Required resources are missing

install crashes with error msg "required resources are missing" when using original CS3 DVD being reinstalled on new iMac OSX 10.9. Could it be that I have a problem with CS3 version that was automatically migrated from older machine? Reinstalled LR5 and it worked. Photoshop and ID worked without reinstall. Migrated CS3 dreamweaver gives error 65016 when launched. Guess I really only need DW. Thanks.

Rhuel you can download the Creative Suite 3 installation files at http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs3-product-downloads.html. Please make sure to download the installation files applicable for the softare title or suite which you purchased.
If you continue to face difficulties then please run any available Adobe uninstaller available in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. You will want to follow this by running the CC Cleaner Tool. Details regarding the use of the CC Cleaner Tool can be found 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.
In general it is recommended to install Adobe software on the new computer as opposed to migrating/copying the applications from one computer to another.

Startup error required resources are missing

Heyelp!! I purchased CS 5.5 for my new mac running OSX 10.7.3 installed CS5.5 and it is wonderful. Problem is I prefer Dreamweaver 3 because of the frames thing, so, I thought I would reinstall CS3 and just add Dreamweaver 3, problem is when I do it reads Startup Error, required resources are missing, so, I decided to call Adobe. The response was "we no longer provide support for 3, if you cannot find a solution on the forum there is nothing you can do." Well, $1300 doesn't get you much these days, so Dear Forum readers, any possibility of a leg up here? Thankyou!!

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)

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.

See the advice given in the user tip:Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for a very workable approach.

TS1717 I tried to open iTunes but a box pops up. In it is written "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." I have done so a number of times but nothing is working. How can I fix this problem?

iTunes will not open because a dialog box pops up with "Itunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.". I have done so a few times to no avail. Any solutions for this problem?

No you will not lose your content reinstalling iTunes.
Do this:
1: Download and run the Registry Cleaner of the free Ccleaner.
http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard
2: Next follow this Apple document to un-install iTunes

ITunes 10.6.1.7: "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." ?

Fakt:
iTunes 10.6.1.7 Fehlermeldung: "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
Jeder Versuch iTunes zu starten war bisher vergeblich: unter anderem auch das Vorgehen nach Artikel HT1925 der knowledge base.
Frage:
Windows XP Neuinstallation und/oder Installation einer älteren iTunes-Version als letzter Ausweg?

Antwort und Lösung eine Woche später:
Deinstallation und Neuinstallation von iTunes 10.6.1.7 produziert dieselbe Fehlermeldung.
Es hilft nur eine Reparatur von iTunes unter Systemsteuerung / Software. Allerdings muss hier Windows XP mit Hilfe von Ausführen / msconfig im benutzerdefinierten Modus erneut gestartet werden - ohne APSDaemon, Avira und Skype zu laden!
Die Fehlermeldung unterblieb, die Reparatur schritt voran, meldete Erfolg und benannte eine wohl defekte Datenenbank unter C:\Documents and Settings\MyAccountName\My Documents\My Music\iTunes um in:

ITunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing.....

"iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
Is the error message I receive when trying to launch iTunes or updating my iPod.
I have tried uninstalling both iTunes and qtime, restarting, installing with the iTunes75Setup.exe found on the iTunes download page from apple.com.
To help narrow the issue, during install/uninstall/repair this error also occurs as it is "Registering iTunes automation server"
any suggestion on how to resolve this issue would be great

First uninstall Quicktime 7.3 only in control panel. Then download Quicktime 7.2 from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/quicktimeforwindows.html. Hopefully it works for you because it worked for mine.

Can't create a recovery drive: "Some required files are missing"

Hi guys,
Didn't have much luck in MS forums, maybe somebody here knows?
Whenever I try to create a recovery drive I find that "We can't create a recovery drive on this PC. Some required files are missing. To troubleshoot problems when your PC can't start, use your Windows installation disc or media."
Uh?
Is a fresh Windows 8 x64 (RTM) installation. Only thing that I can think of is it has UEFI and Secure Boot enabled.
If I helped you, please give me some kudos! ^^

Hey there dann,
What version of Windows 8 are you using? It appears you may need to the Window 8 disc to be able to create the recovery drive because it needs files that are not on your system. I found those part numbers for the Windows 8 recovery media for you.
04T7196 - Win 8 64 Bit US
04T7223 - Win 8 Pro 64 Bit US
Additional part numbers can be found here for all system parts and recovery media for you the Twist (s230u). If you contact service back they should be able to get the media sent to you. Good Luck.

ITunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. How

I have tried the "repair" option to fix my "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing error message." No luck. I have rebooted. No luck. I am afraid to reinstall iTunes. I have already lost my music once when I fried my computer. I don't want to have to purchase my music AGAIN. Is this really the only way to fix this? Do I have to uninstall before I re-install?

