Setup could not initialize. Installation PS Elements 10 for MacBook Air
I try to install Photoshop Elements on my MacBook Air and I get the following error:
Setup could not initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem.
I did and he can not seem to find any problems.
Help.
I called in support last night because I'm impatient and expect better response times. I got the drive I had was damaged and I need to download the file. I expected at least to get a replacement disc, because I just bought the program. I was told that I have to pay to get the disc.
This is so frustrating.
I have at least had the operational programme.

Setup could not initialize. This could be due to a missing file.
Hello. I am a PC user, and I am trying to solve a problem with the installation download links listed on this page. When I try to run the installer, I get the message listed in the topic.
Initially, I tried to download products from the creative cloud desktop app, but while the download should start, it would not be completed entirely due to an error (I don't exactly remember the message). I ran the creative cloud cleaning tool, installed the Creative Cloud Desktop App and tried to start the download again. But it did not work.
So now I'm done trying to install them manually and this is where I am now.
Can someone help me please?start at the top and work your way down to apply applicable patches until your problem is solved.

Setup could not initialize - not the same issue as everyone else... ?
Hello
I'm pulling out my hair. When I run the exe to install for 2015 of CC, it IMMEDIATELY gives me a "Setup cannot initialize error:
This is a new PC, built later than yesterday, m and there is no other teenagersoftware be installed on it. I've seen mention in the forums of the appdata\local\adobe of compensation and program files (x 86) \common files\adobe etc folders, none of this has worked for me. I downloaded the ApplicationManager9/0_all.exe and installed, but it did not help. Then I tried to uninstall, that doesn't seem to work very well, so I downloaded the creative cloud cleaning tool and running. After installing the application manager there was Ceres in appdata and common files, so I deleted those.
Absolutely nothing has worked - the installer dies immediately when I launch, with the same error message 'could not initialize installation' I see the other people here an assignment to the top.
Can someone help me? I have no idea how to solve this problem!
Edit: It is a Windows 10 PC, not a Mac.
Thank you
Brian.

CS6 InDesign trial download: "Setup could not initialize".
Hi, I downloaded Adobe InDesign CS6 successfully, using the Download Manager software. When I click on "install", a window appears with a bar ('install Adobe'), progression and the bar gets about 2/3, then I get an error message saying "we met the following problems." Setup could not initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. "Then a link to download Adobe Support Advisor, or button to quit.
So, I downloaded and ran the Adobe Support Advisor. After initialization, the software only says "no problems found".
-My machine meets the system reqs for InDesign CS6
-Of course I tried to restart my computer and run all these steps again. We are still getting the error.
Help, please! Thank you.
Thank you, Jeff Wright. I went through my log files, searched errors and found another thread on the support forum that simply directed me to remove a process in my activity monitor.
For anyone else who has this problem:
Go to Applications / Utilities / on your mac activity monitor and delete the process "'AAM Update Notifier' or «AAM recording notify»» Then start Setup again. He now works for me.
Thank you very much!

When I first tried to install CS5.5, it was fine until the complete step. It would not be complete unless I closed Safari and SafariHistory (whatever that is), but to my knowledge, the Safari is not running. He wouldn't let me move forward without leaving the program, so I finally decided to cancel the completion/installation and started during the installation. But the next time I tried to install it, he gave me the message that it could not initialize. I uninstalled CS5.5, but it's always me that is not the message. I don't have another version of the Creative Suite in my computer. What can I do? Help, please.
Sorry to hear that
You can try to install the SafeBoot mode or via another user once account applications:
https://helpx.Adobe.com/x-productkb/global/start-safe-boot-mode-Mac.html
Or try again with the root account: connect to your Mac as a root user and try to install.
Activation and use of the user 'root' on OS X - Apple support
or if you still get the same error, I suggest that it is better to perform the manual complete removal of files Adobe and start over with the resettlement process.

I tried to install the two Master collection CS6 and CC and when I open the installer, I'm greeted by this error
I use a MacBook Air of 2014 (fully specced out) with Yosemite (10.10.1)
I also ran the cleaning tool already
Other questions do not hesitate to ask
Thanks in advance
