Problem with installing and running some applications or drivers

When installing and installing some items, towards the end of the installation I get this message:
/System/Library/Extensions/comcy_driver_USBDevice.kext
*was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for update*
The end result is that some things do not seem to work properly, such as my HP printer. Would anybody have any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Thank you for your response. Originally, I had a problem with Airport and ended up reinstalling Snow Leopard. Since then, when downloading upgrades etc, such as HP printer drivers, iTunes etc., towards the end of the download when its running the script, I get this message: /System/Library/Extensions/comcy_driver_USBDevice.kext
+was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for update+
Sometimes, the download hangs and is unable to complete. The main problem I've encountered so far with an application is when I use the printer to scan an image via Preview, it's blank: there's nothing there.

    I have been trying to install Photoshop CS6 & CC and Acrobat Pro XI on my Mac Pro (late 2013). I keep getting a 'configuration' error message and wondered if the problem was wide spread.

  • Severe problem with installing and starting Audio-DVD Pla

    Hi,
    after installing the new drivers (SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_000.exe) for my Audigy2ZS in XP SP3 i had np mic boost and the mixer did not show the mic as an selectable source. So i rolled back to my old drivers and after that i have problems with installing and starting the Audio DVD Player. I tried so far: uninstalling everything like its said solution ID 72, checking HD for corrupted files and i did a repair installation of XP. Nothing helped. When i only install the drivers and the DVD Audio Player from the original CD everything is fine until the reboot adter installation. When the OS tries to start the "chkcolor.exe" the PC instantly reboots. When preventing XP from doing so, there is no reboot, but as soon i want to start the DVD Audio Player a reboot occurs again. When i try to uninstall the DVD Audio Player before unstillaing the drivers, the is also a reboot. First uninstalling the drivers and then the DVD Audio Player, there is no reboot.
    Any ideas?
    Best regards and thank in advance,

  • Problem with installing and uninstalling applicati...

    hi all,
    I have a problem with installing or uninstalling apps on 808. When i try to install an application through Nokia suite or when trying to run the application file from the phone's memory the screen freezes and becomes unresponsive but the 3 phone buttons work just fine. I have to shut down the phone and the screen becomes responsive again. Anything available to help me wiith this situations as I cannot use any of the apps I have. Any help much appreciated.
    Regards
    Alex

    You are not alone. Im also having the same issue because we do alot of install and uninstall apps. This is the bad point of symbian. But I tired to install the latest FP2 it will be slightly abit smoother now. So you have the latest version now but did you tired to restore any backup yet? It might be the setting on when you restore that affect it. The feezing should be shorten on FP2 but it will still remain there depending on the type of apps from what I experience.
    I hope they will provide multiple function to uninstall apps since it will go through a long process to uninstall apps 1 by 1.
    Reason is because some apps will go through process like preparing install, process install, finalising install which take away your control for that few seconds or a minute instead runnning in background mode. Its not convenient to uninstall more apps.

  • [Problem with U310 and W8] Deinstalled my WuDFRd-Drivers

    Hey,
    i just set up my new u310 with windows 8 and it worked fine. Then i realised, that on startup it takes about 4-10 minutes to search for wifi and i began struggeling around with things... deinstalled some drivers, reinstalled them again, just to see which drivers collide because the wifi service didnt start on startup.
    Then i saw a message on my system which was timed around the startup time and it said "The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device ROOT\LENOVOVHID\0000.". I looked it up on the internet and i saw that few people had the same problems with the long startup and similar things... so i just deinstalled the "Windows Driver Package - Lenovo WuDFRd Drivers" to reinstall a newer version or something like that.... but problem is, Where can i find this Driver package? I just cant find it. Will the startup problem be solved with a new installation of these drivers? Please help me

    Hi all,

    Suppose i check Vibration and Strain, I should be able to display both Vibration and Strain data. (I should compare each element of 1d array with the string constant and run the case structure).
    I have to run the GET event continuously to display the data. 
    I have attached the code to the post.
    Please can anyone suggest how to go about this.

  • How to fix problem with installed and working add-ons disappearing after update to 20.0.1?

