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 does adobe illustrator cs6 trial version keep uninstalling after restart?

    I have downloaded the trial version of adobe illustrator,
    I do my work turn my computer off, the next day the file has no icon and will not load when clicked upon.
    Any help with this?

    Nobody can know. you are not offering any system information or otehr details. this could be anything from system recovery to virus scanners and otehr security tools quarantining file or you not installing with sufficient user privileges in teh first place and thus changes not becoming permanent.

  • 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.

  • Why won't FP 11.4 work on my Mac?

    I've downloaded and installed FP 11.4 several times.  It is always "successful" and appears in the Internet Plug-Ins file... but I contiue to see the message "Blocked Plug-In" wherever I try to see a Flash Player image.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks!

    Chris!
    You nailed it! 
    There was no "Shockwave Flash", but there was:
         _Flash Player.plugin  (note the underline)
    The Info panel for it showed:
         Adobe Flash Player   11.2 r202
    I deleted it and the current version, so no FP plugin was left.  Then, I reinstalled 11.4... and Bingo, it works!!
    I have no idea how the underline got into the name... but it camouflaged it enough that I didn't notice it every time I looked at the Plugins.  Your sugggestion made me look closer.
    Many thanks!!

  • Need Emergency Help! - Why don't my Illustrator CS6 Glyphs work?

    They just do not work; I have tried using them every way I can think of and they will not work!
    I have deadlines and feel completely frantic...cannot find an answer anywhere!

    I'm using Illustrator CS6 v16.0.4 on Mac OSX 10.9.1. The font is Kohinoor Devanagiri, an opentype font. When I double click on the desired glyph from the glyphs panel, it doesn't insert the actual glyph but instead inserts the conjunct consonants that combine to create that glyph. Previously, I was able to insert this using Illustrator CS5, but after having upgraded to CS6, I'm having this issue.
    See attached screenshot - the highlighted glyph in the glyphs panel is not the open appearing in the document, but its the individual characters that combine to create that, that appears. The opentype panel doesn't allow me to change anything as it appears grayed out when I select the text in the document.
    What could be the issue?

  • Illustrator CS6 trial install damaged

    I have CS5 Design Standard installed. I downloaded Illustrator CS6 trial and installed it.
    I quit Illustrator CS5 for the install but accidentally started it during the install process and quit it again. Not sure if this is related to my problem.
    It says it installed, but when I try to run it, it says the application is damaged and I should reinstall. I ran the installer again and the problem persists.
    I tried running uninstall from the Illustrator CS6 folder, but it says it requires Adobe Application Manager to install. So I downloaded that. But it says it can't install, I should install the Support Advisor. So I installed that, and it shows two identical errors:
    cpsid_83578r3: Error, "Validate license at Pre-chrome" when installing Creative Suite 5"
    I clicked for details and it wasn't clear at all what to do. I tried running the CS5 updater which showed an update to camera raw and CS5 extension manager, but it fails to update, saying I should quit Adobe Application Manager, but doing so quits the updater.
    So... the CS6 installer used Application manager, but the CS6 uninstaller says I don't have Application Manager, and Application Manager installer says I can't install it. Support advisor says I should update, but CS5 updater runs application manager but requires that I quit it to continue, which cancels the update. WTF?
    I was pretty much sold on upgrading, but not if it's going to be this big a mess. I have work to do for my business. Luckily CS5 still works...

  • Illustrator cs6 trial fail

    I download Illustrator cs6 trial version, but says that i have oo days remaining! why??? What can i do???

    If the trial is indicating that it is expired your only options are to either purchase/subscribe to the software or try the trial on another computer.  You can find more details at Adobe trial software expired early - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/trial-software-expired-early.html.

  • Illustrator CS6 trial displays "unknown error... [CANT]" then, error loading plugins Drop Shadow.aip

    Bought new MSI laptop with Windows 8, I7-3630QM, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GTX 675MX, 128GB SSD w/ OS, 750GB HDD Data.  Installed both Illustrator CS6 trial X86 and X64.  It displayed the above error.  Uninstalled, reinstalled both versions X86 and X64 together and separately, once on SSD, then on HDD, same error. 
    Uninstalled and reinstalled, all C++ 2005, 2008, 2010 and .net, same error.  Every time I uninstalled I ran CC Cleaner for all temp files and registry, and removed all Adobe profiles and fonts and any file existing on my computer with the name "Adobe" included in it.  Have reinstalled Windows 8 back to factory settings, tried all of the above again, same error. 
    I have no other Adobe products installed on this laptop, or any other products other than what was installed from the factory.  Virus software is Windows Defender only.
    I have read all of the discussions that I could find in Adobe Forums and Google Search, tried them all, same error.
    So, now what?

    You're expecting too much. If you're really looking for Adobe to get involved, report it as a bug and someone might respond:
    Feature Request/Bug Report Form
    Other than that ask in the AI forum. You shouldn't keep your hopes up, though. That particular error is not that rare, but so far I haven't seen a clean solution. It's definitely a sloppy programming error where some function in some driver or DLL is called that is not part of a standard Windows install and without those specific components present, it simply fails.
