OS X Lion - Can't Install Adobe CS 5.5

Add this to the growing list of problems I'm having since "upgrading" to Lion yesterday...
After the upgrade, my Adobe CS 3 apps would no longer run. I received a prompt telling me that "licensing had stopped working" and I needed to uninstall and re-install the Adobe software.
Instead, I opted to finally upgrade to CS 5.5. However, after going through all of the install steps and got to the standard "enter password to allow Setup changes" (paraphrasing), I fell into a "do-loop". After entering my user name and password, the same dialog popped back up. I entered it several times thinking it might want it for each application in the Suite...I stopped somewhere above 25 times.
I tried selecting just a single application rather than the entire Suite, but got the same result. I created a new Admin account and tried the install with that, but also got the same result. I also booted in Safe Mode and tried the install... same result.
I am posting this here rather than the Adobe site since I have recently installed CS 5.5 upgrades on pre-Lion sytems recently with no issues.
Any thoughts?

I think and hope (I did not update to Lion yet) that it is just a Java issue. My understanding is that Java is required by Adobe CS install, and that Lion does not install it by default anymore (so, you have to select it).
So, try to install Java in your Lion install, and then run the installer.
Hope this help

How can i install adobe flash player on my i mac OSX lion

I just bought an I mac that runs on OSX 10.7.2 lion and cannot install Adobe flash player 10,0. I need it for looking to Youtube videos
Can anybody help me?
Charles

The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Version 11.0.1.152 onwards is for Lion.
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Can you install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on a 2012 Macbook Air running Lion?

Can you install Adobe Creative Suite CS3 on a 2012 Macbook Air running Lion?

Are you talking about adobe creative cloud?
If you are, the Adobe Creative Cloud give you most of Adobe's tools (and all that most would need) to do anything. I will warn you about this though, is that it is a subscription, and you are basically renting it. that means you really do not own it.
About the hard disk space, all Adobe apps seem to take up at least a GB (and this does not matter if you get the master collection or the Creative Cloud). so ether way, it will take some space.
Also, if you want to try-before-you-buy, you can go to creative.adobe.com, and get a free account and try out all of he adobe apps available for creative cloud. The best part of it, your apps will be updated to CS7 (if or when it comes out) instead of buying the apps again in your subscriptions. if you need even more information, you can go to adobe's site to find out more (www.adobe.com)

Browser out of date and can't install Adobe Flash Player

My browser is out of date according to everything I am visiting. I can't post pictures on twitter, some of the videos I watch have blocked plug-ins, and I can't install adobe flash player. My computer is a MacBook Pro 10.6.4, and I would like to keep Safari. Can someone direct me to where I get the newest version of Safari and why I cannot install Adobe Flash Player. I have installed, uninstalled, and done everything I know to do to get this problem resolved. Next step is take it to the Apple store as I am not a tech person. Thanks for any assistance.

Upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1. Upgrade further:
Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

Can I install Adobe Reader to a drive other than the C: drive?

Hello there,
Welcome to Adobe Community. Yes it can be installed on a different drive. Though some of the files installed by it will still be installed on C: drive.
When you run the installer, use 'Change destination folder' at the bottom of the panel
If you already have Adobe Reader installed on the C: drive, you must uninstall it before installing a new version on a different location.
Thanks!

Can I install Adobe Creative Cloud in more than one computer with the individual plan?
The team plan means that I have to pay for US$70 for each computer that i want to install the creative cloud even if I am the only user?

Hi heymarusia,
Yes, you can install and activate Creative Cloud desktop applications on two computers, regardless of operating system, for the individual associated with the Creative Cloud membership. See the product license agreements page for more information.

LG MAXIMO ONE can't install Adobe Air

Hi
Actually my problem is simple. I can't install Adobe Air Runtime in my device because I can't find it.
I've search for Air Apps in the Market and install a few. In the opening screen they all ask to install Adobe Air, when I search it just isn't found.
Is this my phone problem or the Adobe Air runtime is out of the market?
I am using Mac OSX Leopard. any tips on how to install it?
Thanks for any tip.

HI
I also can't find AIR in the marjet using HTS wildfire. This device comes with Android 2.1 and the 2.2.1 update was available which i did the update.
After that I tryed to find the Air in the Market and also can't find it.
Because this device comes also with flash player I thought that it would be able to run Air.
Is there any possibility to install air in this thing?
Thanks

How can I install Adobe Acrobat without installing the browser extensions?

Hello All,
I am a computer Technician at a high school and we have very strict browser requirements for different services. We need to use Adobe Acrobat to convert PDF's, and other tasks, and we need to use Chrome to open Adobe Reader files. The issue is that I want my 3 browsers (Chrome, IE, Firefox) to open PDF files using Adobe Reader XI. All my plugin settings are correct to use Adobe Reader to open PDF's, but it either downloads a PDF to the computer, or opens up in the browsers default reader (Chrome does this), or opens up to a blank page with a blank error message. I went into the programs Internet settings for Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat and it's telling me the browser opens them up using Adobe Acrobat (With no option to change the setting). The problem is only solved when I uninstall Adobe Acrobat.Then I am able to open PDF's in Adobe Reader just like I want (but this gets rids of Acrobat). This leads me to believe that when I install Adobe Acrobat, there is a registry key or something that is telling the computer to open PDF's in browsers using Acrobat. My initial question is this: How can I install adobe Acrobat without linking it to the browser. I JUST want Adobe Acrobat as a program installed on the computer.
Additional Info:
- I build a computer image and use that image on several computers. This issue persists with all of the computers I installed the image on.
- I am using Adobe Reader 11 (Now DC, but I am willing to use either) and Adobe Acrobat Pro CS3 (I think it's version 9?)
Thanks for the help.
- Charlie
