Master Collection fails to start after Windows Vista update

Last night, Automatic Update patched my machine and restarted. This morning, I find that all my CS3 apps (from Master Collection) will not start. Every app presents me with the "Adobe ________ .exe has stopped working." Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks!

Hi all, just ran into the same issue after Service Pack 1 for Vista. Here's the solution:
If you are getting a message about the BRS pencil tool when launching Illustrator and you are using Windows Vista or XP, you may be missing an important font.
For Vista users you are missing the Segoe-UI font. For XP users
you are missing the Tahoma font. These fonts need to be installed on
your system in order for Illustrator, Flash, Photoshop and InDesign to
launch. Most of the other applications will give you a generic
"application has stopped working" error when trying to launch.
Also,another clue is located inside the Event Viewer. For vista users, click on your start button and in the search area type "event", the event viewer will show in the results area, click on it and then click on "windows logs", then click on "application". For XP users, click Start, then Run and type "eventvwr" and hit enter, then click on
"Application". By double-clicking on an error you will see the
description for the problem. If the faulting module shows AdobeOwl.dll, you are most likely missing the font. You can do a google search for the font and they are available for download.
So far I have not found a solution for a mac. The documents referencing these errors are kb402311 and 331889

  • T61 no sound after Windows (Vista) update (?)

    I have purchased a T61 in December 2007. The sound has always been low and now i have no sound at all.  I cannot hear files locally or on the Net -- or any of the computer sounds.

  • OC4J_BI_Forms Fails To Start After Windows Reboot

    Hi,
    After upgrading the metadata repository database to 9.2.0.6 and updating the compatible parameter and creating a new pfile, my OC4J_BI_Forms server fails to start automatically after a reboot.
    I can start the OC4J_BI_Forms server manually and it works fine, but would like it to start automatically after a reboot like it used to.
    I checked the server.xml file and verified autostart is set to true.
    I also checked the server's log files and opmn log files, but couldn't find any error messages saying OC4J tried to start and failed.
    I noticed that OID is taking a little longer to start than it used to. Is it possible this lag is causing the OC4J_BI_Forms to fail starting automatically?
    All other servers start fine after a reboot - only OC4J_BI_Forms is not working correctly.
    Thanks,
    Jim

    <p>As a workaround for this problem, I created a simple batch file containing the command:</p>
    <p><tt>d:\orahome2\opmn\bin\opmnctl startproc ias-component=OC4J</tt></p>
    <p>I then created a scheduled task in Windows Task Scheduler to run the batch file on server startup. So far it seems to work fine.</p>
    <p>Would still like to know why the OC4J_BI_Forms instance is failing to autostart, if anyone has any ideas.</p>

  • Cisco VPN Client after Windows Vista Update (KB941229)

    I had the Cisco VPN client 5 installed on my laptop and configured by the IT department at work. It was working fine all day until I restarted and KB941229 was automatically installed. When it turned back on the Cisco VPN service (CVPND) would attempt to run then stop. If I started it manually it would run for about a minute then stop again. Without the service running the VPN client won't open, let alone let me connect.
    I know this vista update is fairly recent so I'm not sure there will be a fix but maybe somebody can think of a workaround or some way to fix this situation.
    Things I've tried:
    1) Uninstalling the windows update
    2) restarting
    3) restarting (in denial that this was happening)
    4) configuring a vista VPN connection to attempt to connect to the company VPN (this failed too)
    Uninstalling the update caused me to be unable to ping for some reason. This meant the VPN client would run but be unable to connect to the server and yet I was entirely able to access the internet locally. I reinstalled the update assuming maybe the installation went badly but that caused the same problem with the VPN service stopping itself (or being stopped) after a minute.

    Hello
    my issue has been resolved.
    there is a service called Base Filtering Services running in background for Vista and has to disabled to make IP Sec VPN Client working.
    after doing so it works smoothly.

    It looks like it's a problem with the swt libraries?
    Steps I've tried to solve this problem include:
    * Reinstalled vuze, built vuze from AUR
    * Reinstalled JRE. Uninstalled JRE and tried openjdk6
    * Installed SWT from extra and copied new swt.jar to /usr/share/vuze
    * Downloaded new SWT (64 bit) from eclipse homepage and tried that instead
    * Tried starting as root
    * Removed ~/.azureus
    No luck.
    I'm really at a loss here. I hope someone can give me some insight into this mystery.

