Trial version will not run past splash screen

I hope someone can help please!
I downloaded the trial of dreamweaver 8 yesterday & I
installed it & ran just fine. Today it will not run past the
splash screen. It comes up & asks if I want to buy or carry on
the trial - I pick trial, and the dreamweaver 8 splash screen comes
up, and then nothing happens. The program doesn't start. I
uninstalled it & reinstalled. I re-booted etc. - still no go.
The other trial I downloaded (firestarter) works just fine still.
I am running windows XP media center edition service pack 2.
Can anyone help please?

Has it ever run?

Trial Version Will Not Run on my Mac

I have been trying to use the trial of Lightroom 5 to see if I will convert from iPhoto/Aperture to Photoshop/Lightroom. I belong to a digital photography club and we are evaluating "endorsing" a single platform so we can provide education and training for our members. My trial version of Lightroom appears to download and install properly (Mac OS) but when I go to open it, I get an error message - "an error occurred while changing modules" and the screen remains at the shell of LR, showing the module list, the photo tray, and a big gray blob in the middle where everything else should display. I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice - once when I hit "enter" after the error message appeared, the app started to load a catalog - I let it run overnight, since my iPhoto folder contains over 20.000 photos and I shoot raw much of the time. The next morning, the pop up window stll said it was establishing a catalog and when I hit enter, that disappeared. I have uninstalled LR, since it is not functional. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Satellite A300 will not get past splash screen

Hi All
got an issue with an A300 laptop about 2-2.5 years old. I have just installed windows 7 prof and it was working fine for about 3 days and then suddenly it stopped booting up.
It gets to the toshiba splash screen and then reboots. it does not even try to boot into windows. you can go into the bios and make changes etc. you cannot press f8 to load into safe mode it does not even get that far.
You can press f12 and get the boot menu up and try to boot from CD but this again does not work and it just reboots again
I'm not sure how else to troubleshoot it. I dont think its a motherboard problem as you can get into the bios.
It could be a HDD problem but then i thought it would have gave you a warning message of some kind ( no boot device available ) and you can see the HDD in bios and would have thought it would have at least booted to CD.
The only things i can think of are RAM problem HDD problem or Motherboard problem.
I think installing win 7 3days ago is just a huge coincidence?
Any help would be great. Thanks

Hi hitenkacha,
> tired to boot from a windows 7 disk and this does not work
In this case it seems to be a hardware malfunction because a Microsoft Windows disk should also work properly.
> i can try and flash the bios but im not sure how i can do that
This is only possible on Windows because its a Windows based update. Furthermore BIOS update will not help you if the hardware is defective.
> is my theory correct that if you can get into the bios then thats a sign that the Motherboard is ok?
Thats hard to say because for going into BIOS you dont need much performance.
I would recommend contacting an authorized service provider and let the guys check the hardware of your computer. Theoretically it could be everything so a professional diagnostic is recommendable in this case.
Good luck! :)

Premiere 10 trial version will not run.

My first attempt when I got to the welcome screen I receive the message "incompatable display driver detected".& was able to continue after clicking ok with a new project which simply shut down after loading media files with no error message.
Through Device Manager I uninstalled the Intel display driver & rebooted. Then reinstalled using the link http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect the same display driver, version 6.14.10.4396 which from Intel is the latest driver. Still no success and tried uninstaling & reinstalling a second time.
Elements 10 now gives the same error message " incompatable display driver detected". shortly after clicking OK error message "premiere has encountered an error and must shut down".
Any suggestions.
Thanks,
Gary

these are the specs, it is not a new computer. The display driver date I have added from device manager.
Thank you,
Gary

Dell 1750 Windows 7 Will Not Load Past Splash Screen.

I have a dell 1750 laptop that I just replaced the hard drive with a new exact same hard drive that was in there I went to reinstall windows from the recovery disk and it never gets past the 7 logo I never even get to the option of installing the OS. I
tried a Vista Disk does the same thing. I tried an XP disk and does the same thing. I did a bios update and put the hard drive in compatibility mode same issue on all 3 Operating Systems. I ran the dell diagnostic that come with the computer and everything
tests fine. I tried to load all 3 OS off a jump drive and same issue. I ran hardware diagnostics off the Ultimate Boot Disk all hardware comes back fine. Can someone please help me with this? Thanks.

Hi,
For your situation, I would like to confirm the following questions:
In my understanding, you replace the hard drive, so you must perform the clean install, right?
Do you have chance to format the disk?
You may need double check if you set the CD boot as the first priority in boot sequence.

Intel iMac will not boot past gray screen

Intel iMac will not boot past gray screen
my system:
new (month old) 24" intel imac, 2.8 ghz, 4 gb ram.
running: leopard (upgraded from tiger, which was pre-installed at purchase), installed 10.5.1 update right before this huge problem occurred.
install discs on-hand: two-disc tiget set, single leopard upgrade disc.
what led to this:
i wanted to install windows using bootcamp on a 50 gb partition.
at this point i was running leopard 10.5
i followed all bootcamp instructions, printing out the guide, as well. once i got into the windows setup, i was prompted to choose a partition to install windows. unlike the bootcamp guide, which showed three partitions, one clearly labeled "bootcamp", i saw only one partition. not wanting to risk writing over my mac partition, i quit the setup and rebooted the mac os. after some googling around, i looked for firmware updates (didn't need any), and then software updates. i decided to try updating to 10.5.1.
i then ran through boot camp again, deleting my previous windows partition, creating a new one, and moving forward as before. once again, i was only shown one partition to choose from in the windows setup. i exited the setup again to reboot through the mac os, but this time, i was only given a blank gray screen.
here's what i have tried so far:
booting from a CD, holding down the C or D keys: no response (in fact, i have to restart the computer holding down the mouse button to be able to eject the CD)
booting with option key held down: gray screen
booting with option key held down with external bootable firewire drive attached: the firewire drive appears as a boot icon, and i can click on it within a five second window, but then the screen freezes after that time period, and nothing changes
booting into target mode while attached to another mac: gray screen (no firewire icon, and drive never shows up on other mac)
resetting NVRAM: i'm able to hear the boot chimes, but no difference in performance. gray screen every time
Safe boot: nothing but a gray screen
Verbose mode: gray screen
Single user mode: gray screen
Single user mode with firewire drive attached: occasionally (not every time), i am able to get the white on black terminal to show up. from here, i'm able to run fsck, but it appears to only be checking the firewire drive. i have tried several times to boot from here, and once it took me to a blue screen with movable arrow cursor, but it never went beyond this.
is there anything else left to try before taking it to apple?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Casey Burns

I'd call Apple support at this point. You'll need
to put this issue on the record.
Call U.S. iPod and Mac technical support: 1-800-APL-CARE (1-800-275-2273)
The wait may be long for an agent to come on the line
so expect that and have some other stuff to do in the meantime.
If you have the applecare protection plan, I'd ask about "onsite"
service.
I like your work ! Good luck !

Trial version will not accept seriel number

I was informed today in chat with online help. I wanted to download an update for my Acrobat 8 Proff, and was told/informed to order Adobe Creative Suite 5.5.in Danish.
I have ordered, payed, I have got a seriel number by mail (today), and the person informed me to follow a link from chat for a trial version to download.. Now I have downloadet, and i have to choose to fill in the seriel number og choose the trial version. The trial version is not in Danish. When I fill in the seriel number, I get the message, that the number do not fit.
Please help, I have to get the program to work to day!

Hi Vikrant Rai!
It is CS 5.5. Ordered and payed for to day.
I think, I was misinformed by your colleges. Because in the chat I was informed to order the program, pay, and then I got a link in the chatroom for downloading a trialversion. Så I downloaded the trialversion, wich is in English, but I ordered a Danish version.
my order number is AD002920900, my seriel number is xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
I´m afraid, that you will tell me to uninstall (it took several hours to download) the trialversion, and then download the product, I have paid for.

