Another installation?

Hi
iTunes was working fine up until today - I clicked on the icon this morning and the Windows installer came up and then another window appeared, headed 'Problem with Shortcut' - the warning message ran 'Another installation is already in progress. Complete that installation before proceeding with this install.'
Any clues?

I've resolved this but now I have another problem - I'll get back to you...

  • CR 2008 SP1 Error 1500 'Another installation is in progress'

    Hi,
    I'm attempting to install the SP1 for Crystal Reports 2008. When I get to the actual installation phase after extracting all the files and agreeing to the T&C's i get the following message:
    "Error 1500. Another installation is in progress. You must complete that installation before continuing with this one."
    I've found a couple of references to this on the web and they all suggest deleting the InProgress Installer registry key. But, having done this and rebooted I still get the same message. Any one else seen this and know how to resolve it?
    I'm using Windows XP SP3, I have CR9 and CR2008 already installed if that makes any difference.
    Cheers,
    Mike

    I think (and perhaps someone can validate this) that the message I'm getting is because the same build already exists on my PC. As I said in my original post i'm trying to install SP1 which according to [https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/webcontent/uuid/90d7dc4e-36ce-2b10-d2b3-d5d72d067e21 [original link is broken] [original link is broken]|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/webcontent/uuid/90d7dc4e-36ce-2b10-d2b3-d5d72d067e21 [original link is broken] [original link is broken]] is build number 12.1.0.892. When I check my installed build number it is the same and so I must conclude that I downloaded and installed the V1 release. I guess what i'm saying is that it won't allow you to install the incremental SP1 on top of the V1 and it's error message is none to helpfull.
    If anyone can confirm this then it may save others with this issue for wasting time as I have just done.

  • 1.4.2: Another installation is in progress...

    I tried using the online installation, and when I got to the part where it's supposed to start downloading, it didn't do anything. No network traffic. And no close button, no cancel, no way to abort the installation. I let it ferment for 15 minutes, then killed it. That's problem 1.
    Problem 2: Then I downloaded the offline version of the installation. When I ran it, it told me there was another installation in progress, and exited. I can't figure out what it looking for to determine if there's another installation in progress. I googled, I combed through my registry, deleted temp files, but nothing works.
    So now I'm stuck. I just can't install the darn thing. Anyone know how to get around this?

    If you're installing on Windows, you may be running into the problem I had. For some reason, any application that required a DOS window to be opened locked up at the stage where RunDLL was launched.
    I'm not sure if the Windows installation of Java still launches DOS windows (it's been a while), but you may try opening up your task manager, and listing the processes that are running. If there are a couple of RunDLLs processes in there, then you know what's causing the problem.
    Unfortunately, I can't remember how I fixed this, but I'm sure the answer will be at http://www.support.msn.com

  • No Disks that meet the citeria in the Solaris installer documentation found. Please check the system or try another installation option #

    You are probably using the INSTALL CD that comes with Solaris x86.
    Don't use it but use the Software CD 1/1 to boot and install the system instead. The INSTALL CD is supposed to be used on a completely blank system (no other OS's) although even there I think Software CD 1/1 does the job.
    Also, if you are new to Solaris I advice you to get the FAQ (you can find it on e.g. http://www.science.uva.nl/pub/solaris/solaris2- it should be really helpfull during the first few weeks/months on Solaris

  • How do I resolve the error "Another installer is currently running, which must be closed before updating" when updating CC on MacOS 10.9.4?

    Creative Cloud keeps alerting me to an available update but whenever I try to install it it tells me there is another installer running which must be shut down first.
    I've now shut down and restarted the Mac completely and nothing else is running but it still gives me the same error (Error code: 81). See screen shot below.
    I'm running Mavericks (OSX 10.9.4). How do I resolve this?

    Please try the mentioned steps:
    1. Navigate to Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installer and look for CC desktop, if present run the uninstaller to uninstall it.
    2. Navigate to Applications/Utilities and look for Adobe Application Manager folder and Creative cloud folder. If present move to trash and empty it.
    3. Navigate to Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE and rename to OOBE.old
    4. Download CC desktop from: https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud and try to install again.

    The DVDs that came with your computer have got a special Mac OS X version that can only be used with your computer.
    You have a Mid 2009 MacBook Pro that originally came with Mac OS X Leopard. As you upgraded to Snow Leopard, you can use the Snow Leopard DVD to reinstall OS X. If your computer already came with Snow Leopard, you can use the Snow Leopard retail DVD > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    If you want the second OS X DVD too, call Apple to get replacement discs > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 They will send you the DVDs that came with the Mac

  • CS6 Design and Web Premium - Install Error "You are already running another installer,"

