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

  • 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
    Any

    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).

  • 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 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.

    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.

    Fresh install of trial version of Captivate 8 on OS X 10.9.3 - no previous version of Captivate on machine.  I've got lots of crashing to desktop problems right off the bat.  Is there a patch available?  I work at a University and we're evaluating for online courseware - my last experience with Captivate was 5.0.  Anyone else experience this with the trial download?

    Hi there,
    There is no difference in terms of usage and features between a trial version and a licensed version.
    Could you tell me do you get any specific error message when it crashes, or does it crash while using a particular feature, or is it random?
    Can you also try with a different user account (admin) on your MAC, check if it behaves same there?
    Thanks.

  • Why did my CS4 Stop Running When I Installed a Trial Version of Elements?

    Why did my Adobe CS4 Stop Running When I Installed a Trial Version of Elements?
    I cannot use any of my purchased Adobe CS4 products.  I installed a trial version of Elements and none of my licensed CS4 components will run.  Please help.

    So let me be sure I understand:
    You can open Photoshop normally as it was before you saw the trial version?
    Bridge CS6 opens, but you cannot see your pictures?  Here's an easy way to check:
    First reboot your computer. Photoshop CS6 should open normally, that way we know it's fixed.  You can exit Photoshop
    Now...
    Make a shortcut to Bridge CS6 and place it on your desktop.
    From Windows Explorer, drag one of your picture folders to the Bridge shortcut.
    Bridge should open and show the pictures in your folder.
    If it does not, get back to me and we will look at other ideas.
