I can't install any programs is their fix?

Hi
I would like to install a divx player however when I download it, it mounts just fin, however when I double click on the .mpkg it won't do anything. I know it has to be my computer because my friend has an iMac and can do it just fine. I don't know what I did to screw it up but I can't install anything on my computer and would like to be able to. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

That appears to be the Installer.
If it is happening with every installer file, please try it in Safe Mode as I suggested and report back.
It may be something related to the install of OS X. I'm not a huge fan of the whole USB installer thing as it seems to be flaky. Was that created from an installer downloaded for that Mac, or for a different one?
You may need to reinstall OS X from the Recovery HD: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718
I don't think this is related to Gatekeeper, but Gatekeeper can be temporarily bypassed by right-clicking on the installer file and choosing Open. If Gatekeeper is blocking it, it will present a small dialog asking if you are sure. You then click Open.

Can not install any program

I can't install any program in my mac OS X(10.6.3)
I didn't install any harmful program before or change any things in system.
I am new in mac and just use it for browsing internet.
I can not copy any thing in Application folder.
when I install program in installation step it's show me "The installation failed"
and under this, for example for Virtual Box write: "The installer can't create the folder "/var/folder/1G/1GlwO6PrF+u3......""
what can I do?

this message is for all app that i try to install.
What specific apps have you tried?
can you tell me how can i repaired permissions by using Disk Utility?
Open Disk Utility, select your hard drive in the list in Disk Utility's window, then click Repair Disk Permissions. And be aware that there are [permissions messages you can safely ignore|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448]. You also may want to [repair the hard drive with Disk Utility|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417] if you haven't done that recently. If it still doesn't work, try [starting up in Safe Mode|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455] and see if that makes any difference.
If none of this helps, you may want to try a local Apple Store, if there are any in Malaysia. I think there's going to be a serious language barrier if the problem needs any complicated troubleshooting, and it's always helpful for the person helping to be able to see the machine in question.

I get error 0x80073cf9 now and I need help to FIX Windows Store can't update any Apps & can't install any Apps now?

Hi I hope some one can tell me step by step how to fix windows 8.1, I can't update any of my Apps and can't install any new apps now and I get error code 0x80073cf9? But my problem is different than most of the other FIXES I read about, because nothing
fixes my problem to be able to install new Apps and get app updates and stop getting that error code?
I keep getting same error code 0x80073cf9 after I try any of the FIXES I have read about and tried all the fixes on my Lenovo Z580 laptop, that came with windows 8 and updated to 8.1. And ever since I bought this laptop I could
always install and update all my apps for the last year when I had Win 8 and Win 8.1 now.   This has been going on since April and May and its driving me crazy!    And from the May updates I did get all the updates and
I also installed the KB update that said I need this KB to get all updates in the future.
But all the other people when they get this error code they could not even open and use any of their Apps already installed. And they also get the error code when they try to update or get a new apps.
But I can click on any APP installed already and use all my Apps with no problems.   I have read so many how to fix this error code but nothing works! :-(     I have tried a lot of
the fixes on Microsoft forums that says do this and the fix will get rid of the error code but I keep getting the same error code after I try that fixes.   And I have read a lot of other windows 8 an windows 8.1 web sites when
I search for how to fix this error code?   And tried all of the fixes that were different from the Microsoft forum fixes. But after I try those fixes I still can't install any apps or can't get my app updates?
Please to any person's who can help me by giving me more that 1 fix, because I have tried so many fixes, If you know more that 1 fix tell me how to do your fix step by step so I can understand what you say to do to fix my windows store?
Thanks for any and all help? And if I don't get any help in this section of the forum I will try to put this in a different area, if I don't get any help at this section of the forum I will try to ask this in another part of he forum ok?
I really need HELP with this so I can get my laptop working again to install new apps and get the updates to my apps?

Fixed the problem by going to settings/store and logging out with apple ID. Then logged back in with password and updates, apps, and iTunes store seem to work ok now.

Can't install any OS on SSD - DV7-6030ew

Hello,
I have Kingston SSDNow V SNV125 64GB (~4 years old) which had been running fine in my PC BOX. I have recently bought new SSD and decided to put old SSD into my DV7-6030ew laptop. So I took out HDD from NB and replaced it with Kingston SSD.
The problem is that I can't install any OS on this SSD. I tried:
XP - after "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD" I got setup screen and after few seconds I got BSOD. I tried three different XP versions - always the same BSOD.
Win 7 - tried many times. System always installs successfully but then after random driver installation or Windows Update system doesn't boot. It freezes at windows splash screen or launches "System Recovery Options". I always install Intel Chipset driver and Intel MEI first. These two never killed the OS. OS gets killed later after GPU/Wi-Fi/Fingerprint/Other driver. Sometimes it happens that I setup all drivers but Windows Update kills OS. My last installation ended up with "IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" during boot and now every restart it freezes at splash screen. I tried installing Intel Rapid Storage but it doesn't help.
Win 8 with Update 1 - always installs successfully and almost always I'm able to setup all drivers (even through Windows Update). It always dies after Windows Update (random KBxxxxx).
Ubuntu Linux - Installed successfully. Right after desktop showed up I restarted it (I didn't change anything) and I got "no such partition" error during boot.
I have bought HP Sata cable replacement on EBay and put the old HDD into the second bay and connected it through this cable. So I have SSD in first bay connect with original HP cable and HDD in second bay connected with replacement cable. I have created two new 40GB partitions on HDD and setup two new Windows installation on this HDD. Both installed successfully. No problem with drivers, windows update etc. I tried copying one of these good installations from HDD partition to SSD using "Paragon migrate OS to SSD". It went well but during boot -> splash screen -> "System Recovery Options". I also tried to copy it through Paragon Partition Manager from Hiren's Boot CD but during boot I got this screen.
Unfortunately the SSD is old and there is no firmware upgrade for it. NB has the newest F.1B bios installed.
Why I can't install anything on this SSD? Please help.
Regards
Rychu

Hey @RychuPL ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're unable to use your SSD in your DV7 notebook.
Were both drives connected during the tests that you have run? If so please disconnect the secondary drive and test with only the SSD installed. It could be that the BIOS is picking up part of the Boot MGR from the original drive and attempting to boot from it in some way. Only thing that really makes sense to me at the moment.
Another "solution" (and I use the term very loosely in this case) is to install Windows 7 or 8 while offline and turn off the Windows updates to prevent the crash, or if it crashes after a specific update, to uninstall and block that specific update:
To do this follow these steps: (Windows 8)
1. Boot into safe mode: Windows Startup Settings (including safe mode)
2. Press Windows Key + X.
3. Click Programs and Features.
4. Click View Installed Updates on the left hand side.
5. Click on the Installed On heading to sort by date installed.
6. Click on the update that was recently installed.
7. Click Uninstall at the top.
8. After you've uninstalled the updates test the startup.
If it works, block the Windows updates that caused the issue: (Windows 8)
1. Press Windows Key + X.
2. Click Control Panel
3. Click System and Security.
4. Click Windows Update.
5. Click Check for updates to rescan for available updates.
6. Click on # important updates are available. Where # is the number of available updates.
7. Right click on the update and choose Hide update. If the update is not shown, click the Optional tab on the left.
If you use Windows 7 follow these steps to get into the update list:
1. Boot into safe mode: Start your computer in safe mode
2. Click Start.
3. Type Update in the search.
4. Click View installed updates.
5. Click on the Installed On heading to sort by date installed.
6. Click on the update that was recently installed.
7. Click Uninstall at the top.
8. After you've uninstalled the updates test the startup.
To block the updates in Windows 7:
1. Click Start.
2. Type Update in the search.
3. Click Windows Update.
4. Click Check for updates.
5. Click on # important updates are available. Where # is the number of available updates.
6. Right click on the update and choose Hide update. If the update is not shown, click the Optional tab on the left.
To be frank I really don't have any suggestions other than that considering you've tried multiple operating systems with identical results.
Hopefully removing the HDD allows the SSD to work. In which case formatting the drive or running KillDisk would be the best option.
Hopefully that helps!
Please click the "Kudos, Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post if you want to say "Thanks" for helping!

Can you install a program...

