HT1338 Itunes 11 & Mac OS X 10.7 downloaded, but won't install. I get message "folder cannot be created"

I've downloaded updates for iTunes & Mac OS X 10.7. But they won't install.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
The latest iTunes version is 11.0.1 version. 11.0.2 does not exist. Have you tried opening Apple menu > Software Update and install iTunes 11.0.1? If it doesn't show up, you have already iTunes 11.0.1

Mac OS X update downloads but won't install

When I try to update Mac OS X combined update 10.7.4 on MBP, it downloads but won't install. I get a message that says it couldn't expand and may be corrupted. This has happened multiple times now.
I thought it might be due to lack of space on the hard drive so i cleared some space (there's now at least 49GB space) and it still won't work. I also have updates for Motion Supplemental Control and Final Cut Pro X supplemental that do the same. Tried doing it one by one, and tried downloading myself but the problem seems to be the expanding installing not the downloading.
Anyone else had this problem and solved it??

You may have a permissions issue that's preventing access to the downloaded files.
Open Disk Utility from the Utilities and click the "Repair Disk Permissions" option.
Once complete, try installing the update again.

Means the DL is corrupt and you need to try again. If from the MAS, try from http://support.apple.com/downloads/

Downloaded but can't install - keep getting an error message because I never upgraded Keynote to 9.0, just pages and numbers

Downloads but can't install the upgrade because I never upgraded Keynote, just Keynote and Numbers so I keep getting the error message about Keynote, which I don't use. I just want to upgrade Pages and Numbers.

If you purchased Pages and Numbers from the MAS:
Dock > App Store > Updates (top bar of window) > click update next to the applications

Skype version 4.6 downloaded but won't install on my iPhone 5

Skype version 4.6 has downloaded, but will not install. How do I fix that?

It was an update notification that I accepted for download. It dowloaded, but it is stuck on"installing"

ITunes downloads, but won't install

I have recently been having issues with iTunes unexpectedly shutting down when I go to play certain videos. My first solution was to reinstall iTunes. I am able to download the iTunes install package, and I am able to navigate through most of the installation process, except for the actual installation. On the screen where you select to install, it has iTunes grayed out with "Skip" under the Action column. What am I doing wrong, or how should I resolve this?

If you installed the same software before, then re-installing is prevented by a 'receipt'.
Remove the 'iTunesX.pkg' file from ~/Library/Receipts and try installing again.
Hope this helps.

Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update
Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 5
To me, in all such updates, goes without saying maybe: backup, repair permissions, repair your drive (Disk Warrior does more reliable and thorough job, and it comes out to pennies if you don't wait until needed). Clone your system so you can restore or use the backup - just in case.
I'd even do a fresh format after your clone is done and do a full OS clean install and update, and then a quick import from Setup Assistant.
Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
iTunes 10.2 or later recommended
(free download from www.itunes.com/download)
iTunes Store account
Internet access
I'm going to assume there is something with the partitions on the drive, partition table most likely, though I know I've seen others with that error message - doesn't really point to cause, rarely does (make sure latest firmware update etc is sometimes included but again, we know that isn't why).

Acrobat 9.0 Pro and Office 2008 updates download but won't install

I hope I'm not alone experiencing the following difficulties installing third party patches and updates and that someone who reads this may recognize the problem…and its solution. I've run Adobe Updater (6?) for CS4 Design Standard which includes Acrobat 9.0 Professional, and subsequently, Microsoft Autoupdate for Office 2008 v12.0.1, but find that neither will install the downloaded updates which disappear immediately after an (unsuccessful) installation attempt.
Disk space is not a problem (500GB HD) nor is memory (4GB RAM); I'm using OS 10.6.4 (10F569) which is the most current set of OS updates I can locate. I had successfully been running CS4 with Adobe's most recent patches (e.g. P'Shop 11.0.2 and Acrobat 9.3.3) until the 9.3.4 patch failed to install with the message that +"Safari and Acrobat apps must be closed in order to proceed"+—they were closed as was everything else that wasn't essential according to a check of the Acitivity Window. A grab of the alert panel reads:
+"AcroProUPd934_all Update Failed: The Patch has failed because the application has been modified since it was originally installed (for example, plug-ins may have been disabled). Please go to the Adobe support website for more information regarding how to re-enable disabled components prior to installing the patch, or you can uninstall and reinstall the application, and then reinstall the patch."+
Of course, uninstalling CS4 and reinstalling the entire suite of apps reverts all of them to their original versions, now none of them will accept an update…whether manually downloaded and fed to it or by using Adobe's most recent AutoUpdater. The most consistent message is an alert panel stating that in order to continue, Safari and Acrobat applications must be closed—which they are.
Not surprisingly, after nearly 8 hours on a cell phone with Adobe Tech Support in Delhi, 5 different techs and a manager, the case remains open a week later; it seems +"no one has ever seen or heard of this problem before"+ and an overly apologetic manager could only repeat +"it's [Adobe] policy to remove all copies of CS4 from existence once CS5 is introduced."+ While we waited for 500MB of updates to download more than once, a helpful tech suggested I'd have more luck finding a used copy of CS4 on the net than getting a link to another download from Adobe.
With regard to Microsoft Office 2008, I'd been running v12.0.1 and the MS Autoupdate app has tried to download and install v12.1.0 (and those which follow) but when installation is attempted, an alert panel reads:
+"There is a problem with the Office database. Office might be unable to access the data base or the database file might be damaged. Without the database, you might be unable to use the Address Book, Scrapbook, and other features that store your personal information. To rebuild the database, Open Microsoft Office 2008/Office, and then open the Microsoft Database Utility. For more information, open the Database Utility application, and on the Help menu, click Database Utility Help."+
All attempts to rebuild the database fail, noting…
+ERROR: Failed to open database [Head]+
+ERROR: Corruption opening database [16003:""]+
======================
+Scan Ended+
====================
Two hours on the phone with a relentlessly pleasant Nova Scotian tech for Microsoft revealed little but the suggestion that +"the app doesn't seem to be able to recognize your hard drive. I've never seen this problem before."+
With luck, perhaps someone reading this far recognizes the issue and can offer a solution? It will be gratefully received! Thanks,
David

