Download Skype to Z10 - Error message appears " Error Installing Applicatio​n "

I deleted the Skype app by accident - went to BB World and downloaded the Skype app - it downloaded and commenced installing 75% through the message appeared Error Installing Application
The Skype app appear but never initiallised - I deleted it - shut down the Z10 and restarted and tried again only to see the same result
I would appreciate learning what i need to do to have Skype installed again please
Thanks
David 

So now I am a little more unsure...when, exactly, does the error present? During the installation process via BBWorld? Of after when attempting to launch the app?
I was able, on my Z30 (10.2.1.3175), to successfully install Skype, but I did not actually launch it. On my Z10 (10.2.1.2234), I also can successfully install Skype from BBWorld, and on this device I did actually launch it successfully, but only to the point where it wants me to provide login credentials.
And, just to be clear on the process:
I select Skype from BBWorld
Click the button to download and install
Watch the download progress bar get to 100%
Watch the install progress bar get about halfway, at which point it asks to Accept something and then completes
Finally the screen changes back to the catalog screen, but the button has changed to "Open".
At that point, the app is fully installed to the device.
So, if this error presents to you during install, I have now successfully gotten past that, and something about your device is preventing it. What OS level is your Z10 on? If it's older than mine, then I recommend updating your OS -- app compatibility has improved as the OS has evolved.
As for company versus personal...just to be clear, you don't have "work" and "personal" "spaces" on your device. You have no selections for that anywhere, right? That's how you tell if your device is associated to a BES environment, and if it is that BES IT Policy could be what is blocking this. Further, you can check on an IT Policy via this procedure:
Article ID: KB30076 How to check for an IT Policy on a BlackBerry smartphone
If there is an IT Policy and you are part of a BES environment, then you should talk to your BES admins about if perhaps they are blocking this.
As for alternatives, if it's BB to BB, then BBM voice/video would be the way to go. If it's to non-BB, then once (if) they roll out BBM voice/video for non-BB platforms, that could be a way to go. I haven't yet tried out Google Hangouts on BB10 yet, but I actually prefer that video chat service over Skype (but, I admit that I've not used Skype in a few years now, so perhaps it's improved over what problems it used to have).
Good luck and let us know!

  • I created an Apple ID on my iPhone, but I can not download any application because a message appears saying that iTunes can not login.

    I created an Apple ID on my iPhone, but I can not download any application because a message appears saying that iTunes store can not login. The strange thing is that my Apple ID works perfectly when I try to access my icloud browser on my iMac and even I join this forum. I login with my ID system icloud without problems! Why can not I download applications? What relationship has between iTunes store and iCloud?

    You cannot download the same Apps that you have on your iPhone. They are two seperate stores.
    The store you have on your iPhone is the same for any iDevice (iPad, iPhone and iPod)
    The store on your MacBook is only for Macs.

  • I cannot download Mavericks. Every time the file download stops a message appears that says the file is damaged and cannot be used to install Mavericks. I delete the file, download again and the same message appears. What can I do?

    I only have one video project that I ever published to iDisk. It didn't have any music or photo files attatched to it, just a few clips stitched together. I can play these clips right now in the Event Library (so I know the source files are on my computer), but strangely, under the Project Library, the project is not there. I'm almost certain that I didn't store the project on iDisk; I just completed the video and published it to iDisk (as a .mov file I think) for family to see. I've tried to figure out how to get iDisk to stop looking for this project to no avail.
    I don't know if others have experienced this, but if I click on any project and on the menu bar select Share --> Remove From --> Media Browser... it lists iPod, iPhone, iPad, tv, Computer and MobileMe. Why would MobileMe be an option here? This is the case for any video project I select. Didn't iLife '11 and/or OSX 10.8 remove all mention of MobileMe? I wonder if this is part of the problem too.
    Edit: I just removed every project I have from the Media Browser. Still no luck.

  • Downloaded Skype For Z10 but still no Outlook sync ??????????

    Just downloaded  Skype for Q 10 that works with Z10 However they still did not solve the problem with  Direct Outlook sync and not through third party software or link 
    Simple process download through Crackberry link and add on your Z10 through Developer mode works like a charm ....

    Hey zeyadq8,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Currently there is only one way synchronization from Microsoft Outlook to the BlackBerry 10 smartphone.  For more information check out this blog post: http://helpblog.blackberry.com/2013/03/blackberry-​link-import-outlook/
    Let me know if you have any more questions or if you receive any specific errors.

