Errors (DW050 DW063 DF027) installing Production Premium CS6 on Mac

I really don't want to return this to Adobe, but if I can't install it, it's realy useless.  Looking for some way to get it installed.  Does anyone have a procedure that is reliable on the Mac?

I've looked at the instructions and recommendations in the forums describing permissions and directories.

To get to a clean baseline, I cleaned out all previous instances of Adobe installations, applications, files and directories - there were several versions dating back to CS3.

Attempted to install Production Premium CS6.

Got the following screen from installer:

Summary text follows:

Exit Code: 6

This is not the answer for me - and for others.

There seems to be a problem with Production Premium CS6 Installation on Snow Leopard - Mac OS X 10.6.8.  Could someone at Adobe try this and/or report anecdotally that anyone has seen it work?

From a much more comprehensive thread describing the same issue at http://forums.adobe.com/message/5450038#5450038

All,

Some things I did (with failed installations after each step):

  • Executed the list of suggested "answer" fixes referenced in this thread
  • Completely uninstalled all Adobe products (including CS5 Master Collection and Acrobat X Pro - even the Flash Player)
  • Used Disk Utility to reset all privileges on the drive to its recommended state
  • Manually set privileges on virtually the entire disk to Read/Write/Execute for Everyone
  • Was on chat for 2 hours with Adobe Tech support - they took control of the machine and were trying similar things

I haven't returned the Suite yet and honestly, I would still like a workaround.

I just tried installing Production Premium CS6 onto a pristine 1 TB disk with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 (clean install with nothing but Apple on it), and got the same failure message.  To me, this is a clear case of a broken CS6 installer.  I would suggest it was sabotage, but for Hanlon's razor, "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."  It doesn't speak well of Adobe's quality control in any case.
