Extension Manager freezes during installation

I am trying to install Extension Manager, but it keeps hanging at 61%.  The current try has been stuck at 61% for about the last 45 minutes.  When I try cancelling the installation, then the cancellation process seems to freeze instead.
I have restarted my computer, but that didn't solve the problem.  I am running Windows 7 Professional.
I need Extension Manager to troubleshoot an InDesign file that just began acting strangely, so I need to get this problem solved.  Any suggestions?

Sorry it has taken me so long to respond.  I am running Windows 7.
I haven't received any feedback regarding this problem, but just today, I did more searching on the Adobe website, and found a link that allows me to install Extension Manager directly onto my computer (without going through the Creative Cloud updater).  The link is here:  Adobe - Exchange : Download the Adobe Extension Manager
I am hoping that once the program has been installed correctly on my system, then I will be able to use the Creative Cloud updater to keep the version up to date.  I am in the middle of the installation process--I will update this message to let you know whether or not it worked once I know.
ETA:  I have now been trying to install the Stand-alone Extension Manager for about 3 hours, and it seems to be stuck at the "Currently Installing Microsoft Visual C++2005 Redistributable Package (X86)".  I even tried installing MS Visual C++ separately and then trying to install Extension Manager, and no luck.  Will keep you up to date with my progress.

  • Installing Leopard freezes during installation..

    hi.
    im updating my old tiger powermac to leopard and its freezing during installation..
    i cant take the disc out and try the original discs as it seems like it needs the disc to boot from.
    ive held down the space bar but it doesnt eject.
    any ideas?
    thanks

    hi.
    i have both discs (leopard and snow leopard as retail)...
    at the moment it wont start in safe mode... it just doesnt startup and until i take my finger off shift it wont go anywhere other than the white apple screen.
    i have tried dragging the install disc using disc utility to the macHD and erase the destination... now all it has done is create a clone of the install disc on the internal HD.
    I put my other mac in target disc mode with the snow leopard disc in and tried to use startup disc to restart from it but it didnt show up as available... so im stuck...
    i cant eject the disc, its not installing properly and my internal HD isnt bootable...
    any ideas?

  • Creative cloud extension manager freezing even after reinstall on iMac w/Mavricks

    I recently installed CC photoshop, lightroom, & bridge. I tried to instal my Tony Kuyper action panel using CC extension manager, but it sat there thinking (the little clock) for hours. (I have CS6 and my actional panel installed on CS6 using cs6 extension manager NP) I tried again with the same result so I then unistalled it using the unistaller, and then I reinstalled it, as soon as I opened it,It immediatly went right back to the little clock thinking. So there must be some residual inforamtion that was not being removed during the uninstalation process. I am on an Imac with the latests version of Mavricks as of (Nov 25 2013). Should I completely remove everything CC and start over?

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    I've attempted to repair permissions the usual way, as well as through a complete cleanup via Onyx.  Still no dice.
    Creative Cloud Desktop was working previously, for quite a few months (with the occasional "can't connect" and inability to load the App Update panel, which seems to plague the software constantly anyway...but at least it worked intermittently) well after I installed Yosemite.
    This is a more recent issue...just a few days ago...before installing the update, as well as after.

  • Acrobat 10.1.4 on mac freezes during installation

    Acrobat update downloaded and started to install on my Mac but froze during installation and will not allow me to do anything.  I can not quit out of the installation or restart my computer.  Any suggestions???

    Holding the power key on your computer should allow you to restart your computer. You can also try to force quit the installer.

  • Adobe Application Manager freezes during install

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to install the Adobe Application Manager on my Mac Book Pro with OS X 10.82. After double clicking on the AdobeApplicationManager.app the progress window appears, but after a few seconds it freezes. :-( I have to force quit the installer. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    If you have Creative Suite 5.1 installed then a version of Adobe Application Manager should be present in your Applications/Utilities folder.  Please try uninstalling Creative Suite from the Applications/Utitlies/Adobe Installers folder.  Once it is uninstalled you can safely remove the Adobe Application Manager folder and then try reinstalling again from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774.

  • Itunes 7.7.1 freezes during installation

    When i try to install Itunes 7.7.1 the installations freezes (it looks likes it's still working on it. but i've tried waiting for hours and nothing happens) as soon as i gets to the "installation" part.
    It's the same both when i use the software updater, and when i try to download the installer directly from apple.com
    i'm useing Maac OS X 10.4.11, and i don't have any old versions of itunes installed.
    Anyone got any suggestions as to what i can try?

