Cs4 web premium on windows 2000 sp4

Hi all,
I had to install cs4 web premium on a win 2000 server as my development box. During installation I got "unsupported configuration - ..this software requies winxp sp2 or later. please upgrade or adjust your system to meet these minimum requirements...".
How can I adjust the system?
Regards,
Sean

Creative Suite 4 requires at least Windows XP for installation. The adjustment in this case is to do a clean install of Window XP (or later, including Windows Vista or Windows 7) and then install CS4.

Need to Download Official Adobe CS4 Web Premium

This link does't work. http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
That link sends you to Acrobat and the download app will not allow to download Web Premium CS4.
Anyone know where I can get CS4 so I can finish my project. I am in a remote location and the disks are at home.
I need to reinstall CS4 Web Premium.
I have tried the link and it will not work. I followed the instructions and another member here followed the instructions and it will not work. We are not novices to the internet or the idea of downloading a simple file or two.
Adobe does a great job at taking your money. Ask them for a download and they do mind jerks and twitch and beg for money. I paid for the software, I should be allowed to at least get it downloaded.

This link does't work. http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here. html
The link works fine. I just tried it.
That link sends you to Acrobat and the download app will not allow to download Web Premium CS4.
You don't download the software from there.
You missed Step 3 in the Instructions: Click the download button (pretending you want to download Acrobat) then immediately cancel the download box which appears.
THEN go back to prodesigntools.com and click the link to download Web Premium CS4

Will I lose my music if I uninstall and reinstall on windows

I want to be able to use icloud for backing up my music but I somehow do not have it on my windows itunes. Can I uninstall and reinstall itunes to get icloud back and is there a particular method to do this uninstalling etc.
Thanking you.

You should not rely on iCloud to backup your music. There is no guarantee that any content will be available for redownload. You should always maintain a backup copy of your computer and its content.
iCloud is not something that is installed on your computer. To retrieve available music from iCloud go to iTunes Store>Quick Links>Purchased.

Flash will not install from CS4 Web Premium on XP

I installed CS4 Web Premium a while back and, since I do not do a lot of Flash development, I didn't realize right off that Flash CS4 did not install. However, I just tried to go back and install it from the DVD and it shows in the list but the box in front of it is uncheckable. The heading at the top says to check the boxes to install or reinstall the applications. Other programs such as Dreamweaver, Contribute, Acrobat, Illustrator, Photoshop, etc. can be checked but the box in front of Flash (and Soundbooth, etc.) are unresponsive. I do still have CS3 Web Premium on this machine which has Flash CS3 Professional and Flash CS3 Video Encoder as well as also still having Studio 8 and CS 2 with Flash 8 and Flash 8 Video encoder and InDesign CS2 & CS3, Visual Communicator, VlogIt, etc.. Do I need to remove any of those first? This machine is about 3 years old (Dell Optiplex GX620) running Win XP. I'm about to upgrade to a new machine in about a month that will be running Windows 7. So I will be doing a clean install of CS4 Web Premium then. But it would be nice to fix this so I can work on some Flash files before then. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, I'm assuming you are using the Manual Install. Did you already Uninstall any current Flash Player version?
If not, download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Then download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
Use the EXE Installer for Windows and Internet Explorer. Use the EXE Installer for the plugin based browsers
Then use the Administrator Account and CLOSE all browser Windows. Disable any instant messenger service from the system tray.
Run the Uninstaller and reboot(restart) your computer.
Then Run the Installer and reboot.
That message appears because the IE browser window is open.
Thanks,

CS4 Web Premium Installation "Installer Database Corrupt. Contact Adobe Customer Service."

I need help.
I just purchased a HP Envy 23 running Windows 8. It came with Adobe Premiere and Elements 11 already installed.
I own Lightroom 3, which I installed very quickly and easily.
I own CS4 Web Premium with the serial number at hand. I insert the disk 1 to install and the error message appears: "Installer Database Corrupt. Contact Adobe Customer Service." After serveral attempts, I resort to researching on this forum.
In the forum, found here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1238032 I was asked to go the linked website and download and specifically follow the instructions to install CS4 from the internet. I did what I was told as closely as possible.
I received the same error message: "Installer Database Corrupt."
I asked if I needed to uninstall Elements 11 before trying to install CS4 but haven't received a response. Actually, now Adobe won't let me sign on with my password and when I request for a new one it doesn't send me a confirmation email so I have resorted to making a new username.
I called Adobe about the issue with the error and was directed back here to the forum because they do not have phone service support for CS2, CS3, CS4, or CS5 because it is "old" technology. I am loosing lots of work time because I can't seem to get a quick response to my questions here on the forum.
I found another forum saying that I need to rename the file "caps.db." to "xcaps.db" and it will install just fine. I did what it said, looking for any and every folder in both premiere and elements to rename anything that began with "caps" After doing so, I still got the error message.
What I need to know is:
1. How can I install CS4 Web Premium either by disk or internet without getting an error.
2. Must I totally uninstall Elements and Premiere to get CS4 installed? I really don't want to do that since I paid for them with the purchase of my computer.
I'd really like some answers. Thanks.

