CS4 32-bit fails to startup (64-bit fine)

Using Vista 64-bit, installed PS CS4 the other day. I have been using the 64 bit version fine with no problems. However, I downloaded a plugin that only works in the 32-bit version, so I tried to launch the 32-bit version from the start menu, and the splash screen comes up for a few seconds, then an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop CS4 has stopped working". The splash screen is stuck on "Building TWAIN menu items..." This also happens when I try to start the program from the photoshop.exe in Program Files (x86) folder. Any ideas? Thanks!

Any TWAIN hardware on your system? Scanners? Special camera drivers? Memory card slots or PictBridge via a printer? Sounds like a specific component is only rooted with 64bit drivers and thus the 32bit version cannot handle it...

Hi 12345Kiran,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Notebook and looping repair screen on startup. Try performing a hard reset. When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices, and remove memory cards from the card reader slot. Disconnect all non-essential devices. If that does not help try to turn on the computer you start to press F11 repeatedly till the menu opens. You can do a system restore.
I would be happy to assist if needed as there are many models of HP I would need the model number. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Please let me know.
Thanks.

Javaws 64-bit fails to installer newer JRE (Java7u6 auto-upgrading to u7)

Hi,
I have a machine with an previous version of java installed (tried with 1.7.0_06).
My Jnlp file is set to automatically download the latest JRE. This works fine if the JRE installed is 32-bit. But if the user has downloaded the x64 bit version (on windows 7), everything works, except when I change the required version spec to 1.7.0_07.
The confirmation dialog to install 1.7.0_07 comes up but fails, as it tries to download and run the 32-bit installer while the javaws is 64-bit. Shouldn't the 64-bit version download a 64-bit version when auto-downloading?
The user is running javaws from the commandline
javaws.exe http://myserver/myapp.jnlp

Hi outpaddling,
Remember, you tried the "cacls" command and it did not work for you. I spent sometime on it and found that on Win7, there's command called "takeown" on Win7, which allows an administrator to recover access to a file/folder that was denied by re-assigning file ownership.
Could you try the following?
Note: You must elevate the level of permissions for Win 7 with UAC enabled.
On Windows 7
Choose Start > Programs > Accessories.
Right-click on Command Line and select Run As Administrator.
If Error 1321 is being caused due to some file e.g. if it's ACE.dll, then it's containing folder e.g. "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 9.0" is to be mentioned in the below command line. The below command in blue can be typed at the command line and the end press Enter Key.
C:\Windows\system32>takeown /f "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 9.0" /r /d y && icacls "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 9.0" /grant administrators:F SYSTEM:F /t
After running the command, you should be seeing something like this,
Successfully processed 1367 files; Failed processing 0 files
And then try installing Reader 9.3.3 from http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3.3/enu/AdbeRdr933_en_US.exe
Hope, it helps.

Serialized install of Presenter 10 32-bit on Windows 7 64-bit with Office 2013 32-bit fails

I used Creative Cloud Packager to create a serialized install of Presenter 10 32-bit for use on Windows 7 64-bit that have Office 2013 32-bit installed. The package created fine, but when I run the setup.exe that CPP generated, the progress bar moves along then undoes the changes and finishes. The Presenter didn't actually install and I get no messages about why it has failed.
Is there any way I can determine what is causing the failure?
I have manually run the full installer and it does work as it should. The problem is only when I create the serialized installation with the CCP.

Hi There,
If you have Office 32 bit, and OS 64 bit then you need to add Presenter 32 bit media as "Offline Media" .
Please find the below steps to create a package for Pn 32 bit and OS 64 bit :
Launch CCP.
Click on Create package and click Next.
Give the name of the package , location to save it , License type as "Serial Number License" , Select "32- bit Package if your OS is 32 bit or select 64- bit Package if you OS is 64 bit" .
Click Next and Enter the serial Key for Presenter 10. Click Next.
Click "Offline Media" .
Click on Browse .
Browse to Presenter 10 Installer and select "PresenterWin32" and click Ok.
Click on Extract.
Select Presenter 10 and click Done.
Click on Build .
Regards,
Mayank

