Setup.app freezes when trying to install Creative Suite 4

HI, I can't seem to get to the install window where you pick which programs to install. I click the setup.app file and it freezes seconds later. It doesn't crash and no error messages pop up. The only thing i can do is force quit and try again. All other programs are closed.
I have 10.4.11 Tiger on my MacBook and the system meets the minimum requirements
I've tried:
-Creative Suite Cleanup (uninstalled flash plugins etc)
-Adobe Support Advisor (it found no errors on the disc)
-ran Disk Utility to repair permissions
-restarting computer
People i've talked to think it is a font issue, but when i ran the support advisor no errors came up. I unlocked disabled fonts.
Also found this in console.log: executing /Volumes/Adobe CS4 Design Premium Disc 1/Adobe CS4 Design Premium/Setup.app/Contents/MacOS/Setup
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  Invalid path passed to FileSystemPath constructor.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

  • Error (-1) when trying to install creative suite 5 design premium

    I am trying to install on new desktop, and get error(-1) code. I did have this on old laptop, but it quit working. Please help

    Amyjoan50 I am sorry but I don't have any experience with attempting to run Creative Suite 5 in a virtual box.  You will want to make sure that the applications have access to the necessary video drivers.  This can often be an issue when trying to run a virtual OS.
    You may also want to check with the Ubuntu or Virtual Box community to see if others have had success trying to install using Virtual Box.

  • Serial number is invalid when trying to install Creative Suite 6 (Student/Teacher Edition) on my new mac?

    I have deactivated CS6 on my old laptop, but every time I try to enter the serial number to re-activate it tells me that it is invalid. Is there a period of time that I have to wait before it becomes able to be activated again? It's been about 24 hours. Or could the problem be that it was previously installed on a PC, but now I have upgraded to a mac? Is there any way to fix this? Please help! Thank you!

    Normally a PC serial number is not valid for a Mac version.  I don't know if the following holds for Student/Teacher editions though there should be something similar...
    Change product platform or language
    You can swap languages/platforms for a latest version product if you follow the instructions at the following link:

  • Trouble trying to install Creative Suite Standard Design.

    Trouble trying to install Creative Suite Standard Design 6. It stalls at around 20% when installing "Adobe Help" component. Install time increases but does not go past 20%. Tried several times with same result. I am running Windows 8.1. regards Thomas

    while installing, when installation starts to stall, open your running processes and terminate the adobe help process.  installation should then continue.

  • Trying to install Creative Suite 2 premium on my MAcBook Pro. its telling me its not supported

    Trying to install Creative Suite 2 premium on my MAcBook Pro. its telling me its not supported

    It means what it says. It's simply old software that doesn't run on contemporary Macs. You need to come up with something else like buying a current version or joining Creative Cloud.

  • System freeze when trying to install 10.2 (Jaguar) on a biege G3

    I'm trying to install 10.2 on a partition on my G3 hard drive. The machine specs are:
    400Mhz G3
    384 Meg RAM
    OS9.2.2
    ROM Id $77D.45F2
    When I try to restart with the install CD, the machine freezes completely. The only way I've been able to recover is by removing the backup battery for about 45 minutes. Then the machine will restart in 9.2.
    What am I missing? I'm following the 'read me' directions and the on-screen prompts.
    Thanks
    G3   Mac OS 9.2.x   Desktops and powerbooks

    Andrew -
    Guess I wasn't too clear as to what is happening.
    But first, yes I am using a perfectly legal (purchased) copy of Jaguar. And I checked the update criteria - since I don't have an Apple SCSI card, there are no updates for a G3.
    Now, as to what happens. When I insert disk 1 and click "install" I get a message that the computer will be restarted and the installation will begin. The screen goes blank. And nothing happens! No restart, no CD activity - nothing. And I can't restart into OS9!
    The machine is dead until I remove the backup battery for a while. Then I can restart in OS9, and everything works.
    Hope this clears up what my problem is.

  • Power Mac G5, freezes when trying to install operating system

    Hello,
    I have a PowerMac G5 that I think that the hard drive is bad. It is a SATA 160 GB Drive. I got a new drive and tried to install the Operating System (10.3 black CD) and it won't boot just flashing question mark.
    I have a Grey DVD (Power Mac G5) and when I try to boot it gets to the apple screen then freezes with lines across the screen.
    I have an apple hardware test V2.5 and it ran the quick test and said hard drive was loaded. I ran it before and the old drive did not even appear.
