Flash Catalyst installs, but does not launch...

Downloaded and installed Flash Catalyst Beta 2 for Mac, but it fails to launch. I get the splash page logo, the OS X says that it's not responding. I've tried uninstalling, re-installing, restarting. Help?
Running:
MacBook Pro Intel Core Duo 2.0 GHz
Mac OS X 10.6.1
2 GB RAM

Hey,
So this issue definitely came up on the forum during beta 1, but I don't think I've seen it yet for beta 2.
There a couple of threads here on the issue, this is one of them: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2008001#2008001
Hopefully something in here helps? If not please let me know.
As Adam mentioned, the office is closed this week but I can definitely point out the issue to the installer team on Monday.
Thanks,
Tara

Flash Player installs but does not work in Firefox

I have installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled latest Flash Player. It says installing is complete but I cannot view any of the videos that require it. I get the msg that I need to install latest version.

There's two different versions of Flash, ActiveX for IE and the Plugin version for other browsers.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

My adobe captivate6 installs but does not run on my windows7 dell inspiron

my adobe captivate6 installs but does not run on my windows7 dell inspiron with 4gb ram and 500gb hdsk, i downloaded the trial first 32bit and it installed fine and didnt run. so i thought that a full version with a 64bit installation will do the trick, but after that the captivate 6 did not still work on my system. i also tried it on an acer with duo core and the captivate software installed and did not still work. it only shows the captivate flash screen.
a friend installed his on an acer laptop 64bit, i3processor, and it works fine. please i will be glad if i can be helped on how to correct this
thanks

Have you tried right clicking on the Cp icon and selecting Run as Administrator? This is something you MUST do in Win7 but was not necessary on Xp.

Creative Cloud Creative Cloud Photoshop installs but will not launch

Hi, my Creative Cloud Photoshop latest version installs but will not launch. When I try it opens a page with a long error code report. I uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop several times with the same result. I downloaded and tried the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, as I found as a solution in the help forum, but since I uninstalled Photoshop before I ran the Cleaner Tool there are installed applications, and AdobeCreativeCloudDriver. Should I hit the clean all CS6 button at the bottom of the window. There is nothing including Photoshop in this list.

You will have to provide system info and the exact errors. Nobody can help based on vague "This doesn't work" posts.

Application bounces in dock but does not launch

When I double-click on a FileMaker file, it used to automatically launch FileMaker Pro 8 Advanced until about a week ago. Now, when I double-click on a FileMaker file, the applcation icon bounces for a fraction of a second in the Dock but does not launch.
If I drag the file to the application, then FileMaker launches.
Other applications are not exhibiting this odd behavior.
How can I fixt it?
G5 Tower Mac OS X (10.4.2)

remove (drag out) the filemaker icon from the dock, open finder and locate the filemaker application and drag it back to dock.
If this does not help, the console messages mentioned before might help us more.

Premier Elements 11 installed but does not launch

I installed premier elements 11, the installation did not have any problems, but when I click on the icon nothing happens. It does not give an error message, is does not try to do anything, it simply does not launch. I uninstall, turn off the norton software, did a clean boot to prevent other services to load, re-installed the software and the problem continues.
I have window 7 64 bits 8 gb memory, more than enough disk space. What else can be wrong that is preventing the application from launching?

Hi,
Could you please try the following solutions and see if any of these work:
1. Navigate to 'PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe' located inside:
 Win x64: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
 Win x32: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 13
 Right click on 'PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe' and select 'Run as Admin'
2. Just after this keep on pressing 'Ctrl+Alt+Shift' on Windows (or Command+Option+Shift on Mac). You will get a popup asking to delete Elements settings file. Click Yes.
If the above does not work, please try the following:
3. Please rename SLCache folder present at location "<root drive:>\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\SLCache"
Also please rename opm.db on your machine to resolve this issue @ <root drive>\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Now re-launch the application.
4. In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
5. Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
If none of these work, please let me know.

