Installer does nothing after password

When the installer asks for the password, the password screen just disappears and i can't install anything when my password is required. I've changed my password veryifed and repaired permissions and drive and still nothing my mac book pro 15" has only done this since installing lion.
Any one know how to fix this?

I have the SAME problem!!! Did you ever get this fixed? I see that it's been a while since this was posted, I'm just wondering if you've found a solution.

  • Trying to do a software update, but my macbook pro does nothing after it prompts me to restart

    I am trying to do a software update on my Macbook Pro so I can update the new iTunes so I can start using my new iPod. Every time I go through the process of the computer searching for updates and confirming there are software updates, then being prompted to restart my computer, it does nothing. After my Macbook Pro turns on again, nothing pops up and I go into my information and it says I still have the old software. Nothing is prompting me to do the update after I restart my computer, or beforehand for that matter. HELP.

    Are you really still running 10.6.2? If Software Update isn't working for you, you may want to try using the 10.6.8 combo update found here -->> http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399.
    If that doesn't work, call back...

  • Pacman does nothing after CR - solved

    Hello,
    For some odd reason pacman doesnt do a thing when I hit enter. Normally "root:#pacman" would display help.
    root:#pacman anything
    hitting enter
    nothing.
    There is little info for me to tell, since I havent done anything (if any at all) strangely to do the system. Anybody?
    Thanks in advance

    ls -l /usr/bin/pacman
    yielded the normal output as any other command in the directory (unless it were a symlink)
    You might try -v verbose mode.
    #pacman -v
    P.S., I'm not at my computer right now, so I don't really know if that does anything...
    Nope, it didnt do a thing. We knew that already since pacman arg1 arg2 etc yields no prints or any system activity whatsoever after pressing an enter
    However, I did manage to overcome the problem.
    Copying some configfiles from the cdrom pacman package to /etc didnt work out. I wondered how I could reinstall a package without pacman, since pacman is the main installer. To me I then did the obvious and it is probably not a beautycontest winning resolve, but
    tar xzvf pacman.pkg.tar.gz -C /
    (and deleting the /.*) helped me out. Perhaps it's usefull to others as well.
    Thanks for the replies anyways

  • Flash Player installer does nothing when activated

    This happened last time too. The Flash online download method never seems to work for me. I need a direct download.

    UPDATE: I was able to install the new version of Flash when, after uninstalling Flash entirely from my computer, I went to a website that used Flash, and Firefox asked me if I wanted to install Flash. That installation seems to have worked. It wasn't the online installer, as that file has still done absolutely nothing since I downloaded it.

  • Firefox is doing nothing after extracting

    <a href="http://tinypic.com?ref=2q24gt2" target="_blank"><img src="http://i47.tinypic.com/2q24gt2.png" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"></a>
    i download the firefox then i click install after extracting nothing happens -.-

    Hi,
    Please also try right-clicking the installer and '''Run as administrator'''. If problems persist you can also try double-clicking and select '''Current user ...''' (as shown in the picture) to install it for a single user (the current user).

  • HT1199 iDVD does nothing after "create movie".

    I create a project in iMovie.  I click share, then iDVD and it says creating movie.  the bar goes across and when it reaches the end the box disappears and just nothing happens.  The DVD  still says blank if you check.
    I tried "finalizing movie" before I went to share, iDVD and still nothing.  I put the DVD in before and put the DVD in after the share, iDVD process.  Nothing.
    When I search applications I get  nothing looking for iDVD but perhaps it's just part of iMovie.
    I'm getting very frustrated.
    help!
    No OS in commuinities below?

    The current Apple thinking is that the entire world has access to fast broadband and wants to distribute home movies to friends and relatives via download (iCloud) rather than mailing them a DVD. The fact that in reality not all users do, has so far had no effect on this policy. If you scream and shout loudly enough down the phone Apple may send you a free copy of iDVD. That worked for some, but is now said to have been withdrawn by Apple. Also, you can complain bitterly here, perhaps suggesting that Apple could have provided a choice between using iCloud and burning DVDs:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    Whilst Macs with a Superdrive continue to be able to burn video DVDs, the software for so doing, iDVD, is no longer included in the iLife bundle that comes with OS 10.7 Lion (which also omitted iWeb) or will come with OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. And it is no longer included in the iLife 11 from the online Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/ilife/. Your only solution is to look on Amazon or eBay and try to get an older version that includes iDVD.
    However, the vastly more expensive FCPX can burn a DVD without iDVD or DVD Studio Pro involvement, but lack the themes etc of iDVD. Also, of course, there is Roxio Toast.