You're going to need to be more specific about what I am supposed to do because I'm very unfamiliar with computer lingo. I don't know what an OEM is and I am unsure about these backup disks you are referring to. The expertise on this forum is the only lifeline I have to fixing this Adobe issue so I really want to try my best here to get things resolved. I've not heard of deleting caps.db and haven't heard of anything to do with medai.db files before. I'm supposed to delete these instead of renaming caps?

CS4 Web Premium (Student Ed) Online Install - Setup.exe does nothing

I purchased and then downloaded CS4 Web Premium Student Edition. The first download was corrupted (due to an internet failure midway) so I erased and re-downloaded. The files extracted without issue under the new download. However, whenever I attempt to install by clicking Setup.exe, nothing happens. The cursor changes into the "hourglass" as if the system is processing something, then it changes back to the normal cursor -- and nothing happens. No processes are available in the Task Manager, either.
Following advice I've found scattered across forums all over the web, I have removed every Adobe software previously installed using Control Panel (Acrobat, Reader, PsE, PrE, & a trial Illustrator), disabled User Account Control, disabled antivirus/firewall software, ran Setup "as administator", tried Safe Mode, and restarted the computer several times. None of these methods produced any change in outcome whatsoever.
I am running HP Touchsmart tx2z, less than a month old and running like a charm, with the following specs:
Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1 (64-bit) *I download all available updates
AMD Turion(TM) X2 Ultra Dual-Core Mobile Processor ZM-87 (2.4GHz, 2MB L2 Cache)
8GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm)
500GB 5400RPM SATA Hard Drive
ATI Radeon(TM) HD 3200 Graphics with 64MB Display Cache Memory
Devoid of other advice, I will try reseting my system to factory defaults. However, I dread re-downloading the 4GB file (an 8 hour process), reconfiguring my system, backing all of my files up elsewhere, and reinstalling all other new software -- so any ideas are appreciated.

extra information,
when i run setup for premiere CS4 and open the setup in windows task the size is the same as the setup folder.
when i run setup for web premium CS4 and lopen the setup in windows task the size is 0,0 mb.
think this is the reason why the setup wont start.
hope this extra information is of any use

Installation problems with CS4 Web Premium

Hi everyone, I'm trying to install Application 1 DVD for Adobe CS4 Web Premium. So heres my problem..... When try to install Application 1 DVD, it stops installing at 82% of disc progress (Currently installing Adobe Color - Photoshop Specific CS4). It freezes for a while than a window pops up saying to insert disc 1. Isn't Application 1 disk 1? When I try inserting any one of the other DVDs, that same window pops up. Am I missing something here???? Could it be the reason that I'm running XP 64-bit? Any help would be appreciated!!!

How do I install Adobe CS4 Web Premium?

Hello, I recently bought Adobe CS4 Web Premium. I'm running Windows XP 64-bit. When I was trying to download the software, I got confused on which CD to install first (Application 1, Application 2, or Content). I figured to install Application 1. When I finished installing Application 1 it asked me to insert disk 1. Does anybody know which CD to install first?

Those are DVD's, not CD's.
I would do what the installer says.
Are you putting the DVD's into a DVD reader?

CS4 Web Premium (Dreamweaver mostly) PC or Mac

Hi
I am looking to purchase CS4 web premium (dreamweaver, fireworks, photoshop, illustrator etc..)
I currently own a windows vista laptop with a 14" screen, so I am wanting to purchase a new machine with a bigger 22"+ screen. My question is should I go for a pc or a mac. Which is best for running the software?
I am using the software to design my own web sites only, so not for other commercial work. I am looking at static sites and eventually database driven sites. Mac or Pc which is best for me. Thanks

Any of them will do. If it's just for your personal needs - go cheap and buy a PC. Better bang for the buck. You can find some decent mini/ micro PCs that should be sufficient for web design, occasional Photoshopping and even games and generally have a wider choice of options. The only alternative to this on the Mac side would be a Mac mini or an iMac, but iMac screens are rubbish and the cost of a Mac mini plus an eye-friendly LCD screen is still higher than a comparable PC+screen. Of course, the bigger the budget you have, the less critical this becomes...

Cannot install CS4 Web Premium

I am having problem in installation CS4 Web Premium in my Windows Vista x64 Ultimate. I will get Internet Explorer SCript Error:
An error has occurred in the script on this page
Line: 2
Char: 1
Error: Invalid character
Code: 0
URL: file://C:/Users/xxxxx/AppData/Local/Temp/ahmbedAlter.html
Do you want to continue running scripts on this page? Yes/No
I can't do anything once this happened. Tried to Yes or No will not help. After clicking many times, a dialog box will come up for follow up action (like to quit?) but there is no OK or Cancal or whatever button. I have to use Task Manager to kill the installation program.
I have tried to search for installation script error but none seems to be the same as mine. I appreciate your help.
Thank you.

Install demo of CS4 Web Premium-Photoshop Installs 64 bit and x86 versions but 64 bit does not work

Just installed the CS4 Web Premium demo onto a brand new 64 bit i7 processor with Windows Seven Home Premium machine with 9gb memory. The install seems to be fine except it installed a 64 bit version as well as x86 version into different folders. The x86 version works fine but the 64 bit version does not.
Every time I try to open a file using "Open With' I get the following message "The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application."
First of all why does it install both versions and why does it try to open everything in the 64bit version even after specifically telling it to open in the x86 version (even after setting the default file association to the x86 version.
I would of course like to use the 64 bit veriosn but if it not going to work. I'll use the 32 bit version. I just wantto be able to right click my mouse and be able to "Open With". I can open Photoshop 32 bit and open the file that way but it is a pain to do that way.
Any help would be appreciated

Both are installed to allow you to use 32 bit plugins. As for the problem, you'll get far more attention in the Photoshop forum.

Hello, I own a license for Adobe CS5 Production Premium and Adobe CS4 Design Premium for Windows/PC. I am switching to an OSX/MAC system. Is it possible to transfer my licenses to the new platform?

It's possible to transfer licenses but it must be done by contacting a Customer Service representative by phone or web chat. They'll probably have you submit a form.

Error 150:30 CS4 Web premium - Yosemite upgrade

I'm trying to recover from a Yosemite upgrade failure on my MacBook Pro. I used the Migration Assistant app to restore my Applications folder. When I launch any product from the suite, I get Error 150:30. I can't use the installer disk for CS4 Web Premium. I've attempted downloading it from the support site several times and it always fails. When I attempt to relaunch download in Safari, I get a message that I don't have permission to download the CS4 Web Premium installer.

Michael,
Thanks for the reply. I'm not running Yosemite. I'm still running Mavericks 10.9.5. CS4 worked fine in it. I'll try the cleaner and attempt another download.
Aaron
UPDATE: CS4 Installer doesn't work on Mavericks, although the apps were running before the failed Yosemite update. I've downloaded the installer but it doesn't launch. It behaves like a folder, showing the installer contents. Here is a screen shot.
UPDATE 2: The support reply was NOT helpful and didn't solve my problem. I'm not running Yosemite, if this post was read correctly.
I've downloaded CS4 Web Premium several times and it still doesn't work on 10.9.5.

How do I install the Content DVD in CS4 Web Premium?

I can't find anything about this on the forum. Sorry if it has been asked before (I know it's a very basic question), but can anyone tell me how I install the Content DVD in CS4 Web Premium, please? This is the DVD that contains the PDF manuals, Fonts and samples / tutorials for Fireworks and Photoshop.
The first two DVDs (Application 1 and 2) installed automatically, and then went straight to the Registration page without prompting me to insert any further DVDs. All of the software from the first two DVDs seems to have installed correctly.
However, when I insert the third DVD (Content), it will not auto-run. I see ut contains an "autorun.inf" file that references a program called "autoplay.exe", but the latter isn't present on the DVD. Could this be the problem?
I would be grateful for any suggestions.

Cutomer support on this issue is attrocious.
Here is what I asked them:

All very polite, but totally useless. They clearly haven't understood a word I said.
