Installing problem - need help

New to this forum - hoping someone can help - I downloaded Adobe Creative Suite 6 in "stops and starts" over a period of 20 hours as I had to sleep, go to work, etc - but it seemed to pick it up where it left off when I fingered the pad to "wake it up" and managed to finish the whole download. Everything went fine - accepted codes, etc - and installed. But an "exit summary" said that installation had failed for Illustrator and Photoshop, and, indeed, Illustrator and Photoshop are not here to use . . .  now what do I do? Was the download the problem? do I need to "uninstall" everything and start over?

no, click on the program so the application manager opens.
it should look something like this:

  • Zen Micro problem need help

    Today i was listening to music and my zen micro just froze while playing and no buttons could be pressed and the lock button wasnt on. So i took the battery out and rebooted the player but it froze at the creative screen. I went home and i went to recovery mode and tried to reload the firmware but it said erasing firmware for more than 2 hours. So then i tried a format but it said formating for the same amount of time. I need help please. Also, recently i've had problems witht the headphone jack. When ever i would stick it in it would sound distorted and i would have to move it around until i got it to a certain spot to hear it good again. If anyone else has this problem please tell me. One more thing i had returned my other micro zen in for hard dri've probems and this was my new one do u think if i have to return in (hopefully not) that they would accept it.

    If the functions in Rescue Mode aren't working properly then you need to contact Creative Support.

  • Another Infinite Login Loop Problem - need help badly

    Hello. I need help.
    When I start up my iMac (24 inch last generation model) I can't log into the OS. When I enter my password I see the default OS wallpaper (nothing else) then it kicks me to a blue screen then right back to the login. Same thing over and over. I've already ran disk utility off of the install CD to repair permissions, etc... but no luck. This even happens when I enter into safe mode. I'm running the latest version of the OS.
    Can anyone help me?

    Restore the bootable backup/clone or Time Machine backup. Without one, you have a difficult situation. First thing to try is boot with your install disc, run Disk Utility, and repair the disk.

  • Still stuck with the same old producer consumer weight problem need help

    Hello All,
    This is the problem I am stuck with right now.
    I have two array lists one producer array list and one consumer array list denoted by a and b
    P1 P2 P3 P4 P5
    5 6 7 8 9
    C1 C2 C3 C4 C5
    2 3 4 5 6
    Now we find all those producer consumer pairs which satisfy the criteria Pi>=Ci
    We have the following sets
    (5,2)(6,2)(7,2),(8,2),(9,2)
    (5,3)(6,3)(7,3),(8,3),(9,3)
    (5,4)(6,4)(7,4),(8,4),(9,4)
    (5,5)(6,5)(7,5),(8,5),(9,5)
    (6,6)(7,6)(8,6),(9,6)
    Let us done each of them with Si
    so we have S1,S2,S3,S4,S5
    we assign a third parameter called weight to each element in Si which has satisfied the condition Pi>=Ci;
    so we we will have
    (5,2,ai),(6,2,bi),(7,2,ci)....etc for S1
    similarly for S2 and so on.
    We need to find in each set Si the the pair which has the smallest weight.
    if we have (5,2,3) and (6,2,4) then 5,2,3 should be chosen.We should make sure that there is only one pair in every set which is finally chosen on the basis of weight.
    Suppose we get a pair (5,2,3) in S1 and (5,2,3) in S2 we should see that (5,2,3) is not used to compare to compare with any other elements in the same set S2,
    Finally we should arrive at the best element pair in each set.They should be non repeating in other sets.
    Given a problem
    P0 P1 P2 P3 P4
    9 5 2 2 8
    6 5 4 5 3
    C0 C1 C2 C3 C4
    we have So as (P0,C0) and (P4,C0)
    assuming that the one with the smaller index has lesser weight PO is selected.In the program I have used random weights.from set S1 we select the pair PO,CO
    S1 =(P0,C1),(P1,C1) and (P4,C1)
    since P0 and P4 are already used in previous set we dont use them for checking in S1 so we have (P1,C1) as best.
    S2=(P0,C2),(P1,C2) and (P4,C2) so we dont use P0,C2 and P1 and C2 because PO and P1 are already used in S1.
    So we choose P4,C2
    in S3 and S4 ae have (P0,C3),(P1,C3),(P4,C3) so we dont choose anything
    and same in S4 also.
    So answer is
    (P0,C0),(P1,C1) and (P4,C2).
    My program is trying to assign weights and I am trying to print the weights along with the sets.It doesnt work fine.I need help to write this program to do this.
    Thanks.
    Regards.

