Problems installing CS2 after uninstall

I am having a problem with CS2 after an uninstall. I recently got an error working with In-Design and it had me fix the problem of course I had to do a full uninstall and reinstall.
When I get to the auto install problem it will open than immediately close doing nothing. I have even tried to make a copy of the disc to the hard drive and install that way and it will get to the password part than stop to work.
I have also followed the manual removal instructions to remove all adobe programs.
Also tried the moving disc 1 and 2 to the hard drive mount them and run the install.
Nothing I have read so far works. Help please!

No to both I'm afraid. CS2 can't be used on a Mac running Yosemite. The only version of the Creative Suite that qualifies for an upgrade is CS5. Your options are to buy CS6 or subscribe to the Creative Cloud.

Illustrator update won't install, even after uninstalling and retrying multiple times.

Illustrator update won't install, even after uninstalling (using the "Uninstall Adobe Illustrator CS6" app and retrying (using Adobe Application Manager}multiple times. Now I can't open AI CS6 at all.
The error message I get in Application Manager is:
"Application could not be found. Restore in case it was trashed/moved to a different volume. Reinstall the application otherwise (U44M1P2B)"
Help!

Can you please try installing the Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774.
If that doesn't work then the safest course would be to remove all Adobe Creative Software using the uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers. This should then remove the Adobe Application Manager folder also inside Utilities. Once the software is completely uninstalled and the Adobe Application Manager is removed then you should be able to reinstall from https://creative.adobe.com/.

Problem Installing CS2 product over CS3 Web Edition

Hi, I recently bought the CS3 Web Edition and installed it, then uninstalled CS2 Standard edition to make room on my computer... now I realize I don't have InDesign loaded and am trying to reinstall that. However, the Adobe setup isn't cooperating at all. I get stuck on providing the Adobe Photoshop 5.0 or later cd. I install PhotoShop 6.0 into my CD drive and it won't accept it. I try pointing it to the CS3 version of Photoshop and it won't accept that either. I only want to install inDesign to the computer. Is there a way around this?

This issue was resolved by calling customer support... they were able to manually over-ride the problem and provided a key code to proceed with the installation. Also, it is possible to just install inDesign, without having to re-install all the components I no longer need.

Problems installing CS2 - hangs at common files

I am installing CS2 on a new computer running Windows7 and it goes fine until it gets to the common files where it hangs up. I had to close it and the software loads but Bridge doesn't work - and I'm sure there are other problems. Could this be a faulty disk? Can I download the software from Adobe or get a new disk?
Thanks,
Marc

Same problem. At second attempt got a message that ipad memory was over capacity. I had 6GB free on the ipad2 when I started to upgrade and it was now telling me i needed more! After deleting all my photos (4GB which had been loaded from camera and the only way I could find to do this was one at a time!) the upgrade apparently succeeded but in itunes it said I now had 8GB of "Others" in the memory and only 1 GB free.
Lookign in "Diagnostics & Usage data" I can see 3 scripts coinciding with the upgrade attempts all of which start with "Sysinfocrashreporterkey" 2 with "bug-type 193" a couple of lines down, and one with "bug-type 109"
Questions:
What are the 8GB of "Others" and how do i get rid of it?
How can I bulk-delete photos transferred from camera?
What do the bug-types refer to and do they indicate a solution?

Bought snow leopard 10.6.3.( mac intel i3) having problems installing product. after 15mins computer freezes any ideas?, bought snow leopard 10.6.3.( mac intel i3) having problems installing product. after 15mins computer freezes any ideas?

Hi recently bought snow leopard 10.6.3. Having problems installing. My i Mac has intel i3 and system 10.6.8 . After about 15mins the computer restarts but freezes with apple logo. Any ideas? thanks alan

Yes, 10.6.8 update was specifically to ease the Lion installation (apart from some security updates).
Juat log onto the App Store (Icon would be in the Dock by default) and find the download. If you're not already registered with App Store, you'll need credit card info to hand, and your Apple ID (the one you use to log in here or the iTunes Store if you use it).
You would only need the retail SL disc if you were running 10.5.8 (Leopard) or earlier.

Problems installing CS2 in Win7 :(

Hello everybody,
I have recently reformatted my computer (Win7) and I tried to reinstall cs2 from a the DVDs and had some problems. I got a couple of notifications:
Invalid Unicode File
.\AutoPlay\main.ini
Error
MAIN_FILE_VERSION
Error
PRODUCT_REGISTRY_PARENT
Error
PRODUCT_REGISTRY_KEY
I copied the 4 installation disks onto my comp and now the setup.exe starts but when I click install cs2, nothing happens
I am currently working my way through this troubleshooting guide http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/400/kb400992.html but nothing has worked yet so i figured i'd see what the forum could tell me. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance everybody!!

