"A Newer Version Already Exists" message when installing Dragon Stop Motion

I'm trying to install an earlier version of Dragon Stop Motion. But I can't because the installer says that I have a newer version installed on my harddisk. I have googled the issue and found out that I should erase related files in the "Receipts" folder. That didn't work, nor AppZapper and AppCleaner. What should I do?

Firefox 3.6.16 has a newer build and release date than Firefox 4.0 does.

    Windows Vista/7
    C:\Users\USERNAME\Music\iTunes\iTunes
    And delete all the apps that are located in this folder.

  • Getting "object already exists" message when trying to install new software.

    Quite coincidentally, I came across a solution for the "object already exists" message that had recently been interferring with the downloading of new software.  This solution was offered by another on a different website, but it has solved my problem.
    My operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate.  
    The Windows Security Update  KB2918614 seems to be wreaking havoc with some systems.  It did so with mine.
    After removing this particular update, I am now able to install software (was actually just trying to reinstall my HP printer software as I am having another issue with it).
    Don't know if this will help anyone else, but it worked for me.

    To rid myself of the "object already exists" issues due to the Windows Security Update KB2918614 . . . I have learned that an additional step must be taken to keep Windows Updates from automatically reinstalling this update . . . once again, preventing installation of software.
    One needs to hide the update to prevent Window Updater from reinstalling.
    Taken from the Windows community:

    The update in question can be hidden, which will prevent this update from downloading and installing.
    To hide this update:
           Open Control Panel
           Open Security
           Select ‘Windows Update
           Select the option View Available Updates in the upper left hand corner
           Locate the update in question, right click and select ‘Hide Update’
    Thanks
    Once again, my operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate and this particular update was causing difficulty for my specific operating system.

  • Cannot install program because newer version already exists?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to install fontographer but it says it cannot install on this disk because a newer version of the program is already installed.
    I find this quite strange because I've completely removed every single file of the other version, but still it says it's installed.
    Anyone knows how I can solve thi problem?
    Many thanks to anyone who is willing to help me.
    Greetz,
    Finn.

    Use the developers method to completely uninstall the newer version of the program.
    Sometimes a program will leave it's preference files because you might be uninstalling and reinstalling the same version to fix a software issue. The older version see's the newer version preference files and gives the errors.
    Use the free Easy Find and find the programs file(s) and/or just remove them from your ~/Library/Preferences folder by Finder > Go to Folder > /Library/Preferences
    There may be files in other locations as well. Perhaps it's best to ask the developer where all the files are for completel removal.

  • Problem setting up DVD or CD Sharing Setup - newer version already exists??

    Dudes,
    Just trying to set up install DVD or CD Sharing Setup on my MacBook so I can use Remote Disc on the Air, but have got this message on the Select A Destination screen:
    "You cannot install DVD or CD Sharing Setup on this volume. A newer version of this software already exists on this volume."
    I don't understand, as I have not installed this software yet. How can a newer version of it already exists on my MacBook?
    The only thing I can think is that perhaps they included it as standard in 10.5.6, which I have on my MacBook?
    Can anyone help at all?
    Thanks!
    Johnnycakes

    That software is bundled with the current Mac OS X version. Proceed as if it was already installed.

  • Project Versions - Already Exist Message

    Hi Experts
    We are using CN72 to create Project Versions and there is a requirement that different projects need to be created with version key 1 (identified as initial version) with same version description and version group.
    whenever we create the version there is a warning message saying "Project version 1 already exists (see long text)" with  Message no. OV004
    however we can save version with given key, description and version group.
    What is implication of this message and is there a way to avoid it
    Regards
    Shailesh

    I think SAP doesnt recommend to use same version key for different projects. I simualted your case, and i looked into the longtext of the warning message, it says it will lead to performance problem if you use same version key for different projects. Please read the longtext of the warning message.

  • Getting Object already exist error when installing adobe reader

    I'm unable to install any Adobe application programs on my Windows 7 machine.  I tried Adobe Reader XI, Lightroom 5.6, Photoshop CC, etc.  All resulted with "Object Already Exist" error.  I searched on Adobe site for fix, and there was one to delete Crypto file.  However, this resulted with the same error.  How can I install Adobe Reader?

