  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 will not install on my Mac.

    Adobe Photoshop CS6 will not install on my Mac. Adobe Application Manager is seeing the Beta version of Photoshop CS6 on my machine.
    I have unistalled/deleted any previous versions of the software, and used the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner tool to flush my machines. Sadly,
    I am still getting the following error:
    Photoshop CS6 Installation Failed
    A beta version of this product exists on the computer. Please quit and uninstall that version before continuing.

    It's strange that you ran the cleaner tool and still didn't worked
    you can try to login to Root user account and then run the cleaner tool , and then check.

  • Adobe CS4 will not install on new macbook pro [was: pro]

    Adobe CS4 will not install on new macbook pro. It is coming from my other macbook.

    Install normally means running setup from the orginal discs or the downloadable trial version. If you are copying from a backup or another computer, that won't work.
    Best advice is to download the CS4 trial, and have your serial number ready in order to convert the trial into a licensed version.
    Get the trial here. Follow the instructions carefully or the download link won't work.

  • Itunes 11.1 will not install on my mac even after it restrts

    I am having trouble ungrading itunes. I open itunes and it give me the option to upgrade and i do and follow through but it will not install even after restarting and everything.

    Never accept or download a software up date that is not from an authorized Apple site. You don't know if any one tampered with the software if you d/l from another source such as a dropbox account.

  • Photoshop CS6 will not install from Adobe Apps manager

    I have the cloud subscription and I tried downloading PS, it said it could not so so because i had the beta installed. So I got rid of the beta and tried again....still said no.  So I emptied my trash and restarted, and it still will not download PS.  I got all my other software ok, but cant get PS for some reason. Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks

    I talked with support, go download the adobe cleaner and it will allow you to see what files from PS CS6 are still on your system and get them off.  I am trying now, will let u know if it works.
    download it here   http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

  • Photoshop CS4 will not install on my new iMac 3.4 i7 OS 10.8.2  WHY!!

    Photoshop CS4 will n ot install on my new iMac 3.4 i7 OS 10.8.2  WHY!!!

    Do you receive any specific error messages when you try to install?  You can find information on how to locate and interpret your installation log files at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-installation-install-logs-cs3.html.

  • Photoshop CS6 will not install: "The download appears corrupt... (-60)."

    "...Press Cancel, wait a few minutes and try again. (-60)"
    I've tried multiple times, but continue to get the same error.  I've been able to download and install Dreamweaver, InDesign, and Premiere Pro with any problems.

    I am experiencing the same problems on Mac OSX 10.7.3. I did have the CS6 Photoshop Beta installed prior to subscribing to the Creative Cloud, but uninstalled it per request of the Adobe Application Manager (Creative Cloud Client?). First few attempts of installing PS CS6, ended with "The download appears corrupt... (-60)". All of the other software programs that I needed installed fine.  Numerous restarts did nothing to help. I then ran the CS Cleaner Tool and removed all of CS6 and also CS5 from the computer, and rebooted. The next attempt resulted in an error code -4. After another reboot, I am back at "The download appears corrupt... (-60)". Restarting the computer does nothing to help.
    Below is the log output (Removed what looked like session keys/serial numbers and replaced them with x's. I think they are safe to post, but wanted to be on the safe side.):

  • Photoshop cs4 will not install

    i have recently downloaded the trail version of cs4 to see if i like it but when i try to install it goes to the checking system profile install thing but stops once it gets about 3/4 of the way done with it. also when it stops i get an install message about command line parameters about different modes. please can anyone help!!

    Vista or XP?
    check services and turn windows installer to auto
    Turn off anti-virus
    Turn off windows defender
    Turn off any running programs you don't need in msconfig.
    Put the folder on windows desktop and run setup program as administrator.
    Make sure you install at the default location as the software seems to be happy there.
    Depending on how far you got you may have to run the CS4 cleaner and windows uninstaller. There is a section in the help area on what to download and how to do it.
    There is a "how to set up" in the help area too.

  • MacBook Pro 15" (Late 2013) will not install Windows 8.1 Pro under Boot Camp?

    Have spent many hours trying to sort this out. I was told this morning in the end by a 'Senior Advisor' @ Apple that Boot Camp does not support Windows 8.1 Pro so effectively it seems like my only option for a new machine purchased earlier in the week is to return for a refund.
    This despite the Apple Spec saying "
    Windows 8: Windows 8 or 8.1, Windows 8 or 8.1 Pro (Boot Camp 5 only)"
    The subject has been aired in thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5474320?start=585&tstart=0 but it has been suggested I post a fresh thread.
    I have purchased a new 8.1 Pro license, so this is not an upgrade. I have followed the Boot Camp instructions, including getting the update for this model spcifically, but the nearest I got to a successful install returns soemthing of the like 'Unable to update boot settings' or the like and installation cancels. My machine is a mess I guess now, but in a final effort - does anyone have the step by step 'idiots guide' to working through the setup successfully? I don't want to get involved in massses of messing around with files as this should clearly not be necessary for achieving an advertised solution on a new machine bought within the last week should it?
    Appreciate any help - I have up to seven more days left in my option to return for a full refund..... and maybe buy a Dell instead?
    PS : We have many Apple products, Air, ipads and iphones so would dearly like to sort this out if possible.
    Thanks for any help...

