I installed the RED Photoshop Installer for Photoshop on a mac that has both photoshop 2020 and photoshop cs6 among other photoshop versions and the installer installed the plugin in cs6 but not in 2020.
I am having this same problem - did you come up with a solution?
2019 Mac pro, latest catalina update, latest photoshop update as of 5-22-20, redcine-x build 52.
I am guessing the plugin isn't built to work with CC 2020 but I do need to come up with a solution, opened a support ticket at RED and will report back if I find anything out.
Hey Robb, RED support suggested using Photoshop 2019 and that did solve the issue for me as a temporary fix. The version I installed is the oldest available 'other versions' in the cloud installer - 20.0.9 release.
I'm trying to install the "RED Adobe Photoshop Installer" to be able to work with R3D files. Unfortunately, every time I open the downloaded RED Adobe Photoshop Installer, it says that I need to install Photoshop even though I have it installed already.
I contacted RED and they told me I had to contact Adobe for this problem.
I have version 23.5 of Photoshop.
Please help me.
Cheers,
Loc
I've used AAMEE 3.1 to get the pkg file. I've uploaded it to Casper Admin, created the policy and when i run it i keep getting an error in regards:
nstalling Adobe Photoshop CS6_Install... Installation failed. The installer reported: dyld: DYLD_ environment variables being ignored because main executable (/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Install.framework/Resources/runner) is setuid or setgid
installer: Package name is Adobe Photoshop CS6
installer: Installing at base path /
installer: The install failed (The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.)
Next i tried using composer and taking a snapshot oh the Photoshop Install. I was able to package it but the license didn't go through even using FEU/FUT with the setup. Adobe keeps adding different restrictions that i think / assume are the main cause of why my package keeps failing (Adobe ID, and Adobe Application Manager).
Last run i had was to use AAMEE once again to get the installer with the license, then used composer to capture the installation. I was able to run it and install succesfully but after launching the application, it keeps saying the adobe application manager is crashing and cant validate the license.
The problem we used to have with CS6 packaging was that it would look for certain running processes and fail out. It annoyingly did this at the end, I would watch the package install all of the files and then roll them all back.
First, check your AAMEE settings to ensure it will continue even if other processes are running, to disable Adobe AIR and to disable registration and updates.
Additionally, keep in mind that although it looks like a regular PKG from the outside, inside it's a big garbage-dump of files - dmgs, frameworks, symbolic links, etc. Downloading 1GB of a single flat PKG is much faster and more reliable than downloading 1GB of 100s of files of varying types and sizes. This is particularly true when you use SMB servers as your distribution points (ours are managed over SMB, but clients download over HTTP) - symbolic links don't survive being copied to an SMB share.
You can test this by installing the PKG manually. On the machine where you created the Adobe PKG, run the following in Terminal:
- sudo jamf install -package "MyAdobePackage.pkg" -path /path/to/pkg/ -target /
If this works on your freshly built Adobe PKG, then your issue is with getting it to your client machine(s) intact.
We've found there are two main ways to reliably deploy an AAMEE-created PKG - or any other PKG that uses a messy non-flat PKG format:
- Wrap the Adobe PKG in a flat PKG: Create a new package in Composer that places the Adobe PKG into /private/tmp. Add a postinstall script that runs: installer -target / -pkg /private/tmp/MyAdobePackage.pkg. Build it as a flat PKG.
- Use JAMF's "installPKGfromDMG.sh" script: You package the Adobe PKG into a DMG. You use a Policy's Cache Package function to put the DMG into Casper's Waiting Room. The script is an "After" script, which opens the DMG (name is passed in as a parameter), copies the PKG out and installs it. =3&fid=58
Using these methods to ensure the Adobe PKG arrives on the computer identically to how it was originally built, we've been deploying Adobe products quite reliably for the last few versions. Don't bother trying to install and snapshot Adobe products. Even if you get lucky and manage to capture working snapshots of individual products, you won't be able to install two snapshots together and have two working products. They share files and databases that AAMEE and its install logic knows how to handle, but you can't snapshot on an individual file basis.
"Next i tried using composer and taking a snapshot oh the Photoshop Install. I was able to package it but the license didn't go through even using FEU/FUT with the setup.

After install the AAMEE created PKG you will also need to install the updated version of Adobe Application Manager which you can download from Adobe..
After doing this it should solve that application manager issue..

All I can tell you is that because he installed it from the environment of the support window he was able to manipulate the page within the installation window to access the install button and it the installed with no trouble at all.
I too couldn't see the whole install window. I've been searching for a solution, then came across this solution from robograham. The tab button worked for me when installing Photoshop elements 2023. Thanks for the solution.
What i did was just spam TAB and then when I cant see the continue button I assume that it was high lighting the continue button after pressing tab twice so I pressed ENTER and it worked
I reported this as a bug last year in the 2022 version. So it has been 4 years now and Adobe cannot be bothered to fix their installer. This does not inspire confidence. I figured out the TAB trick the hard way. We are paying for this stuff.
Hi, Been trying to get the texture tool installer to work with my copy of Adobe Photoshop. however the installer is simply unable to located the installed version of Photoshop that i have (CS6 extended) So instead it will just install the thing into the generic Nvidia Corporation folder.
Hi, I'm having a problem installing adobe photoshop through the creative cloud. I'm using mac mini m1 and I've tried few suggestions such as cleaning the tmp file, rebooting the device, etc. I'm new to mac so don't know much of it. I'm attaching a screenshot for a detailed description of the problem. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
Hello! I recently purchased a Pima Pro 200 and am really enjoying it. I was hoping to use the professional print and layout plugin with Lightroom but I can't seem to have it install properly - I can't even seem to find it in photoshop or Lightroom. I am assuming the problem is me as I am new to all of this.
I've used PS on windows, of course Gimp became my main photo editing program when I started using Linux. Because I'm just an amateur, can't do any comparison, also can't say that I miss any of the options which comes with PS.
Personally Affinity Photo and Designer are better applications and cheaper than Adobe but can achieve the same reults - Solution? Install Windows on Virtual Machine Manager and then get Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer - a lot cheaper - one off payment and no rental. A design company (We Design) ditched Adobe for Affinity because the workflow is so much better. There is also Affinity Publisher.
Affinity Photo and Designer work adequately with 8 Gb RAM - they are on my eldests 8 8Gb Windows 8.1 Pro 640-bit Machine. With Adobe you get an awful lot of bloatware. For example, Adobe Reader 9.0 was over 100 Mb in size, Sumatra PDF at the time 10 Mb!
True. I want affinity more than adobe though some companies, even when I do freelancing, asking for Adobe products to be used? HWhen I looked at some works made in Affinity ohoto and designer, it made me wow.
