CS5 Error: 6, Windows 7 64-bit

I'm running CS5 Production Premium on Windows 7 64-bit and little over a week ago photoshop was working normally. Recently it started to not open and gave me the following error:
Configuration error
Please uninstall and reinstall the product.
Error: 6
Also, in the bottom right hand corner I see a windows warning saying that the Adobe PCD\cache is corrupt and unreadable. It turns out the entire Suite is suffering from this problem. The folder that is supposed to contain the cache.db is unreadable.
I uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times so far. The second and third time using tools such as the Adobe Cleaner Tool or Revo Uninstaller. There was no change after the installations. There have been no hardware changes and, to my knowledge, no software updates. It is possible there was a windows update when I wasn't at my computer.
I appreciate the help and if there is any additional information needed please let me know what and either how to obtain it, or a link that shows me how to obtain it.
Thanks again.

@Mylenium: Thanks for the speedy reply. I ran the tool in solution 1 through all three of its choices (run it, reboot and run it, reboot and hit 0) but it didn't change anything. Here's what it printed when it finished each time:
1st/2nd Time:
32/64-bit Anchor Service(s) installed successfully!
32/64-bit Anchor Service(s) installed successfully!
Licensing file not present
3rd Time:
Licensing file not present
I continued down the list of solutions until reaching Solution 5, dealing with the PCD folder that I get a "corrupted file" windows warning for, and I follow the steps and I get stuck on step 16: Applying the "Select the Replace Owner On Subcontainers and Objects option."
A box pops up saying "Changing ownershp of:", but the box is blank and after letting it sit there for 15 minutes doesn't do anything. If I hit the cancel button it switches over to a box saying "canceling" and proceeds to hang there too. I had to use the task manager to kill the program. I then tried it again and recieved the same results
Thoughts?
EDIT: The following solution requires that I delete cache.db file in the PCD folder, but said folder is "corrupt and unreadable" and will not give me access.

Illustrator CS5 Error on Windows 7 64 bit, Uninstalled Illustrator CS5, Tried Re-Installing Illustrator CS5 on same pc new error

Hi,
I have been using the Adobe Creative Suite CS5 for a few years and haven't had a problem.
Recently, illustrator just would not open would get to initializing illustrator.exe and stay there. I tried uninstalling illustrator in the hopes it would fix it with a reinstall.
I got the download file and when I tried to open in to reinstall, I get this error "The file archive part of Adobe Illustrator CS5 is missing. You need all parts in the same folder in order to extract Adobe Illustrator CS5. Please download all parts." I then tried to download the whole Creative Suite and same error message occurred. I am not sure what to do or if I should just uninstall the whole creative suite and start fresh (would rather not because I don't want to lose my preferences and presets).
I am on Windows 7 64bit.
If anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

Uninstalls do not affect user-defined prefs and other custom files, but of course it may be a good idea to back everything up. A reinstall may be the only way to fix this. The error occurs because something else has introduced a flaky entry in the installer database and it goes looking for some file from a source that no longer is available. run the cleaner tool and reinstall everything after you have secured your prefs.

Is there a way to install just the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine?

I have a custom built Java 6 application that doesn't like Photoshop CS5 64 bit edition. The program copies over a file from the network to the local machine and then opens it in Photoshop. The user manipulates the image and saves the changes. The user then completes the image and the application copies the image back to the server. The problem we're having is: When we use Photoshop CS5 64-bit, it takes about 2 minutes for Photoshop to open the image. The file is copied over within 2 seconds and the Photoshop icon on the windows taskbar starts flashing. But then you spend a few minutes waiting for it to open.
Some things that I have tried to isolate the problem:
- I found you can copy the file somewhere else, double click on it and the image will open in Photoshop before the script is able to open the file.
- I tried uninstalling Photoshop and reinstalling just the 64 bit edition without the 32 bit installation. The script just stops working in this situation.
- I tried uninstalling CS5 and installing CS3. The image opens as soon as the file is copied over.
What I would like to try next is to install just the CS5 32 bit version. But the installer is being uncooperative and will only allow either the 64 bit version or both the 64 and 32 bit versions. So, back to my question: Is there a way to install just the 32 bit version of Photoshop CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine?

Do you mean schroot? If so I'm not sure exactly how well that will work out, because the part that depends on python is a deamon that handles communication between the USB dongle and the Tux Droid which may mean hacking the deamon a bit so ether way this does not seem like it will be a easy task.

