Why won't Illustrator cs6 trial work on a mac mini?

I downloaded the trial of InDesign CS6 and it works fine. But when I downloaded the trial version of Illustrator cs6, it shows up in my applications folder but when I try to click on it, it prompts me that this application is not compatible on my type of mac which is a mac mini. Any thoughts?

Do you meet or exceed the system requirements for Illustrator CS6? You can find the system requirements at http://www.adobe.com/products/illustrator/tech-specs.html.

Why won't Illustrator CS6 open in OSX 10.9 while Indesign and Photoshop will?

I just purchase an iMac with OSX 10.9.4 and haven't installed Yosemite fearing software incompatibility with my existing CS6 Design and Web premium bundle. Acrobat, Indesign and Photoshop all open up and operate fine but Illustrator will not open. I have little other 3rd party ssoftware installed so far, only Billings and Olympus software. Any ideas? Don't want the $50 per month solution either. You know what that is.
Thanks.

Solution!!! I didn't notice an error message beneath the numerous open windows on my desktop. It said, "you need to install Java (something-something) in order to use Illustrator, would you like to install it?" Obviously, I did and the moment the download and installation was complete, Illustrator opened itself, probably as a leftover command.
Hope that helps someone.

TS1702 Why won't my apps install on my ipad? it keeps waiting. Please help

Why won't my apps install on my iPad, it just keeps waiting. Please help.
Thanks.

These are all steps that have worked for some other users in the past. They may not work for you, but they are worth a try.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

You need a minimum 1 GB of RAM. It has to be of high quality*: http://www.macmaps.com/badram.html
You should also look over this FAQ to make sure you didn't miss anything*:

Note, in event you were interested in Lion, that Mac is not compatible with Lion unless you misidentified it. Only MacBooks with machine ID 2,1 or later can upgrade to Lion (1,1 and 1,2 are earlier). The Machine ID is in Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info.

Why performance of Illustrator CS6 slower than Illustrator CS5.5?

Ex: Process get text of TextFrame has 657 characters:
Dim t1 As String
Dim t2 As String
t1 = DateTime.Now.Minute & " " & DateTime.Now.Second & " " & DateTime.Now.Millisecond
Dim text As String
For iChar = 1 To iCharNum
      oChar = oContents.Characters(iChar)
      Dim str As String
      str = oChar.contents.ToString
      text = text & str
Next
t2 = DateTime.Now.Minute & " " & DateTime.Now.Second & " " & DateTime.Now.Millisecond
Result:
Time of CS5.5: 0s 487
                         t1= 38 43 71
                         t2= 38 43 558
Time of CS6: 3s 871
                         t1=42 54 738
                         t2=42 58 609

HT1386 why won't my ipad charge from my computer - my iphone does! and where has my facetime and contacts icons gone?

Why won't my ipad charge from my computer when my iphone does? also where have my facetime and contacts icons gone?

A computer USB port does not provide enough power to charge and run the iPad at the same time but it will charge it if the iPad is turned off. It will take about four times as long to charge than with the iPad charger.
The Contacts icon may be inside a folder, such as Utilities.
There is no Facetime icon. Start a Facetime link from a contact.

Why Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 are so slow on my MacBook Pro early 2011?

First of all sorry for my english
I recently installed Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 and they tend to lag even on just during normal work operations like zooming, opening a file, selecting a tool, browsing menus etc etc.
Cpu, Ram and Gpu usage are normal, I mean when I use these software there's at list 85% of free Cpu, 1GB of Ram still available, and 80% of free GPU. And I got 30GB left on my hardrive which is little but I believe is enough.
So I cannot believe this slow performance is due hardware limitations. There must be some driver issue or something else.
Anyone knows why CS6 is so slow?
Software version:
Photoshop CS6 13.0.1
Illustrator CS6 13.0.0
My Specs:
Os: Snow Leopard 10.6.8
Cpu: Intel Core i7 2.3 GHz
L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
L3 Cache: 8 MB
4GB ram
AMD Radeon HD 6750M

My experience is that Photoshop can demand and use prodigious amounts of memory and disk space, much more than one might expect from the size of the files being worked on. While I don't have direct experience with CS6, my daughter uses CS4 on a Macbook Air with 4 GB memory and she had 100 GB free (on a 250 GB solid state drive). CS4 is less demanding than CS6, and in fact with the SSD, it runs pretty well, even with just 4 GB memory (the solid state drive is basically like memory, in fact, in some ways). However after running Photoshop on some projects for a while, we noticed she had only 60 GB free disk space. After restarting her Mac, she had 100 GB free again. Photoshop CS4 was using up 40 GB of disk space! And this was simply editting some (multiple) photos from a digital camera. Photoshop not only has its own memory management processes, but it also pages to disk and uses disk space as "scratch space" in its own fashion. I think that it is inadvisable to run Photoshop with less than 100 GB free disk space, and that's with CS4, not even CS6. And if you don't have a solid state drive, the throughput might slow down immensely unless you have a lot of memory (I think someone else pointed this out already).
Bottom line -- based on what I have seen with CS4, 4 GB memory is too low by at least a factor of x2 (16 GB memory would be even better), and I'd say a minimum of 100 GB free disk space is a must as well. I saw CS4 using more than 40 GB of "scratch disk space" and you are using CS6, which must use significantly more resources than CS4, and you indicate only 30 GB free space. That seems too low to me. I think other Adobe major software packages are similarly demanding, unlike any other software I have seen or used. For instance, I think you would have no trouble running MS-Office software (which is also known for using computer resources, but not anywhere as much as Adobe software).
One thing you can do is when you notice things slowing down, not only quit all other software except for CS6, but also in the Finder, under the Go menu, enter
/private/var
under Go To Folder ...
and then look in the folder called
vm
If you see swapfiles, add up the total space they are taking, and also the space taken by the sleepimage file. These are working to decrease the amount of free space you have and they can quickly grow to tens of GB when Photoshop and other Adobe softwares are running.
Since it sounds like you have now upgraded your RAM, that should help, but you may find that the swapfiles and sleepimage files are taking even more disk apce faster and I think 100 GB free space is needed to avoid further slowdowns.

Illustrator CS6 Install/Download corrupt

Why won't my iPad 1 fully install iBook app ?

What happens when you try to install it ? Have you tried downloading it directly on your iPad via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it ? And/or tried a soft-reset of your iPad to see if it installs after your iPad has rebooted ?

Why won't iOS 7 install on my iPhone 4S

Why won't it install?

Each step involved in updating to/installing iOS7 requires communication with Apple Servers. They are currently being accessed by millions. Please be patient and just keep trying. Or wait till the traffic on them has dropped.

Why is my Illustrator cs6 not opening files.

I'm having a issue with Illustrator not opening files (eps or ai) either from the server or my desktop, opening original from Indesign, double clicking a file or from the menu 'open file'. I have to end up quitting Illustrator, then open the file from one of the methods above. Same days it all works fine then other days it doesn't. Quite confusing.
I've uninstall then reinstall Illustrator previously and it seemed to work fine for a while then it started doing it again.
And I've tried finding the info on the forums for Illustrator. If its there please point me to the right place.
Illustrator CS6
Mac running OS X 10.9
10GB of Ram
Please let me know if if more information is required.

Aaron,
Here is a list from easy to serious (note the Cleaner Tool as part of uninstalling and reinstalling in 6), and you may have some disturbance from other applications, see the usual suspects in Item 7) in 5), and 1) - 2) may be the first ones to try, before 3) and/or 4) ):
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.
