Captivate 8 won't install, says it's potentially counterfeit even though I just bought it

I went with a subscription, and downloaded the program right after purchasing and receiving confirmation that it's gone through.  I opened the installer for the 64 bit, and when it gets to 27% when it finally installs Captivate 8 it stops and says:
The product you are trying to install is not an Adobe Genuine Software and appears to be counterfeit.
Please report piracy or contact customer support for assistance. 
I bought the program not 1 hour ago, and just downloaded it from the Adobe site.  How is it counterfeit? 
Any thoughts?

I posted on the forums because I wasn't able to get an actual Adobe rep to help out.  But we did finally connect and I guess it just wasn't being run as Administrator on my PC.  So to anyone else experiencing this problem, right click and run as administrator.

  • Update available for firefox 3.6.12 but won't install;says connection timed out

    I've had firefox 3.6.12 for a couple of months. it says an upgrade is available, but won't install. says connection timed out. I tried it from IE 8 as well, same result. Took me a half our just to get to mozilla.com I installed IE 8 2 days ago, and since then, my monitor flashes the page when i'm in gmail. Also flash videos won't play worth a crap. I just installed K-lite Mega 6.6 to try to fix that.

    I wonder if it's not some of the newer technologies like HTML 5 that the other browsers support. I have the same problem, and the sites load fine in Opera. I still have 3.6 (whatever's latest), and haven't upgraded to 4 yet because of all the extensions I use. I'm waiting until it's more stable and my more important extensions are usable. I use Hulu's desktop viewer and Opera to make up for it, currently.
    Adding screenshots of my experience with it. The text will load, but no video or images. That's why I thought it might be some new language / protocol.

  • How can i delete an app on my desktop that says it won't delete because it's still open, even though i have done force quit numerous times.

    How can i delete an app on my desktop that says it won't delete because it's still open, even though i have done force quit numerous times? I even deleted it's files in my Finder and it just won't go away.  Help please!! TIA

    Restart the computer then delete it.
    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application.  In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder.  You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder.  You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder.  Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item.  Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences.  Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.  Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default.  You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Here is a selection:
        1. AppZapper 2.0.1
        2. AppDelete 3.2.6
        3. Automaton 1.50
        4. Hazel
        5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
        6. CleanApp
        7. iTrash 1.8.2
        8. Amnesia
        9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
      10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1

  • Display level suppressed when installing Office 365 ProPlus via SCCM even though XML says Display Level="Full"

    As the title says the display level is suppressed when installing Office 365 ProPlus via SCCM even though XML says Display Level="Full"
    I would like to install Office ProPlus with the display level visible to the user.  Not all users are local admins so I've installed Office within the admin context.  Does this happen because SCCM installs under system context and as such suppresses
    pop ups to the end user?
    Has anyone been able to get this to work or am i doing something wrong?  If someone can offer me some guidance please.  Here is my XML:
    <Configuration>
    <Add OfficeClientEdition="32" >
        <Product ID="O365ProPlusRetail">
          <Language ID="en-us" />
        <ExcludeApp ID="Access" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="InfoPath" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="Groove" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="Project" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="SharePointDesigner" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="Visio" />
        <ExcludeApp ID="OneNote" />
          <ExcludeApp ID="Publisher" />
        </Product>
      </Add>  -->
    <Updates Enabled="True" />
    <Display Level="Full" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />
    <Property Name="FORCEAPPSHUTDOWN" Value="1" />
    <Logging Name="OfficeSetup.txt" Path="%temp%" />
      <!--  <Property Name="AUTOACTIVATE" Value="1" />  -->
    </Configuration>

    When i install Office 365 ProPlus manually (independently of SCCM) I see the prompts (same SCCM Package and configuration.xml file).  This suggests it is suppressed when ran in the system context via SCCM. 
    How does Microsoft expect you to maintain the build versions (running setup.exe /configure XML) if users are unable to view the prompts? This is significant if the user is already in an Office program they'd get prompted with a message to close the app else
    it automatically closes OR fails depending on if you include the ForceAppShutdown switch in the configuration.xml file.
    The users in the environment are not all local admins which is why i cannot run the deployment in the user context.
    I really need some help, anyone?

