INSTALL_ERROR_DISTRIBUTION_SIGNED_BY_APPLE installing anything
Hey all,
I'm getting an INSTALL_ERROR_DISTRIBUTION_SIGNED_BY_APPLE error when I try to install or update anything using the Mac App Store. My system time is correct and I've tried repairing permissions as someone else suggested but it's not working.
Any one got any other ideas?

When I try to download applications such as Internet Explorer, Yugma, and iTunes in Firefox, I just get a window that says "save" or "cancel", but never one that says "run" so I don't think it's actually installing anything. It shows up in a "download" window, then the icon shows up on my desktop. When I click on it to launch it, it says "open with" and I get the same "save/cancel" window. It's a continuous circle. What am I doing wrong??
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I don't know. I never downloaded apps through Firefox until all of a sudden Internet Explorer didn't work. ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)What application are you choosing to open the files with?
Because of how integrated it is with windows IE should work. If it's not working, something more widespread could be wrong with your computer that would also prevent other browsers from working properly. Of course we'd love you to stick with Firefox, but you should get help with IE, too. -
Hello, I need help with my macbook pro.
It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, I simply get stuck during the installation type process. I put in my password, it does accept it, but it does not go any further.
I tried to reset the password, put no password, repair the permissions, the disk but nothing will do. I nearly got stuck with the log in screen but finally succeeded in disabling it.
So I thought I might try to create a new account but I cannot click the lock to make changes. It simply refuses to react.
I am now thinking about using the migration assistant to save all my settings, data and so fourth, but again I get stuck when I have to type in my password. It accepts it but nothing happens...
I guess it has something to do with the authorization process, but can't find anything on the internet about it... Can you help me out?
I am running Lion 10.7.3.
Regards,
Nicolas.
(I apologize if any grammatical/structural mistakes were to be found, english is not my mother-tongue. )You probably won't like this suggestion, but I suggest you reinstall Lion.
First, backup your system. Next, reboot your system, press/hold the COMMAND-R keys to boot into the Recovery HD. Select 'Reinstall Mac OS X'. If you purchased Lion as an upgrade to Snow Leopard, the reinstall process will install Lion 10.7.3. If your system came preinstalled with Lion, you might still get Lion 10.7.2. Both installs are a total install of the OS. None of your apps or data will be impacted. Just the OS. -
Is there a special way to install CC? I haven't been able to install anything.
I've been trying to install anything in the CC. First I started trying to install the CC application manager. It has an error early on but the sequence continues. Finally it displays that it failed to install. What am I doing wrong? I'm frustrated.
Hi kimmessmer,
You can rename the OOBE folder and then install 'Adobe creative cloud' it should work.
Location of OOBE folder
In Windows
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
and
C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
In Mac
Macintosh Hd --->Computer --->Library ----> Application support ---> Adobe ----> OOBE
Rename OOBE to OOBE.old, then open www.creative.adobe.com and login with your Adobe Id on which you have the subscription.
Under the tab 'Download Center' you will find an application 'Adobe Creative Cloud'
install that app in your machine and then you will be able to install all the creative cloud applications.
Thanks

An unexpected error occured(error code-10814)'. PLEASE HELP!
I have this exact problem.
When I update or download anything it will download fine and then when I go to run or install it this comes up -
'There is no default application specified to open the document"install iTunes".Than it gives me the option to 'choose Application' but i have no idea what to choose and anything i do click on just pop up this message 'The operation could not be complete. An unexpected error occured(error code-10814)'
My software update is also not finding updates (on quicktime or itunes or anything) so my itunes does not recognize my iPhone and I cannot sync anything even though itunes (for example) asks to update.
So I cannot install anything new (like Spotify) and cannot update anything (like itunes).
Please let me know if you can help -
On my new macbook pro (15-inch retina, OS X Mavericks), I can't install anything.
I recently got a new macbook pro with os x mavericks. Everything works perfectly, except that whenever I try to install anything from the internet (Adobe Flash Player), it tells me that the package is damaged and I should eject the disk image file. Any .dmg's I open show the same error message.
RajatTyagi,
the most common cause of that message is an incomplete download. For example, try downloading the standalone Flash Player installer from here. If it doesn’t run on your MacBook Pro, what size is the downloaded disk image file? -
CJS-20003 Error Message when installing anything on the portal
Hi there,
whenever I try to install anything on my EP6SP8, I get this nasty error message.
CJS-20003 While adding instance G00: An instance already exists with that number and a different name or SID: PEP/DVEBMGS00.
So far I tried to install EP6SP9, EP6SP11, JAVA WAS SP 11, I uninstalled TREX and tried to install TREX 6.1 again --> always comes this error.
What is wrong here?
Your help is really appreciated and will surely be rewarded (at least with points).
Greetings from Switzerland,
Ingolf DrespSmall steps first...
The installer you use MUST come with the media you wish to install. With patches you get a sapinst along with the patch (for Web AS, EP, and TREX certainly). FOr instance with Web AS you get 4 sar files - these combine to form the whole patch kit. You cannot just take one part of the kit and use it with an existing sapinst you already have on your system.
If you are using install media and choose "Default" for your settings you likely get this as Default settings are usefull only for the first install, after that you need to use the gui to pick your system numbers so you do not have conflicts.

Please help! We got a used Mac Mini and we don't have the former owner's password, so we can't install anything like flash player. Does anyone know how to get around this? I don't know how to wipe the hard drive, and the support online doesn't seem to work.
As posted previously:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
If installing Leopard the process is similar in some respects. If you wish to begin anew then after selecting the target disk click on the Options button and select the Erase and Install option then click on the OK button. To install over an existing system do the following:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update. -

I can't get Safari to load period. It quits immediately. According to the troubleshooting, I'm to un-install any third party plug ins. Can anyone tell me what I should be looking for? I don't recall installing anything that wasn't an upgrade.
Unplug your iBook from the AC power, shut it down and take the main battery out for about fifteen minutes. Then you can put the battery back in, plug the power back in and restart. This should reset the USB and FireWire ports.
If that doesn't help, you could reset the Power Management Unit. Follow the instructions in Knowledge Base Article #14449 for resetting your PMU.
You probably should also startup from your Mac OS X install disk and run the Disk Utility to "repair disk" on your hard drive. This will determine if you've got some kind of file directory/software problems with the files on your hard drive.

Did you have a DVD movie in the drive at the time? DVD movie disks are UDF format, but not much else is.

How do I install InDesign CC when the app overview says "up to date" even though I haven´t installed anything yet?
It sounds like maybe you installed a trial at some point in the past and trashed the application folder rather than doing an uninstall?
Have you tried the cleaner tool:

Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
