CS3 will not install on Windows 7, 64-bit. No error message. Just stops installing.

CS3 will not install on Windows 7, 64-bit. No error message. Just stops installing. This is a brand new machine. This is one of the first things I'm installing on it. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. The disks are fine. I have the programs installed on my two XP machines. When I run the disk, I get the window pop up that says "Initializing Installation for Adobe Creative Suite 3". Then the disk stops spinning and nothing else happens. No error message. Nothing else happens. I'm baffled. I have searched several discussion boards and cannot find anybody that has had a similar install issue like this.

Old_Timer I would recommend reviewing your install logs to determine the exact error message.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the logs at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-installation-install-logs-cs3.html.

  • Snow Leopold OS won't install, no error messages, just stops installing

    I'm trying to install Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro 15". The first few times I put in the disk, it ran for about 15 seconds and then ejected. After 2 or 3 times it took the disk and I started installation. The progress bar moves and about 30 minutes in my screen goes blue and then I get to my log in screen. Does anyone know what might be wrong and how to fix it?

    It might have installed it already. The progress bar isn't always an acurate indicator of when something's done. Once it brings you to the login window, log in. Then click on the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the menu bar on your Mac. From there, click "About This Mac". Below the thing that says "Mac OS X", it should say what version you are running on. If that version is 10.6, then you're good to go! If not, if you have AppleCare on it, you could bring it in and have them look at it. Or perhaps you have a faulty disc.
    Hope this helps.

  • Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync

    Tungsten t3 will not sync with Windows 7 64 bit using cradle sync any suggestions?

    Try a low-tech solution.  Check the condition of the HotSync port connection on both the T3 and the cradle.
    Look for any possible corrosion, coating, or bent fingers in the cradle.  Sometimes a good cleaning with either Contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol can work miracles!   (Use a q-tip swabbed in it, do not pour it onto the PDA).

  • Laptop won't boot, will not do a windows repair, received a hdd error 0303.

    laptop won't boot, will not do a windows repair, received a hdd error 0303.

    Hi,
    The error code is a short Disk Self Test failure and would indicate that the Hard Drive is failing and needs to be replaced.  This is also consistent with the start-up issue.
    If your notebook is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange to have the drive replaced - you can check your warranty status Here.
    If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
    If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
    If you are out of warranty and would like a guide on replacing the Hard Drive yourself, please let me know - include the full Model No. and Product No. of the notebook - see Here for a further explanation.
    Regards,
    DP-K

  • Satellite Pro M10 will not boot again and comes up with the error message

    My Toshiba Satellite Pro M10 notebook will not boot again and comes up with the error message "load error" when I push the power button.
    The problem arised after installation of "symantec system works" and trying to restart windows XP professional to make the installed program executable.
    What can I do to get the notbook restart again?

    Hi everyone
    If you cannot acces to the boot menu by pressing F8 you can try to recover the the master boot record from Windows Xp professional installation Cd, to do this:
    Attention: don't run these commands if you have more than one operating systems running in your laptop.
    Boot from Windows Xp installation cd
    Choose repair installation from console by pressing "C" key.
    A console will open asking you for administrator password, insert the password and press enter.
    Run de command: FIXMBR (It will write a new boot record)
    Run de command: FIXBOOT (It will write a new boot file)
    Restart the laptop and now windows should start without problems.
    Regards

  • I just tried updating ITunes to the new version and it will not completely download and now I get an error message of MSVCR80

    I just tried updating ITunes to the new version and it will not completely download and now I get an error message of MSVCR80. Is there a problem with the new iTunes version?
    Now ITunes won't open.Help!!!

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • I cannot install latest itunes to my Sony notebook which is running on traditional chinese windows 7 64-bit, the error message is something like unrecognized windows package, can any one help me or has similar experience? Thanks.

    I cannot install latest itunes to my Sony notebook which is running on traditional chinese windows 7 64-bit, the error message is something like unrecognized windows package, can any one help me or has similar experience? Thanks.

    iTunes 9.0.x is certainly compatible with Win7 64 bit since I use that exact setup on 3 different PCs. Two suggestions for your installation problems:
    1)Download a new copy of the 64 bit installer from Apple then, instead of just running the itunes installer right click on it and try 'run as adminstrator'. In my experience that clears up a world of problems with program installation in Win7 and Vista. This is necessary even if you're already logged in as an administrator.
    2) Try the previous version of iTunes (9.0.3). You can get a copy at http://www.oldapps.com/itunes.php?old_itunes=54 again right click on the file and "run as administrator"
    Good luck, hope this helps.

