Cannot install/uninstall/debug my app

Hi,
when I was trying to install my app from Store yesterday, WP8.1 Silverlight app on Lumia 1520 with 8.1 Dev Preview, the installation got stucked and I had to restart my phone. After the restart
I can no longer install this app from Store, it always ends with the same error. I cannot even install this app from Visual Studio.
Error 6
Installation of the application failed. The application is already installed, or update or uninstall is running.
Note I can install and uninstall other apps from Store, another phone restart and Soft Reset has not fixed this. The app is also not listed in the installed app list.
I know that changing the app identity in manifest should work for deploying from Visual Studio, but the problem is here installation of the app from Store. I need to test the functionality of the actually published and that's not possible right now.
Is there anything I can do, is there maybe some installation cleanup utility or tool to use? Hard Reset is really not an option here since it's my primary device for daily use.
Thanks

How about a soft reset? Hold the lock button and volume down button at the same time for 5-10 seconds.

    I cannot install a previously purchased app without paying for it again.  I am using the same apple ID. I cannot figure out why the system is requesting me to pay for this app a second time.

  • When ipad connected to windows computer for sync I cannot install or remove an app. Screen does not react. Also lost my app store app from the ipad screen

    when ipad connected to windows computer for sync I cannot install or remove an app. Screen does not react. Also lost my app store app from the ipad screen. IPad is ipad 2 and op system is 8.1.1. Just tried full restore and still the situation is the same.

    For the missing App Store issue, if you swiped fro screen to screen to look in other folders and didn't find it, and did a spotlight search to see which folder it is in and had no success with that, Check Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure that you didn't disable it.
    You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
    For the syncing issue, which screen does not react, the computer and iTunes or the iPad?

  • Cannot install Creative Cloud desktop app. It just freezes at a certain point.

    I have a brand new machine running Windows 8.1. I don't know much about specs, so if you need more information on my setup, please tell me where to find it.
    I cannot install the Creative Cloud desktop app. It just freezes at a certain point. I had this problem many months ago. I had a chat with someone from Adobe, and they had no clue what it was. I then called in and the phone was basically passed around from person to person trying to figure out what the issue was. They took over my screen, they tried all of the stuff that I read in the forums. Eventually I asked for the highest up person in the office and that person found a workaround that has been working for all these months.
    However, now that I tried to update the Creative Cloud desktop app, the update froze around 40-50% each time, so I uninstalled the Creative Cloud desktop app, then tried to reinstall it. Now I have the same problem that I had many months ago where when I double click on CreativeCloudSet-Up, and it says it's downloading, it freezes very early on and just sits there. No error message, just sits there forever until I kill the process. I can't even cancel it properly.
    I have very slow internet. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I've been downloading all the CC apps directly from the internet, but since I'm paying nearly $60 a month, I'd really like to have the CC desktop app. I'm sick of downloading each update manually off of websites.
    I have read every thread, empty or packed full of replies, and none of the suggestions seem to help me. Maybe I don't know what I'm doing, but I really don't think that paying $60 a month should require me to fiddle with a bunch of files and cleaners, etc. I can't believe this problem has not been solved yet.
    Could it have something to do with my computer? Or is my internet provider blocking something from Adobe? I have no idea and I'm honestly so frustrated. I come home from work everyday and spend the rest of the night trying to fix this issue, and I'm sick of it. I won't call in again, since it was a disaster last time. I was on the line for over 4 hours, and they still didn't properly solve the problem.
    I am 100% desperate and tired of this.

    Nothing? Is there no solution to my problem? Do I have no other option other than to cancel my subscription? Pirating Adobe's software would cause me a lot less hassle than this, and that's not the way it should be.

  • Cannot install "iTunes Movie Trailers App" on new iPad

    Hello all,
    I just got the new iPad (3rd Gen.).
    I am trying to install the iTunes Movie Trailer App (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/itunes-movie-trailers/id471966214?mt=8)
    For some reason, after clicking the install icon, I get an error Pop-up screen that says "Action could not be completed".
    I have installed plenty of other Apps with no issues at all.
    Is this App only for U.S.  users (I am from Canada)?
    I suspect it is something like this because my son also cannot install this App on his iPod touch.
    Any ideas?
    Christian

    I am actually seing it in Canada.
    Nevertheless, it should be able to say "Not available in your region" before I even get the possibility to download.
    Like for example, if I go on the MTV website, I cannot view their videos, they give a proper message.
    For sure they would be able to do the same in a more user-friendly message.
    Another good example, go see this App for the BBC, first thing they say: Exclusive to the UK.
    http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/bbc-olympics/id538520463?mt=8
    Simple, one line says it all.

  • Cannot install LCCS Navigator AIR app - "Sorry, an error has occurred"

    I am unable to install the LCCS "SDK Navigator Application" from the LCCS Developer portal. When I try to run the AIR installer, I get the following error message:
    Sorry, an error has occurred.
    This application cannot be installed because this installer has been misconfigured. Please contact the application author for assistance.
    /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/Info.plist shows my AIR "CFBundleVersion" is "2.6.0.19140".

    Hi Brian,
    I did try to install LCCS Navigator AIR app on the version of AIR runtime you specified, and did not hit any issues.
    Can you give us more details such as OS version, are you updating or installing the app. Also can you try a clean install too.
    Thanks

  • Cannot install/uninstall/use flash

    recently i uninstalled flash in order to install a new version,
    after this i discovered i could not install flash, and although
    flash had been removed some animations could play,
    furthermore the "about flash" or whatever ensured me that flash was still installed.
    i uninstalled it through the control panel, a fatal mistake.
    since then i have tried many times to use the flash uninstaller.
    i have tried downloading special system tools.
    i have searched and removed every folder and every registry entry
    named "flash", "macromedia", "adobe" etc.
    i have removed every visible trace of any adobe product just to be certain, with "Revo uninstaller".
    i have uninstalled/reinstalled opera.
    and i have then used a registry cleaner repeatedly.
    i have looked through countless discussions to get help.
    i cannot install any version of flash.
    the "about flash" page still tells me i have flash installed.
    is there anything more to do?
    the only thing i can think of is reinstalling windows,
    or buying a new computer.
    or if someone let me know the location of every file
    and registry entry associated with flash so i could remove them.

    I should have mentioned that i have Windows XP,
    using Opera, as mentioned.
    i did not find any flash10x.ocx,
    i did however find a few flash.ocx files
    on various places, which i removed.
    i also found and deleted
    NPSWF32.dll
    NPSWF32_FlashUtil.exe
    and flashplayer.xpt
    mentioned in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash
    there must be some traces left in the registry
    since the installer constantly fails to initialize.
    i have tried disabling the firewall and antivirus
    while running the installer.
    and i have tried all the standard instructions.
    The browser does not claim that flash is installed anymore,
    but the installers still fail to initialize when they start.

  • Quicktime in Win7 (32bit) program files security is corrupted. I cannot install/uninstall: access is denied. How do I clear the security lock?

    How do I clear ownership?

  • I cannot install any extensions to apps in Creative Cloud 2014 (v 1.8.1.451).

    My system: Mac OS 10.7.5 -- Creative Cloud 2014 (v 1.8.1.451)
    I have uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled the latest versions of my software, signed out, signed in, did cartwheels, sacrificed a Twinkie to aliens... Been doing this crap for hours...
    I thought it was Business Catalyst that was the problem, but I have tried a dozen other Add-on extensions with the same error results.
    The Error is "(insert extension name here) could not be installed as it requires a compatible CC app. (error -411).  I have tried extensions for InDesign, Dreamweaver, Photoshop and Illustrator - none will install and have the same error.
    Adobe support was no help whatsoever.
    Has anyone any idea what the problem could be?
    I have attached samples.

    Well, as usual, I ended up fixing it myself by reinstalling everything from scratch:
    Uninstalled every app using Creative Cloud Desktop
    Uninstalled Creative Cloud Desktop
    Deleted every com.adobe file on the system
    Deleted every Adobe folder on the system
    Rebooted
    Installed Creative Cloud Desktop
    Reinstalled every app

  • Cannot install/uninstall iTunes 7.3

    Installation stopped and I got this warning,
    "Could not open key: HKEYLocalMachine\Software\Classes\.cda\OpenWithProgids"
    Same message when I try to uninstall using add/remove programs.
    Anyone know how to fix this? I cannot use iTunes or update my iPod.

    Installation stopped and I got this warning,
    "Could not open key: HKEYLocalMachine\Software\Classes\.cda\OpenWithProgids"
    Even though you're not getting an error message number 1402 or 1406, the best place to start with an install problem citing that particular Registry key is the following document:
    Error 1406 or 1402 appears when you install iTunes or QuickTime for Windows

  • Cannot install/uninstall bonjour

    I have as of recently been having this problem. I cannot uninstall or update bonjour. I noticed this once Apple released Bonjour 1.0.6 and Apple Software Update gave me a notice that there was an update for the program. I tried to install it and I am getting this message in a new window:
    "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 'Bonjour.msi' in the box below."
    This is the default source that is automatically typed in the drop down box:
    C:UsersBrendanAppDataLocalTempIXP968.TMP
    At first I suspected that it was put in wrong and I redirected the path to:
    *C:\ProgramData\Apple\Installer Cache\Bonjour 1.0.105*
    Then it says that that cannot be found. Then, I tried another spot:
    *C:\Users\Brendan\AppData\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update\bonjour.msi*
    Still doesn't work. Then I tried uninstalling Bonjour from the Programs and Features link in the Control Panel and I get the same exact message.
    How can I uninstall the program from my computer? Is there a certain tool that I can download that can help me remove this or does anybody have any instructions that I can follow to manually remove it? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

    Will this cause problems on my computer? I've never used this tool, let alone ever heard of it. I skimmed over the web page from the link that you gave me but it seems like it could cause more problems than what I already have. Is this true?
    Also, will this remove all the registry keys that iTunes/Quicktime/Bonjour created during/after installation? Will it also remove Safari?

  • Cannot Install/Uninstall/Use iTunes

    I have a problem with iTunes, a big problem. I cannot use it. When I try to access it, a message pops up saying 'This action is only valid for products that are currently installed'. However, when I plug my iPod in, iTunes comes up, but sychronisation doesn't work, and I can't do anything with it apart from listen to music.
    I can't uninstall or upgrade iTunes - It says it's trying to access a network resource that is unavailable or something.
    I can't install it to a different location - it wants something to do with an installion package - iTunes.msi?
    I can't even install it to my memory stick - I have the same problem as if I'm trying to install to the C:/ drive.
    Can anybody help?

    This sounds like a problem that needs an installer cleanup:
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instruction on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698
    If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.
