how can i do ?

You can't just trash Adobe apps. You need to uninstall them.
Now you'll need to hunt down the CS4 clean script and run that.

Can't install Dreamweaver CS4 on WIndows 7. Setup error

I can't install Dreamweaver CS4 on WIndows 7. I get a vague error that says Setup error, sontact Adobe Customer Support. Adobe Customer Support refuses to help me. That really upsets me.

First of all I would like to thank the people that responded to my post. I am extreemly impressed with your eagerness to help and your concern for my problem. Thank you very much! I appreciate it.
I did not see a way to get a transcript of my chat. I should have printed it at the conclusion of my chat. Overall though, I think my concerns are with Windows itself and also how Adobe as a company handles a call from someone who gets an installation error that says "call Adobe Customer Support". I purchased this program to run on Windows 7 and I am installing it on a Windows 7 computer. I feel that if Adobe is going to give a vague error message and tell you to contact them, they should give me more assistance than "your product is too old, good luck on the forums". I could see if I am calling and asking them how to do something, maybe my product is too old for that, but I think their responce was unacceptable. I hope enough other people complain so that Adobe changes this policy.
Wow, this has taken an enormous amount of time to deal with. I imagine this is mainly a Windows file permissions issue, but I think Adobe needs to take some ownership for a client having to spend many HOURS trying to install their program on the original OS they purchased the program for.
I definitely do not like the way the Adobe Dreamweaver installer deals with errors. Here are the facts as I know them.
When the installer would fail on install, the subsequesnt install would fail, but it would give a VERY cryptic error stating that the install failed and I need to contact Adobe customer service.
In order to re-install I had to un-install. Naturally my un-installs failed every time, too. After lots of trial and error and checking the forumns, I found   the program install folders under c:\programs. I deleted them, re-booted, unistalled again with no errors. Then I could re-install without the vague "contact Adobe customer support" error. Note that I had to re-install several times to get to the bottom of the installation problem so this took a long time to figure out.
In the end, I had to manually delete files from C:\Windows\Installer in order to get Dreamweaver to install. This took a long time to figure out, too. It still installed with errors, but it said Dreamweaver would work with limited functionality. So far this is good enough for me and I am tired of spending non-billable time on this.
Following is one of the main erros I got during the first failed install. IF ANYONE KNOWS EXACTLY WHY MY INSTALL WAS FAILING I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW. IT SEEMS LIKE IT DID NOT HAVE PERMISSION FROM THE OPERATING SYSTEM TO ACCESS THOSE FILES, BUT THAT SHOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE AS THE PROGRAM IS INSTALLED AS ADMINISTRATOR. Any thoughts???
Thanks again everyone who helped!

I can't install Dreamweaver 8 on Windows 7

Just like my title, I can't install Dreamweaver 8 on Windows 7 Release Candidate.
I can start the installation, but it just stuck at "installing" for very long time，and the installation just can not Continue...
I already try to running it in XP compatibility mode( Windows XP SP2), and the answer is the same: can't install.
Can anyone advise, please?

I'm afraid you may be out of luck. DW 8 is 3 versions old and was not tested to work on the new operating system.
There have been reports that some people are unable to run CS4 or are having problems with CS4 on Windows 7, so I doubt very much that DW8 would work. Sorry.
See this thread for the same issue

Re-install dreamweaver CS4

Trying to re-install dreamweaver cs4 after a computer problem. During installation, program would only process thru 90% of the check system profile before completly stopping. Let it run over an hour and nothing happen

What type of computer problem did you face? Are you installing from a CD? If so you can try copying the install files to your desktop to see if you receive a read error while reading the disc. If you do receive a read error then you can download a fresh copy of the install files from http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html.

Where can I download Dreamweaver CS4 Student Edition?

Hi,
I´m already registered with my valid Licence key. But now I have to install Dreamweaver CS4 (Student Edition) on my new computer and I can´t find my installation CD´s.
Can anybody help me?
I already tried to install the "normal" Dreamweaver CS4 installation files. But finally my Student Licence key was always rejected.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hello Marion,
I've moved this question to the Dreamweaver forum where they can better assist you.

On how many systems can i install dreamweaver cs6

About a month ago i have format my whole old pc with also dreamweaver cs6 deleted (i had troubles with my whole pc, thats the reason to format the whole pc) I sell the empty pc. only windows 7 on it.
Now i have an new pc. and i have installed dreamweaver cs6 on it. it works ok.
My question is: on how many computers can i install dreamweaver cs6
I have in my home 2 times the program installed. one on this pc and one on the pc that i selled (The program dreamweaver cs6 was not anymore on that pc that i selled. I had deleted it)
Now I would like to sell the adobe dreamweaver cs6, becaus i don't need it anymore. is this possible? because i had installed it on two systems in my home. one on this system and one on a system that i selled (deleted the DWcs6 on the selled pc).

You seem to be asking two different questions.
The answer to how many computers you can install Dreamweaver on is two. However, if you want to sell Dreamweaver, you must transfer the licence entirely to the other person. In other words, you can't keep Dreamweaver on one of your computers, and sell the other permitted installation to someone else.
Details of how to tranfer the licence (or sell your copy) can be found here: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/transfer-product-license.html.
However, you say that you deleted your version from one computer. That's not enough. You should have deactivated it first. You will need to get Adobe to cancel the activation on the computer you no longer have. Otherwise, the person who buys from you won't be able to install on two computers.
This is a user-to-user forum. If you need further help, contact Adobe Customer Support directly.

