Install Intercompany conflict with BOBJ ENT XI 3.1

Dear Gurus,
        First, I installed BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 and then BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 Integration for SAP successfully.
        Second, I installed BusinessObjects Financial Consolidation 7.5 and its BOFC Service Pack 5 successfully.
        Third, I installed BusinessObject Data Service XI 3.2 and BusinessObject RapidMarts for HR & AP successfully.
        Last, I try to install BusinessObjects Intercompany 7.5 on the same machine but I found this error "BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.0 is detected. Crystal Reports Server Embedded 2008 is not allowed to install." during install prerequisite software of BOBJ IC 7.5, Crystal Reports Server Embedded 2008.
        Can I install BOBJ IC 7.5 with BOBJ ENT XI 3.1 on the same machine?
        Do you have recommend about correct system landscape for BusinessObjects Products?
Best regards,
Choosak B.

Hello
I tried with 5.1 and its worked.
I dont know about 7.5.
But, I think you can install it. This error normally ocurrs.

Installing Cisco E3000, conflict with Network Magic

I have replaced, for security reasons, my old Belkin with the Cisco E3000. The installation disk runs and then says will not configure router. I tried Cisco Router chat but they say it is a Network Magic problem, because the software in the install disk conflicts with Network Magic. I have checked my firewall (Sunbelt's Vipre) and did not see any problem. I am running XP SP3. I also uninstalled all the Belkin entries I can find, rebooted, and still it would not install. Somewhere, in Network Magic, has to be the process in which I need.
Information to help in diagnosis:
Network Magic version 5.5.9195.0-Pure0
Cable Connection
Cable modem is a Motorola, SB 5100
Router I am trying to install: Cisco E3000. Since it won't setup, I can't give you any info
Router Connection: Wired
Ethernet port is a PCI Card
Windows XP SP 3 with all updates
Firewall from Sunbelt software, the Vipre product versions 4.0.3904, updated 30 minutes ago
Vipre also applies to the Anti-Virus
My physical locating is Western PA, USA
I was able, with the router setting up, connect to the internet simply by plugging in the router to the modem and then PC. Plugging in the router to the cable modem was part of the setup procedure. Connecting to the PC was something I did via Network Magic. This did not set up the router.

How can I install an extension when it conflicts with an existing one that doesn't appear in the list of extensions?

I'm trying to install Guide Guide for Photoshop CS 2014 using the Adobe Extension Manager CC but when clicking on the 3.1.2-guideguide.zxp I recieve the following error, "This extension cannot be installed, since it conflicts with a existing one. To install this extension, please remove the extension 'GuideGuide' which has been installed in ", then install again." Note that there is some code breaking in there where ", is. When I open Adobe Extension Manager CC there are no extensions listed. None under any of the products to the left. I can't uninstall it if it's not listed.
After reviewing the forums I have gone into my %appdata%\Roaming\Adobe\ folder and removed all folders for previous versions of Adobe Extension Manager.
Any help with this issue would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Please delete "C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CC\Configuration\DB\ExMan.db" then retry. Note that "C:\ProgramData" is hidden by default. You can input C:\ProgramData in the address bar of Windows Explorer then press "Enter" key to go into this folder.

MAC Adobe Illustrator CS3 cannot be installed because it conflicts with Adobe Illustrator CS3

Model Name:iMac / Processor Name:Intel Core 2 Duo / Memory:4 GB
When I installed Illustrator CS3 at the first time, I didn't complete it and closed it. While I installed it again, it said "Adobe Illustrator CS3 cannot be installed because it conflicts with Adobe Illustrator CS3". I was be stopped on this step, so I deleted the Illustrator CS3 from Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers without clicking it to uninstall. And I deleted other Illustrator CS3 files. After that, I tried to reinstall Illustrator CS3 again, but it kept to say "Adobe Illustrator CS3 cannot be installed because it conflicts with Adobe Illustrator CS3".
I cannot find any Illustrator in my MAC. What is wrong? How can I install Illustrator again? Should I format the computer and install all the applications again?

