Photoshop installed but not recongnized by Computer, updates fail

Hello,
I had installed CS6 Photoshop on my Windows 7 PC. Something happened where I see all the files and reference to Photoshop on the hard drive in the program files but I do not see an app icon to open the program. I also do not see the program listed in Control Panel so I can unistall it.
The Adobe App Manager seems to also recongnize it as installed. It offers me updates. When I update I get the following error message "U44M1P7 Error log file location C:\program files (x86)\ Common files\ Adobe installers
What do I need to do to fix this? If the app manager says it is installed but my computer will not recognize it to uninstall it what is my recourse?
Thanks.
Shannon

Hi Shannon,
You might try downloading and installing the Photoshop CS6 trial.

Installed but not found on computer

I've successfully installed the latest 10.1 for my 64-bit laptop with Windows 7. A check by Adobe confirms that it was properly installed, and that I have the correct version for my computer.
AND YET, there is no icon for it anywhere, it doesn't come up on my list of Programs, when I enter "Adobe Flash Player" in the search bar it shows no such program, and when I try to play a FLV file, it won't give me Flash Player as an option. So..... I have it on my computer, but I apparently am not allowed to see it or access it?
I've uninstalled and re-installed several times, and cannot for the life of me figure out what the problem is. Any help for this maddening situation?

Hi,
Yes, I read his comments and I made sure Shockwave Flash Object was enabled in IE as he suggested. I am trying to make a flip book. One of the posts here in the forum said to make a SWF file, which I did. But now I can't figure out how to do anything with it. I thought Flash Reader was the right program to look at it, but maybe I'm wrong? Maybe I need Flash itself? The flip book thing has me pretty frustrated and confused. All the sites and software I've tried are poor quality. I was hoping I could figure out how to do it through Adobe to get better quality.

Re: Installed but not found on computer
Hi, Flash Player is a browser plugin, not a stand alone Player. You should have Shockwave Flash Object in add ons in IE and make sure it is enabled.
Your Flash files are in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
You may want the Adobe Media Player:http://www.adobe.com/products/mediaplayer/
Hope that helps,

Currently using Photoshop CS5, but with a replacement computer and upgrade to Yosemite, keep being told I need to install the legacy Java 6. Currently, Photoshop won't even open. I absolutely do not want to subscribe, don't want to mess with the cloud, just want to buy an upgrade to something that will run for a while longer. I don't care about Lightroom, Bridge, Illustrator, etc.; most of those I've deleted over the years. But I do use Photoshop - or would if it would still run. What options do I have?

This is the java you need for photoshop cs5 to work on mac os x 10.10 Yosemite
https://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572?locale=en_US
It's also possible you may have to reinstall photoshop cs5 even after installing the above java, because sometimes the upgrade to mac os x 10.10 messes up the photoshop cs5 installation.
You can download photoshop cs5 from here if you don't already have the install media.

I updated photoshop cc but I cannot see the updates when I launch photoshop? I have restarted the computer and that still doesn't help.

Installing the "Update" installs a totally new version. The old version of Photoshop CC is still installed. It is likely you are running the old version.

I have Creative Cloud installed and Photoshop installed, but I can not open the program itself. No idea why, everything is up to date and i was using it just fine yesterday.

Try resetting Photoshop Preferences. Use your Photoshop start icon to launch Photoshop and immediately press and hole Shift+Ctrl|CMD+Alt|Option keys Photoshop should Prompt you with Do you want your Preferences deleted. Reply yes. Photoshop should then delete your user ID preferences and then create a default set of preferences for your ID and start successfully.

Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not

Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not
Has anyone seen this. It seems to happen with ARD 3, have not seen this in ARD 2.
I go to the Install Packages on Target Computers, put in: 10.4.7 Combo (for the correct CPU, PPC or Intel), security updates, QT 7.1.2, etc.
Push it to Macs I can connect to, observe and control.
The progress bar copies the files (in some instances it does not) and then it just hangs there, bar does not move, Installs never finish, not good, very odd.

Is it the same clients that have the problem every time? Are those clients doing anything cpu intensive? Have you tried rebooting the affected clients?
Maybe try a smaller package on those clients.

Blackberry Desktop Software installed, but not on start menu or icons on desktop

Blackberry Desktop Software installed, but not on start menu or icons on desktop
I got a new laptop Windows 7. I installed Blackberry Desktop apparently successfully. However, doesn't appear on start menu nor desktop.