    Your approach is correct in identifying the error.  I used ProcMon from Sysinternals (now Microsoft) and came up with the following events leading up to "Object already exists" error.  The error occurs after opening C:\Users\%account%\AppData\Crypto\RSA\S-1-5-....... file.  If the Crypto directory is missing, MSIEXEC.EXE will create along with RSA subdirectory and file name starting with S-1-5.....  There were five NAME NOT FOUND events, and their sequence is
         Windows Installer Logging item in HKLM\SOFTWARE registry
         C:\Users\%account%\AppData\Local\Temp\MSI7058d.LOG (this file was created at the next step)
         Windows Installer Debug item in HKLM\SOFTWARE registry
         FontSubstitution in HKLM\SOFTWARE registry
         CTF Known Classes item in HKLM|SOFTWARE registry
    I don't know which one causing the error, but my suspicion is the last one. But I don't know how to fix it.  Is there anyone who can give me insight to what is happening and how to fix it?

  • Receiving "object already exists" error when installing

    I tried installing adobe Lightroom 5.6 recently want whenever i get to 'updating component registration'
    I haven't gotten the program installed yet, and there is nothing in the adobe folder, I also tried restarting multiple times and messing with some registry things a bit and still haven't gotten the program to completely install yet, any advice. Thank you!

    Hi,
    If you are using Windows you may want to follow the instructions in this thread: 5.6 Installation fails "object already exists"
    There seems to be a Windows installer problem in some cases.
    Hopefully someone from Adobe Tech will pick up on it.

  • Tried to install new version X1 but fails when installing client B928

     

    I still have no idea what "B928" is; a screenshot of what you are seeing may be most helpful.
    In the meantime I suggest that you download and run the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

    Tried to open a file I created in Numbers a while ago, which I modified on 11/4/13, and got a message that I needed a newer version of Numbers.  When I went to the Mac App Store it shows that the new version is already installed and there doesn't seem to be a way to reinstall it.  When I checked "About Numbers" on my MacBook it shows "Numbers '09 version 2.3".  Any suggestions as to how I can get the new version installed?

    Are you launching Pages from an icon in your Dock? Installing the update does not change the Dock icons & it does not remove the older versions. Go to your Applications folder & launch the new Pages from there.

  • When I try to install Lightroom 5.6 I get a "Object already exists" message. I can't install it at all

    I updated Lightroom to 5.6 before going away for the weekend. When I came home I was unable to access lighroom all together. After searching I finally found how to chat with customer service (which I can't figure out again) and they told me to uninstall Lightroom, make a new Admin on my computer, and re-install it on the new Admin. When I did this I still get the same "Object already exists" message and it won't even install now.

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * Delete the files and folders in the %temp% folder.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • How do I download flashplayer when message just before finish, says newer version already downloaded, which isn't true?

    I am using Windows 7, Internet Explorer 11,on a Compaq CQ5210F PC. I am trying to download Adobe Flashplayer. When the download process gets to the point where you are supposed to click the Finish button, a message appears underneath the download progress bar, that says, "Newer version already downloaded", which is false. I hit Finish button anyway, and I am shunted to another screen for problem solving, which does not work. Any ideas, suggestions, help from anyone?

    Hello Dale,
    Please do the following:
    Download the uninstaller from this page, Uninstall Flash Player | Windows.
    Download the installer(s) corresponding to the browser(s) you use from this page, Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows. They are posted at the bottom of the page in the 'Still having problems section'.
    Delete any installers you have previously downloaded.
    Run the uninstaller.  After running the installer launch Windows Explorer and navigate to \Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash.  Ensure the directory only contains the FlashInstall.log file.  If you have a 64-bit OS, please also check \Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash directory for the same.
    If other files exist (e.g FlashUtil..., NPSWF..., Flash...ocx, etc), reboot your machine to remove these files.
    Run the installer(s) downloaded from step 2.
    If you are still encountering issues after executing these steps, please post a screenshot of the \Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash (and \Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash if 64-bit OS) as well as the contents of the FlashInstall.log file (from both directories if applicable).
    Thank you.

  • When I try to open a Pages document from iCloud, created on my iPad, I get message stating I need a newer version of Pages.  When I go to app store all I get is "installed" when looking at pages app. my Macbook pro is up to date with all updates.

    When I try to open a Pages document from iCloud, created on my iPad, I get message stating I need a newer version of Pages.  When I go to app store all I get is "installed" when looking at pages app. my Macbook pro is up to date with all updates. Any ideas?

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
    Note: Apple has removed over 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • 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
