Problem installing dw cs4 on mac osx 10.5.7

Hi,
I am encountering a weird problem when trying to install dw cs4 on my macbook which runs osx 10.5.7. My user account has admin privilliges, yet when running the setup / installation file either from the disk or by downloading the trial - 2 dreamweaver icons appear in my dock, bounce up and down for a few seconds then disappear.
Are there any known issues installing dw cs4 on 10.5.7?
I have done an OS update to ensure im running the latest version.
I tried installing DW on another laptop running 10.4.11 which worked seamlessly.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give

Dragging Adobe files to the Trash on a Mac is the surest way to installation nightmare. Adobe products need to be properly uninstalled using the Adobe installer. You will need to clean up your system using the CS4 Clean script from http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html.

  • Problems installing Adobe XI on MAC OSX

    I am trying to install adobe reader on my Mac OS X Yosemite. I was unable to open some pdf files and got a message that I needed to download the newer version of Adobe Reader, so I have tried numerous times. I seem to be able to download it (I have tried both Safari and Mozila and it shows up in my download file) but when I try to install it, it only installs 44% and then just seems to get hung up. I have a window that says Adobe Reader Installer and the progress stops at 44%. Anyone else have this problem?Any ideas? I tried uninstalling all my Adobe Apps and rebooting, but alas, that didn't work. I'm stumped.

    You can try using the full offline Reader installer from

  • Can I install Adobe CS4 on  Mac OS X v10.9?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know whether you can install Adobe CS4 on MAC OS X v.9?
    Thanks!

    For the most part this should work, but you will need to make sure to e.g. fix the permissions on the Library folder because 10.9 handles this differently from previous versions of OSX. And of course there may be any number of other compatibility issues that may require manual fiddling.

  • Problem install PSE11 with a MAC OS disc on MACBook Air

    problem install PSE11 with a MAC OS disc on MACBook Air   I've done the serial number, adobe ID, Option and now install "installation Progess" with a message Please close all of the following applications to continue:  Adobe Bridge CS4, Photoshop Elements (Adobe Photoshop elements)  I've checked to insure those are closed. Yes they are close - press "continue" but nothing happen.  HELP!

    Look in Activity Monitor (Applications>Utilities) to see if there are any adobe processes still running somewhere in the background.
    (Incidentally, just in case you're a new switcher--closing the window doesn't normally close the program on a mac, unlike windows. You must still quit the program itself.)

  • Can not install photoshop CS2 on Mac OSX. 10.9.5, It shows "error" no error number, suggest to contact the software supplier, only choice is to quit.

    I tried to install Photoshop CS2 on Mac, OSX, 10.9.5.
    By the end of the installation, it shows, error, but no error number for reference,
    The only choice is "quit".
    Please help

    That is correct Das_Sad.  CS2 will not run on Intel based processors under Mac OS.  You will need to find a Mac computer with a PowerPC processor if you wish to run Creative Suite 2.

  • Problems installing VadoCentral_MAC_APP_LA_1_2_3.zip on Mac

    Problems installing VadoCentral_MAC_APP_LA__2_3.zip on Mac? Preamble: st gen Vado HD
    macbook pro running OS X Snow leopard 0.6.2
    I'm having a tough time installing the Vado Central SW on my Mac. I tried installing VadoCentral_MAC_APP_LA___0_df6, too. Similar results with both, I get a message "Installation failed."? This comes as no surprise since my mac never installs anything without prompting for an administrator login. So, I ignored the instructions to plug in the Vado after the installation was complete, and plugged it in and tried re-installing the software with the Vado as the installation destination.... which makes sense since it seems to run the Windows Vado Central from the Vado. VadoCentral_MAC_APP_LA__2_3.zip would not let me select any device except the mac hard dri've.
    With VadoCentral_MAC_APP_LA___0_df6 I was able to install change the install location to the Vado HD device. It appears to have created an applications folder containing Vado Central.app. But, now when I plug in the Vado, it still automatically starts iPhoto. If I browse the Vado and double click the Vado Central.app, OS X first prompts, asking me if I want to install the application to the local computer. Click "No", then I get prompted that Vado Central rquires the flv2ITunes transcorder downloaded and installed. Click "Yes", then I'm prompted that a newer version of Vado Central is available, "Do you want to download...", click "Yes". It downloads and installs somewhere, but apparently not on the Vado, because it puts me through all of this every time. Whatever/whereever the software is being updated, it's not changing the Vado Cental.app on the Vado, based on the timestamp.
    Can somebody provide the correct installation instructions? The minimal instructions on the Creative download page appear to be wrong. (I've looked at the other threads complaining about the mac installation, they don't seem to match my experience.)
    TIA

    I have a Vado HD 2nd generation. I use it exclusi'vely on my MacBook.
    The firmware version that my Vado came with is "v.250.
    I found out the version on my unit by holding down the Delete button
    while turning the unit on.
    Is it possible that your unit is not installing v.23 because your unit already has a later version?
    Hope this helps.

  • Problem Installing Air on 2 Macs

    I'm having a problem installing Air on 2 macs.  The symptoms are the same - the installer launches and nothing else happens.
    Configuration 1:
    Macbook Pro (Feb 2008); 2.5 GHz; MacOS 10.6.3
    Configuration 2:
    PowerMac G5; dual 2.5 GHz; MacOS 10.5.8
    Both computers have Design Premium CS3 installed, in case that matters.
    Here's the log off of the laptop:
    Performing runtime install
    UI SWF load is complete
    UI  initialized
    starting user confirmation
    Version of  this installer: 1.5.3.9130
    Installation type: new
    And there it stays.  The installer is running and I can choose Quit from its menu.  It looks like it's waiting for user authentication, but the dialog never appears.  Since the symptoms on both are the same, I'm guessing that whatever the cause is something common to both computers.  I've had no problems installing Flash or any other program.  This looks to be specific to Air.
    FWIW, I tried installing the beta of Air 2.0 hoping that might work.  No difference!  Here's that log (from Console):
    4/8/10 2:55:22 PM Adobe  AIR Installer[1488] Performing  runtime install
    4/8/10 2:55:22 PM Adobe AIR  Installer[1488] UI SWF load is complete

    4/8/10 2:55:22 PM Adobe AIR  Installer[1488] Installation  type: new
    The only difference is when I quit out the version 2 installer, a crash report is generated.  I can post that if anyone thinks it would help.
    Any suggestions?

  • How to install oldest version of mac osx

    According to Mactracker, given the size of the screen and the CPU speed your MBP could be one of these models:
    - MacBookPro5,1, which originally shipped with OS X 10.5.5
    - MacBookPro5,3, which originally shipped with OS X 10.5.7
    Since they originally shipped with OS X 10.5, the system disc that came with your MBP may have 10.5 on it. If so, you should be able to do a reinstall from the original disc. If you do a full backup to another volume before you do that, you can recover your data from the backup to your MBP. However, some migrating some of the data (such as Mail messages) may be tricky due to format changes.

  • Can't install flash player on Mac OSX version 10.4.11

    Hello
    I've spent the morning trying to do this and still no joy. I had flash player already and when trying to use the 4oD website it asked me to download or upgrade flashplayer. I did, the correct version according to my mac version. All goes well and the window message says 'installed successfully'.The only thing I find strange is that just before this message appears I hear the sound of items being put in the 'trash' ... and there they are. Other times the message error -1409 appears. The only icon that appears is the Flash player installer.pkg so not sure whether the application was installed or just the installer!  All web searches prompt me to download the missing plug in, both in safari and mozilla. Java script is definitely enabled on both browsers.
    I have use the uninstall package three times, restarted the computer, downloaded flash player again but no change.
    Forgive my limited use of jargon - this doesn't make any sense to me but I've just spent 3 hours following instructions to no avail.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello,
    I am in Germany and need to switch Photoshop to English.
    The option is not available in the language preferences (attached screenshot)
    I could only find an update for Mac OSX 10.4, but not 10.7?
    Please help!
    Thanks in advance!

    Languages are serial number specific. You cannot change them on the fly. If your serial number supports it, you would have to install it in English. anything beyond that is a hack like stripping the localization files from the app package...
