Install software on usb

Hello, I got NI Circuit Designe Suite for student edition. I want to install the software that I got on a usb drive or external hard drive so I can work on my class work at home or at my job site. When I try to install the software and do tell the software where to install. It will install some of it on the computer and rest on usb drive. When I go to bring it up on another computer, I get error messages saying missing files. I don't want to install on a computer, just want on usb drive or external hard drive. Is there anyway to do this. Thanks.

Hey,
It is not possible to install Multisim on an external drive (or usb drive) to take somewhere else and axpect it to work. There are files which will be installed no matter what (registry files,etc) on your local disk and it needs these files to work.
Cheers,

Satellite Pro L300 - Cannot install software for USB 3.0 Expresscard

I am trying to install an AKE USB 3.0 expresscard to a Toshiba Pro L300 running Windows 7. The laptop recognises the expresscard but the software does not install correctly so the unit will not work.
Have tried the NEC & Fresco drivers supplied with the unit and also tried other drivers for AKE downloaded fron internet but still no joy.
Has anyone ever loaded in software for a USB3.0 expresscard successfully? Will the laptop take USB 3.0?
Any help would be much appreciated.

If the software doesnt install correctly try to contact card manufacturer and ask for help.

Problem installing software using USB SuperDrive

Hi You Clever People Out There
I've tried to search previous enquiries, but from what I can see there are similar issues but not specifically one to match my problem... So thanks in advance of any help you can offer and apologies if I'm doing something really dumb....
I've been trying to load some software (Vectorworks and Photoshop Elements, specifically) using the USB SuperDrive, which I understand should now be compatible with my latest model iMAC 27'' (I bought it last month)
However, I seem to have lost permission rights as when I click on the installation file I get a message saying 'the application can't be found' (same for both discs / programmes). When I go to 'Get Info', the Sharing & Permisions states 'you can only read', with no apparent options for changing the setting
I can load and watch DVDs and the SuperDrive flags up in Finder as 'remote disc', but when I try to Get Info for this, I just get 'General' and 'Preview' categories. A third category 'More Info' does not load - it just shows a continuoisly spinning dial with the message 'Fetching...' - or at least doesn't appear to as I've let continue for over 30mins
Prior to this I had succesfully installed the programmes on my PC - which I am planning to phase out in preference to the MAC - and both the disks are formatted for MAC OS Standard
Needless to say I've tried the 'switching on/off' and therfore exhausted my IT support tool repertoire:-) so hopefully there's enough info here for someone to recognise what's going on.

The Disk Utility repair disk can't be run on the boot disk from the boot disk. You must boot into another hard drive and run Disk Utility from it on your boot drive. Or you can try booting into the Recovery HD that Mt. Lion creates. There you can run Disk Utility. I'm not sure if you can repair disk with this method but it's worth a try. I've only used it to reinstall the system on my iMac. Apple - OS X Recovery restores your Mac with a few clicks.
Another possibility is to boot into Safe Mode, Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode. During startup it will run some of the repair routines that disk utility does. That may be sufficient. Reboot and verify the disk again with DU.

