Error "print driver host for 32bit applications has stopped working"
Got this error when trying to "print" a gmail message to a pdf file. After some research (trial and error) I found that in my case this message is due to the subject line of the message generating an invalid Windows file name. Using the subject line to generate the filename is how GMail decides to generate the file name. I guess this is as good a strategy as any. I cannot think of a better strategy for GMail (would not want that "feature" changed).
Solution: Forwarded message to myself with a subject line that does not generate an invalid Windows file name and then "printed" that forwarded message.
Software: Adobe Acrobat Pro. OS: Win 7 64-bit. Application: Chrome accessing GMail. But I conjecture that this error message is not dependent on the specific configuration I have. For example, I recall having a failure when trying to do "print" a GMail message under 32-bit vista though I do not recall the error message (was very likely different :-). In that case I copied the message into Word and moved on leaving it as a mystery.
Adobe solution (I suppose) is that Acrobat (distiller) needs to check the validity of the Windows file name and give back a rationale error message before passing to the OS.
Hope this helps somone out there.
I am having the exact same problem. I have Windows 7 Pro 64-bit and Design Premium CS 5.5. InDesign is the ONLY program that will not print to any printer. I get the "Printer selection failed." error every time I select any printer, even the Adobe PDF one. I have a Brother printer, an HP Plotter, and even an Oce copier/printer. InDesign gives the error no matter what printer is selected form its own list. Photoshop and Acrobat do not give me any issues, nor does any of the MS Office programs nor Autodesk softwares. It's only InDesign that fails. Reparing doesn't do anything and reinstalling every printer driver is pointless because it's only InDesign that produces the error.
Does anyone know what to do to fix this?

Print driver host for 32bit application has stopped
Hi.
I'm being asked to troubleshoot an issue with very limited access and I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.
Users are connecting to a WIndows 2008 R2 SP1 server using RDP. They are printing to HP Printers from within the RDP session. The Printers are installed onto the server as TCPIP printers. The error is a crash of SPLWOW64.EXE, and it references the file 'HPZUIWN7.DLL'.
The application they are printing from is 32-bit.
My biggest hurdle is the fact that I am expected to solve the problem, but have limited access to the environment and the people who have the required access are more interested in applying blame for the problem than fixing it (exacerbated by the fact that
if I am right in my diagnoses, they are the cause of the problem in the first place.)
I am of the opinion that the issue is 32/64-bit driver conflict related, but am a bit confused as to the recommended configuration for an environment like this. To summarize my question:
On a 64-bit OS that hosts multiple RDP Sessions (which could be from 32 or 64 bit workstations) that is used primarily for a 32-bit application, should we install the 32-bit print drivers, the 64-bit print drivers or both?
NOTE: I have some .DMP files related to the crash, but as of this stage I'd argue that the troubleshooting hasn't gotten to the point to justify trying to debug those yet.
Thanks for your time.
DanI'm not sure why the method is the name that it is. I'm pretty sure MS blocked 16bit app support on 64bit machines.
The failure in the HP UI module is in this method
INVALID_POINTER_READ_c0000005_HPZUIWN7.DLL!CHPCommon::VUpdateResolutionFor16BitApps
They are not checking the memory before using it and it's not a valid pointer and crashes the process.
I'll send this to one of the guys that works for HP but there is not a way for the HP code to get updated like we do with system components. The Office team has a report on this binary and method crashing office applications in 2012, but
it does not look like the issue was every handed off to HP, not that HP could address it then.
The FIRST thing I would do is change the resolution you have configured for the printer just to see if that initializes the data I assume the driver is looking for.
The next thing would be trying a different driver for the device. If you find a newer driver that uses HPZ6RWN7.DLL, it has the same defect.

Print driver host for 32bit applications - Stopped working
Hey everyone, when I print to the Adobe PDF Converter print driver it will become unresponsive. It might work for 4 or 5 print jobs and the crash. This happens when printing from Illustrator CS5.5, IE9 and Visio 2010.
What normally happens is I will choose "print" then select "Adobe PDF" as the printer, the print progress bar comes up but not the explorer window where I choose to save the PDF. The Illustrator/IE/Visio crashes.
The only way to be able to print again is to logout and log back in to the machine. I've read some others re-starting the splwow64.exe but I haven't tried that.
I'm running a Windows7 Pro, 64-bit, SP1. Adobe Design Premium CS5.5, Acrobat X Pro. Everything is updated to the latest version.
Any ideas? Adobe?

