Unable to install CS6 because of pre-release version

hello,
some background info: I'm on Windows 7 running on 64bit.
i'm trying to install CS6 but a message saying that the pre prelease version of CS6 in my computer needs to be uninstalled. i tried uninstalling it but it wasn't showing up when i went to the control panel. so i went and deleted the folders/files. probably a stupid idea. i learned about the adoble creative suite clean up tool and used it to remove all the remaining files that were left uninstalled. but after running the clean up tool and rebooting my computer twice, i still recieved the same error message. is there another way to fix this? did i do something wrong? thank you!

Check the PS forum. There's a sticky thread on this.

Install a non pre-release version of Xcode error

I've just installed Director 12 as well as Xcode and have attempted to compile a iOS app from director. The Xcode version I installed is 5.1.1 which I believe is the current released version. When I go to compile I get the message "Install a non pre-release version of Xcode.
Can you help me figure out what I'm missing? I'm following the "Publishing to iOS devices using director" publication.
THanks in advance,
Wyn

Ok,
I'll try that.

CS6 Installation Problem Pre Existing Version

So whenever I have tried to install the trial version for CS6 after I've downloaded the setup it says there is a pre existing version of the program. I've search the computer though and there is nothing CS6 on the mac. Already have the serial number just having issues getting the program to install. Any suggestions for this problem I really could use some help.
Thanks

Did you have the trial or pre-release version previously installed on your computer? Have you checked your Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers to see if there is any additional options for software to be removed?

NEVER USE PRE-RELEASE VERSION AGAIN!

As Adobe preferred service provider, I was invited to the pre-release version of CS4, but what they did not tell you is that, when the actual launch came, the pre-release version expired and you no longer able to open them, you have been using it for 3 months, it tells you that you need to upgrade to CS4 and after installing the released CS4, the big surprise is that all of your work for 3 months was a total waste because you can not open them in CS4! Phone support system is a joke, I have been transfered to several agents and every time they did I have to provide, user, email, serial#,case# and then finally got disconnected. Never again!!

I cannot install itunes because of an older version of bonjour that I cannot delete.

I cannot install itunes because of an older version of bonjour that I cannot delete.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Unable to install CS6 master collection for mac book pro(late 2011)

Recently, I have successfully downloaded Adobe creative suite CS6 master collection for MAC.
However, I am unable to install it. After opening the installer nothing happens, it does not proceed further. I have tried copying the contents from MasterCollection_CS6_LS16.dmg to another folder and then open the install.app, still no progress.
Please advice since I really need to install this.
Screenshot below:

Hey Vikrant thanks for the response.
The situation is like this, I downloaded the image on my desktop pc(which is windows) and then compress & split the image using a winrar. I then transferred the files to my mac book pro and extracted the image there. Unfortunately, there was a bug in the unarchiver software that I was using on mac to extract the image.
This bug was rectified today in a update given out by the dev.
Now, I can install CS6 without any issues. Thanks for the repsonse once again.

Unable to install CS6 Design & Web Premium

I have a valid serial number, so trying to install CS6 direct download. I'm unable to extract the .7z file. If I try running the .exe file, I get a message stating that I either don't have privileges or there's not enough disk space. I'm logged into an admin account and there's plenty of disk space. This message is then followed by several more error messages. I've checked the forums and haven't found a thread that addresses the same problem. Although this website indicates chat is available, for the life of me, I'm can't get to a point where I can open a chat with a live person. I just end up back at the support start page. It seems Adobe has gone the way of cellphone and cable companies when it comes to customer support. Or lack thereof.

You have not provided any system info, so we can't really know. Your phrasing as "an admin" account is suspicious, since not all admins do necessarily have all privileges and being an admin and having administrative privileges are different things. Likewise, while you may have plenty of disk space, you may not have it in the right locations like your user temp folder. Anyway, without exact details it's impossible to figure out what is wrong here.

TS3212 I am unable to install itunes because "the installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory"

I am unable to install the newer version of itunes. I have no problem downloading but when it starts to install I get an error message that the installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\StartMenu\Programs\iTunes
I am the administrator but it doesn't recognize it
How do I get around this?

