When you purchase a volume license for Adobe Creative Suite 3, Adobe provides an option that allows you to run a silent installation (that is, an installation with preselected options and no interface) on Windows or Mac OS X. In a silent installation, a custom installer runs the installers for each. Perhaps you can help me.

When you purchase a volume license for Adobe Creative Suite 3, Adobe provides an option that allows you to run a silent installation (that is, an installation with preselected options and no interface) on Windows or Mac OS X. In a silent installation, a custom installer runs the installers for each product in the suite by using command-line installation tools. Silent installations are also used as basis for enterprise deployment of Creative Suite 3.
Configuring a silent installation consists of configuring the appropriate XML installer files. Then installation can be begun using a command line.
By default, a silent installation installs all components of Creative Suite 3 in the default location. The interface settings will be the defaults. So, when the first Creative Suite application is launched, the user will be prompted to supply a serial number, accept the End-User License Agreement (EULA) and enter registration information. Also, the Adobe Update Manager will automatically check for available updates.
Creative Suite 3 uses XML files to configure these behaviors: application.xml.override, install.xml and uninstall.xml. For complete details on how to configure these files, see the white paper listed below in 'Complete deployment information.'
- application.xml.override
This file configures the interface elements that appear during the first launch of a Creative Suite 3 application. You will need to create this file and place it in the main 'driver' payload folder. - install.xml and uninstall.xml
These files control which components of Creative Suite are installed and uninstalled, respectively. You can modify these file to remove individual component 'payloads'. The same modifications need to be made to both files. Default versions of these files can be found in the 'deployment' folder found in the folder which contains the suite setup programs.
Note: You can use the --record=1 option from setup.exe to create your own install.xml and remove.xml file.
A silent installation on Windows started by running setup.exe through a command line. This should be done as administrator. Use the following command line from the directory where setup.exe is.
setup --mode=silent --deploymentFile='path to installer file'
Replace path to installer file with the full path to the custom install.xml or uninstall.xml that you created.
A silent installation on Macintosh started by running the setup executable as super user through a command line. Use the following command line from the directory where setup is.
sudo Setup.app/Contents/MacOS/Setup --mode=silent --deploymentFile='path to installer file'
Replace path to installer file with the full path to the custom install.xml or uninstall.xml file that you created.
Complete information on configuring a silent installation for network deployment can be found in the Enterprise Deployment Options for Adobe Creative Suite 3 Editions and Components white paper at www.adobe.com/support/deployment/cs3_deployment.pdf.
This paper covers silent installation of Adobe Creative Suite 3, as well as individually-purchased Creative Suite 3 applications, by command line or using deployment tools such as Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) and Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS). Also included are detailed instructions on modifying the XML installer files listed above.
Use one or more of the following steps to troubleshoot silent installations:
Many Creative Suite 3 deployments fail because of typos, formatting issues or other issues with the application.xml.override file. Follow the example below:

Common mistakes include:
Ps-adobe-3.0 Apl Dsc Encoding Utf8
- Case sensitive words being all lower case, or all upper case (all strings, and tags in XML are case sensitive)
- Not using the Format > Make Plain Text option in TextEdit (Mac only - by default TextEdit saves as RTF format)
- Make sure that the file is called application.xml.override and has no extensions (use get info, or file properties to verify)
- application.xml.override file not located in the proper location (check the Setup.xml file in the Payloads folder to find the location of the driver folder)
2. Find specific error messages in the log files.
Most errors that occur during a silent installation will appear in the installation logs. For details on how to find and read these files, see, 'Find and read installation logs for Creative Suite 3' (TechNote kb400593). These error messages might indicate what you need to do to solve the issue, or you can search on these errors in the Adobe knowledgebase at www.adobe.com/support/.
If a standard (non-silent) installation does not produce an issue, then there may be an issue with one of the custom installer files. Make sure the installer files have no typos and that the information in the tags (such as serial number) are correct.
If the error does occur in a standard installation, the error messages given may have additional information, or you can search for those error messages in Adobe's knowledge base.
Various applications and processes can conflict with the installation of Creative Suite 3. While a standard installation will display a list of conflicting processes during the installation process, a silent install will fail and put an error message in the installation log.
The Adobe DNG Converter enables you to easily convert camera-specific raw files from supported cameras to a more universal DNG raw file. Another benefit of using the DNG Converter is backward compatibility.
Note:
Adobe provides backwards compatibility for the latest cameras for use in older versions of Photoshop, Lightroom, Bridge, After Effects, and Photoshop Elements through the DNG Converter.

Custom:- Backward Version: DNG 1.1, DNG 1.3, or DNG 1.4 (default 1.4)
- Linear (demosaiced): The image data is stored in an interpolated ('demosaiced') format. This option is useful if a camera's particular mosaic pattern is not supported by a DNG reader. The default mosaic format maximizes the extent of data preserved. Mosaic image data can be converted to linear data, but the reverse is not possible.
- Uncompressed: No compression is applied to the raw image data.
Video | The advantages of the DNG file format
A raw file contains the 'raw' data captured by the digital camera sensor before it has been converted to JPEG or TIFF formats. Cameras that create JPEG or TIFF files process (and in the case of JPEG files, compress) the sensor data. When working with raw files, the file is not compressed or processed in the camera. Instead, software gives the user complete control over the conversion settings. For example, white balance is not applied to the raw file but is stored with the file so the software can default to the originally-intended setting. Other information contained in a DNG file includes standard EXIF metadata (just like in JPEG files), date, time, camera used, and camera settings.
Raw files offer the following benefits:
- Smaller files than uncompressed TIFF
- Does not have the artifacts of compressed JPEGs
- Many key camera parameters, such as white balance, can be modified even after the image is captured
- You have complete control over conversion settings rather than letting the camera decide
- Access to 16-bit data for greater detail and fidelity
- Flexibility of converting a single file using multiple conversion settings
Digital Negative (DNG) is an openly published raw file specification that stores the 'raw' pixel data captured by the digital camera sensor before it has been converted to JPEG or TIFF formats, along with standard EXIF metadata, date, time, camera used, and camera settings. This format is freely available for other software and hardware vendors to support.
Unlike most manufacturer-specific raw formats, the Digital Negative is an openly published specification that not only is supported by Adobe, but is also freely available for other software and hardware vendors to support. Consequently, it can be a safer file format to use for long-term archival purposes. Etho crack pack servers. Archiving your file as a digital negative eliminates worries that the raw file will no longer be readable once the camera format that created it becomes obsolete.
The Digital Negative specification allows for not only all of the pixel information stored in current raw formats, but also for all of the additional, proprietary metadata that many manufacturers include. The Adobe DNG Converter may, in some cases, ignore some of this proprietary metadata, and only include the basic information necessary for creating a high-quality image file. The original raw file, however, can also be embedded in the new DNG format to ensure that proprietary metadata from the manufacturer is not lost.