On the Adobe site probably under support do a search for Adobe CS 3 Clean Up Script.
Before running the script read the instructions al the instructions first, do not assume you understand from reading the first sentence. There are some files that are not so obvious that are necessary for activation and they are probably still around but they can only be removed by the script.
Next time you will have to read the instructions.
The only other ways around this is the do an archival reinstall of your system or if that does not work a complete reinstall of your system. Running the script is the easier and better way to do this but you must read the instructions completely first.

Error. This extension cannot be installed, since it conflicts with an existing one. To install this extension, please remove the extension 'GuideGuide' which has been installed in", then install again.

When I try to install GuideGuide extension this error message popups " This extension cannot be installed, since it conflicts with an existing one. To install this extension, please remove the extension 'GuideGuide' which has been installed in", then install again."
Photoshop CC

Hi,
Have you ever uninstalled Photoshop CC and installed Photoshop CC 2014, or uninstalled Photoshop CC 2014 then installed Photoshop CC?
If that, please re-install you uninstalled Photoshop, and remove GuideGuide from Extension Manager before uninstall.
Another option is remove extension manager database file, then launch Extension Manager to install it.
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CC\Configuration\DB\ExMan.db (Windows)
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CC/Configuration/DB/ExMan.db (MAC)
But please notice that all your previously installed extensions will not be shown in Extension Manager after you removed database file.

Indesign can't install because of conflict with InDesign

When trying to install trial version of Indesign CS3, I get an error message that states...Adobe InDesign CS3 cannot be installed because of a conflict with Abobe InDesign CS3...
I have run search and can not find any instance of "Adobe InDesign CS3" on the computer. Suggestions? HELP?

Try calling Adobe tech support. I'm not certain what the policy is on supporting installation of trial versions, but it can't hurt, and if they'll talk to you they should do it no charge.
If not, the best I can recommend is to run MSconfig and turn off all non-Microsoft services and all non-essential startup group items, and to make sure any firewall is disabled and no virus scanners are running before trying to install.
Other things known to conflict are iTunes, instant messengers, browser toolbars, and flash player (for which you'll find removal instructions at http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=1).
The only other major hurdle I can think of is that some new systems don't have jscript.dll properly registered. To do that, go to the start menu and select RUN, then type (without the quotes) "regsvr32 jscript.dll" and click OK. You should see a message that it was registered successfully, and doing it again won't hurt anything.

Cannot instal xorg files - Conflict with another program.

I have a new install and set up my wireless, got pacman working good but there are a couple things that are not working. 1-cannot install powerpill, it just does not find it when i try to download it. 2 when I try to download xorg files it says there is a conflict with another program (not near my comp right now so i dont have the name of the program, i will post it later). I am more worried about getting xorg set up than powerpill. does anyone have any ideas? i am set up for fastest mirror and ran the pacman -Syu to update everything yesterday...

I am trying to install everything under xorg that comes up when you type pacman -S xorg. the error itself says that it conflicts with another program when i try to download it. it says do i want to remove program "x" but does both options still will not download. I will get the full info tonight.

Cannot install xorg Get error about a conflict with e2fsprogs?

IIRC, I got this error message:
:: util-linux-ng conflicts with e2fsprogs. Remove e2fsprogs? [Y/n] y
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
And this message, too:
cryptsetup: requires e2fsprogs
I'm stuck.
Looks like I'm gonna reformat again!

not really, just do pacman -Syu
Fixed it, for some reason, pacman didn't do a full update. Was wondering why I didn't see much being updated.
Syu did the trick.

Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?

