Illustrator CS6 says "installation failed" when installing.

Illustrator CS6 says "installation failed" when installing. No explanation is given. I don't have any previous versions of AI installed or any trials. Help? I really need to use this product today!

We can't know. You need to provide system information and possibly the install logs:

  • Receiving the error Installation Failed when installing After Effects

    I tried several times to download AE both through a trial of Creative Cloud and the "Download Now" button under the product.  One time the download got to 99% and then abruptly quit.  I'm on a Mac using OS 10.6. I have used PS, Illustrator and Indesign rather heavily for several years but have never tried AE.  I wanted to try it and also the Creative Cloud at the same time.
    It doesn't look very promising to me. Hope you get yours working.

    I have branched this out to a new discussion.  I would recommend you start with downloading and attempting the installation of the trial of After Effects.  You can locate the trial at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=after_effects.  If you are able to successfully install the software then please choose the option to License this Software after it is installed as a trial.  You will then want to enter your Adobe ID tied to your Creative Cloud subscription.
    If you continue to experience difficulties then you will want to utilize the Adobe Support Advisor - http://www.adobe.com/support/loganalyzer/ to automatically review your installation logs.  Alternatly, or if you do not receive an actionable result, you may want to review the installation logs manually to determine the source of your difficulties.  You can locate steps on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

    I keep getting an installation error when I try to install CS6 on my Macbook Pro. It says "installer failed to initialize, this could be due to a missing file".

  • After the update to Android 5.0.1 my Galaxy Gear S will not install apps, I get an error message that says "Installation Failed. Try Later. (WO:WO:-1002)

    After the update to Android 5.0.1 on my Galaxy Note 4, my Galaxy Gear S will not install apps, I get an error message that says "Installation Failed. Try Later. (WO:WO:-1002). I am glad it was a free app I was trying to install (I tried a couple of different ones to see if it was just a bad app and they all failed on the install. The Note 4 and the Gear S seem to be communicating okay via bluetooth (health stuff syncs, Gear S controls the music player on the note 4 Etc. )

    Everything that I had installed previously on the gear S still works.
    Everthing while in the gear manager seems to be working okay also. I can make changes in the Gear manager on the note 4 and they show up on the gear S. I have an app called watch styler , it let me create a new watch on the Note 4 and that showed up on the Gear S.
    The only thing that seems to be not working is installing new apps.
    When trying to get a new app it looks like it is working as normal , the dowload shows it is working but it errors out when it goes to install it.

  • Install of Elements trial fails when installing Shared Technologies

    Have tried installing the Elements 10 trial on both an XP Pro and a Win7 Pro PC and have the same problem.
    Install of trial fails when installing Shared Technologies and then rolls back the install of the Elements Organiser.
    Anyone seen this before?   Any ideas?

    Can you please make your question a seperate thread?
    It would be helpful if you could please provide us the install log for it. Install logs can be found at C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\ with name Elements STI Installer 1.0 <date>.log.gz
    Use a decompression utility such as Winzip to uncompress the .gz file. Once uncompressed, you will have a new file without the .gz extension. The filename could now be something like "Elemens STI Installer 1.0 11-21-2012.log."
    Open the .log file using notepad
    Copy the whole log and paste it here.

    Hi Willy,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The article below provides information about specific update and restore alerts, including the 9006 alert that you saw when attempting to update your iPad 2 to iOS 8.1. Try using the instructions provided to see if the issue is caused by a conflict with the security software on your computer.
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors
    Check your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can prevent your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
    Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't preventing a connection to the Apple servers.
    I hope this helps,
    -Jason

    Downloaded music apps o.k.  Says login failed when I put in user and password. No trouble when getting any other apps.

    Sounds like you may have deleted something you shouldn't have. Boot to an OS X DVD or a bootable backup, and using Disk Utility, do a repair disk, and while there repair permissions. Disconnect any peripherals, and reboot. If you get the same startup behavior, do a safe boot, by holding the shift key down when booting. If that works, try a normal boot. If neither step helps, you may need to relaod your operating system.
