    Hey guys, I was running on battery power while updating photoshop CS5, when the computer died (battery drained completely). I was recalibrating the battery since I just installed Lion, but I thought when it was recharged the computer would startup where it left off. However it didn't, after it fully charged I powered it back on, and it started up like a cold boot, rather than coming out've hibernation. So now when I try to update CS5 to 12.0.4 it keeps failing, this is with the built in updater, and even when I downloaded the standalone update and tried to install that.
    "there was an error installing this update. please quit and try again later"
    the thing is I had like 4 updates, the first 3 installed fine, but it died while installing the 4th, and now it shows that one update, and it gives me that error when I try to install the update.

    you might have to uninstall it... and reinstall it...

    you might be better off asking on more official Adobe support, as there might be a config file or a locked file somewhere that can be changed... or who knows what.

    i couldn't get the adobe uninstaller to run, it gave me an error right away, so I just ran the installer again and am re-installing now.

    *EDIT*
    it works!
