Help cant install shockwave

i want to install shockwave player but i have vista i try to
instal on the site and the videos plays with install complete but
it wasnt installed

Your machine is called "Lombard". Its a good machine. You should get more memory, though.
1. the mac os x 10.2.8, wat doe this mean, and is it good.Also can i update it to a new edition for free?and how
Your OS is adequate, but you would benefit from upgrading to 10.3.9, which is the highest your machine natively supports. Any 10.3 will do, as you can update from there through Apple for free. However, you will need the OS install on CDs, as you don't have a DVD-ROM.
2. This is the real problem. Everytime i wna install something it wont work.For example, i downloaded flashplayer installation so i can install it. When it finished dowloading to my desktop i clicked on it to install it. When i did so, a window poped up and said that there is no default application specified to open this document. And then on the botom it says choose application. And i dont know wat application im supposed to choose to instal flashplayer. This hapapens to everything i want to install like limewire and shockwave. I cant install anything! So plz help me solve this problem.
Make sure you are downloading Mac programs (i.e.) no .exe files. Make sure the programs support your OS. As pointed out, you may be lacking the installer, which should be located in your Utilities folder.

  • Please help cant install iTunes 7.7

    i was using the previous version and just started off an update when prompted for iTunes 7.7, but the update then failed (sadly it didnt really give any info about the failure). I have tried downlaoding and installing manualy but still no joy the installation just fails and says i need to reinstall iTunes.
    However....i cant uninstall it :o I have tried uninstalling through add>remove programs but it just gets so far then seems to roll back and iTunes is still there.
    I tried doing a repair with the itunes 64 setup but that didnt seem to work either.
    I have since uninstalled quick time and tried to uninstall iTunes but still stuck in the same situation of it refusing to uninstall.
    Please help guys 'ANY' thoughts apreciated
    cheers

    However....i cant uninstall it :o I have tried uninstalling through add>remove programs but it just gets so far then seems to roll back and iTunes is still there.
    Okay. Let's try uninstalling the existing version by other means.
    Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Now launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any iTunes entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those entries, and click “remove”.
    Next, we'll manually remove any leftover iTunes program files:
    (1) Open Local Disk (C:) in Computer or whichever disk programs are installed on.
    (2) Open the Program Files folder.
    (3) Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
    Now restart the PC and try another install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Installing help, cant install Adobe Reader/Acrobat Error 2402

    Ive been using Adobe Reader for awhile now as many of you have however when i wasnt able to install the latest 1.104 update i wondered why.
    Kept getting Error message 2402 Out of Memory.
    So i tried deleting older versions of Reader as with much success was able to remove it from Control Panel with Microsoft FixIt, then with CCleaner program was able to remove from my Registery.
    After a fresh reboot i went back to Adobe.com i tried installing ReaderX on both the latest versions of Firefox (main web browser) and Internet Explorer both not being able to finish the install due to Error 2402. I also tried a free trial of AcrobatX, same outcome as expected. I enjoy being able to view PDF files for both home use and college and without Reader it makes that difficult.
    I also tried installing Version 9.5, same result
    Any help is more than appriecated, im not too techie but i will try to provide any additional info i can

    Amazon may not have the correct drive for you, as it may need a firmware patch.  http://www.macsales.com/ and http://www.mcetech.com/ are the only ones that have known fully compatible drives with Macs on the optical front.  http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/ can tell you what might be needed for other drives, and it varies.

  • Help, Cant install Mountain lion. Hardrive format issues

    I'm on a late 2009 macbook pro laptop and i decided to upgrade to the new mountain lion update. I've paid and downloaded the files, but upon install i get this
    what do i need to do?, I dont have an hardrive to back up and i don't wanto loose the files on my laptop.

    This error isn't making a lot of sense to begin with. You hard drive HAS to be in the Mac OS Extended Journaled format for an OS to be installed so if it wasn't then you shouldn't be able to boot it up right now.
    You don't say what OS you currently have on the MBP but you need to go to Disk Utility and see what format the HD and its volumes are in.
    You can access it in 3 ways - open the Finder and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility,
                                              -  insert the disk that came with your Mac, reboot holding the C key, choose English as the language and then open Disk Utility from the Utilities menu along the top of the screen,
                                              - If you have Lion installed boot the Mac holding Command and R, choose English if prompted and then open Disk Utility.
    You need to make sure the HD itself has the right Partition Map Scheme - GUID Partition Table. You also need to make sure that Macintosh HD is in the format listed in your screen shot.  

  • HELP - Cant install iPod MINI

    I am furious - spent all day with my birthday present. Doesn't work. While trying to install. I start the software on the CD, then plug in the iPod (software states that iPod is connected) then it states that it is checking for formatting - within seconds a dialog box pops up:
    "iPodDeviceInternal assert"
    assertion b failed at .\iPodDeviceCommon.cpp line 166
    What do I do?

    Yes... you have a virus on your PC that alters how EXE files operate.
    Either update your virus definitions and scan your WHOLE PC or since (more likely) you don't have a virus program, download the free one at
    http://free.grisoft.com
    Make sure you update it and scan it.
    While you are at it, get the Microsoft Anti Spyware at

  • Windows xp pro x64 edition HELP -- Cant install Itunes

    I have searched and can only find answeres that are 4 and 5 years old.
    Can I download Itunes for this machine? If not, is there a program I can use that will allow me to play my ipod on this machine?
    Thanks you
    God Bless
    SOG

    The answers from four or five years ago still apply. There is no version of iTunes that supports the 64-bit version of Windows XP and never will be. If you search this forum for "XP 64"or do a web search for something like "iTunes Windows XP 64",  you'll find threads describing the process some people have used to "crowbar" iTunes onto XP 64, with varying levels of success, none of them complete.  
    As to alternatives, there are third-party utilities such as MediaMonkey, Ephpod, or Xplay for handling the transfer.  I haven't used any of these, so I can't make any recommendations. These applications cannot connect to the iTunes Store, so you will not be able to purchase content from the Store. The applications may also may not work with the most recent iPods, so confirm compatbility with your iPod model.
    Regards.

  • TS3212 im trying to reinstall but will not allow, due to an error 7,  itunes helper not installed correctly,i have tried several times, but will not allow me to install, i have used itunes for years but now cant use it, can you help

    i have tried to reinstall itunes because it is saying i cant use my itunes due to an error 7, itunes helper not installed correctly, please reinstall, i have tried several times but still not allowing me to use, ive never had this problem before in all the years i have used itunes, i have gone through all the troubleshooting but still no access, can you help

    Many thanks.
    That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Hello.I wanted to upgrade my iPad 1 to iOS 5.1 Over the Air.I was running iOS 5.0.1.It said it had an error connecting to server.It is already 5 hours i cant install this update.I also have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1 with the same issues.Help please!

    Hello.I wanted to upgrade my iPad 1 to iOS 5.1 Over the Air.I was running iOS 5.0.1.It said it had an error connecting to server.It is already 5 hours i cant install this update.I also have an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1 with the same issues.Help please!

    You're probably running into the servers simply being swamped. Thousands of people are all going for the software update at the same time. Give it a try again and if that doesn't work, then try plugging it into your computer and trying it that way.
    I didn't get a notion of the size, it doesn't seem to be as big as the 700 meg 5.0 update, but it did take me 20+ minutes to download via cable internet so it's a large file. That in and of itself takes a while.
    If you're trying to download it directly to your iPhone, you'll need to be on wifi since I'm sure it's well over the 20 meg file size limit for 3G.