Error Installing Dreamweaver CS4 on Windows 7: Installer Database is Corrupt

Error Message: The Installer Database is Corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer Service.
I bought a new laptop and would like to install Dreamweaver CS4 on it. It is already running fine on my desktop, being installed back in 1/2011. Both PCs are Windows 7 but the new laptop is Windows 7 Professional. I have downloaded the two install files ADBEDRWVCS4_LS1.7z and ADBEDRWVCS4_LS1.exe multiple ways and to multiple locatons on the laptop. I've run the .exe file multiple ways and extracted to several locations besides the default (c:\users\userid\Desktop\Adobe CS4). After the extract completes and it tries to run setup I get the same message "The Installer Database is corrupt. Please Contact Adobe Customer Service" (which I did and they just gave me another download link I had already tried).
I even copied the folder with the extracted files done on my desktop (where the install had succeeded). And still got the same message when I ran setup.exe on the laptop. I tried running it with a "run as administrator" command prompt, double-clicking in Windows Explorer, start > run and the same thing happens. At least it doesn't appear that it has actually installed anything yet.
I did notice that my new PC has a program called "7-zip 9.20" installed which I do not remember installing and its install date is prior to my purchase of the PC so I'm guessing it came with it (HP Pavilion 15t running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit). The Windows 7 Desktop does not have this program installed. It is available from C|net where it has a good rating. Perhaps setup.exe does further extracting and the 7-zip program is the culprit? This is a long shot.
I searched for others with this problem and found lots of issues installing Dw CS4, but none quite like this.

Awesome! That worked! Actually I searched three folders (Program Files, Program Files (x86) & Program Data) for caps.db and found:
c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premier Elements\caps.db (dated 9/2/2011)
c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Backup\caps.db
I ignored the first one since it might be needed by the Premier Elements 10 I installed yesterday and changed the name of the other one from caps.db to barb.fix.
I changed the install folder from c:\Program Files\Adobe to c:\Program Files (x86) just in case CS4 is a 32-bit application which I had done before when installing on my Windows7 Desktop. Now that the install has completed I see that I have caps.db files dated 5/5/2014 in
c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\caps\caps.db
c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\backup\caps.db (barb.fix is still there but is only 26kb vs 3291 kb for the new caps.db)
Thank-you so much! Now wish me luck when I try to open it for the first time!

Can't install flash cs4 on windows 7

hello everybody,
I'm running windows 7 ultimate and I'm trying to install flash cs4 professional with no luck.
it always get stuck and about 93% and i get the error massage the it can't install flash cs4
please help me

Hi, just to expand my understanding. Have you had other versions of flash installed prior to the CS4 one? Maybe you should run a registry cleaner; there may be a reg problem based on my understanding. Also, check to see if you have any kind of software(like an antivirus etc), this may be not letting execute the installer files correctly.
Lastly, check to see if you have all the full privileges in your computer. Are you an administrator?
Please let me know if you have any questions. Hope this information is useful.

Installing Dreamweaver CS4 while keeping CS3 web premium 1603 error

Hi,
I am trying to install Dreamweaver CS4 but I also have creative suite 3 web premium installed and want to keep all the cs3 programs except for dreamweaver cs3 because I'm upgrading to CS4. When I try to install it I get the infamou 1603 error.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Unregister everything CS3 and remnants of failed CS4 installs using the CS4 Clean Utility. Also include Acrobat Reader. Manually uninstall AIR-based stuff using the "Add or Remove Programs" panel. Then try again.

Windows 2003 ..can't install any CS4 applications

I use Windows 2003 as my workstation and for the past two days I've been trying to install trial CS4 applications but with no luck.
I've been using CS3 for a long time now without issues, installs perfectly using Application Verifier. I uninstalled CS3 before attempting CS4 installation.
I tried many things but no matter what I do it always gets to 90% on "checking system profile", then "Loading Setup" splash screen pops up for few seconds but than goes away and "checking system profile" is still there at 90% and never goes any further. I can see it using a bit of CPU and memory usage changes while it's there but it never goes any further.
I tried uninstalling all Adobe apps, except for Lightroom as I'm a little nervous about losing things, but it didn't help. I used both CS3 and CS4 cleanup scripts. I used two different admin accounts, disabled antivirus but nothing.
Log file doesn't show any errors as far as why the installation stops.
I tried standalone versions of Photoshop CS4 and Dreamweaver CS4, they both show Loading Setup panel for few seconds but than setup.exe crashes. I tried faking WinXP SP2 and SP3 with application verifier but it makes no difference.
I'm out of ideas, formatting the system is really not an option, I have too many things.
My setup:
OS: Win 2003 Std
CPU: Core2Quad Q6600
RAM: 4 GB
HD: WD VelociRaptor
Video: GForce 6600GT

Actually Windows 2003 Server is not basically Windows XP on steroids and similarly, Windows 2008 Server is not basically Windows Vista on steroids. There are some significant differences between the desktop and server versions of Windows these days, especially related to security in terms of how applications are installed and what they can do. I learned about this the hard way when I tried to setup a new system with Windows 2003 Server instead of Windows XP Pro back in 2003 or so (primarily to get AppleTalk and MacOS file system compatibility services). Even then many applications and pieces of system software just wouldn't install.
Back to Adobe, we specifically have
not tested the CS4 suite or any of its application (other than InDesign Server 6) on any of the server versions of Windows. We don't claim compatibilty of same with CS4 in any of the system requirements. You will get any support this from Adobe Technical Support.
