Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop

Hi!
I just upgraded to PS CS% from PS CS3 Extended. Download went well as well as installation.
After, i deactivate CS3 then i uninstall it using Adobe installer.
Each time, i opened CS5, i have the following message:
"One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing.  Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop."
I reinstalled it but i'm still having the same message. I didn't play much with it but it seems to work properly...
What could it be?
Regards!

The problem most likely is uninstalling an older version after installing the new one.
The Uninstaller removes certain support files which it can't tell are the new ones.
The solution in your case is to uninstall CS5 first, then uninstall CS3, run the Adobe CSClean Script, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility, only then install CS5, and the Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility again.
All Adobe upgrades are full installers and do not need to find a previous version of the software installed.  When they don't find a previous version of the software installed, they'll just prompt you for the old serial number.
It's not mandatory to uninstall older versions, but if you don't want to keep the older versions, uninstall them first, before installing a newer version.  I have all versions of Photoshop from 7.0.1 through 11.0.2 ("CS4") happily coexisting on my machine.  I can even run two versions of Photoshop simultaneously, just by launching the older version first and assigning separate scratch disk volumes to each.

    Hello Jody
    Try removing iTunes and its related software in the order that the first article states. Then once that is done then download iTunes or reinstall from the installer that you have already downloaded.

  • Run PS Installer and Re-Install PS...

    Thank you for your help in advance.  I recently installed Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 and followed the prompts from the Creative Cloud Installer.  After being prompted that installation was successful, I proceeded to open Photoshop CC only to get the prompt as follows: "One or more files in the Adobe Application Support folder, necessary for running Photoshop, are missing.  Please run the Photoshop installer and re-install Photoshop."  Needless to say, I'm doing something wrong.  Would you please share with me where the PS installer is?  I cannot find it for the life of me... in any of the folders.  Do i "Uninstall" PS and then re-install?
    Thank you!

    This thread was incorrectly posted in the Adobe Captivate forums. It has since been moved to the Photoshop forums.

  • I plug in my iPhone and this message showed. "This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes." I did this but still not working. Please advise

    I have a problem with connecting my iPhone to iTunes. I uninstalled one of the computer program and restart my laptop. After restart my laptop and a message said that iTunes might not working because one of the component is missing and request to reinstall the iTunes. Hence I remove iTunes from my laptop and I reinstall iTunes to my laptop but still not working.
    Before this the iTunes will automatically launch when I plug in my iPhone. But after I reinstall iTunes, it's not working. When I try to plug in my iPhone after iTunes launched and message "This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes." popped out. I did this twice but it's not working as well.
    Please advise what should I do to fix this.

    First make sue you are installing the 64 bit version of iTunes.
    Second make sure it is iTunes 10.7 or later.
    I would download a fresh copy of the 64 bit version of iTunes 11. After installation reboot your computer.
    Before connecting your phone reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes and then reinstall it again

    I tried yesterday to install iTunes on a XP Services Pack 3 Pc, It said that it couldn't install it. So after much reading last night, i downloaded Revo Uninstaller Pro, and uninstalled all apple software, included Bonjour, Quicktime and Apple Support along with iTunes. I then, used Ccleaner to double check that nothing apple related was left in the registry.
    After doing all the above, i rebooted the PC, and downloaded a fresh copy of iTunes from the website, and installed it. I installed the first time of asking. I then pulged in my Son's new iPod, and it detected it as a scanner/Camera, and behind that was a message that said the following:" This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes then install iTunes again"
    I've tried doing this, and it keeps coming up with the same message
    Can anyone help please

    In Windows 7, go to Control Panel (usually in the Start menu) and look for Add and Remove Programs. It will load a long list of programs. Find iTunes on that list and uninstall it. Then try using the 64-bit installer.

    I am trying to reinstall Dreamweaver CS3 from the CD after having computer issues.  Now getting error "You can only install one Adobe product at a time.  Please complete the other installation before attempting to install ......."  There is no other Adobe product installing.  I have used the Adobe Cleaner Tool many times and uninstalled other Adobe Products but neither has worked.  I have uninstalled/reinstalled this CD version of Dreamweaver several times when changing computers and after having computer issues. A google search of the problem suggested it may be an error related to the number of times I can reinstall this product due to licensing issues.  Please help.

    Absolutely not. You are misinterpreting things. The activation check never happens when just running the installer, only much later. It means what it says - there is another "install" pending/ active on your system, meaning somewhere there is an (invisible) process still blocking things. Either way, since you haven't provided any real technical info, we can't advise specifically. if you are on Windows, you may want to check your task manager and terminate any setup.exe and msiexec.exe processes plus potentially may need to manually fix/ delete some registry keys. For anything beyond that you will have to be much more specific.

  • This iphone can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the itunes installer to remove itunes, then install the 64bit version of itunes

    This iphone can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the itunes installer to remove itunes, then install the 64bit version of itunes
    I keep getting the above error everytime I plug in my iphone.
    I am not daft, I do have the 64bit version of iTunes installed already. When I installed itunes 10.5 and more recently 10.5.1 I got an error message that rolls back a section of the installation (The updater I think) before finishing off installing iTunes.
    After the installation iTunes will work normally apart from when I try to connect a device. At which point I get the title error message and I can not sync my phone.
    It's probably down to Itunes not installing properly however no matter what I try I can not sort the problem out. I've tried uninstalling all apple programmes followed by a registry clean, then reinstall. I've tried the same again but in a specific order. I've tried repairing iTunes, repairing the updater etc etc. Nothing seems to work. I'm out of ideas.
    Has anybody had this problem? Please can somebody tell me how to fix it!
    Getting an iPad this Christmas and if I can't sync that up to my PC I may just have to go over to ANDROID!!!

    Is there a way to install this on its own?
    Yeah, let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunes64Setup.exe installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunes64Setup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunes64Setup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunes64Setup".
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, does an iTunes install go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • How come iTunes keeps saying:"this iPod can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes?"  Wth...i am using the 64version.

    Hi. How come iTunes keeps saying:"this iPod can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes?"  Wth...i am using the 64 bit version of itunes. Why does it keep saying that? Will someone Help me please!? This is is getting frustrating. I already had done a full removal of everything! I even removed and deleted my library...then had to put all 500 songs back on one by one. So, i don't have to remove everything again, just to get my ipod to work on here. You, know before the itunes update, my ipod and itunes were working just fine.

    wow, that was a quick reply. lol. but i have removed everything. I wasn't even able to get iTunes on my computer for a little while. i kept getting errors on that. Now it's saying that the required software isn't installed. Hmm, could it be referring to Apple Mobile Device Support? That is supposed to be installed with when iTunes gets installed right? I only ask, because that  didn't get installed with the itunes setup.

    Hello Negaz
    When you uninstalled iTunes, did you uninstall it by using the article below or just uninstalled iTunes? The best practice is to remove not only iTunes, but also other associating software in the order that the first article give. If that does not work, then check out the second article for more troubleshooting options for connecting your iPhone to your computer.
