mazin Posted October 31, 2004 Author Share Posted October 31, 2004 You're supposed to slipstream it as follows. However, I haven't tested the slipstreamed version myself. So, you test it!Create a new folder anywhere on your hard disk. I'll assume you name it ABC. Put the following files inside ABC:1- acdseepowerpack.exe2- Update47.msp (MSP renamed)3- ACDSee.cmdNow, run ACDSee.cmd! After ACDSee.cmd exits, ACDSee folder is created in the root of your system drive. Delete ABC, as it's no longer needed.To install, run ...\ACDSee\ACDSee.msi as described in my first post.cls@echo offECHO Creating AIPstart /wait acdseepowerpack.exe /A /S /V"/QB TARGETDIR=%systemdrive%\ACDSee"ECHO Patching AIPcopy Update47.msp %systemdrive%\ACDSeestart /wait msiexec /p %systemdrive%\ACDSee\Update47.msp /a "%systemdrive%\ACDSee\ACDSee 7.0 PowerPack.msi" /QBdel %systemdrive%\ACDSee\Update47.mspren "%systemdrive%\ACDSee\ACDSee 7.0 PowerPack.msi" ACDSee.msiEXITThe first ECHO creates Administrative Installation Point out of acdseepowerpack.exe!The second ECHO patches the AIP!

SibTiger Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 @Mazin... your amazing! I successfully slipstreamed the update, and it installs perfectly on a VM.Now, a slightly off-topic problem. On my physical computer, I no longer can open ACD Photo Editor 3.1. When I try to open it, I get a brief "hourglass" mouse pointer, then nothing. I've uninstalled ACDSee, deleted all "ACD" references from the registry, deleted all ACDSee folders in "Documents and Settings" and then reinstalled. But the problem continues. The problem can't be with my install source because it works fine on the VM.Any idea how to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoffeeFiend Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Your problem is his the partial color management information like I had mentionned previously (looks like he updated his posts to reflect that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinout Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 How about this?Don't even bother taking the MSI from the "Downloaded Installations" directoryJust execute:START "" /WAIT "acdseepowerpack.exe" /S /V"/qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress" or whatever command-line options you want to pass to the MSI.And I agree, the whole deal with slipstreaming the updates isnt necessary, just download the current acdseepowerpack.exe - In fact, what I do for a lot of applications that use the same filenames for every version (acdseepowerpack.exe, aawsepersonal.exe & defs.ref, GoogleToolbarInstaller.exe, etc) is place a batch file named "UPDATE.BAT" in the same directory as the program (you need to have wget installed on your system and in your PATH. The batch file does this:Example: @PUSHD "%~dp0"WGET --timestamping "http://files.acdsystems.com/english/downloads/acdsite/acdseepowerpack.exe"That will change the current directory to the path where the batch file is located and then wget the latest version, the "--timestamping" option is for "don't re-retrieve files unless newer than local."This simplifies the task of updating some of your applications before you burn a fresh install CD.And if you want to get even fancier, make a batch file UPDATEALL.BAT in the directory above all of your applications, in my case it is in my $OEM$ directory - which contains this:@PUSHD "%~dp0" & ECHO OFFFOR /F "tokens=*" %%x IN ('DIR /A /B /S "UPDATE.BAT"') DO @"%%x"This batch will look through each directory and execute the UPDATE.BAT if its found, so to update all of your programs you just click a single batch file.

pinout Posted December 17, 2004 Share Posted December 17, 2004 I've read this entire thread and I don't understand what registry setting to change to make it so the activation prompt doesnt pop up. Is there even a way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
