Please help:error w/ adobe download assistant"application could not be installed because another..."

Application could not be installed because another application is already being installed. Please finish the first application before preceeding with this one". It says something like that. I hit the download button and then hit save. It downloaded something, but that was it. So I went back and hit "save and run" and this message appears. I am not sure how to run what I saved initially if that is even the problem. Please help. I need to use this program tonight - the trial of CS5 Extended. Thank you!

Have you tried restarting your computer?  It is possible you have a pending update or even another piece of software being installed which is preventing the installation.

  • "Sorry, an error has occured. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged

    Hello-
    I have an air application that is distributed via CDROM, the app is signed by a code signing certificate and timestamped. In mid-August when my certicate expired my users started calling stating that they couldn't install our product due to the following error: "Sorry, an error has occured. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author." From my understanding a timestamped application is taken at a point in time when it's generated so why would it matter if the certificate was still valid? I have since replaced the certificate and will need to redistribute to my (thousands of) users however when I test it out using a future date and time the same error occurs. Any information to help resolve this would be grately appreciated.

    my command:
    C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adl
    application.xml
    C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adt
    -certificate -cn HelloW
    orld 1024-RSA certHelloWorld.pfx password
    C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adt
    -package -storetype pkc
    s12 -keystore certHelloWorld.pfx HelloWorld.air
    application.xml HelloWorld.html
    password: password
    C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>
    And here is another link to download my code

    Hi Kashmore,
    Seems like the downloaded file was corrupt that could be because of either network restriction or the anti virus might have blocked it. My suggestion would be to try and download the product either by turning off the Antivirus or try a different network.

  • Adobe AIR could not be installed because another application is already being installed

    OS Windows XP
    If I try to start a new setup I receive the following message:
    "Adobe AIR could not be installed because another application is already being installed. Complete the first installation before proceeding with this one."
    This is the messagge when I try to remove Adobe Air 1.0 from Control panel:
    "Another installation is already in progress. Complete that installation before proceeding with this install."

    In the past I had problems with a virus and I removed some voices on regedit. I think I've combined some mistake.

    Hi,
    I'm sorry you're having problems installing/uninstalling air.  Have you tried rebooting to see if that resolves the issue? 
    If it still fails, can you enable MSI logging using the instructions found on the following page and then post the msi log contents for review?

  • Air 1.51 installation failure. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged

    The error:
    The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author.
    is generated when an AIR installation file is lauched from a Samba Network Drive in Vista Utlimate 64. If the install files are copied to a local drive, it installs without incident.

    Working with networks drives are never reliable.  Corruption, path problems, networks connections, and privlatges can come in the way of a properly mapped drive.  I think your solution is fairly straight forward.  You need to install your application from a local filesystem, not a mapped network drive.  In the meantime, log a bug report HERE.

  • Error: "FT DeepDark 11.3.1 could not be installed because Firefox cannot modify the needed file." What does this mean?

    In an earlier version (Firefox v.31) on this, and (presently) on two other PC's, I was/am able to run add-on FT DeepDark 11.3.1 without any problems. It was only recently - after updating to v.32.0.3 on this PC that this situation started. The PC in question is a Dell Dimension 8400 Intel P4 running Windows 7, though I'm thinking it may have something to do with the newer version of Firefox. Could anyone help me with this? I like this add-on because it is easier in my eyes when browsing the internet. Thanks
    PS: Attempted to install the troubleshooter, and again I received a similar error: "Troubleshooter could not be installed because Firefox cannot modify the needed file."

    This error has been reported before in this bug:
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730040#c21
    Please read that bug I linked you to and let me know if the last comment in the bug solves your problem. Apparently the problem is about the addon .xpi file being read-only. Try right-clicking it, going to Properties and unchecking the "Read-only" attribute box at the bottom of the dialog. Click Apply, then OK.

    I am installing the AIR app on Windows XP. The AIR app is installing fine on all MAC systems, but not on Windows. The dates in the Windows systems are correct.
    Where exactly (what is the "home" directory) on the Windows machine do I need to put the .airappinstall.log file?

    What's the name of the file you are attempting to open?  Is it "ScreenFlow_4.5.2.dmg"?  If it is the correct name then the message is correct and you are attempting to open a file with DMG files extension and not one with a PDF file extension.  Adobe Reader opens PDF files an not any other file type.