    In your example you selected the pair with the greatest
    distance from the first set, and the pair with the least
    distance from the second. I don't see how the distance
    function was used.
    Also it's not clear to me that there is always a solution,
    and, if there is, whether consistently choosing the
    furthest or the closest pairs will always work.
    The most obvious approach is to systematically try
    all possibilities until the answer is reached, or there
    are no possibilities left. This means backtracking whenever
    a point is reached where you cannot continue. In this case
    backtrack one step and try another possibility at this
    step. After all possible choices of the previous step,
    backtrack one more step and so on.
    This seems rather involved, and it probably is.
    Interestingly, if you know Prolog, it is ridiculously
    easy because Prolog does all the backtracking for you.
    In Java, you can implement the algorithm in much the same
    way as Prolog implementations do it--keep a list of all the
    choice points and work through them until success or there
    are none left.
    If you do know Prolog, you could generate lots of random
    problems and see if there is always a solution.

  • Urgent Problem, need help asap.

    Hello everyone,
    I'm sorry for the alarmist title, but I need help and I need it badly. Just last night, my macbook froze with nothing working. The mouse froze, the interrupt keys didn't work, nothing. I shut down the laptop, and tried to restart. I noticed a clicking sound coming from the lower left hand corner of the macbook. I'm assuming this is the hard drive.
    What happens is that there will be two clicks happening in a rythmic fashion, and after 15 second of booting up, a folder will appear with a question mark on the screen. The only thing I can do is power it down. Can someone please describe what is happening and make suggestions?
    The kicker is that I'm a college student studying in Denmark for the semester. The laptop is my only lifeline to back home. Please, any help is greatly appreciated.
    Matt

    You may have a disk failure or simply corrupted files. If you have a bootable backup that is working, then you can boot from it, erase your hard drive, then restore your backup. If not then do this:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If the drive is OK then you can reinstall OS X:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • Solaris Developer Edition Install / Other (many problems, need help!).

    I've tried installing Solaris on two different desktops (1GB ram, 3-year old processors), one Dell PowerEdge 2650 server (1GB Ram, 2800 MHZ processor), and a brand new, three month old Dell laptop (Pentium Dual-Core, 2 GB RAM).
    The server install appears to have worked fine at first. However.... it will often just freeze up after having been running awhile. I've never seen it do this while I am actively working with it, but if I leave it on overnight, it will always be unresponsive the next morning. Besides the inability to get a monitor output, even a SSH terminal remoted into it will stop taking commands (no error message). This has quite stumped me. It should not be an issue with memory to my knowledge - on a custom install for it, I gave it 14 GB for swap space.
    The two older desktops I tried it on had negative results. The first I don't have to worry about it dying overnight - it does that quite well throughout the day. Basically.... GNOME keeps throwing exceptions throughout the day using the desktop, and I am theorizing the system is not powerful enough to run the operating system.
    The second..... doesn't even get it installed. It can run the latest Ubuntu without problem (what it was running previously), but the install fails on the machine. The first sign of something being wrong is that it hits 69% installation complete in two hours.... then slows to a snail's pace. Two days later, it finishes the install and states that it failed and cannot run in default configuration. Looking over the log from the details button didn't really show me what happened, and it would not load upon reboot.
    The laptop fairs even worse. I select to install "Solaris Express", it does the dot loading screen, prints out "Solaris OS 5.11 Version snv_70b <clipped> Use is subject to license terms.", and then..... stops. It won't go any further in the installation process.
    While this is a great deal to read, I am hoping for help with a best plan of action (ie. I'd be happy if one of the four would work). Basically..... any suggestions on how to solve any of the problems listed above, or any theories as to what the problem might be. Thanks in advance!

