How to install CS4 on Mountain Lion successfully?

When you insert the disc 1 of Adobe CS4 and run the installation program, you will see a gray pop up screen "preparing for setup. Usually after this screen, you get to the selection screen usual what components to install as well as the prompt for the serial number. However, in some machines of Lion and Mountain Lion, CS4 will be glued to the gray screen "preparing for setup" and frozen at the last 7/8 bar. I note a disk partition mounted and disappear, but then again, it was a Lion. Lion mountain just refuse to load the selection screen for the installation.

Sorry, I know this is an old thread, but I came across the same problem, and my search brought me here. I finally understood the question. If you have tried to install and had the error of the AIR, and that you have downloaded the latest version of AIR as you are prompted to do so, and then you try to run Setup again, it will treat this as a custom installation. You have to scroll down through the programs on the right side of the window and Select the programs you want to install. Deselect Acrobat.com, Adobe AIR and Adobe Media Player (they can be downloaded separately later), but everything else selected, click "install". It will pass through the screen "Preparing for setup"- http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/installation-creative-suite-4-or.html

  • Installation of CS4 on Mountain Lion?

    Dear friends - could someone help please?

    I bought a new Macbook Pro with OS 10.8.1 Mountain Lion (like the former, we were starting to die a death, being 6 years old). I have a perfectly legal copy of CS4 Design Premium, I need to install on the new machine. However, as there is no optical drive and the software is on a disc - how can I install with additional fees no hassles/No...?

    On other forums that I recommend that you download a trial version, then enter the actual product code - but it doesn't let me do that Setup detects the download is not from the App Store.

    Ideas, anyone...?

    Download the free trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html

    If you see an access denied page, you didn't follow all of the instructions for the download.

    Use your serial number to install/activate.

    You must disable (help > deactivate) the copy on your machine dying.

  • Re-install CS3 on Mountain Lion 10.8

    Hello

    I upgraded from Lion in the Lion of the mountains (ML). The CS3 Design Premium installed worked fine after that. For some reason, I had to fix the user rights on my drive. After that, when I tried to run Photoshop for example, I got the warning message that my license has expired and I have to reinstall CS3.

    I googled and found the Adobe license recovery tool. But this custom is running ML. So I decided to uninstall the entire CS3 package. When I tried to install the CS3 package, I got an error message "unable to install".

    Anyone have had the same problem and solved it?

    Thanks in advance!

    Best regards, Vasinho

  • How to enable php on Mountain Lion 10.8.3

    I used this method without problems up to 10.6

    Just pulled up a new MacBook Pro with installed 10.8.3

    I created a folder Sites lacking, and recreates it as "blessed".

    I put a sample file to test later.

    I need to access the list of files from localhost / ~ mycomputername so I can test it before downloading.

    However, when I used the 'Go to Folder' to access the location of the file that I need to change which is: /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

    and tried to remove the # in front of the PHP5 file, it won't let me save it even if I don't myself add READ/WRITE permissions for the file in the READ the INFORMATION box.

    What a disaster!

    How to activate it if I see my PHP files in my own browser before I download them?

    This part works http://myname-computer.local/

    But this is not localhost / ~ ComputerName

    Apparently, the Apache server is enabled

    I used the terminal to find the string to remove the #.

    But it will not erase.

    What I am doing wrong?

    Supposedly, I would be able to access my files by navigating to the Sites folder I added after that I get PHP running.

    I followed the instructions here:

    http://osxdaily.com/2012/09/10/enable-PHP-Apache-Mac-OS-x/

    The problem IS NOT RESOLVED, so I don't know why it is marked as such.

  • Re-download Mountain Lion?

    How can I re - download Mountain Lion or should I?.  Currently, I run Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and iTunes 11.1.2 on a Mac Book Pro in early 2011.    I bought OS x Mountain Lion 10.8.2 back in 2012.  Only to find out that I could not use some software needed for work.  If I had uninstalled/downgraded.  I am now ready to update my OS.  Questions: a) how can I re - download previously purchased Cougar?  I find in my history of purchase on iTunes, but it does give me an option to download.  I have not received a disc.   (b) if I have or can I just buy an OS more recent Yosemite/El Capitan?  Thank you.

    purchase on iTunes history

    iTunes or the App Store? It should be in the tab App Store purchases with a download option.

    If you have never downloaded Mavericks or Yosemite, they are no longer available. El Capitan would give you the software up-to-date and secure.

    One solution is to create a new partition (~ 30-50 GB), install the new OS, and 'test' it. Otherwise as/like it, you can then remove the partition. Make a backup before doing anything. By doing this, if you don't like it you don't go well the recovery process.

    Check to make sure that your applications are compatible.

    Application compatibility

    (2) application compatibility

    Information on the compatibility of 10.11 El Capitan

    Open utility disk, select your hard drive (step 1), then the partition (step 2) tab and select the partition. Using of the / / / to the low blow it upwards (step 3) until the box the size decreases by about 50 GB. Select the newly created space and press the button (step 4). Name it something and choose Mac OS extended (journaled) format (step 5). Then click on the button apply (step 6). Download the installation program from the App Store and when it starts, point it to the new partition. You can make a copy of the installer out of the Applications folder to avoid having to re - download in the future. One time installed, go to System Preferences/Startup Disk, select the new partition and restart. Test now.

    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install the Mavericks, it can still meet the specifications to install Lion.

You will receive an email with a redemption code that you then use on the Mac App Store for download Lion.