  • Every time i try to download itunes 10.5 this message appears: There is a problem with you windows installer package, a program required for install could not be run?

    please can someone help?

  • Error installing Apps on my Z10 from BB World

    I've just recently started to get an error message on my Z10 when downloading apps that say “Error Installing Application” with a red bar. I thought it may have been the app I was originally trying to download, but I tried others and I continued to get that same message. Generally I have not had a problem in updating apps. I have tried rebooting many time but to no avail. I'm running OS 10.2.1.2102.

    OK...then next...with a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (step 1 should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
    1) Register HRT
    KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
    Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive
    2) Reboot
    Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
    BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. IF this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
    See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you may need to contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
    Good luck!

  • Office Professional Plus 2013 - Click to run fails to start - errror message "Couldn't install"

    I have just purchased an new PC with 8.1, and have also purchased Office 2013 via the HUP. Now I am trying to start the download.  After clicking on the link in the email, a "Click to Run" file is downloaded. When I open the file, it fails
    to start the Office 2013 download. I get the message "Couldn't install"
    However after trying several options including compatability and administrator options,  I still get the message "Couldn't install".
    I have checked for compatibility and all checks OK
    I am looking forward to an ideas :)
    Thanks in advance :)
    Richard

    Hi Richard,
    Thanks for your question. I believe that "Couldn't install" is not the complete error message, it would be great that you can copy and paste the entire message here. It's necessary for the investigation.
    Please first check if you have any pre-installed version  (Preview edition) of Office on your PC. If yes, please try to use
    Microsoft Fix It tool to remove any traces of Office from your computer, then try the installation again:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2739501
    You might also need to follow the manually steps mentioned on the same page to delete the related reg keys/folder structures, and then try again.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder.

    I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder."
    I have tried a few things but iTunes closes right after i click okay. Anyone know anything?

    Look in your Home > Music folder.  There should be an iTunes folder there and it should have a number of files and folders including one called library.itl  You want to guide iTunes to that file.  If you don't see that file or folder then in your next post you will have to be very specific as to what you do see or how you have your iTunes set up because that's where it should be according to default settings.

  • HT1725 In a download of an entire album, one song download was interrupted.  I have followed the instructions for resuming the download, but each time I attempt to resume the download the same error message appears saying the download was interrupted. Ans

    While downloading an album in from the Store, one song was interrupted.  I have followed the instructions from apple about resuming the download, but every time I do so the same error message appears saying the download was interrupted.  I am having no connection problems, have rebooted my computer, downloaded the lates version of iTunes, etc., yet nothing changes.  Has anyone else experienced this, and are there any workarounds.  Sadly the problem hit on one of the best songs of the album.

    I had the same problem so (assuming under the Purchased items in the Store you have a song stuck at 'Downloading'):
    I went to Music, then Artists.
    From there I chose the album.
    The song that failed to download had the cloud symbol next to it.
    I clicked the cloud symbol and the song completed the download for me.
    (Please note this was in iTunes for Windows - I expect it to be similar in iTunes for Apple)

    It sounds to me like your Internal Hard Drive is failing.
    I recommend you buy a new one, that is a good candidate for replacing the old one, but install it in an External enclosure and Install a fresh Mac OS X on it from the DVD. You can boot your Mac from any attached drive.
    The new System can be used to get some work done, check your emails, and takes the pressure off resolving this immediately. You can also attempt to salvage files off the old drive if needed.
    Once things seem to be working, then move the new drive inside the computer. Failures at this point may be due to bad cable, which has been a problem in some of these MacBooks.
    Use security erase, write Zeroes, one pass, to re-write every block on the old drive. Any block discovered to be bad will be replaced with spares the drive holds in reserve for this purpose. If more than 10 blocks are pared on one pass, "Initialization Failed!" will be the result. Although you can try the erase again, there is some question whether you want to trust this drive with your precious data.

    I purchased and downloaded Lightroom 5.5. After installing it, I was prompted for the serial number. When I entered it an error message appeared saying it was an upgrade serial number and I need to enter my original purchase number. This was my original purchase, not an upgrade. Now what do I do?

    It sounds like you bought an upgrade from Adobe. How much did you pay? The upgrade is about $80, and the non-upgrade is about $150. If you bought an upgrade version and had no previous version, you would see what you're seeing.
    If that is the case and I were you, I'd call Adobe, and arrange for a refund and to order the correct version.
