AOL Refuses To Install

Hello,
AOL refuses to install on my Mac Pro. The AOL icon bounces on the Dock than it hangs at the "Installing Main Database" splash screen. The mouse pointer turns into a spinning wheel and just spins and spins. Any ideas how to get it to install? Thanks.

Hello again,
AOL finally installed on my Mac Pro. Today I decided to try installing AOL again. I decided to do a custom install but It stalled at the "Installing Main Database" splash screen again. So out of frustration i decided to put the display on screen saver and left it alone. I checked back an hour later and found AOL on the "Welcome" install screen so I finished the installation process. I was expecting AOL to be super slow on the Mac Pro but its amazingly fast and pretty stable. I don't know if doing a custom install made a difference.

  • Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

    updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

    It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
    Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
    As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
    Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

  • HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4625e Refuses to Install

    My printer is an HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4625e (4620 series). Firmware Version: CAP1FN1451AR
    First, this is what I can do with the printer:
    Print internal ‘Test’ pages and reports.
    Print documents in all applications from a wireless, networked laptop.
    Print documents using ePrint.
    My computer is an HP Omni All-in-one Running Windows 7 Home Premium X64
    The issue is I am unable to (re)install the printer on the HP Omni using either ‘Add Printer’, HP downloads or the installation disk.
    Hoping for a definitive solution.
    Background: Just over a week ago I upgraded from Office Pro 2010 to Office Pro 2013. When I went to print I noticed the dfautl print was showing as One Note 2013. I selected the HP printer then hit print. I got an error message: Word Cannot Print this Document. There is no printer installed.
    I tried to print using NotePad and an Adobe document (thinking it may have been Word related only). This did not work. I could print from any application using the Desktop. But, as noted, I can do so from the networked laptop.
    On opening the Printers folder OneNote was set as the default. I changed the default to the HP printer. No luck. I was told it was not installed.
    I ran Malwarebytes Premium and Microsoft Security Essentials to check for possible incursions. None.
    I then tried System Restore. No change.
    I then tried to repair the print program. No change.
    I then uninstalled Office 2013. No Change.
    I then tried the “Add Printer” function. No Luck. I was informed: “Unable to install printer. Some files are missing or incorrect. Reinstall the driver or try using the latest version.” (Screenshot 1)
    I then tried to reinstall the printer. First as a straight reinstall then second after doing a complete uninstall using Revo Professional Uninstaller and an Advanced Scan.
    This did not work, yet the printer is recognised as being on the wireless network during the reinstall process (Screenshot 2).
    This is what I Cannot do: (Note: during any install attempt I disable both Malware Byes and Windows Security Essentials. I have also attempted installs with the Firewall turned OFF.)
    Cannot reinstall on the system. It refuses to allow a wireless network installation even though it shows on the install screen (Screenshot 2).
    If using ‘Add Printer, it says files missing or incorrect (Screenshot 1).
    If installed using HP Download, I am able to input IP Address but it does not show the copmupter name. It says either. “Computer’s Network Name: Retrieving’ OR ‘Computer’s Network Name: Unable to Retrieve’ (Screenshot 3 & Screenshot 4 respectively).
    When install fails, I get the screen asking to search for a solution (Screenshot 5) which then gives me instructions re a download ‘Helper Application’ (Screenshot 6).
    After attempting to follow those instructions, the downloaded ‘solution’ does not work (Screenshot 7).
    Instead of trying to install over the wireless network I have tried using the USB Install process. The printer then only installs as a ‘Fax’ Printer. On checking the Device Mager – Show Hidden Devices – it shows a ‘Multifunction Device’ with a yellow exclamation mark (!) next to the driver. On checking, it says I need to reinstall the driver.
    Any attempt to convert the USB connection (even though it only installs as a fax printer) to a wireless connection fails.

