Hello All

I have Adobe Creative Suite CS5 Design Standard installed on my MacBook Air.  I have never had an issues with updates until this last round of updates.  Every time I try to update it through the Adobe Application Manager, all updates fail:

     - Adobe Bridge CS5 4.0.5 Update

     - Adobe Extension Manager CS5 5.0 Update

     - Adobe Illustrator CS5 15.0.2 Update

     - Adobe InDesign CS5 7.0.4 Update

     - Photoshop 12.0.4 update for Photoshop CS5

     - Photoshop Camera Raw 6.7

After checking the Forums, I followed some advice and downloaded the updates individually.  However, when I try to install them, they still fail with the following error message:

     "AdobePatchInstaller.app” can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash. Safari downloaded this file today at 7:49 AM from supportdownloads.adobe.com.

I have not found a solution for this on the forums.  Can anyone please advise?

there haven't been any updates to cs5 for years.  the last update is available here,  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

You may have missed it because I did mention that I downloaded the updates individually.  I downloaded them from that same link you referenced and this is the error message I receive.