Unicode errors would indicate that you are using an unusual and incompatible system language but based on your rather vague info nobody can know any of that.

Re-install software after uninstall with home using universal installer

after uninstalling 10g software with home using universal installer how to re-install without deleting all components of database like the database exists i just want to put the oracle software on it and reusing x home location.

Tofayel Ahmad wrote:
when it about linux then what would be the job.re-installing software in linux or windows like establishing a new database Regardless of the OS, installing the software is distinct from "establishing" a database. You can install the software without creating a database, but you cannot create a database without having installed the software.
so it's need time but for some missing services or few software components that would be a more costing. if there is a possible action that could restore the missing services in home. Huh?
The concept of "services" in Windows doesn't exist in Linux.
i thought it's would be great to startup the database in less time then installing. if i would install the software and using backup data file recover then is it a consistent recovery or inconsistent recovery.All recoveries that complete are consistent. Not all backups are consistent, but when you do a recovery, the redo stream is applied from the archivelog files to make the recovery "consistent".
so when ever need to recover what should require for consistent recovery so that i can say without this all other type of recovery jobs are inconsistent.there is no such thing as "inconsistent" recovery. You are either able to recover from your backups, or you are not able to recover. If you are able to recover, you are "consistent". Now, mind you, that does NOT necessarily mean your recovery will recover all data up to the point of failure. your ability to do that depends on having all the necessary backups, including archivelogs and ultimately, intact online redo logs. Without that, the best you can do is a point-in-time recovery. But it will still be "consistent" with the point in time to which you recover.
i am asking because as far i know i understand that no client would agree to go for inconsistent recovery. as i mentioned i am a new comer i have lot of confusion please if possible give some details. Well, I wouldn't agree to go for an inconsistent recovery, as no such thing exists. If you are talking about point-in-time recovery with potential data loss - it depends entirely on the client, the application, and the tolerance for data loss. Banking transactions cannot afford any loss of transaction data and so must have very robust systems with comprehensive, multi-level backups. Some other systems can be surprisingly forgiving.

Problem installing CS2 on Windows 7

I downloaded and attempted to install CS2 from the Adobe website and have been unsuccessful in getting past the "install disc 2" message.
I spoke with a rep via chat and they referred me here.
I have followed the directions that were included with the download as well as what the rep gave and am still unable to get past the install disc 2 message. When I click ok it just pops up again.
Can someone please help me to correctly install this program????
Thank you in advance for any help.

Hi melisweaver,
CS2 is not compatible with Win 7. Please find the system requirements to install CS2: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-photoshop.html#main_ Older_Versions .

Problems before and after Uninstall and re-install CS4

I went ahead and uninstalled and re-installed CS4 because of freeze ups and other difficulties. Program After Effects is now crashing - see attachment. There is also a problem with an importer plugin (I think) may be related. I can't tell. I have not tried any other projects. I did however, disconnect the Matrox MX02 Mini, but still had problems. The MX02 is now re-connected.
I wonder if installing CS4 on top of CS3 is an issue? I remember having a similar problem goiing from CS2 to CS3. I had to downloader a cleaning utility from Adobe (I think) to remove every bit of CS2 and then run CCleaner.
It's my own fault - trying to upgrade software and hardware at the same time. It's hard to isolate. For now, I'l just have to do with Premiere since it is working. But, I'd sure like to know what's going on.

Did you re-install all other Adobe products as well? If not, then that may be the problem. Uninstalling/ reinstalling only one of them messes with MediaCore and certain otehr functions. The quick fix is to download the manuala (!) update packages for After Effects, Premiere Pro/Encore and Adobe Media Encoder from the support pages and run them. This usually bends things in place. If not, then you will probably have to uninstall again, this time including every Adobe app, use the CS4 Clean Script and reinstall.

Acrobat XI Pro - can't re-install/download after uninstalling due to login problem

I have had CS6 via Creative Cloud for a few months now and the last couple of days when I've opened Acrobat XI Pro it says it's installed on another machine and I need to log in. I log in and it says it's a mis-matched ID, even though it's not.
This is a work computer/licence and is only installed on this machine under my name. We thought it may be confused because we've got a few licences and there was a big confusion and muck up with Adobe when we first ordered and downloaded, and my boss is using his on his work and home computers. So I uninstalled Acrobat and thought I would be able to just go to the Application Manager and download/install again, but it's not available to download, I guess it thinks I've already got it. Can't do it via https://creative.adobe.com/apps either.
I have no problems like this with the other programs; Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign.
How can I get Acrobat again?
Thanks

A restore won't get rid of the problem!!! **** crappy ****.
Is there anyway to send this question too Apple? Or do i have to spend the next hours on the phone with Apple Support?!