    Hi
    I have just downloaded CS6 Design and Web Premium and I have been having problems running the Adobe Installer on a Windows 8 HP laptop. The Adobe installer gets 75% way through the setup process and then stops with error message "Installerfailed to initialise".
    I have run Adobe Support Advisor and the error message is "cpsid_82829s6: "You are already running another installer," bootstrapper error has occurred."
    I have looked at the FAQ's and have done the following
    I have checked System Resources -> Process and I can't see any other setup programmes running
    I have run CS5 Cleaner tool and cleared out any older versions of adobe products
    Rebooted the laptop
    Tried running the Adobe Installer and the same error messages appear.
    Submitted/packaged the Adobe Support Adviser - 40-85436-165301042013
    I did prevousily have CS6 Cloud Trial running on the Laptop but all of the porgramms have been uninstalled and the CS5 Cleaner Toll appears to have cleared any remaining elements.
    I would be grateful for some help and advice in sorting this out.
    Kind regards

  • While reinstalling Cloud desktop app, its stopped by message that says another installer is running

    First thing that happend was that my CC said that there was an update waiting, but I couldnt download it because a pop up window said that another installer is currently running and that I need to close it before installing the product, but there is literally nothing else running, Restarted and closed everytthing I could think of, uninstalled Cloud desktop, and when I went to download it, the same message popped up.
    Nothing is installing or updating, nothing us open. Im on a Mac, and literally nothing is open besides finder. Why can I not download the CC app? I cant download any other apps now because there is not CC app.

    Hi thrasher1992,
    Please launch Activity Monitor and close every Adobe process and then try installing CC Desktop apps. It should fix the issue.
    Please let us know if it helps.

  • Adobe CS4: Error 1618. Another installation is already in progress.

    I can not reinstall the Flash or Fireworks components of my Adobe CS4.  I get this error message:  Error 1618. Another installation is already in progress. I am attempting to reinstall Adobe Creative Suite 4 because Acrobat was not interfacing with my Microsoft Word.  Reinstalling Creative Suite reinstalled Acrobat which now interfaces correctly with Microsoft Word but I can not reinstall Flash or Fireworks which had been working fine.  I open my task manager and shut off any unnecessary processes and disable my Norton firewall and antivirus.  I have tried multiple times, restarting my computer after uninstalling CS4 before trying to reinstall.  Does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix this?

    Hi Charles,
    I don't think this has anything to do with Crystal Reports so go back to the top of the list and try one of the Classic SAP forums:
    http://forums.sdn.sap.com/index.jspa#45
    Or it may be Business One which is an OEM version of Crystal Reports in which case you need to post int his forum:

  • Problem Installing PSE 8.0 - says Another Installation is in progress

    I just purchased a brand new CD version of Photoshop Elements 8.0 for Windows. When I run the installation process, I get past the "enter Serial # screen, and I start the Installation and it comes up with an error message saying "Error 1500.  Another Installation is in progress.  You must complete that installation before continuing this one". I don't have another installation in progress, any idea what I need to do? This is the 2nd one today, the first one was a Mac version that I had to return to the store for a Windows version, but it never started installing.  Please help!

    Hi Dana,
    Right click of your Taskbar at the bottom of the screen, Launch Task Manager, Check the option to "Show processes from all users" and check another instance of Setup.exe or Installer or msiexec.exe already running on the machine. If yes, then End that process and then try to install PSE again.
    Sometimes, this error is also seen when windows is installing the updates silently without we knowing about it, or if there is some updates getting installed for some other application installed on your machine?
    You may even try to restart the machine and then give it a try?
    Keep us informed,

  • Trying to download update to 10.5, but installation interupted with error stating another installation is in progress. No other preocesses are running. Can you help?

    Trying to download update Itunes to 10.5, but installation interupted with error stating another installation is in progress. No other preocesses are running. Can you help?

    We can sometimes get past this particular message by reregistering the Windows Installer Service.
    First, launch a command prompt as an administrator. In your Start search, type cmd then right-click on the cmd that comes up and select "Run as administrator".
    If you have a 32 bit system
    At the command prompt:
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Restart the PC and try another install.
    If you have a 64-bit system
    At the command prompt:
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Restart the PC and try another install.

  • Why wont my programs download it says i have another installer open

    i need my software tonight but everytime i try to download it says another installer is open and stops at 43%

    OK.
    How is your computer connected to the internet? Wireless? Wired?
    What kind of internet service do you have where you are (cable/DSL/dialup)? If you're not sure, run a speedtest from another computer (preferably wired to your router). I use http://speedtest.net. Don't click any of the ads that claim to "Speed up your Mac". Write down and post the download and upload speeds.
    Do you have an Apple Store near you? If so, you could go there to download the OS. Or find a location (an office? school?) that has faster internet.

  • Run another installer at the end of a LabVIEW installer

    Since the DIAdem installer is not an optional installer to include with a LabVIEW built installer, I have decided to copy the files to the destination PC and run the DIAdem installer at the conclusion of my program's installer.  This does not work because there is another installer, i.e. my built installer, that is still in progress and it results in the following error.  Does anyone know of a way around this?
    Note:  I have tried it through a batch file and in another executable VI to perform the same action.

    Sounds like you've already seen this:
    Running another MSI installer Using Batch Files
    I got this working for one of my projects but I think it involved some batch file wizardry that I've since forgotten.
