PSE 10 Install Issue

I've had several issues with all things Adobe since last fall on my Mac OS X.  I've uninstalled PSE 10 about a half dozen times, and reinstalled it.  I just attempted to do it again, as many actions I had saved weren't running properly.  I've done the uninstall per directions, but when I try to reinstall, I get the error message that it failed to initialize.  Can someone help please?
Thanks Kindly.

Uninstalling and reinstalling is usually the last line of defense, not the first. I would go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 settings
Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 paths
This library is hidden in 10.7 and 10.8. To see it, option+click the Go menu in the finder. It will appear below the little house for your user account. If using 10.7 and 10.8, also go into the Saved Application States folder and delete everything for PSE.
In any version, if you use organizer also delete com.adobe.Elements Organizer10.plist and com.adobe.Elements Organizer.10.0.plist.
Repair permissions afterwards. For your installation problem, I would try creating a new admin account (system preferences>users & groups) and log in there to run the installation. If it goes well, you can delete the new account afterwards.

  • SP2010 Foundation Post Install issues on development workstation - Database and Services

    Just recently installed SP2010 Foundation for a development workstation.  Platform isWin7 X64 pro, SQL 2008 (Developer edition)
    (1) Looks like search has some configuration issues.  This is in the Windows event log
    The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.SharePoint.Search.Administration.SPSearchJobDefinition (ID 38eefca2-d092-47f4-a833-23f8280c5f63) threw an exception. More information is included below.
    The device is not ready.  
    (2) In Central Admin > Servers in Farm
    Status - "Upgrade Available", 
    (3) In Central Admin > Manage Database Upgrade Status
    Sveral of the Datbase(s) mention that upgrade is recommended, but one in particular mentions that the DB is too old?
    WSS_Search_GHHTY
    SPSearchDatabase
    Database is too old and upgrade is required
    Huh?  
    (4) Looking at my local SQL 2008 instance that SP2010 created, I see several DB's with "Config" in the name along with a guid on the end of the name.  Is the result of re-running the configuration wizard several times while
    I was correcting install issues?

    here is question, i am assuming its fresh install not upgrade...
    when you run the config wizard( you mentioned many times), which option you select from 2nd try to on ward....cannot disconnect this server from farm?
    are you using any script to install ?
    I would say run the config wizard without disconnecting and this server will host CA option.
    from the central admin > manager server in farm...on top you will see farm version and config database name. note it
    from the Manage database Upgrade status page note all the db names
    now match it on sql and keep those and all other should gone now as a clean process.

  • Mac OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues

    Hi,
    I have a Mac Powerbook G4 with OS X installed and Adobe CS3.
    I've installed a font. The font works in Photoshop and Illustrator
    but not in Flash CS3. Why? I've put the font in the Library/Fonts
    folder and the User/Fonts folder and it still doesn't show up in
    Flash. Apparently this is a problem for a number of people see
    another forum here:
    MAC
    OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues Forum
    Please let me know what to do to fix this. I need to be able
    to work with the font in all three applications Flash, Photoshop
    and Illustrator.

    Hi davidd61713525,
    Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
    Unfortunately, it looks like something is wrong with the file system and the installer can't see the root drive to install to.  A Google search returns numerous results affecting various products and the recurring theme is that something is wrong with the disk.  There are many recommendations from various sources, but nothing definitive.
    Here's a similar thread over on the Apple forums:
    Broken Installer Permissions | Apple Support Communities
    And a similar older one:
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1203509
    I would try the following options:
    Try using the PKG installer. This is used Mac SysAdmins to install Flash Player within their organization and uses a slightly different installer path, which may or may not work.
    Some people have had success with disk and permissions repair some have not.  You can try running a disk and permissions repair.  After the disk and permissions repair is complete, reboot the system and try to install again using either the online installer (get.adobe.com/flashplayer) or the offline installer, posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac page in the ‘Still having problems’ section.
    If these options do not work, I'd reach out to Apple support to see if they have a suggestion.  If you do find a resolution to this, please let me know.  I'll be happy to share it with people that encounter the problem in the future.

  • Webutil install issue

    Hello,
    I have a strange WebUtil install issue on 10gIAS 10.1.2.0.2. I downloaded the 1.0.6 WU version and put it into a webutil directory under forms (which the pre-configuration of AS seem to assume) and when I call the forms servlet with ?config=webutil the "RegisterWebUtil - Loading WebUtil Version 1.0.6" shows but the main applet doesn't load. The webutil HTML template is found and looks OK in View Source but no applet. The config section has a archive_jini but it behaves as if the main jar can't be found(?) Nothing extra in the jinit-console, even at log level 5. webutil.cfg is copied to forms/server and frmwebutil.jar to forms/java.
    Suggestions appreciated,
    Nik

    Hi,
    Can you check Vitual Path of WebUtil in the config file ..\forms\server\forms.conf?
    I would like to see your files

  • I was trying to activate my CS3 and got help from chat until he said it was an installing issue. The application opens and then closes unexpectedly.

    I just got a new mac and I'm trying to download my Adobe CS3 onto it. I was able to download and then I tried to activate it. I entered the CS3 serial number and then asked for the serial number of the older version. I originally bought CS2 on disc and downloaded it onto my old mac and from there bought an upgrade to CS3. I no longer have the discs or box for CS2 and so I do not have the CS2 serial number. I contacted chat support who helped until I reached the point where I could open the application but then it would quit immediately and say "Adobe Update quit unexpectedly." Then he said it was an installing issue and turned me to the forums. Help, please?