My MacBook pro turns on, shows my background, but does not launch finder. Help please.

When I turn on my MacBook Pro (2006, 15"), the background image shows up, but the finder does not launch. After about 10 minutes, my task bar will appear on the bottom of the screen, but the finder bar does not appear. The spinning wheel appears and will not go away. I have attempted rebooting a few times, and each time the result is the same.
Suggestions?

The folder with a question marks is usually an idication that the Mac can't find the system file to boot from.
Since you never told us which system your Mac was running there is nothing more to say.

Adobe flash player downloads but does not work

Hi,
When I download the flash player is says to click on active x and I do and allow and then it downloads and says complete but does not work when I try to watch you tube videos. It says download flash player which I have already done. Please help.

I can see the description box at the top but there is another white box with an x in the corner in about the middle of the screen
You should see a flash animation if the Flash player was installed properly. That you aren't seeing it means that it hasn't been.
Adobe has a link to a troubleshooting page:

FLASH PLAYER INSTALLS BUT WILL NOT RUN

I have installed Flash Player multiple times. The installation indicates it was successful, the Control Panel and list of programs installed indicate that the program is present but when I run a web site that requires it, I get a message that I need to install it. The Adobe Flash Player Help does not indicate that it is installed.
Running Windows 7 Home Premium , 32 bit; service pack 1; IE 9.0.8112 The computer is a Dell Laptop with Intel (R) core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5800 @ 2.0 GHz 2.00 GHz with 3.00GB RAM. Tech specs say 2.33 GHz is required. Is this the problem? Are there earlier versions of Flash Point that will work?

I went to the discussion you referenced and did the following ;
Under Internet Options, I disabled Protective Mode and restarted the computer. Flash Player did not work. I then removed Flash Player using Windows uninstall via the Control Panel. I reloaded Flash Player with Protective mode still off. After Flash Player successfully loaded, I turned Protective mode back on ( I didn’t want to run in unprotected mode) I restarted the computer and Flash Player worked and has been ever since. Thank you.

It was a beautiful answer but it didnt work for my IE 11 with windows 7 on my desktop HP Pavilion d4650e.

This was when I was having problems running something in shutterfly. Then a week later I was trying to use a usage program from my electric company and no go. BUT, I was able to use Chrome and get flash player to work. ?????????????
It's NOT a program. It's a "plug-in" for your browser. In essence, a "piece" of another program.
If you want to find it, go to C/Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash and C/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed/Flash.
You'll see the plug-in files there. There is a "standalone" Flash Player (Flash Player 12 Projector) which IS a program, but unless you specifically and manually add it to your start menu, it won't appear there either.
Your problems with IE11 are just that; problems with IE11.
Specifically, "User-Agent Strings"
That may or may not mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess they've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Flash Player 11 Shows sucessful installation, but does not work

I have installed FLASH PLAYER 11 on a VISTA system using IE9.
I get a sucessfull installation when it is finished installing. But I can not view any Videos. I get the message that need to install the FLASH PLAYER to view the video.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the version as well as the 10.1 version with no sucess.
When I look at the CONTROL PANEL I see the FLASH PLAYER symbol. But when I goto the Programs and Features to uninstall it I do not see anything in the SIZE box
I also do not see the FLASH PLAYER 11 in any of the All Programs folders.
I tried to follow all of the online trouble shooting procedures to no avail.

some people are having issues with the adobe download page. we ask that you download the uninstaller and installer directly from the links from this page: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3952360
run the uninstaller
restart your machine

if you have a 64-bit system, you will only need to download the 64-bit installer. it will install 32-bit binaries also...

Firefox update installs, but does not apprearon screen, or task manger yet is running what is going on and how does one fix it?