  • Client Installation does Nothing on Windows 2000 and 2003 Server.

  • "select a file" currently doing nothing after validation

    looks like currently (it was OK few days ago) nothing appends after I selected a file, using the "select a file button".

    Hello Alaremorque,
    Sorry to hear you're having trouble with CreatePDF.  Are you saying that nothing happens when you click the 'Select Files' button, or that you're unable to click 'Ok' after selecting some files from the dialog box?
    What browser are you using to access the CreatePDF service?

  • Adobe reader installer does nothing windows 8 any ideas?

    trying to install the latest reader on a windows 8 netbook. (I hate the default W8 reader) Download works fine. Start the installer and get the usual user permission dialogue so I click to go ahead. I hear some short hard drive use then it disappears into the sunset. I check cntrl Alt Delete and sure enough the installer is shown there, using no resources.
    I'm imagining that perhaps a dialogue box should be appearing asking me to click next or whatever so perhaps it's waiting for a response from me. But I see no box on the screen or on the taskbar so there is a stalemate. At least that is what I am presuming.
    Seems like I may have to abandon this but don't understand why it is such a hassle. Any ideas?

    Try the installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

  • I cannot turn on my ipod touch. the apple logo appears but does nothing after and when connected to the computer, it is nor recognize. what's the solution for this?

    how to fix ipod touch if it hungs/ does not turn on and stays only on the apple logo when you press/hold the keys home and sleep/wake. and when connected to the computer, it does not appear in the itunes that the ipod is connected or simply the computer does not recognize the device. i barely need you help guys! please...

    I found this possible solution on another support thread, so I tried it.
    turn off iPod
    hold Sleep and Home buttons to start it.
    When Apple appears, let go of Sleep button, but keep holding Home button.
    When screen goes blank, let go of Home button.
    Connect cable and check iTunes to see if it has conencted.
    This did not work for me.
    I then turned off the iPod, restarted the Mac, and restarted the iPod normally.
    I connected them with the cable, and it works like normal.  :-)

  • Compress doing nothing after I click subment

    I have submitted several job to compressor and it doesn't do anything... i just says waiting.. cant anyone help?? never had this to do this before...

    My computer suddenly keeps crashing too when I try to compress with FCP. It was working completely fine last week. If you figure anything out, please let me know. I'm going to do an update and see if that helps.

  • Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing!

    Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing! I am desperate to get access to my itunes to get music on my phone and all of this just makes me want me to sell my iphone since there is no other way to add music to my phone. If things go get sorted soon you can say goodbye to my support.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • J2EE ADDIn INSTALLATION DOES NOT MOVE AFTER ABAP UME STAGE

    Hi,
    I am installing java add-in for ABAP system for NW2004s SR2 system. I am able to complete SCS and DB instances. But during installation of CI at step u201CSAP system > ABAP UME u201Cafter
    pressing u201CNext u201Cbutton the installation does not continue without any
    warning or error message, It asks for SDM password and J2EE_ADMIN password, even after I give the password, the installation does not go forward. After pressing next it still comes to the same step.
    I had done a proper un-install through SAPinst, cleaned up all the j2ee and SDM folders manually, changed the jdk version, etc and tried, but still the same issue.
    I had created j2ee_admin, sapjsf, j2ee_guest users manually, cleared j2ee and SDM folders manually and tried to re-install but the same issue.
    There are no error messages or logs given, but just the issue. Any help at the earliest would be appreciable.

    I have a new hp tower running windows 8.1 and have been trying to install the adobe reader.  The installer downloads (1meg) and I choose to run it but it just sits with an empty screen.  I've checked task manager and it takes up memory but does nothing.  After letting it run for 3-4 minutes I kill the task.  What can I do to get the reader installed on this machine?  I've tried using chrome, firefox and explorer and get the same results with each.

    Try the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
