Photoshop 6 & 7 does not install under Windows 7 Home Premium

I recently updated from Vista Home Premium SP2 to Windows 7 Home Premium.
Now I need to re-install my Adobe Photoshop 6 to be able to upgrade to Photoshop 7.
When I try to run the Adobe setup.exe as administrator, setup starts, the cpu load goes up but
then the setup disappears without error message.
I tried all the different compatibility modes (Win95, 98, 2000, xp, Vista) - no success.
Can anybody help please?

Hi Bineesh,
just to avoid confusion: I'm not talking about Adobe Photoshop "Elements", the product is Adope Photoshop 6 & 7, both
predessors of Adobe Photoshop CS.
Both Photoshop 6 & 7 were running with Vista SP1, which was the pre-installed OS on my Laptop, and I had installed
both Photoshop versions under Vista with no problem.
Before trying to install Win7 Home Premium, I ran a full data backup, then I tried Windows Easy Transfer to save my
data on external disk.
When I tried to install Win7 using the upgrade option, this failed. So I did a complete fresh new installation of Windows 7
and used Win Easy Transfer to import my data. This, however, did not work properly.
I therefor formatted the disk and did a complete new Win7 install, afterwards I did a data revovery to import my data.
Photoshop 6 runs under Win7, however PS7 does not, giving the message "No personalization data found- reinstrall".
I cannot reinstall, because the PS7 is an upgrade from PS6, and when I try to reinstall, it says that no product is found.
I therefor tried to reinstall PS6 as well, which does not work under Win7.
When I check the event log after failed installation, this is what it says:

I'm disappointed because both programs were working under Vista and I use them a lot...

Just got iPhone 5, get home and find iCloud Outlook Add-in does not install under Windows XP. I am loathe to upgrade to Windows Vista/7/8 just yet. Can I obtain and use an earlier version of iCloud Outlook Add-in? My iPad II synchronizes!

There is no 'earlier' version that supports XP. iCloud launched with Vista/7 support only.

Photoshop Elements does not start under Windows Vista

The Twain-Module of my Canon CanoScan FS4000US Filmscanner works only under Windows Vista (no newer OS!). Fortunately I own an older Notebook with Vista as OS, so I have PSE Version 5.0.2 installed and use it to import my old color negatives via the twain module. Fine! It even works with 42 bit. But suddenly, PSE refuses to start and freezes at the window loading the libraries. At this stage it can only be stopped with the help of the task manager. A little search in the internet informs me that I am not the only user with that specific problem. Any help from Adobe?

After a view days of searching a found a solution: I installed the MS Visual C++ Reditributable für Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 (both 32 bit and 64 bit) and now Photoshop Elements runs without any problems.

Laserjet 4240n driver does not work with windows home premium 64 bit

I recently was given a HP laserjet 4240n by my employer to use in a remote office. I am using a Windows version 7 home premium 64 bit laptop. I have tried the HP install wizard - no support for this printer. I have tried downloading the "correct" driver - but that doesn't work either.
I assume that there is something wrong but I have spent hours and still haven't been able to figutre out what is wrong and how to fix it!

The current iTunes 10.5 upgrade does not install on Windows 7 and indicates a faulty install package (error 2324). Advice or details on the release date for a proper fix?

The current iTunes 10.5 upgrade does not install on Windows 7 and indicates a faulty install package (error 2324). Advice or details on the release date for a proper fix? I'm not able to roll back to the prior version, so I'm stuck in limbo.

There have been a number of problems with installing the latest iTunes on Windows 7 64-bit machines during the last couple of weeks. You might want to do a search on that topic and see if anyone has a solution. There have been various versions of the problem but a lot related to errors in the download package or failure to download.

Acrobat Pro 7.0 does not install on Windows 7, how can I get a version that does?

I recently downloaded and tried installing the non-activation version of Adobe Acrobat Pro 7.0 on my Windows 7 PC. After researching the installation error I read some posts that Acrobat 7.0 does not install on Windows 7. What are my options?

AA 7 will install, but it will not run very cleanly. A lot of things require workarounds. However, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade to AA XI for use on Win7 or Win8. AA 7 is not fully compatible and playing with workarounds is not a great use model. Looks like the price just came down also. You will have to purchase the full version. The upgrade version requires at least AA 9.

Photoshop elements 11 not installing in windows 7 x32

photoshop elements 11 not installing in windows 7 x32
downloads ok then on install it gets to almost the end and a message appears can not continue and it uninstalls itself.

Hello, thank you for your prompt reply. I have downloaded v12 of Photoshop Elements and installed to my Win 7 x64 machine and its working like a charm. Perhaps v11 did not like the spec of my x32 machine.
Thank you again from a satisfied customer.

Can you list your computer hardware specs.? Special attention needs to be paid to the I/O (Input & Output), or the HDD's (Hard Disk Drives), their size, speed, amount of free-space, etc.Are you attempting to do the installation to the default location, or to a custom location? Good luck, and let us know a bit more please.

