CS2 Re-install issue

Can't re-install CS2. Entered serial number, no phone assist available, to give corresponding Proof of Ownership code. What do we do from here?

Have you downloaded the non-activation version from here and installed using the serial number provided there?

I was trying to activate my CS3 and got help from chat until he said it was an installing issue. The application opens and then closes unexpectedly.

I just got a new mac and I'm trying to download my Adobe CS3 onto it. I was able to download and then I tried to activate it. I entered the CS3 serial number and then asked for the serial number of the older version. I originally bought CS2 on disc and downloaded it onto my old mac and from there bought an upgrade to CS3. I no longer have the discs or box for CS2 and so I do not have the CS2 serial number. I contacted chat support who helped until I reached the point where I could open the application but then it would quit immediately and say "Adobe Update quit unexpectedly." Then he said it was an installing issue and turned me to the forums. Help, please?

JohnEden I would recommend running all available uninstallers to remove the current installation. The uninstallers are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once you have ran the uninstallers then please also utilize the CC Cleaner Tool for a complete removal. You can find details on how to utilize the CC Cleaner Tool at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

SP2010 Foundation Post Install issues on development workstation - Database and Services

Just recently installed SP2010 Foundation for a development workstation. Platform isWin7 X64 pro, SQL 2008 (Developer edition)
(1) Looks like search has some configuration issues. This is in the Windows event log
The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.SharePoint.Search.Administration.SPSearchJobDefinition (ID 38eefca2-d092-47f4-a833-23f8280c5f63) threw an exception. More information is included below.
The device is not ready.
(2) In Central Admin > Servers in Farm
Status - "Upgrade Available",
(3) In Central Admin > Manage Database Upgrade Status
Sveral of the Datbase(s) mention that upgrade is recommended, but one in particular mentions that the DB is too old?
WSS_Search_GHHTY
SPSearchDatabase
Database is too old and upgrade is required
Huh?
(4) Looking at my local SQL 2008 instance that SP2010 created, I see several DB's with "Config" in the name along with a guid on the end of the name. Is the result of re-running the configuration wizard several times while
I was correcting install issues?

here is question, i am assuming its fresh install not upgrade...
when you run the config wizard( you mentioned many times), which option you select from 2nd try to on ward....cannot disconnect this server from farm?
are you using any script to install ?
I would say run the config wizard without disconnecting and this server will host CA option.
from the central admin > manager server in farm...on top you will see farm version and config database name. note it
from the Manage database Upgrade status page note all the db names
now match it on sql and keep those and all other should gone now as a clean process.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog

Mac OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues

Hi,
I have a Mac Powerbook G4 with OS X installed and Adobe CS3.
I've installed a font. The font works in Photoshop and Illustrator
but not in Flash CS3. Why? I've put the font in the Library/Fonts
folder and the User/Fonts folder and it still doesn't show up in
Flash. Apparently this is a problem for a number of people see
another forum here:
MAC
OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues Forum
Please let me know what to do to fix this. I need to be able
to work with the font in all three applications Flash, Photoshop
and Illustrator.

Hi davidd61713525,
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
Unfortunately, it looks like something is wrong with the file system and the installer can't see the root drive to install to. A Google search returns numerous results affecting various products and the recurring theme is that something is wrong with the disk. There are many recommendations from various sources, but nothing definitive.
Here's a similar thread over on the Apple forums:
Broken Installer Permissions | Apple Support Communities
And a similar older one:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1203509
I would try the following options:
Try using the PKG installer. This is used Mac SysAdmins to install Flash Player within their organization and uses a slightly different installer path, which may or may not work.
Some people have had success with disk and permissions repair some have not. You can try running a disk and permissions repair. After the disk and permissions repair is complete, reboot the system and try to install again using either the online installer (get.adobe.com/flashplayer) or the offline installer, posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac page in the ‘Still having problems’ section.
If these options do not work, I'd reach out to Apple support to see if they have a suggestion. If you do find a resolution to this, please let me know. I'll be happy to share it with people that encounter the problem in the future.

