CST Design Premium Applications don't launch.

5 days ago all my CS5 Design Premium programs stopped launching. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the entire package several times, but when I click on any of the icons to launch them, they don't launch. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm running CS5 on a MAC PowerBook.

Ok BJD123* is there one program in particular you are facing this difficulty with?  If you are experiencing difficulties with opening the applications it is usually best to post in that particular Software titles forum.  The users in these forums are usually more familiar with the particularities of that application.  For example if Photoshop is failing to open then you would want to post your Photoshop Version, Operating System, and any applicable errors messages to the Photoshop General Discussion forum - http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop.
You can verify if you received an installation error by reviewing the installation log files.  You can find details on how to locate and review the files at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.
Since the applications started having problems after they were working properly it is unlikely it is an installation error.  At the same time it doesn't hurt to do a quick check for the words ERROR and FATAL in the install logs.

  • Need help downloading entire CS5.5 Design Premium application

    I own CS5.5 Design Premium and I want to download it onto my new Mac. Except, this Mac does not have a place to put my installation CD in. So I am wanting to download Design Premium either in trial version or whatever in which I will input my serial number and thus have full access to all the design premium applications. Yet, I am unable to find the trial version for CS5.5 Design Premium... I have tried to download it via this link here but each time the download does not seem to work/finish. I think it is because it is the full version and believes that I don't have a serial number. I'm not sure. Someone please help me.

  • My Applications Don't launch ..:(

    Hello Again ..!!
    I migrated from Snow Leopard to Mavericks on my late 2009 unibody macbook. The installation went well but now I'm having a terrible time working on my mac.
    Most of my applications such as (Terminal / App Store / Software Update / Camera / iPhoto / iMessage ) don't launch..!!
    My finder acts weird ..!! At times, it'll show the files on my hard drive, at times it goes blank .. The only way out of this is to relaunch..
    Am i the only one facing these issues ..?? Now how will I ever be able to update the upcoming updates when my software update doesn't work ..??
    Please help ..:(

    You ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system.
    The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below.
    If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode.
    *The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

  • Applications don't launch - OS X won't shut down

    I've started having this problem where applications won't launch. The icon just dances and nothing happens. Also, OS X won't shut down, I have to hold down the power button to shut off the computer.
    The only way around the launching problem it is to reboot - on a fresh "boot" applications will launch for a while, but then it will start happening again.
    If I clear caches (using Cocktail or Onyx) then it will shut down gracefully.
    I really need to fix this. I recently switched over from Windows to get away from exactly this sort of thing!!
    It's a pretty new MacbookPro / OS X 10.5.3
    Can anyone help?

    I have tried all of the above and still cannot launch many applications. This came out of the blue. From the console, I get messages like this, but disk utility reports no errors!

  • CS4-Design Premium-Files don't really work

    Hi,
    I work on two Macs with 10.6 MacOS and CS4-DesignPremium. The Problem is, that I can't overwrite the files (Photoshop, indesign, illustrator etc) from the MacBook to the iMac, it said that I don't have the correctly rights, also if I work on the file on iMac, I can't save it as another name. There is the warning, that the file is damaged (Mistake-Code 1). But on the MacBook is no Problem with saving the file.
    Can you help me?

    I think I just threw it in the trash. It was a while ago, so I'm not 100% sure. When I searched "photoshop" on my hard drive, I found the photoshop uninstaller... and my best guess is that if I run that to get rid of it, and then re-run the new software I should be fine.. but I don't want to do anything until I'm sure it will work.

  • Design Premium CS5 dvd media include pdf manuals?

    Delivery of Adobe CS5 Design Premium this morning via FEDEX.  Nicely packaged box contained both Windows and Mac packages within the packaging.  I quickly perused through the Windows media package (total of 3 dvd's...Design Premium applications dvd, Design Premium Content dvd, and finally Acrobat 9 Pro applications DVD).  While I haven't installed anything related to CS5 as yet (busy completing  a full format along with a fresh  Windows 7 Professional 32-bit o/s load) I noticed there is no pdf documentation contained within any of the three dvd's.  Am I missing said items or has Adobe done away with all the electronic documentation I have come to expect as part of this purchase?
    If indeed this is the new "norm" I am kind of disappointed with this decision.  I also noticed I am missing the video workshop dvd similar to what Adobe provided in the past with CS3/CS4 as part of my purchase. I can understand Adobe wanting to go "green" but come on, how much more effort is required to include the electronic documentation.
    Can someone validate my media delivery is intact as delivered or should I call the Adobe support line?

    Thanks Bob-
         Yes, I am still conflicted whether to go 32-bit or 64-bit Win7 Pro.  My company issued laptop is still on 32-bit Windows XP Pro SP3 and not due for trade-up/upgrade for another year or more.  I perform all my design work on a home workstation (Asus P6X58 motherboard with mildly overclocked i7-920 with 6Gb DDR3 memory) so I can go either way.  Downside for me going 64-bit o/s is our company doesn't presently provide 64-bit VPN client to gain access beyond our corporate firewall not to mention 64-bit driver support for my color laser printers are beyond horrible.
    I cannot complain as my prior home workstation was a single core P4 Intel Prescott processor.....ever try to distill a full color 36 inch wide by 48 inch high Indesign poster into a pdf using a single core P4?....ugh

  • Can I upsell (migrate) from CS5 Design Premium to CS5.5 Production Premium WITHOUT losing InDesign?

    I currently own and am a registered user of Adobe CS5 Design Premium. I want to migrate to (and add to what I have already purchased) CS 5.5 Production Premium. I have been told by an Adobe salesperson that if I purchase Production Premium 5.5, I will lose apps. I have purchased in Design Premium that are not also in Production Premium. Can this be true? I hope not. Adding to what I have would force me to throw away apps. that I need and use. Please confirm or deny this awful marketing nonsense.

    You won't be forced to throw away anything! The Production Premium suite doesn't contain all the applications of Design Premium. Thus some of the Design Premium applications will not be "upgraded" to their CS5.5 versions when you install Production Premium. If you don't uninstall Design Premium, the CS5 version of those applications will continue to be available on your system.

  • Design Premium or Master Collection?

    I recently ordered the CS5 Design Premium. I haven't opened the software box yet and that's because I'm wondering, should I have bought the master collection? I ask this because I'm really into creating slideshows for my photos. I already have Lightroom, but don't think the slideshows are sophisticated enough. I like adding sound and ken burns effects to my shows.  I'd also love to be able to create some sort of animations like iMovie does with their themes. Should I be purchasing the Master collection to achieve all of this? Or should I stick with design premium and purchase something like fotomagico?
    Thanks for the help.

    I think the only feature that I'd really like to have that After Effects would provide is the ability to create animations during the slideshow. I would say going with Master collection is more of a luxury than an actual requirement. I definitely need the Design Premium, but don't necessarily need the Master Collection. However, I know that if I end up really wanting after effects, it would be better in the long run to just buy the Master collection. But you know how it goes, you buy something and then don't even have time to learn it! So I'm really undecided.

  • Design Standard, and Design Premium, Design Web, and Web Premium don't show up as applications we can package in Creative Cloud Packager. What app replaces these in CC?

    Using our Enterprise License key Design Standard, and Design Premium, Design Web, and Web Premium don't show up as applications we can package in Creative Cloud Packager. What apps replaces these in CC?

    If your machine does not meet the tech specs for an application, the application will not be listed/offered in the manager.  In this case Premiere Pro CC is a 64-bit application and your machine is 32-bit.

  • I cannot download my adobe creative suit 5 design premium because it says my serial number is invalid but Adobe customer care said it valid...i don't understand why it still not working??

    I have upload my Adode Creative Suit 5 design premium on my first apple mac pro successfully.,i purchased in a retail shop few year ago...!as it have two use of the CD when installing ..i'm trying to install it on my other apple mac pro..but this time it is say that the serial number is not valid..i got it checked by Customer care, they said it is valid and should be working when set up on my laptop..can someone pose help as i don't know who to turn now to find answers...many thanks
    Kind Regards

    Hi Rich,
    The cause of this can be multiple. First of all be sure you use the original CD + serial. In case of a download same story. Try to find out if the installed version match the language of the serial (they need to match). Last but not least: Check if you use a upgrade version, if so it might be needed to fill 2 serials.
    Can you share a screen of the error (please hide the SN )

  • Adobe Create Suite 4 Design Premium for Windows Lost Application disk #2

    Hi, I have the Adobe Create Suite 4 Design Premium for Windows and have lost the Application disk #2 and cannot reinstall this on my new laptop.  I have the licenses and the rest of the disks.  I have called Adobe and they no longer support CS4.  They suggested I try to find someone who has the software and get a copy of disk 2

    I'm not seeing anything but individual applications (and it looks like updates, not installers) in the public forders.
    You should be able to get the trial by going to Download Adobe CS4 and CS3 Free Trials Here (incl. After Effects) | ProDesignTools and following the directions VERY CAREFULLY. There is no differnce between trial and licensed installers, so you can enter your serial number when asked.
    If that doesn't work, send me a Private Message (click my name to go to my profile and see the actions list on the right) and I'll see what else I might be able to do for you.
