" Cannot validate contents " error message

I have tried several times to download software updates available ( Java, Security 2011-11 and i tunes) and am getting the error message "Installer cannot validate contents, contact manufacturer". I've tried downloading directly from apple website and got the same message. I have verified permissions and repaired permissions, tried again and got the same message. I also got an error message when I tried to update Adobe this morning. Any help would be appreciated.

What that means is the disc image cannot be verified usually because it is damaged in some way or is a defective download. You might try re-downloading again (I know you already have) until you are able to get a "good" result. Of course if the file is damaged on the server then you will never get a good result.
If your network connection is slow (telephone modem) then these downloads are far to large for regular success. Line glitches, even one, can render the resulting file worthless. Other network related problems can corrupt file downloads.
Last consider repairing the hard drive (not permissions which have nothing to do with the problem.) If your hard drive has problems then it may not be saving the downloads properly.
Repair the Hard Drive
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

  • How can I open my file after 'cannot find -filename-' error message?

    OK, the bottom line is, InDesign crashes and I cannot recover my file. I get a 'Cannot find file' error message when I try to open the file.
    I am using CS6 on a MacBookAir, OS X Yosemite.
    I have tried finding the 'InDesignFileRecovery' folder, I cannot find it anywhere, it's not in my Library or Caches folder.
    However, I do work in dropbox, so I just headed over to dropbox to recover from their 'previous versions'. It starts to get weird. There are lots of previous versions (I save very regularly) but when I download a previous version (that I know was fine) it downloads with a indd.txt extension. So I remove the txt extension and keep the indd and everything looks fine, but then that recovered file gives the same message. I tried renaming the recovered file and opening that, same 'cannot find file' error message.
    I can open InDesign and open the file from the day before, but none of the dropbox earlier versions of that day's work. I am SO sick of this happening. It happened to me last week to, so far I have lost 20 hours work :-(
    I have tried quitting InDesign and restarting the Mac, doesn't help. The only thing I can think of is to 'save as' every couple of hours, at least then hopefully I only lose 2 hours work.

    Thanks, when you say 'hidden by default' then how does one find it? I have already tried the path you mention and there is no sign of a cache folder with Adobe files. Spotlight doesn't reveal anything either.

  • How do I resolve the "Mozilla cannot find runtime" error message when I try to start Firefox?

    Mozilla Firefox updated to version 36.0. When I click on the Firefox icon to open it I receive the message: "Mozilla cannot find runtime" I receive the same message if I try to open Firefox by selecting "firefox.exe" from within the Program Files. I subsequently uninstall Mozilla Firefox and reinstall it. It will open and run normally right after the re-installation. Then if I close the program and try to re-open it again, I get the same "Mozilla cannot find runtime" error message.
    The only way I can get Firefox to open is if I uninstall and re-install it every time I want to open it after the initial re-installation.

    ''sage68 [[#answer-700841|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    Hi Adriel,
    The "Mozilla cannot find runtime" problem has returned. It occurs in two situations:
    1. When Firefox tries to download updates using "updater.exe" (version 36.0.0.5531), which causes my "Norton Internet Security" program to notify me with the message: "Auto-Protect has removed security risk Suspicious.Cloud.9.B" This message is shown every time "updater.exe" activates.
    </blockquote>
    I also have experienced this during several upgrades, not just the latest. (I am using Windows XP and Norton Security Suite.) Norton identifies c:\program files\mozilla firefox\updated\xul.dll with the Suspicious.Cloud.9.B virus and removes the file. I can set the Norton installation to accept xul.dll but it would make more sense for a Mozilla expert to contact Norton and work out a permanent solution, for all who are facing this problem.

  • 'cannot get mail' error message

    Getting 'cannot get mail' error message for my hotmail on iphone and ipad, tried resetting account and passwords, not helping...any ideas??

    My email started working -- on its own -- at 7 PM. That means that from 4 AM until 7 PM, I received no email.
    However, I knew I missed some messages.  It's now the NEXT MORNING and those missed messages still have NOT arrived.  I has hoping they were in a queue or something and would still be arriving.
    This is HORRIBLE.  Gosh only knows what I missed beyond the few that a couple friends told me about.
    If this happens one more time, I'll leave icloud.com's email.  This is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.  In all the years of having had MobileMe prior to iCloud email, nothing like this ever happened.

