I am trying to install Dreamweaver CS3 on my Windows 8 laptop.

I  am having trouble finding the icon after I install a program. I installed Dreamweaver CS3 and can't find where to start the program.

The error is here:
Dreamweaver CS3 on my new Windows 8 PC
This will most likely never work. CS3 wasn't even fit for Win 7. Delete the caps.db in the respective caps folder (info here) and then take the usual steps of running as admin, turning off UAC and security tools and possibly using compatibility modes, but as I said, be prepared that this may be futile and you spend a Sunday afternoon without achieving anything...

  • Trying to install Dreamweaver cs3

    I've got a brand-new copy of Dreamweaver cs3 and for some reason, it won't load onto my computer. I tried it on another computer and it works okay. The silly thing is, the drives are working okay because I  installed another program just to make sure that the drives are working and that went in okay. I am using an HP media centre pc that's got 2 drives. if I put in the top drive where you can burn CDs, it isn't even recognising the disk. It recognises it in the second disc drive but it doesn't auto run when you put the CD in the drive, and if you open it up manually, it just won't install, nothing happens. Any ideas what is happening because like I said, I installed another program & that went in okay?

  • Frustration!!! Trying to install Acrobat 9 Pro on Windows 7 laptop

    Why is this so hard to do?
    I have a windows 7 laptop that is dying so I decided to replace it with another windows 7 laptop.  The two programs I use on the computer is Framemaker 11 and Acrobat 9 Pro.  Both are working fine on my old laptop.
    I have deactivated framemaker on the old system and loaded it on the new with a hitch.  Acrobat 9 pro on the other hand will not load.  It says:
    "Setup has detected that you already have a more functional product installed. Setup will now terminate."
    The new laptop came preloaded with acrobat reader 10 and a few other things.  I have uninstalled acrobat reader X, adobe cloud, adobe air and there is still a conflict.  What do I need to remove to get this working?
    Thanks,
    Doug

    Hi Doug Thistle,
    According to the error message that you are getting means that your computer has already a latest version of Acrobat installed.
    You may download Adobe Acrobat cleaner tool on your machine and check if that detects any latest version on your computer if that does you can uninstall if that one if not licensed
    To download Adobe Acrobat cleaner tool: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html

  • Problems installing Dreamweaver CS3

    Hi, I've been trying to install Dreamweaver CS3 on my Vista
    computer, home premium and I've already spent numerous hours
    installing and uninstalling the product!
    The problem is that the installer fails to install Adobe Cue
    Client CS3.
    I've googled the problem and found that logs were generated
    on a gzip file on C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\
    as i've read here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401401&sliceId=1
    All anti-virus (NOD32) and firewalls (COMODO) are disabled.
    Like the page suggests I've uninstalled all products from
    Adobe, except Acrobat 8 and and run the CS3cleaner scripts provided
    by you, in level 2, to clean all files from my computer, as a page
    from adobe recommends too.
    I've alse run tried to run the installer as administrator,
    with the same results.
    I provide the install log from Adobe Dreamweaver on link
    http://www.sendspace.com/file/s27cuj,
    from the last PayloadInstaller that failed to install.
    On event manager the error is logged like this:
    quote:
    Product: Adobe Version Cue CS3 Client -- Error 1920.Service
    ##Id_String1.6844F930_1628_4223_B5CC_5BB94B879762## (Bonjour
    Service) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient
    privileges to start system services.
    How can I solve this problem??

    I would recommend calling as well. I ran into a similar
    problem on the Mac side and they have information to provide you
    beyond the KB articles. Although I have just decided to do without
    it since I really did not utilize its functionality so if you feel
    the same I would recommend not using the program as well.

  • Cannot install Dreamweaver CS3 on Mac

    I have a MacBook, OS X 10.5.8.  Processor:  2.4Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo  Memory:  2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
    I am trying to install Dreamweaver CS3 on my Mac and have had no luck.   There is no "Setup" as specified in the help I've found.   There is Setup.exe, but that just opens in TextEdit.   I've tried snooping on the disc but have found nothing that will execute.
    How on earth do I install this software???
    Thank you!
    Paula

    Well if you recently bought it try returning it or stop payment on your credit card.  All discs from Adobe recently (going back probably to CS2) carry one version or the other.  And given that you just got CS3 tells me the version was purchased off of Ebay, Craigslist or some other form of reselling because all commercial sales channels will be selling only CS4 at this point in time.

  • Problem on install Dreamweaver CS3 on Vista

    I tried to install Dearmweaver CS3 on Microsoft window
    buisness 6.0.6001
    but when the insaller startup is apear for a seconds then
    disapear
    i tried to search in the forums but all problems there after
    this step

    Here is another solution if the first one doesnt work.
    "This solution posted by gorodek on the Adobe forums helped
    me out with the
    problem where the installer just dies with no error message
    or warning.
    1. Start the Setup as usual and let it copy over a few files
    and than -
    after a short popup - let him disappear. There shouldn't be
    any other errors
    except the described above, otherwise you have to deal with
    these first (eg.
    run the cleanup script, if the setup complains about an
    already running
    installation etc).
    2. Now open up your Windows Explorer and go to
    C:\Program Files\Common
    Files\Adobe\Installers\c14ac4070fd9614ffe63f4bb533db2c\resources\common\scripts
    3. Locate a file called "ContainerProxy.js" in the opened
    Window and open it
    with Notepad.
    4. Go to line 1102 or simply search for
    "jsonObj =
    _jsonToObject(window.external.SetSessionInitialized(initValue));"
    and replace this line with
    "jsonObj = _jsonToObject(SetSessionInitialized(initValue));"
    5. Save the file.
    6. Startup up the installation process by launching Setup.exe
    from this
    path:
    C:\Program Files\Common
    Files\Adobe\Installers\c14ac4070fd9614ffe63f4bb533db2c\Setup.exe
    This time the installer shouldn't quit and hopefully you will
    be able to
    install.
    The random hex-number differs on each system I found out. Now
    Setup runs.
    Let's hope I don't run into any other problems.
    Make sure the syntax is exact when you make the java script
    code
    modification.
    "jsonObj = _jsonToObject(SetSessionInitialized(initValue));"
    Make sure there's a space before and after the "=".

  • Error Installing InDesign CS3 Server on Windows Server 2008 R2 64BIT

    Hello there-
    I'm trying to install InDesign CS3 Server on Windows Server 2008 R2 64BIT (x64) Edition, however, we get a failure indication on the installer. Before, we have installed it properly on Windows Server 2008 R2 32BIT (x32) but some how we cannot proceed on a x64 box.
    Is there any limitation on this sense? Any documentation about it?
    Thanks and appreciate your answers.

  • I am trying to reinstall Dreamweaver CS3 from the CD after having computer issues.  Now getting error "You can only install one Adobe product at a time.  Please complete the other installation before attempting to install ......."  There is no other Adobe

    I am trying to reinstall Dreamweaver CS3 from the CD after having computer issues.  Now getting error "You can only install one Adobe product at a time.  Please complete the other installation before attempting to install ......."  There is no other Adobe product installing.  I have used the Adobe Cleaner Tool many times and uninstalled other Adobe Products but neither has worked.  I have uninstalled/reinstalled this CD version of Dreamweaver several times when changing computers and after having computer issues. A google search of the problem suggested it may be an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues.  Please help.

    A google search of the problem suggested it may be an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues.
    Absolutely not. You are misinterpreting things. The activation check never happens when just running the installer, only much later. It means what it says - there is another "install" pending/ active on your system, meaning somewhere there is an (invisible) process still blocking things. Either way, since you haven't provided any real technical info, we can't advise specifically. if you are on Windows, you may want to check your task manager and terminate any setup.exe and msiexec.exe processes plus potentially may need to manually fix/ delete some registry keys. For anything beyond that you will have to be much more specific.

  • Changed battery in laptop and now when trying to open dreamweaver cs3, I get "licensing for this product has stopped working"... contact customer support (thats a laugh).  So what now?

    Changed battery in laptop and now when trying to open dreamweaver cs3, I get "licensing for this product has stopped working"... contact customer support (thats a laugh).  So what now?
    it says:  You cannot use this product at this time.  You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT admin or Adobe customer support for help.
    Well it seems I am only able to install this on a maximum of 3 computers so if I uninstall and reinstall I may have used up all three.  What caused this in the first place?

    And most licenses extend to 2 machines; not 3.  Your computer's clock probably reset when you changed batteries. Is your computer's clock set to the correct date and time now?

  • Running Mavericks on an iMac 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, I've been trying to install Adobe CS3. All components install except InDesign. Is this an installation disk problem or is it not compatible with the OS?

    Running Mavericks on an iMac 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, I've been trying to install Adobe CS3 Design Premium. All components install except InDesign. Is this an installation disk problem, or is there a compatibility problem with the OS?

    I fear that you are trying to download OLDER Software on a newer Operating Sysytem Meaning that you need to Install the Latest Version of Adobe on the Newer Operating System for it to work Properly. Be sure to always check the minimum System Requirements.

  • 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.

  • My hard drive crashed and I need to re-install Dreamweaver CS3

    My hard drive crashed and I need to re-install Dreamweaver CS3. I have my license but I cannot find a copy of the software. I found some comments that Adobe is not making it available for download. I would like to continue to use this version.  Anyone have any ideas on where I can find a copy of Dreamweaver CS3?

    if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
    and activate with your serial.
    if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