Can you install a program, like the sims 2, to an external hard drive?
Sorry is this has been asked a million times
iMac G5 (without iSight) Mac OS X (10.3.9) Goldfrapp Fan

Hello,
Yes, if your internal hard drive's space is limited / low, then installing on an external hard drive is a perfectly fine option.
Keep AxL's comments in mind.
And, also consider that it will probably run a little slower from the external drive. To keep performance up, you should at least use a FireWire 400 drive and get one that spins at 7200 R.P.M.
If you use a USB 2.0 drive, you will definitely be complaining about performance while using the program.
And, most updaters are available for download, and usually ask you which drive / program location to install them to. So, that probably won't be a problem. It's a consideration. But, probably not a huge issue.
I hope this helps.
Let us know if you have other questions.

I just upgraded to 10.7.3 and now I can't install any applications.

I just upgraded to 10.7.3 and now I can't install any applications. Everything else in the OS and in applications seems to work OK. After the installers ask for the system password, they do nothing. I doesn't hang; it just won't proceed any further in the install process. I can press the back button and it seems to do that just fine. I repaired the disk permissions, but to no avail.
After I installed 10.7.3, I tried to install an updater that was listed as being recommended for Time Machine users. That was the first time I tried to launch an installer of any sort and it did the same as above. I've gathered since then that the update wasn't necessary and was already included in the 10.7.3 I loaded today.
Any hints?

I'm having a similar problem after installing 10.7.3 and the Messages beta. I've unistalled Mesages with little bit of trouble.. Linc, I followed the step given in your final post any help would be appreciated.
A screenshot of my actual error. I get this error not just for Flash, but also Handbrake. I receieve th error even when I try using a programs automatic update. However, not suprisingly I do not get the message when using Apple's software update.

I can't install any dmg files

I can't install any dmg files and I can't find CoreService nor DiskImageMounter under Library order neither. I think they're missing.
Please Help.

They should come up when you double click on the DMG file.
If you are getting a terminal windows when you double click on a DMG file then something has switched the Default program from Installer.app and or DiskImageMounter.app to terminal.
Right click on the DMG and select Get Info. In the windows that comes up find the Open with section then select DiskImageMounter.app and click Change All.
Both DiskImageMounter.app and Installer.app are in /System/Library/CoreServices. But that folder may be hidden. So you will need to use the Go Menu item "Go to Folder" and type in what I posted above to find it.

I can't install the program I just purchased: Acrobat XI Standard

I can't install the program I just purchased: Acrobat XI Standard. When I bring up the installer, it does nothing.

Hi Mountain Matt,
Please make sure that you're logged in as an administrator, and that any antivirus software on your system is disabled. Then, trying downloading Acrobat from Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X, and run the installer.
Please let us know how it goes. If you're still having trouble and need additional help, it will be very helpful to know what version of Windows you're using.
Best,

Can't Open Any Programs

I had been on Safari for awhile and had to leave the computer for about 10 minutes. When I came back the mouse is responsive, but nothing else is. I can't shut down any program or the computer. I did a forced shut down, and it starts back up just fine but now I can't open any program. The mouse moves around the screen but nothing else seems responsive. After 5 minutes, my screen saver comes on like normal.

Hi
what OS are you on - Leopard, Snow Leopard ?
I suggest booting from the install dvd, repairing permissions (just in case) using Disk Utility from the dvd and using the 'repair disk' function too.
You might also see what starting in Safe mode does for you - hold the Shift key on startup

Can't open any programs after start up

after logging in i can't open any programs, when i click on somthing it acts like its going to load but never does, a couple of times it ask me to power off and then turn it back on with the same results. Please HELP!!!

You haven't provided us any usefuly information such as what machine you have or the verison of OS X it has installed. PLEASE complete your profile! It's simple to do, click Your Stuff in the upper right of this page then click Profile and complete as needed.

After installed Leopard, can't install any other software....help

I just installed Leopard 10.5 into my Powerbook G4 17" 1.5Gz, but after that I can't install any other software, I try CS3 upgrade, new Poser7 and apple 10.5.1 upgrade, after I click install....nothing happen..... just the spining color wheel, try few time and wait for an hour... still the same, need help!

In your utilities folder, in applications there's a program called disk utilities app. Go in there and click on your hard drive and click on disk permissions, first aid should also be highlighted. Post back if you require additional information. Good luck, and don't worry this is fixable.