I installed the update Mozilla Firefox 28. It was suppose to launch upon completion. it did not appear on the monitor screen, nor the task manager, but was running; for when I attempted to install the older version again it, it said that Firefox was running and needed to be turned off.
I restarted the computer and tried opening Firefox, with the same results.
After restarting again, I attempted to reinstall the update, with the same results taking place.
I attempted to uninstall Firefox and install the new version. The same results took place.
In the past, I could install Firefox 27 update, only now I can't for the same thing takes place. Past a certain version (19), this event takes place, but 19 and older can install it with no problems.
I checked Firefox troubleshooting information. All was normal. I checked my firewall. Again, all was normal. Tried Firefox reset. Did not help. Tried with my firewall disabled. Did not solve the problem.
Ran a virus check (deep) no viruses. Checked my computer system. No errors.
I can install updates for my other programs, even install new programs; just not Firefox.
What is going on and how does one fix it.

Hi Amseeking,
Thank you for your question. From your description, you tried to install the 28 update from a version 19 installation. Did you install a fresh install of 28 successfully? Where the name of the file is"Firefox Setup Stub 28.exe"? This is what is sound like happened. When going to about Firefox and searching for updates it installs over the current installation. However if Firefox was already running, there are more than one installation.
Updating from version 19 to 28 would not be a problem. However the user data from your previous version would have to be imported to the new installation if you have more than one install on that computer.
An easy way to tell is to search for Firefox in the Start menu to see if more than one icon shows up in the search results.
I hope this helps.

Setup Project installs but does not become active

Hello all,
My task for my work was to transfer over a macro that I made that would process and delete incoming emails to a specified mailbox in Outlook into a Visual Studio project. This is required because we want to be able to give out the code to clients, which
is quite cumbersome with a macro. I want to be able to use Visual Studio's Setup and Deployment to create an installer for the Add In.
I have spent hours trying to figure out how to get the installer to work. From everything that I have read and all of the youtube videos that I've watched, I just cannot for the life of me figure out what I'm missing.
My problem is that when I build the setup project and move it over to a machine I want to install it on, it installs just fine. I even check the windows event logs and it displays no errors, stating the installation was successful. The files are even placed
where I wanted them to be. But when I open Outlook expecting the add in to run, it's not there. Not under active, disabled, or otherwise. When I debug the project, it runs just fine and Outlook has the add in as active. Thus, I even tried moving over the literal
vsto file with the installer (because that was the file location shown in Outlook during debug), and still the installer runs successfully but it doesn't affect Outlook. When I double click the vsto file though, poof, Outlook has the add in. But that doesn't
appear to be the setup doing anything, I'm just installing the add in from the VSTO directly, I believe.
Apparently I cannot add images to the body text, which might have made this easier.
I'm creating my project (Outlook add in) and copying my macro code over. When I debug the project, it's shown as an active add in and works fine. I then add the setup and deployment project (Visual Studio Installer -> Setup Project). From the videos that
I've watched, I haven't noticed anyone do anything more than add the Primary Output and then alter the Deployment Project Properties (company name and etc.).
As I said previously, running the debug does just fine at causing the add in to be active and seen by Outlook, but no such similar thing appears when I run the setup installer on the other machine. Nor when I run the installer on the same machine as I was
running the debug.
I'm at a complete loss as to what I need to do to fix this and would appreciate any help you can give me.

Hi Brady Schwandt,
>>I want to be able to use Visual Studio's Setup and Deployment to create an installer for the Add In.
Which VS version did you use? So you use the InstallShield LE, am I right?
I found some blogs which shared some information about it here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/emeamsgdev/archive/2013/11/21/outlook-deploying-an-outlook-2013-add-in-using-installshield-le.aspx
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mcsuksoldev/archive/2010/10/01/building-and-deploying-an-outlook-2010-add-in-part-1-of-2.aspx
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mcsuksoldev/archive/2010/10/01/building-and-deploying-an-outlook-2010-add-in-part-2-of-2.aspx
As you said that the project has no any issue, so the real issue is related to "how to create the setup project with InstallShield LE for outlook add-in".
You know that actually we didn't support the InstallShield LE, it has his own third party supported site now, if above blogs no help, I suggest you post this issue to this site:
