Adobe Photoshop CS4 Installation Error

I'm new to this site and my computer has Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1.
After I installed Photoshop CS4 trial, it failed to install Photoshop, but the rest were successful. I went to get more information and this is the message:
Adobe Fonts All
Error:
Error 1603. Error 1907.Could not register font . Verify that you have sufficient permissions to install fonts, and that the system supports this font.
Adobe Photoshop CS4 English Language Pack
Error:
Error 2.
If there is a topic similar to this one, then I shouldn't be here!

I have been using Adobe Photoshop CS4 for a few months now without any problems or errors.
But last week.. i had a virus problem and decided to do a Clean Installation of my Operating System.
I was not too worried because I have done this millions of times already... and know the process like the back of my hand.
Well.. after the clean installation was complete, i started to load my applications.
To my surprise.. Adobe Photoshop CS4 would not install. Nor would Adobe Illustrator CS4.
It would get to the screen "Adobe is beginig the installation process" and would stall ..
At first... i thought it would eventually complete on it's own.. but after a few attempts and hours of the same screen with no progress.. it was obvious Adobe was no longer responding at that stage.
I searched high and low, night and day, over a few days trying to figure out the problem.
I was trouble-shooting everything.
In the middle of trouble-shooting, i took a break to surf the Net and see if i could find any suggestions when i ran into this Forum.
Someone mentioned disabling your Internet Security & Windows Defender.. and i thought.. no way.. it can't be that easy.
Well.. what do you know.. it was my Internet Security (Kaspersky Internet Security 2010)
After disabling Kaspersky Internet Security 2010, Adobe flew right pass the part where it was stalling, and finished installation without incident.
Adobe Illustrator CS4 also installed without any problems ...
I just wanted to share my experience as i know how frustrating it can be when software refuses to install.
Good Luck to everyone.. be patient.. trial & error. .. and im sure you'll figure it out.

"downloaded Photoshop CS4 here and i tried to install as trial (30 days), Error: "Please insert Photoshop C4 into drive E:/ to continue instalation" what's wrong? What should I do? To install free trial? Tks"
@ ApologetX
I had a similar problem when i extracted the contents of my Adobe DVD and made an ISO file out of it so i would no longer need the DVD for installation.
But what i realized is that.. Adobe will not install if it's installed from the ISO.. and during installation.. an error would pop up.. and ask for the DVD
You probably have done something similar.
Here's what i did to fix:
- Extract the contents of Adobe Photoshop CS4 into a Folder
- and install from that ..
After i extracted the contents and installed from "setup.exe" .. the installation completed without error ..
DVD
- If you're having problems from the DVD .. then try to extract the Contents of the DVD on to your Desktop..
and install from there ..
Trial Installer
- As for the Trial you are referring to .. im not familiar with it ..
but try to extract the contents of it to your Desktop .. and go from there ..
Good Luck

Photoshop CS4 Installation Crash Issues

Hey all.
I was installing the trial version of CS4 (on Vista) when my power went out. When I tried to install again, I kept getting this error message:
>- undefined
>- The installer database is invalid: please re-install the product from the original media
I checked the log and these are the errors I picked up:
>Failed to create payload session.
>Unable to load fileOptions from C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\faf656ef605427ee2f42989c3ad31b8\resources\pages\Install\Options\Op tions.js

I've tried a ton of different *solutions* to try and fix this. My attempt to uninstall via control panel failed, i got the same error message is the install. I can't find any CS4 folders in the regedit, so that didn't work. I downloaded windows install wizard utility, ran that, as well as the adobe cs4 cleanup script.
I manually deleted the common files > installer folder. I even uninstalled the illustrator CS4 trial.
Lastly i did a system restore.
Nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Could You post the file (provided it’s not too big) or at least a screenshot of the 3D (Materials)-Panel with some of the problematic Material selected?

Adobe Photoshop CS4 installation options

Hi,
I am preparing an unattended installation of Photoshop CS4. I generated the xml files using the command "setup.exe" --record=1.
Now I will create a bat file to execute the setup with the following sentence:
"setup.exe" --mode=Silent --deploymentFile="AdobeCS4\payloads\install.xml" --skipProcessCheck=1
I only know the argument "Silent" to apply to the "--mode", my question is: There are other arguments to apply on it?
PD: forgiveme if my english isnt very correct

You have a conflict with a CS2 product or a problem with your system's language settings. For the first case, download the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility, run it and remove all instances of Adobe Setup 2.0 that may be on your system. for the second case, set your system to a consistent standard language like US English and also make sure to pick that same language during install. Do not use odd combinations of your system running e.g. in Hindi and trying to install in French.

Photoshop CS4 installs but won't run with Vista OS

All,
I have installed CS4 on Vista 64 and completed without any errors. I was able to bring up Bridge and go through it without any issues. However, when I try to run either CS4 or CS4 64 bit, it starts to load and says it has quit working, windows tries to find a fix and does not and shuts the program down. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Tim

Try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ef4a07f/1
The location is different for Vista :
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4
Note to moderator: needs updating!
You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.

