Trying to install CS6 but when I click to install it says Adobe Installer is already running.

HI,
I'm trying to install Adobe CS6 Master Collection but when I click to install it says Adobe Installer is already running when in fact it is not.  I double checked my Force Quit window and my Activity monitor it is not running. What do I do?
Here is a screen shot to show you the error message.

I'm not really  a Mac expert, we might need some Mac experts to chime in here.
It probably is a background process and not an application. If anything, I think you'll find it in the Activity Monitor.
If that does not help, you could also try the following:
1. Reboot and retry install ( you've probably done this already)
2. Boot in safe mode and then try installing.

  • I updated to Mavericks and a bunch of my info deleted.  I tried opening a previous iDVD I made, but when I click on it, it says to look for themes.  How do I get my movie to work?  Thanks.

    I updated to Mavericks and a bunch of my info deleted.  I tried opening a previous iDVD I made, but when I click on it, it says to look for themes.  How do I get my movie to work?  Thanks.

    Did you do an erase and install of Mavericks?  If not look in the HD/Library/Application Support folder for an iDVD folder.  There should be a Themes folder in it. If it's not there look in your Home/Library/Applications Suport folder for the iDVD folder.
    NOTE: In Mavericks, 10.9,  the Home Library is invisible so go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring up this window:
    Select Show Library Folder.  Now you can check to see if the iDVD folder in there.
    If you find the iDVD folder launch iDVD, go to its Advanced preference pane and point iDVD to the Themes folder:
    If you can't find the Themes folder you'll need to reinstall iDVD from the source you installed it from originally, i.e. the disks that came with your Mac or an iLife 09 or 11 disk.

  • I downloaded adobe cc and am trying to download ps, but when I click on the download tab nothing happens??

    I downloaded adobe cc and am trying to download ps, but when I click on the download tab nothing happens??

    Open up the Adobe CC desktop application.  There should be an Install or Try button, not a Download button, next to PS in the CC desktop app list.
    It sounds like you’re using a browser with https://creative.adobe.com/products  That page should work, too, but clicking the blue Download button is going to try to start up a program locally on your computer and you may have answered Disallow at some point in the past or you may have some internet security program that blocks such things so nothing is starting up.

  • I have installed Firefox but when I click on the icon, nothing happens.

    I have just downloaded and installed firefox, but when I click on the icon nothing happens.

    In case you haven't solved this by now...
    Sometimes your security software will block new programs from accessing the internet. Are you getting any alerts along those lines?
    Sometimes Firefox will stall during startup and never display its window. In that case, you may need to manually "kill" the firefox.exe process using the Windows Task Manager before trying to start Firefox again.
    You can display the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Esc. Windows 8.1 has a different display than Windows 7, so I have to go by memory. If you see a tab named Applications, check that one first. Then check Processes, and finally check Details. If you find Firefox or firefox.exe on any of those tabs, select it and End Process (or other action to shut it down).
    After you are done with the Task Manager, try starting Firefox up again.

    I'm afraid you're out of luck.  If it says incomplete you won't be able to access the backup.

  • Itunes says it has available updates but when I click download updates, it says no available update.

    Itunes says it has available updates but when I click download updates, it says no available update.

    This happened to me as well. I use an iMac as my main machine, but have a laptop that my daughter uses. I use my Apple ID on both computers. I would occasionally see on my iMac that I have updates available and would click update and get the No Update Available response, yet the red badge remains displaying that I have an update. Found that a few people had this happening as well via these forums so I checked on the laptop and it updated. I then noticed the red badge on the iMac had disappeared as well. If you have any other computers that share your Apple ID, I'd run update on those to see if it fixes your issue.
    Thanks,
    Bryan

    iOS: Resolving update and restore alert messages
    For error -50: See error 13 and 14: 
    Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

  • I am trying to install MasterCollection_CS6_LS16. When I click the install file I get this error message: We've encountered the following issues. Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation.

    I am trying to install MasterCollection_CS6_LS16. When I double click the install file I get this error message: We've encountered the following issues. Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation. What does that mean? How should I proceed?

    Hey iraravitz,
    Could you please let me know what version of OS are working on.
    You might receive this error when you attempt to install on a drive with the HFS+ Case Sensitive file system, which is not supported for installation of Adobe Creative Suite 6.
    So, please try installing on a drive that has been formatted with a supported file system.
    You might refer the KB doc link mentioned below for the same:
    Error "Case-sensitive drives not supported" or similar install error | Mac OS
    Let me know if this helps.

  • I am trying to download F2280, but when I click on that option it downloads F2200-. Why??

    After downloading the latest updates, my printer would not work (yet again).  In the past, I have simply gone on line and downloaded for my F2280 printer and all was satisfatory.  This time however, when I click on the F2280 option, it brings up the F2200 series with an option to click on F2280, but when I chose the F2280 option it downloads F2200, repeatedly!
    This will not work for me so what am I doing wrong?

    Hi,
    The HP Deskjet F2280 is a part of the F2200 series, the installer is intended for the entire series and is correct.
    What issue you experience? ay the isntaller won't respond once connecting the USB cable?
    Please ensure the USB is no longer than 2 meters long, try plugging it to other ports of your OC once the installation prompts to do so.
    Be sure to connect it directly, not through any USB hub or extensions which may prevent a proper connection, if the same pesists I suggest trying a different USB cable and check again.
    Hope that help,
