Win 7/CS5 Can't install Pixelbender for Photoshop
I was asked to start a Win7-flavored thread about my inability to install PixelBender for Photoshop CS 5.
There are currently two installers: one for Photoshop 5 and one for Photoshop 5.1.
Both fail. The "5" installer says something cryptic about version "12" being required, and the other says something cryptic about "12.1" being required.
My version of Photoshop corresponds to12.0.4.
The Pixelbender team wanted me to explain why I am no longer running my installed version of Pixelbender. The answer is that I have migrated to a more powerful Win 7 machine and therefore had to install again.
Yes, ultimately that worked--thank you.
It's quite confusing because the 5.5 upgrade installs ANOTHER extension manager for the upgraded components only.
I distinctly remember running Extension Manager and wondering why Photoshop wasn't listed, but now I know.
Some observations:
(1) As previously mentioned, your error message refers to version 12 of Photoshop without explaining to the poor user that CS 5 is pure marketing fiction and Photoshop is really version 12.
(2) No where pre-sales or post-installation does Adobe explain to the poor user that it is going to run your PC under two parallel but segregated universes, one for CS 5 Untouched and one for CS 5.5 Upgraded. TWO separate Extension Managers! I've never heard of such a thing.
(3) Or is it FOUR, given the potential for running 32bit aps on a 64bit system?
(4) As a matter of fact, the poor user is not even likely to understand which apps will remain at CS 5 level and which ones are coming in as CS 5.5.
(5) The Extension Manager doesn't offer to look for downloaded extensions, but what's worse, if the poor user does the manager's job for it and locates the mxp in the file system, the Manager won't even accept drag and drop--you have to navigate the file system again with a File/Open.
Fortunately, none of these issues would be the responsibility of your department, but really, guys, can you tell somebody how this sux.
Again, thanks for your help. Pixelbender is essential to my work!

Can't install updates for Photoshop CS4!!
I downloaded photoshop cs4 onto my windows vista computer, but the version i have says 11.0. its really slow and lags when i try to draw so i tried to update it to 11.0.2 but when i went into the installer it said can not install please click the quit button. Anybody know how to fix this problem or get the updater to work? thanks.
Uninstall everything Adobe, run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, reinstall from scratch. in so many words: You have another dependent update already in place when you updated something else (e.g. Acrobat's PDF libraries) and it's blocking your otehr update. Though none of this may fix your actual performance problem in PS, to be honest. This may be completely unrelated and be a problem with the machine itself. Ask on the PS forum.

Can't install update for photoshop 13. it come up with error code Error Code: U44M1I210
Photoshop Elements Problems with Apple OS Yosemite
First of all, if you installed the Adobe TWAIN plugin by moving it, put it back. (You can get this error if you move it instead of copying it to install it.) Also, if you have done anything to the auto analyzer, like renaming it, name it back to what it was before. Then restart your mac and try again.

Windows 8.1 will not run my install CD for Photoshop 5.0. What can I do ?
Windows 8.1 will not run my install CD for Photoshop 5.0. What can I do ?
i'm not sure your expectations are realistic. ps 5 was designed for win95.
you can't fault adobe for failing to design ps 5 so it would be compatibile with an os that wasn't in existance when ps 5 was released.
to be sure, adobe did not warrant their software would work with all future operating systems. and no other software company can or does make such a claim. -
I can't install itunes for windows get error message 5
i can't install itunes for windows get error message 5
I've been having the same issues for the past year and a half. I've spent 6-8months trying to figure it out. Went to various Itunes stores with pictures on my Iphone per each step so I could relay all information that I'd come across and the personnel were less than helpful, after conversations that would sometimes last an hour between myself, employees and managers they always came back to "simply uninstall then reinstall" when I told them for the thousanth time that I've done that multiple times and my errors are happening while trying to reinstall it they act stumped and say "well then I'm not sure, I'll give you a call if I figure it out" and disappear. I've been very disatisfied at the lack of support from Apple and if Android to piece together a reletively reliable phone I'd switch to them in a heartbeat. I'll follow this question incase someone can answer this, but I don't have much faith.
BTW, wifey has Windows 7 running on the laptop and my phone syncs just fine to that and no trouble with itunes, just mine (desktop). -

can't install Reader for Pocket PC on HTC Touch Diamond? why?
Run the installation on your sync pc... the installation application will run only on a pc, then, activesync installs it on your winmobile device on the next connect session.

Sorry, no. Different operating systems. You'll need to look in the app store to find an office program. If you already have a mac, then you may want to look for Pages, or I have a PC and use office and like Documents to go.

Can we install PowerPivot for SharePoint on a SQL cluster?
We are going to deploy SharePoint 2013 with PowerPivot for SharePoint (installed from SQL Server media). According to what I've read out there for a small or medium farm, the recommendation is to install PowerPivot for SharePoint on
every SharePoint application server in the farm. However, accoding to the licensing doc I've pasted below, PowerPivot can be run outside the SharePoint farm. We are going with SQL Server 2012 Enterprise edition. PowerPivot requires a SQL
Server license for each server. To save money on licenisng, can we install PowerPivot for SharePoint on the 2 SQL Server cluster nodes (as a separate instance of course)?
Example License Topologies and Costs for SQL Server 2012 Self-Service Business Intelligence
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn305848(v=sql.110).aspx
http://vcollogan.knows.it http://twitter.com/orbhotHi Vincent,
PowerPivot for SharePoint is an Analysis Services instance in tabular mode. This
whitepaper mentions that clustering Analysis Services in SharePoint-integrated mode is not supported (page 8 under SSAS Server Modes.) You can, however, install it as a standalone
instance on the nodes of the cluster and let SharePoint handle the load balancing.
My apologies for the confusion on installing the SharePoint binaries on the PowerPivot instance. You don't need to install the SharePoint binaries if it is outside of the SharePoint farm. I was looking at my build documentation where I have both Reporting
Services and PowerPivot on the same machine with the same reason - reduce licensing cost - and similar to the 3-tier topology but with all of the service application and content databases on the database tier.

Help?Hi Kristelline and Paul-Armstrong,
I saw your posts and I will be happy to help.
@Kristelline
Do you have the links that you used to download the Cyberlink MediaSuite and Cyberlink LabelPrint?
Are you getting any errors message when you are trying the installation? Try doing the installation with your anti-virus disconnected. Also try right-clicking on the file and running it as Administrator.
@Paul-Armstrong
When do you get that error message about it not being a valid drive during the install or before it starts?
Thank you,

how can I install themes for my ipad2 jailbrocken using evasion?thanks
Your post indicates you have used Cydia, which is a software application for iOS that enables a user to find and install software packages on jailbroken iOS Apple devices. Since your iPad has been jailbroken, we can't help you in this forum. Best bet is to Google for answers.
Plus your Apple warranty has been voided and the Apple Genius Bar/Support will not help you.

Can you elaborate on your question? How exactly is your question related to SAP NetWeaver Portal: Application Integration? If you are really asking how to install attachments contained in SAP notes, there is no automatic/general way and you should ask your question in the Software Support and Maintenance space to begin with. What SAP note(s) are you looking at installing?
