Trouble Installing CS4 - 32bit Win7 (Trial & Full Version)

I tried installing the full version on my laptop yesterday, and when the RIBS installer opened, it only gave me an option to install the XMP Panels CS4 or kuder - not the actual application. I thought it might be an issue with my CD, so I downloaded the trial, tried to install and the same thing happened. Even if I tried installing those two, it gave me an "Please Insert Photoshop CS4" CD error - even though I'm installing it from a download onto my desktop. What's going on? How can I fix this?
Information that might help:
- Windows-7, 32-bit computer
- Using administrator account
Please help! Need this fixed as soon as possible.

Thank you guys - it looks like it must be a permissions issue, but I still can't figure it out. I have 3 accounts set up, "jaremy", which I set up as an administrator when I initially installed, "jrich", which is what I use to connect to the network (in the users folder it has a lock on it), and "Administrator", which I never set up, and have no idea what the login is.
I did the windows install myself, so I'm not sure why I wouldn't have permissions to my own directories, but I've tried installing on both "jaremy" and "jrich", and both have the same issue. I tried running the program as an administrator with windows defender off, and it still did not work. Any other suggestions?
Mylenium: I also cannot find my local Temp directory (there's no "AppData" folder within my local user name).

  • HT4410 I have just installed Windows 7 64-bit full version Home Premium using Bootcamp and cannot get access to the internet. I installed on a Macbook Air Mid 2012 with Mountain Lion. Are there some drivers that are missing from the Windows 7

    Dear Apple. I have just installed Windows 7 64-bit full version Home Premium using Bootcamp and cannot get access to the internet. I installed on a Macbook Air Mid 2012 with Mountain Lion. Are there some drivers that are missing from the Windows 7 bootcamp install download from Apple

    It is a Total Misconception that the Support files are installed when you are installing Windows, even if the USB drive that holds them is inserted in the system when doing the Windows install.
    You must always Run the Setup.exe files from the support files or run the drivers individually once Windows has finished installing and booted to the desktop.
    Also you really need to run the Boot Camp Control Panel Applet and check for updates as not all the newest drivers for full function of all the hardware is included with the original support download. That download is basically a generic version to get the system working and without doing the updates not everything will work properly.

  • Trouble installing CS4 in Windows 7 64-bit

    Has anybody else had trouble installing CS4 into Windows 7 Pro 64-bit?  I had this suite installed in XP (32-bit) and it worked just fine, but it will not install on my new computer.  The first time I tried, it got partway in (past the serial number), and then everything locked up.  I had to restart the machine twice just to make it let go of the CD! 
    Someone on a forum suggested  copying the disks to the hard drive and installing from there, but this did not work any better, the installation simply fails immediately, and I get an error code 1605.  I tried it with the firewall off, and with anti-virus disabled, and I never leave User Account Control enabled.  What is going on?

  • Having trouble installing CS4 trial

    I'm trying to install the 30-day trial on Vista Home Premium. Everytime I run Setup.exe, it goes to Checking System Profile, then pops up with "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Atari Customer Support for assistance." I have enabled the jscript.dll and even turned UAC off, and it still won't work.

    The answer lies in why in the world would Contact Atari customer Service pop up for when you are installing a Adobe product. Call Atari.
    *lol* I guess those old Falcons and STs are hard to kill. Anyway, to the matter at hand... Did you install properly as administrator? Are there any other Adobe products on the system? If so, which ones? what did you try so far? Run the CS4 Clean Script? Uninstalled conventionally? It may also help, if you can provide the install log (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Installers).

  • Trouble installing CS4

    *I'm using 32-bit Vista
    First, photoshop cCS3 didn't run because apparently the licensing agreement had expired. Dunno how that could've happened, because I'm using the student version. I decided to install CS4 trial for now, that didn't work because I didn't have the right updates. So then I tried going to Programs & Features and entering the activation code again, but I couldn't find CS3 - there was only CS4, which I didn't even completely install.
    Now I installed the right updates, and when I try to run the instalation file it goes through the whole instalation process and at the end tells me "These files did not install: Photoshop CS4."
    I don't understand what's wrong, what should I do?

    Goto Local Disk C: > Program Files > Adobe. In there, any Adobe software ever installed will be there, weather it works or not. If you find PS CS3 in the folder called "Adobe Photoshop CS3", or "Photoshop CS3", (look for "Photoshop.exe"), try to run it. If you license problems still, i suggest contacting adobe directly through a Case.
    About CS4, what were the updates it said you needed? If you have the updates either way, if Photoshop is having a hissy fit about installing, uninstall it complelty, then try to re-install it. It should then work, and you will have CS3 and CS4.
    EDIT:
    Ooo just thought of something...if you computer belives that CS3 has an expired license, then you may find that CS4 will refuse to install because of it. I've seen this with other softwear before, as a protection system....but of course can be annoying. So the other way, is to uninstall CS3 aswell, to make sure there are no issues that end. Thats if the application licenses have been programmed that way in the first place.

  • Installed CS4 30 day trial and said my license had expired!

    Had previously a 30 day trial of CS3 Photoshop & After effects on my Mac and just installed my 30 day trial of CS4 Master collection, I bought on DVD from Adobe, and it states for all the CS4 programes my license has expired!
    How do I resolve this?
    Kevin

    Either call Adobe Customer Service or wipe your hard drive clean. :/ You should have used the Adobe Uninstaller (Applications/Utilities/Adobe) to get rid of the previous trial version.
    You might try uninstalling both versions now
    with their respective Adobe uninstallers
    , then looking for, downloading and running CS3CleanScript. It's a long shot, though.
    before CS3 you could just drag the Photoshop folder to the trash, not so with CS3 and CS4. You have to use the uninstaller.

  • Trouble installing CS4 Windows

    I'm trying to install CS4 (using Adobe install disks) on Windows XP. All seemed to install well with successful product registration but when I tried to start the applications (i.e. Illustrator or Photoshop), I received the follow error (and the app shut down):
    Specified mode could not be found. C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version Cue CS4\Client\4.0.0\Version Cue.DLL
    I tried running the install disk again and now am getting errors that the install can't continue. I'm redirected to the Adobe website to install a support software which I proceeded to do then it hung up.
    Thanks in advance for the help.

  • Trouble installing CS4 onto Intel Mac

    Good day to all, I have a problem.
    I have an Intel Imac with OD 10.4.11 and am unable to install CS4 Design Premium. I have all external devices unpluged. The progress bar only gets this far (please see below) and then stops moving for hours. Any ideas or suggestions?

    Thanks for the info. Previous attempts were all done w/o any apps running, and then in safe boot config just to waste some more time. Here's the log entry:

    The minimum system requirements listed below are recommended in order to run Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium properly and are not met:
    - 1.0 GB of RAM or more
    It is recommended that you upgrade or adjust your system to meet these minimum requirements and then restart the installer.

  • Can I download and install CS3 (NOT TRIAL - full version)?

    I have the original CDs and serial #s but no optical drive on my new laptop. I have it installed on my iMac, and it may be on my OLD laptop, which is dead. I understand you may only have Adobe products on two machines, so I would want to deactivate it from my old MacBook somehow. My new laptop is a MacBook Pro with no optical drive. I tried to put the discs in the optical drive on my iMac, but they couldn't be read for some reason and it spit them back out. I think I have a problem with the CD drive on my desktop. I was going to try to install them in the new machine over the network, but since I have no working optical drive, I can't do that.
    Would I be able to download and install my full CS3 Design Premium software if I give the serial numbers? I purchased it back in December of 2009.
    I am not interested in the trial versions, since I own this software - that is all I've seen posted as "answers" to similar questions - a link to a site with trial version downloads.
    I'm not interested in upgrading at this time, either - I just want to be able to use the software I already own, which works just fine for me.
    Thank you.

    That's right – entering a valid serial number into any Adobe trial version will always convert it to a full working release, even for old software.

  • Trouble installing Adobe Photoshop Elements trial version

  • Trouble installing cc lightroom over trial version

    I downloaded lightroom5 trial version on my MacPro desktop.  works great.  then I purchased a complete Creative Cloud license.II
    I installed everything on my laptop no problems and did not have any trial versions on it.
    I installed everything on my desktop but lightroom is still in trial mode with 23 days left.  Everything else installed fine.
    Now it is not incompatible hardware.  Trial is fine.
    The CC desktop says lightroom is up to date but it is up above in the CC window not down with installed apps.
    I have 107 photos of my grandson's birthday in the trial so, my questions are:
         Do I back up the catalog file and trash lightroom before reinstalling the entire app from CC desktop?
         Maybe there are some prefs I can delete  instead?
         how do I protect this last photo shoot?
    I assume reinstalling is best.  what does adobe look at to determine your up to date or there at all?
    thanks in advance

  • Installing CS4 on Win7

    Hi,
    I had my CS4 Design Standard installed on WinXP. Now I want to install the same product on Win7 and upgrade it later to CS6.
    Is this possible or is the Version I bought only for WinXP?
    Cheers,

    Yes, you can install it on Win 7.

  • Trouble Installing CS4 on Mac Book Pro with Lion 10.7.3

    Hello,
    I'm having trouble with this. As instructed by Adobe I'm working with the original CD to install this to my laptop. It goes
    up to installing Adobe Air, about half way through the whole installation and then stops. I have tried resetting the permissions- I'm installing in the root user account. This was what Adobe tech help had me do to successfully install Light Room 2 first and then
    an update.  The update was more compatible apparently with Lion.
    Any ideas of what is going on? I wonder if this has something to do with Lion?
    Thanks for any ideas.

    Hi,
    Based on your description you are doing it right.
    This happens to everyone, where you are skipping a step without noticing it.
    Start again from the beginning..
    Or maybe CS4 is not supported on Lion 10.7.3 >?
