Getting stuck on initial install from site

I just bought a new laptop and I'm trying to download iTunes 9 64-bit. Every time I attempt this, it gets stuck at approximately 8%. It stops at this exact point every time, and I have tried downloading from IE, Firefox, and Safari. I even exchanged my laptop and I'm having the same result. What is going on??

But for the sake of experiment, I tried downloading iTunes to a usb through another computer in the house (connected to the same network). The 64-bit download failed at the exact same spot, 8%
That's definitely suggesting an issue with the home network if downloads on both PCs are failing at precisely the same spot.
Are you within range of a different public wireless network, Lauren? If so, are you able to successfully complete a download if you connect to that network rather than your home network? (If your neighbors have a network, and you're on reasonably good terms with them, perhaps you could ask them if they wouldn't mind if you tried connecting to their network for a download?)

ITunes installation always get stuck on "Initializing QuickTime types"

Whenever i try to install iTunes and QuickTime it always get stuck on "Initializing QuickTime types."
I am not able to update my software!
Please Help!

Me Too!!
I have XP SP3. Intel pentium 4 2.6Ghz. 4Gb RAM. 116GB open on one HDD, 72GB open on the other.
I'm on Admin access level.
I'm trying to install iTunes 7.7 bundled with Quicktime 7.5.
I emptied my temp folders.
I shut down my antivirus and anti-spyware.
I shut down all non-essential startup menu items.
My folder names dont have unusual characters.
I have uninstalled all versions of Quicktime and iTunes and iPod updaters from my machine.
Still no luck.
When Installing the Quicktime application, the entire machine locks up when it gets to the "Initializing Quicktime types" segment of the install.
I have left the machine on its own for up to 14 hrs and it never does regain normal function.
The only way to regain control is to reset or hard shutdown.
Can someone please respond to this so my daughter can use her 2 month old graduation present?
Thank you so very much.
PS:
How about standalone downloads for each application?
And, how about patches so the download doesnt take so long and the installation doesn't need to be so intrusive?

Getting stuck at "Initializing Installer" when installing Adobe CS6 Master Collection

I've successfully downloaded the .dmg file to install the Master Collection. After opening it, the "Initializing Installer" window pops up, then it gets stuck there. Attempting to cancel it freezes my Mac. Restarting hasn't helped. Any suggestions?

Hi czarUTD,
Please try installing it by enabling the root user account on Mac and check. ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1528 )

Weather page stuck on initial date from the first time I opened it. Will not update. Have deleted history, cookies. Comics do not update either, still stuck on the original day I opened them after installing Firefox. Help Please

Have updated all plug-ins and add-on. Not sure if this is related or not, when I tried to use "live chat" that link would not work.

If you are using bookmarks to open the sites then make sure that you do not use bookmarks that have GET data appended (?xxx=xxx) to specify a specific page.
* "Clear the Cache": Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
* "Remove the Cookies" from sites causing problems: Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted.
Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlitecookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] in case cookies.sqlite got corrupted.

Safari gets stuck/very slow on some sites

Some weeks ago I did install by mistake a Mavericks Developer Pre-Release of 10.9.2 (or 10.9.3... I don't remember exactly) on my development Mac.
Since then Safari gets stuck on some sites; one of them is StackOverlow. The page loads partially then Safari hangs for some time 5-15 secs. (user interface becomes non-responsive with spinning wheel) then the page finish to load.
I was hoping the problem would have been fixed with the first public release so I didn't swiched back to the last backup (second mistake, very stupid).
Now on 10.9.5, Safari 7.1.2 (9537.85.11.5) the problem still persists.
I hope there is a way to fix the issue without reinstalling everything.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Paolo.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

PXE OS Deployment gets stuck at Initializing Windows PE "Windows is starting up..." SCCM 2012 R2

When trying to deploy OS using PXE the client machine gets to the window where it shows "Initializing Windows PE" and "Windows is starting up..." However it never gets past this point. I've left it overnight hoping it would
eventually get past this but no luck. Not sure which log file I should be looking at for further troubleshooting. Thank You

I've downloaded the drivers for the Intel E1000 NIC that the vm is using and created the driver package and added it to the x86 boot image. VM still gets stuck at Initialinzing Windows PE. Command support is enabled on the boot image
and I can see the SMSTS log file is there but I have no way of accessing it or copying it somewhere to view it.
WinPE has cmtrace By default, so hit F8, type cmtrace and open smsts.log from C:\Windows\Temp with it. Cmtrace is much-much better than notepad!
E1000 is a good choice for NIC in VMware, done that myself. Another common reason could be disk driver, you may want to try it By chaninging defauls scsi to IDE inside that VM.

I removed boot camp from my macbook pro and when it restarted it went to disk utility and will not let me restore or set up a new osx , how can i get the macbook to install from the disk i have

i have tried every possible way in os x utlility to restore or reload from my disk or backup and it will not allow me to do it. I have the original disk with 10.6 but i cant install from it. Please any help would be great as i have a 1200 paper weight

On the advice of a friend I installed and ran a program on my MacBook called 'IPSecuritas'. This has stopped my wireless network from appearing and disappearing, but I still can't connect. Would really appreciate some help with this.

HP CP4025 getting stuck on "initializing" on starting up

HI!
I need your help. I have a HP Color Laserjet CP4025 that I am trying to start up and it keeps getting stuck on Itializing, thus i cannot getto the menu to look at anything. I tried doing the firmware update but the printer won't start up enough to accept it. What do i do?

Hi,
Hard restarts sometimes cause no problems and sometimes can corrupt system files.
Please see this HP Support document on troubleshooting this issue.
Did you create a Microsoft USB Recovery Drive? Boot to this drive and try a system restore or refresh.
Two successive failed boots may take you to the Advanced Recovery Environment which is the same as having the USB recovery drive. Click on "Troubleshoot" for recovery options.

TS1702 App gets stuck and says installing. Nothing more happens.

Tried to install the Pinterest app from the App Store. However, the app icon says installing on both the App Store location and it says waiting on my home page. I cannot delete the icon on my home page since no x appears next to the icon. I tried installing a different app from the App Store and it worked fine. But the Pinterest app still says installing. I also tried rebooting my iPad and reset the settings, but this is still stuck. Any suggestions?

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.
Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.
 Cheers, Tom

Mail keeps getting stuck checking mail and just sits there

My dad's dual G5 is having weird mail problems. When you open Mail, it initiates the checking the mail procedure. The Activity Viewer says that it is checking X out of 1700 at this point and it gets to 71 and then hangs on one spam message written in Russian. He has his laptop set up to check this same email account (Pop mail on our virtual server) and it is still working fine, so I think its something on his version of Mail on that computer.
Any suggestions?
If we reinstall Mail, will his messages disappear?
Is there a preferences file to throw away like in the old days?
Thanks!
dual G5 desktop Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Are there 1700 messages on the server? What are his Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove copy from server settings for this account?
Sometimes messages left on the server clog up the account there, or Mail chokes on a message it cannot download and that prevents it from downloading the rest as well. Solving this problem will probably require removing one or more messages from the server.
You may tell Mail to remove from the server all the messages that have already been downloaded by means of Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove now. Alternatively, you may use the Account Info window to remove specific messages from the server — choose Get Info (⌘I) from the Action menu (gear icon) located below the mailbox list in the main Mail window. And if the account allows web access, you may also remove messages from the server that way.
Try removing from the server messages that have already been downloaded and/or the first message not downloaded yet (i.e. the message that Mail appears to be choking on).

Getting Sun ONE Initial Context from standalone client

Hi,
I'm having problems connecting to Sun One's JNDI from a standalone client ... I've seen other topics raised with similar problems but with no real answers.
I can connect to what i think is a different JNDI resource with:
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(javax.naming.Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,           "com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.CNCtxFactory");
env.put("java.naming.provider.url", "iiop://localhost:3700");
jndiContext = new InitialContext(env);
But this JNDI does not hold my JMS resources (connection factories, queues, etc) ??? Am i connecting to the wrong port??
I've tried to look at the documentation but with no success.
Any ideas?
cheers,
Chico.

Where/How do I get a new disk image to install from

I'm a linux guy so I am used to just downloading the latest... where can I get an image to install from?
I have a Mini PCC and want to completely refresh the thing...

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
What's a Mini PCC? Are you talking a PowerPC Mac Mini?
And the latest what? Mac OS X, except for incremental updates, which this forum is about is not available for download (you can download the update from 10.4 to 10.4.7 for instance, if that's what you want, but you can't download the full 10.4.7 from scratch). Macs can run the operating system they came with or newer retail operating system up to what specs allow. Macs can also run Linux, though Mac OS X is itself very much like Linux as it has both an XWindows environment and a simple ANSI terminal with a bourne shell into its FreeBSD based command line. So the question becomes what you are going to try to run on your computer?
