Installation Troubles

I don't know what happened, but when I go to install iTunes on my computer I get the following message: "... enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package iTunes.msi"
Does anyone know what this means, because I can't remove or install iTunes on my computer.

Bump, having the same problem as well. Would it just be best to contact tech support.
Thanks for any help. ^_^

Major installation trouble, can't login etc

Hi, I am a nerd.
I went through installation trouble with scsi, formating of discs and partitions, and now that I have done it and do a first reboot, I feel ashamed that I can't log in.
I was so lucky to have the partitions and the aother stuff done, that I have forgotten to create a user ore change root password. Therefore, I can't login with whatever.
Please don't tell me all the work was done for nothing, and give me a hint how I can login, and what are the superusers defaults. And, btw, very merry christmas, and thanks.

Ah, nonono ... I am sorry to tell I lost the battle against arch. I wonder who wants to have a linux distro without any ... mystik aid. Who would install gpm and won't have it to be configured for start at boot time? So the entries in rc.conf could be made, fe. Ore who wants to install X, and xf86cfg blows his monitor at first start, as is installed using an unbelievable poor setting. I don't believe there is a need to have it all made by hand. I think this is a service I need a distro for. Btw pacman is quite slow in finding dependencies and so on, compared to apt-get. And apt-get is *not* i686 compiled.So, if arch means linux from scratch with paket manager, this is not mine. I hoped it would be more debian like, but with newer packages and i686 compiled.
But I am not here to flame this distro. I wish you keep having fun with archlinux, and I want to thank you all for your aid over my xmas archlinux days.
i'm sorry you gave up ...
gpm:
in /etc/rc.conf you have to use:
GPM_ARGS="-m /dev/misc/psaux -t ps2 -S "" "
to give gpm the device where to find your mouse .. then you just include in DAEMONS=() "gpm", and voilà, you have gpm working
X:
fast/simple way: if you already have a config file from an other distro you use(d) before, you can use this
simple way: use hwd ( http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=580&start=30 )
to generate a template, then edit, if you want (but it should work also directly ... just rename the generated file)
classical ways: the ways you mentioned
-> i agree: for linux beginners, there should be a "nice tool"
now: the only thing i agree fully with you:
pacman dependency-check is slow, but in opensource things, this is actually only a matter of time (spare time of the main developer) to enhance it
hostname:
HOSTNAME="Asteraceae"
in /etc/rc.conf and
127.0.0.1 Asteraceae
in /etc/hosts should solve the problem

Installation troubles on Oracle 10g

I got an error message when installing Oracle 10g: Failure initializating OCR.
That was not a problem to finish the installation, but after that I noticed that the OracleCSService service (C:\oracle\product\10.1.0\db_1\bin\ocssd.exe service) was not initialized and I cannot do it in anyway.
I don't know if this is the reason of another trouble: I can't create a database, the system notifies me:
ORA-28547: Connection to the server failed; possible admin NET8 error.
I can't creat a Net service too. Anybody knows what is that? What can be the reason for the service not to start ? What could be wrong with NET8?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You installed the product
You have set the environment variables
Now,
How are you trying to connect?
Have you created a database?
Have you configured the NET Services?

Photoshop CS5 installation trouble - ' Installer failed to initialize '

Greetings,
Having trouble with a CS5 photoshop installation on my 4,1 2.5ghz 6gb RAM MBP. Download goes fine, disc mounts to machine, but I get stuck on the ' Installer failed to initialize' page. Downloaded the reccomended support advisor app, which cannot find a solution to my problem.
The log reveals the error:
[FATAL] Setup - Unable to copy PDAppFlex.swf one level up.
Not sure where to go from here. I've downloaded the dmg 2x, done numerous restarts, tried the cs5 cleanup tool, repair permissions....no dice.
I should mention that I have a 48gb SSD with my OS (10.6.3) as well as a 200gb drive which has my user account on it, separate from the OS. Not sure if this is part of the issue?
Thanks in advance,
Kyle

In order to test the utility perform the following steps -
Goto /Applications/Utilities and launch Terminal application. This will open a window and show you the command prompt like machine-name: user$. ditto is a command to copy files, so type ditto then drag a file to the terminal, and drag a folder to the terminal. This will create a command similar to -
ditto /Users/username/Desktop/fileToCopy.txt /Users/username/Desktop/folder/
Now hit return to run the command. If the command succeedes you will not see any error on the terminal and the file (as fileToCopy.txt) will get copied to destination folder (as /Users/username/Desktop/folder/)
In case you see any error on the terminal or the file is not getting copied to the destination folder, 'ditto' might be corrupted.