I'm using Firefox 3.6.8 (and sometimes IE 8.0.6001.18702IC) on Windows XP Pro, SP 3.
For some weeks now, I have been unable to hear any sounds on anything Flash-based, from YouTube to games at MSN.com or embedded videos on any site using Flash. Initially I had assumed it to be because of having QuickTime installed because I know QT likes to hijack everything. I uninstalled QT (and Real Player) and Flash Player then reinstalled Flash Player (and Shockwave Player just in case) and guess what?
Yup. Nothing. When I uninstalled everything, I used a program called Revo Uninstaller, which includes a registry cleaning option. I then used Abexo and WinASO's registry cleaners to make sure I got everything else that even looked like QuickTime off my hard drive.
When I reinstalled Flash, the following programs appeared in C:\Windows\system 32\Macromed\Flash:
Flash 10i.ocx (10.1.82.76)
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX (10.1.82.76)
FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.82.76)
genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll (10.1.82.76)
NPSWF32.dll (10.1.82.76)
KB931433
FlashInstall
Install
Flashplayer.xpt
When I check IE's "Tools" and look for add-ons, it says that Flash (Shockwave Flash) is enabled. I even enabled the other Adobe add-ons for Acrobat and such just to be sure. Firefox shows Shockwave Flash and Shockwave for Director both to be enabled. The Flash control panel settings don't help: I have all sites set to store about 100 KB on my computer to make sure there's enough room for everything but still nothing.
Before anyone asks, my audio drivers are up to date, thanks to the manufacturer's website. I have DirectX 9.0c installed and everything else works fine. I can play audio and video elsewhere with no problems. It's only Flash that's showing me this trouble and there's no hint as to what else could be interfering with Flash.
Any ideas?

Well, great. I tried the uninstall/reinstall before, but not with the uninstaller, so I was hopeful that this time might do it. No such luck. The video still plays, but no sound.
All the sound settings are working with everything else from games to media players. I set Windows' firewall to allow both the ActiveX and plugin for Flash, just in case.
In the Flash folder, I now have:
Flash10l.ocx (10.1.102.64)
Flash Util10l_ActiveX (10.1.102.64)
FlashUtil10l_Plugin (10.1.102.64)
Genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll (10.1.102.64)
NPSWF32.dll (10.1.102.64)
And the setup and text files that went with 'em.
I've also done a system restart since then and zip.
I went through IE and Firefox and looked for any file associations (like .flv) that I could manually change over to using Flash, but no go. The settings panels for Flash have all been set to allow YouTube specifically (as a test) and to allow 10KB of storage space for all affected sites.
Now what? I'm really not looking forward to a reformat and reinstall, but it's looking like that's what it's going to take.

Subject: Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?
Something is strange with your list of modules; you list FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.102.64), but this is really 10.1.85.3
I recommend that you uninstall Flash Player completely (using http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html), then restart Windows, and delete all remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash.
Next reinstall both ActiveX (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and the plugin (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe).

Star with BOBJ

Hi guys, my company just bought BOBJ license. Our bosses still don't know for what exactly it'll be used, nor when it'll be used. I'd like to start looking through this stuff since in our company nobody has experience with BOBJ and it's obvious that some day we'll have to use it and I also would like to have. May be it'll be the third party company that would give us a workshop or something, but i don't want to wait.
My question is where should I start, what are the core BOBJ tools that will be definitely used in by a SAP BI consultant in the future (we have a SAP BW system for warehousing)
In one question, where to start and what should be the thing I'd have to learn?
Thanx a lot

Hi,
"I installed the Businesosobjects X3.1 and i can't seem to find Crystal Report nor Dashboard Builder or Xcelsius?"
BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 is a report design and distribution platform. It is comprised of:
- Client side (Windows) product
- Server side components
- Third-Party integration-enabled options
Crystal Reports Designer 2008 is a Windows product. You need it's installation media and a valid license key to install in on machines that will be used to build and publish Crystal Reports.
Dashboard Builder is present/embedded in BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 but you need:
1. "Seperate" Dashboard Builder license key
2. Setup its seperate repository
Xcelsius Designer 2008 is again a Windows product. You need it's installation media and a valid license key to install in on machines that will be used to build and publish Flash (.SWF) dashboards.
Since you are from SAP background, I presume your reporting and data visualization needs are on SAP data sources. For this to happen, you need to install "BusinessObjects Integration Kit For SAP XI 3.1" client-server specific components on top of BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 platform.
Additionally, you may want to take a look here