There are a few ways to fix this. For me, going to add/remove programs and then clicking on itunes, CHANGE, then REPAIR worked. I was also getting an issue that after a few days or a reboot, it would kill itself again..
Others have to completely uninstall itunes and quicktime, erase their program files directories, then reinstall quicktiem first then itunes.
Others have to uninstall itunes, go to internet explorer and clear the recent downloads and the cache, then close ie, redownload, and then install itunes.
Good luck!

ITunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please re

When I try to open iTunes, it stalls for a few seconds and than a message pops up saying "iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." I have tried both reinstalling and repairing iTunes via putting in the disk that came with my iPOd but neither have helped. Please help.

I also have the same problem!!! How did you fix it?

"iTunes cannot run because some of it required files are missing."

I first plugged in my iTouch to update and got an error message. Close iTunes and tried to re-open and got that error message: "iTunes cannot run because some of it required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." Obviously tried uninstalling and reinstalling and repairing. Also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Quicktime by itself no luck. Not sure what happened, hopefully this can be fixed quick.
Thanks,
Colby

Close iTunes and tried to re-open and got that error message: "iTunes cannot run because some of it required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
I don't like that one on modern versions of iTunes. If files *really were* missing, the modern versions would be much more likely to attempt to do a repair install of themselves when you went to launch them.
We'd better check for malware. (I've seen this crop up for at least one chap in the context of a Backdoor.Bot infection.)
Download and install the free version of Malwarebytes. Update your Malwarebytes definitions and then run a full scan.

Does Malwarebytes pick up any infections? If so, what does it call the infections?

Itunes cannot run because some of the required files are missing?

This morning when I turned on my computer my itunes was suddenly not working. When I double click the desktop icon to open it up, I get an error message that reads:
iTunes cannot run because some of the required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes.
I searched the FAQ archive and still cannot find an answer to my problem.
THe last part of the error message says to reinstall itunes, but I cannot even get the corrupt version off. Is there anyway to save the music I have on here? Another user and I have separate iTUnes music, so a great deal of music will be lost, including things recently purchased.

Thank you so very much. I don't know why I didn't think of that but it is up and running fine now

"iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing." Help!!
Hello everyone, I have looked throughout this forum but couldn’t find anything similar so I am posting this in the hope of someone helping me out.
I have encountered some problems with iTunes (most recent edition) after doing a Dell update which seems to have knocked something out with iTunes.
Whenever I hit the iTunes icon it refuses to run and iTunes displays the following message:-
"iTunes cannot run because some of its required files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes."
I don’t want to reinstall itunes from fresh as this will mean losing all the records and playlists that I have spent the last 3 years using.
I first want to try by getting my old one back by any means neccessary.
Like I said this problem first happened after a standard Dell update.
I do have the option of doing a restore with the Dell or using Windows Vista restore itself but I fear I do not have enough disk space.
On the Dell update I can restore to settings of a previous date which might bring iTunes back but when attempt to do
that I keep getting the following message,
"Not enough free disk space to back up"
Around this time I am given a lists of what will be backed up and this readsas follows:-
Pics 2.87gb
Music 71.72gb
Videos 330.57mb
Documents 219.11mb
Email etc 203.64mb
How do I free up disk space to do the back up? An external hard drive?? If I baIs there anyway of getting a previous version of iTunes back?
My drive information is as follows:-
C Drive: Very little room - red warning - 5.67gb of 138gb
D Drive: 6.34gb of 9.99 free
Do I have too much music?
Ideally don't want to reinstall itunes as is a ball ache, and it has all the playlists etc so if there is
a way of restoring and getting back iTunes either via restoring system to the prior date when iTunes was ok.
C drive is really full now. How can I clean this up and make more room? Do I need to add memory? Are all the songs
causing the problem? What advise can you give me? Please help.
Thanks!

Nodders:
I've recently had exactly the same message as you, after iTunes updated to 10.1.1.4. First of all, I checked the *My Music* folder to make sure it was still there - it was. (I do have a back up of that folder anyway!)
I then chose the re-install iTunes option and a pop-up box asked if I wanted to uninstall iTunes or repair it. I (obviously) chose repair and I'm pretty sure what happened was that the install process simply re-installed a damaged (or missing) file. It far too quick to be a fresh install. My library was intact.
So my advice(for what it's worth) is take the re-install option and then repair option. I can't guarantee anything, but ...
By the way, after I experienced a recent hard drive failure, I decided to invest in a 1TB external drive to back up my iTunes library and personal files because it's a much easier way of backing up than my previous method. Luckily, I only lost a small recent part of my library, but it taught me a lesson. Back up regurlarly, using a larger hard drive than you are using on your computer (which allows you to keep the most recent and +next most recent+ back-ups, and don't rely on Windows to do the backing up. Find a suitable backup piece of software. (My hard drive came with s/w built in.)
