"the help files for Lightroom were not properly installed"

I get the above-mentioned error when I try to access the help file. What to do?
I saw that the same question were raised earlier this year but remained unanswered.
When I check for updates, I am informed that my software is up to date.

Basically, Adobe are moving (or in many instances have already moved) away from Help files being installed on your hard disk. The basic Lr installer no longer includes Help documents, instead it should take you to the page I shared with you earlier.
Hopefully, above helps, otherwise, the folowing excerpt from Adobe Community Help Known Issues page explains futher. It's not specific to Lightroom but does try to 'excuse' the problem you're seeing.

Issue: Local Help is not available
Adobe plans to offer PDF reference files for download in June 2012 and apologizes for the inconvenience. If you are encountering error messages, such as "Adobe Help Viewer is not available. Please reinstall the application," see the separate troubleshooting document:http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/help-manager-troubleshoot-error-codes.html
Online Help is updated and provides a comprehensive reference. Online Help for every Adobe product is available at http://helpx.adobe.com/support/
Note:
In almost all cases, there is NO need to reinstall the CS product application or the Help Manager. The error strings are outdated and incorrect. See the troubleshooting document referenced above for more details and steps to resolution.

Hi Tamekia,
I am sorry to hear nothing has worked yet. I have looked up some additional information and possible solutions. Follow the steps in this document to perform a level-three uninstall, register the Windows Installer Service, and then reinstall the HP software. An uninstall and reinstall of the software deletes and overwrites any of the files that might cause the error and resets the Windows Installer. HP recommends that you download the latest software from the HP Web site to remove any files that might be causing this error.
Level-three uninstall, and register the Windows Installer Service

Offline Help Files for Lightroom 3.5?

I understand that these offline help files do exist, but I'm unable to find them.
Online help files are totally useless with the Broadband speed available in the sticks where I live!
Will some kind soul please help?

There's a link in the upper right corner of the LR help screen that lets you see a PDF of the help file.
Once you have that showing in your browser, there's a "save" button. The PDF is about 10 megabytes, but you only have to download it once.

Instrument I/O Assistant not properly installed

Hi,
I recently purchased a student edition of Labview 2009 and I've been having problems with the intrument I/O Assitant. Each time I place it on the block diagram I get the error message that it was not properly installed. I've searched the knowledge bases and carried out the recommended remedies to no avail. I downloaded drivers from NI.com, uninstalled NI VISA and reinstalled the its latest version still nothing worked. Can someone please help me out here.
Thanks

Hello,
I see that you uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, but did you make sure to only reinstall the Instrument Assistant after the drivers? Also, what operating system and driver versions are you using?

•"Warning! iTunes was not properly installed. If you wish to import or burn CDs, you need to reinstall iTunes."

Hi, I would be greatly appreciated if anyone could assit me.
I have tried loading ITunes several times, each time I'm getting the same message :Warning iTunes was not properly installed. If you wish too import or burn CD's, you need to reinstall iTunes"
Additionally, the same error message appears despite having made changes to the registry editor.
Thanks
Timmzee

Hey there Timmzee,
I would suggest that you reinstall iTunes as a first step for troubleshooting this issue, keeping in mind that iTunes and related components must be uninstalled in this specific order:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
If you are still having issues with your iTunes installation after uninstalling iTunes in the correct order, use this article for further troubleshooting steps:

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

Why are you trying to download iTunes to a CD? iTunes is a program that you need to install on your computer.

Are you installing the 64-bit version or the 32-bit version? I personally have never had a problem installing iTunes on my Win7 64bit system.

Open Pictures folder and move the files named lrcat-journal and lrcat.lock to Desktop.
Make sure that , they are not inside Pictures folder any more and try to open backup from Lighrtroom and check..
Any LRcat file with .lock extension , move it to Desktop.

I have imported a jpeg photo into iPhoto and cannot get the Places map to let me fix a position on the map. It remains disabled for my photo. Checking out the Help file has not given any solution.

I have imported a jpeg photo into iPhoto and cannot get the Places map tp show. I have tried the Help file and the information was not helpful. Can anyone give advice here?

I am using iPhoto 9.1.1. When I select thephoto, then Places I get the window (Places to lookup disabled). When I hit theInfo button I get the size an JPEG notification, and Faces and Key words. The “reverse” of thepicture shows a window with Rotate, Hide, Trash etc.
When I select Places, get the Google worldmap, and this case a pin on Sydney Australia showing that eighteen photos arecorrectly placed. I am unable to make the connection to San Francisco wherethis particular photo was taken on a very modern camera.

Theogt
