Lightroom 5 won't install on my Mac...

All is well until I put in the serial number. Then when I click "Finish", everything just disappears and Lightroom shuts down. No error messages. No freezing. It just vanishes. The serial number is correct, btw. I see the green check icon after typing it in. I've tried inputing the registration info, then clicking Finish, same problem.
I've tried this both with the installation disc that I bought, and with the download from adobe.com.
I am running OSX 10.8.2 on a 2011 Macbook Pro.

Hello Adobe, can I get an answer here? I waite on the phone for 1 hour with customer service to no avail...

  • Lightroom 2 won't install at all

    Hi, folks--
    Could anyone suggest why my new version of Lightroom 2 won't install at all on my system? At first I thought that it was because my comp didn't meet the minimum requirements, but I believe it does, so I'm stumped. I received a Windows Installer error message stating, "This installation package could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package." I'm trying to install from a brand-new CD purchase made through Amazon, so I trust the retailer. I have a valid serial number and all that.
    I'm running Win XP Pro, SP3.
    Thanks for the help!
    -Greg

    My suggestion is to download the trial (which is the full version) and try that. You can then add the serial number on the one you purchased.

  • Docs to go won't install on my mac

    Hi,
    I've recently bought a palm TX, and have been experiencing trouble  with the included software apps for my mac.
    I've installed palm desktop, and some of the other apps such as adobe reader, but for some reason docs to go won't install.
    i can load the disk image off the CD, click on the VISE installer icon, accept the terms of use, but it get's stuck when the progress bar appears.  the last thing it says before "not responding" is...
    items to install 240
    "searching  [computer name]"
    or something along those lines
    I've tried repairing disk permissions, i'm logged in on the admin account, reinstalled palm desktop and there are no other apps running.
    I'm using OSX 10.4.11 (tiger), a palm TX, and the palm desktop version is 4.2.2
    I've also tried downloading 4.2.1 rev D but same result.
    please help!
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    Thanks for your reply,
    The version included on the CD is Docs to go ver 7.  According to the datavis website, it's mac compatible, and it certainly looks like a mac compatible installation procedure.
     I've found getting technical help from datavis pretty much impossible, as i need a registration no. to e-mail for support, and as I can't even install the program, I've got no registration no.
    Is there anyone else out there with a TX using docs to go on their mac???

  • Mavericks won't install on newest mac mini fusion drive

    I have a mac mini, latest version.  I have a fusion drive.
    Mavericks won't install on that drive.  I get this message:
    This disk doesn't use the GUID Partition Table scheme. Use Disk Utility to change the partition scheme. Select the Disk, choose the
    partition tab, select the volume Scheme and then click Options.
    Well, I did that, up to "choose the partition tab."  Then it says "you may only split this partition into two. To do this, click +."
    I did that, and there were two partitions.  the only option left is to select apply, which I didn't.
    The "options" were still greyed out.
    So now what?
    Thanks for any input.

    Lion creates a recovery area with a minimal version of OS X and it may be unable to do so due to use over the years, and possibly other resizing operations (Boot Camp).  It could just need more space, if you only have less than 8gb free.  Lion shuffles and merges the two systems when it upgrades.  You can burn the image downloaded from App Store by finding the dmg file inside the "Install Mac OS X Lion.app" bundle, dragging it into disk utility, then burning from there.
    Otherwise, you can appropriate a MBR/BIOS formatted 4GB thumbdrive, 8GB of either EFI or MBR/BIOS thumbdrive, flash storage device, or external hard drive, and format it, using the restore operation through disk utility to copy the contents of the installer disk to the media.  Exposed via the alt key before the Apple logo, should show the bootable media, where you can format over the former installation.
    As always, backup your files when upgrading.  I recommend if your installion is over a year old to wipe and upgrade if you can't make otherwise the media bootable, using your 10.6 recovery dvd.
    If you cannot find an external medium to backup your files before the upgrade, if you need to format via disk utility (Through 10.6 media), you can consider Dropbox as an option (2GB free account).
    It's not uncommon for the partition to simply refuse operations, including upgrades and resizing.

