Offline installer for CC Desktop / Server availability issues.

This is a follow up to the issue described here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5620240#5620240
As we have to install CC Desktop on each of the systems deploying CS6 packages, I'm looking for an offline installer for it. Is such a thing available?
The reasons I ask are that A) There's no guarantee that the machine will have internet access during the installation. and B) Half the time I run it on a desktop, I get an error message telling me "The remote server is not responding in a proper manner"; my response to which was similarly improper...
My "Deployment" such as it is now relies on users copying the file form a network share on to their desktops, running it individually and hoping that the server is online. Not fun when you've got 50 artists across 5 studios wanting to get these packages installe; and that's only so I can proceed to the wheel-of-fortune that is the AAMEE-produced MSI package.
Are these server availability issues commonplace? Is this just one of those things that afflicts all software launches that rely too heavily on online components?

Hi Terry,
If it's helpful, you can find and use all the original offline installers for all Creative Cloud and CS6 tools (including the CC Desktop App) here:
Adobe CC Direct Download Links
and/or
Adobe CS6 Direct Download Links
If you have those files in hand then you can install the free trials anywhere while being offline.  In most cases the Internet is used to activate the software longer-term, although Adobe still provides procedures for offline activation:
Activate your software offline
If the computer on which your software is installed cannot connect to the Internet or to Adobe’s activation servers, you can activate your software offline.

  • Offline installer for Lion Server? Can it be done?

    Hi guys,
    /rant
    Before I get to the topic of this post let me state, the claimed download size for Lion Server is WAAAAAY off the +14MB they say it is. I have reinstalled it few times now and this time around I monitored the download and it came in at the +200MB mark!!! Sure, maybe the initial installer is only 14MB but it pulls down another +200MB when setting it up. Why is this not mentioned on the App Store page? Surely we should be told about such a large additional download.
    /end rant
    Can anyone tell me if its possible to make an offline installer for Lion Server, in the same way that it can be done for the Lion client?
    I have been tinkering with it a lot and have had to reinstall a few times and would prefer to not have to download 200MB everytime I screw something up, if it can be avoided.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi defecta,
    i have the same problem. I had to install a new server with lion at the cusomers site in a heavy military bunker below earth and no internet around. I was allowed to bring the server up to surface and give it internet with a myfi. As you can imagine it took some hours to download on a bad mobile connection out in the woods. I do know i have to install that server from scratch after it has been tested.
    Have you or anyone else been able to capture the download? Is there a place to get an offline install package, a DVD or Stick. Sadly its to late now to image that server after fresh install.

  • Where is the download link for SCEP Client Offline installer for x86 & x64 altest greatest version (4.6.305 as of today)

    Where is the download link for SCEP Client Offline installer for x86 & x64 latest greatest version (4.6.305 as of today)?
    The answer IS NOT IT AND NEVER WILL BE "DOES NOT EXIST"!!!!!! MUST NEVER NEED TO RUN UPDATES TO GET IT!!!!!!!!! THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE ANSWER IS THE LINK!!!!! DUH GET YOUR ACT IN GEAR MS!!!!!!!!!!
    Ralph

