Free version installation wont work

I am stuck on this Adobe Download Assistant page where I am asked to log in, I have but nothing happens when I click 'Sign in'.

I completely agree with the topic poster.
Let's think and not just knee jerk.
First, why did Jobs introduce the bumper right at the same roll out of the iP4? I mean isn't that odd to talk about cases like some side show pitchman along side a fine, new item like the 4?
Answer- he knew at that time the external antenna was susceptible to issues if held in the lower left corner. The proof of that is his quote from the press conf. when, in addressing the issue, he said, "look we even show you where it is…x marks the spot." (as he referred to the antenna seam)
So, conclusion, issue was known and anticipated and admitted.
That brings us to the bumper. If they knew the issue and wanted to help ameliorate it, why not build a bumper that not only addresses the antenna but one that also allows maximum access to the charging opening, accommodating most chargers?
Why risk further customer issues?
Apple is a hi-tech hardware design company with few if any peers.
You're telling me they couldn't figure this out, that they couldn't build in the "Dremeled" more accessible bumper bottom?
Come on.
They blew it. That's the answer. They are human and they rushed this "patch" with the supplier and blew it.
And in the middle of a fiasco (that's what the antenna issue became) they further alienate good customers, like the person initiating this topic and countless others no doubt, by not attending to a small yet critical issue with the bumper.
So, poster of this thread, you are right.
Others, yes there are alternatives but as a business owner myself I'd advise Apple not to alienate paying customers.
All that said… the iP4 is marvelous.
Get a case that's made correctly like I did and there is no issue at all with reception. In fact it is VASTLY improved for my usage.
That may not be the same for all and that's why we listen respectfully in this forum.
So we can be helpful. Right?

I stopped installation, wont work.

hey, i dont know if this is a common issue or not but i searched for it and couldnt find an answer....so here's what happened. I finally started to install version 10.4.11 from the Software Update. it was taking forever and i had to turn off my installation process. so i Quit (force quit?) Software Update....It was in the final step of isntallation, in fact it was just sitting there at the end (abour 97% finished) for almost 10 minutes.
A few hours later after i had more time to wait for that stupid installation to finish i open Software Update and it says i don't have any new Update and also it wont open it. I Restarted the computer and opened it again...nothing. i look at the About This Mac and it says i'm currently running 10.4.11 but the wierd thing is, is that i never finished letting it install...AND on top of that, my safari doesnt work...which is the main reason i updated to 10.4.11
I'm using FireFox and i downloaded 10.4.11 from the apple site. i open it up and when it opens, it automatically quits and says there's an error....
SO...what i'm asking, is there a way to finish the installation of 10.4.11 after force quiting the Software Updates? or is this version perma-bugged. thanks apple.

After you have followed Barry's important advice, please bear this in mind:
There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.10 to 10.4.11. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them 10.4.10. compliant. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
If you are updating to Safari 3.0.4 (or just have):
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed 10.4.11 and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 uses Safari 3.0.4 which is not a beta. If Safari 3.0.4 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
Moreover, trying to revert to Safari 2 when running 10.4.11 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.0.4 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail and Dashboard Widgets etc also rely.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Two such add-on that have been frequently mentioned here for causing such problems are Piclens and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them.

Coldfusion dev installer wont work - "installer user interface mode not supported..."

i just downloaded the os x version of coldfusion 7 mx
developer edition (for the thrid time making sure the download
wasn't corrupt) and extracted the zip and launched the installer by
double-clicking it. the install screen pops up where it lets you
choose what language and i press ok. almost instantly i get an
error message to pop up that says... "Installer user interface mode
not supported. Unable to load and to prepare the installer in GUI
mode."
umm... what?!
does anyone have any idea what's going on and why the
installer is misbehaving?! thanks!
: : michael

and the answer for others stuck on this...
the problems is an installanywhere bug where if the anything
in the directory path contains special characters like "!" or "#" ,
it causes problems with the install. in my case, the directory path
had a "!" in it... hope this helps someone else out!

L7680 driver installation wont work with Windows 8.1

I recently bought a new HP Pavilion laptop and updated to windows 8.1 not long after the purchase. I tried to install my Officejet Pro L7680 all in one printer today and was unsuccessful on every attempt. The driver/software will download but when I attempt to install the software I get a message of "cannot find file specified". I called HP and spoke to a rep who informed me that my printer was too old and wasn't compatible with the Windows 8.1 system. He said there was no update available for my printer and basically I would have to buy a new printer. Bad answer!!!
The issue is a missing file from the Preload Drivers folder: Msiexec.exe
Please help me find a way to install my printer
This question was solved.

Hi exumsta
Yes the anitivirus software could be causing issues.
I would make sure it is turned off during the installation.
Here is a url to temporarily disable all the start up programs to see if one of them is causing any issues.

You will have to follow the same steps to enable all again.