    2.  If the machine is connected with a USB cable, are there any other devices, such as a USB hub or extender, connected between the unit and the computer?
    3.  Are you receiving any specific error messages when you attempt to install the drivers?
    4.  How are you installing the drivers?  Are you using the installation CD that came with the machine or are you using drivers downloaded from the Canon USA website?

  • Flash Player won't install properly in Mac

    I have repeatedly attempted to install the most current version of Adobe Flash Player in my 10.8.4 Mac without success.  Actually it installs, but does not give me opportunity to accept your terms (which I am willing to do).  When I try to open a file, it is black.  What do I have to do to get this to work properly?

    Junie,
    Hi...
    I really appreciate your assistance.... I installed firefox. I have MAC version 10.5.8... I think I should have stated that on my prior post......sorry.
    The version of firefox I installed on this mac works until I attempt to use a app that requires flash. I updated the flash player with the correct version that firefox requires.
    to no avail will the plugin update. when attempting to update the plugins, I get a message from firefox telling me that I do not have the required system in the mac in order to update the plugins.
    So...I am going to continue to investigate and analyze where I am going wrong in my attempts to reinstall adobe flash on this mac....
    I will keep you apprised to my outcome. Any further assistance that you may possibly provide me would be Great!!
    Thanks again,
    Scott

  • I downloaded Lightroom 4, but it won't install on my Mac OS version 10.8.3

    I get the following message when I try to install Lightroom 4: 
    The app’s authorization has been revoked
    Although this app was signed by an identified developer, the certificate for the app has been revoked. There may be a problem with it. The app cannot be opened.
    You should check with the Mac App Store to see if there is an updated version of this app, or check with the software developer.
    I bought it from Newegg.  Any ideas?

    If you purchased from Newegg, im not sure why the Mac App store is involved. Did you have a previous version purchased from the App Store?
    Is this an upgrade version or full version?
    Have you contacted Newegg?

  • Lr5 won't install on my mac

    Cs6 has uploaded fine, Lr5 won't it just keep saying .... "you are running an operating system lightroom no longer supports ...i'm on a mac and have L4 installed now and working fine
    thanks

    The oldest version of the Mac operating system LR 5 will install & run on is 10.7
    So if you wanted to use LR 5 you’d need to update your operating system first. I know it's a pain, but at least it’s no big expense. Before you go ahead you’d also need to determine whether your Mac will run the current version 10.8 – you can check that here…

  • OS X Mavericks won't install after erasing Mac Hardrive for reboot

    So I decided to reboot my computing and now the new OS X software won't install

    If you do have an iMac, Late 2012, restart the iMac holding the Command+Option+R keys so you boot from the Apple internet servers, you must be on the internet to do that.  You can then choose Install Mac OS X and reinstall your operating system.  Then proceed to go to the Mac App Store and download and install Mavericks.

  • Lightroom trial won't install on Macbook

    Hey,
    I've downloaded the file but when I click on it, it opens in a window that saids the disk image could not be opened and that the reason is not recognised.
    HELP!! PLEASE!!!!

    Hi,
    .dmg is the right file to be downloaded to install the application on a Mac.
    The file size shows that the download was not completed.
    The Lightroom Mac installer file size is approximately 113 MB.
    I would recommend re-downloading the installer.

  • Firefox 17 won't install on my mac 10.5.8, white circle with cross through, it previously worked an hour ago had to delete because an annoying toolbar add on?!

    Firefox worked merely hours ago on my computer, had to delete as I explained above because of a dodgy toolbar from some website, deleted firefox, tried re-installing and won't work. Tried links on other help pages to download older firefox version and comes up with page "Whoops are you lost firefox page" and redirects to where I was. Very frustrating. I just want my firefox the way it was ?!

    Firefox 17.0 and above requires Mac 10.6 or higher. The last version made for Mac 10.5.8 is Firefox 16.0.1.
