Problem installing iLife '04 with g4 OS x 10.2.8.

I finally got a DVD drive for my G4 quicksilver.
I am running OS x 10.2.8.
I am trying to install ilife '04 from DVD to get garage band, I had previously installed itunes and imovie from the cdr.
Now when I try to install ilife from the DVD I get the message " This installation cannot proceed because one of the following applications is running ....garageband, itunes, iphoto, imovie, iDVD "
I am not running any of these at the time of install, and cannot find a way of "quitting" any of these programs ... what can I do?
Can I uninstall these, how ?
G4 733 Mac OS X (10.2.x)

JAZZCATT, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Do a Shutdown & then a Startup. That should ensure that no apps are running. Then try the install.
 Cheers, Tom

Problem installing iLife '08

I had a 10.5 (latest) Mac with iMovie from iLife '08.
THIS MAY BE IRRELEVANT, BUT FOR THE SAKE OF COMPLETION:
I ran Migration Assistant to move a number of user accounts, and also brought over applications. Prior to doing so, I placed all the apps on a new machine in a subfolder. This way all the old apps were brought over (without using the automated 'keep newer version' feature); I later deleted all the apps that were older, or the same version.
The Mac apparently has a free version of iMovie '08. 714 (585). This version won't open projects made in the iLife '08 version. I tried to install iLife '08 (as an administrator), but iMovie, etc., were all greyed-out and I couldn't install. Do I need to uninstall the free iMovie (etc.) first? Or is the problem something else? thanks
Bob

Might have something to do with your hardware. Tell us about that.

Yet another question about installing ilife 06 with limited drive space

I received iLife 2006 as a gift for my birthday. I am a happy user of most the iLife 2005 programs (except iDVD, which is useless on my machine with only a Combo drive). I am interested in making use of iWeb and the other improved features of iLife 2006.
My problem is that my 40 GB drive is nearly full, with about 2 GB free. Of this, my iTunes library uses about 15 GB, and the IPhoto library takes another 2 GB or so. I do have a 60 GB iPod with about 25 GB free.
I have read about complications with restoring the iTunes Library from the hidden folder on the iPod. But I wonder if the library could be more easily backed up to the iPod, temporarily deleted from my main hard drive, then restored after installing iLife 2006 (I have read that somewhat less than the full 10 GB is needed after install is complete).
Alternatively, will the iLife 2006 installer allow me to install to the iPod as an external drive, from which I can make adjustments as needed?

You can tell your wife that if you don't get an external hard drive to store your iTunes and iPhoto Library you are a prime target to lose your images and tunes.
Yes, using iWeb you get a new url. I used Contribute to do the fiveafertfive.com site for my daughter's band.
iWeb can create very nice pages and you can see many of them by visiting this link on the iWeb forums. It's eight pages long and lots of sites to look at.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1705138#1705138
Unfortunatley, the ability to send albums directly to .mac is no more with iPhoto 6. You can only send them to iWeb to make your page. Then in iWeb you publish your page to your idisk in a different folder.

Problem installing flash player with I.E

Whilst surfing around the internet this morning I vaguely remember getting a message about needing an adobe flash player update shortly followed by my browser crashing. I didn't think much more of it but from this afternoon onwards I discovered that almost every website i visited would throw up a "This website wants to run the Following add-on: 'Adobe Flash Player' from 'Adobe System Incorporation'. If you trust the website and the following add-on and want to allow it to run, Click Here..." message at the top of the page.
I tried resetting Internet Explorer 8's security settings to default (i think they were default anyway) but this made no difference. I went to the adobe website to attempt to install the latest flash player but every time i went to the installation page it would refresh itself after about 5 seconds with a "This tab has been recovered. A problem with this web page caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab" message at the top of the page. The page would then refresh again, this time ending up with a "We were unable to return you to adobe.com. Internet Explorer has stopped trying to restore this website." error page.
In an effort to resolve these problems I uninstalled adobe flash player using the adobe uninstaller (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html), rebooted my computer and attempted to install the flash player again. Once again I couldn't install it with my attempts again ending up at the "We were unable to return you to adobe.com. Internet Explorer has stopped trying to restore this website." error page.
I just tried downloading the Firefox browser and have had no problem installing and using the adobe flash player so I am guessing the problem is some sort of issue between adobe and internet explorer- any solutions?
Thanks :-)

Hi, You didn't say what version of IE you are using, but most likely IE7 or IE8. It's some option in the browser I'm sure.
Since you ran the Uninstaller, and it Uninstalls all Flash Player from All browsers, try this Adobe Installer that you will download and SAVE to your Desktop. Then close all browsers, keep your Security setting on Medium for the Internet Zone, be sure to use the Administrator account(only one that has permission). Check your system tray (area by the clock) and disable any application that uses Flash, as Messenger services.
Run the Installer from your Desktop and when it is finished, be sure to Reboot(restart) your computer.

