CS4 Desing Standard disk 1 problem

Is there whole serie of broken disks distributed all over the world? Autostart doesnt work, copying files on the desktop doesnt work. And in generally opening disk1 to see its contents takes damn long time. It doesnt even open every time. We tried it on several computers, with XP Pro and Vista Business. Then we contacted Finnish support to ask what to do. They send us new pack, but exactly the same problem recured. Im not sure but I think we located the prob to 'Payloads' folder when progress bar stopped moving and kb/mb indicator stopped to show how much have been copied. I tried to read all topics what i find but my English s*cks so... Well is there anything we can do but get another broken disk1 :)

Oh I wish we would've had enough brains to realize to try that way:/ But finally we got open the disk1 and we copied all files to desktop. I think it took almost 2 hrs when it was ready. Then we burned those files in new dvd. Then installation worked:) Postman brought again new diskpack about 20 minutes ago. Ofc i put the disk1 in and wanted to see does it work. Well same prob again. I dunno is it installation disk or Vista what causes that problem. Anyways new programs working great:) I love Indesings new things:) Well i jumped from CS to CS4 so the jump was huge:)

Where can I download CS$ design standard from as my disk is corrupt and on the Adobe site it only shows design premium and my serial number isnt recognised

Design Standard is available thru the following page in the Adobe site:

Need help w Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro reinstall from CS4 Master Collection disks.

Hi all, I'm hoping that you can help me with something. This bug is costing me tons of time and frustration, so whoever can give me a walkthrough, step by step, of what to do, will be my favorite person of the year.
I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro that I installed originally from my CS4 Master Collection. This collection came as a set of physical disks.
Now, the problem is that, for the past couple of years, Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro has been super, duper buggy on my computer. For example:
- It won't let me install updates to it.
- It does weird things and gets stuck a lot.
- It likes to crash.
- It won't let me uninstall it. I tried to uninstall it, and I got an error message that says, "Invalid Application. The application selected was not a valid Acrobat application for this uninstaller. Please rerun the uninstaller."
- I tried all kinds of things. I looked on the forums and took all the different kinds of advice. Same problems persist.
- The current version is 9.4.4. It hasn't let me update since then.
I am afraid to just delete the application, because word on the street is that doing that will mess up all your files. So I want to uninstall properly. I heard on the forums that reinstalling is the best way to go.
I finally found the CS4 disks that I used to install this (and my entire CS4) a few years ago. But now I'm not sure what to do next. These are my challenges:
- When I put in the first disk, it prompts me to reinstall the entire CS4. I'm not sure how to go in and reinstall just the Acrobat part of it.
- Adobe doesn't provide this as a download, so I can't download a new version. So the CS4 is my only option, I believe.
- If my current Acrobat 9 Pro is messed up like it is, what procedure should I follow so as to be able to replace the bad one with the good.
- Is this version of CS4 Master Collection disks known to have a buggy Acrobat on it? Will installing it not solve the problem?

I googled Acrobat 1301, and the Adobe help threads I read all recommended that I uninstall the application, so I did. I opened the uninstaller and went through the procedure.
But then I got the following message:
"Invalid Application. The application selected was not a valid Acrobat application for this uninstaller. Please rerun the uninstaller."
This is weird, because the create date and date modified are all the same for the Adobe Acrobat Pro, Adobe Uninstaller and Adobe Distiller in the folder. So how could it be not a valid Acrobat application for this uninstaller?

Installing Photoshop CS4 from original Disk onto my new Macbook Pro. Serial number accepted but now asks for the serial number of a previous version e.g. CS3 which I no longer keep. How do I resolve ?

Tina Hadley did you migrate/transfer your applications over to your new Macintosh? If so this could cause problems with your serial number being recognized. Please run the available uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once this is done you will also want to run the CC Cleaner Tool. Details on the use of the CC Cleaner Tool can be found 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.

CS4 web standard on pc, now using macbook.

I have CS3 web standard and CS4 web standard upgrade. Both are boxed version and have serial numbers for PC. I'm now on a macbook pro. Could I get help on how to install the CS4 web standard suite on my macbook? Not sure if I can just Download CS4 for mac and use the serial number on the box. Problem is I can't even find the download for CS4 web standard. I see CS4 web premium, but not standard?

As far as I know, a Win number will not work with a Mac version

CS4 Web Standard Install Error?

Hi,
Trying to install CS4 Web Standard from the disk on a Windows 7 32 bit system. I ran setup and it immediately started "Checking System Profile" but froze toward the end of the Initialization, after confirming that it was not going to finish out I canceled and closed the window. I started over and it did the same thing. The program shows in Programs and Features like it was installed but is not in Program Files. I tried to uninstall through Programs and Features and I get an error that "Adobe has stopped working"! So I can't install it or uninstall what appears to be installed. There is nothing in Program files, there are registry entry's and files within the Common Files Folder but nothing that points to any .exe and the uninstall folder is empty. Has anyone run into this issue? I have snapshots but see no way to attach a word doc...I can email if needed.
Thank,
Mary

Need to repair grub/update to grub2 on old standard disk.

Yes, I've botched the recent update. But I'm prepairing to chroot from an arch live disk and follow all the steps. But firstly it seems that my hastily grub update went wrong and I can only boot into the grub prompt. Almost no commands work from there, like 'ls' - Command not found.
Reading the wiki it doesn't clearly state how to update to grub2 (in chroot) on an old standard disk. Only for modern GPT's or UEFI disks. As far as I understand anyway. (My understandning might be limited since I've had no need for GPT or UEFI yet)
So where can I read up on updating to grub2 in the old standard way, with MBR? I've been using grub2 on other distros so no problem handling it.

The wiki, naturally https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gr … ode_region

CS4 Student Standard

I am trying to run the cs4 student standard. A split second after it runs a system profile check and the serial entry window pops up I get "Adobe setup has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconveniance". I uninstalled my elements 5.0. I have run registry cleanups. I disable all background programs I can find. Even those via cntrl/alt/del that show any cpu activity. I ran numerous virus scans and spyware scans. I ran the setup on a laptop running vista and I got past the hang up. I can't use that laptop for cs4 though because it was preinstalled with vista stock from Toshiba but it only has 1g of ram and a 2.0 single core. I know right. computer companies will do anything to make an extra couple bucks. It runs like crap and there is no way cs4 would run well on it. Here is the machine I am trying to install it on.
ASUS M2N68-AM SE2
NVIDIA Geforce 9600 GT by BFG
AMD Athlon 64 2.5 dual core
2 gigs of Corsaire 1066mhz (even though the cpu only picks it up as 800mhz)
Windows XP Professional 2002 version w/service pack 3
I want to install it on my WD Caviar Black 32MB cache/7200 RPM 1TB hard drive(if that even matters) but I cant get far enough to choose the drive for install. I was able to get install going on another PC so I know it isnt a bad disc. I need this soon for school and I can't seem to get any results from tech support. They actually had the nerve to tell me to upgrade to Windows 7. Sure maybe I should but I can't afford 7 now because I bought this and I want to make sure Microsoft works out all the bugs before I waste my money like I did Vista. The tech support people were cool and all but they couldnt help. I was hoping someone here may have seen this error before and can help. I have no previous versions of CS anything on here. Just Lightroom now. I doubt that is the issue. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I love Adobe products and this is the 1st problem I ever had that I could not fix. Its just seems kinda weird. I have been using PS and Elements and CS3 for a long time on other PCs ad would like to be able to use this quality product that I know it is.

I didn't think you buy the student edition anywhere but from a school. You'll need to call Adobe to find out what your next step is.

CS4 Design Standard Help Files

Help files for all CS4 Design Standard programs are not available. The error message states the help files were not installed or the installation has been damaged. Please reinstall. I have reinstalled CS4 and also uninstalled/reinstalled CS4 but get the same error message. The help files have been loaded on my C drive but the CS4 programs are not able to locate and/or open them. I have also removed my anti-virus software and reloaded CS4 but still have the same problem.

This was reported by at least one other user shortly after CS4 was released. In his case, if I remember, he installed using UK English, and the help system was looking in the US_En folder, which was empty.
If you are using something other than US English, try taking a look through the common files help directories and see if the files are actually there under your language folder. Copying them to the en_US folder might solve your problem.

