Problem installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 Trial

When installing the trial version of Adobe Photoshop CS3, I get an error message saying that there has been a "fatal error". What is the problem? I have re-downloaded the exe more than once, closed all programs, etc.
Thanks for any help.

  • When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an erro

    When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Internal Error 2739" I have used the cleanup script included in Adobe Photoshop CS3 installer, and have removed all traces of Adobe apps including the beta versions and Acrobat 8 pro, and I still get the same error, how can I install this application? is there any way or do I have to reformat and reinstall windows?

    Hello everyone,
    I was having the same issue:
    "Setup Error. Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Quit."
    If you receive this error also, press Quit and follow these steps:
    1. Start
    2. Control Panel
    3. Administrative tools (in classical view)
    4. Event Viewer
    5. Application
    You will see something like this:
    Double-Click for error (emphasized by red color). I have an error like this:
    "Error 1327.Invalid Drive: E:\" if you have the same or e.g. Drive F:\ ir whatever letter, you should solve this problem extremely easy - just insert USB-flash into computer (it will launch as E\ or whatever disk) and than run installation again. It will work than.
    Setup doesnt start if disk is offline.

  • I'm having problems installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 12.

    I'm having problems installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 12.
    The problem is right at the end of installation, it (the Install Shield Wizard) says status is registering and then immediately does an action rollback.
    The message I get is:
    'The wizard was interrupted before Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 could be completely installed. Your system has not been modified. To complete installation at another time, please run the installation again.'
    If anyone can offer some help, please, that would be great.
    Thanks.

  • Problems installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 - Rollback action issue.

    Im having problems installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 9.
    The problem is right at the end of installation, it says status is registering and then immediately does an action rollback.
    The message "The wizard was interrupted before Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 could be completely installed. Your system has not been modified. To complete installation at another time, please run setup again."
    I have also created a new administrator account and after rebooting tried to install it but with the same result. It appears to get to the end of the program install but falls over just before the Organiser install. There are no error messages. AV and surplus programs have been stopped. Desktop clean up run.  XP machine well within required spec.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • How to install adobe photoshop cs3 dvd

       How do I install Adobe Photoshop CS3 DVD to my computer  windows 7  I put the DVD in and nothing comes up to install it

    Hi mvigus,
    If the installer doesn't start automatically (you don't see the autoplay screen), navigate to the contents of your disc in Windows Explorer. Double-click the setup.exe file. Ensure that you are logged in as the administrator of your computer. Also, after the installation is complete, run the software with administrator permissions.
    Let me know if this helped.
    Thanks,

  • Problem installing Adobe Photoshop CS4. Please help me.

    Hi Geeks,
    I am stuck with Adobe Photoshop CS4 (Trial) installation since last two days. I am desperately looking for help to get rid of this problem.
    My Problem:
    At the end of installation of Adobe Photoshop CS4 (Trial) i was prompted with en error
    message stating some of the components were not installed.  When I check the more information button provided in the error message window, it showed below error.
    “Adobe Photoshop CS4 English Language Pack Error: Error 2.”
    Still I could find the installed Photoshop in C:\Program files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Photoshop.exe
    When I executed above file; application showed below error message and close it.
    “Some of the application components are missing from the application directory, Please reinstall the application.”
    I just try to run Adobe Device Central CS4 which was installed along with it.  It showed below error message.
    “The Localized resource files for this application could not be loaded. Please reinstall or repair the application and try again.”
    So My Problem is I am unable to open Photoshop CS4 after its unsuccessful installation.
    I spent more than a day in different ways as I explained below in more info section.  I am desperately looking for helping hands to fix this problem.
    I ever find this kind of difficulty with any other components installation in my 10 years of development experience.  Please help me.
    More info:
    (1) I have downloaded Adobe Photoshop CS4 (Trial) in this month (July 09) from adobe official site.
    (2) My PC OS Windows XP SP3.
    (3) Prior to install Photoshop CS4 I had Acrobat reader 8 and Adobe DW CS4.
    (4) After I read some stuff on net, I downloaded both Windows install Clean up and CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility.exe.
    (5) First I uninstalled all DW CS4 and Photoshop CS4 using add/remove then rebooted.
        then ran CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility.exe (which really did not removed as it did not
        find any Adobe component), then installed Photoshop CS4. No luck. same error.
    (6) This time I ran CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility.exe and removed DW CS4, Photoshop CS4 and flash and rebooted. Then I ran Photoshop CS4 as Administrator. Same thing repeated at the end of installation and when I tried to open the photoshop.  Finding a real hard time with it.
    Any kind of help to get rid of this problem would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    R Sunil.

