Help with installation of Illustrator (CS3 on Windows Vista)

I downloaded Illustrator onto my laptop, but when I go and try and nstall it, it gives a message saying: installation cannot continue until the following applications are closed: internet explorer.
Please close the applications listed above and click 'try again' to continue the installation.
The thing is that I do close IE!! I've tried re-starting, pressing CTRL + ALT + DEL, but nothing works! I am seriously desperate. What is the problem and how do I go about fixing it? I need Illustrator installed.

I do not know your exact problem and I do not know if this is going to do the job but for what it is worth. Uninstall IE restart your computer then install AI. Then reinstall IE.
As I say I do not know if this would work but it might be worth a try.

Help with Drivers for HP dv8315nr for Windows Vista 64bit

Hi everyone! In 2007 i bought a laptop a HP Pavilion dv8315nr with the hope that the stickers in his keyboard saying "Vista Compatible" was true and the promise of that the AMD Turion processor can handle a 64bit OS. Today i realize that was not entirely true, because i got the Windows Vista ultimate for 64bits and the processor can handle this OS but i see that in the HP site don't provide any support for the drivers, so i get the problem that i don't have audio in my laptop and the modem adapter doesn't work either.
My question is can anybody help me with the audio driver for the HPdv8315nr for windows vista 64bit, that's my priority.
I appreciate the attention for this manner. Thank you
Jorge

I have the same problem with my Photosmart 7350's--I have two. I cannot get either to work with the New Mac Pro driver--Gutenprint .... I got the new drivers from Apple for HP but they fixed nothing. I even downloaded the newer drivers from HP, but their Printer Assistant does not seem to be working. I downloaded it twice. I can get a test page to print a few lines but the rest of the page is blank. When I try to print with either Pages or Word I get either nothing or trash.
My computer is the New Mac Pro 2.8 8-core with OS X 10.5.4.
These printers work with my Windows machine and I have read where they work with the Mac OS X. Can someone help. The link for printing trouble shooting did not help. My guess is the driver but I cannot get one do show up even after the HP download.
thank dr_lynch

Need help with installation

I recently received a laptop from school to access my online classes. When I tried to use Adobe Reader I received the following message: Adobe Reader 9.1 has encountered a problem and needs to close. Sorry for the inconvenience. I tried tech support at school and was told to uninstall and reinstall the program. During the installation process I received the following error: Error 1321 The installer has insufficient privileges to modify the file C:/Program Files/Adobe/Reader 9.0/Reader/Onix32dll. I need this program for school. Can some one please help me.

Hello again, Michael,
Was unable to do the UAC changes. Buttons where not highlighted. I just went ahead and uninstalled Adobe and downloaded Foxitsoftware and it works. Thanks for all your help Michael you have made my online school experience better.
Sincerely,

Subject: Need help with installation
Hello again, Sherri:
It's my pleasure to provide assistance when I can :•) Having just recently graduated after 7 years of effort just to get a 2-year degree, I can relate to needing software to get class work accomplished. I will do everything I can to make it happen for you today.
Since you didn't mention, the UAC setting, I'd like you to disable it for me if it isn't already:
1. Open Control Panel
2. Under User Account and Family settings, click on the "Add or remove user account"
3. Click on any user account
4. Under the user account click on the "Go to the main User Account page" link.
5. Under "Make changes to your user account", click on the "Change security settings" link
6. In the "Turn on User Account Control (UAC) to make your computer more secure" click to unselect the "Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer". Click on the Ok button.
7. You will be prompted to reboot your computer - do so when ready
You may need to uninstall/reinstall Reader after the reboot in order for the problem to go away, but that part I am not certain of. Try to duplicate the issue prior to taking that step.
If you are unable to resolve issues with Adobe Reader, I recommend using a different reader that has much less bloat and is updated regularly:
http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/
FoxIT is a FREE alternative to using Adobe's Reader. Support for free Adobe products is limited forums such as this. The same holds true for open source alternatives except the manufacturer usually helps support their forums while Adobe doesn't monitor this forum or any like it. I know how important it is for you to focus on your classes so don't beat your head against a wall just because Reader won't work when a viable solution exists.
Best of success in your pursuit of knowledge!

