I am using Adobe design premium CS4. It used to work well but recently it has stopped working and displaying error :148:3. I would appreciate if someone could help me to solve this issue.
Thanks,

You have not provided any system information, so we can't advise specifically. This is a licensing error and the standard "cure" is to reinstall the software properly.

My Photoshop CS4 has stopped working - Error 148:3 (Licensing has stopped working).....help!

My Photoshop CS4 has stopped working - Error 148:3 (Licensing has stopped working).....help please?
I've not changed anything since the last time I used it but it's just refusing to work.

Ed,
It seems that there might be some gremlin in the licensing module. The PS CS4 board has several similar instances. I do not know exactly what the problem is, but this should be an easy reset by Adobe. It has worked for the PS users and requires one free telephone call. I am with Harm on this. I doubt that many, if any, users can be of much help. The installation issues *used* to be simple and quick, but I have not had to make that call, since Illustrator 3. Have your S/N handy. If you purchased from the Adobe Store, a receipt # might come in handy too. Once your product has been verified, you'll probably be asked to enter a key, and away you go.
Good luck,
Hunt

Help: CS3 Design Premium suddenly stopped working, won't reinstall

I have a licensed copy of Adobe CS3 Design Premium for Windows (on a machine w/Vista), and everything was working fine until this past weekend, when I was suddenly unable to access any of the programs (with the exception of Acrobat). Every time I tried to open one of the CS3 applications, I'd get an error message saying that there was a problem with the program, and I would have to uninstall and reinstall. So, I uninstalled the entire suite, but every time I try to reinstall, at the end of the process I get an uninformative message stating that "Some problems occurred during installation", and a message under each of the components stating "Component install failed".
Nothing on my computer has changed recently -- I haven't added any software, hardware, or otherwise done anything unusual that might cause this problem. I use this software on a daily basis, so it's become quite a problem for me.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times, always with the same result.
Any help would be appreciated.

Had you run the DNG on a Mac before? On the Mac, the DNG Converter works on folders only, not on individual files (unless you use the Finder to drop the icons of your raw files on the DNG Converter application icon). From within the application, using File > Open, the icon and names of individual raw files will always appear grayed out.
You need to target the folder that contains the files you want to convert.
CAVEAT: all eligible files in the folder will be converted, including any and all DNG files that may already be contained in the folder. So if you have any DNGs in that folder, they will also be converted again and the original DNGs may be overwritten.

Web and Design Premium pack stopped working

Ever since yesterday, my Web and Design Premium pack from Adobe has stopped working. Upon starting the program, it tells me that I'm using a trial-version and that I need to buy a license. This is not true, I bought my license at a real store and I would like it to work properly like it did before. Re-entering my serial number did nothing, and it tells me that my 'serial number is invalid'.
Something that might be a contributing factor to the problem is the fact that I switched internet modem yesterday. Does this have something to do with my Adobe pack not working anymore? If so, what can I do about it?
I really hope I can get my pack working again, as I need it for my job.

"Licensing for this product has stopped working" error 148:3

I have only just installed CS4 Production Premium, opened a CS3 Premiere project and saved it as a CS4 project, then run the updater for Premiere to 4.0.1. When I restarted I got the above message and cannot now use the program.
Anyone know what I should do now?

While upgrading Adobe Creative Suite CS4 ME into Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Design Premium, I get an error saying This serial number is not of a qualifying product, please try another. I used to be able to get a code from customer service but I can't get

While upgrading Adobe Creative Suite CS4 ME into Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Design Premium, I get an error saying This serial number is not of a qualifying product, please try another. I used to be able to get a code from customer service but I can't get to the chat. Please advise!!!!

MoeGhazal I reviewed your account and it looks like you have have upgraded from a CS4 volume license for Design Premium to a retail upgrade of Design Premium 5.5.
I also show that you made two purchases of CS5.5 Design Premium but the second purchase was canceled. Please make sure you are utilizing the serial number which ends in 7886.
If you are using the correct serial number then it is likely the installer will not recognize your volume license CS4 serial number as being valid for an upgrade. If you can contact our support team then you can be walked through an unlocking procedure to allow you to proceed with the installation. You can contact our support team directly at Contact Customer Care. You may want to try installing a web browser you have not previously utilized. It is likely a toolbar or some other software application is affecting your ability to access chat support successfully.
If you are still unable to reach our support team then please verify the information under your account is accurate. If you can please then update this discussion after confirming this then I can request a member of our support team contact you directly.
Again I would recommend reaching out directly if possible as it will be the most efficient method of resolving your current error.

Unable to update parts of Adobe Design Premium CS4

I had to reinstall Adobe Design Premium CS4. I know that there are several updates for this software because I had to do this a few weeks ago and was able to update all the applications that needed updated. This time, I was only able to update Acrobat Pro using the Adobe Update Manager. I was able to download the updates for Photoshop CS4 32-bit and 64-bit, but was unable to update any other applications in the suite. It seems like the updates have disappeared from the Adobe.com servers. There were updates for every other version of the creative suites except CS4. I also checked the FTP site and nothing was there.
I need the updates. How can I go about updating if they aren't on the server. Please advise and thanks in advance.