Then test here:

Check your websites to see if they are working properly.

Problems installing Windows 7 with boot camp, cant find the cd/dvd driver...

I´m having some problems installing Windows 7 on my new 12,1 (21,5) iMac with boot camp. When the computer restarts and the Windows 7 setup begins, i get the message that the cd/dvd driver cant be found, so i can't continue the installation. I've tried searching online for the driver, but can't find it. The cd/dvd seems to be a OPTIARC cd/dvd ad-5690h, which seems to be produced by Sony. I have a authentic windows 7. I even tried loading everything ver to a usb-drive, but then it wont boot.

After reading around on this, and other forums I tried to burn a new dvd at reduced speed(2x), but that did'nt work either... I have an authentic windows 7 iso, downloaded with serial, is there any way to boot this from a jump drive or external hdd?

Problems installing ilife 4.0 disks on emac

Hello-
I tried looking at previous posts to find a solution to my problem, but couldn't locate anything - so I apologize if this issue has already been addressed.
I never upgraded my iLife apps in my emac, though I have automatically downloaded system upgrades - and now want to upgrade iPhoto, etc. I have two sets of discs for this (I have an Ibook too), and when I try to install, I get a message that one of the ilife apps is running when none are running. So I can't complete the installation.
I appreciate any help - tia
Mike

Hello,
I am new to Apple Discussions; I am also having a problem with my iLife installation. I just bought iLife '06, but when I go to install it on my G4, I get the initial iLife window ok, but with only a plain blue folder showing up in it instead of the installer icon. There are no other installer icons inside the folder(s) either, just more blue folders. I can't even start the installation because of this. I have all the stated system requirements as listed, even more, so why isn't this working? I have 10.3.9, 512 mb ram, Quicktime 7.1.3, DVD drive, lots of GB disk space, etc.
I have a newer version of iTunes already installed, could this affect it? I tried quitting the iTunes helper, fixing permissions, removing receipts, making a new disk image, etc., all suggestions that I heard or came across, and nothing has worked. I even talked to an Apple tech guy for about half an hour with no luck. I've never had a problem with other installations or playing other DVDs before either. Do I need to upgrade to Tiger, which I want to anyway?
I couldn't start a new topic, as for some reason, there is no 'post new topic' link appearing for me either at the top of the Apple Discussions pages, even though I log in ok - ? Another bug? I'm using Safari, of course.
Thanks,
Paul

Problems Installing iTunes 10 with Windows Vista

I am running Windows Vista (32 bit) and have installed iTunes 10. Any time I try to launch iTunes I receive the following message: "iTunes needs to be repaired to work with Vista. Use the 'Programs and Features' control panel to repair iTunes."
The bigger problem is when I open the Programs and Features control panel, iTunes is not listed as a program. All of the other iTunes components are listed(Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Update, Bonjour). However, I can see iTunes (version 10) in the C:>Programs Files>iTunes folder, just not in the control panel.
I was going to attempt to uninstall and reinstall as numerous posts have suggested, however, since the program does not appear in the control panel, I have not been able to uninstall it.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Try using b noir's directions from this thread to get rid of itunes

Which JRE is bundle inside your application ?
Is it International or US only ??
I have a reason to believe that US version is
throwing NullPointerException when installing it
on windows 2000 server
When you starting the installer, The installer is unpacking the JRE - so check which directory it expanded and than Try running java.exe from the JRE that was installed.
Maybe its currupted, You dont need to run any code
even if your run java.exe without anything the
exception is thrown
If exception is thrown try the international version of JRE

Problems installing Inspiration Browser with PSE 10

I have PSE 9 and recently installed PSE 10 on my Windows Computer running Vista Home Premium 32 bit. When I try to access the Adobe photoshop Inspiration Browser from either the introductory window or the HELP drop down in the Organizer, I am told that the Inspiration Browser is not installed and would I like to install it. I download the file adobephotoshopdotcominspirationbrowser.air and when I click install, I get the following message in the Application Window. "Sorry an Error has occurred. The application could not be installed because an application with that name already exixts at the selected installation location. Try installing to a different location."
I have removed and reinstalled Adobe AIR and still get the same message. I have searched and cannot file the file that is supposed to be there.
I have downloaded the Inspiration Browser program to the desktop and can open it from there, but then get a message that the Inspiration Browser should be opened from Photoshop Elements or it won't work properly.That fact seems to be true.
I have experienced the same problem with PSE 9 and could never open the Inspiration Browser in that program either.
I would appreciate help if anyone can suggest a solution.
Thanks.

