InDesign Trial Download Crashing Computer?

Ever since I downloaded the trial version, my computer started freezing and making a loud beep--like an alarm. Other times I get an error message "PageMaker needs to close because it encountered an error"....I also get that same error msg for Internet Explorer, Photoshop, even Outlook.
I uninstalled InDesign but am still having these issues. Do you think this is related or a completely separate problem? Thank you!

If it's happening after a system restore, that pretty much eliminates the trial as the cause. If the machine is actually running, and not blue screening, I'd be more inclined to look at memory than the processor (though it could be a chip cooler problem), but I won't second guess your IT people.

  • InDesign Trial Download Error

    I receive this error message when I open the Install Adobe Download Assistant while trying to install the InDesign trial.  My operating system is Mac OSX Version 10.7.5.

    Hi cpaga46,
    Please remove your current installation of the Adobe Download Assistant and reinstall.  You can find more details under the Known Issues section of Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assista nt.html#main_Known_issues.
    Alternatively you can try downloading from the direct download links available at : http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
    But make sure you follow the important steps mentioned on the page before initiating the download.

  • InDesign Trial download does not recognise me as an Administrator

    I am logged in as an Administrator and am trying to download the InDesign trial.  Having got to the end of the download, it announces that I need to be logged on as an Administrator, which I am, but only offers 'Quit' as an option.  I can't see how to resolve this and would appreciate any advice.

    It shouldn't matter, but try logging in with the actual Administrator account for the machine.

  • Indesign Trial Download says Not Authentic

    Hello.  I have tried downloading the InDesign Trial App and upon downloading, an Adobe message says it is not authentic and the download process ends.  I have tried several times and the last time my anti-virus blocked something.  What's up with this?

    I take that back.....I was downloading the paid version and all was working....now I just got via the Adobe Application Manager
    "Adobe Genuine Software Validation Failure.  The product you are trying to install is not an Adobe Genuine Software and appears to be counterfeit"
    Awesome......
    I downloaded it from here:

  • InDesign trial download?

    While Adobe says that InDesign is available to download with a 30 day trial, they have cleverly designed the website so as to make it impossible to find. Does anyone have a link? I don't particularly care whether it is CS3 or CS4, but I do care that I get the software today. Please help.
    Mark

    Thanks a freaking bunch, Adobe. I have a class tomorrow on InDesign for which it was recommended that we wait until the last minute to download and install ID. So you are telling me I get to watch rather than participate because Adobe has made it impossible to do a trial? This blows. Thousands of people done precisely what I want to do, and thousands more will do it once Adobe gets its act together. But in the meantime, I've paid for a class that I will not be able to actively learn from, and so I am now much less likely to pony up the $700 since my ability to evaluate the software has been drastically curtailed. I use Photoshop daily and I teach Lightroom. I really love Adobe products, but when they conduct their business in a way that hoses me it really pisses me off.

  • Trial Download of Indesign CS 5.5 fails at less than a minute remaining

    I have tried downloading the trial version of InDesign CS 5.5 on two different Macs, both eventually fail/hang when the message in the Adobe Download Assistant is "Downloading xxx MB - less than a minute".  This message  remains indefinitely.  No log file that I can find indicates any progress, and the downloaded file is *larger* than the size indicated in the "Downloading xxx mb message".
    In both cases, the computers are running OS 10.6 and the destination for the download is the users Downloads directory.  In one case, the user is an administrator of the computer, in the other it is not.  In both cases there are previous licensed versions of Adobe creative suite products installed (CS5).
    Please provide a solution or a direct download link.

    Follow Solution 1 from the below link.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assistant.html
    Please try the following steps:
    1) Visit Adobe.com product download page http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=indesign
    2) Click the "Download Now" button
    Adobe Download Assistant will launch on your desktop, and after you sign-in (it does not remember the credential intentionally), you will be prompted for a location to save the product and download will start.
    If you are already on an Adobe.com product trial download page (step 1), simply refresh it, and then click the "Download Now" button.

    Hi Manou,
    Please try the following steps:
    Windows:
    Please go to C:\Users\(your own user)\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE and rename opm.db file.
    MAC:
    /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE and rename opm.db
    Once you do that then it should ask you to sign in using a different e-mail address.

  • No time to download whole Master Suite trial - only want InDesign trial!

    The trial of the full CS6 Master Suite takes too long to download and I only want one part of it: InDesign.  How can I just download that trial version?

    Thanks for the help   However, that's the page I was accessing and it is downloading the full master suite from there, not just InDesign (via Download Assistant).  It estimates approx 36 more hours and I cannot afford even half that!  There doesn't seem to be any option to choose which elements you wish to download.  Any other ideas?

    It is not safe to publish your email address in an open forum, so I've asked the hosts to remove them. Your post is here for anyone to see and if someone has a solution, they will post an answer, so there is no need for an email address.

    What means "crashed", and "won't let me"?
    Anyway, download it from http://www.adobe.com/downloads.html
    Usually I would recommend to download the direct downloads from http://prodesigntools.com/tag/ddl, but it seems the site is currently down.
