Installing trial on Windows 7

I have read a number of accounts (through a general google search in trying to resolve my issue myself) of people being able to install Photoshop CS4 on Windows 7 with no problems, but I don't seem to be in this lucky number.
I have the Trial Installer, directly from Adobe's website, running it on the 7 Release Candidate (Build 7100). I have tried to find the error logs, but I can't seem to locate it anywhere to attach to help with the diagnosis. In the meantime, a screencapture of the error I get:
"Session has dependencies that cannot be satisfied. The installer database is invalid: please re-install the product from the original media"
I'm not even sure if this is one error message or two, and don't know what to do about it, since this IS the original media, and there's no "install" happening to un-install in the first place! This is extremely frustrating, and will be very helpful for any assistance that can be offered.

Run the CS4 Clean Utility/ Script, having it remove any reference to Adobe products (including Adobe Reader etc.) then manually delete the caps.db file in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\caps. Try a reinstall after that. Installer logs are in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers.

  • Problems installing trial on Windows 8

    I am on Windows 8, and I want to install a trial. The download works, but I can't run the app - nothing happens, even if I run it as administrator. Any ideas why that is?

    I was trying to get Muse. I walked away for a while, and it said I didn't have Air, so I downloaded that. Now that won't run either. I'm not sure what's supposed to happen after I allow it to make changes to my computer, but it would appear its "nothing". I've had similar problems with other downloads because of Windows 8. Can someone please tell me what to do? Thanks.

  • Can I instal SAP Netweaver 2004s trial on windows vista home premium

    Hi ,
    Can I install SAP Netweaver 2004s trial on WIndows vista home premium. Please advise.
    One more thing is I am not able to download the Trial version from the SAP's FTP site. Because ftp is blocked in our company. Is there any other site from which I can download the trial version. Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Sam.

    In this Forum it appears that Windows 2000 with SP4 will work as well (haven't tried it).
    If you've got VISTA you could consider running the trial on a Virtual Machine. Parallels,  and vmware offer commercial vm products for generating Virtual machines whilst Microsoft (Virtual Pc2007) and VBOX offer Free virtualisation products.  Vmware also provides a FREE vmware server virtualisation product --this works fine as well although no multi-media support. However if you only need the Virtual Machine to run the Netweaver trial then that's no big deal.
    As I've posted elsewhere a Win XP pro Virtual Machine using only 512MB of RAM will give quite adequate performance of the ABAP trial. Don't even THINK of the Java edition unless you've got at LEAST 2GB - even on a Virtual Machine.
    Cheers

  • Install Problem with Adobe Presenter 9 Trial on Windows 7 Professional 32 bit?

    I am trying to install Adobe Presenter 9 Trial on Windows 7 Professional 32 bit.  It hangs up while installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86).  How can I get around this?

    Just a hunch. You can try installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) yourself from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3387  and then try installing Presenter again. This may resolve the issue.

  • Trying to install iTunes on Windows 8.1.  Apple Application Support was not found.  Error 2.  Uniinstall iTunes and try again, does not work.  Is there a fix?

    Trying to install iTunes on Windows 8.1.  Apple Application Support was not found.  Error 2.  Uniinstall iTunes and try again, does not work.  Is there a fix?

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?

    Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?
    Need to set up a workstation on my MBPro that will only run on Windows. Im willing to use Bootcamp or Parallels to see what works best. Need to get this set up this week to enable working from home on my MB - rural and hoping to buy Windows 7 online - am I able to get windows working through either bootcamp or Parallels without the actual Windows disc? Bootcamp set up guide calls for a disc.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    First, the answer to your question is yes, it IS possible to install Windows in Parallels without a disc, using an .iso image file.
    Boot Camp since OS X 10.8 also installs Windows without a disc: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4889551?tstart=0
    Parallels has complete documentation, series of forums, and a knowledgebase. You can also download the current release of Parallels 9 and try it for free for a few weeks before you decide to purchase it.
    The Parallels Desktop for Mac product page: http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
    The Desktop for Mac forums: http://forum.parallels.com/forumdisplay.php?58-Parallels-Desktop-for-Mac
    Documentation: http://www.parallels.com/support/desktop-virtualization/desktop/#c12970
    The Knowledgebase for Desktop for Mac: http://kb.parallels.com
    The primary difference between a Boot Camp installation and a Parallels installation is that in the Boot Camp installation, you're installing Windows into a separate partition on your internal mass storage device (hard drive or SSD) and then rebooting your Mac directly into Windows.
    In Parallels, you're always running OS X on the Mac and Parallels is running a Windows virtual machine.
    Not to get too technical here, but it is also possible for Parallels to run an installed Windows Boot Camp partition as a virtual machine. If you're evaluating system performance with a trial copy, that might be the way to go, because you only have to install Windows once on Boot Camp as a dual-boot system, then install Parallels Desktop and run the Boot Camp partition as the virtual machine.
    There is a performance difference between the two, with the Boot Camp Windows installation being faster, but without the convenience of running both Mac and Windows applications simultaneously offered by Parallels. Sometimes that convenience outweighs a performance hit.
    I can't give you more Mavericks and Parallels 9 specifics, because I'm currently running Windows 7 with Parallels 7 on OS X 10.8.5. Parallels 7 will not run on OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
    I've been using Parallels (to run a few old rarely-used WIndows applications with features that would require a steep learning curve and major expense to purchase and learn a similar Mac app) occasionally since Parallels 3 and Windows XP. With each new release of OS X, each new release of Parallels, and each new Windows release, there are ALWAYS 'early adopter' bugs that get worked out over time.

  • After installing trial version the program does not start

    Hi everybody,
    I installed the CS 5.5 Trial on Windows 7. Everything was ok, so I started InDesign and said accept to the License Agreement. But the program does not start, the license window always opens again after clicking accept. Can anybody help me?
    Thanks!

    Make sure to run with full administrative privileges the first time you launch the progrrams. Otherwise the licensing stuff will not be able to kick in and verify our trial period.

  • I have downloaded trial for Windows English version, but can't open the Captivate_8_LS21.7z file. I have 32-bit. Will this work or shoudl I redownload?

    I have downloaded trial for Windows English version 1.45GB.
    It has downloaded but I can't open the Captivate_8_LS21.7z file.
    I have 32-bit. Will this work ?

    Hi There,
    In order to download / install Captivate 8 32 bit, you have to download 2 files ( .7z and .exe ) at same location/ folder.
    Once both files downloaded completely then you have to run .exe file and it will extract .7z file first and then it will initialize the installer. You do not have to open .7z file.
    Let me provide you the download links of Captivate 8 32 bit :-
    Open the link mention below in any Web Browser say Internet Explorer
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=captivate
    Sign in with your Adobe id and Password, then you will be redirected to download Web Page of Captivate 8. 
    Do not click on Download. Kindly let that window open as it is.
    Now Copy and paste the link mention below in the new tab/window of the same Web Browser in which you have opened the above link.
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win32/Captivate_8_LS21.7z
    Then Save the file.
    Do the same for the link mention below and save this .exe file as well.
    http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/CPTV/8/win32/Captivate_8_LS21.exe
    Make sure both the files (.7z and .exe) save/download at the same location/folder.
    NOTE: Wait for both the files to finish download and then run the .exe file.
    Once you run the .exe, it will start extracting the .7z file and will provide Captivate 8 folder on your desktop which will contain setup.exe. Run this setup.exe to install Captivate 8.
    Regards,
    Ajit

  • Can applications in Creative Cloud be installed on a Windows Vista operating system?

    Can applications in Creative Cloud be installed on a Windows Vista operating system?

    Your question is answered on the Adobe website on each individual product's page.
    Bottom line is that, no, Vista is not a supported operating system for CS6 applications.
    All support Windows 7 and Windows 8. Some support Windows XP to varying degrees.
    None officially support Vista but some users have reported success in running them on Vista.
    Your best option may be to download the Master Collection CS6 Trial and see how it performs for you.