Problems with Photoshop CS4 installer, stops initializing at 90%

I need help. I have been trying for the last several days to install a copy of Photoshop CS4 on a new Laptop computer with Vista 64, I purchased Photoshop CS$ about a year ago. I have installed the same software on another computer with vista 64 with no problem. I have read everything on the Internet I can find. It seems that there is a final process which while initializing sticks. Others on the Internet are also having the same problem but fixes are all over the board. Adobe Tech tried to have me install another user, no help. I have tried to remove Photoshop in the control panel programs & features to no avail, its not a full copy. Can any one help, please
Thanks in advance

Did you update PS CS4 to 11.0.1? If not update before turning off opengl or updating Nvidia drivers.
There are also new nvidia drivers out 197.13. However, newer does not always equal better.

Photoshop CS4 Installer File for Mac

Hello,
I bought CS4 for mac (student edition, I am not sure if that matters) a couple of years ago and have since misplaced my disks, though I still have the serial numbers. Does anybody have the .dmg installer file for CS4? The file name MAY be photoshop_11_ls1.dmg. I realize this is a big file, so I am not sure the best way to get it to me, but I do have dropbox, or could it be possible to post it to this forum or mail me a dvd with the file on it? Thank you so much. I am desperately in need!!
Sarah

...authentic Adobe CS4 free trial downloads remain available for all products and platforms (Windows/Mac) if needed, it's just a matter of finding the proper places to look on Adobe's servers. Click on the underlined blue link.

Photoshop CS4 installation "Critical errors were found in Setup Please see the Setup log file for details".

Habe mir einen neuen Laptop bestellt (Win 8.1) habe auf diesem die Installation ohne Probleme durchführen können. Der Laptop musste aber wegen technischen Defekts gegen einen neuen getauscht werden.
Auf diesem funktioniert die Installation nicht mehr.(Fehler siehe oben in Threadbeschreibung) Habe auch schon nach Lösungen gegoogelt - die Tipps von "Neu aufsetzen" bringen mir nichts da der Computer nagelneu ist.
Der Fehler kommt sowohl beim installieren von CD und bei der heruntergeladenen Version.
Wo ich dieses Log-File finde weiß ich nicht.
Daten zum Laptop (Falls diese benötigt werden) Dell Inspirion 15 7000er Serie mit einem i7 2,0Ghz, 16GB Ram, 2Gb Grafikkarte und Windows 8.1 64bit.
Habe die CD auf dem Rechner von meinem Dad (Win XP SP3) versucht zu starten, dabei entsteht der gleiche Fehler.
Vielen Dank jetzt schonmal für die Hilfe
Sven

Habe mein Windows nun doch nochmal neu installiert - siehe da es funktioniert.
Schwach finde ich von Adobe keinen Support mehr am Telefon anzubieten. Mag zwar sein das Cs4 nicht mejr aktuell ist aber dennoch zu sagen es gibt keinen Support mehr ist schwach! Die Damen und Herren in der Geschäftsleitung mögen es zwar nicht glauben aber es gibt auch Menschen auf diesem Planeten die nicht mit Geld um sich werfen können.
Ich wünsche mir für die Leute da oben auch mal ähnliche Probleme in einer Autowerkstatt wenn sie mit ihren Oldtimer ein Problem haben und dort dann gesagt wird das dieses Fahrzeug leider nicht mehr repariert werden kann weil es zu alt ist.
Danke an die Hilfe die ich bekommen habe - auch wenn sie nicjts gebracht hat.

Photoshop CS4 installation problem

I have bought CS4 and installed it successfully. I now have the upgrade disc to CS4 extended (bought from Adobe). When I run the disc, it offers to install CS4 NOT extended. When i install...i have the basic program ...not extended. Why?. I tried uninstalling the original version and re-installing from the disc...original version still on my computer.
I uninstalled, re-installed a trial version of cs4 extended from the web..it would only acccept the serial number from CS4 and NOT my extended box...
I cannot seem to get extended onto my computer! any ideas?

The old version must be deactivated and uninstalled. Extended features are solely differentiated by the serial. If your PS Standard is part of a suite, then the whole suite must be upgraded, e.g. Design Standard to Design Premium, not just Photoshop. Only one serial can be valid at any one time, so there is no such thing as having a suite and a separate PS extended on the same system.

Photoshop cs4 installation problems

hi im having big problems getting Photoshop on and off of my mac book iv tried to uninstall it (i did it complete wrong by dragging and dropping it in to the trash i now know that’s not the way) iv put a post on the mac web site and was told to do this,
"You won't be able to install CS4 until is is properly uninstalled. In the Utilities folder, you'll find the folder "Adobe Installers". There will be an alias in there named per the Adobe software you installed. Double click that to launch it and start the uninstall process. You'll get a list of software you can put check boxes in to remove from the hard drive. There's also a Select All button at the top.
This may or may not work since you already manually removed some of the items the uninstaller will be looking for. If it appears to finish, then try installing PS CS4 again.
The blunt approach is to use Adobe's Clean Script tool. This will remove anything to do with any piece of CS4 files from the hard drive. You will definitely be able to reinstall after running it. Be aware though that it will remove ALL CS4 software on the hard drive. InDesign, Flash Pro, Photoshop, etc. You don't get to pick and choose."
non of this worked and when i put the disk in it brings up the setup program but wont accept the serial number and when i try to install the trial version it asks for the disk to be inserted which is all ready in the disk tray iv got no idea what to do can any one help me please

any one ????

