File missing... Please reinstall...

My Photoshop CS4 started giving me this error message after a system reinstall (OSX 10.4.11):
"One or more files in the Adobe Application Supprt folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing. Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop."
I try to reinstall from disk #1 of the Creative Suite 4, Design Premium set of CDs.
I double-click on the "Setup.app" icon and nothing happens.
Wait 5 minutes - still nothing happens!
I purchased this software from Adobe and registered it.
Why won't it work???
There are posts all over the internet about this 'reinstall' problem but I haven't seen posts about the software failing to reinstall.
Please help.

Found a way ....
But to tell the full story:  you're right in assuming that tipping on Get Media/"Get Photos from: - Digital Still Camera, Phones or Removal Disc" gives the PhotoDownloader eror-message.  And it seems impossible to get rid of it.
And it is possible to get photos from Elements Organizer (which I do not use very often).
The files are JPEG's stored in an extern drive and WAWs from the C-drive (because I think you get a much better sound quality using the free program Audacity - better than the captions you can add on Elements Organizer).  Lots of space on both drives.
But the amazing thing, at least to me,  is that using File - Get media from ...  - Files and folders works . You have exactly the same choices here as you get when tipping Get Media aso. 
Well, as they say:  If it works don't fix it.  I live happily using Files etc.
Quite happy to be on trail again - and once more thank you for all your efforts.

    You should first uninstall iTunes completely.
    This is not an easy task!
    Read this article on how to remove iTunes completely

    Then download the latest version of iTunes for your Windows Version and install it.

  • "Adobe InDesign is missing required files. Please reinstall."

    Hi EveryOne !
    "Adobe InDesign is missing required files. Please reinstall. Missing files: \Program Files\Common FIles\Adobe\TypeSupport\...\CP1252.TXT" This is the message I keep receiving on CS5.5 of InDesign.
    I am running InDesign CS5.5 North American, English, with updates on my WinXP SP3 machine. Local copy, no network server. Yes, I might possibly need a newer machine, or a newer desk, or to reinstall WinXP to fix this one problem, but everything other than InDesign CS5.5 still runs great and I feel no compelling reason to make system-wide changes or upgrade until Win8 has been thoroughly tested and new hardware is released and tried and true for that OS.
    So, last year, I received the same message and reinstalling didn't work either. So, I pried everything Adobe off of my computer and reinstalled Adobe PageMaker 7.x. But now I am compelled by my co-workers to use ID, which I have grown to love. I have no desire or $ to upgrade to ID6 but must make use of the ID 5.5. I don't want to uninstall PageMaker as we still use it for legacy projects and it has been a faithful companion to me since it was called Aldus Pagemaker.
    My question: what is causing these messages and why does re-installation not help ? If there is a system problem, why is only CS5.5 affected and not my PageMaker and Quark ? I have searched the web and found only related posts (with no responses relevant to me) for users of Apple products.
    Thank you in advance for any information that you may be able to provide.

    Okay! Thanks for the tip, David. I did what you did too, and that fixed my Apple Software Update thing. I downloaded the latest update using that program and installed using the program, and everything was fixed!
    I think it was when I had a problem installing using Apple Updater that began the problems, and installing manually just added fuel to the fire. But now everything's fine! Thanks, man!

  • Windows XP i-Tunes wont open.Message comes up "i-Tunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing.Please reinstall i-Tunes. Tried reinstalling but quits midway thru installation

    I have Windows XP & until recently i-Tunes was working fine.Now when I try to open I get this message "i-Tunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall i-Tunes. So I did. Midway thru ,installation stops & same message is repeated. So I uninstalled i-Tunes, Downloaded new one,went thru installation process for the same result & same message. Have tried procedure 4 times,resulting in same result each time. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I did try to uninstall and reinstall.  It messed up my computer.  I had to "RESTORE" from the prior days backup.  This was not helpful at all.  I'm used to losing all my stuff when I connect to iTunes, that's a whole other issue, but now I'm completely banned from any updates to my phone at all.  Geeze.......

    Have tried to open my existing itunes but it states that it can not be opened due to missing files...please reinstall itunes. Repeated attempts to reinstall are to no avail....any ideas?

    I assume you are talking about iTunes on your computer, if so, you will have to remove all Apple programs associated with iTunes:
        iTunes,  QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Make sure everything that is by Apple is removed including Safari. You can sort by "Publisher", when you uninstall programs.  Make sure you have at least one other web browser (like Firefox or Internet Explorer) before removing Safari. That way you can go back to the Apple web site and redownload iTunes later.
    Reboot the computer then reinstall iTunes.  Everything should work normally.

  • My iPOD comes up with 13019 error message file missing please help!

    My iPOD Nano will not sync and comes up with an error message 13019 file missing can you pelase help?

    Try rebuilding your iTunes Library:
    (This will cause all devices to see your library as a "new" library)
    1. Open iTunes.
    2. File>LIbrary>Organize Library: Consolidate Files.
    -This process may take some time.
    3. Quit iTunes.
    4. Browse to your iTunes Folder.
    5. Drag the files to the desktop, but leave the folders in place (folders will be iTunes Media, Album Artwork, Previous iTunes Libraries)
    6. Open iTunes.
    7. File>Library>Import Playlist.
    8. Direct iTunes to import the "iTunes Library.xml" that is sitting on your desktop.
    9. Once the process is complete attempt to resync your iPod.

  • "Photoshop Elements [12] cannot start or continue because of missing files. Please reinstall."

    I uninstalled, then reinstalled the program (which was originally obtained via download, not CD), but it didn't help. Still get same error message.
    Contacted online tech support, they tried doing the same thing (under their control of the PC) but same thing happened. Instead of staying with me after that, they simply disconnected.
    What can I try next?

  • Itunes can't run because some of its required files are missing. please reinstall itunes.

    I have an old Ipod nano, with great music on it, however no pc to sync it to and I dont want to lose the music.  I downloaded itunes 10.0 (most recent) and was trying to use yamipod to get the music from it, however it says that it works best with older version of itunes. so i uninstalled new itunes, tried to install older version, had issues, uninstalled all apple programs from pc, now when i try to install older version of itunes i get the error message:
    itunes cant run because some of its required files are mising. please re-install itunes....which i tried several times and still keep getting this error message...HELP

    No, that did not work. I did a system restore on my computer, and then that's why my iTunes reverted back to version 6. Whenever I try to download the newer version, it keeps giving me this error message:
    The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
    And then I will just click 'OK.' Then this will come up:
    The path 'C:\DOCUME~1\HP_Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP705.TMP\iTunes.msi' cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.
    I just don't know what to do. Please...more feedback!!!

    Hey jrdeac,
    That sounds frustrating! Let's do a full uninstall of iTunes and all related components, then reinstall. The following article explains how to do so for your operating system:
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Note: It is important to remove all of the listed software, in order. Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended effects.
    If the issue persists after completely removing, and reinstalling, please see the following article:

    That's crazy. A serial number is not required.
    Are you certain you chose the correct version to download?
