Install downloaded software other than on C: drive

I purchased this morning and downloaded the latest 64 bit version of Elements and Premiere to my E: drive (C: drive has Windows Ultimate 7 64 bit only).
I have six files downloaded - one Application file and 7zArchive file set each for Photoshop Elements, Premier Elements and Premiere Elements Content.
When I ran the Application file for PSE it installed OK - mostly on the E: drive where I directed the install browser - but also put a large number of files on my C: drive under a Program Data directory.
When I run the Premiere Elements Application file it will not install and produces an error message along the lines of 'insufficient space or admin rights'.
I am guessing that as there is now only 3GB free on the C: drive this is why I am getting the failed install (I have the admin rights).
So how can I install the whole - or majority of files - on the E: drive where there is 83GB free?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply.
That was what I feared.
Might have been helpful for Adobe to publish exactly what space - and where is required - in a pre-download checklist.
I can't think of any other software we have - other than the operating system - which HAS to be on the C: drive.

  • Can you install CS5 anywhere other than the C Drive?

    I already have CS5 successfully installed on my computer and it works perfectly.
    The problem I have is that I'm running out of space on my C drive. (Currently 864 MB Free of 64.2 GB).
    After a quick look at the stuff I have on this drive, it seem's to make sense to me to move Photoshop to a different drive, and regain over 10 GB of space back instantly.  I already have a dedicated Photoshop drive on my computer (H:) which contains all my Fonts, Actions, Brushes etc. It would be awesome if I could install it there instead.
    However, where computers are concerned, I know that nothing is ever as simple as it seem's.
    Could someone let me know what sort of problem's I could expect from doing this, or even if it is possible to do.
    Just out of interest, I started the CS5 installer earlier today whilst still having Photoshop installed just to see if it was something it would let me do. (I have no intention of uninstalling Photoshop from my C drive until I know if it's doable).
    As you can see from the image above it shows that I already have Photoshop installed and it shows the location (Highlighted for you in Yellow).
    I have tried to change the drive letter to H: but I cannot change the text within that box.  I was wondering if that location only relates to the already existing copy of Photoshop. And therefore I would need to uninstall the existing copy before I can change this. Or will that location always be C:\Program Files\Adobe regardless.
    In short, Is it possible to install CS5 to a drive other than C: without there being any problems?
    Also is it possible to install 2 copies of CS5 onto 2 different drives? So I can test the new one before finally getting rid of the old one.
    Any help or advice will be gratefully received.

    You would, of course, have to uninstall the current copy before installing Photoshop in a different place.
    You can only install one copy of the same version at one time on the same PC.
    You're not going to be able to install it in another place just to see if all went well before uninstalling it from drive C:.
    And yes, choosing an alternate drive and location into that field with the little folder icon during an install will allow you to install Photoshop on another drive.  That allows you to keep the better part of a gigabyte of software off the C: drive.
    Keep in mind that there are a number of things (e.g., Adobe common software) that will still and only install on drive C: however, and there's nothing you can do to change those locations.

    Go to Solution.

    Your phone is only developer unlocked if you have paid to have it unlocked. Even when it is unlocked it can still only run apps that are designed to work on that phone and software.

  • Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

    Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

    Hello there,
    Welcome to Adobe Community. Yes it can be installed on a different drive. Though some of the files installed by it will still be installed on C: drive.
    When you run the installer, use 'Change destination folder' at the bottom of the panel
    If you already have Adobe Reader installed on the C: drive, you must uninstall it before installing a new version on a different location.
    Thanks!

  • Prevent Adobe application manager  auto install downloaded software

    I used Adobe application manager to download a trial version of photoshop cs6, but I need to install it at another time. Adobe application manager instead installs photoshop immediately.
    How Can I prevent Adobe application manager to install downloaded software automatically?

    You can only download a trial once, so you need to download it when you can use it.

  • When trying to install downloaded software I am prompted to connect to the internet but I already am connected and the software will not install.

    When trying to install downloaded software I am prompted to connect to the internet but I am already connected. This also occurs when trying to install an Adobe update.

