Application Installation Problem: Windows 7

Hi all,
I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit installed and booted via bootcamp.
I have an installation file which, when I double click, presents me with the following error:
"The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need and x86 or x64 version of the program, and then contact the software publisher"
I have checked the file on a PC with the same Windows 7 installation and it works fine.
I haven't encountered this problem before and wondered whether it could be a boot camp specific error?
Thanks/

System - Advanced Protection - Configure - allocate 15GB - then create a new restore check point.
Any install or update will create new restore check points.
If your system is updated, then ability to install should be fine. But run sfc just to check.
And for malware/AV I would definitely recommend MSSE unless you feel good that what you use is W7 compatible and working.

Someone else has been troubleshooting why Apple Software Update isn't working, which to me almost qualifies as oxymoron as ASU is something I won't even touch! burned once...
RESTORE is to restore your system itself to an earlier point in time, not to rollback that program.

  • PC SUITE: Nokia Application Installer Problem (msx...

    I have Windows XP SP2 installed in my PC e i cant't install program in my Nokia 7250i. I tried to install the olds version of PC Suite but I have the same problem.
    The problem is that same applications work correctly, as File Manager, Nokia music Manager, but when I launch Nokia Application Installer I have a fatal error,
    AppName: applicationinstaller.exe AppVer: 6.82.96.4 ModName: msxml3.dll
    ModVer: 8.70.1113.0 Offset: 0001f9e1
    I made everithing possible, I installed more and more time PC Suite, I used the Nokia PC Suite Cleaner, I also cleaned manually every key in the regedit but no solution.
    I can't apply a workaround (install application directly via phone) because my phone don't support symbian program (e.g. FX Explorer) and I can't re-install the PC (is a Company PC).
    Thanks and sorry for my english

    Hi,
    I don't know why this microsoft's msxml3 parser cause problems....
    What older versions of PC Suite you have tried to use ?
    And does the same problem happen also with applications (start from C:\Program Files\Nokia\Nokia PC Suite 6\ folder):
    TextMessageEditor.exe
    GetConnected.exe
    ContentCopier.exe
    ContactsEditor.exe

  • AIR application installation error (Windows)

    Hi,
    We’ve bumped into troubles while developing AIR
    application. The problem is in installation AIR application under
    Windows by a user without administrator privileges. When installing
    application user selects installation folder he has permission to
    write to. And after installation begins it ends with error #0: Some
    error occurred...
    In the installation troubleshooting it is written that
    installation of AIR application *may* require administrator
    privileges when installing to a location user has no rights to
    write to but we do.
    Is there any way to install AIR application by an
    unprivileged user?

    My understanding is you can do elevated installation on
    Vista, but not on XP.

  • Adboe Installer - Initializing Installer problems Windows 8.1?

    Is anyone else having issues with the installer for the Creative Cloud working on Windows 8.1 (64 bit system)? Mine just hangs and never updates. What I do get is the Window that displays the progress bar, the CC logo in the top left, the Cancel button is displayed but disabled and nothing more than that. After an hour of doing nothing I need to cancel through the task manager. Very frustrating, and without this working properly I can not get my to other Adobe applications which basically makes my subscription worthless. Thanks in advance for any help on this.

    Hi Romsinha,
    Made the changes according to suggestion (caps_old and OOBE_old), rebooted the computer and it did have a different affect: Now I get the Adobe Installer window (CC logo top left) message: Downloading Creative Cloud desktop, Cancel button lower right corner is enabled, but it does not start the download... it has been sitting this way over an hour.
    Computer is connected to internet and able to download files from multiple locations except for Adobe Creative Cloud. I know it can download from Adobe successfully because it updated Adobe Air this morning with no problem. Any additional ideas? Thanks in advance.

  • BF2 disk drive and installation problems (Windows XP Home on a MBP)

    So I've taken the leap and installed Windows XP Home on my MacBook Pro. It makes me cringe.
    It was not an easy process. Installing Windows took me about 4 hours. There would be an error, I would have to eject the disk, reboot, and the promised 39 minutes seemed to be 5 times slower than it actually was. By the time I got Windows installed it seemed to be running ok, until yesterday.
    Yesterday, I tried to install Battlefield 2 Deluxe Edition onto Windows. I inserted the first disc (1 of 5) and my MBP spit it right back out. This happened almost 10 times until finally when viewing "My Computer", the MBP accepted the disk. I then started to install. It froze up a couple of times, so I restarted. Same problem: the MBP wouldn't accept the disk. It finally did, I started install and it finally went. And then, about 4 or 5 percent of the way in, it stopped and said somethign along the lines of "BF2 installation failed, please restart install from the beginning". I did, and got the same message.
    Any ideas?
    2.0GHz MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   1.5 Gb RAM

    Now that I have thought about it, I would have to guess that the problem is my SuperDrive.
    That would attain for the slow Windows Installation and the BF2 problems.
    I also am having problems importing a CD into iTunes. Seems like enough of a problem to make a visit to the Apple store.

  • Lightroom 4 installation problem (windows 7)

    Hi, I'm having trouble installing Lightroom 4 on my Dell studio 15 laptop (64 bit-Windows 7, 4 GB RAM).  The installer seems to stop after the pop-up saying it is 'extracting Adobe_lightroom4_x64.msi'.  The pop-up disappears and nothing else happens.  I've tried restarting, uninstalling Lightroom 2, running ccleaner, re-downloading the installer, turning off Microsoft security essentials and the windows firewall, and starting up in safe mode (the latter gives a message saying it can't install in safe mode).  What else should I try?

