Trial Download of Indesign CS 5.5 fails at less than a minute remaining

I have tried downloading the trial version of InDesign CS 5.5 on two different Macs, both eventually fail/hang when the message in the Adobe Download Assistant is "Downloading xxx MB - less than a minute".  This message  remains indefinitely.  No log file that I can find indicates any progress, and the downloaded file is *larger* than the size indicated in the "Downloading xxx mb message".
In both cases, the computers are running OS 10.6 and the destination for the download is the users Downloads directory.  In one case, the user is an administrator of the computer, in the other it is not.  In both cases there are previous licensed versions of Adobe creative suite products installed (CS5).
Please provide a solution or a direct download link.

Follow Solution 1 from the below link.

Please try the following steps:
1) Visit Adobe.com product download page http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=indesign
2) Click the "Download Now" button
Adobe Download Assistant will launch on your desktop, and after you sign-in (it does not remember the credential intentionally), you will be prompted for a location to save the product and download will start.
If you are already on an Adobe.com product trial download page (step 1), simply refresh it, and then click the "Download Now" button.

  • Netrestore 10.6.8 fails in less than a minute

    Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
    First off i have started completley from scratch with 10.6.8 and i'm using SIU.
    My goal is to have a netrestore image that i can use ARD to point x amount of computers to that network image and restore a whole lab in one move.
    my workflow in SIU is as follows
    1.define image source, this is my perfect machine (macbook hd with 10.6.8)
    2.Format disk, formats the disk regardless of what it is named and rename as "Macintosh HD"
    3.enable automated installation on volume named "Macintosh HD"
    4.create netrestore image
    My test mac can find the image on the network, boot and reformat but it won't restore the image. it fails in less than a minute. this was the same in 10.6.7 too.
    I can provide more details if needed but does anybody out there have any idea what i may be doing wrong?
    Thank you!

    My answer is probably not what you're looking for, but that hasn't stopped me yet ;-)
    I used the Apple imaging tools for years, sometimes without a hitch, sometimes successfully after searching these forums for tips becasue the tools didn't work straightforward, and sometimes with no luck. 2 or 3 years ago we hired a consultant to help out with imaging. They went right to DeployStudio. I've not touched Apple's imaging tools since.
    DeployStudion's documentation is great, there is a good firum at their web site, and I've found the process to be much more stable than any version of Apple's tools. Once it is set up and running, adding new images and workflows is a breeze, and it is easily configurable. I highly reccomend it. YMMV.

  • Mac store downloads stuck at less than a minute remaining... Forever!

    So yeah, new to Macs but I'm pretty sure I haven't done anything wrong.
    Macbook Pro late 2011 15 inch, Lion 10.7.2.
    Got my new mac back home yesterday, very excited, and, very excitedly, opened the app store to buy Logic. Paid, cool, no problem, then I try downloading. Starts off a bit slow (8 hours for 400 something MBs) then changes to days after a minute, then changes to "less than a minute remaining" and then stops downloading. Left it over night to see if it would pick up and to my joy it did, overnight it reached 260 MBs, then left it downloading while I went to work, and it didn't move another inch. Tried downloading a free app or two and the same things would happen. Would hit the dreaded "less than a minute remaining" of death and stop downloading.
    This common for macs?
    Shouldn't be a internet problem. My windows laptop still downloads speedy as ever.

    If you are referring to Logic Pro it's only a 413 MB file...  shouldn't take more than several minutes to download.
    Try this...
    Since your are new to Macs it may be a bit confusing to find files.
    Click and hold the Finder icon in the Dock (bottom of the screen on the left) then click New Finder Window.
    Now from the menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this in ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac. Try re downloading Logic.
    Note...   If you installed anti virus software or any programs such as LIttle Snitch or Speed Download, alll three can prevent files from downloading from the App Store.

  • Download stuck at less than a minute remaining

    I have purchased (and paid for) OS X Lion on the App store, and it goes to download as any other app does. Then when it gets to 3.71Gb, it stops there and waits at 'less than a minute'. It won't launch the installer or anything.
    I have installed other apps before, so I know the App store is fine. I am completely up to date with snow leopard, and no other apps are running.
    Really starting to **** me off as I want to upgrade to iCloud.

    How long does it take? I remember it can take a while.