Are you resizing the photo before save for web?
What settings are you using in the save for web dialog for the jpeg quality?
If you compress the jpeg too much (low quality settings below 60), that can make your photos look bad.
And save for the web in pse 10 automatically strips any metadata in order to keep the file sizes smaller.
Also, the save for web in pse 10 has a bad habit of not remembering your last used settings, so it's good to verify that your actually set to jpeg instead of the default GIF setting.

Anyone having problems installing Boot Camp with New Mac Pro 2.8?

I just get blank screen after it restarts with XP disk. I'm using a vga - dvi adapter with a apple 17" display..
I've phoned apple and read up on here but nobody seems to know. I just wondered whether my 2008 Mac Pro was faulty...
Please can you help?
cheers

Are you getting a white screen after the Mac reboots? If so, try disconnecting all non-essential USB/FW devices.
I had the exact same problem and I went through a long, stressful process of elimination to get it working, even to the extent of using my MacBook as an external drive through target disk mode!
It turned out to be my iMage USB camera. Even after successfully installing Windows I have to disconnect it before using Bootcamp.
I Hope this helps.

Problems installing Flash player with IE

I am having problems with installing the macromedia Flash
player on Internet Explorer 6 on Windows 2000 pro. However the
thing is that with Firefox the flash player works fine. I tried
uninstalling and reinstalling the flash player with no success. The
install program will tell me flash player is installed, however on
every website with flash I get the square with the red cross in the
upper corner.
When browsing this forum I came across this thread:
Forum
thread .
In this thread it was advised to use the uninstaller which
can be found here:
Uninstaller. However
when I use this installer two files are left in the folder
c:\WINNT\System32\Macromed\Flash. The two files are GetFlash and
Flash9.ocx. When I try to remove the Flash folder manually I get
the following error message: Can not delete the file Flash9.ocx The
file is in use by another program. When I reboot and go the folder
again I still get this message. Could this be a problem so that the
Flash player will not install properly?
I hope that someone could help me fix this problem. In the
mean time I will use Mozilla Firefox as this browser does work how
it's supposed to.

Hi,
Which windows version you are currently using ?
If you are using Windows 8 or 8.1, then Flash Player for Internet explorer is updated by the windows update by Microsoft so you need to update your Windows to get the latest version of Flash player.
Current version is 17.0.0.169

Problems installing QuickTime 7 with iTunes 6 for Windows XP

I am encountering problems with the latest version of QuickTime (version 7.0.3) together with iTunes 6.
Installation is fine except at the end when I receive an error message saying ’1628: Failed to complete installation’. It appears that both programmes have been installed and work but I am unable to uninstall them. Neither program appears in the Add/Remove programs list when they should be. If I select ‘Uninstall QuickTime’ from the Program list the uninstalation process starts but stops half way through.
I have tried downloading QuickTime standalone version but this is exactly the same. I removed the QuickTime folder, and all its contents, from C:\Program Files\QuickTime and installed the previous version (6.5.2) which installs and uninstalls fine.
I am at a loss as to why the latest version is causing problems.
Would appreciate any help or advice as to why this is happening?
Thanks

Will a 2nd Gen Shuffle sync with iTunes 6 for

Problems installing 10.7 with defective firewire ports

I tried to install Lion in a Mac mini 2.26 Intel Core 2 Duo with 2 Gb, but it never ecovered from the first reboot. It looks like the installation process can not recover itself from the initial hardware check, because I have problems with the Firewire ports. I know that because 10.6 took 10min to boot, until I remove the IOFireWire*.kext preference files to avoid boot-time checking.
I was able to recover by moving the hard drive to another mac mini, and select the 10.6 partition as the boot partition one (took some time...). Now the "Install Mac OS X" button lies in my 10.6 task bar laughing at me... (do not dare to touch me!)
Any help with that? . Thanks,

That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Problem Installing an application with wine(SOLVED)

I made a directory and installed cinema 4D and for the most part it goes fine,when it's finished installing the app it comes up and i can use it,but when i exit and try to bring the app back up with wine CINEMA 4D.exe i get a message saying wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\CINEMA.exe".Also when i'm installing C4D at the directory selection menu,there's a directory /home/cube/.wine/drive.C/Programs where i'm assuming that's where the app is supposed to be installed,so i checked it with ls -as and the Dir wasn't there so i created it,but when i'm back at the directory selection menu in C4D the Dir isn't there because the .wine Dir is hidden and i'm not sure how to unhide it or if that will even fix the wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\CINEMA.exe" problem and execute the file.
Any help with this will be very appreciated .Thx
Last edited by unilx (2010-11-01 21:33:55)

call wine as any other application that require a filename as argument. From your home directory:
wine '.wine/drive_c/Program Files/.../CINEMA 4D.exe'
(the quote are necessary because of the space in the filename).
You can also specify a Windows path:
wine 'C:\Program Files\..\CINEMA 4D.exe'
