I receive a message when trying to open Photoshop CS6, Illustrator CS6, etc., then when I try to follow the directions for troubleshooting, the installer fails to initialize.
Error message: "Adobe Application Manager is needed to resolve this problem. However it is missing or damaged". Then, after download, the program fails to load and displays this message: "Installer failed to initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem". When following the link, Adobe Support Advisor has been discontinued 'because their products are now so stable. -I can see how stable they are.. How do I get assistance with Installer issues?
Any helpful thoughts?Hi David,
Kindly try out the steps in the below mentioned link to install Creative Cloud.

when ever i try to install photoshop cc on my laptop i keep getting this error "We've encountered the following issues installer failed to initialize. Please download adobe support advisor to detect the problem."
start at the top and work your way down applying applicable fixes until your problem is resolved.
if cc (win): https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-application-failed.html
if, your error is:
"Installer failed to initialize. File not found." or "Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to missing files."
first, rename OOBE Folder to OOBE.old.
to find OOBE:
64 bit win OS: Program Files x86\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
32 bit win OS: Program Files \Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
mac os: HD>library>application support>adobe>caps
mac os: USER>library>application support>adobe>OOB
if that fails or isn't the exact error you see, uninstall, clean (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and reinstall.
if you're using a dvd to install:
copy the disc contents to a desktop directory and install from that directory.
if you're using a mac:
1. Try to Create a new user account in Mac with Administrator Priviledges.
2. Login to the New user, Navigate to Mac HD> Application> Utilities> Adobe Installer folder, Locate products like Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and un-install them
3. Navigate to User Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
4. Navigate to Mac HD> Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
5. Start the installation again.
if everything applicable above fails, check your installation logs:

I have a 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium PC. I recently had to reinstall my PC. I'm trying to install my Adobe Products like Flash Professional CS5 and Photoshop CS5, but it keeps coming up with the message "Failed to initialize. File not found. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem." I keep looking around at different sites, but they seem so difficult and so much information which leaves me so confused. I have no idea how or why this has happened, and due to my autism it leaves me very panicky.
I've tried the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Here are the results.

I had elements 10 on a laptop and want to install on my desktop. I downloaded the program and get a message that it cannot be installed, possibly due to missing files. It says to download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. When I do, I get a message that Adobe Support Advisor is discontinued.
you need the matching exe file, too. both should be placed in the same directory and then click the exe.

Installer Failed to Initialize. Download Adobe Support Advisor - Advisor says no issues
I am trying to install setup for adobe photoshop getting the error which is mentioned above I have windows visa as operating system
You will want to review your PDApp.log file to discover what is causing your difficulties. The following steps can be utilized to allow you to discover your error message:
1. Navigate to the PDapp.log file in one of the following folders:
Note: The following folders are hidden by default. If necessary, use Folder Options (Windows) or Terminal (Mac OS) to show hidden files.
• Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp
2. Open PDapp.log in a text editor such as WordPad (Windows)
PDapp.log records installation attempts sequentially. Each line in the log starts with a date and time stamp, which indicates when the installation was attempted. Each attempt starts with a Build Version number.
3. Analyze only the most recent attempt. If you can’t determine which build attempt is the most recent, delete PDapp.log and run the installer again.
In the most recent installation attempt, look for lines identified by [ERROR] or [FATAL]. For example:
5/1/2010 13:49:48.847 [ERROR] DWA.SystemRequirement SystemRequirements check FAILED for payload - Adobe Media Encoder CS5 PCI WRAPPER
5/1/2010 13:49:20 [FATAL] PIM - Error could not create PIM Common Folder Path... F:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE\PDApp\
4. Search the Adobe knowledgebase for a TechNote that provides a solution to each error message. Omit paths and machine-specific information from search strings. For the preceding errors, for example, you would search on “DWA.SystemRequirement SystemRequirements check FAILED for payload” and “PIM - Error could not create PIM Common Folder Path.”

How do I find 3.6.10 in my computer with all my favorites etc
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xuab2q88.default is the location of the cache folder for your default profile. If the updates folder isn't there then it looks that Firefox hasn't downloaded an update.
You can download the full version from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
Delete the Firefox program folder: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
That will remove all Firefox program files in case some are locked or protected by security software.<br />
That should allow you to install a full version of Firefox 3.6.10
Your Firefox profile data is stored elsewhere and won't be affected. -
I received an iTunes Gift Card as a Christmas Present in the amt of #15.00. I validated it using the code on the card on your web site and was informed I now have a $15.00 credit. I then attempt to buy music downloads and when I attempt to pay using the code on the gift card I am told it is an invalid code. Several times I have tried getting the same results. Since it was a gift I do not have a receipt or know where the card was purchased. This is very discouraging. Help please....

I have a Dell computer running Windows 8.1 on which I had Photoshop Elements 11 installed without any difficulty. I uninstalled 11 as I have now bought Elements 13 and have downloaded the Download Assistant but it keeps telling me that 'Installation failed to initialize' so I can't install either the new 13 OR re-install my old 11. I have tried re downloading the Download Assistant and restarting my computer with firewall etc disabled but to no avail. I need to use Elements on a regular basis and I am really disappointed that I have just spent £80 on some software which I cannot install. I have very limited computer skills and I am fast running out of hair as it is nearly all pulled out. Please help!

CS5 says Installer failed to initialize on OSX 10.10.2
View image: Screen Shot 2015 03 31 at 1 15 57 PM
start at the top and work your way down applying applicable fixes until your problem is resolved.
if cc (win): https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-application-failed.html
if, your error is:
"Installer failed to initialize. File not found." or "Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to missing files."
first, rename OOBE Folder to OOBE.old.
to find OOBE:
64 bit win OS: Program Files x86\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
32 bit win OS: Program Files \Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
mac os: HD>library>application support>adobe>caps
mac os: USER>library>application support>adobe>OOB
if that fails or isn't the exact error you see, uninstall, clean (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and reinstall.
if you're using a dvd to install:
copy the disc contents to a desktop directory and install from that directory.
if you're using a mac:
1. Try to Create a new user account in Mac with Administrator Priviledges.
2. Login to the New user, Navigate to Mac HD> Application> Utilities> Adobe Installer folder, Locate products like Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and un-install them
3. Navigate to User Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
4. Navigate to Mac HD> Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
5. Start the installation again.
if everything applicable above fails, check your installation logs:
