Fireworks CS4 Trial Will Not Install

I have just downloaded both the .exe and .7z file for the Fireworks CS4 trial. I downloaded the files using Firefox 3.5 on Windows XP. When I hit launch in Akamai, nothing happens. If I double click the .exe file in Windows Explorer, the command propmt opens and then quickly shuts and nothing else happens. I have 7-zip and Winzip and neither can extract the files from the .7z.
I'm not 100% certain I have administrator rights on this computer, but I routinely install and update software and it has never been a problem in the past.
Any help?

If you cannot extract the files, maybe the download did not went well, and file was only partially downloaded? Maybe you shoud try to download it again?
You also must have administrator rights to install software on your machine, no matter if you use XP or Vista/7.

    Q. Contribute  6.5 trial will not install, Mac 10.6.8 ASAdvisor indicates no issues

    Hi Dominic,
    My problem is essentially as stated.
    I down loaded a trial copy of Contribute 6.5 to my Mac which has 10.5.8
    As this will not support Contribute 6.5 I transferred to download, to 
    my laptop which has 10.6
    It would not install. I wass advised to download Adobe Advisor, which 
    I did and it reported "no issues"
    How should I proceed?
    Thanks

    Scrappy1 what do you mean exactly by doing a scan?
    Under Windows 7 you will want to use the Programs and Features Control Panel to remove your installation.  I would recommend verifying that Photoshop Lightroom is removed from the list of installed applications.

  • CS4 Trial will not open

    I have downloaded the InDesign CS4 trial from the Adobe website, and installed with no problem.
    However it will not open. When I click the application I get the following error message:
    'You can't open the application "Adobe InDesign CS4.app" because it is not supported on this architecture.'
    I've checked the system requirements and sure I have what's needed.
    I'm running OS 10.5.6 on a dual 2GHz Power PC G5 with 1.5Gb memory.
    Any idea what's wrong?

    In the application folder there is a folder 'Adobe InDesign CS4' within which there is just the application file. I would expect there should be more file there??
    I've un-installed and installed again - still the same.
    Even downloaded the dmg again and done thwe whole thing over again.

  • Photoshop CS4 Trial Will not start. Error message will pop up saying ...

    "Some of the application components are missing from the Application directory, Please reinstall the application."
    -CS4 Photoshop
    -Vista Home Premium
    -HP
    I've been at this for days, I've uninstalled, reinstalled, clean scripted, everything i could think of. I have no luck with anything! What is strange is that Bridge will still work, but just Photoshop alone won't.
    If anyone could help .. in anyway at all, it would be greatly appreciated!

    Bridge is not tied to any restrictions in terms of activation or requiring specific components to be in place, hence it almost always works. Do you correctly run the install with administrative privileges?

  • Adobe Premiere Trial will not install - Failed to Initialize error

    When attempting to install the downloaded trial the following message occurs: "We've encountered the following issues:
    Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem." Running Support Advisor finds no issues.
    I am running Windows 7.
    Help!
    Thanks!

    If the installer is failing to initialize then you will want to review the PDApp.log file.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret this log file at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • Acrobat XI trial will not install

    I've tried this process over a half-a-dozen times now and each time the Adobe AIR Installer hangs with a blank window.
    Upon investigating the system.log file, I find the following:

    and when I try and quit the AIR Installer after 5 minutes of non-response, I see:

    IT would appear that the AIR Installer has some significant problems.
    Perhaps someone can advise me of a workaround?
    Thus far, I am not happy I am looking for other professional PDF products that might actually work

    Hey simong,
    Could you please tell me from where have you tried downloading the trial version.
    You might try downloading Acrobat XI from the following link:
