Problems installing photoshop and other adobe products

hey! i recently make a clean windows install. (xp pro) and wen i try to instal photoshop cs3, i run the setup.exe but nothing happens, so i cant make it work,
and with illustrator cs5, i was able to make the install, but when i try to run it it says to me that there is an invalid image, with a file named AIRes.dll
any ideas?

Not much point in your post. You did in no way provide enough info. In particular it would be relevant in which order you are attempting to install and what otehr Adobe products are on teh system. Anyway, based on your post it sounds like you already made a mess of things, so run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool and start over...

Using bootcamp to install XP followed by Photoshop and other Adobe products

I just got MacBook Pro and am about to use Bootcamp to install Windows XP so that I can use Photoshop and other such Adobe programs. Anybody, who has done this, what can you tell me about it? Does it work well? How much of a partition do you recommend? Have you encountered any problems during this process? Are there any major dangers involved with installing XP on my mac?

I have done all of the above with No Issues thus far:
1) Boot Camp/Windows partition I use is 50MB for XP SP2
2) I have Adobe Photoshop 7.0 installed
3) No problems on my side
I printed out the Boot Camp/Windows instructions and followed them exactly.

How many computers can I install Photoshop (and other adobe programs on)?

Hi. I was wondering how many computers I can install a purchased version of Photoshop onto (or other Adobe products)? Can I install one copy onto two systems I own, eg: my desktop and laptop? Or only one total? Can I buy additional licenses for that version if needed? What about with older products Eg: Photoshop 4 Extended, or another?
Thank you.

I'll reply to my own post witht his for anyone else who wants it. i jsut chedked out Photoshop 5's system requirem
ents and just found out yes there are two licenses or more - if you pay.

Anyone want to add anything: Please do.
I would like to say that being able to add software onto 2 systems, especially software for productivity and fun, is highly important. This is something Adobe needs to keep doing and a lot of other companies too. Plus it is something some companies need to look into if they can set up the system right. This is one reason I am planning on buying one companies software for music production over the other (which also requires the usb key/lock or company #2's product doesn't work). It is a good selling point for someone like me with a desktop and laptop, cost is a factor with double programs.

I upgraded my MacBook Pro to OSX 10.9.4 Mavericks and now will close Photoshop and other Adobe CS6 in a few minutes.

Installing Acrobat Broke Other Adobe Products

Hello there,
Hopefully this is the appropriate forum... I recently installed Acrobat 9, which broke all of my other installed Adobe products. I'm officially a Technical writer, so I have RoboHelp (version 8 if it matters) and Captivate (6); I recently took on some other duties, so I acquired a license for CS5 and most recently one for Acrobat 9. I had CS5 and RoboHelp/Captivate existing together peacefully, but when I installed/activated Acrobat 9, everything else stopped working (though Acrobat works).
The CS5 programs seem to have been deregistered entirely because they're now being treated like trials again whenever I open any of those programs (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Dreamweaver, etc). Starting RoboHelp gives me an error 5: "This product has has encountered a problem which requires that you restart your computer before it can be launched." And Captivate just plain won't launch (says it has stopped working moments after launch).
I'm assuming these problems are all related, but I don't really know how beyond a licensing conflict, and I don't know how to fix them without uninstalling everything and starting from scratch. So far I've tried restarting a couple times, as the RoboHelp error suggested. Before I realized it was everything and not just RoboHelp I also attempted to uninstall RoboHelp and delete some folders, as suggested in this forum post. Neither helped (and RoboHelp wouldn't uninstall properly either). I'm not even sure where to begin to search for a solution to this problem, so I'm hoping some Adobe experts can shine some light on what's going wrong here.
Thanks a ton to anyone who can help!

I still haven't been able to figure this out. I'm probably going to make a support call today, but I'd still appreciate any help. Thanks!

In spite of having a fairly good network connection,On installing photoshop and other softwares,its asking me to recheck and try again, Why?

Its says ,
You must have a working internet connection to use this product.Please check your connection settings and choose try again.If you still experience problems,contact customer support

I wouldn't worry about your firewall just yet. There are other factors far more likely to be the cause.
What operating system are you using, and where are you up to in the installation process? Do you have the CC Desktop Application Manager installed OK? If you have got to that stage, best practice if having problems is to restart your computer. If running Windows 7 or 8.1, right click and run the Desktop Application Manager as Administrator. Then install Photoshop.
Note. that the progress bar uses the first half to indicate the download progress, and second half to show the installation on your computer. If the bar reaches half way and stalls, then it is the install that is giving problems.
If you have tried and failed, you might need to run the cleaner tool.

Issues with flash and other adobe products.