Error 150:30, "Licensing for this product has stopped working"
I recently updated my Mac OS, and am getting error 150:30, "Licensing for this product has stopped working" on all my CS4 products. The license repair tool will not launch in Mavericks. Help?
CS4 is completely unsupported under Mavericks and using an upgraded
operating system is nothing short of a crapshoot.

Error 148.3 (licensing for this product has stopped working)
I received error 148.3 (licensing for this product has stopped working). I looked up the error, but the fix says it is only for "... Creative Suite 3 or 4 products, Acrobat 8 or 9, Photoshop Elements 6, 7 or 8, Director, and Technical Communication Suite." and RoboHelp is not mentioned. Is RoboHelp part of the Technical Communication Suite? I tried phoning support, but the person had not even heard of RoboHelp. Does anyone know how I rebuild the license file? Note that Acrobat professional comes up okay. I need to compile soon for a product release and feel so frustrated.
Thanks,
JacquiAnd we're back. Writing the question made me check what the Technical Communication Suite is. It includes RoboHelp, so I went ahead with the LicenseRecover as recommended on the Adobe site and the system now works.

Can't start my old Photoshop CS4. Error:150:30 Licensing for this product has stopped working
I can't use my PS CS4 because it seems the licensing has stopped working. I restarted the Mac few times but this error seems to persist.
It's an extremely common error with CS4. It means the licensing is broken. For people not really familiar with Terminal, my best answer is to suggest a fresh install from your discs to fix this. You will have to reapply all updates.
Since the Help > Update part is not working well, download and install your updates (Photoshop, Bridge, Adobe Camera Raw) from here Product updates.
Usually this happens when Photoshop is moved from another computer, from a backup like Time Machine, or even as OSX upgrade to Yosemite. -
As it says in the title. I cannot use my edit suite because I get this message each time.
Any body help please.

Error message opening PS CS3 Extended : "Licensing for this product has stopped working"
I used Migration Assistant to transfer data from my (very) old Mac OS X to a new iMac OS X Yosemite. Before doing so, I uninstalled my (also very old) PS CS3 Extended. When I tried to open PS on the new Mac it asked me to download Java, which I did. But now when trying to open PS again the error message is "Licensing for this product has stopped working". I purchased it about 5 years ago in a box which I no longer have, but I do have the complete 24 digit serial number. How best do I remedy this?
Download the Photoshop CS3 installer Max or PC here. You should be good to go.

Print driver host for 32 bit applications has stopped working
I just bought a Hp ENVY 7640 printer. I cannot use the wireless printing on my 64 bit computer, with Windows 7. I get an error message "print driver host for 32 bit applications has stopped working". I have looked into all of your online support solutions and nothing I have tried has fixed the problem.
Was there any resolution to this issue? We have a user with the same issue. The details of the error are:

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.

Satellite L500D-144 - CCC Host Application has stopped working
Ladies and Gentlemen,
my PSLT6E-007004GR is almost a year old.
Earlier this month there was an update - possibly from Microsoft - and since then popt always at startup in Windows 7 this window and look for solutions:
Catalyst Control Center. Host Application has stopped working, it is searched for a solution.
A new installation of the graphics card driver and Catalyst Control Center did not change. Instead, a standard graphics card driver from Microsoft is installed.
Resetting the system to the month of October also brought nothing, for after fresh updates, the problem occurs again.
So it is reproducible.
Have already reported more customers or am I the first?
What can you do to the problem?
Sincerely,
CBluebaerchenHello
> Resetting the system to the month of October also brought nothing, for after fresh updates, the problem occurs again.
Do you get this display driver update from Windows Update?
If yes restore the system to an earlier point and disable this display driver update and choose only the important updates from Windows. Thats enough.
Otherwise you could try to run CCleaner. It can clean and fix registry problems. -
I previously installed Adobe Photoshop CS4 on my Macbook Pro. My hard drive crashed, and I had to get a new hard drive replaced. Now upon trying to reinstall CS4 from a backup copy CD (with licensing, serial number available), I receive an error 6 stating that the "licensing for this product has stopped working". Has anyone experienced this or know how to troubleshoot? Any advice appreciated. Thank you.