  • Installing sata raid problem, need help plz!!!!!!

    i just bought 2 seagate 200G sata hd, and here coms the problem:
    after create an array, the boot screen shows " strip 2+0, 400099m, functional", seems it works, then after "set up is inspecting your hardware configuration", i got
    a black screen for ever!!  
    even lucky to pass this step, boot to xp cd, hit F6 then insert the floppy, and install the 376/378 driver(tryed about 4 different driver), 3 line show on the blue screen" presse Enter to install windows xp, press R for recovery, press F3 to quit" hit Enter, another blue screen says "cant find hard drive, check the cable and power connecter.....", something like that, oh i am soooo pissed off :(.......
    someone plz help, any suggests are welcome!!!
    btw, my system is:

    looks like someone made their homework prior to posting
    the amps on the psu is okay but you didnt supply 5v but that should not be a problem
    Quote
    strip 2+0, 400099m, functional.
    sounds wrong.
    never heard of 2+0.
    do you got any harddrive connected to ide3 ?
    if not then delete all arrays and then create 1 array.
    raid 0 for performance.
    raid 1 for security.
    size 16kb and try again.

  • Nokia Ovi Player License Problem(Need Help Asap)

    Greetings to everyone,
    I am using nokia ovi player to download songs as I have gt the license to do so since i bought an X6 but now after i have restored my laptop i was told to redownload DRM by the ovi player.The problem is it does not want to download DRM as an error comes out that states it is not authorised to use the computer.Can anyhere here help me to solve this problem??
    Thanks

    @teishi: If you have been in contact with the contact centre, and they have confirmed that the device you are using is in fact associated with your account, next step would be for you to delete the "drm folder" on your PC:
    DRM is an acronym for Digital Rights Management, a broad term used to describe a number of techniques for restricting the free use and transfer of digital content. DRM is used in the Nokia Music Store application. Occasionally you may receive an error which specifies a problem with the Digital Rigths Management.
    This problem suggests that the DRM component of Windows is corrupt and is not recognising that you have a license in order to allow you to play, burn or transfer the tracks that you have downloaded.  In order to correct this error message you will need to reset the DRM folder on your PC. This is accomplished by first renaming the folder and then relaunching the track you are having difficulty with. To complete this process first close the Nokia Music application and/or Windows Media player then follow the steps below:
    Double Click on My Computer. 
    Double click on C: The DRM folder in both Windows XP and Vista is hidden by default so you will need to take the following steps to make it visible: 
    Click Start, then Run.
    Type control folders in the box and press Enter.
    In the window that appears, select the View tab. 
    Select Show hidden files and folders. 
    Deselect Hide protected operating system files/folders. 
    Deselect Hide extensions for know file types
    If you are using Windows XP, Browse to C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/DRM for Vista go to C:/ProgramData/Microsoft/Windows/DRM
    Right click on the DRM folder and choose rename.
    Rename the folder to DRMBACKUP [or something similar] Occasionally, attempting to rename this folder will cause an Access Denied error. If this occurs, follow the below steps otherwise continue to step 6. 
    Reset the DRM security component by going to http://go.microsoft.com/FWLink?LinkID=34506 and Clicking upgrade to upgrade the DRM security component Note: If the Upgrade button is greyed out You may need to install the Active -X control by right clicking on the security banner at the top of the windo and choosing Run Active X Control then clicking Run when the security window pops up. 
    Note: When you access this site through Internet Explorer on a Windows Vista-based computer, you may receive a user account control popup message that requires that you enter the administrator password to continue. 
    Note: If you are running Windows Vista x64 and the Upgrade button on the site listed earlier in this step appears dimmed, you will have to start Internet Explorer by using an account on the computer that has Administrative privileges in order to continue. 
    If the DRM protected tracks from Nokia Music Store are now played, your system will perform a security upgrade, which resets all the necessary DRM files. Each track requests a new license when first played. 
    If you are still receiving the error message, the DRM component can be manually installed from http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/crlupdate/en/crlupdate.html (Use Internet Explorer for this link). Once upgraded, try to play your downloaded tracks again. Each track should then request a new license when you first play it and will then play as normal and should be burnable to CD This will download new licenses for your entire library.
    For additional information on DRM visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management
    if this does not help, try to format your memory card and/or mass memory of you phone.
    let me know if it doesn't help!

