Can't install desktop software--error message
When I first tried to install the desktop software from the disk that came with my phone, something went wrong and the installation was incomplete. I am unable to uninstall and start over, however, because when I open the Add or Remove Programs feature in the control panel, no blackberry software comes up as an option to remove.
When I try to initiate the intallation process again (whether by disk or by download), I get the following error message in a box that says "InstallShield" at the upper left:
An error occurred while downloading the file http://saturn.installshield.com/is/prerequisites/microsoft.net framework 2.0 sp1.prq. What would you like to do?
I then have the option to retry or cancel. If I hit retry, I get the same message. If I hit cancel, I get the message:
An error occurred while downloading the file http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/8/c/08c19fa4-4c4f4ffb-9d6c-150906578c9e/NetFx20SP1_x86.exe. What would you like to do?
Again, I have to option to retry or cancel. If I hit cancel, I get the message:
The files for installation requirement Nicrosoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP1 could not be found. The installation will now stop. This is probably due to a failed, or canceled download.
This time, I can click Yes or No.
Any suggestions how I can get the desktop software installed onto my computer?
Thanks!
Annie
Yes Microsoft removed it from their site, that's why I linked to the other site where you can download it from.
In the past if the clean uninstall steps for the Desktop Manager didn't work, than the windows utility always did the trick

Can't install Desktop Software properly with out Error 1406
Hello All,
I am running Win 7. Just can't seem to get the desktop software installed witout the Error 1406 coming up. I have tried doing a clean uninstall a few times but still can't get done.
I have no trouble with getting it done in XP on my other compters!
Here's the full Error messege;
Could not write value discription to key \Software\MozillaPlugins\@Rim.com/webSLLauncher,
version =1.0. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support personnel.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Hi there!
I agree...a full start over is in order. And, for your easier reference, here is the procedure that I give out.
I suggest the following steps (insert plenty of reboots of your PC...not just restarts, but full power down reboots). Also, it is advised that you be logged into the PC on an account with full admin rights. Further, under Vista/Win7, use the "Run As Administrator" option for everything.
1) Remove your device OS update package from your PC (add/remove programs)
2) Cleanly uninstall the RIM DTM software:
KB02206 How to perform a clean uninstall of BlackBerry Desktop Software
Some have reported that there are more registry keys to remove than are discussed in that KB
Others have reported the use of a registry cleansing tool to also be helpful
3) Get a fresh download of the RIM DTM software:
https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/entry.do?code=A8BAA56554F96369AB93E4F3BB068C22
Choose the version that is newest and (if applicable) compatible with your PIM (if you are synchronizing via USB):
KB12268 Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Manager for synchronization
4) Download (to your PC) a fresh copy of your device OS package from your carrier:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
5) Install DTM to your PC
6) Install (also to your PC), the device OS package
Hopefully that will get things going again.
Good luck and let us know!

Can't install desktop software

"An error occured while installing one or more of the macros used by the Palm Desktop software.
Microsoft Word macro error.
Unable to write to directory; application my be running. Macro will be to the Palm Desktop directory.
Microsoft Excel macro error.
Unable to write to directory; application my be running. Macro will be to the Palm Desktop directory.
Press next to continue with installation. Or press cancel to exit Setup; then close Microsoft Word and Excel and run setup again.
Refer to readme.txt for more information."
Well, the thing is that i am positve that i am not running any of those programs.
2: When I click next after the first problem appears another dialog box(title:Component Transfer error) appears and says:
"Component: Disk<1>
File group: < Disk1>Disk1 files(1)
File: C:\Program Files\InstallSheild Installation Information\{BA0F-44C2-A883-11D1-AD0A-006097D15E2C}\

So what i would like to know is what to do in this situation to complete the installation.

Trouble Installing CS4 software, Error message keeps popping up
I currently have Photoshop CS3 on my computer (Windows) and I'm trying to install the disc for Creative Suite 4, Design Premium. Before the installation even starts an error message pops up that states, "Can't find file:///E:Adobe%20CS4/resources/main.html. Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how did you resolve the issue. Thanks in advance.
Sounds like a bad disk. Can you try it on a different computer? Can you
copy it to your harrdrive?