    8/8.1 will install fine but there's some stuff you need to do before starting to ensure no issues
    purchase a retail 8/8.1 license
    use only a USB2 flash drive
    get a clean 8 or 8.1 ISO
    newer machines are more selective with the ISO for some reason (ISOs that worked to install Windows on many different older Macs would not work)
    if you've made lots of changes, hacks and adjustments trying to get this work on your own, you should clean install OSX first, do not restore from time machine and start at step 3 to get Windows installed, you can go back later and copy files back to OSX
    if you want to try without clean installing OSX, here goes
    open boot camp assistant (bca) and choose option 3 ONLY if it reads 'remove/delete' Windows
    open disk utility (du) and confirm that your HD now only has 1 single partition ('macintosh HD' unless you've renamed it)
    restart machine and do a PRAM reset
    open du and repair permissions TWICE
    open bca and choose all 3 options (create, download, install)
    from here, the process follows the standard boot camp instructions (http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1636/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.8.pdf) but pay attention to step 3 where you do have to manually reformat the boot camp partition
    clean ISOs

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 Will Not Install PLEASE HELP TRIED EVERYTHING

    I downloaded from Adobe the Photoshop CS3 Extended Trial directly from Adobe. (BTW I am on Vista 32)
    The first time I tried installing, ADBEPHSPCS3_WWE.exe successfully unpacked, I successfully transitioned to the Adobe Photoshop CS3 installation, and it appeared to install. After 30 minutes or so, the installer finished and simply said that shared components had installed but the Photoshop CS3 Component install failed.
    I always got in the log Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.MFCLOC,version="8.0.50727.163",type="win32",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18 e3b",processorArchitecture="x86"'. Please refer to Help and Support for more information
    This, I know, is everyones typical problem.
    I turned off firewall and antivirus.
    I uninstalled ALL Adobe and Macromedia programs, including Flash and Acrobat.
    I used Windows Install Cleanup Utility to remove them.
    I downloaded the CS3 Clear from Adobe and cleared at levels 1, 2, and 3.
    I created the Administrator account on my computer and tried everything on the Administrator account.
    I tried installing Photoshop CS3 with compatibility mode for XP SP2.
    I tried:
    1. Open an Administrator command prompt by right clicking on Start -> All
    Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt and selecting "Run as
    Administrator" and clicking "Allow" for the elevation prompt
    2. In the command prompt, type the command below
    fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\
    3. Reboot the machine
    I tried:
    Get command prompt up. It has to be run with admin rights so save yourself some time and run it this way.........Start/programs/accessories/.....right click command prompt and click run as administrator.
    Then paste these commands in 1 after the other
    regsvr32 vbscript.dll (THEN PRESS ENTER)
    and
    regsvr32 jscript.dll (AGAIN PRESS ENTER)
    I even tried installing in Safe Mode but the CS3 setup would not initialize.
    I do not know what else to do. I have CS2 which I will use, but I was really hoping to move to CS3 which is supposed to be better and faster. Does anyone know anything else to do? I am not a computer noob but I am not about to reinstall Vista. If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.

    I was in the same predicament and after spend many hours over several days trying a multitude of things I finally found an easy fix (below):
    ========================================
    Assuming you have Internet Explorer 7 go to:
    Tools/Internet option/Advanced
    Click the Reset dialog box. This will bring IE7 back to its default settings. You should reboot your computer. After logging back into Windows load IE and let it take you though its initial setup. When you are done close IE and install Photoshop.. This worked for me,,, hopefully it will work for you!

  • Photoshop CS5 will not install.

    I have the disk and all the other programs are up and running fine but Photoshop does not properly install.
    It goes through the installation process but when its done installing there is only a file labeled "Photoshop cs5".

    Exactly what type of "file"?  Are you sure it's not a folder containing the installation?  If not, what happens when you double click on it. 
    How much available hard disk space do you have left and what is the total capacity of your boot drive?  How much RAM.

  • Photoshop CS3 will not install at all

    I have been using CS for years with no problems. I just UNinstalled CS in order to install CS3, full version not an upgrade, and after the install screen appears and I click install the "initiallizing CS3" appears and then Nothing Happens, absolutely nothing happens. Nothing loads, no prompts appear, Nothing. What did'nt happen? I am running XP 2 on Athlon dual core 5200+ 2Gig ram 250 gig disk. All other Adobe programs are still OK. Any help?

    <begin soapbox mode>
    Microsoft made a HORRIBLE design decision, way back with the very first version of Windoze, when they created a Registry file that was open to every program installed, or UNinstalled, on the computer
    Over time, it is very common for the Registry to become so corrupted with bad or incomplete installs or UNinstalls, that no amount of tweaking will fix the problem
    The only solution, as RB found, is to wipe the hard drive and install everything fresh
    That HORRIBLE (this is, of course, only my opinion) design desision has cause more problems than anything else

  • Photoshop CS6 will not install- associations issue

    Every time I click the install button in the cs6 set up I get this error:
    "this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. 
    Please install a program, or if one exists, create an association in the default
    programs control panel"
    Thank you in advance

    It appears that the file associations for your .exe files seem to be corrupted.
    I suggest that you follow the below support doc from microsoft that will fix the file associations.
