*FIX* Software Updater install errors *FIX*

If you're getting an error 1720 when trying to install Nokia Software Updater, there is a workaround.
The error is only in Nokia's combined installer, not the NSU installer itself.
1. Download and install 7-Zip. Don't worry it's free!
(No, neither WinRAR nor WinZip will do for this)
Get it here: http://www.7-zip.org/download.html
2. Use 7-Zip to extract the contents of NokiaSoftwareUpdaterSetup_en.exe into a folder. You should now have a bunch of folders and a few files.
3. Go into Packages, then NokiaSoftwareUpdater, then Setup
4. Launch NokiaSoftwareUpdater.msi (double-click it).
5. That's it!
I think the problem must be a script Nokia have used in their combined installer, which in itself is unnecessary as NokiaSoftwareUpdater.msi will start the installers for the other apps and drivers anyway. Those crazy Fins!
Whatever, this worked for me so hopefully it'll work for you too! :-)
I didn't get where I am today.

.:UPDATE:.
Unfortunately this workaround doesn't work with the updated NSU (version 01.04.053.34607) that came out on July 31st (2008).
Whatever Nokia have done, it now means that even after extracting the installer from the package, you will still get Error 1720.
Nokia, why are you breaking your software for us?! Please simplify the installations so we can keep our devices' firmware up to date. Otherwise what's the point of your programmers constantly coding updates?
Sheesh!

  • 10.4.6 Software Update Install Error

    After downloading the 10.4.6 update using Software update on an iBook G4 (1.42 GHz, 1 GB DDR SDRAM, OS X 10.4.5) and pressing the "Install" button, I recieve this error:
    "The update cannot be installed: The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by Apple."
    I have attempted to install this update multiple times - first over a wifi connection, later on a wired ethernet connection. The package Software Update is downloading obviously contains the correct signature, as it is the same data downloaded and installed by many other OS X users, without a hitch.
    Instead, I think the part of OS X that checks for the digital signature is somehow corrupted or otherwise invalid. Where is this component located? Is it something I can fix myself?
    I could be entirely wrong, though. Any information would be much appreciated.

    hi Spook_y, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Sorry to hear of your problem.
    Instead, I think the part of OS X that checks for the digital signature is somehow corrupted or otherwise invalid. Where is this component located? Is it something I can fix myself?
    I can not answer these questions, however if i were you I would dump that one download and follow a brodys advice in his Topic:
    Now that 10.4.6 is out, let's review the upgrade steps
    a brody's to update.
    I followed this advice, including restarting twice and i have no issues, at all.
    Good luck
    Hope this helps.
    Please keep us posted~ Eme

  • [Help]Software updater Install error

    there is a error when I install software updater, it says:
    there is a problem with this windows installer package. a script required for this install to complete could not be run,contact your support personnel or package vendor. custom action kill_process script error -2147217407, : Line 5, Colum 1.
    could you guys help me to install it please?
    I want to update my phone.
    wait for you. Thanks again.

    If all of your Windows did that, this means Windows is somehow corrupted. This happens all the time. My PC will have regular wipe out routine in every six months +/-. Format and do clean installation of Windows again. Or at least try to do "run = c:\sfc /scannow" and put your original CD/DVD Windows installation in.Message Edited by delixis on 20-Nov-200703:12 AM

  • Nokia Software Updater Installing Error

    I've downloaded the Nokia Software Updater. But when I tried to install it to my PC, halfway through, it said,
    error 1304.Error writing to file msxml4.dll. Verify that you have access to that directory.
    but I am the computer's administrator! what can I do with this error? can someone help me, please?

    Hi gtjia
    Are your Windows updates automatic as I just wondered whether you have an older version of msxm14.dll present.
    Happy to have helped forum in a small way with a Support Ratio = 37.0

  • What does software update 1.22 fix?

    Does anyone know what software update 1.22 fix?

    Yes. My flicker was most noticeable when i was using dashboard and had a white background for my desktop on any setting less than full brightness. After the update the problem is gone as I type this at a low brightness setting. I think the Nvidia card was not optimized for LED back lighting.

  • Last night, mail suddenly lost all my emails, which were stored in mailboxes.  What happened and how can I find my lost files?  I have the latest MacBookPro, running Lion 10.7.2 all software updates installed

    Last night the mail application from Apple lost all my old emails, which were stored in mailboxes, neatly sorted by category.  What happened and how do I find them? 
    Details:  I shut down mail to run errands outside my office.  My late model MacBook Pro was on "sleep".  When I returned, I opened the application, and (RATS!) all the mailboxes were missing.  They just evaporated. 
    Operating system:  10.7.2 - all software updates installed and current as of 24 hours ago (12-30-11, 6 AM EST). 
    ln the mail program, the trash folder is OK and the sent folder is OK. 
    Yesterday, I did no maintenance on my mail folders.
    HELP! 

    1 - the sudden disappearance of my 22 mailboxes, used to sort the emails that I need to file for future use
    That was most likely the result of some kind of corruption, as I've already said, not a bug in Mail.  Have you repaired the hard drive with Disk Utility recently?  That wouldn't be a bad idea.
    2 - at random times, mail (or the server) says that my password is incorrect and I must reenter (fix:  usually I can quit mail, restart, and the connection is restored without reentering my password)
    This is a known issue, where a failure to respond promptly on the server's end mimics what happens when the password is rejected.  There's no need to quit Mail, just cancel when asked to enter the password, take the account back online and try again.
    3 - mail seems to resort the mail in my mailboxes at random time.  Several times a day, I must reset the sort to (a) by date; (b) by desending
    Never seen that before.  That points more to some kind of possible corruption in your Mail data or preference files.

    Several users are reporting a server problem with Software Update. Why not wait and try again later today or tomorrow to see if the problem is resolved.
    If the problem is on your computer then give this a try:
    Fix for Software Update
    See Troubleshooting Automatic Software Update in Mac OS X.
    Delete the following files:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.xxx.plist where "xxx" is a number.

  • "software update"  "An error occurred while checking for updates"

    When I click on "Software Update", an error results, "An error occurred while checking for updates".  It is definitely connected to the internet.  I was gifted a G5 and I installed a new hard drive and loaded the OS, OS X 10.3.5.  That version of Safari does not display pages correctly.  E.g., support.apple.com/downloads just clocks on the righthand side of the page.
    Because cannot access that link, cannot manually update the OS - I was thinking this version is "old" and as a result, unable to connect to apple's update server.  Thanks.

    Thanks,  I upgraded with your info.
    Ultimately, I am trying to access mail.google.com but receiving  the following error with opera v9.5.x: Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version.
    Safari gives the following: Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version.

  • "Can't connect to iPad Software Update Server" Error. How Can I Fix This?

    I keep getting an error saying, "The iPad cannot be updated at this time because the iPad software update server could not be contacted or in temporarily unavailable.", whenever I try to update to 3.2.2 or restore my iPad. This has been happening for a couple of months now. Can someone please help me!? Apple only addresses this issue for Windows. And have searched all of google and can't find anything.

    Ahha! I have just overcome this problem myself.
    Being a highly tech savvy I immediatly assumed that this was a most complex and difficult problem to overcome. So naturally I started looking at things like port 80 and internet proxy options.
    But alas, it was my anti-virus which caused this error! A most dispicable fiend.
    Solution:
    I have Avast anti-virus so I will tell you how I disabled mine.
    Open up the program and its friendly user interface, go to Settings at the top. In the newly opened Settings window go to the left and chose Troubleshoot from the nice little list at the bottom and then in the check box area that has appeared uncheck the Avast defence module. Now hit OK / APPLY.
    Now you may close Avast completely. (Since exitting out only hides it in the background)
    Hit control+alt+delete and open the Task panel.
    Scroll across from programs -> processes,
    Now find the AvastUI.exe or something along those lines and end that process.
    Avast! It is now closed! and you may Restore/Update at will!

  • Macbook will not boot up after running Software Update (Couldn't fix it)

    Hi there,
    I also have been experiencing some problems after running Software Update (Security update + Java) a couple of days ago. Similarly to Jandaf (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9000023) I have only the gray start up screen + Apple logo + gear wheel constantly rotating. Based on the information provided in this forum I have tried some procedures which didn't solved my problem so far. Below I describe I have tried:
    1) I have booted using the installation DVD and run the disk utility. When performing the First Aid/Verify Disk I found some errors ('Invalid node structure'). But I couldn't fix the problem using disk repair (same problem 'Invalid node structure' 'Volume check failed'.
    2) I also tried to boot in single user mode (command + s) to run fsck -fy. It didn't work. I got the following message (last 4 lines):
    CSRHIDTTransitionDriver::probe: -s
    CSRHIDTTransitionDriver::probe: booting in single user .. do not match
    Extension "com.apple.driver.AppleUSBTCKeyboard" has no kernel dependency.
    Extension "com.apple.driver.AppleUSBTCEventDriver" has no kernel dependency.
    3) When trying to boot in safe mode. I got a grey screen with the following message:
    'You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button for several seconds or press the Restart button".
    4) I also tried to 'Archieve & Instal'. Again no success. After reading the DVD the action is terminated because some errors (does not specify).
    5) I also tried the 'German Medicine' (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8728797#8728797) (i.e. Connect the 'problematic MacBook' to my old G4 via firewire and reinstall the 2009-001 update). Again no success. The G4 cannot mount the MacBook hardrive.
    I don't know what to do any more.
    A) Can I resuscitate my old system? If yes how?
    B) If not, can I at least save the data I have in my old HD?
    C) Is it possible to format and reinstall the OS or is this this computer doomed?
    Apologies for writing so many questions but I'm really freaking out!
    Thank you.
    B.

    What's going on? and How to fix it my Leopard Software Update Problem

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Does it go through properly this time?

  • HT1351 Music imported from  CDs will not synch to my iphone or ipad - even though it's ticked and set up correctly. Looking at other posts this seems ot have been an issue for ages. The latest itunes software update hasn't fixed it

    This has now been ongoing for over a month - the lastest software release hasn't fixed it.
    I can import music from CDs - the tracks are ticked for synching and all the associated rigmarole is correct.
    Problem is when I synch, apps go across but imported music doesn't. It just gets to step 5 - waiting for changes to be applied  - and then does nothing until it eventually finishes synching but no music has come across.
    Same issue on my iphone.
    I have looked at some solutions on forums but they seem complicated and I don't understand why apple haven't yet fixed this (or why you can't contact them). Seems a basic fundamental service that they are not supplying.
    Having spoken to people in the family, its seems I'm not laone with this problem (unless you have a mac......)

    I had this same problem with my new MBP 15", but only with the USB port on the left side. The USB port on the right side worked fine. Perhaps the ports on the left don't have enough signal energy for the iPhone.
    Anyway, try using a different USB port, and if that doesn't work, perhaps you could try a powered USB hub.

Maybe you are looking for
