Cannot install new Lightroom. Keep getting error code 58

Cannot install new lightroom CC. Keep getting message of error code 58.

It's usually a better bet with a 2330, but I think we'd better check for disk/file damage on your C drive.
The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

After upgrading iphone 5 to iOS 7, I cannot install new apps

After upgrading iphone 5 to iOS 7, I cannot install new apps. I get the message that I must first read and agree to iTunes terms and conditions. I read the terms and conditions online, but I don't see a way to agree when I install or re-install iTunes 11.1. I can update existing apps ok, though.
Anyone have this problem and find solution?

Cannot install new iTunes (Error 2324)

Installing an iPhone5 on a PC with an old version of iTunes, tried to download new version and came back with error 2324. Tried to uninstall, same error.
Things I have tried:
User has local admin rights,
Have tried microsoft fix on this page: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
Tried CCLeaner
Cannot do in safe mode as no installer service running.
If anyone has any ideas please let me know!

I cannot install either and getting same error code 2324. there are some fixes out ther but they all cost money. Apple has gotta come up with a fix. why should we pay another company to be able to download an apple program. I am in a real bind because I need to manage my music for new years party and now I don't have itunes at all. Anyone know how to download an older version?
I HATE the new itunes format too.

Cannot install new itunes update windows 7

I get the following error message when I try to update to the new iTunes version:
"The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK to try again or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes64.msi' in the box below.
Use source:
C:\Users\****\App Data\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update\iTunes64.msi"
****=My name
I am trying to install the latest version and have been receiving the same error message for about a month. After that message this one pops up:
"The path C:\Users\****\App Data\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update\iTunes64.msi" cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes64.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes"
And then this one:
"Errors occurred while installing the updates. If the problem persists, choose Tools > Download Only and try installing manually."
When I use Download Only and try to install manually as suggested, I get this message:
"The older version of iTunes cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group."
Can anyone please help me resolve this?
Thank you!

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Cannot install new software - adobe acrobat 9 pro

Hi
I have just upgraded my system software to Snow Leopard Mac OS X 10.6.3 so that I could install new software - Adobe CS5 Design Premium.
System upgarde went perfectly, installation of all other software in CS5 went perfectly and now all I need to do is install Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. I drag the folder from the CD into my Applications folder but it does not complete the process of copying it and comes up with the folowing error message:
'The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in Adobe Acrobat Pro can't be read or written (Error code -36)'
Prior to this installation attempt I removed Acrobat 8 as instructions that came with 9 indicated that I needed to do this. The only other info that may be relevant is that this software is an upgrade pack from Adobe CS2, though I did not have CS2 on this particluar computer. It was on a different computer.
regards
Lorna

To download Acrobat 9 Professional :
Go to the web page : http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=acrobat_pro&loc=en
Login with your Adobe ID and Password. Now instead of clicking on the download button copy and paste the following link on the address bar and hit enter :http://trials2.adobe.com/Applications/Acrobat/APRO/9/trials/AcroPro90_ efg.exe
This is the direct download link for Acrobat 9.
Note : This link would only work from the downloads page of Acrobat 10.

Download the offline installer from http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1195540 and save it to disk.
In order to make sure that no previous installer is running, restart your computer, then run the downloaded installer.

Alienware - Area 51 Windows XP Pro

ok I'm good to go.
I had to uninstall QT first, used the Windows Installer clean up (found in another post) and used it to remove the iTunes installer left in the system.
After uninstalling QT and using the Installer clean up, I then used the iTunes newer version to update and all is well. It even shows up in my Add/Remove programs now!
PHEW! Panic attack.
:P
You can delete this thread if you like, Mods. My problem is cleared now.