How to upgrade from CS2 Premium to CS4 Design Standard

Have had CS2 Premium running on my Vista machine (32bit) for some time now without problems. Recently purchased CS4 Design Standard upgrade, but have left it in the box for some time. Things have calmed down, ready to try the upgrade. Is there a definitive recommended approach to this - i.e. just install over or remove existing. I've ready countless problems, suggestions etc., but felt by now, there must be a right way to do this. Appreciate any guidance,
Larry

sorry to be a pita, just want to minimize potentail problems. A few more questions then:
1. So are you saying the install doesn't overaly on CS2 but in fact keeps it and installs CS4 separately? That's a lot of wasted mb. Or
2. am I given a choice upon install - over CS2 or new? And
3. if I install in a separate directory, will uninstall of CS2 later on once i'm comfortable with CS4 delete any shared files?

Disk mount problem

I have an external fw disk that stopped mounting properly, at least when I log in under my user name (with admin privileges). The disk shows up in disk utility with the little fw disk symbol and the proper capacity and model name: 372.6 GB OWC Mercury Elite Por-AL 800/400. But the icon for the volume, External HD, appears as a piece of paper with a folded corner. It does not appear in Finder but it is detected in terminal when I run the "mount" command. This problem occurs whether I plug the disk into my iMac (using fw 400) or laptop (using fw 800).
I tried logging in as "guest" and the disk mounts properly and I can access all the folders on it. When I end session as guest and log in under my user name, the same problem as described above recurs.
When I run repair disk, no problems are found.
Any help would be appreciated.

TomK,
I just had your same problem yesterday with my external USB LaCie Porsche disk. I've been using FW disks for years and this never happened to me before.
I tried running the disk tests with Disk Utility, switching the drive on and off, with no result.
Disk Warrior 3.0.3 solved the problem by rebuilding the directory structure. Now it works again and no file was (visibly) lost.
By adding up what I read in this thread, I get to the conclusion that the problem was in the disk (not in the finder prefs) and is not related with USB vs. FW, as at first I guessed.
I'm curious to know if and how you solved your problem.
Could you solve it using a standard Apple utility or some terminal command ?
I can manage unix commands if needed...
Thanks
Piero

Disable "Deactivate" option for all applications in CS4 Design Standard

I am deploying portions of the CS4 Design Standard Suite to a few hundred workstation with a volume license key.
I need to disable the option of "Deactivate" under the help menu. Using the CSDT the registration can be disabled
and after installation it is greyed out for the selected suite applications. We have users that will tamper with it
"just because" its there so removing access is essential. Ive tried adding <Data key="Deactivate">Suppress</Data>
to the AdobeUberInstall.xml with no success.

Well Bob the fact that its available makes people curious as to what it does. My feeling is that if its not present then that reduces a potential problem. The users are all over the country so its not possible for me to walk over to them and ask why they thought it necessary to deactivate the application. I am fully aware that VLK's dont need to be registered DUH! But thanks a lot for the stating the obvious and posting nothing useful.

How to install the CS4 design standard in Windows 7?

I bought the CS4 design standard and install it in Win XP.
Recently, I upgraded my OS to Win7.
However, when I wanted to reinstall the CS4 design standard, it failed.
So I tried just install one function of that design standard : Acrobat 9.0 Pro.
That installation succeeded. But when I want to use it,
it shows that I need to initiate with other CS4 functions, such as CS4 photoshop to make it work.
Is anyone can help me? Thanks!

Hi s2007,
What was the error message that you encountered when you tried to install CS4?
We might have to check the install logs for the installation failure.
Please see Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html for information on how to review your installation logs
You might also want to try the following steps:
> Enable the hidden Admin Account on Windows 7 ( Ref : http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-wi ndows-vista/ )
> Disable all Non-Microsoft Startup Services. (Ref : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-services-windows.html )
> Disable all the Antivirus softwares like CA, Norton,Mc Afee etc. temporarily from the computer.
Reboot and try installing in the new enabled Admin user account and check.
Regards,
Rave