Photoshop CS4 missing files after uninstall of CS3

I upgraded the Adobe Creative Suite CS3.3 Design Premium today to CS4 on my MacPro. The upgrade went smoothly. After using the Adobe uninstaller for CS3 and starting Photoshop CS4, an error message appeared stating that required support files were missing, re-install Photoshop CS4. After a second Photoshop CS4 installation all is well.
Apparently the CS3 Design Premium uninstaller is removing a file required for CS4 also.
This is not an isolated incident, as it happened again when installing CS4 on my MacBook Pro. I have also read of similar incidents in other forums. It seems to affect only Photoshop CS4.

As I no longer require CS3 on my Mac after upgrading to CS4 and waiting for the required plugins to be available I have successfully uninstalled CS3 using the Adobe CS3 Creative Suite uninstaller.
NOTE: please make a copy of the 'Adobe Unit Types.osax' found Macintosh HD/Library/ScriptingAdditions/Adobe Unit Types.osax
At home did this without making a backup of the 'Adobe Unit Types.osax', so when I launched Photoshop CS4 it suffered from the "Error: "One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder.."
At work I did this with making a copy of 'Adobe Unit Types.osax', place it back after the uninstall of CS3... and presto so far so good.
for the 'Error: "One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder... are missing' when you start Photoshop CS4 (Mac OS)" read here:

sorry if this has already been posted, I could not see this anywhere.

Trying to install Photoshop CS4 and it won't accept my CS4 licenses.

I had the HD crash on my pc and I'm trying to reinstall Photoshop CS4. I log into my Adobe account and retrieve the licenses key and when I input that into the Photoshop CS4 installer I downloaded right from Adobe it says the key is wrong. I have checked the licenses several times and it won't install where do I go from here?

I got it there was something weird with the installer I copied to my thumb drive I re-copied the download and it works fine now.

Critical error during PS CS4 installation

I have just purchased the download version of Photoshop CS4, but unfortunately it won't install...
After having unpacked to the default location (desktop) and starting setup.exe, the "Adobe Photoshop CS4 Installer: Initializing" dialog appears. When it's just about 90% finished, the "Adobe Photoshop CS4 Install-Loading Setup" screen appears along with the message "Critical errors were found in setup Please see the Setup log file for details" This window is titled "Windows Internet Explorer"
It does not say where to find the log file or what its exact filename is.
Windows XP SP3 English version, Intel Core Duo 6600, 2Gb RAM, Ati Radeon X1950XTX.
I've had trials of Photoshop CS3 and Lightroom 2.1 on this system in the past. These have been uninstalled. I've also ran the
CS3Clean.exe script.
I also had Photoshop Elements 3 which I've also uninstalled.
Any suggestions welcome!

Hi David,
[With apologies for straying off-topic]
Im unaware of any programs or tools installed with Windows that will restore an identical copy of your registry. Besides ERUNT, several of the fix-it or registry cleaning/tweaking programs can back up & restore your entire registry, including the popular CCCleaner, but Ive seen so many folks get into trouble *Cleaning* their registry, I dont feel good recommending any of them. Of course you shouldnt have to use any Cleaning features to backup & restore your Registry, but the temptation is always there. ERUNT on-the-other-hand is a One-trick Pony, & does nothing but backup & (if need be) restore your registry, & for pre-Vista Windows I cant recommend it enough.
Typing Regedit into the Run box starts the Windows program of the same name, and it works fine exporting backups of individual keys, sub-keys, or even the entire registry, BUT, while merging back individual keys, or importing saved, partial registry backups works fine, you cant restore the entire registry with Windows running... you cant replace any keys/values that Windows is using at the time, so you have to restore the registry outside of Windows.
This is something many sites get wrong, & Ive seen recently where Adobe has repeated this mis-statement too, advising their users to backup their complete Registry using Regedit. A relatively harmless way to prove the point is to set a Restore Point [out of an abundance of caution ;^) ], backup your entire registry with Regedit, then try to merge the exported .reg file. IMHO its better to find out it doesnt work *before* you really, REALLY, need it to work.
Backing up & restoring the entire registry is what Windows System Restore is supposed to do, since it changes things during a reboot/restart, before Windows fires up. The problem with System Restore is that it wont always delete every new key or value added, just like it wont delete every file change since the Restore Point was created. Vistas System Restore is better than earlier versions of Windows, keeping a shadow copy of your drives contents in a special format, but its not perfect. [note: just looking at that drive in other operating systems will delete any restore data if they dont understand the special format Shadow Copy uses]
If a person is experienced with Registry editing, in this case IMHO theres nothing at all wrong with using Regedit to export (save) just the Post Platform keys with sub-keys they plan on deleting. But if someones unsure about Registry editing, or just wants an extra measure of safety, back up the whole thing first using whatever favorite tools - just make sure restoring your backup works, or youve wasted your time.
Thanks,
mike