I ran the cleaner app like you instructed me to do. I tried that and it still didn't work. I tried to install on a different computer. It still didn't work. I know for a fact that the updates for CS4 Design Premium are over 700Mb and there are updates available for Photoshop (32 and 64 bit),Fireworks, Dreamweaver, Flash, etc... I have downloaded 323Mb for Adobe Services and Acrobat CS4. I have always been able to install the updates all at once.
Here is a screenshot of the error:
I have been able to recreate the error three times on my end. This means the issue needs to be fixed on Adobe's end.
Thanks

Where can I download Design Premium CS4?

I have misplaced my Design Premium CS4 disc and need to reinstall on a new computer. I discovered the following link on Adobe's page to download previous versions of CS4: Download CS4 products but receive the following error message when clicking the download link
Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://trials2.adobe.com/Applications/DesignPre/CS4/Win/ADBESTDSCS4_LS1.7z" on this server.

Any help would be much appreciated ASAP! Thanks!

Thanks Ned, this was the issue. I used Internet Explorer on Windows 7 and enabled cookies and the download link worked. Thanks so much!

Design Premium CS4 activation issues

Hi,
I bought Design Premium CS4 some years ago and it was installed on my wives Macbook. As this was running slow and the small screen did not help working, so I decided to install it on my Mac. I first de-registered it on the Mac Book, uninstalled and then put it on my Mac. I now have problems with trying to activate it with the serial number. Its was a genuine purchase and I have my product details stored on my Adobe account inc the serial number, however when i type this into the activation screen it just comes up with a red cross telling me its wrong...its not!
Can someone please shed some light on this as my wife is giving me grief for moving a working copy to one we can no longer use...
Many thanks
Rich

Hello Rich,
did you already work through this: Error "Licensing for this product has expired" | CS4, CS5 ?

ITunes Has Stopped Working Error

Can anybody help with that good ol’ staple “iTunes has stopped working” error?
From event viewer: Faulting application iTunes.exe, version 11.2.2.3, time stamp 0x5383f31a, faulting module CoreFoundation.dll, version 1.750.24.0, time stamp 0x52a28a28, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x000a9908, process id 0xdb0, application start time 0x01cf898260ec3b90.
Tried uninstall and reinstall of both iTunes and Quicktime, also reinstalled as admin for each
Tried with both 32-bit and 64-bit iTunes
Tried removing the files from C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes and C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
Tried copying the .dll files from C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
Opened iTunes in safe mode. It was fine until I tried to view my Match tab, or update iTunes Match, then gave same crash (the error log is actually from safe mode).
It usually won’t crash until I try to view my Match tab or update iTunes Match. Also after I removed the files from the local preferences, I apparently wiped out the library file in the process, because now the only files showing in my library are the maybe 50 or so I’ve purchased through iTunes since I installed to this machine, and not the 10,000+ I’d had in the library before, and that are all uploaded to my iTunes Match, which are all on a local hard drive.
Vista Home Premium SP2 64-bit, up to date on Windows updates.

I've had this problem for months and tried the same "solutions" as drummerboydyl but also none worked.
I did as MusicaBella instructed, except all I changed was the name for #3, i couldn't find #2 to changed, and voila, it worked!
Thanks so much MusicaBella!

Why will photoshop not open after loading it to new iMac computer from an external hard drive and I get this message: Licensing for this product has stopped working:error code: 150:30

Why will Photoshop CS4 not open after loading to new iMac from an external hard drive and I get this message: Licensing for this product has stopped working:error code: 150:30

A Photoshop installation is tied to the machine it was installed on. Moving it to or from a hard drive breaks the licensing.
The answer is easy: Reinstall CS4 from your disc. and apply all updates.

Fresh Install Mac - Licensing for this product has stopped working Error: 6

We just got the new macbook pro refreshes at work and decided to make the switch to standalone CFBuilder.   We downloaded the trial and installed. On launch we get this error, "Licensing for this product has stopped working Error: 6". Every macbook had the same result.   All are running 2 Ghz Quad Core i7 with 8GB of ram.   All of them get the same error.    All have a fresh install of 10.6.6.   Other than installing Air before the CFBuilder install they have no other applications installed.   Other than Air, there are no other Adobe products installed. All CFBuilders were installed under an admin account.
We've tried all the troubleshooting.   Permissions, LicenseRecovery, Setting the clock back to 2010... we even tried reinstalling OSX, then installing acrobat, then air, then CFBuilder with the same result every time.   We even activated the root account on the system and installed under root. Same result every time.    The Flexnet service never gets created unless we use the License recovery tool.   If we install the updater it still makes no difference.
All options for CFBuilder are grayed out under help.   Registration, Deactivation, Updates...
Any suggestions?

Thanks for posting and letting me know. Yes, it is crappy to have to work-around it like that. I noticed when I installed
Builder that it over-wrote some newer files, but I said "Okay to All". I'm using CS4 not CS5 and my newer files were probably better. I'm glad you got your program working at least. My problem is I started my first Project at the wwwroot level, like all the instructions say. It wasn't until I saw Ben Forta's video of it that I realized I was supposed to start a new folder within the wwwroot folder as my Project folder. Now I can't get rid of my first Project folder without DELETING all of the files in wwwroot, WHICH I CANNOT DO. MANY OF THE FOLDERS THERE ARE WORKING WEB SITES! If you know of any way to detach that original Project, I'd sure like to know how to do it.
Thanks,
Tedra
