Cant get widgets to install

After downloading a shed load of widgets (radio players, chord finders etc) I cant get them to install on the dashboard after unpacking/unzipping them. I have OSX 10.4.7. so it should be fine in terms of OS but I have been told that as a PowerPC chip user, some may not work. However i've downloaded some from mid 2005 but still to no avail.
Any suggestions?

Hi Ben, usually they are .zip files. Just doubleclick to open and then drag the Widget to ~(yourHome)/Library/Widgets. If you have no "Widgets" folder in that location, create one.

  • Help.i cant get itunes to install

    i have been trying to install itunes and i keep getting error code 2738 come up when it is installing.i have tried doing what others have said but it still will not install.what can i do please.i have a new iphone and cant get it to work without itunes installed.thanks x

    When you say that you have tried what others have said, it doesn't help the person trying to help you. You need to say what you have tried, this saves time and avoids you being told to do something you have already tried.
    I haven't encountered this error number before, but according to the Microsoft list of installer errors is means:
    "Could not access VBScript run time for custom action"
    It's just a guess, but the following might help.
    Type cmd into your search box, cmd should come up under programs. Run it with "Run as Administrator".
    Paste in the following line:
    regsvr32 scrrun.dll
    If that doesn't work, try the following:
    regsvr32 vbscript.dll

  • Cant get past the install options page

    When I initially access the setup screen I get "Adobe acrobat 3d cannot be installed without adobe framemaker, robohelp or captivate because at least one of these products is required for activation of adobe tech comm. Suite and adobe acrobat 3d cant be activated without activating the suite". I then get through the Welcome to installer page and Liscense agrrement. In the Installation Options page I have an X for top level adobe TCS and 4 Xs for the next four products. Only acrobat 3d does not have an X. When I try to click Next I get "Please select at least one product to continue. Does not let me select one." but it does not let me pick one. I already had framemaker 8 and a trial of robohelp installed, should I uninstall them? The TCS was an upgrade product so that is why I kept the older programs. Any help you may provide is greatly appreciated.

    Billy,
    You must completely uninstall the other products completely before
    installing the TC Stuite.

  • I cant get itunes to install. HELP!

    WHenever I try to install itunes 7 it gets stuck on the screen saying "valitading install" THen after about 5-10 min an error message 1905 pops up and says "unable to unregister" or something along those lines.
    Do I needs to get rid of itunes 4(which is currently on my comp) to upgrade to 7? How would I do this and would I lose all my music?
    ----OR-----
    The reason I am even bothering to upgrade is because I bought the new nano as a gift and would like to put music on it before I give it. My itunes4 doesnt seem to recognize it and it never shows up when I plug it in? If you could tell me how to get around this problem I wouldnt need to upgrade.
    If anyone can help me I would really appreciate your time.

    You have posted in the iTunes for Mac forums. You will likely get a faster response by posting in the iTunes for Windows forums.

  • Cant get itunes to install properly on windows 7

    I upgraded to Windows 7 from vista. I did a new fresh install starting with a new hard drive. The install went fine until I went to install Itunes. Downloaded the latest Itunes and started the install. A good way into the install during the part of the installation when the status screen states "Publising Product Information", I'm getting the following error message:
    "An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",publicKeyToken='1fc8b 3b9a1e18e3b",processorarchitecture="x86". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x800736FD."
    Following this message, the installer reverses the installation process and after a 10-15 minute wait, a screen comes up that says the Itunes installation was complete. Obviously it wasn't but that is what the message says. When you close out of that message, Itunes tries to start and this message pops up:
    "Apple Application Support was not found.
    Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall itunes, then install iTunes again.
    Error 2"
    I have uninstalled and retried the installation process multiple times with the exact same result. I have downloaded the installation file from the iTunes website 3 different times and retried each one to make sure that I didn't have a problem with the installation file.

    *Replying to greentara*
    'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.50727.4053",type="win32",

    Please refer to Help and Support for more information.
    HRESULT:0x800736FD."
    There seem to be a few different versions of that one going round. So, I'm starting with some questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits and treatments.
    (1) Which variety of Windows 7 do you have installed? (For example, Home Premium or Ultimate?) Is it 32-bit or 64-bit?
    (2) Head into your Windows Update. Are you currently able to download and install updates? If not, check your Update History. Doubleclick on the failed updates. What error codes are being cited for the failed updates?
    (3) Do you currently have the Microsoft C++ runtime installed on the PC? If so, which version? 2005 or 2008?

  • New to bootcamp and cant get it to install windows 7

    Hello bootcamp gurus,
    I have a iMac 3.06 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo running Mac OS 10.6.6 and it came installed with Boot Camp Assistant 3.0.1 (313). I purchased Windows 7 Profession download. I have downloaded it and burned the 3 files on to a DVD. The files are entitled "Win7-P-Retail-en-us-X64.exe", "setup1.box" and "setup2.box". I followed the instructions in Boot Camp Assistant and noticed that Windows 7 doesn't appear included. I tried to find an update to Boot Camp but everything is an .exe file. I'm very confused.
    In any case when it goes to the windows side it says it can't find a bootable disc.
    Can any of you give me some pointers to get this installed?
    Thanks you so much for your time.

    You can load the ISO into VirtualBox and burn from there.
    If you use Disk Utitity to burn an ISO you need to set it to 2x and use slow reduced burn speed or it won't work properly.
    You purchase was thru school I assume, and those are intended as upgrade I thought but Windows 7 Pro (and either 32-bit or 64-bit).
    There should have been a $15 extra offer to have it on physical media DVD also.

    I have Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) installed
    Okay. There's a security update available for that which has helped a couple of people with a different (installation) iTunes problem, so I think it might be worth trying downloading and installing that:

    If your library was working on your computer and then popped up empty all of a sudden then this might be what you need...
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
