CS3 Installation "check disc space and write privileges" message

I recently purchased a new desktop.  I  deactivated CS3 from my old computer (Windows Vista OS) and downloaded CS3 to the new(Windows 7 OS), After it shows 100% extraction, I get a "A problem occured while extracting some files. Check available space on your computer and write privileges for destination folder."  Not sure what to do from here and Adobe does not offer any phone support for my archaic version of PS. 
I tried out copying the downloaded ADBEPSHPCS3_WWE file to C:\ as suggested in a previous post, however to no avail.
Many thanks in advance to whomever might be able to offer assistance.

Thanks again for the replys....
Like I said, my desktop is new--I'm not a techno geek just yet, but it's an ASUS, Intel dual core, I've got 340GB of 372GB available on  C:\ and 550GB of 550GB on D:\ ...Would space be an issue with these stats??  The product is downloaded, and when I go to start the instal, it looks like it's doing well at extracting the files and indeed I can access the setup.exe file, but when I try to open it, I get the Windows "Do you want to allow this program to make changes to this computer?"  When I click yes, that window goes away, but nothing else seems to happen??

    Hi,
    Cool, great place to live.
    Just open the "This PC" or Explorer Icon and right -click on the "Desktop" Icon, click on the "Security" Tab and make sure that SYSTEM, Your User ID, and Administrators all have "Full Control".
    Also, you will need at least 2GB of disk space spare to install, that takes into account the extracted msi's and the installation.
    The other thing is, if it is the CC version, have a look at Error: "Failed to install" | Creative Cloud Desktop

    When I try to install Illustrator CS3 on a windows 8.1 machine and get the following error message. " Installer database is corrupt". Have tried rebooting computer etc. and still the same problem, any suggestions?

    BrianDany I am sorry you are facing difficulties installing Creative Suite 3 under Windows 8.1.  Windows 8.1 was not available during the time period which Creative Suite 3 was developed and the last updates released.
    I would recommend reviewing your PDApp.log and possibly AMT3lib.log file for error messages which are preventing the installation.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the log files at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4.  You are welcome to post any specific error messages which you discover to this discussion.

  • Check control signal and write in 1s, ignore control signal for the following 2s.

    I am new to Labview, recently I use DAQ to receive 2 channels, one is expected signal and another one is control signal.

    Find attached the picture of the vi where I tried to put in timers.one in each of the frame and at the end added one more frame just to measure the time elapsed .

    Is there any way to improve the speed of this portion?
    Probably not.  It sounds like the Keithly VI is taking 140 msec.  You can try opening that up to see if there is anything in there that could be causing an unnecessary slowdown.  But trying to tighten it up too much may cause occasional errors (such as timeouts) in trying to get a response back. 
    But surprisingly I tried displaying the actual timer value at the start and at the start of sourcemeter read function ..but the display of both indicators is almost equal with little difference of only 10 msec.?????  I'm not sure which of the several timers you are referring to here.  What is the value going into the wait function between the VISA write and the Keithly VI?
    When you do benchmarking, the timer functions should be in a frame all by themselves.  Having it mixed with another function or VI causes a bit of uncertainty as to when the time was taken.  For instance, you dont' really know if the Keithly VI was started before the time was taken or after.  (The time was probably taken first, but without a data flow or sequence structure dependency, you can't be sure.)

  • Check  File Existence and display  alert message

    Hi,
    I have a servlet which uploads file to server. Below is my code and is working file. Now, I want to check if the file uploading by the user is already exists. If so , I have to display a message to user "The file you are trying to upload already exists. Do you want to overwrite" with YES or NO actions.
    How can I display this alert message from user.

    Can anyone suggest me on this.

    It won't work like that because JavaScript will run either before the form is submitted or after the page has been generated. In either case, you can't really communicate between the server side code and client side code.
    What you can do is use Ajax to communicate with a servlet that checks for the duplicate file and responds accordingly. You can then perform the appropriate action on the page. This should be very simple to setup, take a look at this basic tutorial [1].