    A cable modem always needs a complete reset whenever you change the device that it is connected to.
    To get your Internet signal restored, it will require at least one major step including the reset of your modem and complete network power cycle.
    If that is not successful, the second major step is to reset the AirPort Extrreme back to factory defaults and then combine the steps above again.
    Try this first:
    Push the reset button on the cable modem (if present) and pull the internal batter (if easily accessible)  then power off the modem
    Power off everything else on your network....all devices....order is not important
    Wait at least 20 minutes...longer will not hurt
    Make sure that the Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the WAN port (circle of dots or world icon) on the AirPort Extreme
    Re-install the modem battery if it was pulled in the step above
    Power up the modem and let it run for 4-5 minutes by itself
    Power up the AirPort Extreme and let it run for 4-5 minutes
    Power up each other network device one at a time about a minute apart until everything is powered back up
    Check the network for proper operation

  • Installing downloaded software updates

    I'm having a bit of an epic trying to install downloaded software updates. My internet connection is via a USB dongle in a very poor signal area. I downloaded the updates for OS X 10.5.4 and it took me about 36 hours for the download alone. When I tried to install them I got a 'Software Update' box with a bar that was supposedly to fill in with blue shading. Only a tiny bit of the bar filled in and it remained like that for 8 hours the first time I tried and 12 hours the second time. On both occasions text above the bar said 'Installing 3 (or whatever) items' and text below the bar said 'Configuring Installation'. Nothing else happened, for hours. Eventually I simply switched off. I assume I have the software updates on my mac but just can't install them. How can I install them? And if I can't install them are they available to buy on disc? Or should I sell up and move to the city to live in broadband heaven? As you can see, it is all a bit time consuming and I'm not that literate in this sort of thing.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks Klaus1. I phoned an Apple store and they would only update my iMac if I brought it in but that would be a massive round trip for me (probably 9 hours). I then phoned AppleCare and they bluntly said that they could not send me a disc with the updates. Not good enough. There won't be too many mac users in the UK in the same situation as me so it wouldn't be too costly for Apple to post out updates to mac users who can prove their remoteness (postcodes, for example, could be used). Effectively what Apple seem to be saying is that if you can't access a strong signal then you will be disadvantaged and we will do nothing to help. Like I said, not good enough.
    I'll sort it out in the end but I did expect more from AppleCare. I would happily pay them but even that made no impression on them.
    Thanks again.

  • Using other software other than i tunes?

    Can i use other software other than itunes?. If so ,do i need to use the updator before connecting and synching with other software such as windows media player?.

    Yes, you can. But Windows Media Player cannot be used.
    Some of the programs you can use are:
    (1) Winamp (with iPod plugin)
    (2) Xplay
    (3) Anapod
    Note that these are 3rd party programs which are not supported by Apple. If you elect to use them, you will have to ask the software developers for support.
    By the way, why do you want to use another software rather than iTunes?

  • How to install Creative Cloud on any drive other than my System drive...

    You are now chatting with 'Bhagawan'
    Bhagawan: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
    Bhagawan: Hi Steve
    Steve: It appears CC installs on my system drive without asking me. The way I manage my system - this is not acceptable. So, how do I install on the drive I install all my other apps?
    Bhagawan: I understand that you want to install Creative Cloud desktop app. Am I correct?
    Steve: On a particular drive - not my system drive.
    Steve: CC, Photoshop, etc.
    Bhagawan: I will be glad to check and help you with this issue.
    Bhagawan: Steve, creative cloud desktop app can be install only on C drive, but other apps you select for other drive.
    Steve: My C: drive is dedicated to my OS only.
    Steve: It is a special drive that will not work for very long if software companies put their programs on it till it fills up and then everything stops.
    Steve: Didn't Adobe think of this?
    Steve: I have one computer that only has a few MBs left of C:. What do I do on that computer?
    Steve: "left on C:"
    Bhagawan: Give me a minute.
    Bhagawan: Thank you.
    Bhagawan: Steve, I'm really sorry, creative cloud desktop app will be installed on C Drive, since the operating system is installed, but other Creative Cloud apps can be installed other Drive and depends on file size.

    I had the same problem and finally solved it.
    It is "funny" that CC doesn't ask you where to install apps. Or better to say, it asks you but doesn't care. In Creative Cloud desktop app/Preferences there is option to choose where you want apps to be installed, but they are still installed in C:/Program Files/....
    How to install apps on secondary drive in just 3 steps:
    1. Go to page Adobe CC 2014 Direct Download Links – Creative Cloud 2014 Release | ProDesignTools and download all apps that you will need.
    2. Once downloaded, install it. During installation you will be asked where you want app to be installed (just like in any other "normal" installation)
    3. Be happy
    Hope I helped

  • How to download software w/o a disc drive

    I  was given Adobe Photoshop Llightroom 5 when I purchased a new camera. My laptop doesn't have a disk drive.  
    1. Can I install the software on my old laptop with a disk drive, then transfer the software to my new laptop?
    2. Could I download the software straight from the Internet?  I only have a CD and serial number, that's it.

    I don't know anything about the Mac, but Windows computers need to have the program installed because there are registry entries and other special system files that need to be installed in specific locations. Here is the link that will enable you to download the last update of Lightroom 5 that included all updates to that version:
    Product updates
    You will be able to run the installer after it is downloaded. And you will need the serial number that you are given. Just to clarify, that number has 24 digits and the first four are 1160.
