Installing Creative Suite 5.5 to D drive in Windows 8

Is this possible? Every time I switch to the D drive from the C drive I get a message saying "Unable to install to chosen location".
Is there some workaround? I'm installing onto a Surface with a 64GB C drive and would really like to install it to my microSD card serving as my D drive to save space on the main drive. I was able to install MS Office onto the microSD card, but CS is balking at it.

No. Adobe apps cannot be installed to removable media due to the requirements of the activation system.

  • Can't install creative suite 5.5

    I can't install Creative Suite 5.5 on a PC running Windows 7.  Have tried twice but keep getting "Your installation encountered errors".  The most recent time shows 2 error messages:
    ERROR: DS011: No media information provided for removable source location
    ERROR: DW013: Cannot initialize payload session
    Any suggestions?

    OK, I figured out how to get the install log - on my latest (3rd) attempt to install (and between each time powering down and back on again before trying to install again), I got the same 2 errors messages as indicated in my original post.  The Install Log is as follows:

  • Installing Creative Suite 6 on a second computer despite not having a disc drive

    Hello,
    I was wondering if I would be able to install Creative Suite 6 on a second computer despite only having the disc and not having a disc drive. To elaborate, I purchased Creative Suite 6 with the disc to utilize with my iMac this past year. It worked correctly, as expected, since I have the capable disc drive. Now, the problem arises as I'm looking to purchase a MacBook Pro to take my designs mobile, but the MacBook Pro's no longer come equipped with CD/DVD drives. So my question is: is there a way I would be able to utilize my serial number or something of the sort to download my Creative Suite 6 onto my second computer, the MacBook Pro? Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you for your time,
    Adam

  • Install problem when installing Creative Suite 6 Master collection?

    Has anybody had this problem when installing Creative suite 6 Master Collection? It says: The product you are trying to install in not an Adobe Genuine Software and appears to be counterfeit. I have received the product directly from Adobe. It will validate it then start to install then stop and give me the above error. Help.

    If you are still experiencing difficulties please try copying the install files from the DVD to your desktop and try installing from there.  The error still indicates that the installation files have become compromised.  If you are installing from the DVD this could indicate either a problem with the media or your optical drive.

  • Problems installing Creative Suite CS4?

    I had to have a new hard drive fitted on my intel iMac. When I tried to install Creative Suite Design Premium CS4 I had the usual problem of the installer hanging up at 90%.
    I have spent several hours with Adobe Support trying to resolve the problem. Even they do not seem to be able to find a solution?  At the moment I have a clean instillation of Snow Leopard 10.6.I have not downloaded any updates or installed any other programmes and am still the same problem.
    Does any one have a solution?

    Running the installer through command line may solve your problem. For the steps please refer to solution#3 of the following kb article -

    You don't. You only need to input the serial. Your other issues need further explanation and possibly the install logs.  You failed to provide any relevant info whatsoever.

  • I recently got a new HP PC 500-267c/64 bit Windows 7 computer. I installed Creative Suites CS5 and I cannot scan into Photoshop? It says I need the Twain Plug In. How do I get it?

    I have a new HP PC 500-267c/ Windows 7/64 bit c omputer. I installed Creative Suites CS5 and I cannot scan into Photoshop.
    It says I need the Plug In Twain to scan into Photoshop and can download it but nothing else. How and where
    do I find the download?

    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/twain-plug-photoshop-cs4-cs5.html#main_Photoshop_CS5_a nd_TWAIN
    There's no 64 bit TWAIN so you need to use the 32-bit version of Photoshop. Personally I'd recommend that you use the scanner software as a standalone application and forget TWAIN, which is rapidly becoming obsolete and more or less abandoned everywhere. All it does is call up the very same scanner software, only from within the PS UI, and tying up Photoshop in the process.

    I am sorry Erickkasner but there is no longer direct support provided for Creative Suite 5.5 installation issues.
    You are welcome to post any specific errors you are able to discover within your installation log to this discussion.  Since you are using Windows then Exit Code 15 could mean one of the following:
    Installer database is corrupted
    Update pending to your operating system
    Improper permissions set for the Media.db
    The installation log file should provide additional insight into the exact error you are experiencing.  Please make sure to use the find command to look for the words 'ERROR' and 'FATAL' to locate the relevant error messages.

  • How to install creative suite 4 on windows 8.1?

    I have a new Windows 8.1 laptop and am trying to install Creative Suite 4 on it.     I was able to do this on another laptop with 8.1, but that was over a year ago.   When I tried installing to the new computer from the CD, I got a message that "the Installer database is corrupt."   I contacted Adobe Support, and per their instructions I downloaded the "ADBESTDSCS4_LS1.7z" and "ADBESTDSCS4_LS1" files from the Download CS4 products page.   I clicked the applications file, and it created a  "Adobe CS4\Design Premium\Adobe CS4" directory under my desktop.  However, when I click the setup file, I get the same message - "the Installer database is corrupt."   I contact support again, and they told me that CS4 doesn't work with W8.1 - which is nonsense because it installed just fine on my W8.1 ultrabook.   So - what are the steps for installing CS4 on Windows 8.1, and how do I deal with the "installer database is corrupt" issue?   Thanks!

    I found the solution.  I did some research and found references to deleting the caps.db files under older versions of Windows.   I did find a caps.db file under C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Backup.   I deleted the file, and then right-clicked the setup file and used "Run as Administrator" (didn't do that the first time),    Everything installed fine, except for an error message with Adobe Flash CS4.   But so far, the programs seem to work fine.   BTW, Adobe Reader 11, Photoshop Elements 11, and Premier 11 came preinstalled with my computer), which may have created some conflicts.
    For what it's worth, Adobe's own website indicates that there are no known issues with Windows 8.1 for CS4 (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/windows-8-1-compatability.html).