Help With installation of OEM

Hello.
I need help with installation of enterpise Manager in Oracle 10.2.0.
I want to know how to install OEM and how to create OEM service
because I want to install creates a new database and I can not connect to the one I have created.
I need to install the OEM for a database that already exists
Thank you for your help

Help is not possible without a four digit database version.
Also what kind of help do you require? You can't read documentation?
In that case: This forum is not the place to behave like a 2 year old and to ask your mummy to hold your hand.
The procedure is documented, please read it, and don't ask doc questions.
If you love bothering a forum of volunteers and turn it into a free documentation lookup service, at least provide a four digit database version.

I am trying to run my forms 10g rel2 with these browsers. But on netscape it says Java is not enabled, even though I have enabled Java. And it shows me a grey page. On firefox 2, it says 'click here to download plugin'. After you click on it, it says 'No suitable plugins were found', 'Unknown plugin(application x/jinit-applet; version 1.3.1.22) and a text box is beside it labelled 'Manual Install'. When you click on this manual install button, it takes me to this page :

Installation of ODTwithODAC1110621 fails on Windows Vista

In order to get a Oracle OLE DB provider for .Net, I installed downloaded ODTwithODAC1110621.zip from the Oracle.com website. It installs fine on Windows XP, but when I try an install in Vista, it ends just a minute after the start with a message box entitled Java Virtual Machine launcher
"Cannot find main class. The program will now exit".
(This is at the point of preparing the installation - it shows a command prompt (DOS) window and says wait ...., then it says cannot find xxx something or other and gives the above message).
The Oracle database 11g is supposed to run on Vista, even 10g does, and the above data provider should run on Vista too.
I do need to install it on Vista. Any help appreciated.

It's not just a Vista thing. I frequently encounter the problem in both Windows XP and Vista with CS3 versions of Illustrator, InDesign, and Acrobat files.
I've heard no report yet as to whether this is fixed in CS4.

When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an erro

When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Internal Error 2739" I have used the cleanup script included in Adobe Photoshop CS3 installer, and have removed all traces of Adobe apps including the beta versions and Acrobat 8 pro, and I still get the same error, how can I install this application? is there any way or do I have to reformat and reinstall windows?

Hello everyone,
I was having the same issue:
"Setup Error. Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Quit."
If you receive this error also, press Quit and follow these steps:
1. Start
2. Control Panel
3. Administrative tools (in classical view)
4. Event Viewer
5. Application
You will see something like this:
Double-Click for error (emphasized by red color). I have an error like this:
"Error 1327.Invalid Drive: E:\" if you have the same or e.g. Drive F:\ ir whatever letter, you should solve this problem extremely easy - just insert USB-flash into computer (it will launch as E\ or whatever disk) and than run installation again. It will work than.
Setup doesnt start if disk is offline.

Mac OS X Leopard installation disc after I install Windows Vista

Hi everyone! Do I need to put my Mac OS X Leopard installation disc after I install Windows Vista? I try to run the windows without install Mac-specific driver for windows but it restarted and back to Mac OS. The frustrated thing is I did not bring my Mac OS with me. Anyone has any solution? Or how can i request a installation disk from Apple? Thank you!

Yes you will need to install the apple drivers for win vista. When you boot from a cold start, have you tried holding down the option key to choose which OS to boot from? If you have then, you could try going into startup options from the mac side and choose win vista if it appears. That could be risky though, as you mentioned you do not have the mac install disk. If problems arise you may need the mac install disk to undo the changes.

"iTunes 7.6 or later is supported with any 64-bit edition of Windows Vista.

"iTunes 7.6 or later is supported with any 64-bit edition of Windows Vista. The installer for 64-bit Vista is named iTunes64Setup.exe instead of iTunesSetup.exe. For more information see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301301"
So now you iPod Shuffles will work! No more returning them to Apple!

