Download Assistant not working

For the past few days I have tried to download some trial versionof Adobe products only to have the Assistant hinder every attempt.  It simply freezes and no download begins.  I have searched the knowledgebase and the "solutions" do not work. 
Does Adobe NOT want anyone to try or buy their products?  The "assistant" is total garbage.

Bklynyolee do you receive any error messages when trying to download the software?  Which operating system are you using?  Did you customize the location chosen to download the install files too?  If so what destination did you choose?

  • Adobe Download Assistant not working after bluescreen

    I like to get the trial for Photoshop Elements 10 but the ADA is broken:
    Under Windows 7 I already used the ADA to download and install Adobe Premiere 10 successfully a week ago.
    Then I tried to get Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 but my system crashed with a bluescreen. The computer is fine again but ADA is not working anymore:
    - after startup it doesn't list any (!!!) product to download. The list is just empty
    - I can enter my username and password and click login. Then the buttons are greyed out and nothing else happens. I have to kill the application with the task manager then.
    - I can apply for a new user account but it greys out and gets stuck like as the login.
    - The help buttons lead to empty Pages in the web browser.
    I tried to uninstall ADA and reinstall it (two times) but the behaviour stays the same.
    I tried to find direct download links (the FAQs told me that there should be some) but every download page will use the ADA. I'd be fine with a plain ftp page for the trials. :-)
    I'm an IT professional but I've no idea how to get ADA working, wiped from disk to get it reinstalled or to download the trials on another way. Please help.

    I will try to install at a different location this afternoon.
    The other thread handles a different situation: "... the Adobe Download Assistant launches, asks me to sign in ... I get a nice "Welcome, Steve" message ... and a list of related products below with links to download their trials ... The Help link takes me to an Adobe Download Assistant FAQ page ..."
    - I cannot sign in and don't get a welcome message.
    - I don't see a list of products.
    - The help link takes me to an empty page.
    BUT: where does the ADA get the list of products from? Is it online or local? If everything is online where I am blocked (sign in, list, help), I'll check the firewall. Perhaps the bluescreen crash changed something.

  • Adobe Download Assistant not working on Lion

    I successfully downloaded and installed the trial of Design Premium a couple days ago (but not without having to try to install download assistant a couple of times) and I'm now trying to download AfterEffects but I'm having no luck. I either get an error that says that an version of AIR that I need can't be found (and if I try to install AIR I get that same message!) or I get an instant crash from Download Assistant saying that it couldn't restore windows. I'm trying to reinstall download assistant but having no luck with that either. I'm on Mac OS Lion. Thoughts?

    Never mind. Kept trying the same thing and now it works. Weird!

  • Adobe Download Assistant Not working

    I tried all the troubleshooting many times it still will not work. I keep getting error 107. I put in my id and then it stops and will not download after effects.

    Do you receive the error as soon as you open the Adobe Download Assistant?  Where did you choose to download the install files too?

  • Re: Adobe Download Assistant not working after bluescreen

    I'm having the same problem on mac osx lion:
    I downloaded adobe download manager
    I installed adobe download manager
    I launche adobe download manager
    No features of adobe download manager are functional. I get a welcome screen that asked me to sign in, yet the sign in link and the help link in the upper right hand corner are not responsive.
    I cannot quit the application.
    I must force quite to exit the application.
    I have reinstalled twice, including downloading the software a second time.
    I think you folks have a bad build of the ada.

    I installed http://codykrieger.com/gfxCardStatus and disabled graphics switching and the adobe download assistant still did not function.
    One would think that a software company such as adobe would make an application that does not require a large segment of users to go in and fiddle with settings just so that they can download a trial version of adobe software.  This is really lame.

