Yuliopsy, take your spam websites and fuck off.

ToneZone (2010-01-19)

Looks like everyone has topped out at 33%. I'll pass on this torrent. :(

 thethingy (2010-01-19)

eta = 21/01/2010 @ 08.00 uk time, big file loads of leachers.

JingleBob (2010-01-20)

Downloaded just fine. The extract didn't work so goodly, though. Just got a quick flash of a command prompt window then nothing. :(

 thethingy (2010-01-20)

file is 7.57gb and have uploaded 5.34gb so far so its very unlikly that you will be able to extract it yet.

 thethingy (2010-01-25)

it works on 7 64, when you get to the copying dll step just check each of your adobe folders for additional dll locations, youll understand if you read the readme in the torrent.

lukasluk (2010-01-25)

Have installed it and it is working great. Good job!
What I didn't understand - how to follow new updates?
Thethingy, could you give some advice?
Thanks.

Rigged (2010-01-25)

I got a problem. I turned my internet off and uninstalled any Adobe products I had, but when I try running the Setup, it won't let me. It keeps going Exception: TypeError: defaultProperties is null and won't install. Any way of fixing this?

 thethingy (2010-01-26)

lukasluk, what do u mean?, the updates are in folders numbered 1 to 17, go into 1 and install updates 1 then 2 then 3 then 4, then go into folder 2 then 3 then 4 and so on, then turn off auto apdates and dont update anymore.
Rigged, delete the files you extracted, restart your pc, re extract the files, restart your pc, then you should be ok to install.

Nightfalcon (2010-01-26)

Ok so far speed is good and if everything goes the way it is so far it will take me about 15 hour to download the whole thing. I let you know if it works.
Thanks thethingy!!!

 thethingy (2010-01-26)

increase the number of connected peers per torrent to 300 and this will download at 1.5 to 2 mbs.

intruderone (2010-01-27)

Hi, had a problem during instal. Started fine, got bridge, media player, etc. Then said it failed to instal premeir, photoshop and alike. I have the firewalls turned off (temp until net plugged back in). Any fix for this? I use win 7 32 bit

 thethingy (2010-01-27)

intruderone, install the cleanup tool in the download, run it as admin and uninstall all adobe entries, restart, reinstall.

Nightfalcon (2010-01-27)

So far everything is ok but I have a problem trying to make the hosts file look alike the one from your example the system said that the filename path is not correct but it is the one from the instructions. What can I do? Should I live the host file the way it is?

intruderone (2010-01-27)

hi, thanks, did that. same results. Oh well, it was worth a try!

 thethingy (2010-01-27)

Nightfalcon, dont start any of the apps till your hosts is set, use this one;
http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5296064

Nightfalcon (2010-01-27)

I'll try but for some reason the system would not let me copy the file. I am doing the updates now, so far it looks good we see.
Thanks thethingy I let you know probably its going to take me another hour or so for the updates to install.

intruderone (2010-01-27)

Hi, all installed but the following:
Fireworks,after effects, illustrator, adobe acrobat, premeir. All the rest did fine (photoshop was the big one I wanted!) I could probably download the others one at a time from this site. But dozen of the rest loaded and worked just fine.
Thanks,
intruder.

intruderone (2010-01-27)

Ok, I tried on a different machine we have hear, loaded and worked perfectly. So, I will out line the two machines for reference:
Worked all the way thru: Intel I7 920, Asus MB; most worked but not all: AMD 965 Quad, Asus MB. Both are pretty high end, so doubt it was equipment. The big dif, the Intel machine is Win 7 64 bit - Clean instal. The AMD is 32 bit win 7 upgrade from Vista. Ghosts of Vista may be what's up here.

 thethingy (2010-01-27)

intruderone, yes its previous and current adobe apps that cause the nstall to fail, you need to remove all adobes with the clean up tool to get it to install fully.

intruderone (2010-01-27)

Hey, which ever way it goes, we have a full instal on one and we greatly appreciate it! Thanks a million

phdsigns (2010-01-30)

I'm using this torrent and I have 2 say it is a pure jewel... Thanks 2 U "TheThingy", thanks for the immediate help too :) U rock!

barkingfish (2010-01-30)

couple of questions: 1 - it says "vista-win7"; will it work on XP 64bit edition? 2 - I used the windows clean-up tool to remove all my adobe apps, but I notice they're still there apparently it only removes installation log info. Do I need to uninstall the programs as well or will it just install over them?

 thethingy (2010-01-30)

yes it works with xp64, youre best to uninstall everything adobe with the windows cleanup tool then run both adobe tools b4 installing this torrent

joegabe3 (2010-01-31)

When I click on Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection_____thethingy and it installs it prompts me for Adobe Creative Suite 4 master Collection thethingy.rar. do I just select the same thing I just ran? Where do i go from this with the other 12 .rar files?

 thethingy (2010-01-31)

put all 12 parts in one folder, they should be anyway, double click on part 1, and click install in the window that pops up, you dont need any software to extract the files.

joegabe3 (2010-02-01)

The required volume is absent
CRC failed in ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 4 MASTER COLLECTION________thethingy\CS4 Master
is the error i get

 thethingy (2010-02-01)

go back to your bit torrent client, put the files back in your download folder, download/restart the torrent and select force recheck to check if you have download errors or have missed a part.

1g2008te (2010-02-01)

Everything worked fine!
Pure professionalism...
Thanks mate!