I can now setup iTunes on my 64 bit Windows Vista. I've also brought over my library via the home network from my old Windows XP computer (although I needed to use Add folder to Library as the songs were not automatically recognised in the library). However, I can't get the i-Pod to load. At first I got a message saying that I needed to download a driver and now there is no recognition of the iPod at all when I connect. Is there anything I can do?

Illustrator 10 and Window Vista

Hi!
I installed Illustrator 10 on window vista and it does not work.
The message that I get is "Illustrator has stopped working".
I tried to go to Right-click on the Illustrator.exe file, choose properties, click the compatibility tab, and then select...
Disable Visual Themes
Disable Desktop Composition
Disable display scaling on high DPI machines
However, it did not solve the problem.
is anyone having the same thing and have any solution for it?
Thanks in advance!!!

I am using Vista 64 bit and attempting to open Illustrator 9.0. I also experienced the same problem where Illustrator would attempt to open, but then I would receive a message saying that it stopped working. My solution was to follow the instructions provided by Harron to right click on the Illustrator executable file and go to Properties and then select certain settings on the Compatibility tab (Disable Visual Themes, Disable Desktop Composition, and Disable Display Scaling on High DPI Settings)....
BUT I had to make one more change in order to get the program to open properly: Check the box where it says Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP (Service Pack 2). Voila! It worked. I think this may also work for Illustrator 10. At least you can give it a try if you still aren't able to open the older Illustrator application. I tried everything and this was the only resolution that got it to finally work for me.

Having trouble with iCloud Photo Stream on a Windows Vista 64 machine.

Having trouble with iCloud Photo Stream on a Windows Vista 64 machine. Can you tell me why Photo Stream will not stay enabled. When I reboot, it will disable not to mention that it will not get any pushed photos. Is there a 64 bit version?

Hello tw_mama,
I was looking into the issue you are experiencing and found an article that may shed some light on the subject. It's called iCloud: Account troubleshooting found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3988
This section in particluar:
I get an "Unsupported Apple ID" error when I try to sign in to iCloud from my iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
Depending on how you created your Apple ID, you may not be able to create an iCloud account with your current Apple ID. If your Apple ID works in the iTunes Store, App Store, Game Center, FaceTime, or with other Apple Services, your Apple ID should work for iCloud. Also, if you created your Apple ID while you applied for a job at jobs.apple.com, your Apple ID should work for iCloud. If you cannot use your Apple ID with any Apple Services, it might not be compatible with iCloud. Contact iCloud Support for assistance.
All the best,
Sterling

Trying to install Illustrator CS3 on Windows 8.1 and get error message-installer database is corrupt

When I try to install Illustrator CS3 on a windows 8.1 machine and get the following error message. " Installer database is corrupt". Have tried rebooting computer etc. and still the same problem, any suggestions?

BrianDany I am sorry you are facing difficulties installing Creative Suite 3 under Windows 8.1. Windows 8.1 was not available during the time period which Creative Suite 3 was developed and the last updates released.
I would recommend reviewing your PDApp.log and possibly AMT3lib.log file for error messages which are preventing the installation. You can find details on how to locate and interpret the log files at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4. You are welcome to post any specific error messages which you discover to this discussion.

Problems with saving in Illustrator CS3 - Windows

I'm using Illustrator CS3, Windows XP. Even the smallest files take a very long time to save. I try to save and it initally appears as if nothing is happening. If I click again, a portion of my screen goes white and the hour glass sits for what feels like forever while "Not responding" appears next to Illustrator in the bar. Eventually it finishes. Have run into the same problem with PhotoShop a couple times as well. Seems to have started after my upgrade to CS3. Can anyone help?

"it initally appears as if nothing is happening" - no-no, disk indicator should be bright and nearly no-blinking!
Solutions are (depending on the problem severity):
1. Make more layers (even for the same kind of objects, especially for texts)
2. Use RAID 5 disks for scratch files (VelocyRaptor is the best choice)
3. Use i-RAM for scratch files (if the project not too big)
4. Use RIndMA disk (http://hardwareforall.com/ww/serverRAMdisk.html) for scratch files
