I have an error code 80040154 when I try to download updates, why is this?

I am running Windows Vista 32 on HP Pavillion m8400f.  When I try to do a download, Windows installer gives me an error.  I am confused and very upset.  This has been going on for months now.
I went to Microsoft and followed their instructions to no avail.
Can you help me?

If you are able to help the user please do so. We  do have moderators here in the forum.  I seriously doubt that we are in need of  self appointed individuals (that would be you) who somehow feel they have the right to judge a response that someone else made. 
Why not  take the time toshow us that you know what you are talking about.  You can do that by actually helping resolve the original poster's thread instead of complaining.  If you thought my response was hostile, it makes me wonder what alternate universe you live in. 
Have a good day!

  • I keep getting error code 1450 when I try to download a music video.

    I keep getting error code 1450 when I try to download a music video. I've since downloaded other songs/videos, and I have the latest version of iTunes, so I don't think I need to uninstall itunes, but I can't download the video I bought.

    If you recently installed or updated disc burning software it may be conflicting with iTunes.
    Try taking a look at this Apple doc, some of the suggestions may take care of the problem -> iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting CD issues caused by device filters

  • Error code 1321 when I try to install update  in Windows 8.1

    I can find a solution for that error code on Adobe web site, however it only covers up to Win 7.  It says I need to update user permissions and I am not sure how to do it in Win 8.1 .
    Perhaps Adobe could add a "Update user privileges in  Win 8.1"  to the solution

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • I have an error code A12E1 when updating

    I have an error code A12E1 when updating

    Hi Derek, I've been a Creative Cloud subscriber since July 2013....I have been prompted by my Creative Cloud desktop manager to update 4X since August of this year. Each and every time I try and download and update I get the same error message: A12E1!
    I have downloaded other users fixes for this, I've tried and used other soluitons offered on Adobe's forums by their own reps, I've called Adbobe tech support on the phone on other occasions....and each time I'm assured that this problem is fixed. And each time, sadly, it is not. I use an iMac with OS X v10.7.5. In addition to waiting for hours for call backs or 50 minutes + for an agent to help me on-line I finally decided to no longer seek Adobe's technical assistance on this as it is now obvious that they are incapable, or unwilling to fix this problem. So.... here is my solution (and if you are on Windows, sorry I can't give you step by step...but the same general solution should still work). Again, these are MAC instructions:
    - Go to "Go" pull-down menu, top left menu bar on your desktop
    - Select "Computer"
    - Expand the folder called: "Applications"
    - Double-click the file called "Uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud"
    - Once done, do the following:
    - Open your browser and go to: www.creative.adobe.com
    - Then, log-in to your Creative Cloud account (have your username and password at hand)
    - Click on the "Creative Cloud" icon amongst all the other app icons in the Adobe creative suite
    - Follow prompts to do the download/install....once done you will have the latest version of Creative Cloud (inclusive of any updates that would have prompted your CC desktop manager to tell you to update).
    Uninstall and reinstall works everytime! It is unfortunate that this is what some of us have to do to update CC desktop manager. At least it takes far less time and far less aggravation than speaking with an Adobe rep and consuming hours of your valuable time while trying to meet crushing deadlines. Maybe one day Adobe will fix this in addition to the problems they recently had where hackers breached their servers and stole gobs of data about users, passwords and accounts.
    Adobe....if you are listening or monitoring this forum.....you really, really, really, need to fix this problem - you are the ones setting the expectations and offering this service. When a company can't meet the expectations they set you serve only to damage your brand!

  • I have error code 2330 when i tried to download itunes 10.5, how do I fix the problem?

    I have error code 2330 when I tried to download itunes 10.5. Different sites I have visited give different solutions and most seem to indicate removing the current itunes program then reinstalling the new 10.5. I did try to remove the program but it took a long time and I had to reboot the computer. Has anyone had the same issue and how did they fix the problem?

    I was having this problem with my wife's computer today so I did a Check Disk from the command prompt. (start/run then type chkdsk) let it do its thing then restart windows and it does some other BS on the start up. Relaunch itunes and then retry to download. I went to the apple website and click on the download and saved the file to my desk top then ran it from there. Let me know if you have the same luck. -Mike

  • Get error code 0x80070643 when I try to install Sql Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (KB2528583)

    I keep getting error code 0x80070643 when I try to install Sql Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (KB2528583)
    Operating System is Windows 2008 R2 64 bit

    Hi JamesRead,
    According to your description, when you install SQL Server 2008 R2 service pack 1, we need to verify if
    you must have administrative rights on the computer.
    There are multiple files available for the download, you will be prompted to select the files you need. We need to verify if you run the SQLServer2008R2SP1-KB2528583-x64-ENU.exe. Or you can install SQL server updates from the command
    prompt and check if it can install successfully.
    You can prepare an installation of database engine instance to include product update:
    setup.exe /q /IAcceptSQLServerLicenseTerms /ACTION=PrepareImage /UpdateEnabled=True /UpdateEnabled=True /UpdateSource=<path where the update is downloaded> /INSTANCEID=<Instance ID> /FEATURES=SQLEngine
    For more information, you can review the following article about installing Updates from the Command Prompt.

  • TS3694 Why am I getting error code 3194 when i try to restore my ipod?

    Why am I getting error code 3194 when I try to restore my ipod touch 4th generation

    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect.  For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.
    Error 3194: Resolve error 3194 by updating to the latest version of iTunes. "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in the updater logs confirms this is the root of the issue. For more Error 3194 steps see: This device is not eligible for the requested build above.