Gs84 (2010-02-02)

I'm getting an error massage saying that my windows it's not good... saying that i need either a px sp3 or higher or a vista sp1 or higher... i Have windows vista home premium.... HELP!

 thethingy (2010-02-02)

you need at least 2gb ram for this to work, if your ram is ok try the FAILURE TO INSTALL IN WHOLE OR PART OR UPDATES FAILING TO INSTALL steps in this torrent;
http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5323279

 thethingy (2010-02-02)

and do you have vista sp2?

emcinc (2010-02-02)

I have downloaded twice and it keeps screwing up on the extraction it says I need another volume like volume 5 if I push cancel it says I am missing certain files out of the extensions from photoshop or something or other, it is the same problem joegabe had but I think it has something to do with the rar self extractor maybe I should try to extract with my winrar, or not, because I dont know if that would work would it? but please if you have any suggestions that would be great! oh and when I tried to install the app anyway it said something about corrupt files, so what is your best advice on this problem? I hope you understand what I am saying I am running winvista sp1 if that makes a diff! Thank-You! I look forward to hearing from you! in this section asap!

 thethingy (2010-02-02)

the self extractor works just fine, try running as admin, but yes you can extract it with winrar, right click part 1 select Extract to ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 4 MASTER COLLECTION________thethingy\

emcinc (2010-02-02)

! C:\Downloads\ADOBE CS4 MASTER SUITE\ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 5 MASTER COLLECTION________thethingy.rar: The required volume is absent
! C:\Downloads\ADOBE CS4 MASTER SUITE\ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 4 MASTER COLLECTION________thethingy.exe: CRC failed in ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 4 MASTER COLLECTION________thethingy\CS4 Master The file is corrupt

emcinc (2010-02-02)

that's the message I get when i try to extract maybe it,s my crappy version of winrar which is limiting file length or something because i also was getting errors that said file name length cannot exceed 260 characters what the hell is that? But that only happened when i tried to open with winrar I have since uninstalled winrar and am trying to extract without it hope this works this time otherwise I almost have this other cs4 iso file that may work but in the meantime any thoughts! i WILL KEEP YOU POSTED! tHANKS Sincerely, emcinc TODA RABA

 thethingy (2010-02-02)

re downloaded this and it extracts ok

chuvak1 (2010-02-03)

The installer doesn't work. I get the exact same error as emcinc.

chuvak1 (2010-02-03)

hey nvm i got it to work and everything works great! thanks a lot thingy. The problem with the installer I had was that for some reason my files were named differently when I download it. U just have to make sure that part 01 exe, really ends with "...thingy.part01.exe" and then when it prompted me for something else I changed the name ending of part 2 in to ...thingy.part02.exe.rar" and same with 3 and 4 and so on. Hope dat helps if u read this emcinc. I think that maybe getting winrar and manually extracting all the parts one by one would also help with the installation error.

chuvak1 (2010-02-03)

Another question tho...will running CCleaner or Advanced System Care to clean up registry and junk - will that mess up this installation? Could adobe activex or adobe flash player mess this up?

 thethingy (2010-02-03)

chuvak1, no

arabica2k (2010-02-03)

Silky smooth thethingy... you're pro.

emcinc (2010-02-04)

okay I will try that thanks for the tip

haidaboy (2010-02-05)

Thanks a lot for this thethingy.
Installed as per your info and works awesome.
Saved me megaloonies which I need for university.

bigmike45440 (2010-02-05)

the error im getting.......
some files could not be created. please close all aplications, reboot widows and restart this application.
ive rebooted, tried reinstalling, and im still getting this same message, win 7 home os

 thethingy (2010-02-05)

bigmike45440, download the toolkit from the description and follow the failure to install steps.

Stefenatefun (2010-02-06)

do I just open up the .exe file?

 thethingy (2010-02-06)

Stefenatefun, yes double click on it, select install.

Stefenatefun (2010-02-07)

and what about the licenses

 thethingy (2010-02-07)

what about them?, there is a method to activate included if thats what you mean.

 thethingy (2010-02-07)

its best to do that and thats the first thing the readme states to do.

 thethingy (2010-02-07)

TURN INTERNET OFF!!!!
STEP 1
1) If you have ANY of the CS3/4 apps currently installed or Adobe Reader
then install Windows Cleanup from this folder and use it to remove
the old Adobe apps.

jwtester (2010-02-08)

Great distro, but the encore DVD library items are all missing (see library on lower right corner of the screen). I'm not sure how to get them installed. There are no sample/stock menus, buttons,submenus, etc.. and only the general category is there.
Any idea how to get these?
Encore is pretty hard to use without these.
thx.

 thethingy (2010-02-08)

try the failure to install in whole or part steps in this;
http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5323279

bigmike45440 (2010-02-08)

still the same problem, could not create some files, ran the tool kit, rebooted, turned off internet. any other suggestions?

swaggerhouse (2010-02-08)

im stuck on step 5. were do i find the host file?

 thethingy (2010-02-08)

C windows system32 drivers etc OR %systemroot% system32 drivers etc, in 64 bit open explorer and type the address

 thethingy (2010-02-08)

bigmike45440, do the uninstall steps in safemode, then reinstall as admin closing all open apps first.

gingerphil (2010-02-08)

hi, I maybe having a blond moment but when i try altering the host file it wont let me save it any idea's?

Skynet5 (2010-02-09)

Can anybody tell me what makes this torrent different from this one:
Newer version numbers? Better working actiavtion methods?

 thethingy (2010-02-09)

this is up to date till now, that one has the origional release of cs4, nearly 18 months old, that one uses a differant activation that is unreliable, this one uses a single dll file that works with 32 and 64 bit pc's and does not deactivate after updates are applied, that one does not block all the activation servers this one does.

 thethingy (2010-02-09)

gingerphil, read the vant access or save hosts file in this;
http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5323279

jwtester (2010-02-09)

Are the encore DVD library items only missing for me.
Do you see them. (In my library windows on lower right corner of the Encore screen there is no entry).
I'm not sure how to get them installed. There are no sample/stock menus, buttons,submenus, etc.. and only the general category is there.
Any idea how to get them in here?
Any help would be appreciated. I did some google/forum search and some people reported similar problems when using the 30 day trial but here with the key it should not be the case.
Maybe there is something in the protection that prevent them from being de-archived.

 thethingy (2010-02-09)

jwtester, do the clean install steps in this;
http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5323279

dream556 (2010-02-09)

 thethingy (2010-02-09)

dream556, do the clean install steps in this;
http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5323279

 thethingy (2010-02-09)

encore dvd library should be in;
%$^&*#$ (x86) Adobe Folder
or just open ENCORE CS4 open resource central under templates you will see missing items listed

 thethingy (2010-02-09)

gingerphil (2010-02-09)

cheers m8 for the advise, followed the instructions and everythings working great. many thanks

gman75 (2010-02-10)

Got two errors when trying this. First error came during extraction - Some Files could not be created. Close all programs, restart computer and try again. Second error was upon setup - Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. What now? It's obvious it is working for others. What could be the problem?

 thethingy (2010-02-10)

your files have not extracted propely, delete the extracted files, restart, re-extract

hurlflum (2010-02-10)

In the instructions it says that you should replace the AdobeLM.dll files in a couple of location but it doesn't say anything about replacing the one for After Effects at Adobe After Effect CS4/Support Files. Should i replace this as well or is it some kind of exception?

 thethingy (2010-02-10)

hurlflum, yes you should, im sure it does say that though

jwtester (2010-02-10)

> encore "missing" extra content is here;
> http://iuware.iu.edu/list.aspx?id=196
yes but it requires a login.
I don't suppose you could just zip the library directory for encore that contatins all the .psd files(I think that is all that is needed) and post it?
Thx for your help

 thethingy (2010-02-10)

jwtester, yes it does i createda guest account but it bared me after 1st download, the "missing" content is not really missing its extra, im sourcing it now and will upload it.

jwtester (2010-02-10)

ok, that's great. Thank you for figuring out that they were extras. I'm looking forward to them. Do these extra fill in the items under the library section of encore? (Fyi, I'm not talking about the template section which lets you download some sample from the web).
I hope they fill-up the menu of that library section. They should be like ~10 items in the drop down and then lots of samples.

 thethingy (2010-02-10)

ill be posting the extras later today as;
ADOBE CS4 EXTRA CONTENT AND RESOURCES,
its about 3gb so far just waiting for the photoshop extras.

jwtester (2010-02-14)

thx for the extra content. Awesome job :)

crakey (2010-02-14)

I just created an account to thank thethingy. I've spent the last three weeks trying other downloads and having absolutely no luck.
This torrent is exactly what it says it is, the instructions are super clear and everything is working perfectly.
thethingy, if I knew you in real life, I'd buy you a beer!

adarshbr (2010-02-15)

Hey Mr. thethingy, I really don't know how to thank you. I've been seeing some of your torrents "FANTASTIC JOB" I Appreciate all your efforts and such fast replies. THanks a lot for all your torrents especially ADOBE ones!

Robinotje (2010-02-15)

Nice torrent! One question: do you have to install all programs, or can you skip some? I only need some programs, so why would I install all of them? :)

 thethingy (2010-02-15)

you dont need to install everything if you dont want to, but all of these go together, the seperate apps are here;
http://thepiratebay.se/user/thethingy/

Metaludo (2010-02-16)

---->robinotje
during the installation, you can check the soft that you want to install

 thethingy (2010-02-17)

remind me what step 8 is?????????

nilf1sk (2010-02-17)

Hi thethingy,
Everything installed perfectly and I can even open for example photoshop, but when I open any file I get this error message: Can't find Module: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Version Cue CS4\Client\4.0.1\VersionCue.DLL
This also happens when I right click on the activation blocker or when I right click on the host file to open with notepad.
What can be the problem?
Regards,
Nilf1sk

 thethingy (2010-02-17)

the first time you run the apps you should do so as admin if you have vista/7, try that then post back

 thethingy (2010-02-18)

there is no crack here, install and copy 1 file over and sort your hosts out, job done, if i had a monkey and a spare 5 minutes we would have the worlds first adobe installing monkey........

rhai723 (2010-02-18)

ei thethingy.. i have a problem.. when i run the activation blocker, this is the only thing i get..
Server Blacklist added..
Press any key to continue..
I'm not having the hosts file you mentioned...

uhmm... if you mean the Adobe.dll something, i've already done that.. i've replaced the dll file as the instruction said... but the outcome is still the same..
:(

 thethingy (2010-02-20)

answr (2010-02-21)

Do i also remove adobe flash player 10 ActiveX and plugin support off the - control panel , then run ccleaner ?

 thethingy (2010-02-22)

youre aswell to as they are free and you get prompted to install them when you need to

answr (2010-02-22)

@Thingy
Everything worked well so far the only thing that did not install was adobe acrobat reader 9.0 pro.,
would i have to uninstall everything and put everything back on?
Also on step 9 , i went to all the programs and i got no accept licence agreements to checkoff?.
and i go to edit, preferences and i found nothing to un-check?.. is this normal... i went to all the main programs first thinking these are the ones i would have to un_check.. but so discovered nope.... does it need to have internet to have this option ?

 thethingy (2010-02-22)

dont worry about the licence, with acrobat try just installing acrobat from the main setup, if that fails uninstall acrobat & reader entries with the windows toolm and retry

emcinc (2010-02-23)

I dl'ed this before and worked fine but now I have a new computer with a 64 bit windows 7 system will this work with it? Sincerely EMCINC by the way does anyone know the server address for nero just curious

emcinc (2010-02-23)

Okay I read some more comments and it appears all is well for 64 bit # 7 land to dl and install will keep you posted on progress thanks again are those new extras seperate dl or in this one?

 thethingy (2010-02-23)

yes the extras are a seperate download, click the link

angpirata (2010-02-24)

pls. help i need XFORCE keygen, thank you..

answr (2010-02-25)

Thingy ! like i knew u in real life i would buy you a beer 2! ... oh.. and just for the fix... i installed reader 9.0 from the adobe site and then Ran the Startup from the extraction ... and checked of acrobat 9.0pro and wala.. it installed. thanx a Million

Skeezix08 (2010-02-27)

All hail thethingy!! I followed the instructions to the letter and every app works fine!
HINT: unrar the rars to your root (e.g. C:\AdobeCS4) If you unrar down your directory chain some files will exceed Windows filename length but the error you get will look like the rar was corrupt.

frenrie (2010-02-28)

Thanks so much for the upload! It works great but it seems to be conflicting with my Microsoft Office. Whenever I try to go into Office I get an error message saying "it has not been installed for this user, please run setup to install application". Please help!!

 thethingy (2010-02-28)

hello there if you look on my other torrents there is an office 2007 activator, the comments in that torrent deal with that issue

Poopasaurus (2010-02-28)

First: Thank you, "TheThingy," as this is the best torrent I have ever seen on here.
Second: I'm not a pirate by nature, but Adobe sucks so much dick at what they do and charge so much for it, bless you people who make it free for us in a Robin Hood fashion.
Third: This has worked for me on three computers. If you guys can't get this torrent working, READ THE FUCKING MANUAL which TheThingy spent his time writing. It works. The biggest thing you have to remember is modifying your hosts file to defeat Adobe's DRM (which skullfucks your Windows installation but fails to do anything of value for you *or* Adobe), but there's even a batch file to do this, as well.
All in all, a great torrent.

Robinotje (2010-03-03)

I've got a problem while extracting...

I hope you can help me out of this. :)

 thethingy (2010-03-03)

extract it to c , whare your programe files are

peanutville (2010-03-03)

All worked except the typical adobe acrobat pro + illustrator, but needed illustrator. Eventually after messing around I installed the programs I needed with the following working CS4 serials (installed offline & corrected host file);

DanielRich_jp (2010-03-04)

Hi thethingy ,
Thanks for a great upload and an even greater willingness to help people out.
My OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64. I get the 130.3 error code. The problem is that x64 versions have a mirrored/redirected system32 folder to serve the needs of both 32 bit and 64 bit apps. We have two folders Programs Files [x64] and Program Files (x86) [32-bit]. Root/Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts leads to said file and has been edited and updated. This is a link to said topic @
I upgraded vista x64 to win 7 x 64 with both CS3 and CS 4 running and updating, but after reformatting and reinstalling Win 7 CS4 refuses to operate properly.
This has nothing to do with you, because you've truly done a wonderful job, it's just frustrating to uninstall, strip, delete anything related to Adobe, only to end up where I began.
If you've any ideas or suggestions, I'll be for ever in your debt.
Thanks in advance,
Daniel
P.S. It did not install a FLEXnet folder. Installed as per your instructions.

L_Ginous (2010-03-04)

Thanks for the torrent.
I have begun to install cs4. The installer window (Adobe CS4 Master Collection Installer: Initializing) appears with "Checking System Profile" on the bottom of the window. The blue completion bar seems like it's towards the end; however, doesn't look like it's going to finish. I've let it sit for over an hour. Any idea what this might be? Thanks!

seoduder (2010-03-04)

I used Window Clean Setup utility. It didn't work. Now I can't uninstall any Adobe programs. They're still there. I have tried EVERYTHING. Control Panel says something else is open. I even tried forcedly deleting the Adobe folder with LockHunter. No success. It's been three days of constant struggling and trying. This makes me want to kill myself. I hate life.

L_Ginous (2010-03-04)

Still can't get past the set up window. Now im getting "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue contact Adobe"...

DanielRich_jp (2010-03-04)

L-ginous,
You don't mention your OS, but I assume you're using Windows. These are the minimum requirements to run Adobe Master CS4
Windows
* 2GHz or faster processor for DV; 3.4GHz for HDV; dual 2.8GHz for HD*
* Microsoft® Windows® XP with Service Pack 2 (Service Pack 3 recommended) or Windows Vista® Home Premium, Business, Ultimate, or Enterprise with Service Pack 1 (certified for 32-bit Windows XP and Windows Vista?)
* 2GB of RAM (more RAM recommended when running multiple components)
* 24.3GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on flash-based storage devices)
* 1,280x900 display with OpenGL 2.0?compatible graphics card
* Some GPU-accelerated features require graphics support for Shader Model 3.0
* Dedicated 7200 RPM hard drive for DV and HDV editing; striped disk array storage (RAID 0) for HD; SCSI disk subsystem preferred
* For SD/HD workflows, an Adobe-certified card for capture and export to tape
* OHCI-compatible IEEE 1394 port for DV and HDV capture, export to tape, and transmit to DV device
* DVD-ROM drive (DVD+-R burner required for DVD creation)
* Blu-ray burner required for Blu-ray disc creation
* Microsoft Windows Driver Model? or ASIO-compatible sound card
* QuickTime 7.4.5 software required for QuickTime and multimedia features
* Broadband Internet connection required for online services?
Hope this helps.

DanielRich_jp (2010-03-04)

Forgot to add this. This [free] utility will check your system and show you new drivers [free version max download of 2 drivers per day]. It saves a lot of time, because it will tell you when new drivers are available. Check it out here @ http://www.drivermax.com/

L_Ginous (2010-03-04)

@DanielRich_jp Sorry, I got Windows 7 with 4gb ram and 347 free/500gb drive, 7200 rpm.

DanielRich_jp (2010-03-04)

L_Ginous,
Well, in that case it's odd. Are all your drivers up-to-date? Because with your specs the endless waiting for "the requirements" phase to end seems to indicate something's missing, but that's my guess. Hopefully someone else will be able to help you out. Fingers crossed.

CGSmurf (2010-03-07)

@ L_Ginous
I have the same problem, try this:
Installer freezes while Checking System Profile at 80-90% with the Adobe Creative Suite 4 or Point Products.

Danney75 (2010-03-08)

Great download! Anyone got any problems installing the update or is it safe to update?

 thethingy (2010-03-08)

all the updates till feb are included

MTVSlick (2010-03-09)

I followed the instructions 150% everything worked until I re-connected to the intrenet, i get this error,
Licensing for this product has stopped working.
Error 130:3
http://www.adobe.com/support
any suggestions?
did I miss something?
Can it be fixed without removing and reinstalling?
Thanks in advance.

 thethingy (2010-03-09)

MTVSlick, open your hosts file with notepad and check you have the entries that are in the instructions

DanielRich_jp (2010-03-09)

HI thethingy,
Thanks for the upload and support. Have you tested this on a Win x64 OS? Because x64 has two system32 folders, 1 system32 and the other sysWOW64 [redirection].
Thanks in advance.

DanielRich_jp (2010-03-09)

Make that Win 7 x64. SOrry

 thethingy (2010-03-10)

this works on all 64bit, xp64 is not suported by adobe but it does work still

hotelrus (2010-03-11)

Thank u so much. Exellent job, everything works well. Could somebody tell me, is it possible to make a russification for this file???

 thethingy (2010-03-11)

fireball699, have you got office 07 installed?

 thethingy (2010-03-11)

it is a problem registry key, itll be one shared by office, if you go into regedit youll notice odd permission settings on keys, give yourself permission for all of them, or you can create another user and install it there for all users then delete that user account

jspeedy (2010-03-11)

Awesome! Now, though, FireFox (on XP) needs an updated Flash player. Can I do that from Adobe without screwing everything up?

 thethingy (2010-03-11)

yes you can update the player no problems

 thethingy (2010-03-11)

a fresh install would sort the problem out and office will install just fine after adobe, but b4 you do that microsoft have a tool for reseting the permissions on reg keys, on my other adobe posts a guy had success with it but he did not provide a link, try microsoft fixit

 thethingy (2010-03-11)

this here tells of how to reset the registry;

 thethingy (2010-03-12)

fireball699, i think a clean install of win will be your only other option now

nordahl498 (2010-03-13)

Hey ;D
When I am trying to run the Actication Blocker, the programs starts, but it stands "Server Blacklisted Added"
What does that mean?

 thethingy (2010-03-13)

nordahl498, it means its finished

nordahl498 (2010-03-13)

Thanks, it works great! ;D

crakey (2010-03-13)

I installed the suite, got everything running without any problems.
When I went to use Tweetdeck afterwards, I got an error message that the application required a version of Adobe AIR that couldn't be found. I downloaded AIR from the link given in the message but when I tried to install it, I got a message that said AIR was already installed on the system.
Using CCleaner, I was able to remove AIR. When trying to download it now, I got an popup that an error has occurred and to contact my administrator.
If given the choice between having the suite work perfectly or having AIR, I'd go with the suite. But it'd be nice to have AIR again.
Any tips?

 thethingy (2010-03-13)

what i think has hapend is youve used an app that uses air but the air you have with this torrent is the latest version but the app that you want to use air with uses an older version so it dident work ,,,, youve then uninstalled air but cant reinstall it as you have applied the air update in this torrent so you cant then install an older air over a newer air ,,,,,, understand what i mean???? ,,,, if this is the case then you should have updated the app that uses air instead of removing air ,,,, does this make any sence to anyone ??????

crakey (2010-03-14)

I couldn't update Tweetdeck because every time I tried to use it, I got the error message about not having the right version of AIR, hence why I uninstalled it and tried again.
Its ok, I'd rather have the suite than Tweetdeck, just thought I'd ask.

Laser988 (2010-03-14)

please see the setup log file for details" i'm not too sure where can i find the setup log.. and ive used the cleanup software, the clean install& uninstall & reset registry, but the msg still appears.. help...... *sobs*

Hallihammer (2010-03-15)

@Thethingy
this torrent is awesome, thanks alot for the effort.
but I am getting the same problem with one of the apps (Fireworks).
Im getting the error message:
This product as encountered a problem which requires that you to restart your computer before it can be launched.
If you continue to see this message after you restart your computer, please contact either your IT administartor or Adobe technical support for help, and mention the error code shown at the bottom of this screen.

I have restated my computer and still get this message.
I have tried to re-use the AdobeLM.dll file from the activation & intallation folder and still the same result.
I know that atlease one other has had this problem in these comments, and you told him to check out the hosts file. I have done that and it matches to the instruction.
what more can I do?

Hallihammer (2010-03-15)

@Thethingy
please disregard my last post, I figured it out:)
I have another problem now...
when starting Adobe Illustrator, it starts up then just as it has finished starting up it closes! what is wrong here?
ps. I have installed this once before and had a problem with the Illustrator. in the "effects" curtain I could not select anything, like there were no effects installed.
I also noticed when I start the Illustratior it says: Adobe Illustrator CS4 TRYOUT with the words tryout in gray! why is this?

Korialstrazs (2010-03-18)

Im using Windows 7 64bit, everything was working well, I was opening all the files to make sure none will update by themselves and when the internet kicked in it started with the 130:3 error saying "the product has encountered a problem which requires me to restart..." I do restart and nothing changes. My Hosts file is the same as the one in the instructions.