Try HiReception's suggestion from the following post:

Error #2038 - unable to install CS6 on 10.8.3 brand new iMac

I have attempted to install CS6 creative suite from both the Adobe site and also from an .iso file - both times, it fails to install. Instead, I get the following (and cryptic) error message:
Sorry, an error has occurred.
The application could not be installed. Try installing it again. If the problem persists, contact the application author.
Error# 2038
I did have previous versions of Adobe products on this mac, but erased those files. I downloaded several application cleaners and none of them found a trace of Adobe products.
I verified font book and deleted all problematic fonts.
Any other ideas?
I'm desperate.

Thank you Megangeckler. The difficulty you are currently facing with the Adobe Download Assistant can be solved by removing the currently installed Adobe Download Assistant from your applications folder. You can find more details under the Known issues section of Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-download-assistant.html#main_Known_i ssues.
Prior to installing CS6 I would recommend running any available uninstallers located in the Applicatons/Utilities/Adobe Installers for CS6. If you are very lucky this should clear up any additional installation issues you may face.
If you do face any additional difficulties with installing CS6, not the Adobe Download Assistant as referenced in your screenshot, then please remove any remaining Adobe Creative software and follow this by running the CS Cleaner tool. You can find details on how to download and use the CS Cleaner Tool at CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

Unable to install CS6

I had to uninstall CS6 due to my computer ( I have a Mac Pro OS X 10.8.4) crash and now unable to reinstall it.
The following message appears:
""Some items for the following products could not be installed successfully"
I uninstalled it once again as well as using the clean tool but still getting the same message when installing the product again.
Would be extremely grateful if someone could help me with this issue.
Many Thanks!

Does it give you the option to check "error summary" when it says they have no installed correctly? Because that might be able to tell you where your problem is.

Can't install CS6 because of serial Nr.

Is there a way to find out my serial number on my installed CS5.5? The CS6 installer is waiting...

There is no way to find the serial number from installed applications.

Unable to install CS6 to a second computer

I'm trying to install my purchased Photoshop CS6 extended to a 2nd computer. When entering the provided serial number, I get the message "the serial number is valid, but a qualifying product can't be found in this computer". I previously uninstalled the software from another 2nd computer.

Did you de-activate it before you un-installed it? If not, as far as Adobe are concerned the software is still on that computer.
Unless you tell them, Adobe have no way of knowing that you un-install, the check when you install is automatic.
If you did not de-activate, then you will have to install a system image with Photoshop still present (if you have one) or re-install Photoshop to where it was, and then de-activate before removing it.
You will probably also need to remove it from the new install before you start, and even then you may have to phone Adobe to sort out the activation mess.

Unable to install iTunes because of QuickTime

I have a Windows 7 computer system. iTunes worked fine until I tried to update to the newest version. In the process I was told that the installation couldn't finish because a newer version of Quicktime is installed. I can't uninstall Quicktime. When I try I am told that there is a newer version installed. I can't find the newer version to uninstall. I followed advice to completely uninstall iTunes and the other components. I did it in the order suggested. Now I can't reinstall iTunes because of the Quicktime issue above. I now can't update my iPhone or iPad. Can anyone help?

Hopefully this will help people out who have no luck manually removing Quicktime or using the Microsoft Cleanup Utility.
When you try to install Quicktime it references a REGISTRY key called HKEYCLASSESROOT\Installer\Products\5B09BD67-4C99-46A1-8161-B7208CE18121 WinXp or
E7004147-2CCA-431C-AA05-2AB166B9785D Win 7.
This is where it reads what version you have currently installed. No where is there any reference to Quicktime in it. It took me a good 2 hours of hacking up and logging the install to get it to finally show me what it was trying to do. Delete these keys and search for any other. I can confirm that the key does exist on both Windows 7 and XP.
There is also a folder with the same name in C:\Windows\Installers\{5B09BD67-4C99-46A1-8161-B7208CE18121} or {E7004147-2CCA-431C-AA05-2AB166B9785D} that can be deleted.
After this you should have a smooth clean install of either Quicktime or Itunes
