EVERY start-up automatic (?) 'installing update' fails because 'The update could not be installed. ...'

EVERY start-up I have to wait while Firefox says 'installing update' and than 'The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer, and then restart Firefox to try again' while there are no other versions running!

It was due to using an old version of Adobe Air. There really should be a tighly coupled error that either updates Adobe Air for me, or links me to the update. I was only able to find the solution using intuition as a techy.
Now I can install the Muse demo.

Newsfeed error - The operation failed because the server could not access the distributed cache.

Recently installed SharePoint 2013 RTM, on the newsfeed page an error is displayed, and no entries display in the following or everyone tabs.
"The operation failed because the server could not access the distributed cache."
Reading through various posts, I've checked:
- Activity feeds and mentions tabs are working as expected.
- User Profile Service is operational and syncing as expected
- Search is operational and indexing as expected
- The farm was installed based on the autospinstaller scripts.
- Don't believe this to be a permissions issue, during testing added accounts to the admin group to verify
Any suggestions are welcomed, thanks.
The full error message and trace logs is as follows.
SharePoint returned the following error: The operation failed because the server could not access the distributed cache. Internal type name: Microsoft.Office.Server.Microfeed.MicrofeedException. Internal error code: 55. Contact your system administrator

HT201210 I can't update my IPAD2 to IOS 6, it fails and I get a message "could not backup the IPAD because the backup could not be saved to this computer--I have tried different computers? Please, anyone have this same issue and figured out a fix? Thank

I can't update my IPAD2 to IOS6. I've tried through ITUNEs. I get a message after IOS6 is downloaded and extracted, to the effect of "could not backup the IPAD2 because the backup could not be saved to this computer." I've tried directly from the IPAD, and by connecting through ITUNES to two separate computgers. Can anyone help? Thank you.

However after part of the Itune update completed a message came up on the screen
saying "The feature you are trying to use is on a net work resource that is unavailable.
Which particular .msi file does the message go on to say cannot be found? (Several different .msi files might be mentioned in this context: itunes.msi, bonjour.msi, AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi, etc.)

Apple TV 1st Generation: Update failed. Apple tv could not be updated

Hello,
I have a problem with my apple TV 1st Generation.
I did a Factory Restore and now i have
Software Version 2.0.2
Software Build 120
OS Build Version 8N5461
EFI Version 00DA.B04
GF Version 3.1.0/2.9.50
I wanna upgrade the Apple TV to Software Version 3.0.2 which is the last but all i get after downloading and installing the update is the same message
Update failed. Apple tv could not be updated. Make a Factory Restore
I have made over 20 Factory Restores but the same message all the time.
I changed the dns server to 8.8.8.8 and 208.067.222.222 but no luck with any of these solutions.
Can somebody help me please, so i can update my Apple TV.
Thanks in advance.

I have already tried to update Apple TV by cable and I still have the same result.
I still can't update it.
Any other solution?
The most annoying thing is that it downloads the update and when it starts installation of 3.0.2 then the message appears.
Can this be Apple's servers problem or Apple's TV problem?

Encryption failed because its identity could not be confirmed

Hello. I've been having this issue from time to time; I'm trying to connect to another computer which has both *Remote Management* and *Remote Login* activated. On this computer I got *Encrypt all network data (more secure)*, and for some reason after I try to connect to another computer (that has Remote Login activated) I keep getting this error:
Connection failed because its identity could not be confirmed. This could represent a security problem, or your SSH known_hosts file may be out of date.
Disable the "Encrypt all network data" security setting or update your SSH known_hosts file.
How would I update the SSH known_hosts file? And I thought all this was made automatically? I used to be able to do this before, but its not working lately.

Just found the answer:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27368
On the admin computer (Mac OS X client computer), choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu.
Type in the path name to your home folder adding /.ssh to the end of the path. example:
/Users/username/.ssh where username is your short name.
Inside the .ssh folder, open the known_hosts file.
Locate the Servers IP and or its fully qualified Domain name and delete it and the associated characters.Example:
example.example.com,192.104.192.118 ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIwAAAIEAutfhNudfFzZ00dyrU5O7/Y1wYhkhVJTSlNLqFROuvkmsB39Y8/> q47cQzdFqRfxsAlirDQKWW2xfr8qAKormuz7fT7so1myuanG24IYPwWmnZdLa3MdQ2zrWDkw672TZUT PBErrZYetej+KnU500mOcvdHjsj0SyPkqVRdPAXs=
Note: These characters can wrap to several lines.
Save and close the file.