    I updated to version 20.0.1 of Firefox the other day. I had the theme Qute 3++ 1.19 installed and it took 3 restarts of the browser before it kicked in and worked again, for some reason.
    Then I noticed that my MillBar Community toolbar 3.18.0.7 had disappeared, which I use for the feature of collecting my email accounts to get fast notifications about new emails. Also my Adblock Plus 2.2.3 seems to not be working because all of a sudden I see ads everywhere and I also discovered a bunch of pop-ups from nowhere. I used these add-ons for such a long time that I was shocked.
    When i went to type a message to a friend, I also noticed that my american-english dictionary/spellchecker was not working.
    The first thing I checked was that none of these add-ons was inactivated or said to need updates. The dictionary had disappeared, so i re-installed that. I also reinstalled Adblock Plus. Still it doesn't work.
    When i entered the email information into the toolbar options, it collects my emails for a while, but suddenly it stops and the information is not there anymore. If I restart the browser it also disappears.
    Same thing with the dictionary. it works for a while, and then suddenly it's like it's disabled.
    And the add-ons are still in what seems like working conditions in my lists. No errors that I can see, no updates available.
    I'm really at a loss as to what to do, I've never had problems like this before that couldn't be solved with an update of the add-on. So I'd be very grateful for help with this and hope that I have provided enough information.

    this help is not useful.
    Since the new firefox version 20.0.1, '''no more of my add-ons work''' (except firebug ). They are installed '''but not visible '''(no toolbar, no menus) !!! same for the new add - ons that I installed. I tried everything: to reinstall add-on, to reinstall firefox.
    this new version of firefox is really horrible, '''thank you for making a corrective because I cannot work any more with'''

  • Problem with Youtube and Flashplayer : some options are not responding anymore

    I have a very strange problem since few days only on Youtube (other famous flashvideo websites are working without problem) I tried many things already without success.
    I can still play videos on youtube, excepted the buttons under the player are not responding AT ALL. I can still see them but it's not responding (or for exemple when Im going on the youtube player "Sound" icon the bar volume doesn't appear)
    I tried already to uninstall flashplayer and update it to the last version (10...38) but no changes. I have the same problems on all browers (IE; Firefox and Chrome). I also reset all Firefox and IE without success. Reinstall Java. And I have the last drivers for my graphic ard AMD. 
    Here is a few pics to show my problem : 
    You can see clearly that the button for resolution doesn't appear at all. 
    Picture of my youtube player : 
    on Firefox :

    on IE
    http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/225/29761205.jpg/ 
    Quite strange also on IE you can see that there is a kind of bar who seems to block me the access to the control of the youtube player icons : 
    http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/812/ie2q.jpg/ 
    Im on Windows 7 64Bits, but i'm using the 32Bits version of Firefox and IE, I tried also to turn OFF my Avast Antivirus and my firewall. But no changes. 
    If anyone has an idea, i would really appreciate because even if i can still watch video, i cannot change the audio volume of it and change the resolution or even activate the google subtitles options. The only icons who are responding on the youtube players are the two on the right (to enlarge the screen).

  • Problem with Installing and Configuring MS Server 2012 Essentials trial and MS Server 2012 Standard trial

    My name is John Grace.  I have been an MS customer for years.  Never before in my experiences with MS up to this point have I experienced such POOR product support.  Your pre-sales agents have no knowledge to offer with pre-sales config or
    install issues, your support personnel are trained not to provide any reasonable help with even minor questions and concerns helping to make sure your trial experiences are progress and successful, your product support Mgrs show lack luster concern if you
    need some technical direction.  The first thing that is asked is do you have a support contract or credit card for this session.  Now, if I am evaluating products a support contract should not be necessary as you should want customers to have good
    outcomes with their trials.
    I have been trying to configure test servers with the above mentioned products for the past 6 days with no success.  Each install is different and the configurations some times work and some times they don't.  I reach out for help in your forums,
    etc., and am still at square one.
    This frustrating and breeds a lack of confidence in your organization.  When Bill Gates was in charge I experienced none of the nonsense today. 
    I have identified bugs and issues to your product teams and they gladly accept these.  But when help is needed...it is send us an email type attitude.  I have 8 8 core servers running  windows 2008 server R2 slated for upgrading to windows
    2012 server, and more after that.  If I don't get the trial software to work, the upgrades are terminated.
    Please give me some help or you will loose me as a customer, and customers that I installed systems for.