Problem instaling sp3 after rebooting

Hi,
I've decided to install in my macbook pro windows xp sp3 to program with visual studio c++.
What I have done is, first of all, install windows xp sp2 using an original cd, instaling the drivers and boot camp 2.0. After that I install the actualitzation to bootcamp 2.1.
When I complete all these stuff I run the windows update, check if my windows copy is originaly and immidiately it tells to me to install sp3. I install it and when at the end of the instalation it force to me to reboot the system, so I do it. But when the system is loading for the first time after installing sp3 it gets stack in the loading image.
Do you know how can I solve that problem??
Thanks a lot

Use the Repair feature in Programs -> Install/Uninstall seems to help some.
I get the sense that reinstalling BC 2.1 after SP3 install is necessary. Or don't install until SP3 (maybe uninstall BC 2.1, then upgrade to XP SP3, then install 2.1 again).

Installing iTunes after uninstall

I recently tried to update iTunes but I guess there was a problem with the automatic updater or something, so I left it as it was. Soon my computer stopped recognizing when I plugged in my iPod, and would occasionally freeze up when I tried to run it, so I uninstalled. I downloaded iTunes again today and tried to install it, but it wouldn't install. Even after deleting all of my old iTunes files, the installer crashes and says it couldn't remove the old iTunes files. Please help.

I think it goes into your temporary internet file folder...but I never allow this option! I always get my update from the Apple website (not inside iTunes) and I choose "Save" instead of "Install" and save the .exe file to my desktop. Then I turn off my virus protection and firewall--make sure nothing else is running and install the update. I also save the installation file--JUST IN CASE....you never know when you might want an earlier version of iTunes.

Problems installing CS2

Hi,
Our company found few unused licences of CS2, webmasters department received it.
But, on some machines we have problems with install. We can't install software on systems with Windows Vista Buisness, and Windows 8, on Windows 7, and Windows XP, everything works fine.
On both problematic systems, user got notification that setup was interrupted before completion of the installation of Adobe Photoshop CS2 (it's in polish but I translated it).
Anyone have some ideas how to solve that problem?

Are you trying to install from disk? You can no longer use those versions, and have to download a special version with new serial number

Problem Installing Adobe After Effects

I've heard about the Adobe After Effects CS6. And I installed the Adobe Download Assistant. But every time I clicked on the button "download" button, an Error thing came up. I also tried to download the other software and they were just fine. Only the After Effects CS6 has a problem. The Error thing I received is the " Error communicating with Adobe.com (Error 107), it asked me to restart the Download Assistant and I restarted it a lot of times... But I still just can't install it. Hope someone could help me.

Which Internet service provider are you using? Many users have posted about this but I have never been able to duplicate the behavior. No one ever seems to respond back though with their ISP information.
Beyond that you can follow the steps listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369 to initiate a direct download.

Problems Installing CS3 after CS4 install.

About 3 weeks ago or so i downloaded the beta for Dreamweaver CS4. And just a couple of days ago i tried to reinstall Flash CS3 from my CS3 Master Suite and i got this message.
Component install failed. The original installation media has been moved or deleted. Please replace the media at its original location: C:\Documents and Settings\Lucas\Desktop\AdobeCS4\Dreamweaver CS4 Beta\payloads\AdobeALMAnchorService2-mul\AdobeALMAnchorServices2-mul.msi
Right now i am trying to uninstall the DW CS4 but has anyone ran into a problem like this or have any advise on how i can fix this?

>SURELY that is implied?
Absolutely not! My guess is that the average user knows what "beta" means and the implication not to use it for real work, just in case. If they can take the time to warn you about that then they could at least let us know of potential problems in simply removing the damn thing. In fact, not so much removing it, I can live with it on my machine, it's the realization that it can seriously interfere with further installations - of their own software! If I remember correctly the beta release was displayed prominently on the Adobe homepage - "BE THE FIRST TO TRY IT!" or something similar, the implication, to my mind, is that it's safe to download.
With my fingers crossed, I hope that my upgrade to CS4 will be trouble free so it may not be a problem, but it obviously is to Lucas at the moment. I've downloaded numerous betas and removed them without any problem and assumed Dreamweaver CS4 would be the same. As I said, the average user thinks of the bugs being in the operation of the program. I now know that there's much more risk involved (with Adobe at least) and I'll be more cautious in the future.