  • Installation of Portal fails with Disc space error

    Hello,
    I want to install EP but during setup I get this error:
    Check for free disc space in tmp and usr directories for at least 600MG.
    So first, what means MG, should this be MB?
    On our root filesystem, which includes both directories, I have 25GB space free!!!
    Can anyone help me? Regards Manfred

    Hi all,
    now I'm back to this topic and it seems that Installing Enterprise Portal is a way with some barriers.
    -Firstly it seems "600MG" is only wrongly written from SAPINST.
    - One Question to Daniel: "the page size of the datavolume", how can this be checked and changed.
    - I have verified our free disc space and of course, there's enough.
    - I checked the Code of the Analyzer Job and found what's wrong. Inside this, there happens an <i>execution of an Unix command "df -k" for both directories and examining the free space with an "Unix-awk" on that result</i>. But in our case, where we use Logical Volume Groups, we get an empty result, because the displayed Column for the free space is on the next line.<b>I renamed df to d_f and have written a small, new  df-script "/bin/d_f -Pl $1 $2" and then the SAP-Installer continues</b> !!!
    - Next failure occured during Deploying DQE (especially to com.sapportals.dqe.beans we get a ClassNotFoundException for com.metamatrix.platform.service.api.exception.ServiceException), but after restarting the J2EE-Engine and restarting SapInst it continues.
    - Next Error, now blocking:
    Info: Initial deployment: Selected development component 'com.sapportals.portaladmin.defaultwizards'/'sap.com'/'SAP AG'/'609.20041012204607.0000' will be deployed.

  • Disc Space error on Photoshop CS6 Extended install

    I am attempting to install Photoshop CS6 Extended (win version) on my Windows 7 ( 64 bit) machine. Core 2 duo CPU @3.16gh with 8 gb or ram.
    The machine meets all the minimum requirements and has more than enough disc space.
    This is the error I get during initial extraction. "A problem occured while extracting some files. Check available space on your computer and write privileges on the destination folder. "I am the admin, the folder has permissions set correctly.
    Also, I tried to read the "installation instructions" found in the CD and am unable to read the file as it says it is corrupted. Anyone else running into this issue?

    if that's a problem with your cd, download a trial of ps cs6 and install/activate using your serial number: 
    if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html

  • Need help [JS]: select images/captions in InD, switch to Bridge and write to XMP

    I've got a javascript for CS3/Tiger that I'm writing that eventually will let a user select an image and a caption in InDesign, then tells bridge to write the caption data into the image metadata. I need help - the script works in pieces, but not when put together.
    It's built as an indesign script, then follows the procedure to create a script object to send to bridge. When it runs, the indesign portion works fine, but nothing happens in bridge.
    The script is below, with comments.
    Can someone help!? Thanks.
    // This is the InDesign portion of the script, which was tested separately and is working fine. Right now, for testing purposes, the data from this portion isn't even used by the later Bridge portion but once I get the bridge part together, it will use those variables.
    #target "indesign-5.0"
    var myObjectList = new Array;
    //Script does nothing if no documents are open or if no objects are selected.
    if(app.documents.length != 0){
    if(app.selection.length != 0){
    for(myCounter = 0; myCounter < app.selection.length; myCounter ++){

    $.writeln(myCaption);
    break;
    default:
    var myLink = app.selection[myCounter].graphics[0].itemLink.filePath;
    $.writeln(myLink);
    // here's where I create the string of the script to send to Bridge.
    // the script itself is almost completely a lifted from the SnpModifyMetadta sample from the Bridge sdk
    // it basically finds a certain image file and modifies the description metatata. i hardcoded the caption text and image path just for testing- eventually i would like it to use the variables from indesign.
    // this script works fine as-is when run in the original Bridge scripting context.
    // the method here of concatenating and sending the myScript string works fine when i use a different (smaller) script. so i can't tell why it's not working!?

    Recently I received an e-mail from a user asking me to remake the script I had posted here a while ago.
    I rechecked my previous post and found a couple of serious mistakes. So I revised it according to what he asked. Each page in his InDesign document contains one image and one text frame with description.
    At start the script checks the selection. If nothing is selected it processes all pages in the document. In case two objects are selected – it checks whether one of them text frame and the other a rectangle and if the rectangle contains an image, then it reads the contents of the text frame, replacing hard and soft returns with spaces and writes this text to the corresponding image’s description field.
    In the end, it updates all links and saves the file.
    The script works both on Mac and PC, assuming that CS3 installed in the default location so long as it depends on libraries:
    /C/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Bridge CS3/AdobeXMPScript.dll (on PC)
    /Applications/Adobe Bridge CS3/Bridge CS3.app/Contents/MacOS/AdobeXMPScript.framework (on MAC)
    So, if necessary, correct these lines.
    Here is my script in case somebody is interested:
    #target indesign
    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var mySelection = app.selection;
    if (mySelection.length == 0) {
        ProcessPages();
