Cs3 and vista 64bit

I have just taken delivery of a 64bit version of Vista home premium and have tried to install CS3 design Premium it runs through the checks and then stalls at the install.. any help would be apreciated.
thanks

Vexal, I completely sympathize. I've never had much trouble with Adobe software - other than having a forced upgrade to CS3 to get Vista compatibility, grrrr - but I've had such experiences with other, highly reputable makers.
I once spent three days trying to install a version of QuickBooks. When I called for help, it turned out to be outside the free help (for some reason)... and as soon as I forked over the $45 session fee, the guy INSTANTLY told me that my IE5 installation - that's right, the browser, not any part of QB - had a buggy file that needed to be patched before QB would install. I've burned over that $45 ever since.
One of the things you aren't clear about is whether the Vista 64 is the system's original OS or an upgrade - the "just taken possession of" implies you installed it as an upgrade. This was Vista's biggest failing and the source of 99% of its bad rep - it simply did not upgrade systems well. I suggest, if you want to cure this problem and avoid a host of others down the road, that you do a clean install of Vista 64 on the system. I know, it's a hassle, but it's necessary if you want stable system to work with. (Hint: throw a new hard drive in it and install Vista to that. Then you have the old drive to pillage for data and setup files until you're back to square one.)

  • Audible, iTunes and Vista 64bit

    Hi everyone, I'm moving to a new computer tomorrow that has Vista 64bit on it. I know that iTunes is now compatible, but I have a lot of audiobooks from Audible and to listen to them I know I'll have to authorise my new computer. I've had a look through the help pages on audible's site and it says that there is a problem with iTunes that stops you from authorising your computer on a 64 bit vista machine: http://audible-uk.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/aid/3666/kw/vista%2064/rid/166
    The thing is, some of the info on audible's website can be quite old so I'm not sure if this problem has been addressed yet or not. Has anyone managed to authorise a 64bit vista system for audible content? If not, can anyone think of any work arounds? (other than keeping the old computer around until the problem is fixed!)
    Cheers
    Nicola

    I had Vista 64 and now Windows 7 64 and no issues--and there is a 64 bit version of iTunes too. All works well.

    That may be correct, but my old Mustek 1200UB scanner is currently working flawlessly in Windows 7 using Windows XP drivers. There were never any drivers made for Vista for it.
    I got one of those scanners too!

    Mo,
    Here's some more information on PSE and Vista 64:

    One thing not yet listed in the FAQ: The PSE 7 downloader won't launch on Vista 64 -- you have to run it manually via File > Get Photos And Videos.

  • CS3 and Vista: Application wont run

    Just got a new laptop with Vista.  Installed CS3 no problem but now when I try to open any of the programs, nothing happens.  I've already tried running them as administrator and my laptop can definitely handle CS3.
    Help!

    Is it an Acer laptop? See here in the Dreamweaver FAQ.

  • CS3 and Vista problems

    A few days ago I bought a new PC with Vista (MEDION® AKOYA® P36830
    Authentieke Windows® Vista® Home Premium, AMD Phenom X4 9500 Quad Core (2,2 GHz), NVIDIA® GeForce 9600GT, 4 GB DDR2 RAM, 500 GB Hard Disk).
    Since I will use this PC for my graphical work I tried to install a trial version of Photoshop CS3.
    But... I can't even install the program on the PC !
    The setup starts but nothing happens anymore.
    In the Task Manager I can see that the process is running but that is all.
    I've tried to change the priority of the process to higher and lower with it wont install.
    I have read the Tech Note: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb400950&sliceId=1 but even switching the RAM modules won't work.
    Furthermore: NOT ONE ADOBE programm will install on this PC ! I have tried: Acrobat, Dreamweaver, InDesign...
    Please what more can I do to get PS CS3 working before I buy the complete package ?
    Sincere thanks !
    Lambert

    Lambert: There is a notice about the trial downloads on the opening page to the forums. EG: Don't do it right now.
    Having said that, I'm running all the programs you are trying to install on Vista without a hitch. Doesn't solve your problem, but maybe something else is the problem.
    What permissions do you have? Does your account have 'administrative'?

  • ITunes and Vista 64Bit! No work together!

    "iTunes 7.6 or later is supported with any 64-bit edition of Windows Vista. The installer for 64-bit Vista is named iTunes64Setup.exe instead of iTunesSetup.exe. For more information see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301301"
    So now you iPod With Coloer Displays will work!

  • Wvc200 and vista 64bit

    My Vista 64 cannot cope with the activex of wvc200, so I cannot see the image through IE. Is there a way around this problem? Is Linksys going to do something about it?
    Thanks,
    Joop

    Thanks, bigdaddyt,
    The problem is not that the ActiveX won't run, but the ActiveX just does not seem to work with Vista 64. So, the arrow keys won't display and the image isn't there. I guess that Vista64 somehow does not interpret the AciveX code correctly. I recall having seen a message somewhere that states the same.
    So I would like to know of either Cisco or someone else have found a workaround for this problem.

  • Itunes 8.2 and Vista 64bit

    Hello everyone,
    I searched the forums and didn't see a definitive answer for the problem I am experiencing. Last Saturday I deciding to upgrade my Ipod Touch 1st Gen to 3.0. So I installed upgraded to itunes to 8.2 (64 bit installer) and lo and behold my ipod would not show up in itunes anymore. My PC still recognized my ipod as I could see it in My Computer. So I downgraded to 8.1, fired up itunes and it was back. I upgraded to 3.0 from there (it let me upgrade for some reason). After the upgrade I knew I was going to have to have itunes 8.2 to use my ipod. So just to check I fired up itunes 8.1 and got a message telling me that I had to have a newer version of itunes. So I upgraded once again to 8.2 and once again no ipod. PC still sees the ipod though. So now I am stuck, I tried to upgrade the apple mobile device drivers but am told by windows that I have the latest version. Anyone else experiencing this? Any solutions? I was able to sync my ipod to itunes 8.2 running on 32bit XP so at least I got my music back.

