Can't install games in applications

I've been trying to install games from the apple website, just dumb, simple ones like Diner Dash, and I can get it to download, but once I try to install it I get an error message that says "installation finished with errors"
When I look at the log, it says:
Error = Creating directory at "/Applications/Cooking Dash.app" failed.
Error installing "helper" to "/Applications/Cooking Dash.app/Contents/MacOS".
Error = Could not create directory /Applications/Cooking Dash.app".
There's nothing that pops up asking for my password so I can add something to the applications folder, and I've tried installing the program both while the installer was on the desktop and after putting it in the applications folder.
I need some games to play on this thing so if anyone could help me, that'd be great

I am having a similar issue. I have been trying to download, install and run some mac games and they will download and act like they have installed but when I click the icons nothing will run. And this is EVERY time with EVERY game. Any suggestions??? Please...? I have NO games and want to have some to play with. Thanks.

I brought I pad air 3 months ago, but recently I can't install any application and can't make an update. Even I can't install the free application. I can see ... There is a previous purchase problem please Singh up your bank information again. Plz help

Hi , I brought an I pad air 3 months ago. But recently I can't install any application and can't update any application. Even I can't install any free application. I can see one dialogue box about in red colors " there is a previous purchase problem please type your bank information correctly" . So I don't know what to do please help me. Thanks

The message implies that a previous purchase may not have been paid-for due to problems collecting the money from your account. Have you tried logging into your account and updating/changing your payment details (tap on your in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad and tap 'view Apple id' on the popup and sign into it) ? Until there is an accepted payment method on your account (credit card, redeemed iTunes gift cards) and what you owe has been paid then you won't be able to download anything (including app updates).

Hi grampaz,
A Windows 7 smartphone does not support HP ePrint Home & biz app if that's what you are referring to. You can use ePrint with any email-capable device and print to an ePrint enabled printer. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02759940&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lang...

Server manager hangs on collecting data, i can't install/uninstall any applications, mmc works on random, no errors in any logs

Hi, ive been searching around for for 4-5 hours on google and here and I'm turning a bit desperate
I rebooted the server today, and after that it just hangs on collecting data, mmc stuff works on random, I got evenviewer open, and checked system and application, but it only showed exchange alerts etc, according to itself, everything is fine, which is it not, I can't goto control panel, can't install/uinstall software, cant run windows update, can't connect via RDP etc.
I tried misc solutions I found, like this
1. Click Start->Run...->type msconfig and press Enter
2. Click Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services and Disable All third party Services.
3. Click Startup tab and Disable All startup items
4. Click OK and choose Restart
but msconfig just hangs when I click OK.
server is a DL380G5 with 64 bit

Hi,
First I would like to confirm the following points:
1.    Had any changes been made on the computer before the issue began to occur, such as an installation or upgrade?
2.    Does any error message appear or does it just hang when opening Control Panel, install/uninstall software, run Windows Update, connect RDP?
3.    Have you installed any anti-virus programs on the computer?
First let’s delete the Server Manager cache files in C:\Windows\System32\ServerManager\Cache.
If it still hangs, I suggest booting into Safe Mode.
Please restart the computer, keep pressing F8 and enter Safe Mode.
Does the hanging issue also occur in Safe Mode? If not, let’s try the steps below in Safe Mode again:
1. Click Start->Run->type msconfig and press Enter.
2. Click Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services and Disable All third party Services.
3. Click Startup tab and Disable All startup items.
4. Click OK and choose Restart.
What’s the result in Normal Mode now?
If the issue persists, please boot into Safe Mode and run your anti-virus programs perform a complete virus scan.
If the issue still occurs after scanning for viruses, please send the System Inforamtion to me for further research:
1. Press Start, type in msinfo32 in the Start Search bar and then press Enter.
2. Choose Save from the File menu and save it as an NFO file.
3. Find the file, right-click on this file, click "Send To", and click "Compressed (zipped) Folder".
4. Upload the compressed file to me from the following site:

Windows 2003 ..can't install any CS4 applications

I use Windows 2003 as my workstation and for the past two days I've been trying to install trial CS4 applications but with no luck.
I've been using CS3 for a long time now without issues, installs perfectly using Application Verifier. I uninstalled CS3 before attempting CS4 installation.
I tried many things but no matter what I do it always gets to 90% on "checking system profile", then "Loading Setup" splash screen pops up for few seconds but than goes away and "checking system profile" is still there at 90% and never goes any further. I can see it using a bit of CPU and memory usage changes while it's there but it never goes any further.
I tried uninstalling all Adobe apps, except for Lightroom as I'm a little nervous about losing things, but it didn't help. I used both CS3 and CS4 cleanup scripts. I used two different admin accounts, disabled antivirus but nothing.
Log file doesn't show any errors as far as why the installation stops.
I tried standalone versions of Photoshop CS4 and Dreamweaver CS4, they both show Loading Setup panel for few seconds but than setup.exe crashes. I tried faking WinXP SP2 and SP3 with application verifier but it makes no difference.
I'm out of ideas, formatting the system is really not an option, I have too many things.
My setup:
OS: Win 2003 Std
CPU: Core2Quad Q6600
RAM: 4 GB
HD: WD VelociRaptor
Video: GForce 6600GT

