Can't complete installation

I was required to download the Quicktime update in order to access photos on the Verizon Photos site. However after I download the update and run the installation I get the message "X The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation. OK". I have Windows Vista, and have no idea how to correct this problem. Can anyone help?

If you right-click on the QuickTimeInstaller.exe (installer) file and select "Run as administrator", does that get you past the message?

Hi,
How do you connect the printer to the XP machine ? If USB, you need to make that machine as a Print server. Please try this:

I can't complete installation of Adobe Photoshop 11

I have been trying to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 & Premiere Elements 11 for several days with no success. My Photoshop installation is not completed & I can't seem to complete it. When I ask for help I get answers that are irrevelant. I found folders with thousands of my photo's from PE 4, but can't seem to access them as the installation of Photoshop 11 is incomplete. My Premiere Elements installation is completed in German which I don't speak. Wish I could talk to one of their so called experts but don't know how to contact one.

My suggestion, if I understand your predicament correctly, is to go to your programs list and completely unistall every version of elements that have on your computer, including the partially installed elements 11. It will not get rid of your pictures. Then, once all versions have been unistalled, try a brand new install with the CD, where it should allow you to chose the language at that time as well.

Help - can't complete installation!

Message comes up to the effect that installation cannot complete because a later version of itunes than provided on the set up disk has been detected. I have the latest version (7?). Looking at the set up guide (page 8), it states a later version is ok?
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks

Setup for Firefox does not run, so I can't complete installation

I deinstalled Firefox because it didn't run properly (ever since the latest update). Now I want to reinstall. Downloaded latest version. The thing extracts a 'setup' but clicking this doesn't prompt anything at all. I simply can't figure out why it won't run. Now I need to use Internet Explorer, which I don't like at all.

Hi!
In general this is caused by certain add-ons that block the graphic.
Please, try to run the set up process in [[Safe Mode]] and let me know if it helps (the link give you details about how to start your browser in Safe Mode).

HT202159 iPhoto 9.4.2 upgrade error on Mac mini 5,1 running Mtn. Lion. Can't complete installation.

Have Macmini5,1 (2011) and iPhoto 9.2.2 using Mtn Lion 10.8.2. After 10.8.2 purchase and installation, iMovie and iPhoto updates were identified in the Mac App Store for installation. iMovie update went fine, iPhoto 9.4.2 got to 99% and then got an installation error. Went to 'Purchases' pull-down and re-tried update but same error. Not sure what next step should be.

Ok, let's try to update it through a New User Test Account.

[SOLVED] Can't Complete Installation

I wiped my drive and did a remote install, which went mostly great, I even got an internet connection. The problem is, when I get to the install packages stage, everything fails. I tried pacman -Syu which outputs
:: Synchronizing package databases...
error: failed to update core (unexpected error)
error: failed to update extra (unexpected error)
error: failed to update community (unexpected error)
error: failed to synchronize any databases
I looked at my mirrorlist.conf, which had no commented mirrors. So, I commented all but a few. Still, I get the same result. Any ideas?
Thanks, ~ Unsolved Cypher

Instead of pressing Ctrl+alt+delete to login it just needs to say to continue using, please reinstall.
Curious if he's using the core install that he doesn't really need the network part to do his install (I don't think he's using that).
But the pacman messages say unexpected error. If it was network error, would be transient resolver error. Maybe a pacman --debug would help us.

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I repurchased Garageband and I can't get passed the complete installation. I don't seem to have the "com.apple.garageband.plist" file that has been a common solution. Any suggestions?

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I repurchased Garageband and I can't get passed the complete installation. I've read through several posts that all reference the "com.apple.garageband.plist" solution. I don't seem to have the referenced .plist. Any solutions or suggestions?

Did you upgrade from SnowLeopard?
I can't get passed the complete installation
What exactly is happening? Is GarageBand trying to download over and over again?

The property list stores your preferences, but also the settings from the last run of the application. If that file is corrupted in some way, you might see third behaviour.
You must have this file, for it will be recreated automatically, if it is missing, or you have a permissions problem with your user library.
Perhaps you did look in he wrong place.
in MacOS 10.7. or later the User Library is hidden. To find the Preferences Files use the Finder's "Go" menu:
Quit GarageBand, if it is running.
Click onto you Desktop to bring the Finder forward.
In the Finder Menu press "Go" and hold down the "option/alt" key, until your user library appears in the drop-down menu
Select "Library" and in the Finder window that opens navigate to the "Prederences" folder; move com.apple.garageband.plist to the Desktop.
Log off and on again (don't skip that step!). Retry GarageBand and see if it GarageBand is now downloading the missing content properly.
If that does not fix the problem, post back and explain in more detail what the download problem is.
Why did you "repurchase" GarageBand? If you already owned GarageBand '11, it should be unnecessary.

I am not able to install my 'Complete National Geographic' cd on my Mac mini which runs Lion OS. The error message I get says 'Can't open installer as classic environment is no longer supported' can some one suggest a solution

I am not able to install my 'Complete National Geographic' cd on my Mac mini which runs Lion OS. The error message I get says 'Can't open installer as classic environment is no longer supported' can some one suggest a solution.