Disk space is not a problem (500GB HD)
How much space is available out of the 500GB?
Have you tried any of the following:
Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run _*Repair Disk*_ from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select *Disk Utility.*
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click *First Aid.*
Click _*Repair Disk.*_
Restart your computer when done.
Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 and try the installations again.

Logic Pro X additional content will download but won't install

Hi,
I have Logic Pro X (10.0.1) installed on my 2012 Macbook Pro i7 2.6Ghz 8Gb Ram. I am able download the addition content but now just hangs & it has only installed the producer patches, surrond reverbs, garage band 11 sounds & instruments & the jam packs which I believe were there from my Logic Pro 9.
I have read support forum threads where peiople have downloaded it in smaller sections 1 or 2GB at a time with success, I have tried this & in smaller sections with no success.....it just still hangs saying "installing Orchestra" or whatever section I'm trying to install.
Can anyone help?
I went through **** to install the program itself as the initial installion just hung too on the "Essential Sounds and Instruments for Logic Pro & Mainstage", I finally installed after getting the content download link from a support thread.
Apple support is s***, I emailed about them about the download (after spending my £139.99) only to wait 24 hours for them to say delete it & try again (like we wouldn't have though of & done that already). After repling to say that & waiting another 24 hours they said here is an email address to our Tech support or a premium number to call WFT!!!!
Now the additional content won't install, between my Macbook Pro & Logic Pro X the money I've spent - Apple are taking the ****.
Please can some one help?
Thanks

Install on my Core2Duo 17" MacBook Pro went flawlessly, but install on my 8 Core Mac Pro suffered this problem. Many thanks for the solution Don, it worked for me ;-)
I am trying hard to supress an ironic chuckle though, reading other posts in this thread .... suggesting that people should call Apple Tech Support and expressing incredulity that people weren't doing this as their first option.
Well I can say say that after several calls to Apple Tech Support, amounting to several hours on the phone, and well over an hour on the phone with them today, I was informed that this problem is a known bug, and that Apple are working on a solution. They couldn't tell me what the bug is, what machines are affected, or what else might trigger it, or when a bug release might be due.
Their troubleshooting steps basically involved various reboots, repairing disc permissions, reseting the user home directory via terminal, booting up in recovery mode (but not safe mode as per this solution) trashing various preferences files, and, as a final step, uninstalling and reinstalling from scratch.
Only when all that failed was I told that there is a known bug that Apple are working on.
I came here to see what the community was saying, as the Tech Support guy did say there was likely to be some info on the forums. Lo and behold, a solution is posted and it works.
Why are Apple's Tech Support (in the UK at least) not aware of this?
Oh well, at least I'm up and running on my Mac Pro now.
Thanks again Don,
Cheers,
Nigel

Still trying to install iOS 5.1.1. before upgrading to iOS 6. It's downloaded but won't install. Message: "An error occurred installing iOS 5.1.1" but no further message.

Ever since iOS 5.1.1 came out, I have been trying to install it to my iPad 2. It is downloaded but I get the "Unable to Install Update" screen which says, "An error occurred installing iOS 5.1.1" but no other information is provided. Do I have to do a complete restore to get this to install?

For your next step I would recommend you review your installation logs to determine the cause of the failure. You can find details on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.
