Why is 8.0 asking to install when I have a newer version

I use a Dell Vostro 1520 laptop with Windows 7 OS.  I have the newest version of Adobe Reader installed and working properly.  However, every time I start up, I am asked to install Adobe 8.0 but the installation fails because I have the newer version.  How do I stop this start-up request and why does it happen?

I have now checked the start up folder and it is not there.  According to the screen that asks if I want to allow Adobe Reader 8 to make changes to my computer, it's located at c:\users\%username%\AppData\Local Low\Netopsystems\temp\Reader 8.0\setup.exe.  However, when I check for that in Total Commader, it's not there.

  • 7.1.3 will not install, Says I have a "Newer Version", but none installed!

    Okay,
    As I'm sure most people have noticed,the new build of iTunes is not running smoothly. I've tried to install the updated build but it wouldn't work. It installed iTunes and the New Quicktime. It failed to open. So I do what apple tells me to: Try re-installing it.
    But after uninstalling both to try and reinstall, iTunes won't install quicktime anymore. And when I try to use the standalone Quicktime installer, it tells me that I cannot install because I have a newer version than 7.1.3 on my computer!And when I install iTunes (without it installing quicktime, on it's own mind you)and then open it, it says I must have Quicktime installed to use it. Even my Quickitme plugins for my internet don't work!
    I know this is impossible. And I've tried to rectify it every way I know how. Delete the remaining files in Windows and Program Files, use the Windows Installer Clean Up tool, try re-installing in safe mode, BUT NOTHING WORKS! I'd really like to use the new iTunes but I can't do anything with it untill I fix the quicktime problem.
    If anyone can help, it'd be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Rob,
    There is no quicktime folder there. And no quicktime program is installed when I try to install iTunes. The only reason I tried installing quicktime in standalone was because the itunes install was not actively going to the quicktime part of its installation.
    I've tried removing everything and only installing iTunes. But even after deleting the physical files, using the WIndows Install cleanup tool, and cleaning up my registry, the quicktime portion of the iTunes install doesn't complete, and I keep getting "unknown" errors from the crash prevention program, and from what I can see it's because there's no physical Quicktime program installed.
    As for other accounts, no I cannot start it up with other accounts, I keep getting the "Unknown" error and there is no physical files for quicktime anywhere.
    And selective startup doesn't seem to work as there is NO qttask option when I run selective startup.
    So, I seem to be out of options, and thing else I could try?

  • Why doesn't my iPhone notify me when I have a new text message?

    My iPhone 4S doesn't notify me when I get a new text message or iMessage. The phone is not in silent and the volume of the phone is at 10. I keep my phone near me all the time, I can hear the phone ring if it rings. Usually when I text someone, I send the message and immediately lock the phone after. After about 15 minutes wondering if that person replied, I open my phone and find that I have a new message, the phone didn't ring or light up saying I have a new message. The people I text get mad because I never reply, but the truth is, my phone doesn't notify with a new message.
    Sometimes I send a text, press the home button, and then lock my phone. Even when I do that, my phone doesn't notify me. What wrong with my phone? How do I fix this?

    I never drain my battery 100% unless I have no other choice. Such a deep battery discharge is not good for the battery and should not be done often.
    No, the phone cannot "drain the battery 100%,"  The shutdown cutoff is way above battery depletion and is designed not to damage the battery when done occasionally (though doing so repetitively over a long period may shorten battery life span).
    Draining the battery to cut off keeps the meter calibrated and Apple recommends doing so monthly.  Also, a small memory effect has recently been documented for Li-ion batteries and this will help prevent it.

  • Why pages is not seen as installed when I have it already installed in my mbp?

    I'll appreciate help for this, also I have to open twice a pages file always........is there a way just to double click a pages file once and open it?
    Thanks!

    There is something incoherent.
    You wrote that you have Lion and the apps in the version 9.1
    To get this version of iWork you were forced to apply the updater 9.1 which apply to the entire package or you had to download the apps thru the MAS.
    As the MAS doesn't identify the apps, I have some reasons to guess that you don't got them thru this channel.
    But the updater 9.1 made changes in the set of FrameWorks so they must be here.
    Please, run this short script
    --{code}
    set theApp to "Pages"
    set p2as to (path to application support as text)
    tell application theApp to activate
    tell application "System Events"
              set path2app to (application file of application process theApp as text)
              if exists folder (path2app & "Contents:Frameworks:") then
                        set msg to " came from the mac App Store"
              else
                        if exists folder (p2as & "iWork '09:Frameworks:") then
                                  set msg to " came from the iWork’s package"
                        else
                                  set msg to " came from the iWork’s package but the shared FrameWorks are unavailable"
                        end if
              end if
    end tell
    activate
    display dialog theApp & msg & " !"
    --{code}
    It will tell you exactly what is installed.

