Error 2 installing Illustrator CS4 from Web Premium

I've just spent a couple of hours trying to get Adobe Creative Suite 4 Web Premium completely installed on my work PC (the University of St Andrews, UK) using the volume licence key but I get an error when installing it. It says "Done, with errors". When I click on "More Information" I get a message saying:
Adobe Illustrator CS4 LangPack (en_GB)
Error:
Error 2.
and sure enough, everything works apart from Illustrator CS4. I read elsewhere on the forums (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2415634#2415634) about a solution, but I didn't fully understand the steps required.
I'm using an absolutely clean installation of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (just has Windows 7, Office 2007 Professional and now Adobe CS4 Web Premium. It's installed with English (United Kingdom) region settings.
When I run the Adobe Support Advisor it says:
Issue no: id18308
Error UninstallColorProfilesRollback occurs preventing the installer from updating existing color profiles when installing the Adobe Creative Suite 4 product
Click here to read the Knowledge Base article
System Information :
Operating System = Windows 7 Professional
Locale = en
I followed the advice there, but the registry information didn't exist ("Right-click PDF Admin Settings and choose Permissions.") so I couldn't pursue that route.
When I tried to reinstall Illustrator CS4 it said that it was using "English (International)". It still doesn't work.
Any advice would be gratefully received. Or how can I contact Adobe about this directly?
Thanks

Hi Scott.
It was not that I was unwilling to Archive and Install... I didn't catch that in your initial response and that's why I called Apple... because I did understand that the user account was corrupt. Apparently Apple is not aware of the Archive and Install fix either because that was not recommended. I am sure if it was a common fix, they would have told me about it. So, now that you have further explained how Archive and Install work, I am sure that information will be very helpful to someone else with the exact same problem. This problem, for your information, is not uncommon as I found the question many times in my quest to get an answer... so there is indeed an issue that needs to be resolved. Installing this software should have been just as easy as it was to install all the other software on my computer.
I know someone will find your response, in its entirety, very helpful. Again, thank you for your time.
Take care,

Trying to install Illustrator CS4 onto my new PC. Does not recognize serial number.

Got a new PC last week. Trying to reinstall Adobe Illustrator CS4. Put in disc... typed in the serial number as requested, but it is not recognized. Would appreciate any help.
Thanks.

Hi,
Looks like that the version of CS4 which we are installing is an upgrade, If yes you what is the previous qualifying version.
Find the right product and enter the serial number in front of that and bingo it will start working!
Hope it Helps
Thanks

Please let me know what I need to do to get a replacement copy or download.

I need to install photoshop cs4 extended from a disk to a new computer because my old computer had a hard drive crash. There is no serial number on the back of the case. How can I obtain a usable serial number?

Find your serial number quickly
You can activate software without following up and registering it... at least that was the case in the past. The serial number is normally located on the disc case or a box inside the main box. If you did not purchase the disc from Adobe then it is possible you would have dealt with a redemption code, in which case it would have been up to you to keep a record of the serial number, especially if you did not follow up and register the software.

Need Help Installing Flash CS4 For Windows

Hi, I have downloaded the two files to install Flash CS4 for Windows from here: http://helpx.adobe.com/uk/creative-suite/kb/cs4-product-downloads.html
Unfortunately, there is no explanation whatsoever provided regarding how to use the two files, and how to install my product.
I feel like I am missing something obvious here, but can someone please explain.
Kind regards,
Finn.

Try uninstalling then run the Adobe Cleaner Tool
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Then double click the .exe file again.
What do I do with the .7z file?
Nothing. That's is an archive of files used by the .exe file during the installation process.

Need help installing PS CS4 on new Windows 7 laptop

The laptop I had crashed and I bought a new one. Windows 7. Trying to reinstall Photoshop CS4 onto it, but getting error message, "The installer database is corrupt. Contact customer support."
I contacted customer support and was told they no longer offer phone support for CS4 and I'd need to get help in the forum.
Can anyone help me get through this?
Also, I know I'm going to have another issue, because this is an upgrade version and when I first installed it, I had to contact customer support because I was upgrading from an educational version. So would also need help with that.
Please help me with this. Hate to have to just throw out a $500 program.

Welcome to the forum.
First, here is a general article, on installing most Adobe programs: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2703389#2703389
There are some tips, that might prove useful, such as Copying the installation DVD's to the HDD, and trying the install from there.
Also, there is an Installation Forum, that might be useful, if they they have not gone exclusively to CC issues: http://forums.adobe.com/community/download_install_setup?view=discussions
Good luck,

Jake323 I would recommend checking your installation logs for error messages. You can find details on how to locate and interpret your installation log files at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4. You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

Cannot Install Illustrator CS4 Trial or any others?

I have Downloaded and successfully installed Adobe PS, AE, DW and FL with no problem. But I recently tried to download Adobe Premeir and Adobe Illustrator trials and my computer locked up. It would not start correctly and I had to restore my computer to a earlier time. After this I have been able to download the trial files but when the installation bar gets to the end it says that a component of (insert CS4 program here) was unable to install. I have tried many times to install again with other products and with no programs whatsoever open. Did me having to restore my computer have anythign to do with this?

Well, you made a mess! (don't take it personally) Most likely the problems lies within the order in which you installed. There's an intricate web of interdependencies between shared Adobe components across programs and some of that is fragile, to say the least, so it breaks down when one install tries to overwrite or update some of those components. There's a reason, why there is a Master collection. You best bet at this point is to simply use the CS4 Clean Utility from the support pages to unregister all installer files from the database, then simply install the programs that so far you weren't able to get on your system. You can repeat this after every install or when something seems to have gone wrong, it really leaves the programs in place intact. The only downside is, that when you want to get rid of it, you will have to manually delete all directories....

Need help installing Bridge CS4 gallery in DW CS4

I've spent days trying to find out how to put a gallery I created in Bridge CS4 into Dreamweaver CS4. Bridge created a folder filled with a lot of files, including image files and an index.html file. How do I insert these into my DW page? I'm fairly new to Dreamweaver and need the specific steps laid out for me. Thanks.

Greetings,
Copy the entire folder to your web root in the Dreamweaver CS4 and create a HTML page from your template, name it "gallery" then open the Dreamweaver CS4 if not already opened, click to open the files of your website at the right hand Corner of the Dreamweaver CS4 page or windows > files to open it; search for the folder of the gallery open it and copy the .swf player file to the space you have created on the gallery page save the page then press F12 on your keyboard or file > preview in browser and choose your browser to view your gallery. You could resize it after all that. It worked for me on my new web design. Good luck.
Best regards,

How can I install the program with the least amount of options? I can't uncheck Extension Manager and ExtendScript Toolkit? Are they required?

Yes they are required components hence installer does not lets you de select them. You can only deselect AIR, Device Central, Adobe Drive and Adobe media player at the time of install