  • Photoshop elements 13 will not print to my new epson wf-7620 error message;default printer could not be opened

    frustrated! photoshop elements 13 will not print to my new epson wf-7620 error message;default printer could not be opened

    I haven't been able to try this fix, but someone emailed me the below fix:
    I had same problem.Elements13 would not open my new default printer, but worked ok on four other versions of Elements. No help from Adobe, after three days of searching & phoning adobe , I found out by:- Going into Elements 13, Press Edit button, down to "Preferences and across to general. Press the "Reset Preferences on next launch". I then suggest you go through each section to make sure that your chosen preference are still ticked/checked in.
    It worked for me. Hope same for you.
    I'm planning on trying this fix soon.  Let me know how it goes for you if you get to try it before me.  Will do the same.  Thanks,

  • While installing OD XE 11 g, I get error message just before finish

    the message is like couln't get data local {7e-ie-....) XE registration.

A: While installing OD XE 11 g, I get error message just before finish

Hello, and welcome to the OTN forums!
i was told that this prg will install in my 64 bit OS (Windows 7).Who told you that, and why don't you ask him/her why it didn't work? (just kidding...)
In fact, XE 11.2 is currently not supported on 64 bit Windows machines. See the [url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm#BABHICJH]System Requirements documented in the Installation Guide for XE 11.2.
The error you receive has been reported often when people tried to install on 64 bit anyway. There are workarounds for that issue, e. g. described in this thread: {thread:id=2289186}

  • Desktop Software will not open in WIndows 7 64 bit

    Hello
    I have downloaded versions 6.0.1, 6.0.2 and 6.1 of BlackBerry Desktop SOftware separately and after uninstalling the version I set up. In each case set up goes fine and a shortcut comes up and I select to start automatically after the setup, but when the program starts it hangs on the bb logo and goes no further. It is not even listed in the Task Manager as running. The same happens when I double click on the shortcut. I try running it in all the compatibility modes from WIndows XP SP 3 to Vista SP2 and the program just hangs without opening. I clean my Registry and I run the same downloaded program (transfer via flash drive) on another computer running WIndows vista SP 2 and it opens perfectly on that other computer so the downloaded fiel is fine.. I do not have another windows 7 64 bit computer to try to see if there is something on my computer that is causing the problem. Help!

    Hello
    I am using a Windows 7 64 bit computer which is why i said , "I do not have another windows 7 64 bit computer to try to see if there is something on my computer". The fact that it worked on yours suggests there is something on my computer that is causing the problem. Did you run it as administrator and in Window 7 compatibility mode, or as downloaded (which is Windows XP SP 3 by default)?
    Thanks

  • Photoshop CS3 will not open in Windows 7 after functioning perfectly?

    I have just installed Windows 7, 32-bit version within the last month. I reinstalled all my programs, including InDesign and Photoshop CS3. InDesign is working well. Photoshop CS3 worked fine until last week. Overnight Photoshop would not open! I have tried everything I can think of--deleting Preferences (it took me three days to find where it was, and the control-alt-shift doesn't work), and deleted a new program for viewing videos which was the only new program I had installed (just in case), then "repaired" the Photoshop using the original disk.
    Finally was able to get into Photoshop BUT: Everything is screwy--colors are off, PS tells me I have only 1600 MB of RAM, when I know I have 2 Gigs installed, it looks really strange--everything is grayed out in a checkerboard pattern.
    This is my third post on this issue--CAN ANYONE HELP ME??  I have been without my Photoshop for over a week, and desperately need to get it back. I am just now getting back on track, trying to get my website back, etal. after almost a year out of commission due to a broken back and crashed computer. Now I have my computer back and can't use PHOTOSHOP!  HELP!
    In addition, my computer suddenly says "We have had to revert to the basic Windows color scheme because there is one program that needs it (???), and then my desktop is all screwed up. I can't get my color management back--have to turn computer off and on again and then it's all right. This always happens after trying to enter Photoshop.
    Please email me a response because this is getting very annoying, and debilitating. ([email protected])
    Message was edited by: Taylorgraphics