  • How i can't change anything in the vi who is using activex invoke nodes for excel97 when i have a newer version of excel

    as an example:
    the ActiveX example has executed at LV5.1 Write Table to XL.vi.
    The following has arisen in the context of it.
    This is Vi as long as nothing is changed at the diagram executable.
    Only a constant is put in the diagram this isn't Vi any more executable.
    The error message says from that one of the method knots doesn't work.
    Uses gives it to Excel 2003. to this can notes or tricks like the problem be avoided.
    Have a number of tools calls the Excel it comes to the error messages listed above to have about activeX and to work without problems under Excel97 and to be allowed to not be changed under the current version of Excel any more otherwise there.

    No, you can't select different Excel version at runtime in labview. Microsoft changed some properties and methods during each version upgrade. Sometimes they are not backward compatible, labview can't dectect the difference because the properties and methods are hard-wired during development time. You'll need to relink these methods and properties and recompile the code.

    Photoshop Elements Photoshop elements 12 keeps wanting me to register the product after installing but keeps telling me I have no internet connection or the clock is wrong, why does it keep asking me this? I have register online via the main webpage.

    Hi,
    You need to sign in when using Photoshop Elements 12 as it is the method of activation. If you sign out it deactivates that installation.
    If you are having problems, see if the following helps.

  • Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 Windows XP Thanks.

    Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 . Using Windows XP Driving me nuttier! Thanks.
    (Is is that MicroNetFrame Asst thing?)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == When I installed latest version

    Thanks for your reply. I appreciate your help.
    It was just a hunch that MircoNetFrame was causing the problem. I disabled it as you suggested, and I still have the problem.
    I just changed under Tools>Options> General - had checked "ask me every time" under downloads, so instead of asking me, FF saved the download to I know not where. It no longer saves it to the desktop, leaving a duplicate in "my documents".
    In windows, I have found unless one knows the entire name of the document, one can never find anything. It isn't listed under recent ''''''__. I can't recall the nomenclature, but the
    capability is ridiculous. So, I don't know where that file I just downloaded is!
    I downloaded a PDF file, but this happens with all DL's. It was so easy to have them all stacked in one place and I could recall
    what I had and when I downloaded it easily.
    Do you have any other suggestions other that going back to the old version of FF, which I would rather not do?
    Thanks again for your time, it is very considerate to help a complete stranger, I must say. Sounds like something I might do! Cheers!

  • I am running 10.5.8 on my 17" mac pro laptop and using Firefox 3.6.17, I have tried on several occasions to install ver 4 and when I drag icon onto my applications folder it tells me I have a newer version already there. What is going on?

    I am running system 10.5.8 on my 17" mac pro laptop and using Firefox 3.6.17, I have tried on several occasions to install your new version 4 and when I drag icon onto my applications folder it tells me I have a newer version already there (which is now the 3.6.17). What is going on?

    Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
    If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

  • Installing an older vst when there is a newer version ?

    Im trying to re-install an older version of a VST callled slayer 2. I have removed the files of the newer version from VST folders and also the preference files. However when trying to install the old version Im told I have a newer version already installed. Ive looked at folders like receipts to see if theres anything there to trash but there is obviously an invisble file that Im missing out on. Can anyone help please?

    Is this in an install package or an installer Application ?.
    If the former, Pacifist may allow you to inspect the files to see what checks are made, or even 'force' the install regardless of those.
    Otherwise : try FindAnyFile & search for anything that may have the name included.

  • Why is my texting using data? When I have data turned off I can't send/receive. Texting is "unlimited" but it's using up all my data- help!

    Why is my texting using data? When I have data turned off I can't send/receive. Texting is "unlimited" but it's using up all my data- help!

    Texting longer text messages or any media (pictures/video/sound etc) being sent requires data to be active. However, it does not count against your data caps.
    Since you have an iPhone, you must also be aware of the difference between iMessage and SMS Text messages. The iPhone, by default, will send an iMessage when sending another text message to anyone else with an iPhone, iTouch, or iPad. This does use your data if you are not connected to wifi. In Settings, you can turn iMessage off, and then all of your texts will go through Verizon.
    Also understand- iMessage will use wifi when connected to wifi, but would need cellular data connection to work when not connected to wifi. Regular SMS text messages that are long or any media will always use the cellular data and not wifi, so will not send if cellular data is turned off, even if on wifi. However, this does not count against your cap.