Re-Installing Issue

Hi,
I have a G5 I had to re install and erase my HD cause I had issues, now that i am rebuilding the system it won't let me install FCS, I get to the DVDP disc and it says Installation failed.... I tried it a few time and I get the same error. Can anyone shed some light on this please?
thanks

Welcome to the forum!
Made sure the disks are clean? I'd call Apple on an install issue if it's new or if you suspect a damaged disk and you're the registered user.
Which OS are your running? QuickTime Version?

Webutil install issue

Hello,
I have a strange WebUtil install issue on 10gIAS 10.1.2.0.2. I downloaded the 1.0.6 WU version and put it into a webutil directory under forms (which the pre-configuration of AS seem to assume) and when I call the forms servlet with ?config=webutil the "RegisterWebUtil - Loading WebUtil Version 1.0.6" shows but the main applet doesn't load. The webutil HTML template is found and looks OK in View Source but no applet. The config section has a archive_jini but it behaves as if the main jar can't be found(?) Nothing extra in the jinit-console, even at log level 5. webutil.cfg is copied to forms/server and frmwebutil.jar to forms/java.
Suggestions appreciated,
Nik

Hi,
Can you check Vitual Path of WebUtil in the config file ..\forms\server\forms.conf?
I would like to see your files
..\forms\server\default.env

Error when installing issue in Content Viewer

Hi,
I have a strange error in my Content Viewer.
When downloading it stalls and a message says "Could not install issue, relaunch app and download your purchase again" (my translation from swedish).
It sometimes stalls when downloading and sometimes when installing issue.
Anyone got a solution or having the same problem?
Br
Henrik

Henrik, this can be either or. The internal Acrobat.com servers seem to have download issues once a week or so.
The best way I think you can determine this is if the download is failing at the same point during the download. If it is, it's a problem with the folio. If it's not, then it's a temporary problems with the servers.
If it is a problem with the folio, there's no straightforward answer -- but if you were able to download that folio recently, delete or update the articles you've added since.
If you have no idea what's causing it, you can either start deleting articles, or try updating them first.

Can' t read disk label, install issues

can' t read disk label, install issues
i am trying to install solaris 8 on a sparc5 (256mb, 4.2gb,110mhz). i initially installed using the installation disk and it seemed successful as i was able to load the rest of the cds. something went wrong though b/c the system is stuck in a rebooting loop after it finished the last cd. so i went searching and found that i could only have a root partition of no bigger than 1gb. since i used the installation disk, i was not given an option to specify slice sizes. so now, i am trying to redo the install starting from the first disk (1 of 2) and skipping the installation disk. when i do a "boot cdrom" with the 1 of 2 disk, i get the cant read disk label or something about short entry and it will not boot. i am using actual Solaris 8 cds and not downloads. what can i do to get it to boot up from the first disk, or fix the partitioning on the disk?

I am using the offical Solaris 8 Installation 2/02 for SPARC Platform Edition for Sun Computer Systems February 2002, Revision A
Output from the probe-ide command follows:
device 0 (Primary Master)
ATA Model: ST3160023A
device 1 (Primary Slave)

device 2 (Secondary Master)
ATA Model: ST340016A
device 3 (Secondary Slave)

device 0 is the new hard disk that I just installed
device 1 is the CDR drive
device 2 is the original hard disk. I can boot this but now get some magic disk errors or something like that
device 3 is not present
I have all devices set to cable select according to the manual.
Thanks for your help...

Windows xp itunes install issue

I am attempting to install Itunes using Windows XP at Service Pack 3 with all the security updates installed. The instal begins and during the final process of setup, I receive the following error message and the Itunes instal backs out and stops.
Error message, " These is a problem with this Windows Installer package. Aprogram run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor".
I am looking for some advice after working on the Apple and Microsoft website's trying to find a solution.

