Photoshop cs5.1 will not initialize instillation...

Everytime i try and install photoshop on my macbook pro, it says setup failed to initialize. any ideas?

Per the document which Mylenium posted, in the beginning of this thread, you will need to review the PDApp.log file. You can find more details under Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html. I would recommend reviewing Analyze the Creative Suite 5 or CS5.5 PDapp log section.
Short of posting the PDApp.log into the forums, which is very confusing to read as it can be quite a lot of text, it would be best for these issues to review the log yourself or work with our support team. For the best assistance, I recommend our chat support at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6. Our chat representatives can provide a personalized experience to resolve the issue you have described.

Photoshop elements 13 will not initialize after the program has been opened

Photoshop Elements 13 will not initialize after the program has been opened once. If I remove Elements processes from task manager, Organizer will open I am using Windows 7 and Elements 12 is also installed on the same computer.

the password and licensing agreement are needed for installation, not to run.

Photoshop CS5.1 will not even open. Says it has encountered a problem and has to close.

I have just today downloaded a free trial of Adobe CS5.1, but when I try to open it, it brings up the loading screen, and then when it says "Starting-up plug-ins, Scripting Support" an error message comes up saying "Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 has encountered a problem and needs to close.
This also happens when I try to use Photoshop Elements 8. It will not let me on to the Organiser.
As well as this, I had a problem with bridge. Whenever I tried to download images onto my computer, it said "Adobe photo downloaded has encountered a fatal error. Error code: c0000005 (I cannot remember what the address was though). I uninstalled bridge and then tried to download CS5.1 so I could get bridge again, but it has only made things worse!
What should I do?
Thanks
Oscar

Ok I did that and it said
"Faulting application photoshop.exe, version 12.1.0.0, faulting module scriptingsupport.8li, version 10.0.0.0, fault address 0x000d1a2e."
This would make sense as when I try to start photosohop CS5.1 and the strtup screen appears, when it says "Starting-up plugins, Scripting Support" that it was the message "Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 has encountered a problem and has to close" comes up.

Photoshop CS5.1 will not save prefs

Once quit, prefs are standard again. Even on admin account. PS is the only application of mastercollection with this issue. Reinstallation does not help. What is the solution?
There is no plist file named com.adobe.Photoshop.12.1 in the prefs from system library (Mac OS X.7). Does that make sense?

Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 Settings folder does not update when I change the prefs in Photoshop. And inside this folder: Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 Prefs.psp file (and all other files in this folder) do not update. Date of installation stays. So actions, swatches, workspaces and so on, also will not remember changes.
My problems are created when I upgraded from CS3 to CS5.5. My software and OS (Mac OS X 10.7.5) is up to date. My hardware is ok.
I found an old discussion thread from others with the same problem at the time they upgraded from CS3 to CS5. Solution: change permissions in prefs folder to "everyone" in Read and Write. This is not working for me on my own account, but it works well on my admin account. Before I had the same problems there.
I discovered permissions for system (read and write) for Adobe PS CS5.1 Settings folder, but there are no system permissions for this folder on my own account. Missing permissions?

Photoshop CS5 trial will not open - "illegal seek" message

I have Mac OS X 10.7.3 installed. The Adobe Download Assistant is stuck in extracting mode, which I can't seem to get rid of even after deleting the Adobe Download Assistant dmg and reinstalling it. Since I was not able to open the Photoshop CS5 dmg (I received the illegal seek message), I deleted it. I have tried redownloading the Adobe Download Assistant, but I can't seem to get it out of its extracting state. What do I do? I have tried 2 different internet connections also... since I saw that was recommended on someone else's post that had the same issue.
Thanks

Hi please can you help me. I have photoshop CS5 extended, I bought a new camera Nikon D610 I want to edit my photos adobe camera raw , but when I try to open photoshop CS5 it will not open. Please can you tell me how to download and install the camera raw

HI bought a new camera Nikon D610 , I am using adobe photoshop CS5 extended, I want to edit my photos in camera raw but it is not possible to do so . I need to download camera raw plugin for CS5 can some tell me how to do so or if there is a link for the camera plugin.
Many thanks Pitt.

For that Nikon model you need ACR 8.3 that means CS6 or CC. Or you can download the DNG converter convert your Nikon RAW files to Adobe RAW files. And then process the Adobe RAW files with CS5 ACR version 6.7

Photoshop CS6 installer will not initialize - no log files generated

Hi,
I am trying to reinstall Photoshop CS6 on a new computer I purchased. When I run the installer, the progress bar gets to the end and sits there for several minutes. Then the Adobe Installer windows just closes and no other installation windows open up. I have checked the /Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers directory for a log file to see what is happening. But no log file is being generated.
Prior to installation, I ran the Adobe uninstaller as well as ZapIt to remove any old or corrupted CS 6 files.
I am running a 2014 macbook pro, Maverick OS 10.9.5. The machine has plenty of disk space and ram.
I am at my wit's end. Can anybody give me any guidance?

Photonut65 if the installer is failing to initialize then you will want to review the PDApp.log located in your temp directory. You can find more details at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

We have reinstalled the CS5 suite twice now with now changes. We have also verified that the CS5 suite is up to date with all the latest updates and patches needed. All other parts of the CS5 suite work on the computer.
Please let us know what other information you may need to help resolve this problem we are faced with.

I installed Elements 12 because my version of Photoshop (CS5.1) is not compatible with Yosemite. Now the Adobe Application Manager will not search for updates for any of the programs in CS5.5 that I have. How do I fix this?

I own the businesses, so there are no restrictions. Even my personal page has the same problem. I've been working on FB for years with no access problems. Ironically, the problem started the day the FB IPO went public. At first, the "freeze" happened when I tried to view a photo. Now it happens virtually every time I try to do anything: view a friend's page, try to use "chat."
I'm at a loss. I would view it as a blessing, except that too many of my "friends" and family only use FB to communicate. I'm afraid that's how the world is today, and we can't turn back the clock.

Member on LinkedIn and there is a group Adobe Software Users- some Adobe employees are there and responded to my question. This is where I found my answer but if you also try another forum such as one for Ae or which ever one you are having problems with I feel you will get ans answer. This forum is very old and this application is no longer in Adobe's radar as they have pretty much canned this application.
