Error 1723 - Cannot Install or Uninstall

I mistakenly installed 64 bit Java 6 Update 20 on my 64 bit computer and then realized that I needed the 32 bit since I use IE 32 bit.
I used the Control panel to unistall it, but it gives me error 1723. i tried to install 64 bit Java 6 Update 21 hoping it would over-write the problem files and then I could uninstall it. Still get an error 1723.
I tried to install J6 update 21 32 bit and it worked! ... but the control panel icon for java is a blank document. If I click that white icon, it gives an error saying Application not found. The Programs control panel now has both J6 u20 64 bit and j6 u21 32 bit but I still get 1723 error when I uninstall the 64 bit program.
I have searched the Internet. Most people say to use the Windows installer clean up but the link to that page goes to something that handles only office clean up. Elsewehere you can find people saying that Apple withdrew the cleanup utility.
Is there a utility that "completely removes all versions of Java" the way there is for MacAfee and Norton products?
Anybody have any ideas? Do I just delete a directory? What about remnants in the registry?

I was able to completely uninstall by running 'advanced system care free' - registry fix and then security analyzer (alternating - 3 x each until there was no mention of java in the lists). i then was able to run program uninstall for java from vista control panel. Finally ran a final set of registry and security analyzer passes (only required 1 pass).

    Perform a "hard reset" on the device by pressing down and holding the home button and the sleep/wake button for up to 30secs. until you see a black screen with the Apple logo, then release.
    Then test to see if it solved the problem. Then try again.

  • Error.  Cannot install public key for specified user

    I'm getting "Error. Cannot install public key for specified user" when trying to add a public ssh key for a service processor user on a V20z. I've tried it for different users and still get the error. The same operation works fine on a V40z. Any help would be appreciated.

    That would be great if the resolution was that simple.  I am using a public key I generated using the putty key generator.  Below is the key I would use if I got that far.  However I get an error on the "ssh authentication publickey" attribute so I never get the chance to enter a public key.  What code version and hardware version are you running that this worked on?

  • IOS8 Multi Folio - Error message "Cannot install item"

    We're a UK publisher using Enterprise Editions to produce multi folios. We publish v27, to target iOS6+7. On updating to iOS8 and opening our app in Newsstand, and trying to download an edition, we get the Error Message "Cannot Install Item". I've read through the various threads and can't see a definitive solution. Interestingly the two Adobe mag apps I have on my Newsstand (CMO & Inspire) show up the same error. Many thanks.

    You need to rebuild your app as v31 or v32 and resubmit.
    For details on iOS 5 access refer to this blog post from last year:

  • HELP cannot install itunes, uninstall itunes or uninstall quicktime

    Hello - Went to upgrade my orig ver of itunes ver 6.0 to the video version to grab some music videos, and that is when all went to ****.
    Got an error message that itunes was unable to install to my PC. PC is p4 running winXP sp2/3.
    Error code: -3
    Went to uninstall itunes, and got another error message that itunes was unable to complete the task with NO error code.
    Also went to uninstall quicktime, and apparently the uninstall is not on my computer. I reinstalled quicktime, which was successful, but after rebooting and then trying to uninstall quicktime again, i got same error message quicktime uninstall cannot be found, quicktime cannot be uninstalled.
    I did manage to get itunes successfully uninstalled.
    After reboot and clearing out temp files and cache then again rebooting, then attempting to reinstall itunes VER 6.0 just the plain version for windows, NOT the video version, i again got error message that itunes was unable to install on my PC.
    PLEASE HELP.
    i cannot seem to load in a successful ver of itunes to listen to music, nor uninstall/install quicktime.
    FYI -
    Quicktime will not work when opened through itunes and through start menu, but will work when opened in the program and actually clicking on the .exe button.
    pls help! i just want regular ver of itunes without video now, just want to listen to music what i bought, thnx

    YES it is a Windows 98 based software, since i was unable to find older ver of Quicktime, i used what i had.
    Incidentally, i figured out that when i went to install the Video ver of itunes, the ver 6.0 did not completely uninstall, some files were somehow corrupted.
    There is a round about fix located on the windows tech support section which deleted previous Windows installer programs that in turn deletes older versions of programs, you pick from a list that the program detects, and it will delete all older versions.
    Here is the link, if you know anyone that needs it..
    it fixed my PC, after using this program i was able to successfully install 1st- the standalone version of quicktime, then itunes without incident.

  • Cannot install nor uninstall Analyzer for Excel add-in

    When I try to run the Analyzer installer executable, which was downloaded directly from our BI Publisher server version 10.1.3.2, the installer only asks if I wish to UNinstall the add-in. Since I have no other choice, I say yes, thinking I can start all over. It goes through it's cute little progress bars and states that it finished uninstalling. No matter how many times I run the installer, it always asks if I want to uninstall the currently installed add-in.
    The add-in does NOT appear in the list of installed add-ins inside Excel.
    That's just for starters. If I open an Excel Analyzer template workbook, the 'Oracle BI Publisher' menu appears. When I try to login, it says that the add-in must be updated, so I confirm. Then it successfully connects to our BI Publisher server, and starts downloading/installing various files. But this process terminates with an error, stating that the update process failed, and I will not be able to refresh the data.
    There is an entry in the Windows Add/Remove Programs utillity that corresponds to the Excel Analyzer Add-in. No matter how many times I click the Remove button, this item will not be removed from the list. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling .NET Framework 2.0 SP1 and repeating this entire process. The result is always the same. I can neither install nor uninstall the Analyzer add-in.
    Is there any way to make the installer re-install the Analyzer without thinking it's already installed? Is there some utility provided by Oracle that will manually remove the mess that is Analyzer for Excel?
    I HATE the Analyzer for Excel, but it's the only interface to our data warehouse that everyone is skilled enough to use.

    After failing to uninstall the program again, I tried using the 'Repair' option of the XMLPReportAddinSetup.msi package. That seemed to finish normally.
    So then I tried to open an Analyzer template file. It opened, but when I tried to use the 'Login' item from the 'Oracle BI Publisher' menu, it said it needed to update the add-in. Instead of updating it, I chose to UNINSTALL the program, because I thought it would now have enough pieces to complete the uninstallation. It still won't uninstall. It is still listed in Add/Remove programs.
    The next time I did the whole process again, and when I got to the point where the add-in says it needs to update from the server, I confirmed. This update again failed with an error.
    I still cannot uninstall the program. I noticed also that the date on the program in the Add/Remove Programs listing is from Sept 30, not today.

  • Cannot install or uninstall iTunes 10.4

    Keep getting error 1336 system error 5 Cannot write to file C:\program files\itunes\mozilla pluging\npitunes.dll Verify you have access to file. At a loss as to the problem, I verified access, tried running as administrator, tried changing install folder and all results in same error

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Error message; cannot install update due to other Firefox versions installed. How do I checkfor other versions ?

    Cannot install Firefox 7.0 update. Getting message that update cannot be completed. Check for other versions already installed. How do I look for other versions ?

    Do a clean (re-)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Pacman. Cannot install previously uninstalled package from cache

    Hi all.
    I'm trying to install packages from shared cache to keep few machines in sync. I thought using "pacman -U --needed /path/to/cache/*" would solve it. However when I started testing I've noticed that when one package is removed I cannot install it  back that way. Pacman will just skip that package for some reason. If i use the same command but specify the the package /path/to/package/package_name or even first letter followed by * it will also install it. Why is that?

    Is it possible that the '*' is expanded in some unexpected way?
    I'm not using nfs, I tested it by uninstalling aurphan and running
    $ sudo pacman -U --needed /var/cache/pacman/pkg/*
