PE 9 always fails when installing shared technologies.

I even paid for it (I know theres no diffrence) but I always get the same error (Adobe Premiere elements failed to install shared technologies. Rolling back changes). I have windows 7 x64 And after 3 HOURS of waiting of the phone for a rep, I decided not to contact them for any info. PE 7 installed fine, but they don't work on windows 7.

Use task manager to see if you have any other Adobe software running in the background - Adobe Bridge is often the culprit for these installation errors. If you find anything running then use End Process.

  • Install of Elements trial fails when installing Shared Technologies

    Have tried installing the Elements 10 trial on both an XP Pro and a Win7 Pro PC and have the same problem.
    Install of trial fails when installing Shared Technologies and then rolls back the install of the Elements Organiser.
    Anyone seen this before?   Any ideas?

    Can you please make your question a seperate thread?
    It would be helpful if you could please provide us the install log for it. Install logs can be found at C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers\ with name Elements STI Installer 1.0 <date>.log.gz
    Use a decompression utility such as Winzip to uncompress the .gz file. Once uncompressed, you will have a new file without the .gz extension. The filename could now be something like "Elemens STI Installer 1.0 11-21-2012.log."
    Open the .log file using notepad
    Copy the whole log and paste it here.

  • When trying to install Elements 10 I get message saying failed to install: shared technologies.

    I make it almost all the way through installation and at the end I get a message saying installation could not be completed, failed to install shared technologies. What does this mean? How can I fix it?

    See if this troubleshooting guide helps. It has a section on shared technologies:

  • Fail to Install - Shared Technologies

    I am also having a problem installing PSE 10. 
    I previously had PSE 8 installed and just started having problems with it automatically shutting down without warning.  This problem started today, and it is strange because I've been using it every day for months and had no problems before. 
    Tonight, I tried installing PSE 10 but received the following error "The wizard was interrupted before PSE 10 could be completely installed.  Below mentioned application has failed to install:  Shared Technologies"
    I deactivated and uninstalled PSE 8, and still could not get PSE 10 to install because of the Shared Technologies not installing. 
    I have CS5 Design Premium on this computer.  Do I need to uninstall that as well?

    Shared technologies usually refers to Flash, Adobe AIR or PDF handling stuff, so yes, uninstall each and every bit of Adobe software on your system, run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and Acrobat Cleaner Tool and possibly all the relevant fixes for Flash/ Adobe AIR and start over.

  • PSE 11 Fails to Install - Shared Technologies Error

    When installing Photoshop Elements 11 on a Windows 7 computer, the install fails while installing the Organizer. The error message refers to installing Shared Technologies.
    The PC in question has PSE 10 installed and CS5. Based on previous experience, I tried ending the CS5 Bridge process, which has caused problems in the past.
    I have tried multiple times with the same result.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    You may need to install from a new user account.

  • PE 9 Fails to Install Shared Technologies - Adobe Support Stumped!

    I'm having the same problem as reported in the now closed thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/725863?tstart=0.
    During installation, Photoshop Elements 9 installs Elements, then installs Organizer.  When it gets to the point to install Shared Technologies, it stops the install and rollsback (uninstalls everything).
    I've scoured the Internet and have not found a solution.  Spent 5 hours on phone with two Adobe support people - they cannot figure out what to do.
    This is a brand new laptop running Windows 7 64-bit.  No other Adobe products are installed, so there are no processes to kill (as suggested to look for in the above post link).
    I've tried the Adobe diagnostics utility noted in other posts on the Web.  It was useless.
    I've created new user accounts with Administrative rights. Still no luck.
    I've got anti-virus and firewall turned off as well.
    Now Adobe tells me they need to have 2nd level support contact me, which will probably take a week.
    I am at wits end and about to write Adobe off.
    If anybody has any suggestions, please help.
    Thanks!

  • Unable to install Elements 10. The Wizard failed to install Shared Technologies. Please help.

    After PC repair I am unable to re-install Photoshop Elements 10 from a bundled disc as the Wizard was interupted. The Shared Technologies failed to install.
    I am using Windows XP Pro. I have been struggling with this problem for 6 weeks now and would very much appreciare some help.

    Hallo Vibrant
    Thank you for your concern and interest.
    I am trying to reload Photoshop Elements 10 and Premier Elements 10 from a bundled disc, after a PC repair. These programs worked perfectly before the problems with my PC.
    I do not get a specific error.
    The program runs through the process including loading the serial number until, just when I think that the programs are fully loaded I get the following message.
    Installation Wizard Completed
    The Wizard was interrupted before Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 could be completely installed.
    The below mentioned application failed to install.
    Shared Technologies.
    I am signed on as the Administrator whilst trying to install the software.
    I don't know if the folder/files are locked.
    I have run the Microsoft Fix It program and that reports that there are no problems.
    I will try the link that you were kind enough to supply tomorrow. Thank you.
    Best Regards

  • Surface Pro 3, Win 8.1. Adobe PremElem12 & PhotoshopElem12: roll back error when installing shared technologies

    I'm a technical user of Macs,Windows machines.  Attempting to install the above software on a new Surface Pro3, Win8.1.  I'm setup as an administrator (only user) I've attempted about 2hrs worth of attempted loads with the same error.  I've attempted all forum items, shut off Win Defender, changed admins, deleted PDAppflex.swf and PDAppflex-app.xml, all useless attempts.  I get the feeling, I've wasted $$, appears this is a rampant wide problem.  I can't even imagine if others are going through this.