    Hi @jindo53,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    Thank you for a very well detailed post! From what I have read, I understand that your HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4625e is refusing to install either as a Wireless or USB connected printer, on Windows 7. I am sorry to hear this, but I am happy to help!
    Please take a look through this guide, 'Unable to Find Printer' Error Message Displays for the HP Officejet 4620 e-All-in-One and HP Deskje....
    Tips to avoid wireless connection issues
    The following tips can help prevent wireless connection issues. You might need to experiment with each of these tips to secure a successful wireless connection.
    Move the product, the computer, and the access point (router) closer together.
    Remove any metal objects that are between the product, the computer, and the access point (router). Objects such as refrigerators or metal bookcases can interfere with a wireless transmission.
    Move any device that emits radio signals farther away from the HP product. Devices such as microwaves and cordless telephones can interfere with wireless transmission.
    Accept or allow any firewall pop-up messages that display during the software installation.
    If you connect to a virtual private network (VPN), temporarily disconnect from the VPN during the HP software installation (see your VPN software for further details).
    If you have MAC address filtering enabled on your router, you will need to add the HP product's MAC address to the address filter list. You can find the MAC address on the Network Configuration Page. Follow instructions for your router to add the address. 
    If that does not help, please try the following:
    Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
    Disable any Antivirus programs. Disable Antivirus software.
    Disable any firewall programs. Turn Windows Firewall on or off.
    Create a new user account. Managing User Accounts and Logins (Windows 7).
    Reinstall using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
    If still unsuccessful, proceed to back up your files, and reinstall Windows 7.
    Hope this information is helpful, and thank you for posting!

  • Adobe update refuses to work for CS6 and Photoshop elements. App manager refuses to install.

    Adobe update refuses to work for CS6 and Photoshop elements. App manager refuses to install. Support Advisor is of no help.Anyone had the same problem? It has all worked perfectly for some years now, but refuses this week.Has Adobe changed something.Windows 7.

    What exactly means "refuses"?
    This is the message which comes up if I try to update (from the Help menu) or re-install my licenced copies of CS6 or Photoshop Elements 9.
    “We've encountered the following issues
    Installer failed to initialize.Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem”
    Get Adobe Support Advisor”
    OR
    on trying to open PhotoshopCS6 I get this message:-
    “Adobe Application Manager required to start your trial, is missing or damaged.
    Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager_uk”
    When I follow these instructions and try and start up/install or update Photoshop CS6 I get the same messages all over again. This has been going on since Tuesday afternoon and I am anxiuous to resolve the problem. For several years now all this has worked perfectly through your website and I cannot understand what has changed.  Once I cancel these messages the products themselves seem to function OK. When I attempt to use Adobe Update Manager I get the same messages as above. You will see that my products are properly licensed and up to date. Have you any solution?

  • Adobe Reader X refuses to install - indexing service filter daemon

    I have closed all applications, but Adobe Reader X refuses to install, saying that something called "indexing service filter daemon" is open.  How do I get around this?

    This is how I got around this install issue:
    During install with the Indexing Service Filter Daemon message still open;
    1) right click on My Computer
    2) select Manage
    3) double click Services and Applications
    4) right click Indexing Service
    5) select pause
    6) in the Adobe X install message window, select Retry
    It will have you reboot after install and it should automatically restart the service that you just paused.  If not, repeat the steps and select Start instead of Pause.
    Hope that helps.

  • HELP: Compressor 3.0.2 Update refuses to install.

    I needed to install DVDSP CONTENT so I used FCPS2 Installer Disk. Unavoidably, ALL apps were re-intalled before the content loaded. So I downloaded all the app updates. All updated fine except Compressor 3.0. The 3.0.2 Update refuses to install. And, Compressor refuses to fully start-up.
    There is a Receipt PKG for Compressor 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.0.2, plus Qmaster_Frameworks.pkg 3.0 and Qmaster.pkg 3.0
    Removing 3.0.2 doesn't allow either Compressor 3.0.1 or 3.0.1 to install.
    1) Any idea what's wrong and/or a simple way of fixing?
    2) Is there a way of Installing Compressor 3.0 from the Install Disk WITHOUT returning all the other apps to their original state?
    < WHY on earth does the Install UPDATE versions that are obviously newer with older versions? >
    3) Will Pacifist auto-remove the current version of Compressor or do I still need to TRY to do this manually?

    Interesting. Check one thing for me. Go to your Control Panels, click on Software Update, and see if "Download important updates automatically" is enabled. If not, enable it, then click the Check Now button. This will download the file to your drive, and you should see it.
    If you do this, and the file still isn't there, then I'm stumped as to why it isn't downloading. Like I said, I had this same issue on both my computers, and the same solution worked both times.
    Let me know how this turns out.