ODBC link to SQL3\SCCM2012,1432
ODBC uses SQL Native Client 10.0 (64 bit)
Both ODBC connections when TESTed pass and suggest connectivity to SQL Servers
Install process doe SCCM2012
Tried to install SCCM 2012 RC2 when logged in to SCCM Server as AD user account
SCCMAdmin, and when utilising the SCCM2012 SQL instance on
32 bit server of SQL install proceeds barring warning about 8GB rec, for SQL Server. Then fails on PKI certificate issue. Installation (chose HTTP for MP). I beleive the PKI failure as install starts is
due to the fact that SCCM 2012 needs its database server to b 64 bit ?
Thus i then tried to install SCCM 2012 RC2 when logged in to SCCM Server as AD user account SCCMAdmin, and
when using the SCCM2012 SQL instance on
64 bit server of SQL install proceeds but fails at checking stage and says:
SQL Server sysadmin rights FAILED SQL3.Domain_Name
Either the user account running Configuration Manager Setup does not have sysadmin SQL Server role permissions on the SQL Server instance selected for site database installation, or the SQL Server instance could not be contacted to verify permissions. Setup
cannot continue.
and
Site System to SQL Server communication WARNING SCCM.Domain_Name
A communication error has been detected between the specified site system and the site database computer. This error can occur when the site database server is offline or if a valid SPN has not been registered in Active Directory Domain Services for the SQL
Server instance hosting the site database. Setup cannot continue.
Why does the install of SCCM 2012 with 32 bit SQL proceed further than the install with 64 bit SQL, with the latter process failing as above error meesages show and yet both servers are set identically (apart from temporary turning off Firewall on the 64
bit server) and during the install the Databse Server specified is accepted ?

Thanks for the reply.
I can connect via ODBC to the the 32 bit SQL Server and the 64 bit SQL Server from the SCCM Server
The SQL Server Unit called SQL3 unit is a 64 bit SQL.
The SQL Server Unit called SQL is only 32 bit, but at least gets past the final checking stage and the error messages about sysadmin rights and Site System to SQL Server communication problem, and then fails with PKI certificate error message.
When trying to install SCCM specifying the 64 bit SQL Server as the Database Server it gives the 2 error messages at the final checking stage of the installation as listed.
So as I said what is confusing is the fact that if the SCCM install uses the remote 32 bit SQL Server it passes the final checking (although fails with PKI certificate message) but the 64 bit SQL Server set up exactly the same apart from the Firewall being
left off for the time being, fails at the final check stage with the 2 listed errors.
If I use a local 64 bit SQL Server the installation is fine.
Still would like to find out what cause the 2 issues for the remote 64 bit SQL Server, when ODBC seems fine, sysadmin rights have been given for the installer account and the SCCM computer account and SPNs have been set for the user account running the SQL
Services.

Save for Web fails in Illu 64-bit

I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and Illustrator CS6 64-bit latest (just updated an hour ago). When I go to "Save for Web" I get error:
The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error [CANT]
May be worth noting that I also get error "Error loading plugins. Drop shadow.aip" on startup. this appears to be an issue that Adobe is aware of and has chosen to provide no solution for as of yet. However, if there is a solution and I'm overlooking it, please advise.
This is on a fresh install of Windows 7 64-bit followed by a fresh install of CS6.
Thanks,

Photoshop CS4 32 bit settings work for 64 bit version?

Anyone know if Photoshop CS4 32 bit settings work for 64 bit version? I just installed Windows 7 x64 and I want to use my backup Photoshop CS4 settings from the 32 bit version. Will there be any problems?
Also, it seems that since I'm on 64 bit Windows 7, the installer forces me to install the 64 bit version of Photoshop CS4, although the 32 bit version is optional. Are the 32 bit settings stored in a different location from the 64 bit version? Or will both version use the same settings from the same place?

I think you are misunderstanding me. The sharing happens via the user home directory (C:\Users\[You]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe ...). 64bit specific settings will be denoted with an X64 in their file name, 32bit settings will be without any extra tags. Beyond that, the programs do not access each other's program directory, which shouldn't be required in the first place, as the default templates are the same for both to begin with. You can of course also copy your brushes and presets to the program directories, but then you will have to worry twice about keeping them in sync.

JDK 6u11 64 bit fails to install

Hi guys, I'm having a bit of trouble installing JDK 6 update 11 Windows x64. I previously had some beta of version 10, but I uninstalled all copies of Java before installing this one. Unfortunately, I can't install update 11. I tried installing the JRE separately and that worked, but even then if I try to install the JDK afterwards and deselect the JRE the installation still fails. Any ideas? This is a pretty annoying problem for me. I know I could install the x86 version but I'm leaving that as a last resort, since the x64 builds used to work fine for me.

At face value, I'm thinking revert to the 32-bit version for now, and maybe try the x64 version of 6_12, when it becomes avaialable? Will that get you working again or do you require the x64 version for some specific development?
the x64 builds used to work fine for me.Are you attempting to run a 64-bit JRE on a 32-bit machine or the 32-bit flavour of XP? i.e. do you have 64 bit processor(s) AND the 64-bit version of XP?
a bit of trouble... the installation still fails...That's all a bit vague, isn't it... exactly what are you seeing? Error message(s)? Is there an installation-log-file? What's in it?
Is there a [bug report|http://bugs.sun.com/] on it? Have you looked for one?
Cheers. Keith.