I installed a new printer and now Photoshop Elements tells me I can't print. The error message is "The saved printer information is not compatible with this version of Photoshop Elements, or the saved printer is no longer available. You will need to check your printer settings before printing." I have uninstalled and re-installed Photoshop Elements, checked my printer settings and still I can't print a photo.
Hi ,
Please update to PSE 13.1

Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server. this is the message that i get a few days now that i am trying to install windows through boot camp to my macbook!does anybody knows what i can do????
You keep it on the usb stick for after you boot into Windows. From Windows you install the Windows Support software on the stick. Do you realize that you need to buy and install Windows? The Windows Support software you downloaded is only the Windows drivers for your hardware.
Read the Boot Camp installation instructions and help guides located here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/ -
I try to get Windows 7 on my iMac 21.5-inch but on the Bootcamp Assistant I get this message,"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server." Please help me and thank you.
I have that problem too. There's many other discussion threads as well. Either Apple doesn't realize they have a problem, or they do and simply don't care. Either way, not good.
There is a workaround that I'm going to try next. Go to this webpage:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
Scroll down to the middle of the webpage. Hit "Expand All". Now, search the webpage for the Apple product name of your computer. It should be something like "MacBook Pro, 17-inch, Early 2008". If you're unsure what you have, open "About This Mac" (upper left corner of your screen, Apple menu), and hit "More Info".
Now that you've found your computer, read across the table, to the version of Windows that you want to install (32-bit or 64-bit). Hopefully you'll find a "4" or "5" there. Click on that number, to go to the download page for the drivers that you need. If you just see an empty box there, then you're out of luck....
Hopefully there will be drivers. Download those, unzip, and then copy to a USB stick that has been formatted for MS-DOS FAT (or FAT32). Use Disk Utility to format your USB stick if necessary. Now, you have the drivers you should have gotten from the Boot Camp Assistant download. You should then be able to go back to Boot Camp Assistant and follow the instructions from there.
Hope it works!

I use a Macbook Pro 13" mid 2010 on Mavericks and I've tried using the Boot Camp assistant to download support software for Windows 7. This gives the error "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."
Further, I tried to separately download Boot Camp 4 and 5. When I do this and try to install from Windows 7, it says that this version of Boot Camp is not for this computer and doesn't install. The result is that I have Windows 7 working and installed, but am unable to use the trackpad to rightclick, brightness settings, etc.
Please help!
ThanksYou need to run Bootcamp Assistant and select only the menu item to download the Windows Support Software. Follow the instructions. The download servers are extremely slow therefore it may take several hours to get the download.

hi there i was trying to install windows via bootcamp and when i was trying to download the support software i had an error of "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server." i am using a 15" 2009 macbook pro and the bootcamp version is 5.1.0 (473). can anyone help? thanks in advanced
Instead of downloading the Windows support software from Boot Camp Assistant, download it from the Apple website. Mid 2009 and older MacBooks Pro only support this Windows support software version > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1630 This version allows you to install a 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7 version.

Hi, trying to watch Sky TV on laptop - installed Silverlight but error message says unable to watch Sky while in a private browser. Can I come out of this thru Firefox?
There has been a change in where Firefox searches for plugins and the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder is no longer scanned for plugins, so Firefox won't find them anymore if they are installed in the plugins folder instead of the "browser\plugins" folder that Firefox now scans.
You can set the plugins.load_appdir_plugins pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox scan the "<install>/plugins/" directory for plugins like the WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll).
You can alternatively move plugins from "<install directory>\plugins\" to "<install directory>\browser\plugins\" (create this folder when missing) to make Firefox find them again.

Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server...what does this mean? I'm trying to install windows 8.1 on my early 2009 iMac. I double check with telephone support to make sure I am able.
Assuming you are referring to the Windows Support software, normally it means the download server is busy or off line. If you know what version of the support software you need you can get it here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/downloads/
But in your case since you have an early 2009 iMac, your computer does not support Windows 8.1. See this table from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