    Sounds to me like "AVG Safe Search" if you have "AVG Free" installed then you get the extension. Follow the directions on the page below and also check your other extensions for potential problems.

  • Outlook 2007 not opening after Windows Vista Update 25-Aug-09 [Qosmio G50]

    I thought that posting my experience just now might be helpful to others.
    Yesterday (25-Aug-2009) my Outlook 2007 was working perfectly. I had downloaded & installed Outlook Connector 12.1 because I'd received an e-mail from Microsoft to say that the DAV protocol used for HTTP mail would be withdrawn on 1-Sep-09. I also noticed that MS had restored the POP3 service that they closed down a couple of years ago.
    So I set up the POP3 account and started working with that. All OK.
    Last night when I closed down, Windows Update came in and completed on reboot this morning. Outlook 2007 wouldn't start, coming up with the message: +Cannot Start Microsoft Outlook. Cannot open the Outlook Window. The set of folders cannot be opened. The information store could not be opened.+.
    Nothing I did in that environment would enable Outlook 2007 to load, I created a new profile and that did no good.
    So I went back to the System Restore Point made at the time of installing the Outlook Connector and everything sprang to life.
    I had also tried the restore point that undid the Windows Update, but that didn't cure the problem either.
    So, I'll see what happens when I reboot next time in case it had nothing to do with Windows Update.
    Cheers

    There are many tools at the Inet, but no one of them weren't interested me, when I seeking for the solution of my trouble. Only my friend by chance offered me an one long-standing application. It enjoyed me for seconds, I presented my friend a gift and to my mind it would help in such problem also - pst email recovery.

  • Satellite A210 touchpad scrolling disabled after Windows Vista update

    Last week I accepted a Microsoft Windows update. Sine that update I can not get the Satellite to recognise its touchpad and the only driver updates that work are for a standard PS2 mouse. I can no longer use the bottom and side scroll features of the Toshiba touchpad. What drive am I looking for to rstore the touchpad please?

    You can find the Touchpad driver here: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    Firstly remove the driver from Control Panel -> Programs and Features
    Then download and install the latest version.
    If you have Logitech mouse drivers or other 3rdparty mouse/keybiard drivers installed, remove those as well.

  • Trying to reinstall CS5.5 Master Collection from DVD media on Windows 7 64 bit - setup.exe fails due to msxml3.dll error PDApp message [FATAL] PIM - Failed to Create XML instance : DOMDocument40 ADXML::initWithXMLPath Error:80040154

    If anyone is able to solve this they are a genius (or I am doing something very stupid!)
    I am trying to reinstall CS5.5 Master Collection from DVD media on Windows 7 64 bit PC but setup.exe fails due to a msxml3.dll error.
    Following a big bundle of recent Windows 7 updates, I started getting 'bad image' msxml3.dll error messages when opening any CS5.5 master collection program (Eg Premiere / Photoshop / Illustrator / Dreamweaver). Following advice on some threads here I tried uninstalling and then using the Adobe CC Cleaner Tool to clean up install, then reinstalling from my original DVD media.
    Whenever I try using run setup.exe from installtion disc 1 the installing fails due to 'Missing files'. I have also tried dowloading trial versions and runing setup.exe fro mthe downloaded files but i still get the same message.
    I have searched the forum and others have experienced this error but none of the solutions I have found seem to be working for me - as many seem to relate to download installations whereas I am installing from original DVD media (which worked fine before on the same PC)
    These are the FATAL messages from the PDApp log
    12/11/2014 15:29:27 [FATAL] PIM - Failed to Create XML instance : DOMDocument40 ADXML::initWithXMLPath Error:80040154

    12/11/2014 15:29:27 [FATAL] Setup - Unable to initialize. Error parsing setup.xml file
    The PDApp troubleshooting seems to indicate that this is caused by error in downloads but I am getting it with both original media DVD and downloads.
    I have also tried using my logon (which has admin privileges) and under our main admin account - and I get the same errors.
    Is a clean install of Windows 7 + CS5.5 my only option?
    Any help / info / advice / solutions very much appreciated! I have spent the last 2 days trying to sort this out and seem to be getting nowhere.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply kglad - much appreciated.
    I have already tried that option (along with downloading files) as it was one of the solutions mentioned on other threads, but that also failed.
    Any other ideas?