Summun1 (2010-03-20)

Hi, Thanks a lot for this! It worked perfectly fine since I downloaded it and followed the instructions. I Installed it a few hours ago and it worked as it should for around 12 hours but now
whenever I start it it gives me an error message:
Telling me that it has encountered a problem and that I must restart my PC before it can be launched. The error number is 130:3
It's some issue with the licensing.
I think I didn't properly change the host file thing. The one where I had to change the last IP I was unsure what to put there and exactly where Under the IP adress or the name. PLEASE HELP

Summun1 (2010-03-20)

It worked fine for some time but then then an issue with the license came up.
error 130:3
It's probably because i didnt edit the hostfile correctly, please help.
because i didnt know what to putt in the last ip thing i just skipped that part what do i put in there plz help

TheTuneOfTurbo (2010-03-22)

Hi thethingy, I've downloaded this and during the installation process an error pops up and gives a list of the programs and says the can't be installed with a red X to the right. I've used to cleaner to get rid of my old cs3 apps and components. There is still Adobe Reader in the Adobe folder in the programs folder, I uninstalled it with cleaner but can't delete the folder/file, could this be part of the problem? Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated, thanks a ton. :-)

tlu973 (2010-03-24)

Hey thethingy
so far i've followed all your instructions and extracted the creative suit files but got an error saying it could not create some files. So then I tried installing windows cleanup and ran it. I selected to uninstall every Adobe product and click remove and then the command prompt pops up with text then it stops and i close everything and restart the computer. However, the Adobe products are still there, is there something that I am doing wrong with the Windows Cleanup?? btw I have Vista (x64)
would really appreciate it if you could help
thanks

 thethingy (2010-03-25)

wissi182, sorry for the delay, adobe sugested removing office then removing adobe, reinstall adobe then office so basicly try uninstalling both with the add remove programes then run the windows uninstaller then the adobe cleanups then run the reg permissions reset (link in toolkit description). once all thats done reinstall adobe then office.
TheTuneOfTurbo remove all adobe apps (readers included) if you cant delete folders restart then take ownership of the folder to delete, once system is clean of all adobe things reinstall.
tlu973, do the failure to install steps in this;

jchester (2010-03-25)

thethingy, This is a great torrent. You are fabulous. I have installed some of your other CS4 torrents like Flash, Fireworks, illustrator, and photoshop and they worked great. Can I use this torrent to install the remainder of the collection or do I have to remove the other torrents and run the toolkit first? Thanks again for all you do!

 thethingy (2010-03-26)

you can just install certain apps, probabily best to get rid of the single apps and just use this though

lawnmower2010 (2010-03-30)

Another question, I've installed master suite and other torrents, but for some reason flash player is gone, and most websites display the associated requirement to have Flash 9 or better. Can I download flash player from Adobe without messing up the torrent installs? Or is there another source or maybe setting that can get my browser to play those flash based items?
Thanks again!!!

 thethingy (2010-03-30)

^^ download it, it doesent stop anything from working

blkjack0o (2010-04-01)

1st Thx for a great upload... I have a strange issue with dreamweaver after install, and since it's not in the thread I doubt it's related to your upload, but I figured maybe someone could help. When editing text the property panel is partially not visible, as if part is beneath a layer, so features like font, size, and alignment aren't visible. Running Win7x64. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling another torrent, same issue, tried compatibility mode, different display settings... It's really annoying since it's a highly used feature. Any suggestions appreciated.

 thethingy (2010-04-02)

try adding this;

wow. installed and everything went perfect on my first try - perfect set of directions. cant thank you enough. people should appreciate this - best torrent out there! running win 7 pro x86

blkjack0o (2010-04-02)

I figured out my issue reading a review about my laptop. Easy fix, just hadn't put it together since Dreamweaver has been my only problem program... Since I jumped in resolution to 1920x1080, i hadn't thought about the fonts being increased to compensate, and sure enough my Win7 defaults were at 133%. Reducing the font to 100% fixed the problem.

kershaw311 (2010-04-05)

Installed and got everything to work, except for InDesign. Every time I try to run it all get is "Adobe Indesign is not properly licensed and will now quit." I've redone every and I still get the same result weather the internet is on or off. Anyone have an idea?

 thethingy (2010-04-05)

replace the adobelm.dll file in the indesign folder with the one in the torrent and then restart it

Tyler380 (2010-04-14)

wish i woulda seen this before i downloaded them all separately

Iforgotmyname (2010-04-14)

Wow, Thingy..you are a patient person. Thank you for helping all of us idiots that can;t seem to install this seamlessly. Well here is my issue, I definately have a pc that can handle CS4, its actually been installed then uninstalled since I put win 7 in. I removed everything completely and have no trace of an adobe app. I used Win uninstaller in the control panel and thought that would be fine. Well when I try to install your version I get, "Session has dependencies that cannot be satisfied." What the F? I don't even know how to check log files. Can you help? THanx man!

justaguy2 (2010-04-14)

Outstanding, clear instructions, works like a charm! Thanks bro

Nice ul, thethingy! It has come to me that they (adobe) has released CS5 now. When will you upload it, or would you at all? ;)
Thanks again for great sharings!

 thethingy (2010-04-15)

^^ cs5 is released as beta just now the final version will be out in a few weeks and you will get it here;
http://thepiratebay.se/user/thethingy/
and it will be activated clean with no dirty patches or keygens

Iforgotmyname (2010-04-16)

hmmmm, well I have done everything told to do in your DLs. And for some reason it still wont install correctly. I've DLd plenty of torrents and know how to install, at least thought I knew how to install but for some reason your torrent is not agreeing with my PC. This is the error message I am getting....
Suite Shared Configuration CS4
Error:
Error 1603. Error 1402.Could not open key: Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
Everything is, erased properly, no traces of CS4, not connected to the internet, kind at a loss for questions really. What now.com....just wait for CS5??? :)

Iforgotmyname (2010-04-16)

Ohh yeah, and have even Downloaded numerous times to make sure there were no errors in the process...I wish I was smart :(

M.Q (2010-04-16)

***thethingy***
You're a genius!!
Thank u, not only for this amazing upload, but for your thorough instructions..
I'm using W7 ultimate x86, and not one glitch--except with Encore, which is "incompatible with this version of Windows," according to a pop-up from Windows. But it gave me 2 options, other than cancel, "Check for solutions online" or "Run program."
I left it alone, but should I go ahead and check online for solutions and update it from microsoft?
Thanks once again =)

 thethingy (2010-04-16)

