Labview installation - not compatible directory

I have problem with installing LabVIEW 2014 64bit on my Windows 8.1 Proffesional 64 bit machine.
Story:
I downloaded LabVIEW 2014 and installed it only to find out its 32bit version. I wandted 64bit version so when i found it i downloaded it. Then i used windows control panel and add and remove features to uninstall LabView 2014 32bit (when i clicked LabView in add/remove features a window opened where i could select, fix/remove and something else, i picked remove and then selected all parts of LabView). After that i was asked to reboot my computer. I did it.
Then i wanted to install LabVIEW 2014 64bit in same directory where i had previous version installed (which is now completley empty). But when i chose it during instalation it tells me:
"An incompatible product is already installed in that directory, please select other directory"
How is there supposed to be anything installed there if i removed everything? The folder is empty.
I understand something like that happend IF I would remove files manually but NO. I used OFFICIAL uninstaller, i didnt do anything on my own. Yet it "remembers" old installation and wont let me install other version.

Under Windows 64 bit 64 bit applications get installed into C:/Program Files/<Company>/etc but 32 bit applications get installed into C:/Program Files (x86)/<Company>/etc.
Windows will prevent you to install a 64 bit application into C:/Program Files (x86) so that is probably where your problem comes from.
As to the other problem the most easy solution might be to install some virtualization software like VirtualBox and install Windows in there and then LabVIEW. That gives you a system where you can run LabVIEW until your current system is fixed.

Installer not Compatible

Aside from the fact that my E2 will not power up using the power button (I have to press the reset button on the back to power up), when I do power it up I get a message: "Not Compatible: This installer is not compatible with your device. Please contact the manufacturer for a compatible installer." I click OK, and then get a follow-on message: "Complete: You may now delete the installer". I click OK and then into the system ... For two or three minutes, when the E2 powers itself off.
Any thoughts on what I should do to correct this issue? Help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Palm Forums,
Normally I would recommend a hard reset on your device. For the software error your getting. But you also have a power button issue and in order to do a hard reset you would need to use the power button. At this point you would need to have your device either repaired or replaced. You can call in to 813-313-4913.
If you have more questions please post back.

Hi, i have problem updating my 8GB iphone4(IOS 5.0) to IOS 6.1.3 .after i adress the update file downloaded in the directory, itunes says "the firmware is not compatible"

first i used the itunes method of updating, but it keeped showing error 9006. then i read somewhere on the internet that downloading the update solitary and placing it in this directory will solve the problem:
(on windows: user/AppData/Roaming/apple computer/itunes/iphone software update)
but after that when i open the itunes, instead of automatically detecting the update (to which i was promised on all the stuff i read about error 9006) it just doesnt do anything. and when i hold SHIFT and click RESTORE, it just says: "the iphone could not be restored because the firmware file is not compatible"
i really appreciate it if someone would help me...:)thanks

Just to confirm is your iPhone jailbroken?. Now in terms of error 9006 in the article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694 it says this:
Errors related to third-party security software
Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 1000, 9006
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or phobos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
Restore your device while connected to a different network.
Restore using a different computer.

Installation of Moonlight plugin fail on Firefox 6.0.2 because it is not compatible. When it will be compatible?

I tried to install Moonlight plugin version 3.9.9 (4 preview) on the latest version of Firefox. Error message is: "Novell Moonlight could not be installed because it is not compatible with with Firefox 6.0.2".
There isn't any versions of Moonlight that can be installed on Firefox 6.0.2.
Moonlight plugin worked very well with previous versions of Firefex.
Is it correct?
When Firefox 6.0.2 will become compatible with Moonlight plugin (or vice-versa)?

Installation of Moonlight plugin fail on Firefox 7.0.1 because it is not compatible.
Found this, worked for me
I found an other way: download the compatibility Reporter addon. this addon makes firefox to ignore the compatibility of the addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/?src=api

Hi Shada this can happen if you are including additional installers to your installer for example DAQmx. When you are doing this the installer has to include other files like MAX (Measuremente and Automation Explorer). Probably when you installed Vision Builder it updated MAX, so when your installer is trying to Include MAX, its asking for the source where it was installed in your computer in this case Vision Builder.
Here you can cache the information so its not asked again, or you can download a newer version fo DAQmx, so it will update MAX and change de dependecy.

LabVIEW Installer is not writing to the registry

I have a LabVIEW installer with the following Registry page in it and it does not write the values I have requested to the registry on Windows Server 2008 R2. Any clues that anyone can give me to assist.
Note: The [INSTALLDIR] variable is a valid command.

