Hello all,

I had a hard drive failure and it took the only repair facility in town 3 damn weeks to get my MAC back to me.

The new drive now allows the computer to operate but everything else is jacked. I had two sets of applications and libraries etc etc...So, maybe that is what is keeping the Acrobat and Illutrator from my Adobe CS from installing?

Or is it that when I tried to verify and repair my permissions in disk utility, it tells me error -9997 - no valid packages?

This is oviously the same installer that worked fine on this computer originally and the the loaner laptop. Now Acrobat will not open - says cannot install and must quit when opening, and Illustrator closes upon opening.

I have run apple hardware test, tech tool deluxe, and what could from disk utility. All say fine except for the above mentioned error -9997.

I CLEANED the drive of every adobe preference, file, list and log and reinstalled to no avail.

What can I do?!
