Just installed CS4 Trial and it says license expired!

Had previously a 30 day trial of CS3 Photoshop & After effects on my Mac and just installed my 30 day trial of CS4 Master collection, I bought on DVD from Adobe, and it states for all the CS4 programes my license has expired!
How do I resolve this?

Just installed DW trial and it says I have one use left?!

So I've been having troubles getting the CS4 DW trial to work. It would crash at the loading screen. Every other CS4 app works fine. I finally figure out the problem, which was Acer e-Security software. So I uninstall that and reinstall CS4 and uninstall my old copy of MX (which works perfectly). I fire DW cs4 up. it works and then tells me that I have one use left....what is going on? Can someone help me out? All I want to do is try the darn thing for 30 days to see if I want to upgrade. AT this point, I'm considering not doing so. I shouldn't have to go to this much trouble.

There's a patch for an Acer machine:

Don't know if this would make a difference if you try and start DW after the update. I couldn't find anything in the technotes about CS4 expiring sooner than the 30 days. There was a problem with DW8 doing so, but haven't heard about it for CS4.

CS4 Dreamweaver says "License expired" even after installing Web Premium CS4

I just purchased Web Premium CS4. I had CS3 and Dreamweaver CS4 Beta installed. Learned that I needed to uninstall CS4 Beta, used
the CS4 Uninstall script. Reinstalled CS4, it showed Dreamweaver would be installed (was no longer a greyed point). Went through entire installation. Everything works except Dreamweaver which continues to say "license has expired" as if it still has the beta license in there even though I've used the script to uninstall! Help, how can I get it to use the new licensed version?
The rest of the Web Premium CS4 applications are working properly, only Dreamweaver is giving me problems!
Operating System: Windows XP Professional SP3
Both my laptops have the exact same problem.

Hi,
I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CS4 and ran it OK for about a week. Then all of a sudden it just crashed and wouldnt open anymore. No warnings etc. Just wouldnt open.
I'd seen enough of the program so decided I'd buy it and got CS4 extended (student version). Great stuff I thought. Uninstalled the trial version and went ahead with loading up the new program. All went well with the install, accepted my product key no problems. Then the dreaded "License has expired" has come up and I'm basically left with a brand new program that does nothing at all sitting on my computer. Bridge and drive etc work OK - or seem to.
I've had a case opened with Adobe for 3 days now and have had no response at all. - not that I'm expecting too much after reading comments on here and around the net. Seems they have my cash and thats it as far as they're concerned.
Luckily I dont have too much important stuff on my laptop and have it all backed up. So I'm tempted to be a bit extreme as long as I get some confidence it would work.
I'm presuming that if I format the Hard drive (its not partitioned) and reinstall my OEM Vista (from a Dell Disk) then there should be no problems with installing CS4 again and getting it to run without all the trouble of it seemingly looking at the wrong key for activation. I'm not sure if the OEM disk allows me to reformat the complete hard disk prior to loading Vista again. Or whether it will just keep the old stuff on and mess things up again.
I know the retail versions give you an option of a complete fresh install, but I dont really want to go and buy a copy of Vista just to get CS4 to work, and with Windows 7 on the horizon.
It might be cheaper to just to a larger hard drive (which I want anyway) and install on that.
Any opinions? I just really want to get this up and running.
Cheers for any help.

HT3396 I just purchased ipages online and it says it is installed but i dont cant print or save

I just purchased ipages online and it says it is installed but i dont cant print or save

The usual cause is having the trial of iWork '09. You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.
FYI: the name of the program is Pages, no 'i', the suite is iWork.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 says license expired on first day of usage.

Downloaded Adobe Photoshop CS4 trial version yesterday(5/22) and install it today 5/23 on a new PC. When I tried to open it, it says license expired...anyone know why? I have uninstalled and re-installed and it says the same thing.

This Adobe knowledge Base article deals with the problem.

Alert when installing CS4 trial suite on Windows 7

Hi,
When I try to install CS4 trial software on Windows 7 Family Premium I get a message saying I do not have Windows XP 64 bits or Vista 64 bits and I should upgrade my system... How come?
I have a new Toshiba laptop with 4gb of RAM and 500Gb of HD.
I see setup.exe dates back from September 2008 so it is not surprising Windows 7 is not recognized. Should I install anyway?
Thank you for your help.