    Last week I spent 8 hours online with Sony trying to get Photoshop to work. They downloaded a new video card, and driver--nothing has seemed to work. After that I completely deleted Photoshop and re-installed it from scratch. It still does not work--colors are missing, RAM is incorrect--says I have 1678 MB RAM, when there are 2 gigs on the system. It's totally unusable. Since I am seriously thinking of upgrading  to PS CS5, both InDesign and Photoshop, I am very nervous about whether that will work in Windows 7, especially after reading all the problems on this forum.
    I read the other questions about CS3 and MAYBE it is a Windows Update. That is the only new thing I can think of to have caused this. Windows Restore is not feasible as I have been working on this problem for over three weeks, and can't go back that far.
    My question is, is it feasible/safe to delete the LAST update where this happened? That's the only thing that hasn't been done.

  • After Effects CS3 will not launch in Windows 7

    It appears to have installed properly and I even then installed the update.
    But when I click the exe file to start the program, windows asks me if I want to run it... I say yes... then nothing...
    If I go to my task manager, it shows it running under processes (but with a *32 after it which I assume means its running in 32 bit) but it is not on my applications list in the task manager.
    Nor is it anywhere to be found on the task bar... I have waited a long time for it to launch and nothing...
    Any ideas?
    It was installed from the CS3 Production Premium disks.
    Please help! And thanks!

    I just got a windows 7 64bit machine and cs3 production installed without any problems.  So far I have to run AE in compatibility mode to avoid an error when starting up.  It says Please run this program from admin account so it can setup you license.  It shows the error twice then runs anyway.  I set it to compatibility for vista and no error appears.  I think it has something to do with the Media Core, since that's what displays just before the first error.
    Could it be you're antivirus or firewall software interferring?  Just a guess.

  • Since updating yesterday iTunes will not open/sync/recongnize my iPhone. No error messages, ive tryed un/re-installing it but the same thing occurs.. Anyone! Please can you Help? Thank-you

    Hey!
      Glad to hear that you and your family made it through relatively unscathed!  I think we all need to take better care of our wonderful planet, because I think we are upsetting Mother Nature! 
      I have the Windows Installer Clean-Up screen up and tried to upload a screen cap for you, but IE immediately shuts down every time I try.  So I'll have to transcribe the screen for you:
      I see the following:
    (All Users)
    (All Users) [1.2.0.10]
      Those are the top two lines.  The following lines after that are programs he has installed on the machine like Acrobat, Adobe, Autodesk Inventor, and such and they all have a name and program number in brackets.
      And I now again have the obligatory Apple programs installed and listed again:
    (All Users) Apple Application Support [1.5.1]
    (All Users) Apple Mobile Device Support [3.4.0.25]
    (All Users) Apple Software Update [2.1.2.120]
    (All Users) Bonjour [2.0.5.0]
      Please note that iTunes is NOT LISTED.
      Everything else 'appears' to be normal, I'd say.
    Take care, and I'll see you on the flipside!  According to my clock, it's 4:11am Thursday morning there!
    See ya!

  • ITunes 10 will not run on Windows 7, 64 bit

    I have upgraded to itunes 10 and now it will not run. In task manager the process is running but no programme. i uninstalled all itunes, quick step, bonjour and apple folders. Then tried a clean instal of itunes 10. Still didn't work. Uninstalled again and reloaded v 9.2 and it works. Tried disabling bonjour and ran the instal of 10 again and it still doesn't work. This is becoming a major pain as I am stuck on v9.2.

    Try installing the version 10 again so we can check on a few other characteristics of the problem, seeoh.
    (1) Does your QuickTime Player launch, or do you get an error message of some kind when you try to launch that?
    (2) Try (by way of experiment) disabling the BonJour Service.
    In your Start Menu, right-click Computer and select "Manage".
    Expand "Services & Applications".
    Open "Services". (Maximise the window to better see what's going on.)
    Right-click the BonJour Service and select "Properties". In the "General" tab, set Start-up type to "Disabled".
    Restart the PC, and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch this time?