    [UPDATE] Finally got it working. I was looking around in Device Manager and found the Apple Mobile Device USB driver. Uninstalled it. Once I did that even Share Pod stopped working. Uninstalled 8.2 and reinstalled 8.0.2, rebooted and noticed that the Apple Mobile Device USB driver did not come back. So I figured that was the culprit. Looked around in Programs and Features and found Apple Mobile Device Support, uninstalled it as well as 8.0.2 and rebooted. Once back into windows I unplugged my Ipod deleted my iTunes folder in my music folder and reinstalled 8.2. The Apple Mobile Device driver was back. So thinking I had fixed the problem I plugged my iPod back in and started iTunes. Nothing. So I unplugged my ipod and went into services (Start -> Services.msc) and stopped the Apple Mobile Device Service as well as the iPod Service. Unplugged my iPod, started iTunes plugged my iPod in and got a message from iTunes saying that my iPod couldn't be used because the Apple Mobile Device Service was not started. Aha! I was getting somewhere now. Itunes was definitely seeing the iPod but just didn't want to connect to it. So once again I shut down iTunes, unplugged my iPod, started the Apple Mobile Device and left the iPod service shut off, Fired up iTunes plugged in my iPod and still nothing. So the last thing I did was to go back into services (leaving iTunes running this time) and restarted the Apple Mobile Device service (right click, restart) and Viola! it showed up. I hope this helps some of you experiencing the same issues I have. Good Luck!

  • Not able to install live update with vista 64bit

    I got a MSI P45 NEO-F board with Intel 2 duo E8400 processor, and VISTA 64bit.
    I'm not able to make the live update work, the CD-ROM following the card does support vista, but not the 64bit version. After having tried updating everything else to make my computer stop crashing when playing Age of Conan, I would like to see if an update of the bios will help. I would rather use the MSI updater than do it my self, as I don't want to take the extra risk.
    I've checked core temperature, RAM temperature, memory leak seems not to be the issue either, and I got the last driver for my videocard (v8.9 for Radeon HD 4870 512MB). At any given time the sound loops, picture may freeze and pixel or just go to brown stripes, and I then need to force a reboot. Some times the system has BSODed by itself as well.
    Current BIOS is v1.1, I think there is a v1.5 now.
    Is there a live update supporting vista64? Or a receipt for dummies how to do it manually? The AMI BIOS Flash procedure following one of the BIOS-versions that I *think* I can use doesn't include an explanation for vista.

  • Adobe Bridge CS3 2.1 Update and Vista 64 bit

    I updated my CS3 applications using the Adobe Updater.
    Now when I launch Bridge (either standalone or through one of the other applications in the suite) Windows immediatly reports that Bridge "has stopped working", closes the application and says it is checking for a solution. Needless to say no solution is found.
    Bridge was working fine in Vista 64bit before I used the Adobe Updater.

    Bridge CS3 crashing on E6600 DUO Core w/4gig ram two terabytes of drives. Vista Ultimate 64
    I too have been encountering the mysterious Bridge crashes .."Stopped working.." .."insufficient disk space to complete."..
    and .."insufficient memory .." when processing images in the RAW Plugin. Thiss has been going on for weeks and has been quite frustrating. And yes..this started after using the Adobe Updater ..
    Note one line of the Bridge Error report lists:
    Fault Module Name: QuickTimeStreamingAuthoring.qtx
    I don't know what Quick Time has to do with Bridge ..but..
    I went to Apple & got the latest Quicktime for Vista 64..and ALL the crashing problems have ceased! I have even turned back on "MULTI-PROCESSOR" Support. Running smoothly...
    So what does Quicktime have to do with bridge image processing?
    Please & thanks

  • ITunes 1.6 and Windows Vista 64bit Help

    I have not been able to use iTunes properly since I got a new computer with Vista 64bit. I can play music, browse iTunes Store and watch Video, but the problem comes when I try to attach my iPod Touch or try burning a CD. With the last version, it seemed that 64bit windows Vista was not supported so I just decided to wait for an upgrade. I download iTunes 1.6 from Apple.com and try to install and it says I need the 64bit iTunes Installer. Did I miss the download for it?
    This is the error message I get...
    This iTunes Installer is intended for 32-bit versions of Windows. It is Highly recommended that you download and install the 64-bit iTunes Installer instead.
    All I need is a Link to the 64-bit Installer because I cant find it.

    What's supposed to happen is that when you go to the download page, http://www.apple.com/itunes/download, it's supposed to recognize that you're running 64 bit Vista and then you get the 64 bit iTunes installer. But I've seen reports that FireFox users are only getting the 32 bit installer page.
    Can you try that link with IE? And do you get a different installer then?

  • Vista 64bit t and itunes 7.5

    I just installed Itunes 7.5 on my windows vista 64bit machine. The software loaded fine but the cd burning function doesn't work. Anyone have a solution to this problem? I know that Itunes 7.5 is not a vista 64 bit piece of software. Notwithstanding this fact, it is working fine except for the cd burning function.