Firefox 25.0.1 Warn when closing multiple tabs (on) conflicts with "show windows und tabs from last time" (on); need both, but only one or the other works.

Using Firefox 25.0.1 on Windows 7 Home Premium
I've poured through support forums for Mozilla Firefox searching for a fix to my initial problem of the "Warn when closing multiple tabs" pop up not popping up when I have it selected.
Went through About:Config, making sure warnings for tabs und closing, und showing on quit, und quitting, etc. were all set to true, which were "possible" fixes for the issue I was having, there are like five or six things set to true for warnings/quitting/etc. No avail. They are all set to true.
Then I stumbled across one that suggested a conflict with the "Warn When Closing Multiple Tabs" und the "Show Windows und Tabs from last time".
I use both features. However, I found if I want the warning pop up for closing multiple tabs, I have to have "show homepage" or "show blank page" selected instead of "Show windows und tabs from last time" selected. (Tools>Options>General>Start Up>When Firefox Starts:) The problem with this is, yes, I get my warning pop up, BUT, I don't get my tabs from my last session.
The warning in settings (Tools>Options>Tabs>Warn Me When Closing Multiple Tabs) is checked.
To have my tabs restored from last session, I simply select it for "when firefox starts". Bam, I have my tabs that were open from the last time I quit. Und again, full circle, I don't have my warning pop up.
There were also suggestions of the warning on close for tabs is conflicting with add-ons.
However, I don't have many. Und I have yet to test them to see if they interfere. These are according to my Add Ons tab when I check it myself.
Extensions:
1. Avast WebRep (disabled)
2. HP Smart Web Printing (disabled)
Plugins:
1. Adobe Acrobat
2. Google Update
3. iTunes Application Detector
4. Java (TM) Platform SE 7 U45
5. Shockwave Flash
6. Shockwave For Director
7. Silverlight Plug-In
8. VLC Web Plugin
9. Windows Live Photo Gallery
10. Java Deployment Toolkit (disabled)
Note: The Details Firefox provides says I have these for Plugins
* Shockwave Flash 11.9 r900
* Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.0.5.146
* Next Generation Java Plug-in 10.45.2 for Mozilla browsers
* Google Update
* Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 11.0.05
* VLC media player Web Plugin 2.1.0
* 5.1.20913.0
* iTunes Detector Plug-in
* NPWLPG
Unsure of what the "5.1.20913.0" und the "NPWLPG" plugins are, but they don't appear to me under Add Ons.
Und as usual, I'm assuming the solution lies within About:Config, I will show here now what I have set to True.
browser.tabs.warnOnClose - True
browser.tabs.warnOnCloseOtherTabs - True
browser.tabs.warnOnOpen - True
browser.warnOnQuit - True
browser.showQuitWarning - True
As aforementioned:
The seemingly only issue is the conflict between Show Windows/Tabs From Last Time und the Warn On Quit pop up. Und again, I need/want both of them. More so the tabs from the last session, but I really really really really really want the warning.
So, if anyone knows a work around, preferably without having to download anything to fix this, I would be extremely grateful.

