Trying to install Illustrator CS3 on Windows 8.1 and get error message-installer database is corrupt
When I try to install Illustrator CS3 on a windows 8.1 machine and get the following error message. " Installer database is corrupt". Have tried rebooting computer etc. and still the same problem, any suggestions?
BrianDany I am sorry you are facing difficulties installing Creative Suite 3 under Windows 8.1. Windows 8.1 was not available during the time period which Creative Suite 3 was developed and the last updates released.
I would recommend reviewing your PDApp.log and possibly AMT3lib.log file for error messages which are preventing the installation. You can find details on how to locate and interpret the log files at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4. You are welcome to post any specific error messages which you discover to this discussion.

Hey there Alex,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’re running into an issue installing iCloud Control Panel on your PC, you’re seeing an alert message related to an iCloud server not responding. Take a look at the article linked below and try running through the troubleshooting steps it provides.

Using Boot Camp to Install Windows 7. Keep getting error message "Installer Disk Not Found"
I'm partially throught the Boot Camp set-up process and keep getting the same error message when trying to install Windows. The disk is in the drive, not sure why it's not recognizing it.
I had this problem on my brand-new Mac Pro, but fixed it in my case by burning another copy of the installer disc (from the official download image, not a pirate copy lol) at a SLOWER speed, rather than allowing it to burn at the "maximum possible" setting. This gives the laser more time to properly record, but it didn't perceptually increase the time it took to burn the disc.
I speculate that error-checking is too stringent, but weak; that is, not intelligent enough to correct any read errors. Of course, Apple's test configurations are likely using commercially-produced off-the-shelf discs rather than burned from downloads or they know to never use max speed out of habit. -

How to resolve message "Installer database is corrupt" when trying to install CS4 on Win 8.1?
I purchased a disk set of CS4 a few years back and have recently purchased a new computer. When trying to install CS4 on the new computer, I received an error message saying "Installer database is corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer support." Called "customer support" and after a VERY long time and three transfers, I was told "Too bad, we can't help you. Maybe download a new copy?" So I did. When trying to install the fresh download, I received the exact same error message: "Installer database is corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer support." This appears to be a conflict between the CS4 installer database and Win 8.1. Is this a known issue? How do I resolve it? Thanks for any assistance. ~Evey

Install ITunes on A Windows 7 64 bit and get error message
I am trying to install ITunes on A Windows 7 64bit and get the following error microsoft.vc80.crt,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publickeytoken="1fc8b3 b9a1e18e3b",processorarchitecture="x86"HRESULT:0x8007054F
Are you using the 32 or 64 bit version? There are two versions of iTunes. One is for 64 bit processor architecture, one is for 32 bit processor architecture.
Please download the 64 bit version and test it! In my view you try to install the 32 bit version.
Kind regards!
Philipp
EDIT: I am sure you currently try to install the 32 bit version! It doesn't work on a 64 bit system. Are you sure that you use Windows with 64 bit? -
I am trying to install Illustrator CS3 onto my new MBAir.
I am trying to install Illustrator CS3 onto my new MBAir. I have the CDROM for CS3 and want to download onto the Air. Tried copying the files via TimeMachine share but didn't work. Do I need to buy an external USB to download or is there another option?
Adobe applications typically place files in all sorts of locations, so trying to install Illustrator from a TM backup or copying from another system is very difficult since you probably can't get all the files. You'll need either an external CD/DVD drive or another computer with a drive you can access, either for Remote Disk:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5287
or if it's a Mac to make a disk image of the Illustrator installer CD which you can then copy to the MBA and run.

Trying to install Illustrator cs3, during the installation I am asked for photoshop cs4 disk I no longer have the photoshop cs4 disk
Do you own Illustrator CS3? An older version should not only not be asking you to utilize a newer version in any way, it couldn't even know about the existence of it.

Trying to install windows 7 and getting error message Windows must be installed to a partition formatted as NTFS
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Boot Camp Assistant creates a Windows partition in FAT32 to make the Windows XP installation easier.
The problem is that Windows Vista, 7 and 8 require a NTFS partition, so the Windows installer gives this error. The only thing you have to do is to choose the BOOTCAMP partition in the installer and go to “Drive options (advanced)” > Format. Finally, install it -

trying to install itunes on win 8.1. keep getting error apple application support not found. asks me to uninstall and install itunes. i tried several times and keep getting same error.
With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, see if iTunes will launch without the error now.
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
Itunes was working fine. Tried to install latest upgrade and get error message about an invalid character in the path "Program Files (x86)". PC, Win7, nothing else appears to be having same issue. Program still works, simply cannor upgrade.
Thanks b noir,
I tried this solution without success. After FixIt ran and didn't find a problem, either in looking for issues with "software upgrade" or "iTunes" it kindly offered to help me uninstall iTunes. I had thought of this as a possibilty but it seems to me that if you do that you lose a lot of "non-native-to-Apple" information you might have entered. I did this once and recovery was painfull. Is there a way to uninstall iTunes without losing all of that sort of thing? Any help would be appreciated.