    Thanks to all for the information. I work in higher ed. We have SCCM latest version, fully licensed. Unfortunately the individual who manages the SC does not have a clue as to where to find the SCEP installer. I sent him links from MS that shows him where
    it is supposed to be. The version he say's is on our SC Management server is 4.3. I, in the past, was able to get 4.5 independent of him and it has been working well for me but it is time to use the latest greatest version instead. I should just as easily
    be able to get 4.6. As far as licensing goes, if the product was correctly designed it should just work itself out just like it does for the 4.5 version I was able to easily find and download.
    As for the link given by KevinMJohnston, thanks by the way, its the closest I have come to getting what I need but all I get is a spinning wheel in Firefox, the only browser one should ever need. In IE I get prompted for an email address, which it should
    NEVER EVER DO!!!!!!!!!! I did give them my address, but alas, after waiting over 30 mins. I still don't have a link to the update or the CU4 Config MGR update mentioned. (Another reason I am not very nice to MS, along with, see below...) Please send me the
    link that they are suppose to send me in the email.
    As for the intensity of the request it comes from not being able to find the update on my own. (Amongst a million other complaints as MS makes my job harder and harder, just think of all the lost productivity and extra repair efforts needed because MS stopped
    allowing you to do upgrade/repair installs from the install discs. You have to have a working OS to do it, or you will lose your settings etc and will have to re-install all of your software etc. How STUPID IS THAT! Can't use it to fix a blown driver or BSOD
    problem like you could in XP.  There is no excuse for that, I know better. So you can see why I have nothing good to say about MS etc etc.) There is no excuse for that! If the MS updater has it available then IT MUST BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR STANDALONE DOWNLOAD
    PERIOD. That goes for ALL updates PERIOD.  I use these updates and many others etc so that once I seal an image for a PC it has the latest greatest version of everything. It is quicker to get it stand alone in advance and installing than waiting for MS
    updates to do so. Also I prefer to config my images so that the Av installs after first boot. These are cloned PCs. Many of these PC are used in labs and are frozen. Here, the settings for the SCEP AV being pushed from above can cause major problems for the
    users i.e. the scheduled scan feature. If it is on when students are taking tests and they take more than 5 or 10 mins on question MS is stupid enough to start scanning causing the system to become unresponsive. This has caused students to breakdown in tears
    thinking the system is hosed and they just lost their tests. I have to do some creative reg hack, setting owner as "Guest", a disabled account, etc. to keep these settings from being changed. (Our SC managers push policies that work for the faculty
    but break the lab systems which are frozen, so I have to out hack them, should not be, but it is, we are trying to get that fixed, but bureaucracy and people afraid to share power etc makes it hard.)  These settings unfortunately will prevent the AV from
    installing so I need to be able to manually do it after I have set the reg to allow it.  And I could go on. Who knows when or why someone may need to do a manual update of something. I just had 3 systems fail 12 updates, yet when I manually downloaded
    them and installed them they ALL installed without failure. I did NOTHING in between the auto update and the manual, yet it was the manual way that worked. Maybe if MS could fix those kind of issues then no one would need to get stand alone update files.)
    That is not for MS to worry about. It is, however, their responsibility to make it so that I can choose what will work best for my environment, which only I could know. DUH. I have had issues in the past with MS AV and other brands being installed before "sealing"
    the images. etc. etc. etc.
    As you can see, there is not enough space on the world wide web to list all thousands of legitimate reasons to give Microsoft a hard time so I will do so on a case by case bases knowing I am probably spitting in to the wind, but hey somebody has to have
    the guts to do it. MS MUST NEVER BE ALLOWED TO SIMPLY GET AWAY WITH IT! They Must be called to the proverbial carpet.
    Maybe if people who are MVPs would not be afraid to join the choruses they would be embarrassed, (though it should be done out of moral obligation not embarrassment), enough to fix these obviously fixable problems etc. etc. etc. I have over 30 years in the
    IT business, the IBM XT did not exist until my senior year in college. You are not going to be able to convince me that there is a legitimate reason, copy protection IS NOT IT, to prevent me from fixing blown OS via re-install using install disc when OS will
    not boot. Nor are you going to be able to find legitimate reason for the SCEP 4.6.305 update to be so hard to get.
    Thanks again for the help, still waiting for email from MS, NOT COOL MS! NO EXCUSE!!!!!

  • 11.2.0.2 Grid Installation for a Standalone Server FAILED!

    OS: OEL-5.5 x86_64 (kernel-2.6.18-194.17.4.0.1.el5, glibc-2.5-49.el5_5.7)
    Product: Oracle 11gR2 (11.2.0.2.0) x86_64 for Linux
    Hi,
    I was trying to perform a clean and full 11.2.0.2 installation for a Standalone Server (Single database + ASM + Restart), but unlike 11.2.0.1, this standalone patch, shipped as set of full installation files, has serious flaws mainly due to insane installation and configuration scripts. My environment is as follows:
    ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle
    ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1
    GRID_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid
    all owned by oracle:dba. ASMLib was configured with four 256 GB partitions on four physical disks.
    1. During grid installation the Prepare, Copy files, Link binaries, Setup files, Execute Root Scripts (root.sh), Update Inventory, Oracle Net Configuration Assistant all succeeded, but ASM Configuration Assistant FAILED and installation couldn't continue. That was because root.sh script (and inside it calling scripts) changed the ownership of ORACLE_BASE and GRID_HOME to root:dba, so that admin and diag directories creations in ORACLE_BASE were not permitted. After fixing that manually as root (immediately after executing root.sh), the installation continues and succeeds.
    2. During installation of Client software the error message window appears stating that cannot find the /opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/oui/bin/runInstaller.var file. By pressing the Continue button the installation continues ignoring this.
    3. If Oracle Scheduler Agent is selected for installation during Client software installation, the Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control Release 11.2.0.2.0 cannot start (https problem - cannot establish connection). To fix this, I had to deinstall Client software and install it again without Oracle Scheduler Agent.
    4. The Performance window in Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control Release 11.2.0.2.0 cannot display any graph ("Initializing" and "Transferring data from localhost..." never end).
    Are those issues known issues? If they are, why did Oracle ship that standalone patch without testing it before? Given that prior release (11.2.0.1) was free of any errors above, it is really beyond me to figure out this negligence.

    Are those issues known issues? Have you created service request ? That would be much better to be sure about the workaround you found.

  • Adobe Reader Offline Installer for 11.0.05?

    Hi,
    I've been trying to obtain the offline installer for the latest update.  However, the website is only listing 11.0.04.   Is there a way to get 11.0.05?
    I've cleared the cache and used different browsers so I don't think it is a local cache issue.
    Thanks,

  • When a PeopleTools installer for Windows 7 is available?