Hi Cbauer,
You didn't mention which bitness of LabVIEW 2009 you were using, but I'd guess 32-bit? If so, just a sanity check that you are looking at the 32-bit registry location on Server 2008 R2?
Assuming you're using 32-bit LabVIEW, then it is going to create a 32-bit installer. The 32-bit installer can only write to the 32-bit registry. So though you are writing to HKLM\Software\Summitek (which is a 64-bit registry location), Windows redirects the key creation to HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Summitek (which is the 32-bit location). Look at that location to see if your key is there.
This isn't actually a problem, as if your 32-bit LabVIEW application tries to open HKLM\Software\Summitek - it too will be automatically redirected to the "Wow6432Node" location. So in short, because of Window's automatic redirection, it's something you don't usually need to worry about.
Regards,

What is "it"?
There are many things that affect the future development of LabVIEW, starting with NI management, all the smart people in LabVIEW development, the economy, the LabVIEW users, etc.
If you are worried about the increasing size of the distribution, the good news is that the cost of data storage and data transmission has dropped much more dramatically. Even though newer versions are bigger due to great and welcome new features, the improvements in infrastructure have actually made the distribution and storage significantly easier over the years and will continue to do so. Trust me!
Nobody wants to go back to a LabVIEW version that fits on a floppy disk!

Nope, it's still says it's not compatible with my device. This is from the Google Play Store in my desktop web browser, as well as Google Play Store Android app. I tried clearing the Play Store cache as well but it did not help.

Old Bookmarks are not compatible with Firefox version 20+

Background Information:
I use the old client version 3.6 as there's an old utility addon that the author stopped updating and will not work with the newer revisions. Despite disabling the update feature both in about:config and in preferences, the browser still eventually updates (Originally I was using 3.4, and would prefer to use that, but no matter how much I try I can no longer roll it back from 3.6 to 3.4 even if I reinstall using a 3.4 installer). As a result I've had a habit of keeping a copy of my firefox directory in case it updates itself again without asking, which it has. This might help you guys out in answering the countless people who have lost their bookmarks due to the upgrades released this year, and will hopefully someone to investigate and release a patch/utility to fix the issue.
Issue:
I have verified that the newest clients from at least version 20 and onwards, are not compatible with the older bookmark JSON files. People who have been upgraded to the latest revision not only lose their bookmarks, but CANNOT restore them either, as Firefox will only return the error message: "Unable to Process the Backup File".
I have confirmed that the files themselves are perfectly intact with no sign of corruption, and are as intended. They restore ok to older browser revisions (In my case specifically 3.6), but will not restore to the newer client revisions. This is not a fault with the bookmark backups, but with the newer clients (I'm guessing they changed the way they store the information in the JSONs at some point. I note in the code for the JSONs that GUID was never used in the older revisions, but it is in the newer revisions. Perhaps this is causing an incompatibility issue? You just need to adjust the client so that it looks for the GUID and if none can be found to ignore it rather than decide the file is corrupt.

Solution?
Well in my case I had a backup copy of the old revision directory. To restore I opened the copy, and exported the bookmarks as an HTML, which I restored in the newer client. If you do not have a copy of the old client, the best thing would be to try and reinstall an older revision of the client and either make a copy of the program folder and use another copy of that so you can use both the new and old clients and not worry about the loss of an older revision since you'll always have 2 copies of the old client (One you're using, one you use to restore if it upgrades). Or you export the bookmarks as an HTML, then upgrade the client to the newest and import the HTML instead of the JSON files.
Please investigate and create an easier solution to a silly incompatibility issue. ^_^

This happens if you create a backup and forget to add the file extension manually when Firefox didn't add it automatically or you may have removed it when modifying the suggested name.

Downloaded 3.6.15 but get an error when trying to launch Platform version 1.9.2.15 is not compatible with minVersion = 1.9.2.13 max Version = 1.9.2.13

I downloaded and installed update 3.6.15 when I try to launch firefox I get a XULRunner error
Platform Version '1.9.2.15 is not compatible with minVersion >= '1.9.2.13' maxVersion <='1.9.2.13'
How can I fix this?

# Delete the files and folders in the Firefox installation directory, default location is C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
# Re-install Firefox
This method will not remove your Firefox user data such as bookmarks and passwords, those are stored elsewhere in your profile folder, and will be used when you re-install Firefox.

Error: xulrunner version 1.9.2.1o not compatible with firefox 3.6.12 min/maxVersion 1.9.2.12

Loaded firefox 3.6.12 from scratch. It won't start, popping up an XULRunner dialog box that says :Error: Platform version '1.9.2.10' is not compatible with minVersion >= 1.9.2.12 maxVersion <= 1.9.2.12. How do I get proper version of XULRunner so Firefox recognizes it?

Hi
I had the same problem but with version 1.9.2.15
I found many people with the same issue doing a Google research and all seem to solve it with a clean reinstall. However:
inside your installation directory (where firefox.exe is) check for the file platform.ini
if you don’t have one, please create it.
Edit the newly created platform.ini or the existing one with a text editor
add the following 2 lines
[Build]
Milestone=X.X.X.X
replace the X.X.X.X with the version number from the error massage. This worked in my case

Error:Platform version '1.9.1,11'is not compatible with mini or max Version 1.9.1.15

Here is the entire error message:
XULRUNNER
Error:Platform version '1.9.1,11'is not compatible with
mini version>=1.9.1.15
maxVersion<=1.9 1.15
This error occurs when i try to launch Mozilla FireFox

# Delete the files and folders in the Firefox installation directory, default location C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
# Download a new copy of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.com and install it
Deleting the installation directory does not remove bookmarks, passwords etc, they are stored elsewhere in the profile folder. When you re-install Firefox it will use the existing user data.