10.5.8 Both hard drives OK, tested - will not boot past startup screen

Okay, I have an early 2008 MacPro, and everything has been running fine, but I was trying to search for something in Finder, and it wouldn't show up, so I checked my other hard drive's permission options - it displayed "Custom" for all users, when I know I had them all set to "Read & Write" previously, so i changed my main user's (on my newer HD on 10.5.8) permission to Read & Write on the original HD with 10.6.8, so I could search its contents, then these error messages poppped up, everytime i hit OK, a new one popped up immediately in its place, with some "Apple AUD" OR "HD" messages (can't remember the exact messsages), so I restarted my computer and now I cannot get past the apple logo screen.
- Attempted selecting both hard drives as startup discs and still hangs at the white apple logo screen.
- I tried booting into Safe Mode and it loads the status bar, and when it's done loading, it simply goes back to the spinning gear.
- Tried booting from my 10.5.8 installation disc and it works, both of my HD's tested "OK" when I verified them.
- Tried resetting PRAM, and even reset SMC, and the problem persists.
One last note: the original HD that came with my Mac Pro, which has 10.6.8 on it as of last year, has a tiny lock icon on the left of the little hard drive graphic.
I'm stressed because I use LOGIC a lot, and I have all of my music projects on these hard drives, and over a million files between both of them. I'd pull my hair out, if I hadn't just shaved my head for summer
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Your hard drives may be OK, but the installed systems are not. You need to reinstall OS X on your startup volume. Doing this with Leopard requires your Leopard DVD:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

Will not boot past blue screen

The present status is that my ibook g4 will no boot past the spinning wheel screen which hangs for a few minutes and then goes to the "Mac OS X" screen with the progress bar.
My first goal is to back up all of the data. I have a second IMac. Plus, I just purchased an external 500 gig hard drive just prior to when the error started. FYI the error started when I was going through the install process of the backup program supplied with the external hard drive. The program just asked me to restart the computer and that is where we are now.
The second goal of course is to fix the start-up issue. I have tried a number of the suggestions in previous posts including the following the install disk utilities to repair the disk.

I am having the exact same problem. I was just surfing the Internet this weekend and it completely froze and now it won't boot up. I no longer get a grey screen, at boot up, it goes from black to blue and then it hangs at the blue screen.
I have a TimeMachine and a Retrospect back up of my data but I can't boot to the Leopard Install CD which would let me restore my data.
I have tried just about everything, including booting in firewire target disk mode and connected to my old clamshell iBook G3. I was able to access my files, and I even reinstalled Tiger (couldn't use Leopard because it's not compatible with the G3). So there is a fresh copy of 10.4 running on my iBook G4 but it still will not boot up on its own.
No idea what to do at this point, but I would suggest not reformatting as it really didn't seem to help.

Filemaker Pro 6 trial version will not install on iBook

iBook G4 running OS 10.4 will not install the Filemaker Pro 6 trial version. I am attempting to use it to update files from version 3. I downloaded the trial version from their site, and attempted to open it (it is a .sit file) and it says it cannot open the file.
The filemaker site is useless, and I find it impossible to find out how to activate my sign in ID to ask a simple question and they do not have any answers that I can find.
The version 3 was on my G3 PPC OS 9 laptop. Those files I will copy to the iBook G4 and supposedly I can update them using version 6.
Any ideas on opening this .sit file?
J

OS9 can handle archive file format .sit
OSX uses only .dmg file format
You have to search the web for a (trial or free) version of Stuffit Expander 2010 for Mac if you want to open the file using OSX 10.4

I have Photoshop Elements 12 and want to try version 13 before I buy. However, when I tried to download the trial version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 13, I was informed that it isa not available on Windows XP. Does this mean that if I buy the full version, it will not work on Windows XP?

Yes, if the system requirements do not include XP then an XP machine will not be able to use it.