    I have exactly the same issues with my new 80G iPOD. I have found that when connecting to my PC, the iPOD does not start iTUNES 7. This can be resolved by stopping the iPOD Service in Computer Management, connecting the iPOD and then starting it again. Then when you start iTUNES it finds the iPOD. - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716
    Seems like a stupid long-winded way to do things, but at least you can get some stuff on to your iPOD.
    As far as using Restore goes - I just get the restoring iPOD message you described, which it blatantly isn't :((

  • Freeze during installation of XP with ms-6547

    I bought a ms-6547 (MSI 645 Ultra-C) last year and tried to make it run at least once in vain!!!! The problem is that the computer freezes when loading the drivers during the installation of Win XP Pro   and I still don't understand why... I gave up after one month work on it but last week I decided to try again. Here is my config:
    -CPU: P4 1.6a fsb 400
    -Bios: 3.3
    -ram: 256 DDR 2100 Dane Elec (I have 3 modules so I tried them all they have hynix, samsung and the last one is winbond chips) tested with memtest during 48h (ok)
    -HDD: IBM 20Go 7200rpm
    -Graphic card: Geforce 2 Ti (leadteck) or Geforce 4 MX 440 (leadteck) (I tested both)
    -CD-Rom: I tried all those I had (about 5-6 different cd-roms) but it doesn't change anything
    -PCI: none but i would like to add a network adapter in the far future when this jklfghnglhbndflhbn machine will work!!!!
    I tried to desactivate the onboard usb and audio but still the same!
    Can anyone tell me what to do or give me a bios setup that can make it run?
    Please help i am turning mad. I wanted to build a cheap machine and now it is a financial desaster  

    Ok, I'm having similar problems here.  Let me start off with my story.
    Got an 865PE Neo2-PFISR.  Hooked it up with an SATA HDD, 160GB.  I set the Integraged Peripherals to S-ATA mode and When I ran the XP CD, it would load the drivers and at the "Setup is starting Windows" screen, I would get a Blue error screen.
    Turns out I needed to set the Integrated Peripherals to "Native Mode" rather than "Legacy mode" and also "S-ATA".
    When I loaded windows, it set up just fine.  Got into windows and voila, no prob, was running pretty good.
    then, DUN, DUN, DUN, the 400W PSU went on me, I had to diagnose it and I want with a 500W Antec unit.
    So I wasn't too happy with the way windows was running, I decided to do a fresh install before I got back to normal.  I tried the XP CD with the correct bios settings, Loaded the drivers, got to the "Setup is starting Windows" screen and FROZE.  I jus can't get past that screen, even flashed my bios and nothing, tore the entire system down and rebuilt it, tried one stick of ram, nothing.
    Gave up with the fresh XP install, went back into the previously installed windows, and it ran fairly good.  But now, it keeps freezing in windows.  It will run fine under normal load, but as soon as I put some strain on the system (say I'm photoshoping and listening to MP3s or I'm watching a DVD, everything will freeze up and I have to restart.
    One funny thing I noticed when I restart from this freezing.  The reset button will not do.  If I reset from the freeze, It'll restart, but then I'll get stuck on the initial MSI screen.  So, everytime I freeze, I have to power down fully and restart.
    I highly doubt I have bad ram or processor or VGA, It's either the Mobo or some settings.  I contacted newegg and requested an RMA, So I'm going to start with a new board with an exchange.  I jus hate to pay for shipping now.
    Anyway, I'm using Geil Platinum DDR500 (PC4000) Dual channel Ram (1GB), this was on MSI's compatible memory List, so I don't think I'll have a problem with the ram.  I haven't attempted to overclock yet.
    Should I try other stuff (I'll have to rebuild the system again) or should I wait to receive a new board?

  • Snow Leopard 10.6.3 freezing during installation? Please help!

    I have a 13" Macbook with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and am trying to install Snow Leopard 10.6.3 (which I bought from the Apple store).  I am having trouble with the installation, as it freezes every time I get to a certain point in the "Installing" screen. It was freezing around the 40 min. mark, and so I tried the various options that the installation CD gave me. Such as going into disk utility and doing the "first aid" stuff where everything seemed to check out fine.  None of that helped, and it kept freezing at the same point, sometimes going all the way to a screen that says, "Install Failed, the installer could not copy the necessary support files."  I double checked all of the system requirements, and I originially didn't have enough memory, but freed up space for the installation.
    I then tried the last option on the installer troubleshooting by backing up my files on an external hard drive and then erasing the memory through disk utility.  Now I can't get back onto my original computer drive when selecting a startup disk, as it only lets me see the installation CD to select. Erasing didn't help, except that now it freezes at 29 minutes instead of 40. I can't even eject my CD, I'm assuming since there is nothing else for my computer to run on.  I'm not a genius with computers, but I was simply following the instructions that came with my software.  Now I can't even get back to those instructions, since they were only available on my previous hard drive, and not in the actual disk packaging (which seems kind of silly). I'm planning on calling Apple for support, hoping that I can get free support since I only bought this software a few days ago. However, any help in the meantime would be appreciated! Thanks!

  • Trying to re-install Acrobat 8, everything freezes during installation & have to reboot

    Hello. I've been having problems with my Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard software for months now. At some point, it got so dysfunctional that I was no longer able to create new PDF files, although I could still add comments and mark-up existiing PDFs. So finally, I decided to uninstall and re-install the software, hoping that this would solve the problem. Well, the uninstall went great, but then re-installing turned out to be impossible, apparently. I successfully downloaded the .exe file (all 327MB of it). But whenever I start the installation, once it get to the point where I'm asked to enter the Serial Number (and I do manually, as for some reason it doesn't allow me to paste it into the form in the dialog box), then it says that the installation of the components is starting (or something like that), and then the installation freezes, my entire computer freezes, and I have to do a forced shut-down. When I reboot, nothing has been saved of the installation procedure, and I have to start all over again. This has now happened three times, exactly the same way, and I'm getting extremely frustrated. I paid $320 for this software, so I expected it to last more than 3 years!
    Please help me to resolve this problem - as simply and as quickly as possible! Thanks.