Ok, so i've been using flash player for quite a number of years now aswell as other products like acrobat reader when i used windows, over the years flash player has developed into a totally inneffecient and almost unusable product. on top of the security issues of past with flash player and especially acrobat reader, with remote code execution vulnerabilities, i have, as have thousands of others noticed a very large decrease in performance with flash.
i should note that a year or two ago, i could play HD flash content no problem, both 720 and 1080 resolutions, full screen without any issue. i would expect it to take up a decent portion of cpu cycles, which it did, i use to be able to run flash content at 720 with about 30 - 50% cpu usage. now it seems with flash 10 my AMD Athlon 4000+ struggles to play even 720 videos. My cpu is by no means a top performer, it is however capable of handling somewhere in the region of a billion instructions per second. for video content to require that amount of data to be handled is rediculous.
HD content played back on my local machine using a different codec, my cpu barely even uses 5 - 10% cpu time, not only that, these videos have roughly about the same compression rates as flash videos. i just don't understand how flash can require so much resources without taking into account innefficient and bloated code.
today i tried to access a web page that required flash content to display images, it was not a video, but an image database, going from one page to the next took somewhere in the region of 20 - 30 seconds, while my cpu maxed out at 100% and firefox stopped responding, which is totally unnacceptable.
it wouldn't normally be a problem if there were good alternatives, but there aren't any, im stuck with this piece of crap software if i want to view any flash content. the only real alternative is to upgrade, which i am not prepared to do if the next version of flash is just going to push those boundries even further for features i don't need.
my proposal is to:
1. rewrite the code with effeciency rather than new features in mind, if that means getting able programmers in, then so be it.
2. make flash modulous, where the basic package provides capabilties to play flash content and separate plugins to provide for all the individual unnecessary features that are not required for basic flash content. surely you can build a package that provides all those plugins for regular users and a basic package + optional plugins for those who know what they want or need.
it really makes no sense why such a large corporation with all this experience to provide a product that quite simply.. sucks, well it does actually, either your programmers are incapable of creating a stable, efficient product or you are purposly trying to push hardware upgrades onto people. lets not forget that flash content is huge business on the web, adobe flash player has a strangle hold on that market, it would be naive to think that hardware vendors have not approached adobe with specifications to further make the money wheel go round.
sort it out, because i for one, am in the process of completely removing my dependancy on adobe flash, if the right product comes along, others will do to, in droves. it's a bubble that is going to burst and there is no way back when you have millions of lines of quite frankly, amateurish code.

Eric,
The GTX 650 would be priced slightly higher than the GT 640 - and then, the OP would have to "settle" for only 1GB of graphics RAM instead of 2GB. The GTX 650 is currently not available with 2GB of RAM.
Both the GT 640 and the GTX 650 are based on the same GPU - the GK107, with 384 CUDA cores. The two major differences are that the GK107 on the GTX 650 is clocked higher than the one on the GT 640, and that the GTX 650 has almost triple the memory bandwidth of the GT 640 (80 GB/s versus 28.8 GB/s).

We need some information about Photoshop CS4 and Other Adobe Products Purchase

We purchased Photoshop CS4 Extended for our educational use as Volume License...
When we purchased the following products:
1. Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended
2. Adobe Dreamweaver CS4
3. Adobe Page Maker 7.0
4. Adobe Flash CS4 Professional
we only got the "SERIAL NO. (VL) with Licence Certificate". We didn't get any Application CD/DVD media or Manuals.?
Then we downloaded and installed the product with the serial supplied. product is working fine.. but if Adobe is charging such amount for their product, then the Applicatio Media & Manuals should be issued for the client.
Why?
kindly send your valuble feedback about this to us on : [email protected]

For the past several years, manuals come as PDF files, even if you buy the retail license. Do you hate the environment and want to kill trees?
Downloaded files should be backed up on a blank DVD.
Your purchasing agent should have been aware that a license and media are two separate purchases for volume customers.

Adobe is not 'charging such amount'. You have the cheapest license available and have the same product as a retail user. Appreciate it.

Seamless data migration between forms and other adobe products

How can I migrate data from a form to complete a pdf fillable form (such as a contract) and then send to echosign in an automated process?

Hi;
If this question is related to PDF forms created in Acrobat, and not related to FormsCentral you should post (or I can move to) the Acrobat Forms Forums: http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/forms
If it is about FormsCentral, there is nothing in FormsCentral that supports automated data migration.

Lightroom And Other Adobe Products With Direct X 10

I am just curious about whether or not Abobe products use Direct X as well as OpenGL and if in the future it will make full use of Direct X 10 on Vista machines. Direct X 10 seems to have some of the gamers positively drooling.

My Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard stopped working after I performed an msconfig. I get the following message: "You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling this product..." I installed this on Jan. 7, 2010 and I have since misplaced the disk.
How do I fix the problem?

Hi Ali,
You can download Acrobat 9 Std. from: https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/8d640488-4a92-4f7d-b50b-d8eb7f96bff8
and reinstall the software.

Hi mansons67992701,
No purchase is required to install Flash Player. The offer you're seeing is optional. There should be a yellow 'Install Now' button on the bottom right of the page. Is the button not displaying? Please post a screenshot of the page (How to post a screenshot in the forum).

I installed indesign CS5 on new macbook pro and keeps freezing with spinning wheel once the app opens. Is there an issue with OS Mav or font issue or a plist I can pull. All other Adobe products work.

Migration should never be done with any Adobe program.
If you have done Migration, you have to UNINSTALL first (if even possible) and then download Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and run that also. When this is done, restart your computer and install the programs from an original Adobe Installer.
Other question is, if your OS is supporting that version. You can try it, it is not officially supported, but it might work.
But CC will work, upgrade to CC2014 (without additional cost), use that as it is better anyway.

Should I re-install photoshop and adobe apps

Hello,
I have Mac pro, and i previously installed leopard on a 2nd hard drive. I re-installed my FCS Pro on it. I was wondering do I need to re install photoshop and all my adobe software on my new drive with leopard? I was able to run my previous version of photoshop. i haven't fully tested it though. will there be problems in the long run. or??
thanks..
/BU

Just because you're doing something doesn't mean Adobe supports it. None of the Leopard related fixes they have released are applicable to anything prior to CS3.
To quote the source:
"While older Adobe applications may install and run on Mac OS X Leopard, they were designed, tested, and released to the public several years before this new operating system became available. You may, therefore, experience a variety of installation, stability, and reliability issues for which there is no resolution. Older versions of our creative software will not be updated to support Mac OS X."
And regarding Photoshop CS2 specifically:
"Likely to encounter issues for which there is
no resolution. "