  • What does the corrupted content error message mean when FireFox 7.0.1 tries to open a web page?

    Corrupted Content Error. The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem. Ever since FireFox updated to 7.0.1 this error occurs.
    Signing out of Hotmail generates that message I mentioned: Corrupted Content Error. The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem. Ever since FireFox updated to 7.0.1 this error occurs. How do I stop it? Now it appears to be doing it across multiple websites. The TRY AGAIN button always comes up when initially trying to load a webpage - very frustrating.

    You can get a "Corrupted Content Error" error if there are multiple location redirects send via the HTTP response headers or other entries may be wrong.

  • Have leopard but still get Cannot Submit Batche error message in Compressor

    i get the "cannot submit batch unable to connect to background process" error message. Some posts attribute this to a Tiger anomaly but it has happened to me after i went to 10.4.10--though i had not used my DVDSP2 in several months.
    Any suggestions appreciated

    Sounds like your compressor preferences are trashed. You can try getting your old compressor preferences before you installed leopard.
    leopard keeps some of the old file from you previous system.
    I forget what the name of the folder is but its something like previous versions in your main directory. From the previous system folder navigate to your old
    compressor settings. users>yourname>library>application support>compressor.
    copy those files from you previous system folder and move them the new compressor files location that can be found under you username NOT IN THE PREVIOUS SYSTEM FOLDER.
    You can also try moving your present compressor settings to the trash (DO NOT EMPTY)and rebooting then launching compressor. You might get prompted to reinstall compressor from disk or website file.
    There also used to be a way to download just compressor from apples website.
    If all that doesn't work. DO A CLEAN INSTALL final cut likes that better then upgrades.
    Back up and do a clean build.
    Back up old content to other HD then OS is on.
    Reformat OS HD
    Reinstall OS
    Reinstall FCP (long time).
    FCP will be happier that way.
    HOPE IT HELPS.

  • Cannot play movie error message

    I am trying to stream off the bbc iplayer via wi-fi onto my ipod touch.
    It keeps coming up with the error message 'Cannot Play Movie'.
    Any ideas please??

    That means that the dock is not HDCP complient..
    HDCP stands for High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection and was developed by Intel Corporation. It's nothing more than a security feature requiring compatibility between the sender and receiver, like HD cable set-top box and the TV. By compatibility, I mean HDCP technology built into both devices.
    Think of HDCP as a security license key like you would input when installing a computer program. Only this security key is invisible to you and me but not your TV.

    Hi Ravi,
    First thing, My name is Tilak not Thilak
    Here is the answer for your query:
    Using DMS_KPRO_READ you can check the files in Content server. where the files are phsyically stored in SAPDB
    go to SE38 in Program Text box  put  DMS_KPRO_READ
    Select Subobject as Source Code
    Click on Display button
    then Execute it or Press F8 (short cut for direct processing)
    Enter Document Type
             Document  Number
             Document  Part
             Document Version
    and execute it
    It shows you all the detail what you want
    PHIO-ID is the ID of your Document Type which is stored in Content Server with your Repository Name

  • Compressor 2.3.1 Cannot submit batch error message What is causing this?

    The 1009 error indicates that one of the objects being targeted by your code is out of scope.  This could mean that the object....
    - is declared but not instantiated
    - doesn't have an instance name (or the instance name is mispelled)
    - does not exist in the frame where that code is trying to talk to it
    - is animated into place but is not assigned instance names in every keyframe for it
    - is one of two or more consecutive keyframes of the same objects with no name assigned in the preceding frame(s).
    If you go into your Publish Settings Flash section and select the option to Permit debugging, your error message should have a line number following the frame number which will help you isolate which object is involved.

  • Deletion Indicator cannot be unset" error message in PO

    Hi Experts!
    I have a PO in which I deleted a line item, which has been invoice verified, delivered, etc.  Now when I choose to unblock/undelete the line item, it give me error message:  "Deletion Indicator cannot be unset".  Is this a major problem or can it be fixed.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  Urgent!  Thank you for your time!
    Best Regards,

    Hi,
    I would say that system should prevent you to delete a line item po with a GR and or invoice entered. For me it should be a bug.
    Now you have done the line item deletion, inconsistency may occur...
    Did you try first to uncheck the final invoice indicator in the PO ?
    Did you check OSS note 1023130 ?