    Blairjamel please see Install rollback and Shared Technologies | Windows for information on how to resolve your current error.

  • Photoshop Elements 12 fails while installing shared technologies.

    Elements 12 install fails during install of Adobe Organizer. No indication of problems in the logs, just fails and rolls back. Near as I can tell the folks at adobe don't know what the real problem is, they only have a long series of very complicated and arcane tricks that _might_ "fix" the problem. I have tried all of them in every imaginable combination and still can't get elements 12 to install. I have installed stock, plain vanilla win7, applied hotfixes, tried to install and it still fails.
    I repeat. This install failed for me in an identical fashion on a clean win7 box.
    Any software that requires even one of these hack measures to install should be sent back to the shop for more testing. I've been told variously to try all these things, and more!
    copy the installer to the root of c:
    Delete this folder or that folder
    Make a new admin account and install with that
    Edit the registry
    Turn off services in msconfig
    Install in safe mode
    What would be most helpful for me right now would be either 1) a patch to fix this critical install error or 2) explicit explanation from Adobe about what the real problem is so I can fix it myself.
    I'm a little edgy, sorry for the tone. This is the single worst install experience I've ever encountered.

    Hi Jeff,
    To follow up, I had an adobeconnect session today with a very competent and friendly adobe tech. It looks like we have resolved the issue. He said there was some kind of problem with air and/or bridge not keeping their files updated, not 100% on that part so don't quote me. He said one way to fix is to completely uninstall anything adobe and start from scratch. The other option is a little hackish, but it works for me and saves me the trouble of completely redoing the install. To follow up here are the steps to get this working, ymmv:
    - Go through the Adobe Premiere Elements 12 install process up to the point where installing shared components crashes. Do not click OK.
    - Start the task manager (ctrl+alt+del)
    - Go to the processes pane and kill msiexec.exe*32 process, the adobe installer should die.
    - Delete the Adobe Premiere Elements 12 link that's created on the Desktop. Do not use this link, it points to the Welcome screen and crashes.
    - Also delete C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 12\Adobe Premiere Elements 12.exe, for same reason as above.
    - The exe that works is in that same directory called "Adobe Premiere Elements.exe", it doesn't go to the welcome screen and it does seem to work.
    - Now it requires Adobe Application Manager to run, and we just killed the installer so you have to go grab it from:
         http://www.adobe.com/appsmanager
    - You don't even have to actually run it, just download and install and you're good (If you do run it it updates itself to Adobe Creative Cloud which has unknown consequences).
    - Now run Adobe Premiere Elements.exe and plug in your adobe id
    - ftw, should be good to go.
    I tried this on 3 different machines. The installer broke identically on all and this procedure got it working. NB - Organizer apparently still isn't installed, but that doesn't bother me. Not sure if this will impact long term operations.
    Thanks for your assistance, this does seem to be working for me now.

    rename OOBE Folder to OOBE.old.

  • PSE 9 install on Windows 7 (32 bit) fails due to "shared technologies"

    I'm installing this older version of elements because it came bundled with an Epson scanner that I just purchased.
    The install works fine on other computers running Windows 7.
    My computer also has the following Adobe products loaded:
    Acrobat Pro 9
    Acrobat Reader 11
    Contribute CS4 (and associated apps like Bridge CS4)
    How can I find out what is stopping the "shared technologies" part of the installation to fail?
    This happens way at the end of the installation. Everything is installed but then gets rolled back when the shared technologies failure occurs.

    See if any of the solutions here help:

  • Am trying to reinstall photoshop elements/premiere elements 9 back on my pc but when it gets to installing shared technologies it freezes and then rolls back.

    I don't know what is going on with this. Photoshop worked but the premiere elements suddenly kept freezing so I un installed and am trying to reinstall but keep having the same issue. This is from a purchased dvd set. At one point when it got to this phase, the dvd started making an odd noise then roll back. I try again and again with no odd noise but still the same issue. It's not the pc I've had that remotely checked and other stuff installs. What gives? I NEED this fixed pronto

    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 running on? For now, for the details below, I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
    You are experiencing the known Shared Technology installation error syndrome which can hit any version of Premiere Elements on any computer operating system. There is no one fix. Lots of home remedies.
    The fix that has worked for me consistently lately is this:
    Local Disc C
    Program Files (x86)
    Common Files
    Adobe
    and in the Adobe Folder is the OOBE Folder. Rename the OOBE Folder from OOBE to OLDOOBE. Close out of there and try for the Premiere Elements 9 installation again. (Do not forget to do the Premiere Elements 9.0.1 Update after you have finished the Premiere Elements 9 installation.)
    The following is a sampling of what some others have gone through with this particular error