    PS CS4 software itself has to be installed as Admin. Put the downloaded folder on the desktop (if not there already). Open the folder and right click on the .exe file and choose run as Admin.
    Install on C drive is the best stable choice.
    Before you do all this make the anti-virus is turned off. If windows defender is running turn that off too. If Adobe reader is installed renove that. Ensure no other adobe products are running in the background.
    During install the process will hang at 90 percent for about 10 to 15 mins. This is normal.
    After the software is installed reboot computer.
    After reboot go to start, All Programs and right click on PS CS4. Click on properties, Compatibility and check run as Admin. Hit Apply and OK to close. Run PS CS4 and update to 11.0.1
    Be Advised:
    Now the biggest problem you might run into is that the trial install went too far and failed. If this happened you cannot re-install PS CS4 trial because of the DRM that is hidden in the registry hive. The hidden DRM prevents people from installing the trial more then once and limits the trial at 30 days. There is nothing you can do other then nuking the hard drive and a fresh install of your operating system.

  • Installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Leopard (headaches really...)

    Hi,
    I'm a Tiger user and i have another Mac that runs Leopard. I have Photoshop CS3 on a Disc and used in to install on my mac with Tiger, then when i try with the mac that runs Leopard i run into some issues.
    One Error Message states :
    "The application Photoshop CS3
    (beta10.0x20061208) [k] (Universal) quit
    unexpectedly.
    When i open the .Dmg on the disc (or when i drag it to the HD) i get the following message :
    The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data
    in "adobephotoshop1012-06.dmg" could not be read or
    written.
    (Error code -36)
    If anyone can help me it'd be greatly appreciated. like i said i've done this before successfully on a freshly updated Tiger. this problem is new to me. thanks for reading.
    -Ryan

    *"The application Photoshop CS3*
    *(beta10.0x20061208) [k] (Universal) quit*
    unexpectedly."
    For starters, you're using a beta version, dated Dec 8, 2006...which is not final and still contains bugs... CS3 was not released until Sprint 2007. and second, based on it's file name, your application appears to have been illegally "Kracked"...hense the [k].
    If you do in fact have a valid legal license of Photoshop, you should probably post your question on Adobe's forums:

  • Im having problems installing Adobe Photoshop Elements 8

    Hello!
    Please excuse my bad English. I help myself with Google translate.
    I have a Mac OS X 10.6.6.
    Even one month before I download the and installed a trial version of Adobe Design Premium CS5. Trial period has expired. I intend it in the short to buy.
    But the problem I have with PSE8.
    I bought a Wacom intuos tablet. So I can download Adobe Photoshop Elements 8. But I can not install the program.
    I tried all three tips but I did not succeed. then I clicked the button More informations.
    It has opened up another window titledPackage for Suport. The content is as follows: Please copy the "key" bellow to a safe location and press Close. You will need this key if you open a support case with Adobe. If you need this key I will be sent it separately.
    Please help me install PSE8.
    Thank you very much for the reply
    s. Aleša

    Well now the forum finally working like it should. I was always logged in, I saw my name at the top. However, when I clicked on the link Log / Registration, came forward error 404th I waited one hour without logging off and re-clicked. Finally, the forum in my browser started to work normally.
    There is no problem that would not be able to send files to the server from which it can take you. The problem is that my /Library/Logs/Adobe/  folder is empty. How is it that the folder is empty? I have installed Adobe Design Premium CS5 too, although tryal version has expired. And even these files can not look in the folder. PSE8 but I can not even until the end of Installations.
    So I tried to send Screnshot to you to see that the folder is empty. I know that you need a file, but how do I send it to you, if the file is not in the folder?
    Maybe I have the settings set to not see certain files?
    I called the support in my country, but only help those who have bought the program in their company. :-((( 

  • Installing Adobe Photoshop CS3

    I have not had any luck installing Photoshop CS3 after uninstalling The Beta PScs3
    G5 2 gig   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    I'm in the same boat:
    A little history. I had it installed on two machines, a G5 desktop and a new MBP.
    G5
    First tried installing on the G5. I ran the de-installer application that was in the HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/installers folder. I checked via Spotlight and found lots of files pertaining to CS3 so deleted the via Spotlight and the Find function.
    Result: can't install due to conflict.
    Realized that I hadn't de-authorized CS3 so brought over the application from the MBP, launched and was able to go thru the de-authorization process.
    Result: conflict with CS3
    Re-ran the de-installer again with same result.
    I then tried the "Clean" script provided by Adobe and got the message: Couldn't open "Applications/Adob.". Well of course, is was re moved by the other application.
    MBP
    Knowing about the de-autorization necessary I launched CS3 to go thru the process and was told that the trial period had expired and I had to remove CS3.
    Ran the de-installer which left a lot of files that I removed as I did on the G5.
    Result: Conflict with CS3.
    I have gone thru the various Adobe Tech Notes but have found nothing addressing the state I find myself in now.
    Does anyone have a suggestion as how to proceed.
    Note: I've tried reaching Adobe Support via phone, with the obvious result - a quick message about following the Tech Note and then they hang up.
    Do you think an Archive and Install might be required?

  • When trying to install Adobe Photoshop CS3, an error message comes up. What do I do?

    The error message says, "The Installer Database is corrupted. Please contact Adobe Support if this problem continues." What do I do? It won't install at all, I just get the error message.

    Which operating system are you using?
    Do you have any other adobe software installed like photoshop elements?
    see if this helps:
