Cannot install apps (IPhoto etc) after full OS reinstallation

Hi All,
After full MacOS reinstallation (10.6.4) I cannot install apps (IPhoto, IMovie, etc) from DVD - "Unknown error" ("Pls contact soft producer") just after admin password during instalation process.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Mark

Hello Carolyn,
I've found finally your hint very usefull.
Actuallu the full explanation is available here :
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3866345?start=0&tstart=0
But what you've said is a part of it.
So - all pending updates must be made (several restart and update check) - after that there is no more porblem with apps instalation.
Thank you very much!
Mark

    Hi, after installing Adobe CC I tried opening Adobe Photoshop. This failed.
    I get the opening window where it says installing plugins searching etc, after which PS opens in full screen.
    Just moments after that there's a failure warning, no code number, only the warning that PS failed to open and PS will close.
    I tried downloading it for a second time, but this did'nt solve the problem.
    Befor the CC version I used a one year student version of Adobe CS6.
    What can I do?

  • Cannot open apps iPhoto and Aperture after updates

    Cannot open apps iPhoto and Aperture after updates. I'm operating ML on mbpro.  Now apps will not open.  Simply that. 

    Not simple, if as ML implies you are running Mountain Lion!  If you only mean Lion, then it would be useful for you to open another User Account, and as that User test to see if either app will launch?

  • Cannot install apps directly; no error msgs; AppleID okay

    Yesterday, in the middle of upgrading an app on my iOS 7.1.1, I tried to install another app and it prompted me to enter my AppleID password. From that time selecting any app from the App Store on my device would SILENTLY not do anything, ie. Click on FREE --> Click on INSTALL --> after a few moment the icon would revert to FREE, ie. No error messages, nothing, ziltch, nada !!
    I then spent hours not finding any exact same problem on numerous forums, but found a similar problem, albeit with Apple actually bothering to give an error message, on this blog:
    [LINK#1]
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/102935/cant-install-apps-from-app-store -on-iphone-with-ios-7
    What disgusted me all the way through my search was the IDIOTIC advice that Apple was consistently giving users with similar problems – they had them upgrading to the latest iOS (what a waste of time, as when you happily have a stable platform, you have to deal with a whole new set of things not working – theoretically could be okay, but Apple have consistently proven they ****-up every iOS release), and then fully resetting their device and wiping out all their settings (doesn’t seem to bother Apple to waste their customers time).
    After successfully fixing the problem, you realise when reading the other blogs that Apple knows what the problem is, but due to their obsession with a sealed user-de-enabled environment, they don’t want to provide access to the tools (why not? You’d think by iOS 7 they could have by now integrated soft recovery tools safely in the OS), but would rather make users corrupt their devices by dancing them in circles rather than admit what the problem is, and that 3rd party tools can fix.
    The solution? This linked blog indicates Apple get a corruption in their SQLite database that manages downloads. I installed macroplant.com’s iExplorer (I have no affiliation) and voila! renamed the offending file, and after a sluggish 30 minutes (where is was likely rebuilding the file), I could then install apps  again on my device. NOTE: no upgrading to later buggy iOS version, and no resetting my device and wiping out all my good work.

    SYMPTON:
    Cannot install apps directly on Apple iPhone / iPad / iPod with no error messages.  User AppleID and other settings are correct and confirmed.
    RESOLUTION:
    Used 3rd party tool (get it and install it now before they remove the free DEMO mode) – macroplant.com – “iExplorer”
    QUESTION:
    If Apple insist on having a closed / sealed user environment, why (given how many iOS iterations they have gone through) haven’t they included the tools in the iOS to fix database corruptions without dancing users through timewasting upgrades and wiping out their settings, when this won’t fix the problem?

    By god, it works!!!!!!!       Thanks Tim
    Now this would not be a permanent solution - disabling zonealarm everytime I want to sync. What is the perrmanent solution?

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

  • I cannot install apps on my iPhone or iPad over WiFi

    I have erased my iPhone, changed my Credit Card, changed my passwords, reset my wifi router. There is nothing more to do. Can anyone help me install apps on my iPhone? I've never had this problem before. I simply cannot install apps. The end. Not updates, not new purchases, not free purchases, nothing.

    You can turn off iTunes match from settings> music> iTunes match> off. However you may wish to simply hide the content which is not on your phone until you are in a location where you are able to download content that isn't. You can do this at settings> music> show all music> off.

  • Cannot install apps or remove policies w/ strict MDM policy already in place

    I installed an MDM policy through Apple Configurator.  That policy temporarily has installing apps disabled.
    When connecting an iPad to my computer and running Configurator, it does not allow me to override that profile to install apps, nor does it let me remove the profile, even though the profile was installed with the Configurator in the first place.
    This is becoming a hassle specifically when a student forgets their passcode and the iPad disconnects from the WiFi.  Because I cannot install apps, and in turn remove profiles, I cannot wipe the passcode on the iPad without wiping the whole device.
    Is there a way to update through configurator without installing apps?  I know I can deselect them, but I don't want to uninstall them due to the fact that students have lots of work saved in some of those apps.
    Any suggestions?

    The GPO message turned out to be a complete red herring. Here's how I resolved it:
    Go to the Add or Remove Programs section of Control Panel and remove the SQL Server Setup Support Files.
    Browse to C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootsrap\Cache\SQLSupport\x86\1033 and run SqlSupport.msi
    Run the Service Pack 2 installer again, the Setup Support Files should show status 'Upgraded' on the feature selection page. The rest of the installation should complete successfully.
    I hope this helps!

  • I cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4.. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    i cannot install apps that are upgraded to ios4. im using iphone 2g 3.1.3 this makes me sad.. why does apple need to updates many apps when we cannot update an iphone 2g anymore..

    I am having the exact same problem with trying to sync my iPad with my computer. To make a long story short, I had to reinstall Windows for my computer and therefore had to reinstall itunes.
    I have done back ups in the past for my ipod touch and other ipods with no problems, but unfortunately I have never been able to back up my iPad. During a sync, the iPad would always disconnect from my computer and it would never finish. it would say the connection was lost, but nothing is wrong with the connection.
    So now I have over 100 apps and thousands of pictures that I am afraid will be deleted if I run the sync in itunes. I have tried to transfer purchases and it goes through the list of apps, but nothing is ever transferred.
    Any help would be appreciated. I am not interested in jailbreaking my iPad to solve this problem. There should be a fix for this and I want to upgrade to ios 4.3 as the original poster. Please help

    You are aware that you can only sync apps using iTunes and that the apps must be from Apple app store?

  • Cannot install apps from App Store after iOS 7.04 upgrade

    Hi everyone
    I am new to iPad and Apple, and wonder if someone can please help me with this problem. I upgraded to iOS 7.04 yesterday, and today I cannot install any new apps from the App Store. Before the upgrade I could do this no problem. The 2 apps I am trying to download are free ones - eBay and Yahoo Mail.
    I have tried to search for a solution in the discussions on here, but have only found threads from Sept 13, which point to Apple's servers being overloaded and people should wait until after the hubbub of the recent upgrade has died down. As it's now Feb 14, I would have thought things would be ok now, so feel my problem maybe nothing to do with that.
    Two other bits of advice I found, I have also checked...... The date and time in settings are correct, and I believe I am signed in (but only because a 'sign in' is not showing so that's my assumption). The only advice I have not tried is hitting reset on my iPad as I'm nervous of loosing my stuff.
    When I go into the App Store, select the app I want, click 'free' and then 'install', the blue spinning arrow appears. I leave it to install, but when I check later, it's still spinning. I've even left it a good 15 mins, which for those 2 apps would be way more time than needed.
    Has anyone else has this same problem, and successfully found a solution? I would really appreciate some advice please.
    Thanks, Vikki

    Try this, press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. If they don't download at least the timer should stop.

  • Cannot install Apps After installing 5.0 to my iphone

    cannot install any Apps After installing 5.0 to my iphone 
    After installation begins at the and it shoves deleting logo and stays the same. (no Apps installed)
    please heeeeeeelp!!!!!

    You can re-download apps for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . If you download them to your computer's iTunes you could then try restoring to your iTunes backup and see if the apps and their old content/settings get copied over.

  • I cannot install apps on iphone 3gs. It shows that app is installing after entering password and then it quits.  I can still update apps

    After I enter my password, it shows that it is installing app then it goes back to the install app screen.  I can still update apps though.  I updated my software to iOS 6.1.3 and that did not help.  I do not receive any error messages.

    Did you find a solution for this? I have a user at work with this exact issue but on their iPhone 4S.
    Thanks