    It sounds like for whatever reason the installer isn't able to extract the 64 bit install files. Lightroom comes as one file but it is really just a bundled up archive with both the 32bit and 64bit installers included. When you run it the installer extracts these and then runs the one relevant to your system (in this case it would be the 64 bit installer).
    As you have another machine where the install goes ok you could run the installer on this machine, it will extract the install files at which point you should be able to copy those files onto a USB stick or something, take them home and then run the installer directly. Hopefully this should get around the problem that the installer is having extracting the files and allow you to install the program directly.

  • Flash Player upgrade installation problem - Windows 7 x64 & Firefox

    Hello
    It is impossible to upgrade the Flash Player to version 11.7.700.224 or 11.7.700.169
    The antivirus DrWeb detects the installer as a virus (Trojan Downloader) and blocks the download process, but even disabling the antivirus and stopping its services (rebooting included) another problem appear:
    The OS Windows 7 x64 rejects the installation saying that there is a program or component required that is not present.
    The present version of Flash Player that I have installed is 11.4.r402.265, with this version is not problem for install, uninstall or configure, but Firefox claims that the version needs to be upgraded.
    Also a new and strange and  disturbing function has appeared.
    In the address bar of Firefox at the left has appeared an Adobe icon the request if I want or not to activate Flash for each web page that contain flash elements.
    For example: In YouTube each time I open the page is nescessary to reactivate Flash for to allow the video function, if not the video screens reamain in blank.
    Many pages that have active contents force to reactivate Flash a lot of times.
    For example: The free web storage servers (rapidshare, hotfile, etc) have routines of showing publicity during the login and startup of the upload/download process.
    Each time that I need to reactivate Flash the whole page is reset and makes incredibly slow the use of the cloud storage services.

    Hello
    Google Chrome has it own Flash Player built in.
    So you cannot uninstall it seperatly, only deactivate it.
    And it is not Flash Player v11.2.x at this time.

  • HELP needed! N97 Application Installation Problem.

    Alright, here's my problem. My friend sent me a .sis program to install in my phone today. When I tried installing the program, it somehow occupied all my available memory in my phone memory (which is about 60MB before I attempt to install the application) and while not able to complete its installation. I suspect that it was a virus program or some sort because when I tried finding for the files in the phone memory through my computer, I failed to find any file which has that amount of size. My computer only shows that a total of 19MB files are contained in the phone memory but somehow I don't even have a single KB of space available in it. (it's hidden somewhere or some settings are altered i guess)
    Please do help me in this issue. Any help would greatly be appreciated.
    Thanks alot.
    P.S. just bought my phone a week ago

    I've tried Y-browser and Xplorer but it seems that no hidden files is of that size. And about the anti-virus, can I have the specific name for the program?
    It would really do me a great favor if you can tell me where does all the temporary installation files are located when installation runs its progress on the phone.
    I've considered hard resetting but I'm unsure of the effect after doing so. Will it wipe out all my data and settings in both phone and mass memory (C: and D?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Application Installer Problem

    I have created an application under Labview 8.2 and am now trying to create an installation which will enable me to run this executable on a target computer. I have specified Labview Runtime Engine 8.2 but when I try to run it on the taget pc the installer initializes but then returns with the error message "Labview 8.2".
    Another question is that I have a VISA Serial Subvi in the application will this be defined under NI VISA Runtime 4.0.
    A zip file of the project is attached.
    Best regards

    Did you include the serial port drivers as part of the build?
    You have to select (include) "VISA support" before creating the executable.
    In other words, when you build the installer, go to the additional installer page and select NI-VISA Run-time as a minimum. You can also include MAX and NI-VISA Configuration Support

  • MDT 2012 - Application installation Problem

    Hi
    I have a application called RES (RES Automation manager agent), should install after the OS deployment.
    But this is not happening. 
    How can i troubleshoot this?
    Is there are any logs to check the reason for not installing the package.
    Please suggest some fix.
    Attached the screen shot of the application.
     

    You pprobably need to add the silent switch.
    Try with msiexec.exe /i xxxx.msi /qn
    If that does not help you can try to log the msi installation by adding /l*v "logfile.log" , this will create a log file over the msi installation.

    Can anyone help me? Many thanks in advance!

    You may need to download the package again.

  • Photoshop installation problems - Windows 8.1

    So I got adobe elements 13 & adobe premiere elements 13 in which i recieved via a gift card. I have followed the instructions on how to install e.g
    1. visit the website
    2.enter the redemption code from the card
    3.download the software using the provided links
    4. install the software, enter the serial number when prompted.
    When i download the software, i clicked a little button at the bottom "open when installed". After 2 hours, it didn't open nor did any other tab appear on my screen. I went to downloads and the files are there, except no further installation process so i am currently stuck on what to do. I have restarted my laptop 2x and i cant find the files. I also went on control panel, uninstall a programme to see if it actually downloaded but it isn't there? I feel as if i have the folders and documents on my laptop except for the actual aplication.
    NEED SOME HELP

  • Weird application installation problem

    Hi,
    I have the following strange behaviour:
    I have an application called "ABCDAPPL", which is build and compiled on one
    node and manually copied to the "appdist" directory of the central node of
    the environment for which ABCDAPPL was build.
    When I execute the command "Component->Install" in E-console for this
    application (after having first done a "Load Distribution"), Forte creates a
    new directory called "ABCDAPP1" in the "appdist" directory, which only
    contains an empy "cl0" directory.
    In the "userapp" directory of the target node (which is the same node), both
    directories appear. The "ABCDAPPL" directory only contains a file called
    "apclscmp.fso" in the "cl0" directory. The "ABCDAPP1" directory only
    contains an empy "cl0" directory.
    Needless to say, starting the application using E-console generates an
    error. There are no executables or image repositories in the "userapp"
    directory.
    Has any seen this behaviour? And more importantly, does any one know of a
    fix?
