Desktop 4.7 (or any other version) will not install

I'm a newbie, but not illiterate. Love my new Storm, but the Desktop software just WON'T install, either off the CD or from the download (same for versions 4.5 and 4.6, which i tried).  Running Vista Ultimate.
On execting 470_b050_english_nomediamanager, the deocmpression is fine.  It goes thru the script fine until it tries to actually install the program.. it freezes, just sits there (until it times out).  I've scoured the Internet trying to find what might casue this problem.  But most people are reporting "sync" problems AFTER they've installed. 
I don't think it's another process running.  I don't think it's contention with a Vista Service (tho i can't prove that).  Other InstallShield apps install fine. And i don't think it's Norton Internet Security. But it's something.  Will somebody more knowledgable please ask me questions?  This is driving me nuts! 
Thanks! And Happy New Year to all who answer this post!

Hi,
Are you saving the file to a separate directory like c:\temp then executing the file?
or are you executing the file from the download screen. I recommend the second.
Thanks,

  • Help!  Flash Player 14.0.0.125 (latest version) will not install?

    Help!  Have been trying to install Flash Player 14.0.0.125 (latest version) on my MacBook Pro.  It will not install.  I've tried all the suggested trouble shooting, uninstalling and redownloading, etc., etc. and still get the same result, or non-result.  Appreciate any and all suggestions!

    Carl,
    Do you get any error messages suggesting why Flash Player can't be installed? Did you already have it installed and, if so, did you try to update through the Preference Pane? Have you tried restarting and making sure that all browsers are closed before installing?
    Call back,

  • Filemaker Pro 6 trial version will not install on iBook

    iBook G4 running OS 10.4 will not install the Filemaker Pro 6 trial version. I am attempting to use it to update files from version 3. I downloaded the trial version from their site, and attempted to open it (it is a .sit file) and it says it cannot open the file.
    The filemaker site is useless, and I find it impossible to find out how to activate my sign in ID to ask a simple question and they do not have any answers that I can find.
    The version 3 was on my G3 PPC OS 9 laptop. Those files I will copy to the iBook G4 and supposedly I can update them using version 6.
    Any ideas on opening this .sit file?
    J

    OS9 can handle archive file format .sit
    OSX uses only .dmg file format
    You have to search the web for a (trial or free) version of Stuffit Expander 2010 for Mac if you want to open  the file using OSX 10.4

  • I cannot use itunes with windows 7. I think the problem has something to do with the fact that a 32 bit xp version was loaded on my machine. I can't uninstall it and the 64 bit version will not install.

    I cannot use tunes with windows 7. A 32 bit xp version was loaded from my prior computer. It will not uninstall. The 64 bit version will noit install.

  • Download version will not install on MacBook

    I purchased Version 2.0 as an upgrade download, but it will not install on a MacBook. Is there some trick. I have the multimedia version or so I thought.
    Thank you,
    Mike

    You can't install the App Store version of Mavericks because your model needs a special version. If you ever need to reinstall it, boot into Recovery.

    Here are a couple of articles from that Apple Support site that might help.

  • Visio 2013 32-bit trial version will not install even with other 32-bit MS products only.

    Trying to load MS Visio 2013 Trial to determine if it works so I can purchase full version.
    Environment: MacBook Pro, w/ VMWare Fusion 4, Windows 7, running only MS Project 32-bit on the VMWare side. MS Office is not installed only MS Project.
    Downloaded Visio 2013 Trial img file and attempted to install. Received 64-bit conflict with 32-bit software error message. Deleted Visio 2013 64-bit version and redownloaded Visio 2013 Trial img this time in 32-bit. Tried to install but the same 64-bit
    conflict message is appearing.  As the only software I have installed is MS Project 32-bit it does not appear that there should be a conflict.  I have scanned TechNet and Googled to try and understand how to determine and resolve the conflict but
    there are no threads to address this specific problem. 
    P.S. I cannot uninstall and reinstall MS Project as I spent hours on the phone with Microsoft and VMWare Support to get it installed the first time so I don't want to mess with an existing environment that is finally working.
    Microsoft online chat recommended calling MS Support and they have now sent me to you. Can you please help?