AC97 onboard sound DOES NOT WORK under Windows 2000

Just an FYI, the AC97 Audio on your MSI mainboard will not work under Windows 2000, for which the AC97 hardware is not certified. If you try to use it, your audio output will be intermittant at best and will crash your audio applications at worst. A maddening and disheartening problem for people like me who didn't realize the problem existed and spent many hours trying to getting it to go away.

Oracle BI Suite 10.1.3.2.0 does not install on Windows 2000

hi all,
I downloaded the two zip files from Oracle site and extracted on d:\biee.
I launched the setup.exe program under d:\orabiee\Windows\Server\Oracle_Business_Intelligence.
I specified the Complete installation and after creating the OracleBI folder, the installation hungs without any message.
I checked out the install.log file and I found this entry:
STACK_TRACE: 7
com.installshield.util.ProcessExecException: CreateProcess: C:\orabiee\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\bin\oc4j.cmd -start error=3
     at com.installshield.util.ProcessExec.executeProcess(ProcessExec.java:180)

     at com.siebel.analytics.install.ExecWizardActionCustom.run(ExecWizardActionCustom.java:79)
     at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
As a matter of fact, the C:\orabiee\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\bin folder does not exist (and, of course neither the oc4j.cmd program).
Is there any path/workaround?
Thanx in advance
Viking

Hi Viking
First things first. Here are some things to consider:
1. If using Windows 2000, you need to be using Windows 2000 Professional with SP4.
2. You should not have any other Oracle software running during this install.
3. You also not have ORACLE_HOME, TNS_ADMIN or any of the other Oracle environment variables set.
4. You need to be a local administrator on the machine.
5. You should not have a firewall enabled.
6. You need to have a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) set for the machine.
7. The FQDN should be set in the HOSTS file which you can find in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc
8. You need to check the certification matrix for 10.1.3.2.0 and make sure it is available for Windows 2000 and that there are no other prerequisites?
Does any of this help?
Regards
Michael

Connection to external display does not work under windows bootcamp, with a thunderbolt to vga adapter.

Hello guys, after searching a lot in the forum for an answer to this, I could not find a solution so this is the reason for this post.
I have a Macbook Pro (early 2011 I think) running MacOSX Lion and I have installed Windows 7 64-bit through bootcamp (version 4.0).
Everything works fine except that I cannot connect my external display through my thunderbolt-vga adapter.
The external monitor shows only the boot screen of windows (the one with the windows logo) and then, when I get into the login page it goes blank.
After reading the forum, I have done several things in order to fix this problem such as:
Restarting the macbook with the thunderbolt device connected to it.
Updated to the latest ATI drivers through bootcamp.
Removed the graphics driver and re-install it again.
I have tried to identify the external monitor through windows 'screen resolution' tool (attached photo).
but still no luck.
Does anyone have any idea on what else I could do in order to fix this? By the way, I find it very frustrating that Apple does not have a stable solution to the problem with devices that are connected to the thunderbolt port.
Thank you in advance

and here is the attached screenshot

ITunes x64 does not install in Windows 7. Shows that there is problem with windows installer package

These images below show the error message I retrieve. I downloaded iTunes 10.5 x64 Edition for windows from Apple Official Website. When I try to install, it shows me these errors. I even tried removing the old version iTunes, and installing this version. But still the same error occurs. Even used windows cleanup utility to remove all itunes and quicktime related files. Still the same problem occurs. I also noticed a difference in this installation compared to the previous ones. In the previous version installation a segment of Apple Terms & Conditions Agreement will appear. But in this installer package, as you can see in the images provided it does not appear. How to solve this? I've been trying to install this for nearly a month.

Nowadays people don't back up to CD/DVD. They get an *external hard drive* and copy over their entire iTunes folder, and whatever else they are backing up.
The advantages are (1) this method does not depend on iTunes's horribly unreliable burning capability (2) you can look at the external and see that the stuff you backed up is really there. (If you want to see an unhappy person, it is when they try to restore from CD/DVD and discover that it did not burn correctly in the first place.) (3) it lets you back up your other valuable files besides your music.

X230T camera does not work under windows 8

Hi!
Is your camera working under Windows 8?
Mine is not. It used to work some time ago, but even then the driver was instable. Now, since a few weeks, it seems not to work at all anymore. Reinstalling the driver does not help.
This may ba a hardware or a software issue, that's why it is important for me to know if yours is working.
Thanks!

As I wrote, I have tried to reinstall the driver without success.
It should be a hardware problem if you are able to run the camera perfectly. Are you using a 64- or 32-bit OS?
Thanks!

Photosmart 3310 does not install on Windows 7

I can't install the HP Photosmart 3310 software and drivers on my Windows 7. The very first time i install the software, it will find the printer, but at the very end of the installation process, it will give an error and then uninstall the driver, but leaves some software on my computer. The next time I run the installer, so that is just tries to add a device, I try to find the printer, it will not find the printer on the network, even if I explicitly type in the printer IP address.
The installation works on Windows XP, i can print from other machines.
I am using the software AIO_CDB_FSW_Full_Win_WW_130_141.exe.
I uninstalled everything and tried again, exactly the same results.
What is going on? Can you help me get the printer working under Windows 7?