You mention a second subject.
''I'm probably going to downgrade to another version of firefox that was suggested to me since I'm also having issues with shockwave flash causing firefox to hang und ultimately needs to be force closed otherwise having to have flash disabled to use firefox.''
Downgrading Firefox 
Flash is notorious for causing Firefox problems. I suggest you start a new thread about that. If at all possible you should try to avoid downgrading to an unsecure & unsupported version of Firefox. it will increase risks to your system and Personal data. (There are methods of mitigating the risks, using a virtual machine or operating within a secure intranet for instance)
*(Do Not) [[Install an older version of Firefox]]
Try Flash with Protected Mode Off 
Worth a try as it takes minimal effort & often solves Flash Problems whilst allowing current and more secure FlashPlayer to be used. See
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Flash_Player_11.3_Protected_Mode_-_Windows
* http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071#TemporaryWorkaround
If you wish to pursue these subjects further I note you have already started a thread you may as well continue the discussion in that thread, but also post back here so we can follow both.

I sometimes wonder if users are not trying to use that, or whether forum users run into problems in using it. At one point I wondered whether there was a problem if too much data was included but never actually proved that conjecture.

Do I have a conflict with iTunes 7.6.2 . . or what ?

Dunno if I do or not, but . . shortly after upgrading to iTunes 7.6.2 we suffered a power "Blink" . . and when i noticed it had happened the Mac was attempting to restart . . with a blinking Mac, then a question mark in the icon . . nothing else . . In the past I've seen it once before, and a shutdown and restart was all that was necessary . . This time . . NO . . Nada, same deal, through 8 restarts . .
I finally reinstalled OSX 10.1, and followed with all the updates directly from Apple . . using the "Update" command under the apple . . It now does "funky" things . . like, one, it doesn't recognize the WD External HD on the desk top, but it does in the system profiler . . another, once in a while a dialog box comes up asking what to do with a disk, initialize, eject or ignore . . and probably what leads me to believe it could be a conflict with iTunes is during shut down, iTunes will not "Quit", even when using "Force Quit" . . it will close the desktop, go to a blue screen and then start up again . .
And . . I'd really like to install 10.4 but I can't seem to find anyone with a legal one for sale . . I called Apple a week ago and they said they might produce them in four or five weeks . . what's my options here?

None the less . . we still gots gremlins . .
And while I'm asking . . how come Safari is so fragile? The other nite, my wife and I were making reservations and one motel group's site crashed Safari just about 2/3ds the way through opening every time we tried . . went over to Explorer and it opened about twice as fast and operated smoothly . . This happens a lot at different sites . . always wants to know if I want to report it . . To Who?
Is 3.4.11 going to exorcise those gremlins or do I have to hire some IT Guy . . ? I've owned a Mac of some kind since the Mac IIx, (about 5, I think) but it's a tool, not a toy to me . . I just drive it . . run McJanitor once a month, clean out the icons in Safari's library and all the little maintenance thingies, but I'm no troubleshooter . . .

Is anyone else having conflict with 10.8.2 update and audio files?

I recently updated from 10.8.1 to 10.8.2 (big mistake). Now my digital interface has all of these random clicks and pops. Worse yet, when I try and play my audio files (Digital Performer) or ITUNES that music stops, starts, stutters and is basically unlistenable. Before the update everything ran smoothly. I talked with the tech support for my digital music application (Digital Performer) and he thinks there is a conflict with the latest Apple update too. Is anyone else having these problems?
To get back to 10.8.1 do I have to wipe the hard drive and re-install everything? I use my Mac for music production so this is killing me. Any ideas?

I once again reloaded 10.8.2, all of the current firewire, USB, and printer drivers (why not make sure those are up to date too, what have I got to lose?). Checked the cables, the Mac firewire ports etc. No change.
So I bought a cheap back up firewire drive (Western Digital, My Passport Studio-about $100). That worked perfectly on the firewire port of my Mac Pro.
I hooked up my MOTU 828 firewire audio interface into the Western Digital's second firewire port, and everything works perfectly.
I wish I had known that daisey chaining devices would solve my problem before I spent $500 on a new firewire interface.
If you are having similar problems with firewire connection, then try daisey chaining through a device that has no problems. Who knew a solution could be so simple?
