Why can't I reinstall Adobe CS in my iMac

I have 2 iMac G5's both running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
Suddenly one decided that it woud not allow Photoshop 9 (CS1) to work so I tried to reinstall. It seems to reinstall but will still not save files. Tried to reinstall Photoshop CS2, and the whole CS2 suite and the discs will not load at all.
I have tested the disc in the other iMac and it's fine.
I have tried all the obvious repair routes - disc utility, restarting from the system CD, creating a new user, software updates, but still cannot get any of teh Adobe sofatware to reinstall properly.
Any thoughts much appreciated.

Troubleshoot installation problems (Adobe Creative Suite 2.x on Mac OS X)1. Make sure that the system meets the requirements.

>So - the good news today is that for no logical reason, I have managed to get CS2 to reinstall.
...Backed up hubby's iMac, then got him to clear a whole load of work out.
Restarting, if that's what you did, would have cleared the temporary files and allowed room for the reinstall. In addition, it sounds like you made some more room.
For the "original problem," did you install the 2012-001 Security Update? That caused problems like this for Rosetta/PPC apps. A new patched version v1.1 is available from Software Update or here.

Also, running so close to the edge for free space may be causing this issue.

Why can't I download Adobe Media Encoder CC and I have the the Creative Cloud Suite.

Why can't I download Adobe Media Encoder CC and I have the the Creative Cloud Suite? (Windows)

It's not a separate program, it's automatically installed alongside the other CC apps which need it (Premiere Pro, After Effects, etc).

Why can't I download Adobe Premiere Pro from the cloud- have tried repeatedly, followed all the posted advice- all other programs have downloaded without a hitch.... what's the deal?

Hi Clearly Stated,
Maybe try downloading the Premiere Pro trial and then licensing it?

After you install just covert it to be licensed as part of Creative Cloud using the "License This Software" option shown here.

Why can't I get adobe pdf translator to open?

why can't I get adobe pdf translator to open?

Perhaps because you don't know what you have (because there is no product called "adobe pdf translator"), Also perhaps because you aren't in a place to get support from Adobe. If you'd like us in the community to try to help, we might, if you can help us understand what is wrong. What is the specific product you are trying to use, and what happens when you try to use it. Please give any error messages exactly.

Why can't I install Adobe Digital Editions on my iPad?

Why can't I install Adobe Digital Editions on my iPad?

I have the same question.
IPad Air 2, iOS 8.1.2. I ordered some ebooks that required the download of Adobe Digital Editions. I select the supplied link to the Adobe site, select download, and I am given the option of windows or Mac OS. I wandered through the site and even googled an iOS version with no luck. I thought maybe the Mac OS version might be universal to apple products so I downloaded it and tried to open it in One Note, One Drive, and Google My Drive with no luck. The .dmg file is not recognized. So, I'm back to looking for an iOS version. Is there one?

Why can't I use adobe flash player to open attachments

Why can't I use adobe to open attachments - have downloaded latest version but still get a black page

You're probably using IE11. This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser, at least until Microsoft gets their act together and fixes IE..
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
Puffin
SkyFire
Photon Flash
Browse2Go
iSwifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

Hi Vickie,
As Kirsti mentioned, getting your OS and any error message will be helpful. In addition you might want to review this help document which covers the common installation errors:

Why can't I download adobe flash player to my iPad?

Because Adobe has never made a version of Flahs that can run on an iOS device like an iPad.
You can try out a Flash supporting Browser like Photon or Puffin and see if you can view whatever you are trying to view through there.

The download does not install Flash. You should find the downloaded file in your Downloads folder. Double-click on the .dmg file then double-click on the installer icon once the disc image has been mounted.

I understand what afevrier is talking about and I am having the same issue. I can look under system preferences, flash player, advanced and it shows me that I have the most current plug in version. I click check now and I downloaded the most current version, but still, cannot access any thing that requires Adobe Flash. There must be some other preference that we have set up that is not allowing us to use this. Thoughts from anyone??
A few questions. Where in Adobe Flash System Preferences does it say you have the most current version before you click Check Now? In my Flash Preferences at least, if I have the latest version I will be told that and not be offered to download it again. You can also find out what the most current version is by checking here http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ as well as what Adobe sees you have installed.
What browser are you using Flash in? Do you have any extensions installed, such as NoScript or Ghostery which sometimes interfere with Flash working? There are other extensions too which cause such problems but are IMHO essential none-the-less for reasonably safe surfing.