    Try deleting the cache associated with the App Store.
    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Relaunch the App Store and try re downloading the app.
    If that didn't help, open Sysem Preferences > Security & Privacy then select the General tab.
    Select:  Mac App Store and identified developers
    If that area is greyed out, click the padlock icon to make changes. You may be prompted for your admin password.
    Then try downloading the app.

  • Downloading movies on Apple TV have become very slow lately. Previously an HD movie could be downloaded in less than a minute. I have an internet with speeds up to 30MPS. Latest generation of Apple TV and software up to date. Any suggestions.

    Recently in the last 2-3 weeks, I've noticed that downloading a movie from iTunes via Apple TV has become painfully slow. Previuosly, I could download an HD movie in less than a minute. My internet speed is 30MPS. I installed the lastest Apple TV software. Nothing else has changed. I have the latest generation Apple TV.Is anybody else having a similar problem? Appreciate any ideas.

    The limitation of approximately 200 titles has been discussed before, we can't be sure whether it will be something that gets fixed or not. I'm not really sure what your other issues are, if I use search instead of lists, I find whatever I want and am able to rent or purchase subject to those options being available for that particular title.

  • Opening second tab, no address causes download speed to drop from 160 kbs to less than 5 kbs and sits there doing nothing, does not happen with IE, why is this

    after firefox updated from 27 to 28, when i download a file, play music, watch a video, or run a speed test, normal speed is about 160 kb/s (dsl connection 1.3 Mb/s) - just opening another blank tab (not any address) or try to open another page like google search page, download speed drops to less than 5 kb/s - downloading stops, and second page does not open, why is this happening, it does not happen with internet explorer and the version of IE i have is out of date,
    history/cookies all clear automatically when close, i have disabled all add on, run malware, adware searches - show no problem, norton antivirus is up to date, i have spent hours on phone with ATT isp and connection is showing no problem - if i run a speed test it shows good, if i try to run a speed test and open second tab - speed fails and speed test will not even finish, ATT suggested I try the same thing in IE and there is no problem - so it appears to be an issue with Firefox 28

    What is the CPU load when this slowdown happens?
    Are you using a specific driver in Windows to mange the internet connection that might not get enough processor time to run properly?
    It is also possible that other (security) isn't able to do its work and takes additional CPU time.
    Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
    *http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-start-windows-in-safe-mode/
    You can try to create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem if starting Firefox in Safe Mode didn't help.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

  • Weblogic clustered server instance failed in less than 30 hours with no load/utilization

    every ten seconds with the following command:

    problem: there was no load or utlization of the weblogic server instances
    at the time of the failure. both instances had only been up for about 30
    hours when they failed. is this due to weblogic instability? i hope not.
    a max uptime of 30 hours doesn't say much for the reliability of the product
    especially since there was zero utilization...

  • "less than a minute" when migrating, transfer fails

    Migrating to a MBP running 10.7.2. from white iMac running updated Snow Leopard. Everthing is fine until it gets near the end to "less than a minute" then hangs up there and goes no further. I quit and get nothing.

    Your TimeMachine drive is not functioning.
    Use a Firewire cable and a Firewire 800 to Firewire 400 adapter if you need it and follow the steps to hook the two computers together like I outlined above. Try migration assistant that way.
    Another way is to use Carbon Copy Cloner and cloning the iMac's hard drive to the external drive, it has to be formatted GUID OS X Extended first in Disk Utility.  Then once you have the iMac clone connected to the MBP then run Migration Assistant against the clone and it works too.
    Another method is to use a external drive and transfer the files using that manually.
    Last two methods you need to format the external drive correctly

  • InDesign CS6 trial download: "Installer failed to initialize"

    Hi, I have successfully downloaded Adobe InDesign CS6, using the Download Manager Software. When I click on 'Install", a window appears with a progress bar ("Adobe Installer"), and the bar gets about 2/3 through, then I get an error message saying "We've encountered the following issues. Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem." Then a link to download Adobe Support Advisor, or button to Quit.
    So, I downloaded and ran Adobe Support Advisor. After initializing, the software tells me "no issues detected."
    - My machine meets the system reqs for InDesign CS6
    - Obviously I have tried restarting my machine and running all these steps again. Still getting the error.

    Mac os x version 10.6.8, 4gigs memory, 2.3GHz Intel Core i7 Processor, 470 Gigs of available hard drive space.