  • MSI MS-6712 KT4 Motherboard - Xp install problems! Help!

    Ok, I bought the following motherboard kit:
    http://www.savastore.com/products/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=Savastore&product%5Fid=10261462&pid=40
    I had to buy a new psu for it (I'll post the amps later), although this was the psu the shop recommended.
    Anyway, I have been able to install xp pro before and it worked fine for a little while but when I installed a game it all went pair sharped. When I booted the system I was just getting a blinking cursor, it was going through post but not booting to OS.
    So, I figured a re-install... That was a month ago and I'm still trying.
    Somedays it goes through to copying the files and others I can't even get into the setup before I get the BSOD.
    I've had various different messages including:
    PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA
    IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL
    Plus others that I can't remember, but those two are the most common.
    MS and other forums lead me to believe its a ram problem, however the place I bought it from has tested the board and found no faults.
    System Spec:
    As link above plus;
    Seagate 30GB
    IBM/Hitachi 120GB
    nVidia TnT2 32MB Graphics Card
    Creative Labs PC-DVD
    Sony CD-RW
    PSU is 400w but as I said I don't know the amps at the moment.
    I've tried disabled BIOS caching and Shadowing in the BIOS and this seemed to semi-work for a bit but no longer had I got XP installed than I got the BSOD's again.
    I'm really stuck on this one and any help will be brilliant!
    P.S. The D brackets says nothing - 4 green lights.
    And I've tried resetting the CMOS several times with no joy.
    Is it anything to do with the Graphic Card? Perhaps an AGP MSI Graphics Card might be better? I don't really want to spend much more money on it unless I know it's gonna do the job.
    Any help PLEASE!

    I tried installing xp pro with the Graphics Card in each PCI slot. And I also tried it with a really old 4MB ATI Rage PCI graphics card but no joy with any slot. Although I think slot 5 and 6 let me get the furthest, actually copying the xp files before it blue screened again. I haven't tried the ATI Rage in slots 2-6 which I'll give a go this afternoon but I don't think that's gonna make a difference.
    The DVD-ROM is on IDE-1 and jumpered as the master.
    The 30GB HD is on IDE-0 and also jumpered as the master.
    In the BIOS they register as the secondary master and primary master respectively.
    I've got the 30GB HD partitioned into two 15GB with win 98SE on the first and I want to put xp pro on the second but if you guys think this might be causing a bit of a problem, or I'm trying to run before I can walk so to speak, then I can just try to install it on the 120GB HD (which is partitioned into 4 30GB's)?
    Thing is I've only got win 98SE on there cause xp pro won't install. But, even the 98 install is crappy, I have to use the window backup facility to back the system up before I try to install anything (managed to get the Creative Graphics Card s/w installed after about 5 attempts), even the MainBoard drivers, because when the system reboots, 9/10 times it'll come up with a problem with the registry which the computer will sort out but will result in 98 going back to the basic install, no graphics card or mainboard drivers etc. I then need to recovery the system from the backup I made which means I go back to having to install the mainboard drivers again.
    I do remember reading on win update that there is a patch for windows 95/98/ME which delays the O/S shutting down for about 2 seconds on faster machines otherwise the machine will power off before the O/S has finished writting things to the HD. Of course this could be my problem with win 98SE, however, not being able to install the drivers for the LAN, I can't get on the internet to run win update! It's abit of a pickle!
    Anyway, my main concern is the xp pro installation problem. Sorry to ramble on.

