8.0.2 Won’t Install
So I got my gorgeous 8 core and installed all the memory, and then after effects cs3 fresh and new.
Then went to Adobe site and downloaded 8.0.2.
And it just won’t install. I’ve tried several times with new downloads each time.
A couple of times AE just crashed the computer. Not just AE. The whole thing. No force quit possible. Total freeze. Dumped all prefs and tried again. 8.0.2 update (RIBSWrapper) just hangs and hangs and hangs. It’s been over an hour. I think it’s safe to say it’s not gonna work.Any suggestions? Please?
I’ll try re-installing AE, meanwhile. After first de-activating this one so it doesn’t fail to install next time.I shoulda done a migration assistant thing, but I’ve been warned you want it all clean and fresh with AE.

Okay. I see others have had this problem.
This is what worked for me.
I uninstalled CS3 and got rid of all traces of it.
Easy to do since there was nothing but system files and Apple apps on the new mac pro.
Then I installed it again.
BUT I DIDN’T OPEN IT. I really think that was what changed everything.
I went to the Adobe downloads and downloaded 8.0.2.
This time it installed.
Then I opened it.
Everything worked.
It knew I had 8 cores when I went to the multi processing pref.
It knew I had open GL when I went to the previews pref. (we’ll see how that works).
I’m happy. Tra la. -
Hello-
“I uninstalled CS3 and got rid of all traces of it. “
I am having issues installing AE8 (CS3) because it claims it conflicts with another copy of AE (a previous attempt at instalation). How can I erase all traces of AE? I’ve tried AppZapper and no luck…