One Daemon fails on startup, but I don't know which one

Hi!
During startup I see the message, that one of the daemons fails on startup, but my eyes are too slow to see which one it is
I don't have any troubles and everything works fine but I want to know what's going wrong on startup. I know there are log files in /var/log but I can't find the information I looking for.
These daemons I have in my rc.conf:
syslog-ng network netfs crond cups hal !fam alsa acpid slim mpd
So, not that much, but I don't get it (I don't know about the fam-daemon, I think I don't need it, do I?)
Thanks
Barghest

Thanks for your suggestion, but that didn't work.
But I just used sudo reboot after login and had a chance to see that it is the acpid daemon that fails.
I'm a bit confused, because it works fine (I can shutdown by pressing the power button) and in /var/log/acpid.log I can't find an error message.
So, is it a good idea to start it in the background?

Migration from Oracle 9i 32 bit to Oracle 10G 64 bit on Windows 2003 Server

I am working on migrating Oracle 9i 32 bit to Oracle 10G 64 bit on Windows 2003 from Old server to new server. We have db around 500 GB and 3 schemas. I installed Oracle 10G on new server, created tablespaces, schema's blah blah and now doing export and import at schema level from old server to new server.
Import is taking more than 4 to 5 hours on new server. My manager is saying, window time is bit longer and he wants me to try possiblities to make this process faster. Can some one help me on this, to use the best possible method to complete this process faster?
Will below step work, if I try?
If I install, oracle 9i and 10g both on new server in different home directories and take the hot backup from old machine and restore on new machine in 9i home directory and use the upgrade configuration assistant from 10g and do the upgrade? Pls advice.
Thanks in advance,
Hari babu
Edited by: user6367891 on Mar 2, 2010 5:28 AM

It looks good.
I have one question in below steps:
To migrate an Oracle9i or older database to an Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1) database for 64-bit Windows:
1 Perform steps 1 - 11 in "Migrating an Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1) Database".
2 Shut down the database on the 64-bit computer:
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
3 Start the database migration:
SQL> STARTUP MIGRATE;
4 Migrate the database as described in Chapter 3, "Upgrading a Database to the New Oracle Database 10g Release" in Oracle Database Upgrade Guide.
In step 4, it says, migrate database as described in chapter 3. In chapter 3, it says, to do the upgrade the process using dbca or manually. Pls confirm whether do the upgrade process after issuing startup migrate or not.
Thanks in advance.

Windows 7 64 bit, Access 2010 32 bit, Oracle 10G client 32 bit, Oracle database 10.2.0.4 64 bit

I am trying to connect to an Oracle 10.2.0.4 database from Windows 7 OS - 64 bit using
Access 2010 32 bit and Oracle 32 bit client version 10.2.0.1 installed on PC.
My user requires a 64 bit Windows 7 OS for other needs.
Oracle ODBC driver is 32 bit from Oracle 32 bit client.
In Windows 7 OS 64 bit, ODBC DSN setup software is located in:
C:\Windows\system32\odbcad32.exe for 64 bit drivers - all DSN types setup and
C:\Windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe for 32 bit drivers - USER DSN setup
When I run the ODBC Data Source Administrator, I see the Version number is 6.1.7601.17632
I setup a User DSN using the 32 bit odbcad32.exe with a 32 bit ODBC driver.
Our Oracle TNSnames.ora file has our standard entries which have worked for years
(Windows 7 OS 32 bit and everything 32 bit has connected for years too)
So when I configure an ODBC User DSN and leave all the default settings and press the TEST Connection button, it says it works.
But when I open the existng Access 2010 database (which does connect to Oracle in a Windows 7 32 bit PC environment),
1. I go to Access External Data ribbon tab / Link to the Data Source by creating a linked table / press OK
2. I select the Machine Data source = to the USER DSN name / press OK
3. The Oracle ODBC Driver Connect Window opens with Service Name = USER DSN and User Name and it wants a Password
4. I enter the correct password and I get the following error message:
ODBC call failed
[Oracle][ODBC]{Ora]ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified
(#12154) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed IM006 0
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed (#0)
I have tried a quite a number of fixes:
I have gone into the PC registry and cleaned out most or all off the Oracle client keys and
reinstalled the Oracle 32 bit 10g client. It didn't fix the error.
I read about the Oracle instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.4.zip with ODBC modules but I have Windows 7 64 bit.
Anyone experienced a problem like this and have a fix?

Thank you for your reply.
I did not get to try it because after I entered my question, I did a lot more internet Googling.
I found this small comment:
“There's a known issue where you get a 12154 error message running 32 bit software on a 64 bit OS using client 10201, and
It should be resolved by patching the client to 10204, which you do by applying the 10204 database patch to it.”
I searched around for the 10.2.0.4 patch for 10.2.0.1 Oracle 32 bit client.
When I contacted my Oracle DBA to ask if he had that patch, he said that I should try the 11g 32 bit client on the Win 7 64 bit PC.
We have a 10.2.0.4 Oracle database but he said the 11g client should work fine.
I tried it and it solved the problem!
With so many settings, configurations and permissions involved in ODBC, I am inclined to think that I missed a setting but
it was a bug in the 32 bit client 10.2.0.1.
Solved.