  • G5 DVI to VGA Dell Monitor Connection problems, need help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    hello,
    I'm running two dell monitors both of which were connected via DVI to my g5 quad dual dvi. My tv broke and I'm using one of my monitors to connect the cable boxes HDMI input to the dells DVI input, it works great.
    My problem is that i still want to run two monitors from my mac and still be able to switch channel sources from the Dells source button allowing me to switch from TV to Mac. Since I took up the dvi port on one of my monitors to connect to the cable box via HDMI, I have a free DVI cable. I purchased a tiny converter that allowed to change one end of the free DVI cable to VGA. I used this method to connect the cable to my g5's dvi port and the configured end to the VGA port on the monitor with no luck.
    The Dell monitor does not pick up any signal and just goes to sleep as if my computer does not exist. The TV works fine and I'm able to switch sources. Please note that I'm not using the DVI-VGA adaptor that came with my g5 and don't know if this would make a difference. If it does, how do i set this up because this adaptor is like 5 inches long.
    Does the adaptors DVI end need to be connected to the back of the g5 or does the VGA end need to be connected to the monitor or does it not matter. I need a longer dvi-vga cable as well, do they make them. This all depends if the problem actually is that that I'm not using the DVI-VGA cable that came with my mac to connect to the monitor in the first place.
    Can anyone help me out here. I'm using the Dell 2208WFP Ultra Sharp.

    Bad adapter?
    The G5 ports are DVI-I. Any good DVI-I to VGA adapter should be fine.

  • Setup Problem - Need Help Please!!

    My problem is a low hum eminating from my speakers every time I connect my MPC2000 sampler to my audio interface.
    My setup consists of the MPC2000, a Dj Mixer, and my laptop which has an M-Audio interface which I use to connect the mixer & MPC. Basically, as soon as I remove the cables that connect my MPC or my mixer to my interface, the hum stops. I've tried different cables, new cables, a ground adapter for the MPC to change it to 2 prong, and nothing helps. The only thing that DOESN'T cause this hum when plugged into my interface, is my keyboard, so i'm quite sure the interface itself isn't the problem.
    Does anyone know what might be causing this interference that's resulting in a hum? I have exhausted all my own theories and am desperate for some sort of help! Many thanks in advance!!!

    Hi beirut,
    Try the following:
    1.Put the mpc2000,the dj mixer and your computer all in the same power outlet from the wall.
    2.Go to home despot and buy a few gray-colored ground lift plugs (they must be gray)
    3.With these gray ground lift plugs,lift the MPC2000.test the system.No hum=solved problem.hum still there or different,list the DJ mixer.
    4.Is your DJ mixer hooked up to turntables? If so,you need to ground the turntables to a proper ground.Good turntables have a little wire coming out of them,just for that purpose.
    5.Try turning off any TVs,refridgerators,fluorescent lighting(the ones that look like office lights),and other things around your place,and see if the hum goes away.
    6.Try using a DI box for your DJ mixer,to plug it in to the DI,and then out to the audio interface.
    7.And Most Importantly... RUN AND BUY A DIFFERENT BRAND OF AUDIO INTERFACE!!!!!!!!!! M-Audio...yucky yucky yucky!!!
    Cheers

    But what ever i tried, gives no solution . At the end a fail .
    How can i wipe out all the Logic existence from my computer to make new install ?
    Or, what is this problem i am having? As installation is not asking some discs which is necessary for the setup anymore .
    Did anyone experienced that ?
    I will be very happy if someone can assist on me this . Since 5 hours i am trying to setup this thing .
    Thanks a lot

    it is very frustrating to see such an installation problem happening from a "professional" called DAW .
    I am actually a Protools user , and i have never had this type of complications .
    I mean come on, i am just trying to install the thing .
    On a new system, on a new computer and from an original purchase .
    I believe i have enough computer knowledge to instal a simple software .
    But i am spending almost 10 hours since yesterday to install Logic .
    Instead of making designer boxes or giving fancy advertisements, i am inviting Apple Engineers to create proper working software .
    Especially to see a professional audio software like Logic in this epic fall, is very very bad .
    I mean you can say i am problematic and don't know how to instal a simple software, but than please write to google, Logic installation problems , and you will see thousands of issues .
    Whatever i am writing here not against to the people who are replying and want to help , i just want Apple to read this .
    Ah , i am sure Apple won't put attention on it , but doesn't matter .
    You just lost 1 customer for Logic
    I am erasing this thing now from my computer and continue with Protools as the way i was doing .
    Sorry if i am bitter, but this is not acceptable .