Hey tgcraighead,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
After the installation did you restart the computer? If you go into Control Panel>Programs and Features do you see BlackBerry Desktop Software listed in the applications?
Did you have a previous version of BlackBerry Desktop Software installed?
I look forward to your reply.
Cheers.

I was running Foxfire 3.6.9 and wanted to use FTP Program add-on and it did not appear to load but appeared but then would be installed but not run or appear under tools. So I deleted Foxfire 3.6.9 and down loaded to 3.5.9 so it could get FTP and it is doing the same could not install. Even after I registered my copy. The last time I used this program it showed up under tools and worked great. any suggestions on whats going on and how I can get around this?.by ralphd3g

Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

Drive appears in device manager but not in My Computer

I just wanted to post a solution that took me about 2 hrs to solve. Issue was, my firewire WD TB drive would be seen, by XP (SP3) on boot camp, in xp's device manager but not in My Computer. My goal was to format this as an NTFS drive for my boot camp files. I was unable to format this in Leopard as ntfs either. I tried installing HD drivers and formatting from leopard as FAT32 (just so Windows would see it) but all failed.
The solution I used was as below. (this would not work if you want to retain data on the drive, I didn't care as I was setting up an old drive and reformatting from scratch). Solution:
- Download free 10-day trial of Paragon's NFTS for Mac.
- Install on Leopard (note app seems sparse after download as if it didn't work) but... then...
- Open Disk Utility, you'll notice more options under Erase>Format Options drop down. Paragon acts like a plugin it seems and gives Disk Utility NTFS format options. Don't erase yet...
- Go to Partition tab, Select 1 partition and the options and select Master Boot Record and partition. (Win XP didn't see my 2nd partition when I did this so maybe it can only see the one). Anyhow create 1 big MBR partition.
- Then, go back to erase if you want and zero out.
Drive should then appear when you restart in XP.
I reformatted here from xp too just to be sure that the drive would be fully xp compatible though not sure this would be necessary.
BTW - I also had a 120GB usb drive with the same issue. For some reason with this one I was able to simply erase as FAT32 from leopard without the Paragon plugin and it showed up in XP. Go figure.

Hi Simnap,
Unfortunately Windows XP can only read hard drives that are 2 TB's or less due to barriers set in place by the age of the operating system and the hardware of that time period, even if its still used now. So you may have to partition the drive into (2) 2 TB's or (4) 1 TB's in order for XP to see it. Mac OS X supports 4 TB and above, just not XP.
Kind Regards,
Sidney S. Ramirez

ADE installed but not recognized

I am using Windows 10, a Nook, My Media Mall. ADE is installed, my computer authorized and I am activated. When I download an E book, it appears to be downloaded, but when I try "open with" the only option showing is Adobe Reader. Then, I look for other programs but ADE is not listed as an option. Is there something I have not done?

Windows 7 and IE 11 ... I also use Firefox, for business only.

Lens recognised in Photoshop CS5 but not in Lightroom 3

Automatic lens correction recognises my camera make and lens ( Sony - sigma 18 -250) in Photoshop CS5 but not in Lightroom 3. In fact the lens is not even listed in Lightroom.
Is there a way to update Lightroom with the Photoshop data?

I don't think Photoshop's plugin filters by file type - it just throw all the profiles at you, but uses exif lens data to pre-select the bes matching.
I think it makes sense, since after opening a file, be it raw or jpeg, in Photoshop, the program cannot be sure about the provenience of data. So it relies on user to make the right choice.

Anyone have an issue where a font shows in the font list in Photoshop/Illustrator but not in Flash?

Anyone have an issue where a font shows in the font list in Photoshop/Illustrator but not in Flash?
I'm not 100% sure but i may have had flash open when installing, i then uninstalled the font and then reinstalled the font. I even tried going from an OTF font to a TTF font.
No luck.
Do I need to do some sort of font cache clearing?
-Line
I'm using Adobe CS6 Flash, Photoshop and Illustrator on MAC OSX

Yes. It's rare, but some fonts do not play well with Flash. Flash seems to have a more strict method of evaluating a font that can be imported. This is, in my opinion, probably because Flash needs to create a faux version of a font when it is imported. There may be some information that is either missing or not acceptable to Flash in a particular font and so Flash won't allow it to be used - even if you're not going to import that font.