It means the software is PowerPC code, which is no longer supported in Lion. Your choices are to go back to Snow Leopard, run Snow Leopard Server in a virtual machine within Lion, see if the vendor has an updated version of National Geographic that will run on an Intel Mac, or run the software on an older Mac separately.

Can't complete OS X Mavericks installation on MacBook Pro

I've downloaded the OS X Mavericks upgrade on my MacBook Pro, but when I install it, it keeps getting stuck at the installer where it says "Time Remaining: Completing installation... Your computer will restart automatically" but it NEVER restarts! I've tried it several times already, but it keeps getting stuck there...
Can anyone tell me what I should do? I can't even quit the installer and just not do the upgrade. I'm just STUCK THERE. Please help!!

Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. Try the installation in the Safe Mode. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem.

Can't install:"1628: Failed to complete installation."

Upon double-clicking on OracleXE.exe (165.332.312 byte, production), I receive a dialog box stating "1628: Failed to complete installation".
I have MSIExec.exe version 3.1.4000.1823 on my system.
I've followed the instructions (looking for still-running install processes, clearing the temp directory, making sure I have a current Windows Installer) and none work.
I don't found in temp directory an OracleDatabaseExpressInstall.log.
I have Windows Xp Pro Sp2, 1Gb ram, Sempron 2600+, Hd 80 Gb.
I have setting language from Italian to English (US).
On an other pc is all ok.

You can find OracleDatabaseExpressInstall.log in the %SystemRoot% directory, not in in the "temp" Directory. Often the %SystemRoot% is C:\WINDOWS.
Do you use a "Local Administrator" to install XE ?

Can't complete windows installation - Stuck at Press any key to boot from..

I am unable to install windows xp service pack 3 or windows 7 on to my iMac running latest boot camp installer. I can start the installation process, but when windows installer completes copying all the files on to the boot camp partition and reboots the system I get stuck at this message "PRESS ANY KEY TO BOOT FROM A CD OR DVD", which won't go away even if I wait for 10-15 minutes. To get rid of this I have to hard reset the iMac by pressing the power button for a few seconds and then boot into Mac HD using the option key.
Please advise if I need to tweak some settings to complete the installation or if you need more information to resolve this issue. Thanks!

I was able to complete the installation process by formatting the windows bootcamp partition through windows installer (and not using Mac disk utility to format the partition into NTFS format). Hope this helps someone.

Java_es_05q1-windows-x86 install fails 1628: Failed to complete installation on windows xp pro sp2

Hi All,
I'm trying to install Java ES 2005Q1 on my windows xp pro sp2 notebook, but it always breaks with this error message: 1628: Failed to complete installation
I realized that the SUNJavaES.log always ends at line 151 which is 131077 characters long.
These are the last few characters of this line: ..." AD_MANUAL_ES_CONSOLE_HELP=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Server-Root\manua l\es\console\help\ AD_MANUAL_FR_ADMIN=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Server-Root\manual\fr\ad min\ AD_MANUAL_FR_ADMIN_HELP=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Serve "
I attached the last log file.
This line always breaks at the 131077th char independently of the content of it. I tried to skip some components of JES to see what will occur. The current content of this line obviously was different, but it has broken at the same point.
Thanks in advence for any help.

This could be due to a known issue with length of installation path
Can you try and install in a location with less than 8 characters ?
eg: C:\JES05q1 or C:\Sun

The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "Adobe Acrobat" can't be read or written. (Error code - 36)

I recently did a clean install on a 2011 MacBook Pro with Mavericks. Went to install Adobe Acrobat 9 with the DVD media and about 3/4 of the way through the install, the install stopped and the following window appeared: The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "Adobe Acrobat" can't be read or written. (Error code - 36). I've tried to install a few times and get the same message. Is Adobe Acrobat 9 incompatible with Mavericks. I've seen some posts on Apple Support Communities indicating that it is indeed compatible, but no explanation why the error pops up.

The hard drive may be dying anyway, or the directory damaged because it is so full. You should never let the hard drive get over 85% full.
A -36 error is a read/write error.
All you did with the power is reset the SMC. Does nothing to reset everything to factory settings.
Do you have your original 10.4 installer discs for the MacBook?
Is your data backed up?

Windows 7 install stuck on "completing installation"

Hey guys,
Iv been trying to install Windows 7 on my Macbook Pro 13'' mid summer - 2010 from bootcamp. Im running 10.7.3. Everytime I try to install windows It gets stuck on "Completing installation" Iv left it running for hours (4-5 hours) and nothing is changing. I have an image if it helps..

Oddly enough, I have had windows 7 installed on this Mac before but then I deleted and now I am looking to get it back (I am using the same disc I had used the previous time). Iv looked around for days for any solutions that have been found but nothing has worked so far. If anyone can help me it be great!

My 2006 is also liist on the uncompatible list. So there is an extra step to reburn the DVD.
Round about way of saying you bought System Builder? rather than retail which costs more but has both.
You might also have been better with pre-SP1 if you could find it. That does get mentioned from some users.
For free there are Windows 8 CP edition (and release candidate in June) to try, those you do burn from ISO to DVD. Try that.
ALL the support docs, faq etc and manual: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp
For 2010 iMac there is a driver for ATI. By not telling us what model mac, or whether Lion or not - so you downloaod Apple drivers from BCA