How do I install windows from USB on Macbook pro 3,1

How do I install windows from USB on Macbook pro 3,1 ?
My Superdrive is far from super anymore, So I managed to make an extern drive with both Snow Leopard Partition, Lion Partition (Since I thought Boot Camp 4,1 would bypass my problem), and Time Machine partition, Since I got 1. USB drive that works.
- My general issue is that Boot camp Refuse to see the USB drive - (Many "how to"´s though show how they install windows perfectly through the USB port, but they use airbooks!, and somehow the Macbook will not ?)
I fix that issue with >> rEFIt <<, that suddenly makes it possible for the Mac to see the USB drive, and partitions.
Which was very strange since I could use an extern HD with the whole installation to start up wipe the whole disk, and then use my extern drive with partitions to install Snow Leopard and get everything as before with timemachine. Very smart with timemachine, but very lucky that I have a extern drive that runs the whole system and that I made the partitionsdrive before. DVD-drives are the past!
Point: So the original system could see the Snow Leopard installation USB disk, but boot camp cannot find the USB drive ?????????
After rEFIt I booted and then I got this error:
Starting bootmgr.efi
Error: Unsupported while loading bootmgr.efi
I read it could be a problem with the Windows software, so I purchased an extern DVD drive, Used Disk Utility to make an image (.DMG), then used another program to convert the .dmg to .ISO.
Then downloaded a trialversion of vmWare fusion, and installed windows from the iso. Everything worked brilliant, except and that is why I want to use boot camp, Running windows in another program while running the mac system is a little hacky and slow.
Point: Nothing is wrong with the windows software, and windows runs fine.
I then downloaded the Windows DVD / USB Tool, reformatted a USB drive as Master Boot Partition, MS-Dos Fat partition, then after lots of struggling got Vmware, windows to recognise the USB drive. And installed the windows software on the USB drive, as all the walkthroughs recommend.
Then I tried for "fun"! to just install windows form the extern USB drive, and with rEFIt it will see the drive and start to do something, but then when it starts to boot, the screen just turns into black and nothing happens, and you can see the drive does NOTHING. (I think it is because I only have 1 USB drive and the Extern DVD drive does not get enough power, but again the mac refuse to see the USB drive unless it is a Snow Leopard installation USB-drive!
Well trying to install Windows Ultimate 64 Bit, which worked great in vmware, because that program installed from the .ISO file that I had on the desktop, but trying with Boot Camp did not get anywhere, what kind of **** program is this boot camp anyway!?, but then I try the new USB disk with windows made from windows, thorugh rEFIt, it sees the disk and then starts and then I get this ERROR:
rEFIt - Booting Legacy OS
Starting legacy loader
Using load option ´USB´
Error: Not found returned from legacy loader
Error: Not found from LocateDevicePath
(x 9 times)
Error: Load Error while (re)opening our installation volume
The firmware refused to boot from the selected volume. Note that external hard drives are not well-supported by Apple´s firmware for legacy OS booting
(Hey Apple please send out a updated firmware that fix this issue?!)
So how do I do it ? - or is the only option to fix the partition running the system from the extern disk. Format the whole drive in 2 from the "bottom" and install windows and then afterwards install Mac on the other partition ? Or just run windows on the mac and forget about mac software ? What a stupid solution...

There are strings in the pliist file to add other Macs so that you can use some USB-DVD drives.
This is 5 page thread, so a little more 'meat' to it:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3410900?start=60&tstart=0
And on PC booting Windows from a USB DVD to do the install is usually a piece of cake, sometimes you just need to specify that USB in the BIOS boot order and sometimes select via F12 (or another Fkey) and that is it.
What you have here seems to be everything and everyone is excluded unless there is a mac-model device ID string that specifies yes. An unnecessary hurdle.

HP C1680 fails to install Software

Can you please help
I have just reinstalled my operating system Windows 7 6- bit OS and needed to reinstall my printer HP Photosmart C6180 All in One. When I first got my new PC( Dell XPS 501L windows 7 Intel core i5. 243M 2.40GHz) I originally install the whole package with no issues.
after the reinstall of the OS, this is issue I was I getting when I tried to reinstalled the HP application (AIO_CDA_FSW_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe )
Error message:-
C:\Users\andylouey\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS4864\setup\HPzPNP.ice.
I have done the following:
Tried to install from an old download of the software. Result Failed to install message as above.
Tried the original install CD and also tried to use them in various compatibility modes. Result Failed.
Downloaded the critical updates from HP solved the above error message result the above error message was solved.
Downloaded the latest install software program for my HP printer from the HP website tried again to install failed
Ran the HP Scan doctor reported that the printer drivers are all working asked it to run the scan program it reported that it need the full install of the C1680 software to run this
I got the download again ran it. It extracts the file then just disappears and looking at the task manager there is not install running. So again failed
For the second time I downloaded the HP installer network printer wizard but this failed and just keeps going round in circles> It finishes the download gets to the extracting point and then goes back to the identify printer( which is listed) then goes back once again and downloads the install software.
Other steps I have taken. I used the old installation disk to do a complete uninstall of all the drivers and software using Utilities> CCC> Uninstall_ L2.bat . This wored and uninstalled the printer and drivers and I think any remaining software. I also deleted all the %TEMP% files that my Laptop would allow.
Then once again I I used the install wizard first without the USB cable disconnected then the wizard asked me to plug it in. I plugged it in and HP Wizard found the printer and downloaded the appropriate software completed the download and extracted it and then NOTHING.
I have also downloaded the critical update:-
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-126392-2&cc=uk&dlc=en&lc=en...
Can you suggest a solution help. In my view I need to start from scratch and remove all traces of any HP software and drivers and start over. My only issue with this I have done this and still have the same issues. If I go to Microsoft uninstall utility there isn’t anything to uninstall.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
PS. HP wizard has finished downloading for the fourth time and looping to discovering the device again :-( HELP!!!!!!!!
Thanks in adbance for your replies Andy