Installer wont work

Plz help!! I tried to open safari the other day and the icon popped up bounced for a second and then dissapeared. I am new to Mac so I am totally lost. I had recently downloaded Mozilla/firefox (thank god...unless this is what caused the prob) so I at least have a web browser to use. I was givin this computer and I have no start up disks. I called my friend who works at the apple store she told me to try uninstalling safari and redownloading it, after emptying the trash. Ok so I did this....well tried...now everytime I try to download anything this is the message i get..... INSTALLER QUIT UNEXPECTADLY Mac OS X and other applications are not affected.
Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple.
When I try to reopen the same thing happens. Any ideas???? I thought I needed to do some updates but I cant even update anything.

Try moving Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.installer.plist (the Preferences folder in your user area, not the one in the top level Library folder) to the desktop and then start the installer. If that works you can trash the file as a new, uncorrupted one will have been made to replace it.
Firefox and Safari can coexist with no problem. You can even run them at the same time if need be (I do this on rare occasions where a web site will load in one but not the other).

ITunes installation wont work

hi sorry for my english because im french.
My problem is that :
"Le programme d'installion ne dispose pas des privileges suffisant pour acceder au reppertoire C:\Program files\Bonjour\Bonjour.Ressources.Impossible de poursuivre l'Installation.Ouvrez une session en tant qu'administrateur ou contactez votre administrateur systeme"
but i don't have this files, so i decided to install bonjour, but he says to me :
"Erreur lors de l'ecriture dans le fichier C:\ProgramFiles\Bonjour\mdnsNSP.dll.Verifiez que vous etes autorisé a acceder a ce repertoire."
after this i have a choice:
" Interrompre Réessayer Ignorer"
i decide to ignore but it says me again :
"Erreur lors de l'ecriture dans le fichier C:\Windows\system32\dnssd.dll"
Can someone give me help?
Before any question a want to says that i was running on administrator session and that i have no Virus in my computer.
Thanks

The messages are consistent with disk/file damage, jean, although it's a bit odd to be getting them on three different file locations at once.
Try renaming the entire BonJour folder at:
C:\Program files\BonJour
... to:
C:\Program files\BonJourOLD
and try renaming the dnssd.dll file at:
C:\Windows\system32\dnssd.dll
... to:
C:\Windows\system32\dnssdOLD.dll
(If Windows won't let you rename the file or the folder, let us know what the error message says. The French text is fine.)
If the file and folder can be renamed, try another BonJour install. Does it go through properly this time?

Free bumper cases wont work with car chargers

Apple sent me a bumper and I tried it with a griffin car charger and it will not plug in as the cutout in the case is not large enough to fit the end of the cord. These have been around for a while and if you want to use them do not order the bumper. I called Apple and they stonewalled and said it was a third party item and they do not guarantee to work with them even though they sell them on their web site. They will not send out a case that works either. Typical I guess as Apple never makes a mistake.

I completely agree with the topic poster.

Updating FREE version of iPhoto to work with Leopard?

Recently upgraded our iBook G4 to Leopard. Now, the System says iPhoto 2.04 (free version) won't work with Leopard. None of the iPhoto upgrades avalable (4, 5, 6) work as upgrades. In the iPhoto discussion, others said the only option is to PAY for iLife '08.
Is that true? I have iPhoto v5.04 on my PB G4, and it works under Leopard. I never purchased iLife.
Suggestions, please

I don't know for sure about iPhoto 2's (in)compatibility with Leopard, but if that part is true, then you will have to pay for the upgrade.
iPhoto 2 is over five years old. Besides the fact that the current version is WAY more advanced, I have to say that any software that only makes you pay for an upgrade one time in a period of almost six years is a tremendous bargain.

Will the iphone 6 plus work in pakistan if i buy the unlocked and contract free version from the apple store?

will the iphone 6 plus work in pakistan if i buy the unlocked and contract free version from the apple store? why is t mobile written on top of the button? it is so confusing no one will give me a straight answer on this. if i buy that one, would there be any monthly charges involved or not?

Are you planning on flying to and visiting the US? That is the only way you are going to get an iPhone from the Apple store because you will not be able to purchase one from the Apple store online and get it sent to Pakistan - it can't be done and Apple online stores will not ship internationally.
You have not got a straight answer to this question because there is none. The phone has T-Mobile on the top button, because it is a T-Mobile phone and although sold as contract free, but NOT unlocked - notice the difference, it still comes with a T-Mobile sim card.
The phone may or may not work in Paskistan and if you do buy the phone, to ensure that it has the best possible chance of working is to take the T-Mobile sim card out of the phone first and DO NOT activate the phone using the T-Mobile sim. If you want to use it in Pakistan, then activate it with your local Pakistan sim card and you will not be paying any charges to T-Mobile if you do this. If you do happen to accidentally activate the phone with the T-Mobile sim card in it, then you will have a contract with them and yes, you will have a monthly bill with T-Mobile and you will need to keep this contract for 40 days, until you can get the phone unlocked by them.
Also note, that if you buy the phone it may not work on 4G networks in Pakistan due to frequency differences and also you will have no warranty cover for the phone in Pakistan - iPhone warranty is NOT international, so country of original purchase, so the US, which means you have to fly back there - no postage accepted.
So basically, the phone should work in Pakistan, but not on the 4G networks and you need to take the T-Mobile sim card out before you activate it and activate it using a local sim card and you will have NO warranty cover for the phone in Pakistan.
