I have been trying to install firefox but when l get to the setup type, firefox tells me to close firefox to proceed with installation, when l do it ask me if l want to cancel, l want firefox but l can't get it. tell me what to do next.

I am trying to install firefox and l can't get pass setup type on the type of setup whih is standard and then it tells me to close firefox so it can proceed with installation, when l do, it ask me do l want to cancel installation, if l say no then it tells me again to close firefox.

I want to make sure you're using the auto-update system, because that's the safest most reliable way to go, and it shouldn't appear in the download manager, so I lets make sure you're doing it right. <br/>
This is a screencast I made a couple of years ago. It refers to 3.5 and 3.6, but the steps are still the same: http://ilias.ca/screencasts/ISUHD45.mov
If that doesn't work, then maybe your Snow Leopard account doesn't have permission to update applications?

  • I have a new hp tower running windows 8.1 and have been trying to install the adobe reader.  The installer downloads (1meg) and I choose to run it but it just sits with an empty screen.  I've checked task manager and it takes up memory but does nothing.

    I have a new hp tower running windows 8.1 and have been trying to install the adobe reader.  The installer downloads (1meg) and I choose to run it but it just sits with an empty screen.  I've checked task manager and it takes up memory but does nothing.  After letting it run for 3-4 minutes I kill the task.  What can I do to get the reader installed on this machine?  I've tried using chrome, firefox and explorer and get the same results with each.

    Try the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

    Go back to that article, ignore the instructions for updating it wirelessly, scroll down, and follow those for updating it from iTunes on a computer.

    I have been trying to install window 7 operating system through booth camp assistant, i will finish all the stages for window to complete installation it will hook. the installation cannot be able to complete and i really install windows on it, please i need an assistance on how to go about it.

    Right now I have 6 different systems installed. Windows XP, 7, and 8 plus Linux Mint, Commodore, and OS X Snow Leopard (for old times sake), all running on Mountain Lion.
    I recommend reading the user manual as it greatly helps getting through the steps, however an intuitive person should pick it up fairly easily.
    Thanks to BobTheFisherman for the link.
    There are other ways to get Windows on a Mac but I'm a big fan of open-source software.
    Give it a try. You might like it or it may not be your cup of tea.

    This should get your itunes store connection working.
    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • HT4623 I have been trying to install my music and pictures to my Iphone 4s but it is giving me an errror message that I don't have enough access privilages for this operation. Why?

    I am wondering why that I can not add my music and photos from itunes to my I phone 4s. I have been given this message : You don't have enough access privilages for this operation.

    If your iPad has a passcode lock, have you tried unlocking the iPad before attempting to sync it with iTunes?
    Do you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your Windows PC?

  • I have been trying to install Photoshop CS2 but it fails, why?

    It is always at the same loading point, "control packet" and then it crashes, why?
    I got the idea from here -> Grab Photoshop and CS2 For Absolutely Free Right Here And it is not a virus, promise
    Anyway, I have installed Photoshop CS2 on my other computer so it could be that reason, but I don't think so.
    Please help

    First off, the article you link to is WRONG. Adobe have absolutely NOT made CS2 "free" - the replacement download is only legally available to customers who already owned a copy of the CS2 applications and couldn't reinstall them because the activation servers were closed down. If you don't have a genuine paid-for license for CS2 from back in the day, you are not allowed to use it. Period.
    Also, CS2 is old. It's not designed to run on modern operating systems.

  • I have been trying to install the new iTunes, and i get an error that a program could not be run.

    I have an old version of iTunes and require the new version to connect my IPod. A program can not be run and the installation stops. I have no idea what program or what is required to run it. Please Help.

    That would be my first guess.  You might be trying to install the 32 bit version of the program.
    Update the thread with more info on your apple software etc if its a 64 bit install you're trying to perform.

  • Hello, I have been trying to install iTunes, yet I am getting this error.

    This is the error. http://gyazo.com/c65f0edd6dbb71276774d3879ebc1351 Most likely with Visual C++ Redist. I've cleared my registry, I even uninstalled and re-installed iTunes.

    Nevermind, iTunes 10.5 was the problem. Like iTunes itself anyway.

  • I have been trying to install addons (Adobe PDF Reader & Flash) they both download but WILL NOT RUN!

    I upgraded to Firefox 8.0.1 and it didn't help at all!
    Will not auto or manual install.

  • TS5376 I have been trying to install Itunes for the past 1.5 days without success.  The method outlined here did not work and gave me the same error messages as before  Runtime error R6034 and  also error 7

    I tried the latest Apple fix to resolve the installation issues of iTunes 11.1.4 and had no success at all.  This was the fix that asked you to remove .dll files and place them on the desktop before unistalling and reinstalling iTunes.  I followed the procedure exactly and obtained the same results as before.
    Namely,
    Runtime Error: R6034 -An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly
    iTunes was not installed correctly.  Error 7.
    At this point, after spending 1.5 days attempting to install iTunes I am giving up.  Hopefully, someone will come up with a fix that really works and I will install it then.

    Hi
    I had the same problem on my PC's with Win 7 and Win XP.
    I solved it this way:
    - De-install iTunes, best with a special tool, like, for example "Your Uninstaller" from Ursoft. Any other un-installer will do the job, provided it cleans the registry of traces from iTunes
    - De-install "Apple Mobile Device Support". This seems to be the culprit. It is a sub-program of iTunes. But if you just de-install iTunes this sub-program stays in your PC. If you still have it on your PC and you try to update to 11.1.4, it will cause these problems.
    - De-install also "Apple Application Support", but I am not sure it is really necessary, but de-installing does no harm, since it will be re-installed automatically.
    - De-install also "Apple Software Support", but I am not sure it is really necessary, but de-installing does no harm, since it will be re-installed automatically.
    - Re-start your PC
    - Download the latest version of iTunes from the Apple webpage and install it.
    For me this worked on both of my PC's.

  • I just got this damaged ipod and have been trying to install it for the last 4 hrs! the person i got it from made no mention of a code and i can't install it to get in it! getting crabby!  :(

    i downloaded itunes, tried resetting it but that's not workin for me either! please help if you can!  gettin' crabbier by the minute!
    my computer claims that it cannot install the device(doesn't recognize it). please help!

    Are yo getting any error message?
    Without knowing that all I can suggest is:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
