Problem in installing trial s/w

when i try to install the trial s/w for the 1st time, the
foll. error msg appears.
Error 1603 - Fatal error during installation. Consult windows
installer help (Msi.chm) or MSDN for more information
pl. help.

It's not a normal message but the most frequent cause of
installation issues is the wrong logon, hence the question.
I just googled Error 1603. The first two are:
http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q111019
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/834484
If one of the Google items does not fix it, you will need to
contact Adobe. It would help if you could post back whichever
solution does fix the problem.

  • Problem of installing trial version(Illustrators)

    I downloaded creative cloud and try to install trial version of Illustrator
    on PC Window 8.1. However it always show"install failure". I have try to
    close the anti-virus software and the installation is still failure.  Does
    it mean that there are some problems on the setting of my PC(for example
    window 7 instead of window 8.1)?

    Did you try my suggestions in your other thread?

  • Problem with Installing Trial of Flash CS5.5

    I'm trying to install the trial version of Flash CS5.5.  I have downloaded it with the Adobe Downloader without problems.  However, when I try to install the program, it gives me an error.  I am able to select the "trial" radio button and can accept the user agreement.  When it tries to install, it gives me the following error message: "The Setup encountered an error(-1) during install. Please restart the machine and try again."  I have restarted and tried to install the software several times without success. 
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    DancingCavy9 the advantage of setting up a new administrator account is that account has fresh permissions assigned to it.  This is why it is a recommended form of troubleshooting. 
    The install logs document will allow you to review the install logs. Alternately if you would like to run the Adobe Support Advisor, select the option to Package for Support, and respond to this thread with your token number I would be happy to review your install logs.

  • Problem to install LR trial - why?

    Hi, I have downloaded LR trial V 4.3 from here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_lightroom&loc=de and have problems to install it.
    My system runs under Windows Vista, all service packs etc. installed.
    The download worked without problems, but when I try to install, the windows hourglass (actually a blue-green circle in Vista) is shown for about 10 or 20 seconds, the hard disk works for several minutes, and then - nothing happens. No error message, no further action.
    Even the usual security question ("Do you want to run this file...") is not shown.
    Here is some information about the setup file:
    File name: Lightroom_4_LS11.exe (or Lightroom_4_LS11_win_4_3.exe when downloaded from the Adobe US site)
    File size: 808.970.536 Bytes
    I have tried the following, trying to figure out the reason for the problem:
    1. Downloaded the same file again -> same problem.
    2. Downloaded from Adobe's US site instead of DE -> different file name but same file size, same problem.
    3. Opened the file as an administrator -> same problem.
    4. Rebooted -> same problem.
    5. Checked the log files of the antivirus software -> clean.
    5. Tried with an old installation file from V4.1 -> this one works as expected (asking for the location to extract the files etc.).
    I hope somebody has an idea why this installer does not work or can tell me how to continue.
    Thank you,
    Roger

    Try the basic troubleshooting steps :
    Enable the hidden Admin Account on Windows 7 ( Ref :  http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/enable-the-hidden-adminis trator-account-on-windows-vista/ )
    --> It’s already enabled
    Disable all Non-Microsoft Startup Services. (Ref : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-servic es-windows.html )
    --> I have disabled it.
    Disable all the Antivirus softwares like CA, Norton,Mc Afee etc. temporarily from the computer.
    --> I have disable it.
    Reboot and Install in the enabled Administrator account and check.

  • Problem in installing ACS trial version

    Hi,
    I am having problem in installing ACS 4.1 trial version. On invoking the progem after installation completion, I get the web page "CiscoSecure ACS Trial 127.0.0.1:2002" opened.
    Appreciate your advise, why I am getting this web page and how to fix it.
    Thanks

    You need to add the site 127.0.0.1 (or localhost) to the trusted sites list in IE then when you open the link you will get the ACS welcome page. (Make sure you install the Java runtime as well).

  • Anyone else had problems downloading RH9 trial version?

    I have unsuccessfully tried to download the RoboHelp 9 trial version using various browsers (IE, Firefox, Safari) on both my work and personal laptops.  Received the following error message when trying to download the trial this morning using Safari.  Has anyone else had problems downloading the trial version?  I just ran across download information on Adobe's website this morning stating that popups, firewalls, 3rd party security, etc. must be disabled before downloading.  Is this the problem or is there an issue at Adobe's end??
    I haven't used RoboHelp in many years and need to get the trial installed asap in order to compare against Flare 8.
    Thank you.
    Ruth Markham

    Hi Ruth,
    Yes probably, your firewall, might be obstructing.
    I was wondering, in case you are still facing the issue then you can try following steps too--
    1) Go to this page (copy to your address bar)
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=robohelp&loc=en_us&promoid=DJDVH
    2) Log in using your Adobe ID and Password
    3) Copy paste each of the below links in the address bar, one at a time and hit "Enter" from keyboard (Return)
    http://trials.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/RBHP/9/win32/RoboHelp_9_WWEFDJ.exe
    http://trials.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/RBHP/9/win32/RoboHelp_9_WWEFDJ.7z
    4) Once you ahve downloaded both of the links, use the EXE to initialize the installer.
    Good Luck!
    Thanks,

  • I have a problem with installing PS13 as I get an error message "This installer does not support installation on a 64-Bit Windows operating system. Please download the 64-Bit version of Photoshop Elements." how do i do this?

    i have a problem with installing PS13 as I get an error message "This installer does not support installation on a 64-Bit Windows operating system. Please download the 64-Bit version of Photoshop Elements." how do i do this

    Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
    You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

  • Problem with installing Photoshop elements 9 and adobe support advisor

    Hi, I've received a graphic tablet with 2 programs: the first has been downloaded and works perfectly while the second, PSE9, has been giving me problems for at least a week!
    I downloaded it and now I have a winzip file full of strange things (one of this is set up exe which tells me that I have to install adobe support advisor) and two files which said 3DF.tmp and PSEP9(1).zip.download and if I try to click them they tell me that I have to find on the Net the program to open them because I can't. And I don't know which program is required.
    I tried a lot of times to download the adobe support advisor, I have enough space on my disc and my farewall is deactivated, but when the program begins I saw this annoyant message
    cpsid_82829s5 Missing installation file bootstrapper error occured
    with this code for a support from adobe 00-67325-032018052012
    I unistalled it and retried, but nothing.
    Please, I just want to use my tablet with the programs which are comprised in the package, why it's so difficult to download this damn photoshop elements 9????????????
    Thank you

    In the error message it doesn't tell me
    "Installer has detected that a machine restart is pending. It is recommended that you quit the installer, restart try again,"
    neither "Installer failed to initialize. File not found. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem."
    and I have enough space and I have Windows xp then I should be able to install it. I tried to unistall and install again the support advisor but nothing. I'm desperate.

    I tired to install trial certificate from verisign.

    First installed the certificate in server cert tab under manage certificate
    then installed in CA cert tab to make the certificate trust. It went well through the wizard but the cert name didnot appear in list of trusted CA cert.
    so to enable ssl i checked enable ssl under the encryption tab.
    and restarted the Directory server ...
    after asking for password (pin)
    it gave me the error failed to start the server not able to start ns-slapd