  • RealPlayer download feature not working in Firefox (but works in IE)

    Realplayer download feature (cursor over a youtube video, "download this video" pops up) has recently quit working for me (I've been using it for months). I've searched knowledge bases and forums extensively and tried all the suggestions., such as rolling back from Flash Player 11.5 to 10.3 (no luck), disabling/enabling RealPlayer Download plugin in Firefox (no luck), etc. The one suggestion I'd like to try but can't is going into RealPlayer preferences and enabling/disabling the "Download and Record" function. I can't because all I have in my preferences is "Recording" and the options have nothing to do with downloading. None of the RealNetworks/RealPlayer support sites are helpful at all...
    However, the download feature works just fine in Internet Explorer

    Realplayer download does not work in Firefox. Someone suggested ant.com as an add-on. That works.
    For youtube I use YTD downloader (a youtube product). It is more reliable for youtube videos.

  • CD installation disk download link not working

    I'm trying to download the CD installation disk for the WRT400N.  The disk came with the router
    but the glue on the label got on the disk and makes it almost unreadable.
    Can someone check that link to see why the .iso file is only a couple of bits in size?  Should be @400mb.
    Thanks

    Yes, it can be configured without the disk, I realize that.  This is my first experience with routers and wi-fi, so I would like a better copy of this disk I paid for.  But the link for that download does not work.  I was addressing that.
    The disk I got had a dot of glue from the label on it and while it worked, it took almost half an hour to get it done.
    Part of the disk is unreadable when I tried to copy it, so I want to download the .iso file to create a backup disk.
    That's it!

    the apps we have downloaded are not working,  please help,  extremely frustrated with our ipod 4

    See my previous reply for for the apps closing.
    For the wifi problem:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect OK before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router

  • Exchange 2010 Out of Office Assistant not working?

    New server with a new Exchange 2010 install into an existing domain...
    When users on both the internal network and external network try to access the Out of Office Assistant they get an error message of: " Your Out of Office settings cannot be displayed, because the server is currently unavailable".
    I have done tons of research on WebServicesVirtualDirectory and AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory and set both internal and external URL's that work if you go to them in IE )internally and externally offsite).

    Test-OutlookWebServices comes up with errors. The Test E-mail AutoConfiguration within Outlook still appears to be looking for Autodiscover at different URLs...
    OOF within Outlook Web App functions.
    Any suggestions would be helpful!

    From your previous post, I understand that OOF doesn't work for both internal and external clients. Error message "Your Out of Office settings cannot be displayed, because the server is currently unavailable" was received from Outlook client side. Please correct me if I have any misunderstanding.
    Before we go any further, I would appreciate your help in clarifying the following questions:
    1. When did this issue begin to occur, since the installation of Exchange 2010?
    2. Can we access and configure OOF from OWA?
    As internal & external clients are using different methods/URL to access Autodiscover and EWS, which provided OOF service, I recommend we focus on the internal users first.
    To troubleshoot this issue, please install the hotfix mentioned in the following KB on the Exchange Client Access Server first:
    Outlook 2007 crashes or you cannot access OOF settings after you install a package that contains the .NET Framework 3.5 with SP1 and the .NET Framework 2.0 with SP2 on an Exchange 2007 Client Access server or on an Exchange 2010 Client Access server
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/958934 
    After that, check if the issue remains. If there is still problem, please help me collect:
    1. Test E-mail AutoConfiguration from Outlook client
    1. Launch Outlook 2007 using a correct configured profile.
    2. Hold down the CTRL key on your keyboard and click the Outlook icon in the notification area of the Windows taskbar, also known as the notification area.
    3. In the menu that appears, click Test E-mail AutoConfiguration.
    4. Enter your E-mail Address and Password (if not logged into the domain) in the respective edit boxes.
    5. Choose the desired auto configuration methods with Use Autodiscover, clear other selection.
    6. Click Test.
    7. Please send me the screenshot of the result tab and log tab.
    2. Result files after running the following command on the Exchange 2007 server
    Get-ExchangeCertificate | FL >C:\cert.txt
    Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory –Server ServerName | FL >C:\EWS.txt
    Get-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory –Server ServerName | FL >C:\Audis.txt
