  • Cs6 trial downloaded but not in programs list.

    I recently downloaded the CS6 trial version onto my Gateway 64bit system.  The files ended up in my adobe programs folder, but NOT on my programs list and I have no desktop icon to launch the program.  How to I get the files into my programs list and launch it?

    After downloading had the installer started? For example, did you get a Try/ enter Serial number screen?
    The Adobe Download Assistant prompts you for download location, and saves the installer there.
    When prompted, what location had you chosen?
    When you say, the folders are created in the programs folder, what files do you see inside it?
    If you see only 2: one exe and another .7Z, then those are the downloaded files; Move the entire folder to your desktop and start the exe file to start the installation process.

  • Free Trial version Photoshop CS3 downloaded but not opening

    What is on your desk top is the installer.
    Now you have to run that.

  • Illustrator CS5 trial--download will not open

    After a complete download and extraction period, the message "illegal seek" appears on my Mac when I attempt to open.

    I did find a thread on the Apple discussion forums at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3112605?start=0&tstart=0 which seems to indicate the download could be corrupted.  I would recommend deleting the currently downloaded file and then try downloading again.  If you continue to have difficulties you may want to try using an alternate Internet connection.

  • Creative cloud downloading, but not opening properly

    I have a one year membership for the creative cloud, so I downloaded the app. However, when I try and open it it is blank (I have also tried adding photoshop and lightroom to it, but they don't show at all). All i see is a black screen when I open the app. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it. Nothing happened. Any advice?

    Jabby702 which operating system are you using?  I would recommend trying solution 2 in CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/aam-lists-removed-apps-date.html.

  • Trouble opening the free photoshop and illustrator trial downloads, please help!

    Trouble opening the free photoshop and illustrator trial downloads, please help!

    Dear Michael,
    In response to your questions, please see below;
    What OS? OS X 10.8.2
    What happens? When i click on the ''AdobePatchInstaller'' i get this message, ''Update Failed, Updates could not be applied. This patch is not applicable for you. Please check for updates from the Help menu in your product to see a list of latest updates available. If the problem persists, contact customer support for further assistance.
    Any error messages? No
    Did you have previous versions of the software on your system? No
    Is the trouble with the download or the installation of the software? I am not sure but i think it may be the download. It shows that the download was complete and icon appears on the desktop.                                                                                I plan to buy the ''Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium'' but i wanted to try it first via the free trials, especially Photoshop and Illustrator. So please let me know what i need to do.
    Kind regards,

  • I can download emails, but not open them.

    I recently updated Mozilla Thunderbird to the latest version (31.5.0), and started having problems with three of my five email addresses. Specifically, I can download my messages to Thunderbird ... but not open them! When I click a message, it opens a new tab, which remains blank. I've given one of those tabs a half hour while working on other things, and the email never opened. Also, the program makes my laptop sound like it's running a marathon while it tries to simply open an email.
    The two addresses that work fine are Gmail addresses. The three that are having trouble are specific to three domains that I own. (i.e. myname @ mywebsite.com).
    I've searched for the answer, and haven't run across anyone else talking about this problem.
    I was meaning to set up these addresses through Google Apps anyway, so I connected one of the problem accounts to Google. I can now handle those emails online at Gmail, but I like the Thunderbird interface better. I had hopes that running this addy through Gmail would magically make Thunderbird work again (since Thunderbird wasn't having any problems with my @gmail addresses), but no luck.
    On top of all this, when I get fed up with Thunderbird and close it ... the program won't open again unless I restart my laptop.
    Any ideas?

    Just to add, you can also try:Main Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Email > Clear Data > You will likely need to setup the email again after doing this. What are your thoughts about this forum? Let us know by doing this short survey.

    Did you transfer the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder?
    Or did you only transfer /Muisic/iTunes/iTunes media? folder?

    On a new computer, am trying to download/install photoshop elements 10, files are downloaded, but cannot open them, please try to explain       if you can

    you probably should have two files, an exe and a 7z file in the same directory.  if so, click (or double click) the exe.
    if that fails, what files(s) (name and extension) and file size(s) have you downloaded?