    JohnEden I would recommend running all available uninstallers to remove the current installation.  The uninstallers are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.  Once you have ran the uninstallers then please also utilize the CC Cleaner Tool for a complete removal.  You can find details on how to utilize the CC Cleaner Tool at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

  • Error when installing issue in Content Viewer

    Hi,
    I have a strange error in my Content Viewer.
    When downloading it stalls and a message says "Could not install issue, relaunch app and download your purchase again" (my translation from swedish).
    It sometimes stalls when downloading and sometimes when installing issue.
    Anyone got a solution or having the same problem?
    Br
    Henrik

    Henrik, this can be either or. The internal Acrobat.com servers seem to have download issues once a week or so.
    The best way I think you can determine this is if the download is failing at the same point during the download. If it is, it's a problem with the folio. If it's not, then it's a temporary problems with the servers.
    If it is a problem with the folio, there's no straightforward answer -- but if you were able to download that folio recently, delete or update the articles you've added since.
    If you have no idea what's causing it, you can either start deleting articles, or try updating them first.

  • Can' t read disk label, install issues

    can' t read disk label, install issues
    i am trying to install solaris 8 on a sparc5 (256mb, 4.2gb,110mhz). i initially installed using the installation disk and it seemed successful as i was able to load the rest of the cds. something went wrong though b/c the system is stuck in a rebooting loop after it finished the last cd. so i went searching and found that i could only have a root partition of no bigger than 1gb. since i used the installation disk, i was not given an option to specify slice sizes. so now, i am trying to redo the install starting from the first disk (1 of 2) and skipping the installation disk. when i do a "boot cdrom" with the 1 of 2 disk, i get the cant read disk label or something about short entry and it will not boot. i am using actual Solaris 8 cds and not downloads. what can i do to get it to boot up from the first disk, or fix the partitioning on the disk?

    I am using the offical Solaris 8 Installation 2/02 for SPARC Platform Edition for Sun Computer Systems February 2002, Revision A

  • Windows xp itunes install issue

    I am attempting to install Itunes using Windows XP at Service Pack 3 with all the security updates installed. The instal begins and during the final process of setup, I receive the following error message and the Itunes instal backs out and stops.
    Error message, " These is a problem with this Windows Installer package. Aprogram run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor".
    I am looking for some advice after working on the Apple and Microsoft website's trying to find a solution.

    Thank You B Noir for the helping hand in reapiring my problem in loading Itunes.
    I ended up working with an Apple Service Tech who had me delete all the programs associated with the Apples Itune install. Quicktime, Apple Application Support, Apple Modile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Software Update.
    Each of the programs were un-installed with no issues until we started the uninstall of Apple Software Update, which your note indicated could be a cause for the install issue.
    Using the Windows program "Fixit" downloaded off the Microsoft website, we determined that the registry keys for this program had become corrupted. We used Fixit filtering down to an install repair module inside if Fixit to remove the damaged program from my PC's registry then Fixit uninstalled the Apple Software Update program.
    Once this was done, we were able to successfully instal Itunes using the latest Itunes install packaged found on the Apple website.
    Thanks Again for your advice.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Barbara,
    Thanks for the advice.  Unfortunately, it didn't work.  I deleted (and emptied the trash) of the Adobe folder in the Hard drive>library>application support folders, uninstalled the partial install of PSE 10 using Adobe's uninstall, turned off the antivirus software, and tried installing from a new administrative account.  Here is the error code from this most recent attempt.

    This computer has had some previous Photoshop versions migrated to it over the years (Photoshop 4.0 for OS 9, and Photoshop 7.0).  Photoshop 7.0 stopped working after I upgraded the OS from Tiger to Snow Leopard, and I no longer have the disks or serial number so that is why I'm trying install PSE 10.  Could these old versions (which I tried to delete, but did not have a specific uninstall version for) be a source of this issue?  If so, is there a way to make sure they're all gone?
    Thanks

  • Downloading and installing PSE 11 issues

    I downloaded the files from your site and have them in one file on my pc. However, it will not let me open them, saying something is missing. I have downloaded and retried several times. Please advise as to what I need to do.

    Hi,
    I'm having the same issue. And find this whole experience and support method very frustrating.
    1. Instructions are instructions but poorly designed process is no good. You are asking us to do things that are not logical, ie, click on the download of free PSE 12 and then cancel to activate a cookie, then install. This is rubbish. If you are relying on cookies or another session based method offer it in a simple to use way.
    2. Loads of people are having the same issue yet you basically tell them all to go read a blog. This is not customer service or any level of support you would expect from a retailer of your scale charging the prices you charge.
    3. After following all the options, trialling a download about 5 - 6 times. With all the possible alternatives I still have an issue.
    I know as a Moderator there is little that you can do about all of the above, but if you can provide this feedback to an Adobe rep please do so.
    As a suggestion of what you could do. Why don't you simply place a download link on the page where we have the product serial. Have a session based cookie function there and then a single installer file package Instead of having information scattered across a bunch of pages, links and blogs.

  • PSE 8 Install issues...STILL

    I have been in touch with Adobe support and I still have no answer on my is.  Here it is:
      I just bought PSE8/PRE8 as a bundle.  When I go to install the software using the wizard, it gets to the end then begins "Rolling back Installation".  Error reads that Installation was interupted and that nothing was changed on my system.  I contacted the help desk and they told me to follow the 18 steps in the support guide...I did this and nothing.  Again I contacted support...they said try one more step...I did...AND nothing.  So now I am waiting for support again wishing I could use my software that I paid a bit for!  SO...my question is....
    Does anyone know what this issue may be and how to fix it?
    Thanks for reading.  Please let me know if anyone else knows of this issue.  Thanks again.
