Need help with Adobe CS5 Master Collection

Trying to install adobe CS5 but everytime I do a load error came up.  So I was reading and it told me to download adobe support advisor so I did and this message came up "cpsid 82829s5 Missing installation file bootstrap error has occurred.  I have even tried using the clean and still no good.  Any other Ideas ??
Thanks

Excellent, and great news!
I would take one more step now: make a Copy of your physical installation DVD's, to high-quality blank media, such as Verbatim, Falcon Pro, or Taiyo-Yuden.
I use the great, free burning utility, ImgBurn, to make my Copies (plus other burning tasks). Often, the Copy can get past problems on the slightly damaged original media.
In my case, I have 2 totally different multi-drives, as one will read some media, better than the other. I choose the multi-drive that does the best, for my source and the other for my destination. If you only have one multi-drive, it does take a bit longer, as you then must Copy from the source disk, to the HDD, and then write to a destination disk in that same multi-drive.
As you have made a Copy to your HDD, which tested good, as it worked, I would just Copy THAT to a blank disk. That will likely yield a good backup installation disk, just in case you need it again. When you place that into a case, be sure to also copy your S/N to a lable on that case.
Good luck, and thanks for reporting your success,
Hunt

  • Need help reinstalling indesign cs5 (master collection)

    I want to know if I put in the original discs...does this override and reinstall the entire collection?  Or is there a way to only reinstall this particular program.  Also there is not one currently to uninstall?

    Hi,
    I am sorry but CS5 is not in sales anymore. If you wish you can go for Creative Cloud which will give additional software including Master Collection and many more features at a very cost effective price.
    You can visit Adobe.com for further details.

  • Adobe CS5 Master Collection System Requirements - A Mistake?

    http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection
    I am a student who purchased Adobe CS5 Master Collection a few weeks back.
    Before purchasing the product I looked at the system requirements at the link above.
    I thought, "Cool! That's not too hectic, I have enough cash to build a computer with those system specs."
    So I went and bought Adobe CS5 Master Collection, all amped up and ready to get a computer for it, excited to start learning the program.
    Looking at different options around the specs, in Adobe's link above, I started asking questions, and soon I was advised by many users that those specs WOULDN'T do it for Adobe CS5 Master Collection.
    Looking at my budget, comparing it to the suggested builds in this Forum, I am now depressed, because the cheapest Budget Build is way out of range of my budget.
    I feel let down, because I purchased a program with the trust that Adobe provided those system requirements SO THAT the program can run nicely on those specs.
    So my question:
    WHY are the system requirements, at the link above, 2GB of RAM (4 or more reccommended) and Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Phenom II, if there are so many warnings on this and other forums that those specs will not be enough? (The Budget Build in this Forum suggests a quad core and 8GB of RAM)
    Does this mean that had I bought a computer going on the specs provided in Adobe's link above, say a Core 2 Duo and 4GB of RAM, that I then would NOT have been able to get started nicely, learning and working with Adobe CS5 Master Collection?

    Thanks for the new article "System requirements for CS5" at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/810750?tstart=0 !
    I really appreciate it very much. I found it very informative and it helped me understand the topic so much better.
    I hope that it will be included in the overview tab for other newbies like me.
    Other articles in this Forum that I found very helpful:

    Now that I have read several articles and discussions in this Forum, my understanding is that the reason why they may "not all seem consistent with each other" is because of the fact that the nature of each one's editing projects vary from one another which have a major impact on the hardware required to run projects effectively. So what works for one does not work for another.
    Yes, at this stage I do indeed find it VERY confusing as a newbie looking to put together a new PC, within my budget.
    However, I understand now that it would be hard for anyone to come up with a list of systems that will guarantee specific performance within specific budgets, because there are too many variables at play.
    The reality is that there are newbies who are just starting out for the first time, having no clue what all Adobe is about and what they can and are going to do with the program.
    I think that newbies like me who have to settle for a very low budget PC at first, just to get started, have to content with the AWARENESS that their system will allow only so much performance and nothing more.
    It would be nice if there were benchmark results of low budget PC's for beginners working with DV and HD, to help them at least not buy utterly useless systems, but systems that, though not super fast, will perform tasks specified in such a benchmark, with an added note that while using such a low budget PC (for the purpose of at least getting started with some projects as newbies/students), they could read about upgrades and start saving their coins for upgrades.
    Thank you for your answer in post 8:

    With a sufficiently capable CPU, no problem, provided you have the right disk I/O system and memory as well, yes.
    Based on the Adobe minimum requirements, no way. Even a single application like PR with AVCHD codec material will effectively come to a halt. Multi-tasking DW and PS is doable on such a system.
    My newbie question:
    With reference to post 7 and 8 above, if you can suggest a CPU, memory and disk I/O system for my present specific need, as described in 7 above, i.e. multi-tasking Dreamweaver, Photoshop and Flash, please do. I will view your suggestion(s) in this case as guide lines.