Hi
Thank you for your reply and your advice and help
If you look at my help request aboveI have described that I have done your suggetion and yet there are still traces of HP on my hard drive and I am still haveing the same issues.
Below are the steps you have referred to which I covered in my original request :-
Other steps I have taken. I used the old installation disk to do a complete uninstall of all the drivers using CCC> Utilities and Uninstall_L3 . I also deleted all the %TEMP% files (7z) that my Laptop would allow.
Then once again I I used the install wizard first wit the USB cable disconnected then the wizard asked me to plug it in. I plugged it in and HP Wizard found the printer and downloaded the appropriate software completed the download and extracted it and then NOTHING. Except the drivers were installed and the printer was shown in the devices and printers.
I have also downloaded the critical update:-
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-126392-2&cc=uk&dlc=en&lc=en...
Can you suggest a solution help. In my view I need to start from scratch and remove all traces of any HP software and drivers and start over. My only issue with this I have done this and still have the same issues. If I go to Microsoft uninstall utility there isn’t anything to uninstall.
I can print to the printer both wirelessly and via the USB port. But the Solution center will not install just keeps looping. ie idenifies the printer downloads the latest sofware and extracts it then just dissapears of the screen. Nothing comes up and there are no HP programs running in the applications task manager and no processes either.
Thank you in advance for your reply. Regards Andy

Error 16389 running a Task Sequence to install software

We've run into multiple WinXPProSP3 computers generating error code 16389 when trying to run a TS. After searching on Google, we found this,
http://blogs.technet.com/b/smsandmom/archive/2007/10/29/sccm-2007-task-sequence-fails-drive-letter-not-displayed.aspx
, which led to another article to modify a RegKey, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} , to add a key of UpperFilters, with a value of PartMgr. The key WAS missing on the machines with
the error, and, adding that key and value DOES fix the problem. This key and value seem to be default for the OS.
However, searching Google for that RegKey has a LOT of suggestions to delete that key and value, due to issues with USB Thumbdrives and iPods not being seen when plugged in--so, it seems that there may be a conflict.
Does anyone know of a fix for Error 16389 without having to add that key, if it's going to cause other problems?
Thanks.

Hi,
Will you please past the detailed errors in the smsts.log?
From your description your are using TS to install software right?
If so you should first make sure this software package meats the following requirement when it was deployed through TS:
this program can be installed under local system account.
this program can be installed without any user interaction (such as: press next button).
this program will not force computer reboot, it allows sccm ts to manage the reboot.
If your OSD TS return 16389 exit code, you can try to change the volume license keys. Because once i have seem this error and it was solved by changing the volume license key.
Hope this will help.
Thanks

HP Officejet 8600 Cannot install software because printer is not detected on the wireless network

Hello,
recently I faced an issue with my new HP Officejet N911a: when trying to install software & drivers, I get an error "printer is not found on the network". Here is my setup and what I tried already:
- printer is connected to home wireless network (there is solid blue light on the printer etc). It has an IP address 192.168.x.x
- Windows 7 (64-bit) Lenovo laptop is connected to the same wireless network
- I don't have any MAC filtering
- I broadcast my SSID and have WPA-PSK
- I have default Windows 7 firewall
I was installing the latest drivers from HP website, but when it comes to installation, software never "sees" my printer on the network. I'm able to ping it and access from Windows explorer (by typing printer's IP address \\192.168.x.x).
I can install the printer via "Add printer", and wireless printing works fine, but in this case I'm unable to scan (error message is "Scanner communication cannot be established"). So I assume, that for scanning, I definitely need HP software.
If I connect the printer via USB to my laptop, software installs and I can scan without any issue. However, I would like printer to work wirelessly...
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi,
I don't have a similar printer to check but for few models the default scan to computer is Disabled, please don't ask me why. And we, users, have to enable this by:
Double click printer icon on desktop,
Click Manage Scan to Computer,
Click Enable
You may want to tick the last square too.
New software update may remove this option, please use HP Scan from All Programs > HP > HP [your printer] > HP Scan
Hope this helps.