    Hi Gautham,
    Thanks so much for your response. I have an Acer TravelMate 6292 that runs Windows Vista Business. I have to say that when I first bought and installed the Acrobat 8.0, the PDF maker crashed frequently, but over time, as updates and fixes became available, it performed much better. But then a few months ago, it stopped allowing me to create new PDFs, which is a major drawback, obviously. That's why I decided finally to uninstall and reinstall, hoping that this would solve the problem. It seems I was very wrong!
    As for other hardware or software changes, I have over time installed what most people have, probably, like my Canon and HP printers and scanners, McAfee anti-virus, iTunes, Nero, Skype, WinRAR, 'File-zilla', Open Freely, and so on. There is one weird software that got installed when I bought an external disc-drive: it's called 'ODD firmware' and I can't seem to get rid of it (it doesn't uninstall). But I don't know if that would affect the Acrobat.
    Thanks for any help you might be able to give.

  • Labview freezes during installation

    I have an enduser that I am setting up a repurprosed computer.  The computer was originally used by a summer marketing intern so there was never any NI software.  I was setting it up, and installed 8.6 by accident as the engineer then instructed me he preferred 2010 sp1.  I ran uninstall from the CLI as the GUI didnt have a way I found to uninstall it completely with one swoop.
    Yesterday it froze during the drivers disc, but now, I redid it after the uninstall and now it froze on the disc two - product 14 of 16: Currently installing Compilation Tools for Virtex-II FPGA Devices.  It has been sititng like this for the past hour. 
    The end user does have Xilinx Webpack previously installed, v.14. 
    Office 2007.
    Lotus Notes 8.5.3
    Firefox
    Windows 7 x64
    I am using the Labview 2010 SP1 Platform DVD set
    Any advice is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks and regards

    Exactly what happens when it "freezes"? Or, how do you know it freezes?
    If the rest of the code takes negligible time to execute, the 250 ms Wait in the last frame of the innermost sequence structrure will require >182 seconds to complete the nested for loops.  There are no indicators in those loops, so it would not be obvious whether the program was still running normally or not during those 3 minutes.
    Try putting indicators on the "i" terminals of the for loops. That will tell you whether the loops are executing, and when it freezez, you will be able to see how many iterations have completed.  Also put error indicators inside the loop so that you can see if any errors are reported. Unfortunately the Velmex driver does not report errors.
    Highlight Execution is useful for finding problems in code. But if the freeze occurs after several hundred iterations of the inner loop, you will grow old waiting to see what happens. A combination of Breakpoints and Highlight Execution is more versatile for troubleshooting loops.
    Sequence structures are almost never the appropriate choice for well written LabVIEW code. I would probably create several subVIs wrapping around the Velmex driver, with each subVI perfoming one task. Include error in and error out terminals (even if the Velmex driver does not return errors for most tasks) so that you can use dataflow for controlling the order of execution.

  • Photoshop Elements 13 Sign In Freezes during installation start up

    Hi,
    I'm having issues with the installation on PC - during the setup you are asked to sign in using an adobe ID, which I have done (and obviously by posting to this forum, have confirmed the profile is active and without issue!) However once done, the login box 'greys out' and the 'in progress' boxes show up in the middle of the screen (the 4 boxes, one blue and 3 grey, which go round and round and round...................). It seems to me like an issue with the account or something software related on my PC, however I have confirmed I have the necessary hardware/software requirements as per the manual, so i'm officially stumped.............
    Any help gratefully received.
    Cheers
    Mark

    Hi richard,
    Please go through the article Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CS5.5 and later and check if this helps.
    Do let me know if you need any other assistance.

  • Flash Player Installer 10.1 freeze during installation at 95% (mac OS 10.6.4)

    When i try to install flash player 10.1 on my macbook pro (Intelcore2duo, mac os 10.6.4, Safari 5.0.1), installer freeze at 95%.
    Impossible to install it.
    Any idea ?
    Thank's.
    David

    Thanks for getting back. Yes, as I mentioned, I did uninstall all other Flash Players and restarted because I had read about that tip. I also tried downloading it from the .pkg and no luck there. Also from Safari instead of from Firefox. Is this Flash Player 10.3.183.7 a stand-alone plug in or is it an update to one I should already have? Also, what is the Flash Player Debugger for. I am a mac OS 10.6.8, intel based. Any other suggestions are appreciated.

  • ITunes 10.5 freezes during installation

    We had trouble with iTunes locking up after upgrading to 10.3.  I uninstalled 10.3 according to the directions on the Apple website and tried installing 10.5.  During 10.5 installation the install program stops.  The blue bar stops going across about 3/4 of the way.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Repair youe Apple Software Update.
    Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install.
    If you don't find ASU in All Programs, go to Control Panel, Add & Remove Programs.