Iforgotmyname, got his issue fixed via pm; installed to new user account then deleted new user account
M.Q , let it check for soloutions, it will fix it for you i think the issue is a microsoft component that needs an update, its safe to do and wont affect adobe activation

M.Q (2010-04-16)

So I did check online for solutions, and this is all I got
"Contact Adobe Systems for support
Your version of Adobe Encore CS4 isn't compatible with this version of Windows."
Also, if I delete Adobe's Updater folder, would that end all attempts to update?
Located in

 thethingy (2010-04-17)

M.Q, im using 7 ult x86 and its perfict, some ms software conflics with this such as office 2007, sql server, visual studio 2005 but windows action centre usually sorts it out for you, if you have ccleaner you can get a text file with your installed apps and pm me it and i can check with adobe support if you like

DaigoDJM (2010-04-17)

Nicely Done! Thaanks!

Incredible torrent. Make sure directions are followed exactly and works fine.
Cpl questions : Step 9 - "Go to EDIT,PREFRENCES,GENERAL & UNCHECK AUTO UPDATE BOX" Didn't see this option in ANY program I opened, was I possibly looking in the wrong place(s) (within each program, right?)?
Also, Photoshop prompts an install for graphics card acceleration drivers and directs to Is this something I can do safely?
Thank you for this magnificent torrent!

 thethingy (2010-04-24)

install the driver if you want, nothing bad will happen.

Hi Thingy,
Downloaded and everything seems to be working fine. Thanks a million, dude !
However, just got a nagging msg that keeps appearing at the tool bar, i.e.
"Interactive services dialog detection
Program(s) of devices(s) requesting attention.
Message title: document.pdf - Adobe Acrobat Pro
Program path: C:\Program
Received: Today, 27 April, 2010, 936 minutes ago
This problem happens because of partial incompatibility with Windows Vista. Please contact the program of device manufacturer(s) for more information."
Just wondering if there's anything that I can do to solve this issue ? Would greatly appreciate if you can spare some time to help me out here.
Thanks again !!

 thethingy (2010-04-28)

update windows, its been a while since ive used vista but 7 has the problem reports and soloutions thing in action centre that gets the specific updates for you vista has something similar

sabretooth1 (2010-04-28)

first of all thank you big time, this was great. however i have a problem which i can't solve:
Every time I load an of the CS4 apps I receive the following error:
Licensing for this product has stopped working. Error: 130:3
It then asks me to restart computer but that doesn't solve it. Asks me to contact Adobe..obviously not going to do that either.
Im running Windows 7. My system is very stable.
This is an odd message what do you suggest? It's been working fine for at least 6 months. Then this out of the blue? any help greatly appreciated. Cheers.

Some files could not be created.
Please close all applications, reboot Windows, and restart this installation.
help? this is the third time i've tried installing.

pickles6969 (2010-05-05)

firstly-the thingy, thanks for taking the time+effort to do this-great work.
can i ask is this cs4 the full version(ie not downloaded from adobe website) only reason i ask is that the adobe website version doesn't contain some codecs that need liscensing eg MPEG-4. if some1 who has this cs installed coould open up premiere pro and let me know what sequence preset options there are, specifically is there AVCHD and HDV options? thanks

DaHakenHacker (2010-05-06)

i dont see why you neet to edit the hosts file. I installed Adobe CS4 Master Collection nearly 4 months ago and only used the amtlib.dll and has worked perfectly. so why should one need to edit the Hosts file??

 thethingy (2010-05-06)

DaHakenHacker, it blocks the activation service, adobe activation is not that good so your one has stayed activated but its best to edit the hosts

baka1800 (2010-05-06)

Thanks for the upload!
When I have downloaded everything, and use the 1st file to "auto" unrar everything I have a message after a while that says some files are missing/corrupt (or something like that).
Is there anything I can do about this? Thanks!

samatirut (2010-05-08)

Unfortunately Encore doesn't work in Win7! :((( There are compatibility problems and the program always crashes, so although I can't use but I'm seeding them anyway.

transpar3nt (2010-05-09)

Ohehprod (2010-05-13)

Hello the thingy,
everything went fine, but After Effects asks for a serial everytime I load it up, which is fine, because I can just enter any serial in the instructions and it'll open.
But, in Photoshop and Premiere I keep getting the 130:3 Error.
I followed all instructions with the tool kit and everything you say to do with this error twice, and I'm still getting this error, except after the second time premiere will work but around 5 - 10 minutes into working with it the 130:3 error will come. Are you sure this works?
Please get back to me asap.
I'm running Vista and installing premiere, After effects and Photoshop. Thanks!!!

Can wait til its done dl. I have tried several versions on win 7 with no luck

This has finished downloading, and looks to be great. How will I know when you've released an update for this torrent? Also, I followed the instructions with regards to unchecking the auto-update box, however, that box is only there in one application, and even after that, the adobe updater still ran!
I'm presuming it's not safe to run the updater, if it isn't, could you be so kind as to tell me how to completely stop the updater running?
Thank you in advance for answering my queries, very good torrent, good DL speed, everything's working fine as far as I can see.

 thethingy (2010-06-22)

Saberhagen19243, run the updater its OK :)

painiskool32 (2010-06-29)

Thank thethingy for the upload! But when I try to install I get stuck at 70-80% on System Profile checking. It says istall cannot be complete contact adobe or something like that.

SLeePYG86 (2010-06-30)

Is it necessary to run the updates included with this? I'm doing now as I type, but I was just wanting to know if it's needed, just to save time. And are they major updates? Thanks for this!