How do I install software from cd-rom onto my IdeaPad S10?

I just received my IdeaPad S10. How do I install software from a cd-rom onto it? I tried putting my cd-rom in my regular laptop and copying it onto a flash drive and then copying it to the IdeaPad. The installation starts, then I get a message that installation has stopped because the installation has been corrupted. Any easy ways to install software?

Here's what you can do.
Download virtual Clone drive (freeware) from here http://www.slysoft.com/en/download.html install it on your S10.
Now on your destop, make a backup ISO of your software CD or DVD.
I use this http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm it integrates with explorer on the right click menu. There are other solutions also.
Once your ISO is created you can copy it to your S10 via network, usb key, etc, and mount it as a drive letter with Virtual CLone drive.
Hope that helps.

For installing software packages, long delay in recognizing startup disk

I have found that any time I install software using an installer package (e.g. flip4mac) on my iMac, there is a long delay before my startup disk is recognized as a valid installation location. All of the other drives are evaluated immediately, but I'd say it's about 20 seconds before I get the option of my startup disk (green arrow pointing down at a picture of a hard drive).
Does anyone know what is causing this and how I might alleviate the problem? It's annoying, and I wonder if it's a sign of some deeper problem.
I do have a bootcamp partition that I rarely use, and I have an external USB drive that I use for time machine backups.

The more external storage devices you have connected to your computer the longer it's going to take to for your computer to evaluate which volumes it can install on. Short of dismounting the external HD's first this is the price you will be paying for all the external devices. BTW I'm in the same boat, I have 3 EHD's daisy chained together using FW 800.

Installing software from an external DVD writer?

I have a MacBook Pro Summer 2012 so I needed an external DVD writer (Samsung SE-208) to install reFXs plug-in Nexus 2. I have connected the writer and I can hear it's running and it shows up in Finder. The problem is that no DVD is showing up. The writer supposedly works out of the box on Mac. What can I do? Is it even possible to install software from a DVD writer?

Could be the DVD is for a Windows system and not Mac OS X. Try any music CD in the drive. I personally have never had any problem with any brand external DVD drive that connect by USB port on my Mac. I have even used a Desktop style/size DVD drive that is supposed to be installed inside a desktop case and as long as I supply the proper power to it and connect it to my Mac with a SATA/IDE to USB adapter the drive works just fine.

E65 and problems to install software

Hello,
Background:
Bought my E65 in September last year. Installed a bunch of software on it as Live Messenger, Hotmail, games and I never had problems installing software. When F/W 2.0633.65.01 was released, I tried to update my phone but the USB cable glitched during the update and... I had to send the handset for reparation (total re-flash?). I got my phone back and all pre-installed software works. I had a backup of all my files, so that was no worries.
Problem:
After I got back my handset from the service, there are very few Symbian applications that I can install. I cannot install Windows Live Messenger, Hotmail, Y-Browser or anything. It only comes up with a message "Couldn't install" (translated from Swedish). It starts the installation (the progress bar comes up), but it won't finish the install. There are a few Symbian application that actually works, such as JokuSpot.
Have any of you guys experienced this problem and do you know of the resolve it?
Cheers,
M

In order to install anything that may have system wide impact - such as a driver or some applications - you require "administrative" privileges.
The first user that you create when installing OS X has "administrative" privileges by default. All other users must have them granted to them.
This configuration prevents non-administrative users from installing software that can inadvertently effect the overall system. Non-administrative users will only be allowed to install software that remains specific to their user space.
You have a few options:
1 - Log in as the original administrative user and install the drivers.
2 - Log in as the original user, and use the system preferences pane to add administrative privileges to your own account - log out - and back in and install the software.
3 - Lastly (and not recommended) you could enable the root user (I think this requires admin privileges!) and log in as the root user to install the software.

Perhaps you can copy it using a different computer, from the disk to a USB key.
However, external DVD drives are cheap and in my view essential.