  • I downloaded the latest important update to windows vista yesterday, and since then Firefox crashes very soon after enetering the portal of any website I visit, and I want to know if the windows vista update could be doing this?

    Yesterday (23rd March) my computer appeared to perform an auto update of windows vista and since then every time time use firefox it crashes shortly after entering a web portal (after about 1-5 seconds). It even crashes on the BBC news page which I always use to check stability. I have been using Firefox for years and it has just started doing this. However, I examined the programme files and actaully cannot see a windows vista update for yesterday, but I can see that there was a Firefox update, so now I'm a bit confused. Looking at the program files in more details it appears that there was a very major update of Firefox taking place including lots of file extensions. You should also know that your password recovery process doesn't work. I never got the email that is supposed to help me recover a lost password. I am really disappointed with Firefox doing this. It's costing me time and money. Can you help before I give up and go back to using Windows explorer (ugh!). I have thought of simply removing Firefox and starting again with a new download but that might not solve the probelm and I will lose my bookmarks.

    I have an update to my message posted yesterday regarding Firefox crash after vista update. Today it got worse when Firefox wouldn't open at all and Windows explorer also stopped working. Curiously, email was still working, and when I checked another (little used) account on the same PC, I got a perfect connection with Firefox and Explorer. I had to conclude that the latest updates of Vista have interacted with some application only found in my main account on the PC. I tried opening Firefox in its safe mode and I tried opening explorer without Plug ins, but neither worked. Finally I decided the only answer was to do a system restore and wind back the windows software to where it was before the problem. I now have Firefox and explorer restored to working order, but I still don't understand why, because I got a message saying the system restore hasn't worked. Full Comprehension of the cause is beyond my capability, but through trial and error as described above I seem to have fixed it. The suspect vista updates are KB2505189 , and KB2524375.

  • ColdFusion 8 Fails to start after update Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 4

    I have been using ColdFusion on a Mac for years. Now CF fails to start after I updated Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 4. I usually start by typing in the terminal window sudo /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin/ColdFusion start.

    Dear Craig,

    I'm sure that this is 64-bit
    CF 8.0.1 Enterprise Build 3080
    I had moved the Java SE 6 to the top in both Plugin and Applications. The
    correct version is showing in the terminal window. See below.
    Last login: Thu Jun 18 11:27:09 on ttys001

    Beta-4:~ Colin$
    CF will not start. I have the activity monitor open, and when I start CF you
    see it in the activity monitor for a few seconds as it starts up. When the
    message process is completed in the terminal window CF disappears in the

    Hi, Colin,
    My apologies but I forgot to ask 2 questions: (1) What kind of Mac you have
    (Intel or PowerPC)? (2) What version of CF are you running and what installer
    did you choose (8 or 8.0.1, 32-bit, 64-bit, etc.)?
    To start, try the following:
    1. Normally you'd shut CF down first ... but that's not necessary for you
    2. Open Java Preferences again
    3. Select Java SE 6 and move it (drag) to the top spot in both section (Applet
    Plugin and Applications)
    4. Open Terminal
    5. Type java -version (you should see 1.6.0_13 as the new version)
    6. Try to start CF again
    This may not work (I've had issues with it) but it's technically how it's
    supposed to work. With the Java Preferences utility, you're visually setting a
    default JVM (you can do it with commands in Terminal but this is much faster
    and easier).
    If CF still won't start, look for the jvm.config file in your CF application
    folder (try /Applications/ColdFusion8/bin or
    /Applications/ColdFusion8/runtime/bin -- the latter is where a jvm.config file
    is on my machine for a particular version of CF that's installed similar to
    yours). You can override the JVM in this file but, hopefully, that won't be
    necessary!
    Best,
    Craig

  • Multiple Oracle Homes - Oracle Listener failes to start after installation

    Just in case the listener fails to start after an oracle installation, please check the oracle ports in the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora, both of which are present in the following directory:
    ...\oracle\<SID>\<Ver>\NETWORK\ADMIN
    All installations should have separate listener ports eg. If the first installation has port 1527, the next one should be 1528 and so on..
    If they do not, manually change the ports and start the listeners.
    Also check SAP Note 98252. Although I didn't find it necessary (I think it applies only if you have a single listener for all oracle homes), it did give me an idea that there some config problem in the .ora files.