Kiddtastic (2010-07-04)

Hey hun.
I downloaded this some time ago, and finally decided to actually istall it.
I've done everything in order as told in the description, but now I'm stuck on updates.
the (8) Creativeserviceinfrastructure1 update tells me that it can't install. The highest 2 of 4 listed things there are already installed, but the lower 2 isn't. Should I skip this update, or should I fix anything?

Hi there thethingy i have downloaded this and followed all instructions upto the activation blocker when i use it run it as admin and it does its thing then i go to hosts file and there is nothing in there with the adobe.com things
what is the problem
i am running windows 7 ultimate 32 bit

pauanui (2010-09-02)

hi,
i installed and everything is working great.
i'm pretty sure i turned off all updates, but..!
today i got the screen that says Windows needs to be re-activated because major changes have occurred in the hardware - would this be something to do with the install?
if so, is it ok for me to reactivate windows?
...thoughts?
thanks

deo44 (2010-09-08)

anyone else having trouble finding and downloading the toolkit for a clean install that thethingy recommends?Link seems gone for the torrent.Thanks thethingy appreciate the work you put into your downloads.

droog76 (2010-09-24)

running windows 7 ultimate 32 bit
did exactly what the instructions said and i keep getting Error: 130:3.can you help me out?

INDIAN711 (2010-10-07)

Hi thethingy, just have to say u are the best, the absolute king of piratebay, all of your torrents are always 100% clean and fully functional. Only thing with this one is, i always get a message after about 20 seconds of installing saying that a file is corrupt and i have to download again. What should i do?

ranger275 (2010-10-11)

Is there anyway to choose what programs you want to install...for instance I only need photoshop, indesign, illustrator, reader, acrobat...will installation allow me to choose?

itakepics (2010-10-24)

I followed all the directions, almost all of the software installed fine, there was a couple that did not install. But when I run the updates as the directions said I end up getting an error on everyone of them saying can not install.
Any idea what I could be doing wrong

Magnificenthoek (2010-10-26)

@thethingy,you are the Coolest Dude Alive! Thank you very much for your work.
I'm having issues installing this and I hope someone could help me out. I had Photoshop CS5 and I tried to install Premier Pro cs4 but I couldn't have both on my computer. so I decided to install this Suite. but I uninstall all the adobe apps without Deactivating them.
When I try to install an error comes up saying

SYSTEM CHECK
Critical errors were found in the setup for Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection:
Session has dependencies that cannot be satisfied
I'm using 32bit xp. Hope someone could help. Thanks

bjc0115d1 (2010-11-03)

been working on this for hrs, but finally got it working, now I can go sleep for afew hrs before my 8 am class. Remember PPL, READ The directions! awesome work Thethingy!

acoop3 (2010-12-08)

I'm new to torrents and this may be a dumb question. Where are the direction, are they in the download? Also, when I click the download button, it saves a very small file to my computer that won't open. What am I doing wrong?

acoop3 (2010-12-10)

found it! Now if I can figure out the rest of this!

man89yak (2011-02-08)

Hey thingy..whenever i try to install this it checks my system and says

The minimum system requirements listed below are needed to run Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection and are not
met:
Windows XP Service Pack 3 and greater
Windows Vista Service Pack 1 and greater
Please upgrade or adjust your system to meet these requirements

This despite the fact that i have Vista Ultimate installed and have been using many CS4 apps glitchlessly on it for the past couple of years.
I even re-partitioned and re-formatted my disk using Seagate disk wizard and re-installed Vista Ultimate. But it still wont install
Any suggestions????

man89yak (2011-02-08)

I even tried many of your toolkit's suggestions. But it is still a no go.

man89yak (2011-02-09)

ok....vista sp2 did it. thanx dude...keep up the good work. regards from india

bizfamo (2011-02-13)

Thethingy - I installed this on windows 7 upgrade from vista 64bit and all worked perfectly for quite awhile. Then a few months ago i got a virus and malware bites detected the crack as a problem, so like an idiot I quarantined it. Then realized my stupidity and restored it. It worked fine for a little while, then gave me licensing issues. So I uninstalled and tried to reinstall and the setup wont finish. So after hours of fiddling with it and trying to remove every possible adobe program multiple ways, i reformatted my computer.
Now, i have tried to install the program with nothing else on the computer and I still cant successfully complete the initial setup. I have no idea why it wont run, especially since there are no adobe programs what so ever. Please help. I will say I used someone elses instructions posted on btjunkie, but I can't seem to find the torrent on btjunkie anymore. I seem to remember something having to be mounted but i dont see that in your instructions anywhere.

thethingy I did everything you said and it is denying the .dll file when I try to copy it in the files can you help?

Duarek (2011-10-05)

I have a question...I just recently installed this torrent, which worked perfectly and is awesome, but I'm wondering how to update adobe Air, so i can use the Adobe Media player and pandora.

Valjr (2011-11-14)

I had this installed successfully. But when I used it, my keyboard is not working properly with it. Seems like my keyboard is jammed. Controls like zoom in (CTRL +) or Zoom out (CTRL -) has been replaced. When using type tool, letters "Z" and "Y" are switched.
Sure thing help will come from the coolest dude here thethingy. TIA!

Valjr (2011-11-14)

Installed it perfectly. But there seemed to be problems with my keyboard. Its not working properly. Simple commands like zoom in or out (ctrl + or ctrl -) are not there, replaced by another command. Using type tool, letters "Y" and "Z" have switched.
Whats wrong with this copy? thethingy can you help me?

urah00 (2013-05-16)

THIS TORRET IS BROKEN...thingy...I know its old and u prob wont see this but some of us actually still use this sw suite. unfortunately every folder has a broken file and/or broken CRC. I'm familiar with your particular method and have installed other uploads on other machines flawlessly (ah, thank you). Alas, no CS4 unless this is fixed. and yes, I've tried other links and none even come close to your level of solidity.
