My "Adobe installer" is not running  and "adobe application manager" will not update....

My question?
When did making art get so technical? Also, have the software engineers at Adobe finally  begun to shed the Cheetos from their beards and then crown themselves as artists extraordinaire? Well good for them! Bad for me! No offense, but I've  been wrestling with this for quite a while. Without a single Cheeto.....
Could somebody at least tell me that this problem is mostly imaginary? I can relate to that actually, one time in Santa Cruz...
Bridge crashes frequently, especially during a drag and drop action. Photoshop crashes less frequently, but when even a mere moment's worth of my eternal genius has been shed, all life weeps, including you...unknowingly...
I was then instructed by the Adobe to perform a strange ritual using an ancient language called the "DOS" and to inquire for the Adobe of the little known " fsutil file setshortname" routine. Then the Adobe would know my true name, and where my short paths were (?).I tried very hard to comply with the demands of the Adobelites who lounged in the Cloud but fled to this place for counsel./
This is all true. My mother said so.
Thanks, and with much too much time on his hands,
Erich

By "not running", what exactly do you mean?
You can't open it from "Programs"? You can't open it when double clicking a pdf file? You can't open a link to a pdf on a web page? Do you get any error messages?
More details please.

    FIrst try a soft reset by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears then let go & let the iPad boot up normally. 
    If that doesn't help then to make sure you have a strong internet connection.
    Try resetting Network Settings
    Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network Settings,
    You won't lose any data but will have to log back into your wifi networks.
    Once logged back in and when the pop-up appears, try entering your password again.

  • Application Manager Will Not Install

    I recently purchased - about a month ago - the creative cloud and the application manager initially downloaded and installed with no issues. While some of the programs like Illustrator, In-Design, Lightroom and Premier Pro would not download or install onto my computer, I didn't mind at the moment because Photoshop and Dreamweaver worked fined and those were the two applications I used to the most.
    However, after once again trying to install the other applications, which failed, I unistalled the application manager with the hopes that a reinstallation would solve the problem.
    It made the problem worse.
    Now the application manager won't even download and install as it nearly finishes downloading when an error message problem pops up with only a link to the customer support area.
    Needless to say this is extremely frustrating as I was very excited to finally be able to afford the adobe programs as new student to interactive media design, but it is now just runing my creative flow!
    I hope there is a way to fix this because I really want to start using the applications as soon as possible.
    Thanks for any help

    Lets try two steps to fix the problem.
    First run the Adobe Cleaner Tool.
    You can download it from here http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html.
    In the drop-down in the top right select Creative Cloud and then highlight Creative Cloud Installer.
    Now click on the Cleanup selected button.
    Next install the Adobe Application Manager (AAM) for Windows.
    You can get it from here http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4773 (For a Mac OS X customer reading this post use http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774).
    Launch AAM and sign in with your Adobe ID.
    You should now be able to install the programs you want. If this does not work I will ask for some log files which can be sent to the AAM team for investigation.

  • Application Manager will not update to Lightroom 5

    I updated all of the apps via Application manager. It updated Lightroom but only to version 4.3. Why is it not updating it to the latest version?

    Janja77 is the Adobe Application Manager listing Lightroom as up to date?  Also which operating system are you using?

  • Trying to download premier pro and adobe application manager will not stop the four square dance.

  • IMac will not run Pro Tools 9 - Some will not run CS5.5 Production Premium and some will?

    So i have 6 imacs in my computer lab at this time - I recently created a new image for all of our lab computers using snow leopard OS, Pro Tools 9.0, and Adobe CS5.5 Production Premium - this image works fine on our MacPro's and Pro Tools has no problems opening or CS5.5, but when I imaged the same image onto the imacs - CS5.5 only works on two of the machines and Pro Tools 9.0 will not open on any imac ( i keep getting the message "Can not find playback device: I thought you didnt need one for Pro Tools 9?) and i cant figure out why.  The imacs that have problems with CS5.5 and Pro Tools are the 20" early 2006 versions, and the imacs that run CS5.5 but not Pro Tools are 20" late 2006 versions.  Are they just too old?  Why would it let me image on the late 2006 version of imac but not the early 2006?  Do i need to create an image on the imac itself and then farm it out to the others?
    Thanks for your comments,
    Kyle

    I know this is a very late answer for you, but it may help others out.
    Try holding down the "N" key on your keyboard while loading the Pro Tools application.
    This will eventually open up a dialog box with a drop down menu for selecting your interface.
    In the case where you're not using an interface (like the lab), within this dialog box, just select Built-in Output and plug in your headphones in the back of the iMac.
    I'm running several rooms with iMacs and PTLE 9.0.6 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and this is the only hiccup I've run into. Hopefully, holding down the "N" key works for you.

