Install error: "This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured.

I need help with an error I am receiving. I'm on a Mac with OS X Mavericks. I just attempted to install the Photoshop Elements trial and, in attempting to open the "Install Adobe Download Assistant", I received this error:
"Sorry, an error has occurred.
This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-
configured. Please contact the application author for assistance."
I did attempt to download a new copy of the installer, with the same result.

you can download directly:
if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
if you have a problem downloading, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com

Any idea what the problem might be? I have tried several browsers. The Download works fine but when I launch it I get the error:

Thanks.

do you have any other acrobat version installed?
if not, run the clean and retry installing, Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs

Trying to download adobe acrobat, it says "this installer has been mis-configured"

Trying to download a trail for adobe acrobat on my mac and it keeps saying theres an error and "This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance." I want to try it ASAP so quick assistance needed, thanks Appreciate it

Phillip please remove your previous installation of the Adobe Download Assistant. Once removed you should be able to download and install the Adobe Download Assistant.
You may have some difficulty locating a page which offers it though as most of our trials are now offered through the Adobe Application Manager. You can use the same link for Photoshop Elements which is offered in the discussion referenced by Rave in message #5 to obtain a copy of the Adobe Download Assistant from there.
Alternately you can try the direct download option as offered by Rave and bypass the use of the Adobe Download Assistant.

Story Plus Desktop "installer has been mis-configured" AIR 3.7

Hello all,
I have been trying to install the latest Story Plus Desktop App. I have found the other topics on this, but they concern older versions of AIR and after trying their suggestions still no luck.
I have the most recent AIR version 3.7
I am using Mountain Lion 10.8.4.
When i download this link: https://story.adobe.com/AIR/AdobeStory.air
I get this error: This application cannot be installed because this installer has been mis-configured. Please contact the application author for assistance.
When I try to use the Install Desktop Application button on the Adobe Story Home Page: https://story.adobe.com/en-us/index.html
I get this message: Application already installed. Launch it.
If I hit OK nothing happens. I have tried using Chrome and Safari.
I have tried deleting all older versions of Story and then starting again but no luck, same errors above.
Please help!
Thanks in advance,
J

Can't Install iTunes : Error Message "Installer has insufficient Privileges to modify this File" Running Windows Vista

Hello!
I am currently having issues installing iTunes on BOTH of my computers. One running Vista, the other, Windows 7.
(Not the same issues)
I used to have iTunes on my Vista (32bit), but when asked to update the software (The update prior to the newest one), I was not able to.
I dont exactly remember the error message.
Yesterday, I tried to install it again when I realized there was a new update.
I am receiving an error message while trying to install the software that says :
"The Installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file: c:\program files\ common files \ apple \ apple application support \ webkit. resources \ inspector \ images \ warnings errors.png
I have tried almost everything I knew to do.
Downloaded itunes setup, extracted the files and tried to install them all separately.
Then I had issues UNinstalling Apple Support and Mobile devices!
Tried something with the registry (not too sure what. I read it on this website)
Tried to Force Uninstall EVERY bit of apple on the computer then try again, and to no avail.
I am a bit discouraged, because I have been trying for so long with both computers.
I even called applecare for help with Windows 7 computer. Spoke to one representative who forwarded me to another who could not help.
(Windows 7 itunes WILL install, but when I plug up my phone says I am not running 64bit itunes, which I am, and to reinstall. Then I was missing the Mobile device and would not let me separately install.)
I am a bit frustrated, and I'd appreciate all of the help I can get.
Thank You all in advance.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

How can I separate just a message that has been mis-threaded?

I thread all of my messages as it helps keep them organized. I occasionally run across a message that is mis-threaded. Totally unrelated to the thread it has been included in. How do I separate out just that mis-threaded message and keep everything else threaded properly? TB24.3.0, Win XP

Are the mis-threaded messages from the same sender? Is it possible they have used "Reply" inappropriately?
More generally, if messages appear in inappropriate places, I'd try this:
# Back up your profile (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-tb)
# Select the folder
# Right-click, select <em>Properties</em>
# Select <em>Repair folder</em>

Is this a genuine error message 'ipad has been infected with potential virus'

II was just about to watch a film through my iPad and a new screen opened 'phone updating.com' and the message read 'Virus warning, ipad has been infected with potential virus. Click the ok button to scan your iPhone now.'
I didn't press ok and it wouldn't let me cross out so I checked and updated to the latest version (8.2) and when my ipad restarted, safari opened it on the same error page. I then went to settings and cleared my Safari history which thankfully clearly the page.
My concern now is what if I have something bad (virus?) on my iPad? Or im hoping that because I didn't click okay that all is okay again.
can anyone advise if they have come across anything similar or if I need to do something else?
MAny Thanks

Thanks, that's what I thought. Do you know if there was any other way that I could have cleared the message other than by clearing my safari history, and more importantly, as I didn't click okay, would this have stopped anything else happening to my ipad?
