  • Adobe Photoshop CS5 "Installer failed to initialize"

    Hey!
    So i Just downloaded CS5, I Open the .dmg and then i click on the install and i get a message which says "Installer failed to initialize".
    According to the support app this is the reason:
    "cpsid_83570: Conflicting processes running while installing - Creative Suite 5"
    I have tried Rebooting and closing all applications but i cant get it to work.
    I shall hasten to add that the first time i ever opened it up it worked but i had to cancel while it was installing.
    Thank you

    I have tried this path in terminal:
    sudo <Alexander Odam's MacBook/Macintosh HD/Users/Alex/Documents/Adobe Photoshop CS5/Install.app>/Contents/MacOS/Install
    But nothing happens:
    Is there something i am doing wrong?
    Thanks

  • Adobe Ps, Ai ad Id CS5 installer fails to initialize

    I have recently encountered a problem while working with Ps CS5 that somehow affected the performance of the other Adobe programs on my pc. I uninstalled them all and tried re-installing, but the installer constatly fails to initialize no matter which package I'd launch. From what I've read on the internet, the problem could be of any kind so I'm kindly asking for some advice given the info on my PDApp.log that follows at the end. If anyone could "read" it and navigate me through what I could do next to eliminate the problem, I'd really really appreciate it! Thank you!

  • CS5.5 Design Premium: installer failed to initialize

    Ok, I'm having this problem.  This started because I had to perform a system restore.  I ended having to go back so far with the system restore that all of my Adobe Products(among others) no longer appeared to be installed. 
    So I downloaded Adobe CS5.5 Design premium from a link mentioned elsewhere in the discussions.  Everything extracts fine, but when I execute the installer it always prompts "installer failed to initialize".  I have downloaded the Adobe support advisor.  It shows multiple:
    cpsid_82829s1: "A restart is pending," bootstrapper error has occurred.
    Click here for details and corrective actions related to this issue.
    I have clicked the links(http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-error-messages-bootstrapper-cs5.html)  below and followed the instructions.  There is no "InProgress" Entry in the registry in the locations provided.   I have also ran the "Adobe CS5 Cleaner Tool " Multiple times and have removed ALL.   I have deleted every directory on this computer that says Adobe.   
    This is a clients computer and we REALLY don't want to wipe and reload(Money/time and all that).  Can anyone help me with this error?

    System restore is a first resort for most people when there is a problem in Windows.  Obviously it wasn't a hit in this situation.  I know a wipe and reload would fix it.  If you read my post you'd see I'm trying to avoid that.  If you have any information that can help me there I would love to know it. 

  • CS5 Master Collection error: Installer failed to initialize, help?

    When I first opened the CS5 installer, it worked perfectly, except my computer crash halfway through the installation. Now whenever I try to install an application, when I open the Adobe Installer, once it finishes Initializing the installer, I immediately get the "Installer failed to initialize" message. How do I fix this?

    Run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and clean out the temporary files created during install in your temp directory. Additioanlly, check your task manager and terminate any rampant instances of setup.exe and msiexec.exe that may stil lbe running.

  • Installer failed to initialize / cpsid_83578r3 / CS5 on OSX Mavericks

    I own Adobe CS5 PRODUCTION PREMIUM and have successfully used it for a number of years on my Mac OS X computer. Recently I could not get After Effects to open so I uninstalled it, intending to reinstall it. I have recently installed the new Mac OS X "Mavericks" on my computer. Right now, I cannot get the disc installer to work--I get an error saying, "Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem." which I did:
    cpsid_83578r3: Error, "Validate license at Pre-chrome" when installing - Creative Suite 5
    Click here for details and corrective actions related to this issue.
    I have searched Adobe forums for solutions. However, I have found no solutions. I REALLY need this software to work for my new job. What do I need to do to get AE to install from my CS5 Production Premium discs? I can still use other CS5 programs, but not AE...please help!

    Jneigh there is no need to post your token number as the service which allows us to collect the installation logs is no longer available.

    After the CD install failed with the "Installer failed to initialize" ewrror I contacted support and they gave me a download link... same error message. 

    That's strange, Are you checking at the below location ?

    Run the installer again, and after error prompt, please collect the logs from TEMP folder(location stated above) and share.

  • Adobe Indesign CS5.5 Disc - Installer failed to initialize

    I have been trying unsuccessfully to install my Adobe Indesign cs5.5 disc for the first time into my Dell Latitude E6400 laptop (Windows vista, intel core2 /duo - I meet all the system requirements). I keep getting the message "Installer failed to initialize. Please contact Adobe support."
    I followed the indesign cs5 help suggestions at adobe.com and ran the Adobe Cs5 cleaner tool. This did not help. I also turned off my anti-virus to be sure.
    Should I instead download the program from the internet and then enter my serial code? Is this my only option? Could you please give me some other suggestions.  Your help is greatly appreciated.
    David

    David:
    I ran Adobe Support Adivsor toll, and the response was "Inspection could not identify any issues." I did not see any log files.
    Just to confirm, you went to %APPDATA%\Local\Temp and found that there were a lot of files there, but there was not one called PDApp.log? Are you sure you have the right path?
    If that's so, then the installer is failing really early. I suppose it's silly, but have you tried rebooting?
    I find it doubtful that uninstalling Acrobat or Reader would help. Though I am slightly curious whether their Uninstallers launch. (For most Adobe products, the Uninstaller and the Installer are very similar, and they both do a bunch of checks and then pop up a window. For uninstallers, there is a chance to confirm before uninstalling. It would be interesting to know if the uninstallers fail to start the same way your InDesign installer has failed. But Acrobat is the product Least Like all the others. It's uninstaller might not behave this way, I'm not sure).
    Still, we are getting down to weird or obscure problems. So it may be time to try solutions that are abnormal.
    So, lacking anything better to do, assuming you have quadruple-checked for the above log file, why don't you go with your initial idea and try downloading the trial installer. And if it still doesn't work, sure, try uninstalling Acrobat first.

  • Your installation encountered errors. Installer failed to initialize. (CS5.5 upgrade)

    I am trying to install CS5.5 on an HP laptop running Windows 7. It is an upgrade version. I had it installed once, but InDesign did not function fully (could not access any tools or choose any of my paragraph style definitions). So I uninstalled and tried again. Now I can't get past the "Finish" window that reads as follows:
    Installation Status
    Your installation encountered errors
    Please try restarting your system and installing again
    Installer failed to initialize
    Contact Customer Support for further assistance
    <Click> DONE
    First let me say that contacting "Customer Support" is ineffectual. They will tell you that it is a tech problem and to contact Technical Support.
    Before I began getting this message over and over, upon installation, I would be told that the resolution of my monitor did not meet minimum requirements and needed to be set to at least 1024 x 768. My monitor was set to 1600 x 900.
    How can I get CS5.5 Design Premium to install on my laptop? TYSM (in advance) for any help.

    CyberAmazon54 I would recommend reviewing the installation logs for the Creative Suite 5.5 software you are trying to install.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation logs at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • "Installer Failed To Initialize"? After Effects CS5 Mac, Help!!!

    I'm in serious need of some help here. I downloaded the After Effects CS5 trial, but when I go and try to install it I get an error:
    "Installer Failed To Initialize. Please Download Adobe Support Advisor To Detect The Problem"
    I already tried Adobe Support Advisor, but it didn't detect any problems.
    I tried re-downloading the file again, but still no luck.
    I'm running an iMac with Mac OS X 10.6.2, Intel Core 2 Duo Processor.
    Can anyone please help me?

    Hi.  I see this thread is old...last post is july 2010.  However, since I just had a similar issue and since a google search brought me here, i figure id share my info with other who my hit this too...
    i have os x 10.7 and am trying to install cs5.5 master collection.  i kept getting the installer failed to initialize error.
    by looking at the PDApp.log, i saw an error and fixed the issue causing the error...
    my issue was when launching Install.app, it looks for ~/Applications and creates a folder "Adobe" in it.  I had an alias in my home dir and the log showed the installer didnt see it as a valid directory.
    by removing the alias, the installer then created the folder "~/Applications/Adobe" for me.  However, since it created an empty folder named Applications, separate from the actual /Applications dir, this was not acceptible.
    So, if i right click on /Applications and hit "Make alias" and move that to my home dir...same issue.
    But, if i open Terminal.app and type "sudo ln -s /Applications" the seemingly same type of alias or "symbolic link" is created, but instead the installer see the dir as valid, and the install went flawlessly.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • Photoshop CS5 installation trouble - ' Installer failed to initialize '

    Greetings,
    Having trouble with a CS5 photoshop installation on my 4,1 2.5ghz 6gb RAM MBP.  Download goes fine, disc mounts to machine, but I get stuck on the ' Installer failed to initialize' page.  Downloaded the reccomended support advisor app, which cannot find a solution to my problem.
    The log reveals the error:
    [FATAL] Setup - Unable to copy PDAppFlex.swf one level up.
    Not sure where to go from here.  I've downloaded the dmg 2x, done numerous restarts, tried the cs5 cleanup tool, repair permissions....no dice.
    I should mention  that I have a 48gb SSD with my OS (10.6.3) as well as a 200gb drive which has my user account on it, separate from the OS.  Not sure if this is part of the issue?
    Thanks in advance,
    Kyle

    In order to test the utility perform the following steps -
    Goto /Applications/Utilities and launch Terminal application. This will open a window and show you the command prompt like machine-name: user$. ditto is a command to copy files, so type ditto then drag a file to the terminal, and drag a folder to the terminal. This will create a command similar to -
    ditto /Users/username/Desktop/fileToCopy.txt /Users/username/Desktop/folder/
    Now hit return to run the command. If the command succeedes you will not see any error on the terminal and the file (as fileToCopy.txt) will get copied to destination folder (as /Users/username/Desktop/folder/)
    In case you see any error on the terminal or the file is not getting copied to the destination folder, 'ditto' might be corrupted.

  • Installer fails to initialize, CS5 Web Premium, Mac OSX 10.7.3

    OK I had a trial of Dreamweaver 5.5 on my Macbook which has expired. I uninstalled and now I'm trying to install our web premium cs5. Getting error, 'installer failed to initialize'
    Downloaded the support advisor, it says there are no issues.
    Any ideas ?
    Rich

    Fixed. We created an ISO from the web premium DVD and copied that onto the Mac, then used the Mac ISO mounter and it installed fine from there.
    Thanks
