Good Luck you may find it hard to get someone to help their human and will state CS3 is no longer supported.

However Adobe customer support is responsible to help with installation problems.   It a new download and not installing on you machine.    Before you call Download and run Adobe Cleaner if you have not done that then try installing again.  It when through the steps the last time you tried.

Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems

JJMack  and terris86415680

so i have followed your instructions

used 7zip to extract the files to  folder called Extracted files

opened the extracted files folder and in Adobe CS3 folder right clicked the setup exe

The install process asked for my license number which I inputted

It said it was installing disc 1 it ran for about 20 mins installing

then came up with the error message.

I have attached screen shots and snips so you can see what I did

If the serial number you put is the new  serial number given to you when you download the new packaged creative suit 3 collection installer you need Adobe help.  All I had was Photoshop CS3 and I had no problem installing it.  However I have uninstalled it.  I use CS6 and CC 2014 these days And also test CC 2018.

yes the serial number was the new one given when i downloaded the collection. Thanks for your help I would buy a new version but dont want topay monthly as dot use it often enough to warrant it thanks for your help. Over To Adobe for help


Did you ever get round to using 'Safe Mode' ?

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12376/windows-10-start-your-pc-in-safe-mode

This mode uses only a subset of Windows 10 functions and sometimes can avoid problems with things like file and registry permissions.

I expected the new Adobe download to install just like one big file but it seems they have retained a lot of the DVD features, in which case can you see anywhere a file called 'AutoRun' or AutoStart something like that which would normally be on a CD/DVD. If you can try double clicking it!

You mean Acrobat? That’s typical depending on your collection. Acrobat was always a separate SN and installer CD from the rest of the package.

yes i mean acrobat it has never been a separate serial number as it is part of the Master collection which only had one licence number for all in the collection

You need to get new serial numbers for your CS3 Suite and download new installers that do not require activation......  Adobe took down the CS3 Activation servers here is the link.

Activation or connection error when starting CS3 or Acrobat 8

That will start you here

Obtain a new serial number | CS3, CS4

Sounds as if your installation media is either corrupt or possibly just needs to be cleaned with a damp cloth, but I have a horrible feeling that even if you get it installed it will not activate because the server has been shut down. Do you know about this? If not take a look at this web page

Download Adobe Creative Suite 3 products

Adobe has made fresh versions of all it's CS3 applications so they do not need activation. To be honest I've never had the CS3 Master Suite but the procedure for the individual apps is to download the 'new' no activation version and use a newly issued serial number. You get the new serial from the page linked above by entering in your existing serial and then a download link to the app is providing-I can't test this as I don't have a serial but it's possible you will be able to download CS3 MS as a complete suite! I'm fairly sure Master Suites used just one serial rather than separate ones for each application and a MS serial doesn't work with a stand alone app so it would make sense for Adobe to provide a separate installer for the Master Suite, but you'll only find out by trying the link above.

If you want to try just replacement installation media. These are trials but can be made full with a serial

https://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html

It's a 3GB download but as I said above probably will not activate. So try the above first.

also when you try to install make sure you use 'Run as Admin' If you have a problem try running the install in 'Safe Mode'