Thank you for your time.
Yes the message is about upgrading to Vista or XP because the requirements are not satisfied. But I have Windows 7 Home Premium...
Here is a copy of the message:
The minimum system requirements listed below are recommended in order to run Adobe Creative Suite CS4 properly and are not met:
Windows XP 64-Bit Service Pack 1 and greater
Windows Vista 64-Bit Service Pack 1 and greater
It is recommended that you upgrade or adjust your system to meet these minimum requirements and the restart the installer.
I finally decided to continue the install and it seemed ok. The only problem I have is with Dreamweaver because I cannot put the right root folder in the website setup dialog (I select the right folder but it writes the folder above it).

CC subscription just reverted to trial and no longer works (Flash CC / CS6)

After six months of using Flash CS6 (Creative Cloud), last weekend I decided to try the Premiere CC Trial.
That worked great and at the same time my Flash just switched to trial and became unusable (trial has expired already)
I've tried everything suggested by Adobe Technical team so far and more which involves the usual unistalling everything and reinstalling, logging out and in, cleaner tool, etc.
Still nothing will fix it.
I think I noticed an update to the Creative Cloud app at about the same time - I'm wondering if it is this causing the issue....
BTW, inside the Creative Cloud app, my account shows my valid subscription to both Flash CC and Flash CS6... and several other items show 'Install' rather than 'Try'
Please help!
(I posted this in another discussion as reply to a similar issue but the topic is flagged as answered so I'm guessing starting a new discussion is the right thing to do..)

Hi Ankit,
I am so frustrated by this - I have already lost days of my time trying to fix this. Not to mention the thrill of paying for software I can't use.
I have literally uninstalled and reinstalled everything I can think of a dozen times or more.. seen the post you mention already.
I have never changed languages... seen all the other stuff on the other thread too.
But guess what.. that is all pretty irrelevant because I was assuming that this was something to do with my particular machine.. but it isn't.
The proof? I went to my Mac which can also run the CC software and has been doing so just fine.. till.. you guessed it.. today..
Just tried that and the same thing has happened.. all reverted to trial.
So it is at your end... on your servers.. it has to be, right?
And all this nonsense you are dishing out here is just a massive waste of time. Well I'll need to fume in the corner for a bit longer I'm afraid.....
So.. trying to get calm and rational again...
The only thing I have changed on my account online is my id and password because I have literally tried everything I could think of... even that.
So my adobe id has changed.
I am signing into CC with the correct id and password.
Unless you are going to tell me that that has broken my Mac versions then please do let me know what on earth is supposed to be going on here...
Thanks

I just installed itunes 10 and all it does when i open it is show me the software agreement, and if I click "accept" or "decline" it closes and does nothing else. It does the same thing when i try to play music on it. (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

I just installed iTunes 10 and all it does when I open it up is show me the software license agreement, and if I click either "accept" or "decline" it closes up and does nothing else. It does the same thing when I try to play mp3 files, just opens up the license agreement and nothing else. It also doesn't recognise my iPod touch when I plug it in, thinks it's a digital camera. Please help! (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

Installed XI trial and it's not letting me use it. It's still asking for payment.

Installed XI trial and it's not letting me use it. It's still asking for payment. I don't want to spend $200 on a product that I have no idea if it has the capability to do what I need it to do. I need to edit adobe documents. No I don't have the original documents. I'm downloading the docs offline as that is how I was told to retrieve them. It says they are adobe files but when I click "Save As" it automatically is saving them as .htm. However, staying focused, they are adobe docs.

Sounds like you are using the browser's Save As feature. You need to
either use the Adobe Reader plugin's Save feature
or download the docs directly by right-clicking on the PDF links

Just installed CS4 - Web Standard

Just installed CS4 (DW, FW, Contribute). I was surprised that
my DW8 and FW MX were still on my computer. Is it safe to remove
these two old versions (I could really use the HD space!).

Perhaps Adobe changed the nature of the export option.
It appears to be an Adobe issue, based upon the description of your two machines.
In any case, you can export as a reference movie and have far more controls using the Adobe Media Converter for flv.
good luck

I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet "

iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
Thank you.

My phone is the iPhone4 and my computer is a Windows Vista

I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.