Sounblaster Audigy 2 installation troubles under Windows 7

Please see the discussion started at Microsoft,
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/de-DE/w7hardwarede/thread/c00e2-82a2-4ab-8430-39efb9c45806:
Hi. Was almost htrough with installing all my applications under Windoes7, even my soundcard was responsding to MIDI..., and Windows 7 even got me the newest audio driver for the card.
BUT then I noticed i could not record any sound. I was prompted to reinstall the software.
When the installation process reched the point of installing the driver (of course, on the CD-ROM that one was older!), the whole system was frozen and I could only shut down. After that, Windows7 would not start anymore. No chance, no restoring an earlier point of installation (they were all gone).
Well, I made it all new, but now the device manager keeps telling me there is no Audio Device, but additionally a PCI problem.
When I tried to install the Soundblaster-software, the program quit "no Soundblaster Audigy 2 card in thie computer".
When I swichted back to Windows XP, I found the soundcard properly working.
So please can someone date me up?
Please. Thanx.

Photoshop/Premiere 10 upgrade from 5 installation trouble

Having trouble installing Photoshop Elements/Premiere 10 upgrade from 5 on my pc from the installation discs. AutoPlay doesn't start; when AutoPlay.exe is selected, message reads: Invalid Unicode file: .\AutoPlay\LangData\en_US\lang.dat. Please help!

Elaborating on Johan's reply: Open the CD in Windows Explorer, and double-click Setup.exe instead of relying on the CD to Autoplay.

Nokia PC Suite re-installation trouble

Hey all!
I'm having trouble upgrading my PC Suite software. Here's a background:
Few months ago I wanted to try another OS on my PC, so I've deleted everything seemingly useless from the hard drive (including all Temp dirs) and Ghosted the drive into an image file. After a while, I've restored the image and everything works great, however, when I'm trying to upgrade the Nokia PC Suite it's trying to uninstall the previous version, installer for which it obviously won't find, as it's been deleted by me before.
Fine. I'm downloading and trying the Nokia PC Suite Cleaner tool (v. 7.1.1), cleaning the registry w/ several tools, deleting Nokia and PC Connectivity folders and it's useless. It deletes something, but when I'm trying to install the latest PC Suite version it says it can't uninstall the previous version and closes.
I've googled through a lot of info and seemingly tried everything possible, but the damn thing simply wouldn't remove itself. What am I missing? Does Nokia install a hidden registry key which the Cleaner does not remove?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is getting totally ridiculous.
TIA,
Jonathan.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Surprisingly, I did and I hope it'll help you.
Basically, Nokia PC Suite Cleaner is a piece of **bleep**. It doesn't erase everything from your computer thus you can't reinstall.
What I did is run the cleaner first - because it erases at least something. Notice that if you still have a problem, after you've runt he cleaner, it says that the product can't be uninstalled because there was no valid installation source and that the registry has been cleaned. This is a sign that you still have a problem and won't be able to install the NPS. Then you have to search your entire hard drive where Nokia PC Suite was installed for "nokia", including hidden and system files.
One of the paths you'll find is this:
C:\Documents and Settings\Jonathan\Application Data\Nokia
Back everything up from this folder and then delete it. Your settings and backups are stored there, but apparently if you don't remove it you won't get anywhere.
Then you have to do some registry cleaning. I used the CCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com/) and then Eusing Free Registry Cleaner (http://www.eusing.com/free_registry_cleaner/registry_cleaner.htm). With each software you have to run the cleaning several times at a time - for example, run the CCleaner once, let it back up your registry, repair all the issues, then run again. I did it until in both programs nothing was showing up anymore.
After that, I've restarted the computer and ran the Nokia PC Suite Cleaner again. This time, it said that no products were found. That's great. If it didn't find anything it means that you've done a good job. Now run the installation for Nokia PC Suite and it should install just fine.
DEAR NOKIA!!
I've been googling for a solution like this for a week with no answers *anywhere*, including your message boards. Is it *this* hard to make the Cleaner *actually* delete all registry entries and files? Come on!