Thank You B Noir for the helping hand in reapiring my problem in loading Itunes.
I ended up working with an Apple Service Tech who had me delete all the programs associated with the Apples Itune install. Quicktime, Apple Application Support, Apple Modile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Software Update.
Each of the programs were un-installed with no issues until we started the uninstall of Apple Software Update, which your note indicated could be a cause for the install issue.
Using the Windows program "Fixit" downloaded off the Microsoft website, we determined that the registry keys for this program had become corrupted. We used Fixit filtering down to an install repair module inside if Fixit to remove the damaged program from my PC's registry then Fixit uninstalled the Apple Software Update program.
Once this was done, we were able to successfully instal Itunes using the latest Itunes install packaged found on the Apple website.
Thanks Again for your advice.

Photoshop/Indesign cs2 install issues

Ok I just got my first Mac. The PC is six years old and slowly falling apart so I said why not spice it up a bit and get a Mac. Anyways...
I downloaded the trials of photoshop and indesign cs2 from Adobe. The installer starts and then starts to install, but it just quits after about ten seconds and says "please try installing again" both the photoshop and indesign (and i assume every other adobe install application) do this.
I read about the Version Cue issues, but that is not installed and that isn't an option in a custom install anyway.
This is kind of the reason I got the thing. Is a universal version coming out anytime soon?
Macbook pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

A new UB version of Photoshop is expected @ spring 2007, since Photoshop is part of the Creative Suite, as is InDesign, I'd imagine Adobe will launch a UB Creative Suite around the same time, but when exactly in 2007, only Adobe can say.
Photoshop CS & CS2 installed without issue on my MBP, have to admit, I bought them on disc and didn't try the trial version - Problem could be the Adobe installer won't work properly under Rosetta on an IntelMac

Photoshop CS2 install issues

I recently got a new laptop and am not able to install my CS2 software. I originally had it on two computers but tried to remove and deactivate it off my older laptop. The program was succesfully uninstalled but the deactivation was not. I was also getting an error message informing me that the software could not be installed because the activation server was not functioning. So I downloaded the "fix" from adobe.com and now it says my serial number is invalid. I am extremely frustrated becasue after talking to customer support I was told that Adobe no longer supports CS2. I am unable to purchase any newer versions and I really need to get this software installed. Is there anywhere I can get support for this????

towards the bottom of http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l it says:
Sign in using your Adobe ID and download your application. Note the serial number (it is on the same page). Successful installation requires this serial number.

Install issue with CS2

A customer service rep recently directed me to the CS2 download on the Adobe website as a replacement for my CS install. I got all the files downloaded and followed the installation instructions on the PDF from the download link. However, the install keeps hanging up when it asks me to insert disk 2. I already have disks 2 and 3 unpacked and saved on the C drive per the instructions. How do I get past this?
I am running a 64-bit version of Windows 7.

Hello Paul,
CS2 was good to go in 32-bit XP.
64-bit XP came out after CS2's release.
Adobe TechNotes identify that CS2 could be installed & run in XP 64-bit but that CS2 was not certified on that environment.
Only CS 3 and CS4 were tested for Windows 7 support.
Adobe identifies that older products may install/run but that they were not tested on Windows 7 and will not be updated.
Acrobat 7 and Office 2007 -
Acrobat 7's PDFMaker is not compatible with Office 2007.
See: http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfitmatters/2008/12/version_compatibility_of_acrob.html
Widows 7 -
Acrobat 9.2 and Adobe Reader 9.2 are required for compatibility with Windows 7.
See: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/faq/
In context of Windows 7 and Adobe applications, the discussion at the link below is informative.

CS2 Install Issues Please at least view

I am trying to install CS2 and I know the first answer will be to upgrade but at this point I can't, I will, but right now I can't. When I try a custom install for only photoshop, indesign and Illustrator it looks like it is trying to install the bar moves along then straight to the end says it was installed but nothing is there.
When I do a full install of the suite it shows as a normal install except these programs are still missing
This is on a xppro box nothing special about it
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
