Remote disc installation of CS3 fails on disc 2 of 2

I'm using a Mac Book Pro to install Adobe Creative Suite 3 - Web Premium, onto my Macbook Air, using the remote disc feature in Mac OSX.
The first installation disc (applications) installs and then it asks for the second disc (content) to be loaded - I insert the disc and wait a few seconds before clicking OK to continue but the message won’t go away.
Eventually I have to press Cancel and the installation fails. Tried this a few times now and I need to know if this is an Adobe or Mac OSX issue. Would be nice if Adobe could give me a direct download link for the software but they don't appear to support previous versions of CS.

In case you are able to copy contents of disc 2 to your local drive, then try performing a silent install. Or just create a local copy of installer (following Step1 and Step2) and run Setup from there.

Installation of Portal fails with Disc space error

Hello,
I want to install EP but during setup I get this error:
Check for free disc space in tmp and usr directories for at least 600MG.
So first, what means MG, should this be MB?
On our root filesystem, which includes both directories, I have 25GB space free!!!
Can anyone help me? Regards Manfred

Hi all,
now I'm back to this topic and it seems that Installing Enterprise Portal is a way with some barriers.
-Firstly it seems "600MG" is only wrongly written from SAPINST.
- One Question to Daniel: "the page size of the datavolume", how can this be checked and changed.
- I have verified our free disc space and of course, there's enough.
- I checked the Code of the Analyzer Job and found what's wrong. Inside this, there happens an <i>execution of an Unix command "df -k" for both directories and examining the free space with an "Unix-awk" on that result</i>. But in our case, where we use Logical Volume Groups, we get an empty result, because the displayed Column for the free space is on the next line.<b>I renamed df to d_f and have written a small, new df-script "/bin/d_f -Pl $1 $2" and then the SAP-Installer continues</b> !!!
- Next failure occured during Deploying DQE (especially to com.sapportals.dqe.beans we get a ClassNotFoundException for com.metamatrix.platform.service.api.exception.ServiceException), but after restarting the J2EE-Engine and restarting SapInst it continues.
- Next Error, now blocking:
Info: Initial deployment: Selected development component 'com.sapportals.portaladmin.defaultwizards'/'sap.com'/'SAP AG'/'609.20041012204607.0000' will be deployed.

Has anyone an Idea?

Can't update after installation CS5 to new hard disc, Help?

I installed CS5 Design Premium to my new hard disc, installation was successful. However, the update failed. The feedback of failure: "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later." When I press customer care of the feedback, it directs me to a web saying: "Error "This serical number is not for a qualifying product..." when installing an upgrade or upsell"
So, I seek help from on-line chat and I was asked to seek help from Forum after got my serial number.
Please help.

"Error "This serical number is not for a qualifying product..." when installing an upgrade or upsell"
Means what it says.
You have entered an upgrade serial number for CS5 so the installer wants you to enter either a CS2 or CS3 or CS4 serial number to verify that you're eligible to use the CS5 upgrade serial number.
Have you got a CS2 or CS3 or CS4 serial number?

Does anyone have a disc / installation file of Adobe CS4 and may make it available / sell?

Does anyone have a disc / installation file of Adobe Photoshop CS4 and may make it available or sell? I bought a group license in 2009, I've got serial number and certificate but unfortunately I've lost the cd. Now I have to re-install the application. Adobe does not support this version any longer and does not provide download file or CD of CS4. Could you help me?

I am trying to install final cut studio on my computer. I get to where it asks me to insert audio disc 2 and it fails.

I am trying to install final cut studio on my computer. I get to where it asks me to insert audio disc 2 and it fails.How do I continue to install?

What I've done to get around the problem of quircky DVD readers is to create a disk image of each of the installation discs and store them on an external firewire drive. When I need to install/reinstall, I open the images and put them all on my desktop then launch the installer from disk 1. Since all the disks are available, the installation happens without any intervention from me and is done within 30-45 minutes. (your time may vary depending upon computer variables)

Remote Disc Can't recognize Blank disc, but it does recognize other discs. I am trying to burn something from my itunes on my mac mini to a blank disc on my windows computer. What could be wrong?

Remote Disc Can't recognize Blank disc, but it does recognize other discs. I am trying to burn something from my itunes on my mac mini to a blank disc on my windows computer. What could be wrong?
I can see other discs such as music and stuff so I know I have installed it correctly but how come I can't see the blank disc that I need to burn?

You can't burn discs remotely, you can only read data discs remotely (i.e. you cannot play movie DVDs either).
Either copy the files to the remote computer or get an external drive.

BlackBerry Desktop Software installs but then fails to open

Purchased BlackBerry today.
BlackBerry Desktop Software installs from distribution disc but then fails to open. Can see it in Windows Task Manager>Processes, as follows:
Windows Task Manager>Processes
Image Name: DesktopMge.exe CPU: 00 Mem Usage: 7,764 K

Not listed!
I UNISTALLED previous installation of BlackBerry Desktop Software, including user settings.
Downloaded and installed the installation file for BlackBerry Desktop Software version 4.7, “470_b050_english.exe”, but with same result. Uninstalled it, too.
As suggest elsewhere in this forum, I made directory as follows: C:\INSTALL\Blackberry
Then extracted the downloaded installation file for BlackBerry Desktop Software version 4.7, “470_b050_english.exe”, into it.
Then started installation by clicking on “BlackBerrySetup.exe”.
However, the result is the same, as described above. BlackBerry Desktop Software installs but then fails to open.
Any help would be appreciated. I would like to make this software work.
Is there alternative software available?

Enabling Installation of CS3 and CS4 products that will not install on Windows 7 64Bit.

Adobe installers are not known for their helpful or forgiving ways & I have more than once had to reinstall Windows when installation of CS3 and CS4 products has failed with patently inscrutable errors.
The background to the current issue that I was attempting to install PS CS4 on a W7 system which already had CS CS3 installed. The CS4 installer threw up inscrutable messages indicating that the installation could not proceed and to contact Adobe (they are joking right ? Their phone & web support is notoriously UN-helpful).
After reading through threads suggesting that I uninstall CS3, apply CS3 and CS4 cleaning scripts I was in exactly same position I have found myself in on least 2 occasions with WinXP. By this time I couldn't event get CS CS3 to reinstall!
Then I decided to review the event log and found a number of installer events thrown up by the Adobe installers resembling "Error 1402. Could not open key: UNKNOWN\Components\xxxxxxxx".
I tracked down this very helpful solution which allowed me to change the registry permissions on the parent key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\ Components and propagate the new permissions down to the child keys.
http://www.okino.com/conv/changing_windows_registry_permissions.htm.
My advice is to follow instructions for "A More All-Encompassing Solution" and propagate the permissions right down to all the child keys as I could see a number of separate adobe installer errors in the event log. Also note the instruction to change the Owner from 'System' to 'Administrators' in Advanced settings. This is necessary in order for the Permissions change to be accepted and replace all the child object permissions.
As with most registry changes good advice to backup your registry hive first (although I didn't; by this time I was already expecting to have to reinstall Windows) and restart your system after making the registry changes before attempting to install / reinstall CS3 or CS4 products.
Hope this solution works as well for others as it did for me as the Adobe support on this issue has been next to useless.
[P.S. Q: Did you hear the joke about the guy who worked on product installation at Adobe rocking up at job interview with 'Adobe Installation Project Team' on his Resume? A: That that is the joke! If you wanted another job in installation development you would hardly admit to experience at Adobe ;)]

We don’t want people messing with the registry when they don’t need.
My apologies John I didn't realize that I was addressing the official custodian of Photoshop.
Incidentally my advice is intended for others in a similar situation who find themselves stalled during installation and otherwise contemplating a re-installation of Windows. I believe this would be obvious to most forum participants who had actually read my original post.