  • I have an Ipad and an Ipod Touch 5th gen both on the latest firmwares but they won't connect via bluetooth whenever I try even though both shows that the devices are discoverable. I need help!

    I have an Ipad and an Ipod Touch 5th gen both on the latest firmwares but they won't connect via Bluetooth whenever I try even though both shows that the devices are discoverable. I also tried connecting them with my Bluetooth enabled laptop but it also didn't worked. Because of the Bluetooth not working I also can't enable airdrop.

    What model iPad?
    What model computer and OS version>
    AirDrop requires:
    What you need
    To share content with AirDrop, both people need one of these devices using iOS 7 or later, or a Mac with OS X Yosemite:
    iPhone 5 or later
    iPad (4th generation or later)
    iPad mini
    iPod touch (5th generation)
    You also need to turn on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. If you want to share with your contacts, sign in to your iCloud account.
    Learn more about using AirDrop to share with people using a Mac with Yosemite.
    Use AirDrop to wirelessly share content - Apple Support
    System Requirements
    To see if your Mac works with AirDrop, make sure you’re in the Finder by clicking the desktop (the background area of your screen), or by clicking the Finder icon in the Dock. Then, check to see if AirDrop is listed as an option in the Go menu. If you don't see AirDrop listed, your Mac doesn't support this feature.
    In order to transfer files between a Mac and and an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch
    your iOS device needs to include a lightning connector
    your iOS device needs iOS 7 or later installed
    your Mac needs to be a 2012 or later model with OS X Yosemite installed
    Your Mac and iOS device both need bluetooth and Wi-Fi turned on. You do not have to be connected to a specific Wi-Fi network.
    To transfer files between two Mac computers, you need the Mac models listed below with Wi-Fi turned on and OS X Lion or later installed.
    MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)*
    MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)*
    iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
    *The MacBook Pro (17-Inch Late 2008) and the white MacBook (Late 2008) do not support AirDrop.
    For help identifying your Mac, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu. You can refer to the Apple Support website to find out if your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch includes a lightning connector.
    Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support
    Otherwise you need an app to pair via BT one iOS device to another iOS device. There may be apps that allow pairing with a Mac computer. The iOS devioces do not have the BT profiles necessary natively to pair with a computer or another iOS device except for AirDrop

    I have set up Time Capsule to use with Time Machine but when I open Time Machine it 'cannot find' the Time Capsule and I have to 'Select the Disk' each time. In the Next Backup tab it always says "When disk is connected" even though the disk is already connected.

    Your pro doesn't matter.. I presume it is happily working.
    Your imac setup has got messed up because you changed from a local (my book being USB type I presume) to network drive. Did you do a clean install of Lion?
    Did you use the backup from the Pro on the imac? Otherwise I don't see how the Pro shows up in use previous disk. Where is Pondini when you need him??
    You cannot download Time Machine as an App and replace the current version. It is built into the OS.. the only way to do it is a clean install. Unfortunately that might be the only way around the issue.
    There is a number of issues that Pondini has covered in the setup issues of troubleshooting.
    This is the most relevant I think. http://pondini.org/TM/B6.html
    But look at the whole section B setup problems.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    If it was me, I would store all the info you need.. not using TM but using a straight copy of files.
    Then clean install Lion. I doubt any of these issues would exist if you had not installed Lion over existing setup or used a different backup.
    See if you can get Pondini to respond.. !!

    There is a plugin for Firefox - see here

    It should be installed automatically if you install iTunes, but I guess when you installed iTunes you didn't have Firefox.  Just reinstall iTunes and it should work OK  (your iTunes library will not be affected)

    how do i connect to the network off my itunes? its saying theres no interenet connection even though there is

    Yes and I do understand that! Thank you. There is no option to do an auto channel. Its 1-11 or 36, 40, 44 or 48. Then when it asks for a security its 40 bit WPA or 128 bit WPA. Unsure what that means? If I choose either of those Security options I have to have a certain number of characters for my password, and neither of those options fit the password that was given to me.
    Any suggestions?