  • Itunes 10.1 will not install and Rollback v8.2 will not recognise my Ipod!

    Hi,
    I recently updates to itunes 10 (running nano 4th gen) and since then my computer has become a constant error message and my ipod has become a paper weight.
    Whilst installing I10 I get error messages saying could not open Key unknown\components\DA42BC89BF25F5BD0AF18C3B9B1AEE8 verify that you have sufficient access to that key.
    I searched through the support forum and did everything that was advised to confirm access etc. I tried to reinstall but got the same message again followed by "Apple application support not found" and then "the program can't start because core foundation.dll is missing from your computer".
    Again searched the message boards and tried everything suggested but with no luck.
    Ok i said to myself - I need to rollback.
    I managed to install itunes V8.2.1.6
    When i go to open it i get 2 messages come up that state "The program cant start becuase ASL.dll is missing from your computer" If i click ok on both message and then try to open itunes again it will open. PHEWWWWW.
    However, Now I cannot sync my ipod.
    Itunes will recognise it, if I try to do a restore I get the message "The ipod could not be restored, An unknown error occured (1436)"
    The only help I can find for this is to update to the latest itunes (which I cannot for tech issues).
    I have done a reset on the ipod both hard and soft but no luck.
    The support I received from apple was basically a message saying that the support they offered didn't cover these issues!!!!!!!
    Is there anything that can be done to sort this mess out or should I just consign my ipod to becoming a paper weight.
    Any and all suggestions welcome.
    Thanks in advance

  • Firefox will not start and Firefox.exe process will not end!

    Good evening,
    I am typing this on Internet Explorer, and Google Chrome seems to refuse to install. I have been experiencing considerable trouble with launching FF. Whenever I double-click the icon, FF does not launch. There are no error mesages, the cursor just turns to an hourglass and then back to the pointer. When I open the task manager, there is always one Firefox.exe process open that will not close no matter how many times I press the "End Process" button. This is maddening. Can I do anything to get FF up and running again? I have restarted my computer countless times. I ran a scan with Norton Antivirus and whatever it detected obviously wasn't what is causing this issue. Please try and assist me, this is outrageous.
    Thank you,

  • HT1338 I have a Leopard desktop 10.5.8 and I have trouble with MAIL. My draft folder does not work and my draft messages will not delete.        delete

    I have a Leopard desktop 10.5.8 and I have trouble with my Email Apple MAIL draft folder. First of all after I typed my draft and sent to draft, the folder would not open at a later date to send. In all I have 10 messages, mainly test which I cannot delete from my Draft folder.
    My draft system is now working but I cannot get rid of the  10 messages which sit in my INBOX and DRAFT folders.
    These messages appear in Application - Mail but they will not go.
    How do I delete, or is it best to use My Disc 1# and delete all my software and replace with the Disc in order to have a new MAIL program?
    Any advice would be welcome.

    HI,
    Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup),  it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
    Move this Folder to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
    Move this file to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
    Reboot.
    If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
    Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

  • I sed a phone headset (not bluetooth) and now internal speakers will not activate.

    Phone thinks audio port still has jack.  Ihave tried : turning on/off using headset and removing while in a call.  Sound works on headset or bluetooth but not as speaker.
    I have tried rebooting the phone by turning it on/off and removing the sim card.
    I have also tried using the phone with headset in place and removing it during the call.
    the phone still thinks the headset jack is in place and will not return to speaker.
    This also keeps the internal speakers from activating for an incoming call.
    Subject line edited for brevity and moved into post.

    I'm so sorry that is happening. We want you to have a great working device. Is there any damage to the device? Does this still occur with a different headset?