  • Application Manager refuses to install

    Hi,
    I'm having a substantial probelm with the Application Manager (AAM). A few days ago I performed an automatic update of Audition, but the progress got stuck at around 50%. A few minutes later the computer totally crashed and after a restart Windows 7 had to repair the entire disk. To my surprise I had to find out that the AAM removed itself from my hard disk. I mean, it wasn't there anymore and the alias icons were blank.
    As suggested in the help I downloaded AAM 6.2, but it refuses to install. I also cannot deinstall the Creative Cloud applications for a new installation, because this action requires the AAM which can't be installed. It's a devil's loop. The guy from the Adobe help chat advised me to download the new AAM 6.2 and install it. That's really funny, as I've told him twice that this isn't possible. Additionally, he refused to help me, because my OS isn't in English.
    Any suggestions? I'm really grateful for any help! Thanks a lot in advance.
    -T.
    EDIT:
    I've been able to fix this issue on my own. Really took my some time and tricks...

    @tsn69- Glad to hear you were able to fix the issue.
    For another person reading this post, the steps I provided in this post http://forums.adobe.com/message/4726312#4726312#4726312 may help. You want to run the Adobe Cleaner Tool first followed by installing the Adobe Application Manager from one of the links provided.

  • TS1702 Every time I try to install an app of the App Store. The iPad refuses to install it and it just says waiting... For hours. Is there a way to fix this problem?

    I am unable to install any applications from the App Store. Every time I try to install an app the iPad refuses to install it and it just says waiting... For hours. Is there a way I can fix this? If so, how?

    I have posted these suggestions many times in the iOS forum and a number of these things have worked for other is the past. Maybe one of them will work for you.
    Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • July 18,2011 AOL toolbar update install. I cannot open Firefox to uninstall the update or the toolbar because everytime I open Firefox it freezes and jams up. I have to shut down my computer as it will not even respond to force quit command

    July 18,2011 AOL toolbar update install. I cannot open Firefox to uninstall the update or the toolbar because everytime I open Firefox it freezes and jams up. I have to shut down my computer as it will not even respond to force quit command. I cannot read my mail (aol) or access my bookmarks all for work.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    You should be able to uninstall that AOL toolbar extension while running in the Firefox SafeMode.

  • Aperture update refusing to install

    Although i have Aperture 3.3 installed the update to 3.3.2 refuses to install with message "Aperture 3.0 or later is required to install this update."  This is the reason what App Store ist not listing Aperture when an update is available. 
    What could i do to overcome this?

    MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.6)
    that cannot be your system, if you are using Aperture 3.3?
    Have you moved Aperture from the Applications folder to a subfolder or renamed it? To install the update, aperture must be named simply "Aperture", without any additions and located in the Applications folder on your System volume.

  • G565 refuses to install latest ATI Drivers :(

    My G565 have the integrated Radeon HD 4270 graphics accelerator.
    I use EXACTLY the correct drivers from AMD by selecting the driver from this page:
    http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx
    For some reason it does install the new Catalyst Control Center just fine, however it wont install the new display driver, it stays at the old 8.760.0.0 from 2010-07-19... I've even ran driversweeper and done complete uninstalls...
    Why does it refuse to install?? Are we reallly stuck at using the latest driver from Lenovo which is outdated???

    I want the greatly improved catalyst control center + some performance improvements and fixes.
    One is that graphics acceleration in FF is improved, also apparently  sometimes FF4-5.x caused the GPU to run very hot in earlier driver releases. 
    I would have hoped for some serious help here  but I guess I have to find some registry hack or another way to install new AMD/ATI drivers from now on...
    Lenove must've blocked it from completely installing... I can't see why since it's just the pretty common HD 4270 (4200 series) onboard (shared Memory) graphics chip in the RS880M Chipset!!
    FULLY supported by the drivers from AMD!

  • Snow Leopard refuses to install updates

    Updates 10.6.1 and 10.6.2 refuse to install on imac. Installation gets to the selection of the drive to install on but refuses to see the mac hd as a legitimate drive. During installation of snow leopard it dumped an image of the previous installation onto my external hard drive (130gb) via the trash can. Deletion of trash can contents fixed this.

    Why did snow leopard dump an image of my hard drive onto my external drive?
    The updates were taken as downloads from your update section not from the automatic updates software.
    How can you guarantee that the dodgy software will be fixed by yet another update which may or may not even recognise my hard drive. This is the first time my hard drive has been considered an unacceptable area for download installation. What caused it?
    Why has Apple allowed this situation to develop?
    I cannot afford to devote a month's download capacity to fixing dodgy software. Can you send me a disc? Last time I downloaded a file of this size I had 1200 dropouts. One can only imagine what that does to the quality of the download.
    What is meant by using terminal to .....?