  • How do I get a copy of Acrobat with my CS5 Master Collection???

    I activated my Adobe CS5 Master Collection (running on Snow Leopard) with a serial number purchased from CDW and everything went smoothly, but after a few days of using the core products I typically use I noticed Acrobat was not included in the installed software.
    Now, Adobe lists Acrobat PRO as an included product in the Master Collection and rightfully so since it contans just about every product they make.
    When I emailed Adobe about this but the only response I got was some  pre-formatted auto-response probably sent to me from the help desk in  India or something. The auto-response said absolutely nothing about how to obtain a copy for the Mac, and just had a link taking me to the Acrobat home page, which basically says there is no trial version of Acrobat for Mac available for download.
    I gave up on it since I do not use Acrobat very much but now I am in a situation where I do need to have Acrobat Pro to finish a job and I cannot figure out how to get a copy installed with the Master Collection.
    There was no disclaimer indicating that you would not be able to get a copy of Acrobat when I purchased the downloadable version vs. buying a boxed DVD set, so I am expecting there must be a way.
    Adobe's help has been pretty much useless when I emailed them, and I cannot find anyone with the same problem on Google or in the Adobe forums, so is there someone out there who can give me the answer or help me?
    If I have to purchase a seperate copy of Acrobat so be it, but since it is supposed to be included with the Master Suite that would be kind of stupid if I have to purchase a copy of Acrobat seperately.
    Thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction!!!

    This is just getting beyond ridiculous...
    AND I can see from several forum threads I am not alone in this issue.
    Adobe, you absolutely SUCK for making it so difficult to install this software. I am normally a fan of Adobe products, but now that you guys have bought out all your competiton you are getting lazy and stupid.
    This is the most ridiculous crap I've ever seen when trying to install a product I PURCHASED!!!!!!!
    So, after over another week (I have been trying to find a way to install Acrobat with my purchased copy of the Master Suite for MONTHS)...  My IT guy finally gets me the installer DMG for Acrobat and now I cannot install it with my master collection because the serial numbers are not the same?
    I never got a god damn serial number for Acrobat Pro when purchasing the master collection.
    Asking Adobe for help is totally worthless and not even worth taking the time to do so because all they give you is some BS pre-recorded response that doesn't help you with JACK...
    It has been a long time since I've had a problem installing a piece of software I PURCHASED.
    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    YOU SERIOUSLY SUCK ADOBE ON THIS ONE!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Notebook Specs for Adobe CS5 Master Collection

    Hi guys, I am currently in process of buying a new notebook.
    I will be running a Adobe CS5 Master Collection and few other programs.
    Can you guys let me know what are best specs that this notebook must have?
    I know Mac is best option but my company is not willing to get one, they are willing to settle for HP / Dell / etc…
    I will need this notebook to handle multiple applications at a time (dreamweaver, illustrator, photoshop, etc etc…).
    I dont want the basic specs, what more can i include to get this notebook running like a super machine?
    eg. 8GB Ram, i7 processor?
    What do you guys advise?
    Thank You

