Re: Trying to install DW CS3 on new Mac, get this message:Startup error,Required resources are missing

Hello,
I am reading your thread here and I am having problems reinstalling CS3 after I did a migration from old iMac to new iMac (which rendered the installed CS3 unusable). I have "required resources are missing" error message when trying to reinstall from purchased CD. Please suggest how to help. thanks,

Cyntlee33 the simplest option is to restore your new computer back to a clean install of Mac OS 10.7.  Then use the migration assistant again to move over only documents and settings.
Your other option, which might end up expending a lot of additional time if it fails, would be to try using the CS5 cleaner tool to attempt to remove the files which were transferred over by the migration assistant.
I would highly recommend the first option.  During my time with support some of the most difficult issues I have dealt with were from users who used some type of migration utility and then their software did not perform properly on the new computer.

    Try booting into the Safe Mode.  Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once. You can download from the Safe Mode.

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

    Hi stijill2,
    In case you are facing issues uninstalling the app's then please try manual cleanup of Adobe from your machine by following the below mentioned steps:
    1. Navigate to Applications and trash all Adobe app's and Adobe folder.
    2. Navigate to Applications/Utilities/ and trash Adobe Application Manager,Adobe Creative Cloud, Adobe Installer folder.
    3. Go to Library/Application Support and trash Adobe.
    4.Go to ~/Library/Application Support and trash Adobe.
    Try installing the CC app's and let us know if still the error persists.

  • Required resources are missing.  Can't reinstall CS3

    I had to erase my HD.  When I tried to reinstall CS# I keep getting a message "required resources are missing"
    I've tried from my DVD and from a fresh file (2.3GB ); no luck.  Please help
    I tried to confirm the uninstall, but it was no help.

    rpaitich,
    There are quite different experiences with the seeming compatibility between Yosemite and the different CS versions,
    You may wish to roll back from Yosemite to Mavericks and wait to see whether your issue will be solved and reported as such.
    Weeding out in older plugins seems to have helped some in some cases. It also seems that JAVA Runtime may be involved, for some it seems to help to roll back to an ealier version, for others to update to the newest. And at least for some, it has made a real difference to download the JAVA from Oracle rather than from Apple.
    All the above is more or less hearsay so far, with no definite final confirmation.
    In any case, there is something to be sorted out by someone.
    On the other hand, this website seems to indicate that someone has made Yosemite work with almost all CS/CC versions.

    For each version, different issues may come down to some specific and maybe inconspicuous detail(s).
    Allycs has the solution of CS3 just crashing on startup in post #10 in this thread:
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1610653
    1) Open System Preferences > Java
    2) Wait for the Java Control Panel to load
    3) Open Adobe Illustrator (while keeping the Java Control Panel window open)

    Started having trouble with iTunes so I uninstalled everything and tried to reinstall but it says ' iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.'  Well, I've uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times.  Now what?

    I figured it out.  A week ago I had downloaded a screensaver from a website I trusted and that's when my problems started. I uninstalled it but that didn't help.  So, I reinstalled it then used an uninstall softtware app that cleanns more than the control panel does. Then I used a computer cleaner to be sure everything was wiped clean.  And it worked.  I downloded iTunes for the 7th time in 2 days and finally it worked!  And I lost nothing from my account.
    Maybe this info will help others.

    When I try to install Maverick on the HD I get this message: This disc is used for Time Machine backups and then nothing happens!

    Try looking in Finder at your Macintosh HD.   Look to see if there is a backups.backupsdb folder at the root of the hard drive.  That's a folder that Time Machine makes on external hard drives to store the backups.   If you have one there, some one put it there; rename the folder or delete it.  Then try installing again.

  • Serial # not accepted when I'm trying to install LR5 on my new Mac

    I have LR 5 installed on a a PC. When I try to install LR on my new Mac my "old" serial # isn't accepted.
    Will the serial # be accepted if I uninstall LR from my old computer perhaps?
    Or will I have to buy a new license?

    Did you get this serial number from Adobe or an authorized Adobe reseller or did you get it from Amazon or somewhere else where the origin is not clear?  I ask this because sometimes serial numbers can be stolen and Adobe doesn't know for a while, but eventually they black-list them in newer versions of the software. 
    Is this a situation where you purchased an upgrade and aren't entering the previous version's serial number?
    Is the bad serial number indicated immediately upon typing the last digit with a red X instead of a green checkmark next to where the serial number is entered, or is the serial number indicated as bad after you log into Adobe during the install and registration process?
    Did this serial number come from a download or from a box?  Maybe one of these types of purchases only allows activating on a single platform.  Maybe you'll need to chat with Adobe about it, via the Chat links on their support pages.