HT4718 infinite loop error installing lion internet recovery "Install Mac OS X" window. " Install Failed Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer - Restart"

Hi all,
my macbook pro became extermily slow for some reason, I rebooted it many times and same problem so I decided to reinstall the Mac OS X lion from the internet.
I tried installing lion internet recovery, it downloaded it and restarted. I got the "Install Mac OS X" window. then while installing I got the sad message " Install Failed Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer" and the only botton is "restart". Everytime I restart I gor the same message. Now I am trying to start from the harddisk but I does not show when you start the pc, keep clicking the "alt" botton. It only shows "Mac OS X Installer" and "Recovery HD". What Should I do?
I appreciate your help. Thanks.

Thanks Baltwo.
I could format it and get the back up from time machine but it is not up to date so I want to leave it at last.
I tried to back it up on external hard drive and got an error, tried CCC for back up and error again.
Just wanted to do an update on the subject. Still trying to get it back.

I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet "

iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
Thank you.

My phone is the iPhone4 and my computer is a Windows Vista

I doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction.

I have the 20gb iPod that I need to put music back onto with my new computer. It starts to sync then it says "ITunes could not copy the song to the iPod because the file could not be read or written. ????

I have a 20gb iPod that needs music from ITunes. On my new computer I am trying to sync but I get error message "could not copy to iPod because file could not be read or written. Attempting to copy to the disk failed. The disk could not be read from or written to." I have tried several times and have reset to factory settings.

Is the new PC running XP as well, Chalotte?
If so, I might start with the following document (your error message is a possible symptom of the issue too):
iTunes displays -50 error message when syncing iPod on Windows XP

Adobe Air I get this message: The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged....

Every time I try to install new product through adobe air I get this message: The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged. Try obtaining a new installer file from the application author. Kiran Kumar: May I have the product name and version you are referring to? I've looked over the online suggested repair which indicates to search for and delete Adobe Muse but when go looking for it, it doesn't seem to exist. How can I get this resolved?

Finally found a fix on my own....Wasted like 3 hours today. Hope this helps for anyone struggling with that stupid error message:

"Sorry, an error has occured. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged

Hello-
I have an air application that is distributed via CDROM, the app is signed by a code signing certificate and timestamped. In mid-August when my certicate expired my users started calling stating that they couldn't install our product due to the following error: "Sorry, an error has occured. The application could not be installed because the AIR file is damaged. Try obtaining a new AIR file from the application author." From my understanding a timestamped application is taken at a point in time when it's generated so why would it matter if the certificate was still valid? I have since replaced the certificate and will need to redistribute to my (thousands of) users however when I test it out using a future date and time the same error occurs. Any information to help resolve this would be grately appreciated.

my command:
C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adl
application.xml
C:\Users\HOME USE\Desktop\AIR Development\HelloWorld>adt
-certificate -cn HelloW
orld 1024-RSA certHelloWorld.pfx password

Hi Ahmad, I have the same problem, I have a server windows server 2008 R2 standard. While
doing an Enterprise to Standard downgrade, I have removed enterprise edition of SQL Server 2008, rebooted and while installing standard edition, I get the below error saying "You SQL server 2008 installation completed with failures. Some or all identity
references could not be translated"
Bit of background. This server has another express instance of SQL Server 2008. I have
used local system account, network service as well as our general SQL service account, but I get the error towards the end of the installation and it fails saying “Some or all identity references could not be translated.”
I am installing a named instance with the same name as before but fails. I have tried
creating a new test instance that fails too. Any ideas? I have uninstalled SQL enterprise edition from
Add and Remore Programs/Programs and Features. I've also run the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility but no joy.
Cheers

You should be able to install Mac OS X 10.7 or later on your 2011 MacBook Pro without issue, if it came with 10.6.3 as your signature suggests. Mind you, any 2011 MacBook Pro must use the original 10.6 installer disc labelled MacBook Pro if it desires to have 10.6 installed on it. The retail installer disc will not work on that model, nor will one from another age MacBook Pro, or other model labelled installer. Also
10.7 came both on USB Flash drive and Mac App Store installer versions. Both required either 10.6.6 minimum be pre-installed, or no Mac OS X operating system on the drive or partition it was to be installed on.
10.7.1 through 10.7.5 combo could be installed only once 10.7 had been installed. A combo update is available for installing on top of any version of 10.7. Otherwise only the preceding version could be updated to the next.
10.8 came only on Mac App Store installer. It is available only to 10.6.8 and later users.
10.8.1 to 10.8.5 combo could be installed only once 10.8 had been installed. A combo update is available for installing on top of any version of 10.8. Otherwise only the preceding version could be updated to the next.
10.9 came only on Mac App Store installer. It is available only to 10.6.8 and later users.
Both 10.9 and 10.9.1 had a serious security vulnerability, which only 10.9.2 addressed.
10.9.2 combo could be installed only once 10.9 had been installed.
For all three Mac App Store releases, the partition to be installed on had to be GUID partition formatted according to Apple Disk Utility.

EVERY start-up automatic (?) 'installing update' fails because 'The update could not be installed. ...'
