Installing CS6 on Windows 7 64bit?

Hi all, I just wanted to confirm with an Adobe staff member that I should have no problems with installing CS6 Design & Web Premium on Windows 7 64bit OS (HP Core i5). We are having our computers upgraded in the office from Windows XP and our tech supplier would feel more comfortable buying the new machines if he had assurance that the software will be compatible. A few questions here:
System requirements says Service Pack 1 for Windows 7 on the back of the box, is this something he has to take special note of?
It says 3 installations are allowed. Will this new PC count as my second installation? Or can I transfer my first installation from my old PC somehow?
I'm not sure what the difference is between 32bit and 64bit. Will I be able to open my old CS files from Windows XP on Windows 7 without any problems?
Many thanks for the help!

Hi adobeuser1985,
1. Yes you need to install SP1 on Windows 7 as it is the tested environment for CS6 Design and Web Premium
2. Yes this PC will be counted as 2nd unless you deactivate the first. It's always recommended to deactivate the software first before upgrading the OS or installiang the software on anew computer else it will increase the activation count.
Once you deactivate the software, and install it on a new PC, the install will then be still referred as 1st installation.
Please check : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html
3. Some software's of the Suite such as Indesign CS6 and Illustrator CS6 require 64 Bit OS and so will not run on 32 Bit PC
The terms 32-bit and 64-bit refer to the way a computer's processor (also called a CPU), handles information. The 64-bit version of Windows handles large amounts of random access memory (RAM) more effectively than a 32-bit system.
Let me know if you have any more queries.
Regards,
Rave

I am looking for the exact same information! Someone, help? I didn't realize when I gave them so much money that Adobe has the customer support of a snake with its tail in its mouth...

How do I install CS6 with Windows 8?

How do I install CS6 design and web premium on my Dell desktop running Windows 8 after I've downloaded it?

And what specifically? If you have issues, you need to explain better. Otherwise running the extractor executable should work just fine.

What happens if you attempt to install CS6 on Windows Vista?

On this page http://blogs.adobe.com/photoshopdotcom/2012/03/photoshop-cs6-operating-system-support-and- beyond.html?PID=2159997 it says:
"We will, however, be dropping official support for Windows Vista (Please note: although Windows Vista is not officially supported, we do not restrict users from installing and using Photoshop CS6 on their Vista Systems)"
Could someone please clarify exactly what this means, in practical terms, if I attempt to install CS6 on my mother's computer which is running Vista? Thanks for your help.

Means Adobe has not written code nor tested Photoshop CS6 in Vista.
You're free to try it on Vista but there's no guarantee that it'll work.
Some have done so with no issues. Others say they get funky behaviour sometimes.
In short, you're on your own with any issues and Adobe will not officially support that configuration - although the user-to-user forums may try.

Problem installing CS6 on windows 7 64 bit

Hi,
Was wondering if anyone might be able to advise.
We`ve had an admin image of CS6 that we've been deploying for quite sometime here now, from the network
Unfortunately I have found very recently that this stopped working.
It seems that the install is falling over installing Flash CS6.
The install log ends with
Calling the custom action code for pre-install for payload {4FAB339E-2132-434F-9376-9CD735E4C69C} Adobe Flash CS6 12.0.0.0

Some of the products have installed on the machine, Bridge, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Illustrator, but Flash and Photohsop are missing.
Any ideas as to what might be going on.

Error Installing CS6 in Windows 8.1

U just purchased CS6 Design and Web Premium. When istalling I received message indicating the installation failed. Created a log and a screen. I have windows 8.1

An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,type="win32",version="8.0.50727.6195",publicKeyToken="1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86"'. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x80071A30
These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 80071A30, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?)

How do I fix "OS requirements not met" error message when installing CS6 on Windows 8.1?

Hello,
I am trying to install Design Standard CS6 on a Windows 8.1 Machine 64 bit (Toshiba Click-2 Pro, i7, 8 GB RAM, 1920 x 1080 resolution)
I get Warning DW066 and DW065, saying "OS Requirements not met" and "Display Requirements not met" for various things related to Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign CS6 but I don't believe this is true.
Acrobat Professional simply has ERROR DW050 - install failed, and doesn't show up at all.

Dear Jeff - Thanks for that - I had seen those notes on the adobe help site, but, the instructions given don't seem to apply exactly to Windows 8.1 as when I looked them up, I couldn't find the network path specified in the help document you reference:
Windows 32 bit (XP, Vista, 7): \Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\
Windows 64 bit (XP, Vista, 7): \Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\
because on my windows 8.1 machine, in the "Adobe" folder there was no "installer" folder.
Since I wasn't sure how to find the error log, My first "Troubleshooting" move was to de-install the program (Adobe Design Standard CS6) and then re-download the file from the adobe site here: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html
However, at the moment, the problem seems to be ok, so I guess that perhaps that fixed the problem? Fingers crossed!
For future reference (or in case someone else is looking at this posting with a similar issue?) do you know how to find the error log on an installation on Windows 8.1? Thanks!

Installing CS6 on Windows 8,

Hi, I just bought InDesign CS6, and want to install it on my computer with Windows 8, but nothing happens when I put in the DVD-rom... Is CS6 not compatible with Win8?

Yes Summerbird it should work just fine. In fact we just release the following document for Windows 8.1 - OS Compatibility and FAQs for Windows 8.1 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/windows-8-1-compatability.html.
If you are able to see the drive and not the disc then you may want to try a different CD or DVD. If the problem persists then you will want to work with your manufacturer.
Also if you need it you can download the CS6 installers from http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/cs6-product-downloads.html.

Issue installing CS6 on windows 8

I recently bought a new HP laptop with windows 8 and am trying to move CS6 student edition over to the new computer. I deactivated the program on the old computer and have downloaded CS6 on the new one. When I try to finish the set-up, I get the message "Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to a missing file." I then used Support Advisor and got the message "cpsid_82829s5: Missing installation file, bootstrapper error has occured." I then downloaded Application Manager 7.0 and got the message "Installer failed to initialize" and got the same bootstrapper message. I am beyond frustrated. Any suggestions??

Hi painter2013,
Welcome to the Community,
Try the steps mentioned below:
1) Please run the Application manager as an administrator and see if that resolves the issue, if you still faces the problem then enable the hidden admin. Check it here http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-administrator-account-on-wi ndows-vista/
2) Try to remove Adobe application manager via Adobe cleaner tool http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html and redownload in hidden admin.
3) Try to launch Adobe application manager and then start the setup. If that also doesn't resolve then the next step would be to review the PDApp.log if your installer is failing to initialize. You can find details on how to review this in Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5 -cs5.html#main_Analyze_the_Creative_Suite_5_PDapp_log.
Thanks!

Having problem installing CS6 on Windows 7

I have just purchased a new windows 7 professional machine and want to load my stand alone Photoshop CS6 - when loading it is asking me to choose a product from a drop down menu however CS6 is not a choice, how do I load my CS6 on my new machine?

You have downloaded an upgrade installer/ used an upgrade serial number. Either download the correct full installer or find a serial number from a previous product you supposedly would have bought back then.
