Question

License is no longer working Error - 150:30 - CS4

I have seen this question here but have not seen a solution.  I recently (grudgingly) upgraded to Lion 10.7

Now all my CS4 applications won't opne and give me this error that the license is no longer working!  I have gone through all the fixes that Adobe recommends and nothing works.  The only thing I have not done is uninstall everything and reinstall - I am really afraid to do that.

Has anyone found a solution to this?  I am really upset and depend on Dreamweaver and Photoshop for my work!

    Did you use the Licensing Repair Tool?

    Yes, two problems here:

    First the application launch that they tell you to drag into the terminal has a line through it that means it is not compatibel with Lion

    Second, I did it anyway - followed their exact instructions in the terminal and got error messages that the syntax was wrong - when I tried removing the space after sudo python that Adobe said you needed, it still didbn't work.  I am going crazy with this.  I hate adobe!!!

    I assume it is good with Lion?  Adobe is no longer selling CS5.5 thought because 6 is about to come out - but I think the trial is still there

    CS5.5 is still there for trial and purchase (CS6 is only pre-order at the moment).

    The only Dreamweaver issues with OSX Lion listed on Adobe's website relate to CS4

    CS5.5 works fine with Lion (though not officially listed as being suppported).

    CS6 offically supports Lion

    I am downloading the trial now.  What I really need is the Web Premium suite.  I don't see it for sale at Adobe's site at all - I searched pretty extensively.  Every link takes you to CS6 - that's why I was thinking of buying it from amazon.
