CS4 error 150:30

My Mac had to be replaced and I used my backup hard drive to load the new one.  Nothing in CS4 will boot, giving me this message about licensing. I tried to follow the instructions to repair this -- cannot locate the folders they say are buried in my hidden library.

You cannot find anything because they are not there. You need to reinstall the software properly, not use obscure backups.

  • Photoshop CS4  Error 150:30

    I had my hard drive replaced in my mac and when I hookup up time mating I'm having trouble with my photoshop cs4 working.  It's giving me Error 150:30  Not sure what to do.

    Kim Stahnke did you install the software on the replacement hard drive or copy/migrate the application and licensing files?

  • CS4 Error 150:30 student license

    Migrated CS4 to a new Mac pro with OS Lion. Get error 150:30.
    Tried downloading license repair dmg file, deactivaated old license on old computer, no result and seems cannot talk to a human at Adobe because it is Sunday.
    Any ways round this?

    You can try the instructions in this document, which applies to the "150: 30" error message: Error "Licensing has stopped working." If you want person-to-person support, I recommend our  chat support at http://adobe.ly/v6wfLL. They'll be able to address the issue you've described. And while they aren't available on weekends, they are available during the week, I believe until 7pm PST.

  • Mac OS 10.10, CS4: Error 150: 30 "License has stopped working"

    I recently did a hard drive restore from Time Machine.  I'm running OS 10.10 (Yosemite) and have worked my way through the recommended solutions to Error 150:30, as per the Adobe support site.  However, none of them specifically point to OS 10.10- most only go as high as OS 10.8.  What can be done to correct the problem within the 10.10 system, without completely re-installing the software?
    Thank you

    Or try what they suggest here:

    Oh, and make sure everything's updated.
    Hope that helps!

  • CS4 error 150:30 with Yosemite

    Hello
    I've tried everything all 9 "solutions" here: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
    including a reinstall of Yosemite. Nothing works.
    I have the Adobe CS4 cds, with box and serial numbers, one computer running it... etc
    Please help!

    I'm working on the same sort of problem...
    Some people say their CS4 still works on 10.10, so I'm trying to make it work.
    Apparently, migrating/restoring from a backup is something adobe doesn't like, so it either gets scrambled or deauthorizes your computer.
    Did you uninstall CS4 this way?
    Like Gener7 said:
    Uninstall, check Remove Preferences
    Do a Repair Permissions from Disk Utility
    Reinstall from discs, and if you do not have them, download from here:
    Download CS4 products
    (Updates here:)
    Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh
    Or try what they suggest here:
    150:30
    Oh, and make sure everything's updated.
    Hope that helps!

  • Unable to open CS4 - error 150:30

    I've been using CS4 just fine for a long time. Suddenly when I try to open it I get an error dialog telling me that my licensing has expired. Error code 150:30. As far as I can tell, nothing has changed. I tried uninstall and then reinstall from original disk. No luck. Contacted Adobe Support. First they told me to remove the FlexNet Publisher preferences folder from my Library folder at root level. There is not such folder there. They then told me to modify permissions on one of the folders. Did that but still no success. Also tried repairing all disk permissions via Mac disk utility. Still no luck. Now they tell me that they can't/won't give further support because my version is too old (apparently only CS6 and CS5 qualify for support).
    I am running this on Mac OS 10.7.5.
    Only thing I have done that I can trace as a possible culprit was that I installed a new film scanner. As part of its software install it started to install a bundled copy of Photoshop Elements. I aborted that install. Subesequent to that I discovered I could not open my copy of CS4. There may be no relation but that is one thing I've wondered about.
    If anyone can help, I would sure appreciate it.

    Try CS4 licencing.

  • Photoshop CS4 - Licensing Error 150:30

    I have a MacBook with the OS X Maverick Operating System and have had no prior issues using my Photoshop CS4. My computer recently crashed and had to have my operating system re-installed. I tried to open up Photoshop today and this window popped up: "Licensing for this product has stopped working". I tried restarting the computer like the window mentioned and that did nothing. I also tried the solutions listed on the Adobe website for the Error: 150:30 and nothing has worked. My main problem is I cannot finish the "solutions" because I cannot locate the folder "FlexNet" or "FlexNet Licensing" or anything of that nature that is referred to in the solutions.

    The Licensing repair tool does work. OSX 10.7 and above:
    Download and open LicenseRecovery111.dmg on your Desktop
    Open Terminal and type sudo and leave a space. <do not press "Enter" yet>.
    Open the License Folder on the opened LicenseRecovery111.dmg and drag
    "LicenseRecover.py" file into the Terminal Window.
    The sudo command and path to the .py file should look like the screenshot below.
    Press Enter to begin
    Type in your password, but know that you will not see dots or asterisks as you type.
    Press Enter again, let the script run and finish. You should be able to run Photoshop now.
    (If this answer solves it, mark it as "correct" or get back to me if it doesn't.)

  • Error 150:30 after restoring CS4 from Time Machine backup

    Do I need to uninstall CS4 and reinstall?
    Unfortunately yes.
    Also run the Cleaner Tool prior to reinstalling
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Restoring from Time Machine backups invariably breaks the activation mechanism (Error 150:30) and there's no easy way to fix a 150:30 error other than via re-installing.

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended - error 150:30 - "LicenseRecoveryLauncher" not supported on Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10

    I recently upgraded to Mac OSX Yosemite 10.10
    When I try to open Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended it says error 150:30 Licensing for this product has stopped working.
    I followed the help advice which says to download some software to mend the problem but it wont launch - error message You can’t open the application “LicenseRecoveryLauncher” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
    How can I fix the problem?

    OS 10.7 and above uses the python script (.py) which is included in the License Recovery kit.
    Mac OS X 10.7
    a. Double-click the LicenseRecovery111.dmg
    Note: Leave this window open and proceed to the next step.
    b. Double-click your Hard Drive.
    c. Double-click Applications.
    d. Double-click Utilities.
    e. Double-click Terminal.
    f. Type “sudo python “
    Note: There is a space following “python”. Do not press Return.
    g. Drag LicenseRecover.py from the LicenseRecovery folder onto the Terminal Window and press Return. Note: Make sure that the Terminal window has the command and the path to the APP file. For example: "sudo python /Volumes/LicenseRecovery\ 11.6.1/LicenseRecovery/LicenseRecover.py”
    h. Enter your administrator user name and password when prompted and click OK.
    i. Follow the onscreen instructions.

  • Getting Error 150:30 in Photoshop CS4

    Had a HD crash and reinstalled CS4 on the new HD and get error 150:30.
    Does anyone know how to correct and activate PS, thank you?

    Are you running LicenseRecoveryLauncher.app? That's for 10.6.8
    If you type in the password, the cursor will not move or show dots. So you ignore that, simply type the password and press enter.