Problem reinstalling FB4 premium after installing CS5 MC on windows 7 64-bit

Hello,
I was hoping that I could get some help with an issue -- I filed a technical request (ticket) with Adobe but also wanted to reach out here.
Background:
I installed FB4 Premium in March, and had no issues with the download or install -- everyhting had been working fine. Yesterday I installed CS5 MC and in the process of installing it over-wrote the debug versions of flash player that come in FB4 premium with standard flash player. Naturally,that won't work with FB4 so I needed to find a way to reinstall the debug version of flash player plug-in and active x. After trying unsuccessfully for while to do so, I decided it would just be easier to uninstall and reinstall the FB4 download which I still had on my machine, as this comes with the debug players I need. Big mistake. Now I can't get FB4 to reinstall. I am getting the following error messages while running the install set-up (see uploaded image of error message below). Any thoughts at all on how I can resolve this? I did try several reboots, new installs and even re-downlaoded FB4 again from the Adobe store. It appears the presecne of MC5 has caused this somehow?? I run windows 7 64-bit pro. By the way, I did figure out (too late) the way to reinstall the debug flash player -- I first needed to run a script to delete the existing flash player rather than just uninstall it; if anyone needs the script or help on that let me know.
hanks very much -- this has me stumped.
Bob

Hello Chris,
Thank you very much for this insight. It worked. Now I just have a few issues around getting a shortcut for FB4 on the desktop and fixing the FB4 app icon (which now shows up as blank). But it is running as FB4 premium -- Thank you so much!! I have also sent an email to the Adobe engineers working on this case.
I realized that my big mistake was thinking that I needed to reinstall FB4 premium standalone to get FB4 premium to work -- but this was not possible (due to how CS5 installer works) and not needed (because CS5 has all of the code needed to run FB4 premium). The answer (as you described) was simply to go abck to the CS5 installer let it install FB4. While CS5 would initially install FB4 as standard, the serial number "games" described here and in other posts would allow me to upgrade to to FB4 premium. It now works as FB4 premium!
Thank you Chris,
Bob Avena

Camera raw cs5.5 in windows vista 32 bit

I have to install Photoshop again. Version is CS5.5 on a windows vista 32 bit system. It did what it needed to do. Photoshop runs, Bridge runs. That is all I need. However it installed only camera raw 6.0 something. For my files I need at least camera raw 6.3 or newer. Installation however fails. If I try it alone, it says it needs the application manager, if I install the application mnager, it says everything is up to date (which it is not) and if I try to install camera raw, the application manager window pops open, says it is broken and needs to be updated or reinstalled.
True, dng converter works, however it is slower than needed, and I would prefer to get it working right. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Michael

Michi555555 I would recommend reviewing the installation log files for the Camera RAW update which is failing to apply.

Can't Install After Effects CS5 Trial on Windows XP (64 Bit)

I tired to install the AE CS5 trial yesterday on my computer and it had the error message, "Adobe After Effects CS5 is installable only on 64-bit systems." My computer is pretty crappy, but it IS a 64bit system. Here are my specs of this old budget pc...
Running: Windows XP Media Center Edition v.2002 SP3
AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+
2.20 GHz, 1.18 GB of RAM
I knew I would have problems running this program, but I need to at least get it installed so I can work on my animation homework. If you can help at all, it would be greatly appreciated.
*sigh* I'm so sick of this computer, I've wanted a new one for years...

Oh, wow. XP is not supported? Oh well, now I have a valid excuse to not do my homework Thank you.

Ipad4 connection MTP USB device error with Windows 7 64 bit

I have recently bought iPad 4. When I connected to my computer through USB running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit i got the following error message
"MTP USB Device failed to install"
Please guige me

Hello lwalbring and welcome to the Palm forums.
Your Visor, as you suspect, does not have Bluetooth, so you must use the IR HotSync option. Since you are using Windows 7 64-bit, I believe that you are going to have to upgrade to Palm Desktop 6.2.2 to make things work from an OS/Driver perspective.
Since you are using such an old device, you are also going to have to download and install the PalmHotSyncSetup Utility from Pimlico. This update turns on support for old Palm OS PDAs in Palm Desktop 6.2.2. Without the update, you won't be able to sync your Visor with Palm Desktop 6.2.2. The software is free and the link is all the way at the bottom of the screen.
Lastly, if your PC doesn't have an IR port on it, you will need to purchase a USB to IR adapter. Some laptops still have IR ports and most desktops don't.
Once you have all the pieces, you'll want to go back to the Windows 7 and Vista HotSync thread again, and follow the directions for setting up and configuring IR HotSyncs.

"Could not complete the "...."command because of a program error" PE10, Windows 7, 64 bit

I have just done a clean re-install of PE10 on my windows 7, 64 bit desktop because I was getting the "Could not complete the "...."command because of a program error" message every time I try to do anything to my file such as applying a filter, enhance or anything. After I re-installed it, I still am getting the same results, making it completely useless. I do not use PE10 often, as I use Lightroom 5.3 almost exclusively for my picture manipulations, but I do need it for some purposes. Please help.

"...create a new layer by selecting the new layer icon at the bottom of the layers pallet..."
That produces a blank layer. With this blank layer selected, you should get the message "Could not complete the command because the selected area is blank".

Networked HP 1022 text errors on Windows 7 (32-bit)

We have a networked HP Laserjet 1022n that works OK with older PCs, but NOT OK with Windows 7 (32-bit).
1. Text characters are always gibberish from the Win7 PC. Upgrading from MS Office 2010 to 2013 did not fix problem. Web browsers (usually Firefox, Chrome) also print garbage text; either whole page is bad or just bad header/footer text.
2. Printer network connection often hangs up after attempting a print from the Win7 PC, but not from other PCs (WinXP; MS Office 2003, 2007).
3. Text documents print OK from MS Notepad.
4. Images normally print OK alone or in documents, but also hang up printer connection sometimes.
HP Print and Scan Doctor tool detected an "Unknown Error (06)" but could not identify or fix it. Microsoft FixIt scan tool says everything is OK, unless the network connnection is hung up (after attempting to print). Test prints are OK, both from PC software and from printer buttons.

This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

System Update Error on Windows XP 64 bit

When I try to run System Update on my T410 which I have just installed Windows XP 64 bit on, I get the following error message.
Searching for Updates
An error occurred while gathering user information.
System Update does nothing after that.

Hello,
I don't believe that Lenovo ever shipped a T410 with Windows XP Professional 64-bit Edition, so you'll likely need to manually download device drivers for the various hardware components from the various silicon manufacturers' web sites (i.e., Intel, nVidia and so forth).

DTS 2000 Short date error in Windows 7 (64 bit)

When using the DTS 2000 Package Designer in 2008 SQL Server Management Studio in Windows 7 (64 bit),
and when trying to use the Build Query functionality, I get the following error message:
An unexpected error occurred.
[MS Visual Database Tools] - Short date
I don't get this error on my machine running Windows XP. The regional settings on both machines are the same.

Hi Everyone,
I know this is a very old thread. But it came up as the first hit in Google when I searched the error message.
I still have the requirement to update an old DTS package that has been migrated to SQL Server 2008 R2 and couldn't find a solution anywhere.
I didn't want to experiment with client tools on my Database Server so here is what I did on my Windows 7 64 bit machine.
I installed Microsoft Windows Virtual PC and then installed Windows XP Mode as a virtual machine.
Then I installed the following stuff in the virtual XP machine.
SQL Management Studio 2008 tools. Of course I needed to install the SQL 2005 backward compatibility stuff as described elsewhere and quite a few other prerequisites that the management studio installer nicely pointed out to me. (You
will probably also need SQL 2000 Client Tools and SQL 2000 SP4)
Once that was all in place I no longer received the "Short Date" error message and I could update my old DTS packages.
I can even run Server Management Studio as a XP Mode Application directly in Windows 7 and it looks just like any other native application.
I have told my boss years ago that this DTS stuff is all hanging on by a thread. I'll also tell him the thread just got a bit thinner :)
Hope this helps someone else stuck in this position.

CS5 - Error 22:Window does not have a constructor

I've been experimenting with some old sccripts on the Photoshop CS5 pre-release and they seem to work fine except any that have a user interface.Scripts that run fine on CS2, CS3 and CS4 throw a "Error 22:Window does not have a constructor" error message. I was wondering if anyone else had noticed this and if they were aware of any changes as regards to scripting with CS5 and also how to correct the issue.

Dear All,
I have been bothered by this same Photoshop error 22 when trying to use the Photomerge feature or any other of the Automate features in CS5.
My computer is a Windows 7 32bit machine but this should definitely apply to Windows 64bit machines and possibly the same logic may apply to Mac but I do not know.
I didnt find a permanent solution but I did find a temporary fix which will at least allow you to use the function for one opening of the program however if you close and reopen photoshop the problem returns.
Temporary Fix Instructions:
1. Locate the file "Adobe Photoshop CS5 Prefs.psp" on your computer and delete it or move it elsewhere. (I assume by doing this you may lose *** of your photoshop preferences but it will allow you to use photomerge and HDR so you choose)
2. On Windows this file can be found in the User folder under C:\**USER NAME**\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings\ (Replace **USER NAME** with the Windows 7 account user name)
3. After deleting this file or temporarily moving it out of that folder you can then open Photoshop CS5 and use the Photomerge feature as much as you'd like.
4. As soon as you close Photoshop CS5 the program automatically makes a new Adobe Photoshop CS5 Prefs.psp file so when you try to reopen the program it will not work again.
I hope this may be helpful to some people and I hope that Adobe can fix this issue, I have not and dont plan on submitting this as a bug report to Adobe, being that I do not personally own the program (still in 30 day trial) but anyone who would like to, please feel free to do so.

Runtime Error in Windows 7 64-bit version

Has anyone had this issue with Windows 7 64-bit verion using Audition 3.0? When it happens randomly, it corrupts the whole project...

Be sure to download the Audition 3.01 update patch from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4237
Is there any obvious pattern to this crash? Does it occur while performing any specific edit or operation? I know you mentioned it was random, but have you seen it crash while sitting idle, or does it only happen in multitrack?

PS CS5.1 with Windows 7, 64 bit?

Does anyone know if PS CS 5.1 will work on a Windows 7, 64 bit computer? I would appreciate any help on the subject. Thank you!!

Photoshop CS4 works in Windows 7 64 bit for me, so I have no doubts that CS 5.1 will.