    Hi again Alan,
    Thanks for the reply, i have however not been able to find any viable hotfix from MS addressing this problem so far. I only found the QFE for 2008 R2, but this is not applicable in my enviroment.
    Sadly, we are experiencing the same issue with the 2008 R2 server as print server now. So the problem seems to be with the 2012 R2 RDS servers.
    We have been able to narrow it down to a probable cause though:
    The issue seems to be the cause of Client Side Rendering, even if it is disabled on the shared printers. We are seeing heavy bloating in the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Providers\Client Side Rendering Print Provider
    The same printers are listed multiple times in subkeys for each user-SID.
    The print server is listed twice under the 'Servers' key, once with just the hostname and once with the fqdn. Benath these two many of the printers are also listed multiple times.
    Consequences are that printers are showing as clones for the users and they cannot set them as default printer. If they remove the printer manually, it just reappears. Setting a delete on the shared printer through GPP does not work either.
    The only manual workaround we have found working is to delete the entire "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Providers\Client Side Rendering Print Provider" key on the
    terminal server in question, and then restart the print spooler. This fixes the problem for the user, but once they start logging off and on again, the bloating of the registry is at it once more - and the problems following with it.
    In an enviroment with 70+ printers and 15 RDS servers, spread on 3 different farms, it's not a good solution though.
    Any ideas?

  • Anybody has any problems with installing and printing with canon lbp6650dn?

    hi,
    i bought a new i-sensys lbp6650dn and i am trying to make it work with my macbook 10.5.8. the installation cd that comes with it does not work with mac. i downloaded the latest drivers from canon's website, and could add the printer to my list.
    computer's connected to the printer with USB. both the computer and the printer show no error, but whenever i try to print a document it starts printing jumbld letters and numbers that look like programme codes. moreover, it prints around 20 pages for a 1-page document. does anybody know what the problem might be? i am not sure whether there is something wrong with the computer's settings or the printer's. it's the first time installing a printer is giving me such a hard time. any help would be much appreciated.
    thanks!

    Try reseating your memory. Sometimes this occurs when the RAM is not seated all the way in the slot.
    You could also boot from your 1st install disk while holding down the D key. Then run the diagnostics on your MacBook.

  • Problem with Expose and Adobe AIR application -can't click on app in Expose

    I just installed a new Adobe AIR application called TwitterLocal. The app was working fine until I accidently hit some keyboard shortcut and the application window disappeared. I figured I accidently assigned the window to some other "space," however I do not have SPACES turned on. Furthermore, when I select EXPOSE, I can now see the content of the application's window, however if I click on the app (which takes on that grey-highlight appearance when you mouse over it) the desktop returns to its normal position. I can see via the top status bar that the app is currently selected, but I cannot access the app window.
    Is there any way to send an app that was "sent" to expose back to the normal desktop? I've tried rebooting and even uninstalling/reinstalling the app but it is still lost in expose.
    Any thoughts on this would greatly be appreciated.

    Solution was to change display to lower resolution, then the Adobe AIR app TwitterLocal became visible on the standard desktop and I was able to click on and move the app window towards the left of the desktop. Once I switched the resolution back, everything was ok.

  • Problems with installing and activating and older version of Creative Suites

    Hi. I'm using a MacBrook Pro with Max OS 10.6.8 and am trying to install an old version of Adobe Creative Suite (2 Premium) that I have.  I got through the whole installation process yesterday, but was unable to activate it.  I had to quit without going further. This morning, I read through the info that comes with the program and it looked like I would need to reinstall everything, because I stopped before activation. When I inserted the 1st disk, it did not load right and got stuck.  I had to forcibly eject it.  However, Disks 1-4 are still loaded on my computer.  I have 3 questions:
    Can the older programs no longer get activated?
    If they CAN, how do I get from the info loaded under my Applications folder to the activation?
    Alternatively, since I stopped before activation and hit "quit" rather than "cancel," do I have to start the whole process all over again from the beginning?
    Thanks for any help you can give me!

    Put your CS2 disks away (since they can no longer be used) and follow these instructions from Adobe
