PS Elements 9 installer failing to initialize on Mac OS

I had a hard drive failer and am in the process of reinstalling everything. I put my PSE 9 disk in and choose install. A window pops up saying "Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem." I downloaded the support advisor and it says nothing is wrong. I tried to install the trial version and got the same message. WTH!!!
Since PSE 10 is now out, I can't find anyplace to download even a trial version of 9 so I can at least put in my serial number and Adobe's website has NOTHING for PSE9. I don't want to pay another $80 when I have a disk for 9 already. Before my HD crash, PSE9 worked perfectly fine.
I'm not a happy camper. I don't know what to do at this point.

Got it loaded. It was a permissions issue. For some reason my log-in as an admin wouldn't allow me to install the application. I saw on another thread that someone had the same issue and they created another login as an admin and loaded it that way. When I called Apple for another issue I was having I told them about this and what the possible solution was and they talked me through creating a new user as an admin. Once that was set up I put the disk back in and it loaded perfectly fine. WHEW!!! I'm a happy camper again. I haven't decided if I'm going to delete that user or not. Just in case I run into another issue down with road with any other applications.
Thank you to the Adobe forum for the information I needed to get this resolved.

Adobe Premiere and After Effects CS6 installer failed to initialize on Mac Book Air

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to install Adobe Premiere and After Effects CS6 for at least a month now.
I have downloaded the .dmg file at the Adobe Website and it starts to initializing the installer, then a error show up:
"The installer could not initialize. Download the Adobe Support Advisor."
There is no Adobe Support Advisor when I clicked on the link. "The Adobe Support Advisor has been discontinued" (http://www.adobe.com/support/loganalyzer/)
I've tried this many times, but every time being a failure.

Adobe CS6 'Installer failed to initialize' on Windows 7. Help!

I downloaded the Adobe Extended CS6 from Adobe.com on to my Windows 7 (HP) Dell laptop on 64bit.
After unpacking the downloaded file, I tried to run the installer but got the message - 'Installer failed to initialize'. It tells me to dowload the Adobe Support Advisor but the program is no longer available. See- Adobe - Adobe Support Advisor
This new link just gives generic links. (Thanks for that Adobe!)
In trying to fix this, I have uninstalled all Adobe Cloud/Flash software and ran the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner and CCleaner tools. And yet the problem persists.
I've lost half a day trying to fix this, so if there's anyone out there who can help I'd be very grateful!

Is your user profile on the C: drive? How about the Temp directory?

Logical System Conversion after system refresh failed

Hello,
Logical System Conversion after system refresh couldn't complete as the printer was locked. This job was run in the background. In SM37, the job log of RBDLSMAP shows as job finished, but it took only 40 seconds. Now I see that the logical system got changed(Converted) in the client settings scc4 but I know that this client being a production client and would run for couple of hours. Here is the job log information.
02/18/2009 16:09:33 Job started                                                                     00           516          S

When try to rerun bdls again, it shows that it is already available and it says "The new logical system name is already assigned to the current client".
Any suggestions on this?
Thanks,
Mahesh

Hi ,
Rerun the BDLS again as this took very little time.
When you try to run again it popsup message saying it already exists just delete that and again put the Logical system name and run it will run that time.
May be while scheduling the job you gave for spool I am not sure why is it looking for Printer which is locked.
Thanks.

After system refresh on oem windows 8.1, windows left deactivated

Hi, Some time ago I upgraded from windows 8 to 8.1, last week I suddenly got a corrupted spool driver which made my laptop unable to boot into windows, blue screen etc. So I did a system refresh in the recovery boot section of windows. (System refresh sets your pc back to factory state without deleting your personal files. ) The refresh went fine, until I had booted into windows again, only to discover my OEM windows 8 was not activated any more!! To make matters worse, the product key is recognized by windows, but it tells me the activationserver blocked my productkey!! I was flabbergasted, I'm an IT guy myself and nothing seems to work to undo this. Tried to call microsoft, they refuse to even pick up the phone so i figure i'll come overhere. Since my laptop is an HP Envy 17-j006ed. How can I reactivate my Windows again???!!! MJWings

InDesign CS6 trial download: "Installer failed to initialize"

Hi, I have successfully downloaded Adobe InDesign CS6, using the Download Manager Software. When I click on 'Install", a window appears with a progress bar ("Adobe Installer"), and the bar gets about 2/3 through, then I get an error message saying "We've encountered the following issues. Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem." Then a link to download Adobe Support Advisor, or button to Quit.
So, I downloaded and ran Adobe Support Advisor. After initializing, the software tells me "no issues detected."
- My machine meets the system reqs for InDesign CS6
- Obviously I have tried restarting my machine and running all these steps again. Still getting the error.
Please help!!! Thank you.

Okay, Mylenium, here are my system specs:
Mac os x version 10.6.8, 4gigs memory, 2.3GHz Intel Core i7 Processor, 470 Gigs of available hard drive space.
I have run all of Apple's software updates up to today, and I have also run cleanup and Disk Utility repairs just in case these are a factor. Still getting the error message with the "Failure to initialize install."
Also: I have installed on my machine InDesign, Photoshop, Flash, Illustrator, Dreamweaver CS5.
Can you help me?

I solved it! Finally!!
I re-read the log of the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool (because the first time i'd not noticed): there was a folder of adobe in common files that conflicted with some installation files so the installer of cs6 master collection failed to initialize!
Im very happy now!

Photoshop CS6 installer fails to initialize

After downloading the Mac version of Photoshop CS6 using Download Assistant, I attempted to install it as a trial. When I launch the Photoshop CS6 install app, it comes back with "We've encountered the following issues -- installer failed to initialize." It suggested Adobe Support Advisor be downloaded to detect the problem. I downloaded and ran that. It comes back with "Inspection could not identify any issues. Please contact Adobe Support for further assistance." So here I am...

At first download the Adobe applciation manager manually from the locations:
Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4774&fileID=4438
Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4773&fileID=4437
Later If you are still facing issue. Rename Media_db, pdb and OOBE folder.
The path for the above files will be:
1: OOBE
Windows: C>Program files or Program files(x86)>Common files>Adobe>OOBE and rename the OOBE folder to like (OOBEold).
Mac OS X : Macintosh HD>Library>Applciation support>Adobe>OOBE .
Note: The library will be hidden in Mac OS X version 10.7 and later you can access the hidden library ie the root library by In the Finder, choose Go > Go To Folder.
In the Go To Folder dialog, type ~/Library and click Go to access the hidden library.
2:Location of Media_db, pdb files.
Windows: C>Program files or Program files(x86)>Common files>Adobe>Caps
Mac OS X : Macintosh HD>Library>Applciation support>Adobe>Caps.
After renaming OOBE, Media_db, pdb files run the Application manager which was downloaded and if the issue still persists then:
Create a new Administartor account and the restart the computer and log in back to the created new admin account , log in to CCm account and then try it will work.

Dreamweaver CS6 'Installer Failed to Initialize' Message on Mac OS 10

I have to reinstall Dreamweaver CS6 after having issues after a hard drive failure. I'm getting an 'Installer failed to initialize' message. I'm on Mac OS 10.10.2. Any suggestions?Dre

Hello,
Where did you get the installer file from?
You can try the link below and download and install Dreamweaver CS6.
During the installation process you would need to select the option to insert Serial number to authenticate.
Download CS6 products
Select relevant file as per your operating system.
