I am receiving an installation failed message

I just purchased adobe creative cloud, and when I try to install certain apps they came up with an "installation failed" message.
When I click the learn more, it prompts me to another window. If I click, windows photo viewer can not open the file type. I'm sure there is a simple solution, please help.

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system information and installation logs. And well, if the files even attempt to open in Photo Viewer, you have other problems than your CC install to boot...

I am installing on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.6.8.
What now?

This is how we resolved it. Used a 32GB Flash Drive formatted the drive HFS+ and then copied the PKG folder and files and then brought them to the target Mac and copied the files over and ran the PKG and Exceptions install. Everything seems to be installing fine now.

On installing Photoshop CC, I received an Installation Failed message (see below). What do I do now?

After downloading and installing Photoshop CC for the first time on a 64-bit Windows 7.1 PC with 8GB of RAM, I received the message: "Installation Failed.Installation completed though some optional components failed to install correctly (6)." What do I do now? Photoshop 6 and Lightroom 5 are previously installed on this PC and I have been a PS user since PS7.

Bonsinger the next step would be to review your installation log files for the exact errors which you received. Please see Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html for information on how to locate and interpret your installation log files. You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

"The installation failed" message

Every time I try to install my lightroom 2, from my disc, on my mac it gives me "The installation failed" message. So how can I go around this? Where can I go to get it installled?

It probably won't work at all. LR 2 contains PPC code which Apple long has stopped supporting in newer versions of OSX. Unless you really mean an old Mac ca. 2003 with OSX 10.4 or before, I see no way of ever getting this to work. Seriously consider buying LR 4 then.

Hi there HotFerrari,
It sounds like you are unable to restore your device from a backup you have in iTunes. I recommend the troubleshooting from the article named:

I am receiving an installation error message when I try to download a Photoshop Add-on. How can I download this file?

I am trying to download an add-on for Photoshop and have received an error message that the installation failed, file operation error. Is there any other way to download this or can the file be corrected so this can be downloaded?

What is the add-on called? We may be able to send it to you by email if you could please supply your email address to [email protected] The error is unlikely to be due to the add-on itself.

Photoshop Installation Failed message

I've tried installing Adobe Photoshop CS6 twice from the Application Manager and constantly receives: "Installation Failed" Unable to extract files. Press Retry to download again or contact suctomer support (EX20). I'm using a PC 32bit computer. Can someone please tell me what may be wrong?
Thanks!

Problem resolved for Photoshop CS6! I downloaded the file directly from website instead of my desktop Applications Manager. However, it did ask me how I wanted to open the file and I indicated the Applications Manager. Photoshop CS6 is now up and running!

Installer fails: message invalid drive

Hi Everybody,
I have a strange behaviour during XE installation. On one PC (Win2000 SVP4) which has an unformatted partition and no drive D: the installer fails with the message: Invalid drive D: When assigning the CDROM drive to drive D: the installation works.
Has somebody run into the same problem or any ideas?

Hi Konstantin,
the problem is that we have to install XE on many different PC's, which all have individual setups and configurations. Not speeking of different OS and different language versions. But as Oracle claims to be compatible to alomst anything we are doing it.
So we run into one problem after the other as you can see.

Update 9.5.5 installation failed with no error message other than it failed

Now my Acrobat is crashing everytime I open a pdf with Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error. The error message says: Program: C...
That's all, just "Program: C..."
That's all I have to go on. tried to repair, received same Installation Failed.
Is there a way I can remove just the 9.5.5 update?
Thanks,
Jeffery

Hi Jeffery_01,
Can you please follow the steps mentioned: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-c-runtime-errors-products.html
If this doesn't work, you can try these steps
Update Acrobat to its latest patch of 10.1.7 and Reader to 9.5.5 and then test the issue.
Navigate to where Acrobat or Adobe Reader is installed, usually C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\plug_ins or C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\plug_ins rename the Updater.api plug-in to Updater.api.old relaunch Acrobat or Reader and then test the issue.
Provide full permission to the Application Data folder and then test the issue. You can navigate to C:\Users\[USERNAME]\ location to get the AppData folder.
On Windows 7 and Vista platforms, verify the LocalLow directory exists at C:\Users\<user>\AppData with Read and Write permissions.

"Installation Failed" the first time going in an application

I have an installer which installs a necessary version of the JRE, then calls installSucceeded(false) at the end. Everything seems to work as far as installing the JRE; however, I get an "Installation Failed" message after the JRE installs. The next time I launch my application it works just fine. Any idea of whats going on here? Any help would be appreciated.

To help some, it appears that the installer is as two separator instances at the same time.

Very annoying connection failed message

Hello.
This question was actually asked by another member and it was never answered. I keep receiving a connection failed message after startup. This message is the one where it states; "Connection failed. Server may not exist or is not operational at this time. Check server name or IP address & try again." Just like the previous member who asked, I too am not trying to connect to anything so why do I keep getting this message? I read somewhere on here about deleting aliases but that was a suggestion for OS9 users.
Could someone please share with me on how to get rid of message? I tried the suggestion that was offered prior about going to GO in the finder and selecting connect to server but when I do this, there is nothing there to connect to nor delete so this suggestion does not work.
All of this started when I connected my two Intel Macbook Pros via ethernet a few days ago. I have decided not to network the two machines so I have disconnected them. The main machine which was machine 1 is the one giving me the annoying connection failed message while machine 2 does not. Does it have something to do with the server alias? If I am the only user of these computers, why are my server privileges insufficient? Why can't I just delete the server alias? Why is removing this annoying connection failed message so difficult?
Please help. Thank you
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Not sure on this, but perhaps the user of the other book left the Alias there?
You can easily change Permissions on that Alias to get rid of it, perhaps by doing a Get info, or surer yet using batchmod...