    Dear Smith_123:
    Thank you for your reply. However, Office had never been previously on the OS as it was never purchased.  I do have Office for Mac 2011 but that is 32 bit and is not on the VMWare / Windows side of the machine.  But even if I had, I would not know
    how to clean up the residual file or registry keys without assistance.
    After 1 hours and 20 min on the phone last evening and being handed from person to person through literally 9 different people, I finally reached someone that seemed knowledgeable in MS Support.  But all they would give me was a circular answer: 
    We can't help you because it is a Trial Version for which there is no support offered. When I explained I wanted to be sure Visio worked on my machine prior to spending between $300 and $600 on a copy, Support could only say that I would have to purchase it
    first before they would give me any help to see if it works. When I offered to purchase it right then since I had finally gotten to someone who appeared as though they could help, he told me that he was Support and not Sales so I would have to go elsewhere
    to purchase the product.  Very frustrating.

    Im using a fairly new Samsung laptop with windows 7 (installed from manufacturer) and the newest version of itunes stops part way through install and will not finish. I can not update my iphone without the latest version... whats going on with this?

    Hello there, pbrady2691.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some recommendations for troubleshooting:

    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.

  • Lastest version will not install. Library will not read.

    Error msge: "The file itunes library.itl will not read because it was created with a newer version.  iTunes will not even open.  I've got nothing.  I want to add podcasts to my nano, but cannot without accessing iTunes. The whole mess started when I tried downloading the latest version and got nothing.

  • My Firefox Update fails to install everytime it tries. Why is this happening? I don'have any other version of Firefox installed.

    It asks me to check if I have another version installed. I had the Beta thing but not anymore. I don't have another one. But the update simply fails to install.

    Monday I ended up on the phone with Apple Support just to be sure I was doing the right thing and to check my back up info so I could be sure I didn't loose important data. They were very nice and helped me finish the process. When I told the tech that I couldn't download the new update and install from my iphone that is when I went to the computer and that's when I got this recovery mode thing on my phone. He told me there must have been a problem and that is why he thinks I couldn't down load it from the phone. I had to go to ITunes on my computer. Once we did the recovery we were able to check that I had a back up from the day before, so I didn't loose anything. He stayed with me til the process finished. I also found out I can prevent the auto sync for the future by setting the directions on that.
    I am good now and my phone is operating fine, with the new update. Thank you all who commented back to me.

  • FireFox 4 and earlier versions will not install on my Windows Vista, 64 bit computer. The file downloads and the file extracts but I never make it to the installation wizard.

    I have tried to download FireFox 4 and earlier versions from several different website, thinking the files might have gotten corrupted, and each time I download the file the exact same thing happens, the file downloads and the file gets extracted but when the extraction completes the small window dissappears and nothing else happens.
    My machine is a Windows Vista 64 bit system and I've tried downloading the file with my 32 and 64 bit Internet Explorer but nothing seems to work. Can someone help me please because I would love to be able to completely delete I.E.

    Hi, thanks for your Flash file info. Well you must have been doing it right, since all of your Flash files for IE and FF are correct.
    The SWF plugin for FF and the SWO for IE are also correct.
    You shouldn't be having any problems with Flash Player.
    What you can try is to turn off the hardware acceleration feature. Go to any video, like youtube and right click on the video and click on Settings. Display Settings is where you will UN check hardware acceleration.
    See if that helps. Let me know.
    Thanks,

  • Cs2 Illustrator education version will not install on mac

    I installed the education version of CS2. Illustrator and InDesign won't install. Photoshop, GoLive, Bridge, Acrobat and Version Cue install fine.  I completely uninstalled CS2 and re-installed it.  In the dialogue box that asks if you want to install the entire suite or selected components, I can't select entire suite and if I click Selected Components, Illustrator and InDesign are greyed out and not selectable.
    Anyone have a good idea why this is happening?
    Thanks

    It will. You can't install CS2 after installing CS3 or 4. Doesn't work. Uninstall the CS4 and dump all files, esp shared libs. You may have to use the CS4 Clean Script to remove all the associated parts.

  • LR4 release version will not install - Windows 7 x64

    Just bought and downloaded the RTM version. Uninstalled LR4beta then rebooted and tried install. Fails while extracting file Adlobe_Lightroom_x64.msi.
    Downloaded LR4 again from another Adobe site - same result.
    Tons of room on all disks. (All system and cache disks are SSDs)
    Can see temporary file extraction area in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp - files begin to appear in a numbered folder then are erased when extraction fails
    Any workarounds to get this going?
    cheers
    Rod

    Developed a work around. Went to the appdata temp folder and watched for the new install folder to appear when running the LR4 installer. Killed setup64.exe in process explorer as soon as the msi installer file was extracted. this installer then worked fine.
    But somethign wrong with the RTM setup files for sure...

  • New version will not install

    I was asked to install a new version of adobe reader, but when I started the download it froze . Now I cannot open any .exe file.

    Sounds like your system has problems. It could be anything from directory damage to a malware issue. Seek out a specialist with PC problems.
