Installing Master Collection on CS3--Adobe Updater.exe file says its open

I have CS3 Design Premium and have bought Master Collection. I am trying to install on Vista 32-bit Windows.  I put in disk 1 and screen says the Adobe Updater.exe needs to be closed.  IT IS NOT OPEN!     
I really don't want to wait until Monay when they open.  Does anyone know what to do?

Open task manager and see if you can find it under the process list (not applications) and turn it off.

  • I lost my CS5 Master Collection CD & my Set-up.exe File is Corrupted [ SOS ]

    This is just getting beyond ridiculous...
    AND I can see from several forum threads I am not alone in this issue.
    Adobe, you absolutely SUCK for making it so difficult to install this software. I am normally a fan of Adobe products, but now that you guys have bought out all your competiton you are getting lazy and stupid.
    This is the most ridiculous crap I've ever seen when trying to install a product I PURCHASED!!!!!!!
    So, after over another week (I have been trying to find a way to install Acrobat with my purchased copy of the Master Suite for MONTHS)...  My IT guy finally gets me the installer DMG for Acrobat and now I cannot install it with my master collection because the serial numbers are not the same?
    I never got a god damn serial number for Acrobat Pro when purchasing the master collection.
    Asking Adobe for help is totally worthless and not even worth taking the time to do so because all they give you is some BS pre-recorded response that doesn't help you with JACK...
    It has been a long time since I've had a problem installing a piece of software I PURCHASED.
    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    YOU SERIOUSLY SUCK ADOBE ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Installing Master Collection CS6

    I am trying to install Master Collection CS6 from a netowrk install, each attempt ends with only four programs beening installed: Photoshop, extension manager, extendscript toolkit and bridge. I have been told that there is something that is blocking the complete install, but no one knows what it that is blocking the install. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi jamsallen,
    Please try copying the entire CS6 Master Collection setup on your local hard drive and then try installing it. It should work.
    Regards,

  • Installing Master collections cs 5.5, the Photoshop failed to install twice and why?

    installing Master collections cs 5.5, the Photoshop failed to install twice and why?

    You need to tell us more about your system. We don't even know what operating system you are using, so this is slightly pointless... Also have a look at the install logs and pick out the information we may need.

  • Boot Camp Question .... I just bought a 2013 late model Mac Book Pro Retina and am wondering if it is worth installing windows through boot camp. If I install the windows component in order to run an exe file and its component "Declans Korean Flash Cards"

    I just bought a 2013 late model Mac Book Pro Retina and am wondering if it is worth installing windows through boot camp.
    If I install the windows component in order to run an exe file and its component "Declans Korean Flash Cards"... will it make my mac suseptible to viruses overall due to having a windows component? also will it make my mac slower as well

    If you are only going to use one or two window only programs then I wouldn't waste the space.  Try WinonX it allows you to install exe. Files on Mac without installing windows.

    i have a HP laptop, when i try to do certain things that require flash player it tells me i need to install the latest version so when i try it says its already installed. i have tried all the trouble shooting suggestions and it stll isnt working. I even checked the activex filtering and that doesn't seem to be the problem.

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

  • .EXE Files Cant Be Opened. Please Help

    My ExE Files cant be opened! It says there isn't any application to open the exe files. Anybody help?

    If a file has the suffix '.exe', it is very likely a program written for the Microsoft MS-DOS or Microsoft Windows operating systems. The suffix '.exe' is used as a mnemonic for 'executable file'.
    Software for one operating system generally don't operate in other operating systems. This is because of fundamental differences in the features and mechanisms available to programs to get them to work.
    That isn't to say that you cannot obtain software for the Mac OS X operating system that will permit you to run this software. There are at least 5 different solutions available to users of Macs with Intel-branded processors: Boot Camp, Parallels, VMWare Fusion, CrossOver Mac, and WINE.
    The first three require a licensed version of Microsoft Windows XP (a couple also support Vista) operating system, and the last two do not. Boot Camp permits you to divide your hard disk into a Windows section, and a Mac OS X section, then install Windows. When you turn on the computer, you are presented with a menu asking which operating system you want to use -- but you can use only one at a time.
    Parallels and VMWare fusion are virtual machines. They are software applications that create a second computer completely within the application into which you can install another operating system like Windows. It has the advantage that it runs in Mac OS X and you can basically use both operating systems at the same time. The cost is a modest performance hit, and the fact that the application necessarily uses quite a bit of memory -- leaving less for other applications. Parallels has a slick feature that hides the Windows desktop, allowing the Windows application to appear just like it were a Mac app.
    The free and open source WINE, and it's commercial off-shoot, CrossOver Mac, use a third approach. They provide utilities that will translate between the Windows application's instructions (system calls) and those of the Mac OS X operating system (WINE also works on other UNIX and UNIX-like operating systems). An program run this way is more or less running as a Mac program and performance is exceptionally good. The caveat is that not all of the features and resources of the Windows operating system are equally well developed and some programs will exhibit bugs, and others may not run at all with this method.

  • Please Help! Received an error message in Adobe Muse stating file cannot be opened.

    I am worried my Adobe Muse file is long gone. Adobe Muse crashed on me in the middle of designing a website. I tried to re-open the file and it states This Adobe Muse site file cannot be opened. no records in main.active table. I am not sure what to do. Pleae help!!

    Next to the file you were attempting to Save As to when the crash occurred, you should find a file with the same name but ending in "renamed" plus some numbers. Delete the unopenable flie and change the name of the "renamed" file to be the original file name with a .muse file extension. You should find it's the original file you had opened.
    Are you working with the .muse file stored on a file server? Or is it on a local drive?