I've noticed that in my system was installed jre till update 24 and nothing earlier. So I tried to install new version of jre (6u26) but installation process ends immediatlu after UAC prompt, without any error message. I unistalled every kind of jre I found in my Windows installation but nothing changed. Taking a look to the event monitor, i've found that for every jre installation attempt is registered an Application Error, event ID 1000. Complete text follow:
Nome dell'applicazione che ha generato l'errore: jre-6u26-windows-i586-s.exe, versione: 6.0.260.3, timestamp: 0x4dc16f4a
Nome del modulo che ha generato l'errore: unknown, versione: 0.0.0.0, timestamp: 0x00000000
Codice eccezione: 0xc0000005
Offset errore 0x04ce7658
ID processo che ha generato l'errore: 0xe6c
Ora di avvio dell'applicazione che ha generato l'errore: 0x01cc52ab9124b4df
Percorso dell'applicazione che ha generato l'errore: C:\jre-6u26-windows-i586-s.exe
Percorso del modulo che ha generato l'errore: unknown
ID segnalazione: d26812e9-be9e-11e0-a1cc-00195b0e11fa
Now my system has no java runtime environment at all, and I don't know how to fix this problem. I also tryed disabling every tsr and service running at startup, but still I'm not able to complete the jre installation.
What can I do?
Pietro

I opened a dos shell with adminstrator rights, typed command you suggested but nothing happened. Neither log file is generated at all, even I i choose a different drive (D: instead C:). In the Event Monitor, under Application section, there is an Application Error Id event 1000 for each installation attempt.

Installation troubles: silent exit? PLEASE HELP!

I am installing jdk-1_5_0_04-windows-i586-p.exe on a vital Windows 2003 Enterprise-running personal computer, and after clicking "Next" in the setup destination dialogue, the installer silently fails.
I have included the following log-file which incorporates all events and/or verbosity.

Hi,
This is a known issue, The workaround for the same is to create a folder 'Templates' at
>'<Windows drive>:\Users\<current user login>id>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\'
Then try installing PS again it should work.

ITunes and Quicktime Installation Troubles

I had to completely remove iTunes and Quicktime from my computer, and now I am having difficulties reinstalling it. When I download iTunes+Quicktime it begins to install, and then stops, saying there was an error installing Quicktime. The error is that an installation is already in progress. I have tried everything, including Windows Clean Up Utility, CCleaner, and I have gone through Control Panel, My Computer, and Task Manager. I really need some help on completely removing Quicktime from my computer. Thanks soooo much!

Could you give the exact error message with error number if there is one.
Does this problem only apply to installing QUicktime? If so using the installer clean up utility to remove any entries for QUicktime usually fixes this. The only catch is that Quicktime does not always show up properly in the clean up utility. Look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like QUicktime version numbers i.e 7.x
I would try installing Quicktime separately. Download the version of Quicktime that does not include iTunes. It is not the default option.

If there is a general installer problem, this thread contains a post suggesting the deletion of the following registry key:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress
http://www.vistax64.com/vista-general/40960-vista-business-msi-error-1500-a.html
This key should not normally be present if there are no installations in progress and it applies to Installer error 1500

1.4.2 installation troubles

I've downloaded the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition, v1.4.2 and NetBeans IDE 3.5 cobundle and I go through the initial Install Wizard setup options and start the installation and progress freezes at 6%, every single time. The title above (progress, in words) reads
"C:\Program Files\j2sdk_nb/j2sdk1.4.2 ....."
and though many attempts have been made progress will not continue. Anyone have any ideas on what to do or who to talk to?

