I’ve been reading about this problem since I just got bit by it. My Photoshop CS has been running smoothly for a couple of years. However a couple of days ago it unexpectedly started complaining that I needed Administrator privileges for Adobe Activation to work. Of course I have Administrator privileges. The error simply closed Photoshop without recourse to reactivate the product.
My system is installed in a RAID 5 configuration but I haven’t been able to find the RAID patch on Adobe’s site. Has it been removed?
Adobe support has not been helpful since they say my only option is to reformat the RAID array and reinstall Windows. However they can’t warranty that the problem won’t return latter. They say I have to reinstall Windows and Photoshop in a single drive configuration!!!!!!!!
I’ve since found out that Adobe Activation writes information to some protected disk sectors (which it shouldn’t write to!!!!) and this causes problems with soma RAID configurations. Since the problem also exists with CS2 upgrading is not an option and it tells us that Adobe hasn’t addressed the problem (they probably blame the RAID manufacturers) and probably will not address it in CS3 either.
Can someone please point me to a repository where I could find that RAID patch or send a copy to me, please…..
Thanks.
