Premiere Pro trial hangs at "Extracting...this may take a while"

I have tried downloading Premiere Pro several times and each time it downloads and it starts to extract.  It just sits at the "Extracting...this may take a while screen".  I left it up all night and it was still that way the next morning.  I looked in take manager and It does NOT say "not responding"  so I think the download assistant program is OK.  I did go ahead and uninstall it and reinstalled it as well.  I am running Win7 64bit.

This is likely happening due to choosing a location to download the install files to that the Adobe Download Assistant does not have sufficient permissions to write too.  I would recommend completing solution 1 in Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assistant.html#main_Solutio n_1 to reset the download experience.  When reinitiating the download please choose the default location of your User folder to download the install files too.
Alternately you can follow the steps listed in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369 to initiate a direct download.

  • Photoshop Elements 10 downloaded but hanging on 'extracting this may take a while' - what do I do?

    Its been like this for ages, and as I'm new to Mac, I'm not sure where to begin looking for the download location.....
    Appreciate any help!!
    Thanks.

    From your description it sounds like you have chosen a location to download, i.e. the Applications folder, which the Adobe Download Assistant does not have permission to download too.  I would recommend canceling the download and trying again.  This time please choose the default location of the User folder to download the install files too.

  • "Extracting this may take a while" for 4 hours

    I downloaded the trial and had to download the adobe download assistant and it started downloading my file after it finished.  After it finished downloading it said Extracting... This may take a while.  Its been saying that for 4 hours now and it only took 30min to download.  Is this normal and if not what can i do to fix it?

    Check for the Internet connection. If its good, then try the same with a different broswer. Below link would help in this scenario,

  • Extracting-this may take forever.

    "Extracting—this may take a while."
    Is it supposed to take all afternoon to extract a trial of Design & Web? What should I do? (Macbook OS 10.6.8)

    No, it isn't. Anything longer than half an hour is a busted attempt. Try again picking otehr download and extraction locations.

  • Downloading TRIAL CS6... "Extracting...this may take a while.." Is taking too long.

    I've used the Adobe Assistant to download the trial version of CS6, Design and Web Premium on my MAC. It has gotten all the way to the point where it says "Extracting...this may take a while...." But it's been almost 24 hours at this point. What should I do? Do I start over? Or is there something I can do to speed up this process. This is ridiculous at this point. Never had  problem like this before...

    Yes, start over. Use anotehr browser to initiate the download or use this method:
    Direct Download Links for Adobe Software
    Then extract the files manualyl using winZip or similar tools.

  • Rikaichan (add-on) doesn't work at my office. It gives this error "Javascript application: the index for one or more dictionaries needs to be created. This may take a while on slower computers". And then the PC freezes. What should I do?

    I'm using Firefox 3.6.17, and have installed Rikaichan 2.02. Once I've installed the Japanese-English dictionary, I then click on Rikaichan to get it started, and it always gives a "Javascript Application" error:
    '''"The index for one or more dictionaries needs to be created. This may take a while on slower computers"'''
    Rikaichan always works fine on my laptop, but I just can't seem to install it properly at work. Is there some sort of office security screwing it up?

    venicespent,
    Boot into your Mavericks Recovery partition by hold down the command and R keys whilst booting. You'll see a screen that looks like this:
    Click on the Disk Utility item to open Disk Utility. You should see your boot drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've changed it) in the column on the left of the screen. Select your boot partition and click on the "Verify" button. Let your Mac do it's thing - if you get green text telling you that everything seems to be OK, then your disk should not be damaged. If, however, you get red text telling you that the disk needs to be repaired, click on the "Repair" button. If the disk can be repaired, you should be good to go. If the disk cannot be repaired then the drive is damaged.
    But before you do anything, make certain that you have backups!!!

  • "Letterboxing...This may take a while" - 17hrs and COUNTING???!! Advice

    I'm doing a football scouting film and I imported footage from a Canon XL1 and a small Sony HandyCam.
    There are appx 70+ clips in the project.
    When I clicked on the "EDIT" switch to start editing, I got the "LETTERBOXING. PLEASE WAIT...THIS MAY TAKE A WHILE" message...that was 17hrs ago!
    My hard drive is almost FULL and I'm guessing thats why its taking so long. I keep deleting things to make room for this to finish.
    1. Why does it even have to letterbox at all?
    2. How can I speed up this process?
    3. Should I FORCE QUIT and try to start over? (I don't wanna do that)
    ANY advice would be much appreciated
    thnx

    I would suggest force quitting, opening a new file and on the opening window, change the bar at the bottom to say DV widescreen. Thay way it doesn't have to Letterbox

  • Pillarboxing. Please wait. This may take a while.

    How long is a while? I imported about a thirty min. 4x3 DV (plan to include other material made in widescreen). I'm not sure because iMovie's help don't work while doing this "pillarboxing" but I imagine it has to do with stretching the 4x3 format video into widescreen (?), however, it's taking forever! Is this normal?
    No wait, it appears to be reducing the size of the clips; NOT maintaining how I imported, nor what I selected in setup. What? It looked good in import mode, and now iMovie is making sure it's 4x3 and NOT widescreen?
    I don't remember iMovie doing this before.
    Time will tell... a lot of time, lots and lots of time will tell.
    Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
    G5 dual 1.8   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Okay. Now that pillarboxing is complete, I guess I'll delete this project and start again, and uncheck "Automatic DV Pillarboxing & Letterboxing" in prefs.
    Bummer.
    Also, since I'm here: Why can't iMovie have more than just ONE VIDEO TRACK?? Is it impossible? Cheap PC movie editing programs do. Just wondering with all the improvements and updates and upgrades why one of the most important and desired feature or function is ignored?
    It'd be soooo much better and worth it.
    Com' on Apple, give us a video editing breakbreak! Not everyone wants to jump into FCE just for another track.... okay? Pretty please.

  • Premiere Pro Trial has expired

    Why do I get the message "Premiere Pro Trial has expired" when I try to open my Creative Cloud software? Paying for software and not beeing able to work on it is a very bad deal.

    Please click the License This Software button and that should fix the issue. You may need to sign in again with your Adobe ID.

  • Premiere Pro CC hangs on splash screen  "loading ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle"

    Premiere Pro CC hangs on splash screen  "loading ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle"
    This happened before when I had CS6. I'm now using CC and haven't had problems until now. I again get the hang up while loading. Previously I trashed the loading ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle file and this solved the problem.
    I tried to contact support. I thought my subscription to CC included support, apparently not.
    Anyone else have this Problem?
    Brian

    Thanks for the response Kevin.
    I tried repairing permissions.
    I recently installed OSX 10.8.4 but I've been succesfully using PP since then. PP is up to date v7.0.1
    I have read the other forum posts on this.
    Again, this problem cropped up using PP CS6, but I was able fix it using this procedure:
    1. Go to Applications
    2. Go to Adobe Premiere CS6
    3. Right click on the application and click on “Show Package Contents”
    4. Go to Contents –> Plug-ins –> Common
    5. Move the following files to the desktop: ExporterQuicktimeHost.bundle and ImporterQuicktimeHost.bundle
    6. Restart Adobe Premiere CS6 and it will successfully open up
    This no longer fixes it.
    I desperately need to get back to work.
    Even though I feel Adobe support should be included in a CC subscription, I'm considering purchasing Adobe Bronze support with a max wait time of 4 hours and only alloted phone calls for  $175
    thanks anyway