You probably won't have any problems if you first d/l and install just the Java package, and then d/l and install NB (get it at http://www.netbeans.org/ ).
The idea of a combined process is great, but the installation is more prone to problems - most likely caused by pre-existing small glitches and errors in the target machine.

Solaris8 Intel Installation Troubles..

Hi,
I'm trying to install Solaris 8 for Intel on an old HP Vectra VL8i (400 Mhz, 128MB ram). Currently this machine has a screwed up install (*my fault* ) of Linux Mandrake 7.2. I downloaded the Solaris8 binaries off of sun.com and was trying to make a boot diskette on my 2000 adv. server box to then create the bootable .iso cd images (set of 3 cds for install). Once that was done, I had planned to start the install on my Vectra (the one running Mandrake). However, now I realized the "format a: /s" option is no longer supported under 2000. Its not even an option listed under the format help info screen. So I'm in a bit of a pickle...I'm trying to figure out how to get the necessary files on a formatted floppy diskette to make the diskette bootable with CD ROM driver support. I know I need to copy an autoexec.bat, config.sys, and setup the mscdex file to make this work, but I get lost in the details of it all.
A little later,
OK, I reinstalled Mandrake on it and its working fine now that way I can start from a clean point. I burnt 2 CDs of the first installation CD for Solari8 intel to test this with..
According to the informational instructions at Sun.com they recommend using "winzip" to unzip the archive and Adaptec EZ CD Creator to burn a "bootable .iso CD image". Well, I have both those programs and so when I unzipped the .iso file for the installation CD it appeared on my desktop as an adaptec ez cd icon. I opened it up, selected bootable CD (according to cd creator help file to make a bootable cd I need to copy a bootable floppy over to it..), it prompts me for my boot floppy, I insert it works, and creates 2 boot files. Then I add the solaris8.iso for the install cd, and burn the CD. Now, I take it over to my HP Vectra, pop it in, power on, and it loads the oak cd rom driver and sets my floppy as A: and my cdrom as X: I can now enter X: and see the solaris-8.iso file but can't do anything with it.....
FYI: I have set the CDROM to boot before the HDD in the bios.
My next attempt after reading your post was to just extract the .iso file from the zip archive and then burn it in ISO format as is...no bootable CD junk per Adaptec's Help file. I do that and pop it in and my computer does nothing, just boots up to linux mandrake because it doesn't start the install when it hits the cdrom first....again, just has the solaris8 install .iso file on it, and this time nothing else on the CD.
My question is, is there something I am missing regarding the install .iso file? Do I have to extract that to something? Windows views it as an archive.... I have scoured the sun docs and solaris intel install information and not much is on this except "extract using winzip and burn a bootable .iso using adaptec easy cd creator with the .iso file you extracted from winzip". I'm really confused at this point...I know I was trying to load it on top of a Linux Mandrake OS, but it had 4.2 GB of free space. I can't even get the installation process STARTED!!! LOL!
Thanks for any help...
PS...I think something is messed up with my HDD now. I went through fdisking my non-dos partitions (linux mandrake) and formatting the HDD from a boot floppy to see if this might help. It didn't. However, now there is supposedly nothing on my HDD. However if I just let it boot up it comes up to a "grub" shell, and has only limited functionality (like 20 commands). So there is obviously something still left on my HDD.
Oh also, before that I tried using the first Solaris OS .iso file not the INITIAL install .iso I was previously using. This is the .iso you mentioned I should try to use. I am still stuck at the same place...it won't start the install. I don't know if its because something is incorrect with my HDD or if its something I'm missing regarding copying the .iso onto the CD to start with....ANY, and I do mean ANY help is greatly appreciated here!

Hi, I'm not sure that I understanded your actual problem correctly, but I think that your installation CD's, where you said are .iso files, you messed up. The ISO files are images, like HD partitions archived in one file for portability. You have to burn those images with burner which supports ISO images, in other words, burning software unarchives the ISO image while the burn process, so correctly burned CD contains all ISO images files and directories , not just one big ISO file. I think 'cdrecord' in Linux supports ISO images.
Sorry my bad english, its not my native language :)