Actually Windows 2003 Server is not basically Windows XP on steroids and similarly, Windows 2008 Server is not basically Windows Vista on steroids. There are some significant differences between the desktop and server versions of Windows these days, especially related to security in terms of how applications are installed and what they can do. I learned about this the hard way when I tried to setup a new system with Windows 2003 Server instead of Windows XP Pro back in 2003 or so (primarily to get AppleTalk and MacOS file system compatibility services). Even then many applications and pieces of system software just wouldn't install.
Back to Adobe, we specifically have
not tested the CS4 suite or any of its application (other than InDesign Server 6) on any of the server versions of Windows. We don't claim compatibilty of same with CS4 in any of the system requirements. You will get any support this from Adobe Technical Support.

Can't install the Bundled applications from the Applications Install Disc

Hi.
I can't install the bundled software, such as iphoto and so on. It says something about installation failed, without a fail code????? please help me it is so annoying! Ps. the Mac has i completly reinstalled MAC OSX on!

I was having the same issue after reinstalling a MacBook Pro 17 with OS X 10.6.6 this weekend.
When trying to install the Applications Install DVD, I got the message "An unknown installation error has occurred".
I connected the MacBook Pro to the Internet and let it download software updates. After rebooting, it had updated to OS X 10.6.8. Applications Install DVD came back with same error. Then the software updates ran again and this time there was an Apple Software Installer Update 1.0 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1512) . After this update, the Applications Install DVD loaded fine.
Hope this works for you.

Qosmio X775: Can I install games on HDD instead of SSD?

Hey everyone,
I just got a new Qosmio X775, it has a 64gb ssd and a 1TB hdd.
Just wondering how does the sdd work? It doesn't have enough space to install games ect...
it has windows 7 OS installed on it.
Do i just install all my games into the hdd and use the sdd for a few things?
Can someone please explain to me how they are used?.
thanks .

I agree with Akuma
The SSD drive is much faster than the HDD and therefore the Windows OS is installed on the SSD which helps to boot the notebook faster.
The HDD is recognized in My Computer and can be used for other stuff like data, games, 3rd party software
I recommend creating an additional folder on the HDD. For example Game folder, Movie folder, Music folder, etc
During game installation you should point to the game folder of HDD other multimedia (jpeg, avi, etc) files dont need any installation and can be copied and pasted into these single folders.

CS4 Master suite; can I install non intel applications on PPC G5?

Hi, I would like to install the CS4 Master suite on both my Intel G5, but also, if possible, Photoshop and Indesign onto my old PPC G5 too. I know the Master suite is specified as Intel only, but does anyone know if it is still possible to install the UB applications it contains?
Thanks in advance!

Andy,
>To my horror, I read on the box it only works on Intel machines. Would have been helpful if Adobe had made it clear on main page of web site.
If you spend that kind of money for anything, you simply do your due diligence
before purchasing. And Adobe
does have a clear link to system requirements for each app on its pages.
For the Master Collection, on the main page: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection the link is near the top of the white panel on the right. That link takes you to: http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/mastercollection/systemreqs where the very first bullet-point is "Multicore Intel® processor"
And the specs do not say, "Also runs on PowerPC G5 computers" because some of the included apps don't. The minimum system requirements to run
all included apps includes the multicore Intel Mac.

Can I install WebCenter with Application Server 10.1.2.0 ?

Hi all
I have installed Application Server R2 10.1.2.0 (Infr + mid-tier)
to deploy some Portals .
and I would like to build & deploy my Applications JSF/ADF + Portlets
using Jeveloper 10.1.3.2 Studio Edition (JDeveloper + ADF + WebCenter Extension)
do I need to install Oracle WebCenter Suite 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.2.0)
with Application Server R2
OR JDeveloper 10.1.3.2 + AS R2 is enough
OR what ?
thanks

I think the question was about requirements to create and run WebCenter centric applications and portlets in general. Please correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the context of the question about reuse of an existing AS 10gR2 platform? This would only make sense if the existing platform could be used for any parts of the Webcenter application - JSF runtime and portlets. Webcenter has to be setup on a 10gR3 container so you have at least one 10gR3 instance involved - at least for the Webcenter app. So why should you have an interest to mix up your application architecture with a 10gR2 based portlet deployment
Also, if you want to use a 10gR2 container for your portlets you can only build portlets based on a 10gR2 PDK/portlet container. A 10gR3 PDK requires a 10.1.3.1 minimum release of the OC4J. Hence a 10gR2 for portlets doesn't make any sense for a Webcenter application.