    I was curious about your experience with CS5 Master Collection, since I purchased the CS4 Master Collection more than a year ago.
    I had previously bought the CS3 Master Collection and upgraded.  The original CS3 collection was reasonable to work with because there was a  Disc for each different program.  If you needed to reload a program you could figure it out.  When I upgraded to CS4 which was a decent price, I figured what I would get would be comprehensible in the sense that CS3 was.  What I received was (I believe 5 discs...I don't have them with me) labeled Content
    and Applications.  It wasn't long, because of the general 64-bit confusion, that one of the programs (Acrobat Pro) became corrupted.  I wasn't sure which disc or discs to load.  There are absolutely no instructions or anywhere you can go to find them.  Adobe provides nothing for Master Collection
    owners, or rather up-graders...try sending an email...good luck.  Try calling...to find out how to load a program?  By the way when I try to load one of the Content discs, I get a message that says my laptop, with all the bells and whistles, and which originally accepted the Master Collection, cannot load the software, whatever that means.  I wrote several emails to Adobe asking for help, I'll even pay for it...no answer.  I also subscribe to the Professional Photographers podcast and Adobe is frequently mentioned as having terrible customer service and having over-priced software.  I'm seriously thinking of alternatives, but everyone uses Photoshop, which you're probably better off buying by itself.  Or, you could wait for another frustrated customer to post his/her complaint to the Adobe Forums.  I don't think the Adobe administrators will let this be posted, but please, be forewarned about the terrible customer service.

  • Where can i download adobe cs5 master collection?

    Hi i was looking for old adobe cs5 master collection download not adobe creative suite cs5.5 i have searched every where but still cannot find it.please help me i need it.Warmest regards

    well, seeing as there was no answer here, i called adobe today, appartently adobe decided with the release of 5.5, there are no more trial downloads for cs5.0, i really hate when they do things like this , i can't keep up with everyone else and always get to the products late to try, i'm frustrated and VERY upset by this style of adobe doing these things.  I love to photoshop and learn, but they make it impossible, especially when 5.5 as they told me, was released a month ago.
    It's just so wrong!!
    so, no more downloads for that folks.!!  only cs5.5, and i'm just not able to afford that now *cries*

    The more they spend the faster you will be able to work.  A good processor like an i7, Windows 7 64 bit and at least 4 GB RAM will be a good start, 6 or 8 GB would be good.

    i just wanted to know if i can download the Mac version and use that cereal number to activate it?
    No.
    Serial numbers are Mac only or Windows only. There is a platform swap process (from Mac to PC etc) but only for CS6.
    As a CS5 owner, your choices are to either pay to upgrade to CS6 for Mac or join the Cloud.

  • Error when attempting to update Adobe CS5 Master Collection via Adobe Application Manager

    I have a copy of Adobe CS5 Master Collection running on OS X Yosemite.
    For the last few weeks, anytime that I'm prompted to update CS5, I allow it but it fails.  See the first screenshot below for details.  The second screenshot is the error log file.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

    Bumping this to hopefully get some exposure and replies.  Still getting this error, and not able to update.  Any ideas?

  • Need help with Adobe Premiere Elements 2

    I can drag a large high rez jpeg into timeline. Then when I click to playback....it gets more pixelated. That's a bad beginning. Then, when I go to export it, I've tried several extensions. All look bad during playback on YouTube. This should be pretty simple. High quality jpeg, but is fuzzy in movie. What's going wrong?

    hi Bill -
    ok fine. I have PSDs too. I tried what you said.
    I put a PSD right beside a JPEG in the timeline. I rendered it (which I
    didn't know to do because the instructions don't even mention it. The
    instructions are terrible. Seems it leaves out a lot of info.)
    So, then I click PLAY on my monitor. I see no difference between the PSD
    and the JPEG yet. So, if I want to put this on YouTube, what's the best way
    exactly, without gettting too technical?  It looks like I have the choice
    between Exporting in Mpeg or Quicktime or Windows Media. I think youtube
    likes wmv.

    When you drag the stills to the Timeline, there should be a red line
    above them. Press Enter to Render the Timeline.
     
    Do not know the particulars of PrE 2, but in later versions, you can
    Rt-click on the Program Monitor, and choose Magnification = 100%, rather
    than Fit. You might have to resize your Program Monitor, but check at 100%.
     
    Also remember a few points:
     
    1.) You are looking at a DVD-quality image now, and that was designed
    with low-rez CRT TV's in mind, and NOT hi-rez computer monitors. DVD vs
    hi-rez sources and displays is probably less than what VHS vs DVD was, not
    that long ago.
    2.) You are looking at an emulation, a preview
    3.) Your images have already been compressed to JPEG once, loosing
    quality. That is why I always work in PSD, especially if there has already
    been one JPEG compression, whether in camera, or in the image processing
    stage. I keep JPEG either out of my workflow, or as limited, as is
    possible. Some do not see the quality loss with JPEG compression, but I do,
    and if I can create images that are as good as it gets, I know that my
    clients will be happy.
     
    Good luck,