    I recently installed Windows 7 on my computer. The PeopleTool installer (pscfg.exe) can install the files on the computer, but it won't create the program group and shortcuts in the Start->All Programs because the script looks for some registry keys that are not in Windows 7 registry and Windows 7 does not have the "Start->All Programs" directory in user's home directory. I would like to know when the installer for Windows 7 is available?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for your help.Peopletools 8.19 on Windows 7 ? There is about 8-10 years between the release of these two softwares, that does not surprise me you have issues by trying this. I don't thing that's a good idea to do that, furthermore, that's not supported. Lastly, the Windows Home edition have never been supported neither independantly of the version we're talking about.

  • Has the ODI same installable for both Client & Server?

    Has the ODI same installable for both Client & Server?
    i.e. Team with multiple developers is concurrently working on ODI project. Repository is very much same. They just need the Designer Module in their desktop.
    Is there separate installable for development IDE for ODI (Designer Module) instead of complete ODI which may include the server also?
    Thanks In Advance

    Hi ,
    You can install only the client in multiple machine if multiple user are going use/share the same repository ... and you should be having the same
    snps_login_work.xml
    snps_login_security.xml
    in all your client installations....so that you can have multiple users created and share the same repositroy ...
    hope this helps

    I'm trying to download offline installer of latest Adobe Reader for bulk installations on PCs in my company. It used to be simple and last version I got was 11.02.

    which is the generic page asking me to apply to distribute Reader, which I just did.. "Adobe Reader 9" suggest that those automatic emails are quite outdated now, can anyone help?

  • Staff: Why is there no offline installer for 10.1.5? The patch doesn't work for me.

    Hi, I'm trying to update Adobe Reader 10.1.4 on a 32-bit Windows XP SP3 computer to Adobe Reader 10.1.5. The Adobe Reader Updater downloaded the update but it tells me:
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable"
    It's looking for AdbeRdr1010_en_US.msi in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\ARM\Reader_10.0.1\ but it can't find it.
    Normally in a situation like this I could just download the offline installer, and as an enterprise user I want to do that anyway. Yet it appears there's no offline installers in ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.5/ like for example AdbeRdr1015_en_US.exe or AdbeRdr1015_en_US.msi. On Adobe's pages for both enterprise and home users it only offers 10.1.4 as the older version prior to 11, not 10.1.5 as one would expect.
    What's going on with this? Am I the only one who's noticed either of these things? I suppose on that one computer I'll have to download AdbeRdr1010_en_US.msi and place it in that directory where the patch is looking for it.
    Thanks for any help

    edit: here's a screenshot of the error: http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/7294/capturessl.png

    Howdy,
    I'm not sure what you mean by an offline installer, but the available updates, the admin guide, and the release notes are all correct. 10.1.5 is an update (MSP). It is not a full installer. As stated in the doc, full installers are not always provided. Also, full installers or updates don't have any online dependency.
    You can install 10.1.5 over that last relevant msi/exe. That's 10.1.4 for some languages but usually 10.1.
    Alternatively, you can get a non-enterprise installer from the Reader Download Center. You can probably expand the exe to get to an MSI. That's an atypical route most enterprise admins have not found a need to travel.
    10.1.6 will also only be an MSP update.
    hth,

  • Where can I get a full offline installer for App-v 4.6 Client with sp3 integrated?

    Hi there
    I’m looking for a link to download the app-v client installation files, with the latest service pack integrated.
    We currently have to deploy 4.6Sp1, then apply updates to the client to get it to 4.6 sp3.
    Is there an offline installer available with the SP3 binaries already slipstreamed in?
    Cheers
    Max

    No.
    If you have access to the Microsoft VL site, you'll find the latest App-V binaries in the MDOP ISO. What ever is there is what's available.

  • Offline Installer for Macbook Air 2011 & Mac Mini 2011

    I understand that Macbook Air 2011 and Mac Mini 2011 uses a pre-installed OS X Lion with a different build number (11A2063).
    However, it seems that with 10.7.2 , there is only 1 build number: 11C74 , as per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1633 , does it mean that 10.7.2 is a unified version of the OS X Lion for all mac products?
    Therefore, would it be possible to purchase & download the Lion Installer from Mac App Store , extract the InstallESD.dmg and use it as a offline Lion installer for Macbook Air 2011 / Mac mini 2011?
    P.S. I am seeking an offline solution because the recovery partition has been damaged, the internet recovery doesn't work (error 3403F & 4403F), and the recovery disk I have created with http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1433 showed an error "could not find installation information for this machine". And the Apple Authorized Service Providers are charging $150 for a simple restoration of the recovery partition.

    "does it mean that 10.7.2 is a unified version of the OS X Lion for all mac products?"
    Yes.
    "Therefore, would it be possible to purchase & download the Lion Installer from Mac App Store , extract the InstallESD.dmg and use it as a offline Lion installer for Macbook Air 2011 / Mac mini 2011?"
    I don't believe there is a 10.7.2 stand alone installer. 10.7.2 is an update file.
