contents\Windows\Illustrator.exe
    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.
    Windows also says:
    The color scheme has been changed.
    The following program has performed an action that requires Windows to temporarily
    change the color scheme to Windows Vista Basic.
    Program: Adobe Illustrator
    Publisher: Adobe Systems, Inc.
    Process identifier (PID): 4064
    Windows will automatically change the color scheme back to
    Windows Vista Aero when this program or other programs performing similar
    actions are no longer running.
    Please decode. Will it be impossible for me to get it up and running? I need to work with it for a class that has already started.
    If I have to buy a new cs suite (or just the illustrator as I only need that for now), what is the best package for a student?

    I am trying to "personalize" my cs2 software online download with the serial number from my original boxed cd set and it didn't work. I tried using the download serial number and that doesn't work either. Need help!

    I understand that you have also used the download link & serial number from Adobe - CS2 Downloads, if still the CS2 is not working, then please refer to the system requirement for e.g System requirements | Photoshop
    The issue can be that the present operating system might not be compatible with the CS2.
