My installation fails mid way on CS2 photoshop on mac.

Hello, I'm trying to install the CS2 on mac, It starts installing, though mid way it says: 'The installation failed, Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the softaware manufacturer fo assistence' I have managed to get hold of someone on live chat and they said to come here.. So here I am! Can anyone help?

Good day Angelika,
There could be a number of reasons for your installation failing... do you receive an error message at all? What are the specifications of the computer that you are operating on (what operating system, what year/version/profile of Mac?
You may want to read the following: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.htm l
This page has information relating to the end-life of CS2 as well as a few installation errors.
Sorry that I can't be more helpful than that for the time being...
Cheers!
Jasper

    It takes around 5mins till it fails and then i can recall and it is fine for a little bit,
    it has don't this on a few calls not just to the same person
    Around the same time this started to happen, my Bluetooth stopped working it connects just fine and I press call on it and it work but it has stopped connecting the call to it. I can even hang up without the call going through it.

  • "Installer Failed To Initialize"? After Effects CS5 Mac, Help!!!

    I'm in serious need of some help here. I downloaded the After Effects CS5 trial, but when I go and try to install it I get an error:
    "Installer Failed To Initialize. Please Download Adobe Support Advisor To Detect The Problem"
    I already tried Adobe Support Advisor, but it didn't detect any problems.
    I tried re-downloading the file again, but still no luck.
    I'm running an iMac with Mac OS X 10.6.2, Intel Core 2 Duo Processor.
    Can anyone please help me?

    Hi.  I see this thread is old...last post is july 2010.  However, since I just had a similar issue and since a google search brought me here, i figure id share my info with other who my hit this too...
    i have os x 10.7 and am trying to install cs5.5 master collection.  i kept getting the installer failed to initialize error.
    by looking at the PDApp.log, i saw an error and fixed the issue causing the error...
    my issue was when launching Install.app, it looks for ~/Applications and creates a folder "Adobe" in it.  I had an alias in my home dir and the log showed the installer didnt see it as a valid directory.
    by removing the alias, the installer then created the folder "~/Applications/Adobe" for me.  However, since it created an empty folder named Applications, separate from the actual /Applications dir, this was not acceptible.
    So, if i right click on /Applications and hit "Make alias" and move that to my home dir...same issue.
    But, if i open Terminal.app and type "sudo ln -s /Applications" the seemingly same type of alias or "symbolic link" is created, but instead the installer see the dir as valid, and the install went flawlessly.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • Please Help. Photoshop installation failed half way through

    Initially I had downloaded the photoshop CC2014 trial once, I paid I wanted the CC version because I need the oil paint function which was taken out on the CC2014 version, so what I did is uninstall the CC2014 which was installed and working and proceeded to install the CC version but midway through installation it kept failing and telling me to restart my computer, I have done that at least half a dozen times, plus I've also tried the following:
    > I uninstalled every adobe app I had including CC
    > I have used the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner tool app
    > Have restarted my computer so many times I lost count and I still get the same error, half way through the installation process
    > And now the same thing is happening when I try to reinstall illustrator, this is a nightmare!
    BTW I'm not running any other software while doing this and have turned off the fire walls
    I'm on an Imac OS X version 10.9.5
    Please help I've spent so manny hours trying to solve this, it's driving me crazy and need to complete some work in photoshop I have deadline.

    Tat7 I would recommend reviewing your installation log files for actionable error messages.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret your installation logs at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  You are welcome to post any additional errors you locate to this discussion.

  • Photoshop installer hangs mid way through installing, how can i get it to work?

    Im not sure how to proceed, and cant find any help on this? any suggestions?
    I forgot to mention, im running os X Lion.

    You will want to begin by reviewing your installation logs.  You can find steps on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

  • Installation Failed on Trial version of Photoshop CS6

    I have downloaded the trial version of Photoshop CS6 but I keep getting the error message in this screen shot.
    I have plenty of disk space so that's not the issue
    Can anyone advise

    You could still run out of disk space on your temp folders... Do a little housekeeping - delete extranauous files in teh temp folder, defragment your drive.

  • Installation fails half way through process

    Whilst trying to install Leopard onto my ibook g4, it stopped working because of a minor scratch on the disk. This meant that when I had to restart my laptop it tries to run it from leopard instead of tiger. As there is only 20% of the operating system on the computer it does not work and just stays on the grey opening screen. The disk is also still stuck in the drive and there is no way of getting it out. Is there anyway of rebooting the computer or will I have to send it back to apple? Thanks

    Parke ahs a great idea. Also:
    Clean the disk. Barely dampen some toilet paper, and wipe the surface. Avoid getting any in the hole, and if you do, make cetain to wipe it. Then, with another wad, wipe the disk dry. Be very deliberate.
    Look at the top side of the disk (hold it to a light). If the top is scratched, the disk is toast. Get another.

  • Receiving installation failed after attempting to install Photoshop,Illustrator, InDesign (and seems anything with CC).  Error is Third party payload installer vcredist_x86.exe failed with exit code: -2147024546 and Failed to install Microsoft Visual C  

    Initial install.  Logged into Cloud then initiated download.  Programs appear to be installed but received those errors.  Is this solely affiliated with third party licensing?  Is this something that I need to be concerned about?

    Hi,
    It seems Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package is corrupt,
    Please download it from:

  • Security Update for exchange 2013 SP1 (KB3040856) failed mid-way / power problem mailbox server disconnected

    While applying todays security update for exchange 2013 (KB3040856) there was a power issue (sad story) and the update was interrupted halfway through.  A bunch of service were left deactivated and I beleive I brought them back.
    At this point the exchange admin center brings me to the login and when I do login, I get an enable to display page msg after the login.
    I have an ActiveSync error log  "cannot access the mailbox because the mail box server is disconnected"  translated from french.
    I also have ASP.NET 4.0 error "MapiExceptionMdbOffline"
    What could be the next step in fixing this if it is at all possible ?  I am not an expert in cmdlet but can manage if pointed in the right direction.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I ran update KB3040856, and it disabled all Exchange services, and a few others besides (IIS and filtering). I ran the test-servicehealth cmdlet and eventually got all the services set to automatic and all running.
    This is really a stupid thing for an update to do, what is going on? Exchange 2013 is trouble enough already, we really do not need this sort of agro.
