Error when installing CS6 on Mac

I just bought a new Macbook Pro along with the Adobe CS6 Design & Web Premium. Nothing has been installed on the Mac yet and I tried to install CS6. Each time I came up with the error "The product you are trying to install is not an Adobe Geniune Software and appears to be counterfeit. Please report piracy or contact customer support for assistance." I've registered and gotten a serial number for it. I've also bought CS5 for Windows before and have never run into this problem. I bought the software yesterday at the college bookstore so it "shouldn't" be a counterfeit! Is this a problem with the bookstore or Adobe?

System Requirements

Not sure how helpful this is, many moons later, but I was recently bloodied the same way (CS6 on 10.8.5) and found the only way to go through was to uninstall everything and run the CC Cleaner, found under #3 at
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
(DMG is at http://helpx.adobe.com/content/dam/help/en/support/AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool.dmg)
However, once you run that I found I had to run the CS6 Installer a couple of times, selectively deselecting installed apps and also customizing apps such as Photoshop and Illustrator NOT to install the recommended Font Set, etc.
Sorry to say I didn't take a screen shot to share.
Hopefully, this will assist some of the far too many who seem to have been hamstrung by the Installer. Very drastic way to drive people to CC, Adobe. ;-)

Bootstrapper error when installing cs6 on windows 8

please help icant intall CS6 to my Windows 8.1

Dear Jeff - Thanks for that - I had seen those notes on the adobe help site, but, the instructions given don't seem to apply exactly to Windows 8.1 as when I looked them up, I couldn't find the network path specified in the help document you reference:
Windows 32 bit (XP, Vista, 7): \Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\
Windows 64 bit (XP, Vista, 7): \Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\
because on my windows 8.1 machine, in the "Adobe" folder there was no "installer" folder.
Since I wasn't sure how to find the error log, My first "Troubleshooting" move was to de-install the program (Adobe Design Standard CS6) and then re-download the file from the adobe site here: http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html
However, at the moment, the problem seems to be ok, so I guess that perhaps that fixed the problem? Fingers crossed!
For future reference (or in case someone else is looking at this posting with a similar issue?) do you know how to find the error log on an installation on Windows 8.1? Thanks!

Powerpc error when installing on intel mac, powerpc error when installing on intel mac

Trying to reinstall some software that used to work & no I receive the following error: “Spyder3Pro_Installer” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. This happened on another application I was attempting to install as well.

Thank you for the reply, but I was able to fix it. I'm sorry, I guess I didn't explain it well. The apps were not for a powerpc & the mac is an intel. For some reason the apps thought it was a ppc, so I'm not sure what happened. I had Mountain Lion installed & the apps were working fine until the crash. Just trying to put everything back & I get this error. There is another app that I get the same error on, but not sure if the fix will be that easy.

Error when installing ICQ for Mac

Today I attempted to install the official ICQ messenger for Mac (which I downloaded here: http://download.icq.com/download/mac/en ) but the installation of the .air file failed and asked me to contact the software creator for a new installation file.
Recommended system requirements:
Mac OS X v10.4.9 or later (ok)
Flash 10 and above (ok)
Adobe Air 2.5 (ok)
The system.log shows the following error:
========================================================================

========================================================================
So it's quite obvious that the package signature failed. However, I was able to install this messenger on another machine successfully, so I'm wondering why it always fails for this MacBook.

First of all, thanks for your answer. No I've had no previous versions of ICQ installed on this system, it's a brand new MacBook.
It should be the same version since they apparently didn't update it since 2011. It actually still works on the other machine but I can't seem to get it working on this one.
I re-downloaded the installer like 5 times but it always returned the same error message, unfortunately. The package signature validation continues failing all the time.

Error when installing CS6 Master collection

Hi,
I had installed without any problem CS6 MC on my PC but yesterday I bought a new SSD and decided to uninstall it of my HDD in order to reinstall it on the SSD. But now I can't install it anymore as the install stops at 2% every time with this error :
Exit Code: 34
Summary
- 1 fatal error(s), 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)
FATAL: Payload '{0A1E2FE2-B2AD-42F4-9C74-641853FB093A} Photoshop Camera Raw 7 6.0.98.0' information not found in Media_db.
I have tried to reinstall it thousand times.
I already have found two spanish topics in this forum but the solution given doesn't work for me as it is "Uninstall the ACR 7.1 Beta." and I don't have any adobe software on my PC anymore. I tried to clean my registry and all that but I'm not very good at it and I don't want to do something wrong.
Thank you.

Well that was what I did yesterday (I'm in GMT+2). Therefore a tried the installation another time today and it failed again.
http://www.mediafire.com/?obukjt9z8w7wss8
Whenever I tried the installation, I also noticed that Photoshop won't install so it might be related. Here is a screenshot :
http://www.zupmage.eu/up/1338111910.png
And it says that there is a previous installation of Photoshop which is either incompatible or preliminary, and that in order to install PS I have to uninstall the other version. But the thing is that I don't have any other version and that my registry don't show any sign of it. So I don't know how the installer knows if I have another installation but that might help.

Error when Installing Elements 4 Mac OS 10.9

Trying to install OEM Elements 4 on new iMac 27, OS 10.9. Repeatedly fails after copying files. This CD was supplied by Canon with 8800F scanner. I used the scanner with Windows Elements successfully for a year or two. Now have moved to Intel iMac and am trying to install the Mac version of Elements, which I would very much like to use. Can you please suggest possible answers.

Hi davetb951,
Please try copying the CD content to your Mac HD and then try installing it. Please let us know if it helps.
