Installer doesn't work for any application

The installer app itself is not working on my mac (Macbook Pro, running Version 10.8.5), and it doesn't work regardless of the software that I'm trying to install.
I get the following error message:
Installer cannot be opened because of a problem.
Check with the developer to make sure Installer works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X.
Any help/suggestions?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List

'Check Spelling While Typing' does not work for any applications

Earlier I had a problem with misspelled words underlined but when I right-click it does not offer spelling suggestions.
Now, none of my applications underline misspelled words. Even if I select the option to "Check Spelling While Typing" it does not change anything. This applies to all applications (Mail, TextEdit, EverNote, Firefox, etc).

Update: Inexplicably the underline for misspelled words now works but now when I right-click for corrections it shows 'No Guesses Found' for any word.

Paste (Kb shortcut or menu) doesn't work in any application

So, I cannot paste any form of text into any document, box, etc. using either the keyboard shortcut or the finder menu. All keys work on the keyboard, OS X just makes the default error noise (Funk) when I try it. Any ideas? Thanks

See if a reboot helps.

Genius doesn't work for any songs

When I want to start genius of any song, there always shows either "this song does not have enough related sons to create a Genuis playlist" or "Genius is unavailable for the song" even for the "most famous songs". Now I am so frustrated that I never know what this product really does. Does anybody has the same problem?
Thx a lot.

I've found a lot of threads in this forum with the exact same issue. Can ANYONE create genius playlists from songs from the following albums?
Ben Folds - Lonely Ave
The Decemberists - The King Is Dead
Sufjan Stevens - The Age of Adz

HT6030 Unread mail count still doesn't work for any mail accounts after installing the Nov. 7 Mail fix. I deleted Gmail from my Mac Mail so that's not the problem.

I still cannot get an Unread Mail count in the Dock even after installing the the Nov. 7 Mavericks update. I deleted my Gmail account from my Mac, so I know that's not a problem. I checked the Mail preferences, and thay is configured correctly. Any suggestions?

Point noted re multiples posts [ there were loads of typos in previous] . Your previous reply may indeed be one way of solving my problem. Thanks .
Nevetheless why does Apple prodcue "updated " software which isnt properly comptiable or tested; with the result that it now doesnt work well with Gmail when the prevoius version worked fine. You would think an update would at least work with Gmail as well as the prevsoius version did. G mail is very widely used, so they, Apple, and probably Google too are shooting themselves in the foot if they can't make the software compitable,

I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

Do not worry about it.
Time Machine needs that your external drive is formatted in HFS+, or better known as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". This filesystem is used by Apple on Macs and Windows cannot read or write drives formatted with this filesystem, being this the reason why all your devices do not read the external drive except your Mac.
You can only use your external drive to make Time Machine drives. If you store anything different, you may damage the Time Machine structure, so it is better not to use it as a drive to store other data. Instead, get another external drive to do it or create a second partition on the external drive formatted in FAT32 by using Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html FAT32 can be read by Windows PCs

So, you're totally new to computers?
Go to the Help menu in Photoshop and select the System Info menu item. Copy all that information and paste all of it here MINUS your serial number.
Yes, Photoshop can delegate a lot of the computing tasks to the GPU on your graphics card. You may have to disable that feature in Photoshop Preferences > Performance.

SPRunConversionVersion7.0.119:Doesn't Work for Account without any ratetype

Hi Experts,
I work with SAP BPC MS7.0
And the SPRUNCONVERSION doesn't work for accounts without any ratetype : value in the dimension is in blanck.
I though that it was supposed to work like this :
"The stored procedure SPRUNCONVERSION scans all records found in the selected region of data and translates them according to the RATETYPE property assigned to the ACCOUNT specified in each record, based on the following mechanism:
All ACCOUNTS with no RATETYPE (ratetype = blank) will be translated with a factor of 1
All ACCOUNTS with the reserved RATETYPE = NOTRANS will not be translated
All other ACCOUNTS will be translated according to the definitions contained in the table of parameters called clcFXTRANS."
Doesn someone has faced this problem already ? how can I solve it ?
Thanks for your help,
Olivia

Hi Olivia,
This was seen as inconsistent behavior and was corrected in SP10.
See the following note [1569127|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1569127] for further information.
Thanks,

Application Restart and Recovery APIs doesn't work for windows services

I am using the Application Restart and Recovery mechanism (provided in Windows API Code Pack for Microsoft.NET Framework) to collect some information (i.e. stack information when there's an unhandledexception) before my windows service crash down.
It works well for windows form applications, but the callback method wouldn't be called if the host is a windows service.
I have checked the article: https://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/subscriptions/downloads/cc303708
But it doesn't specify clearly whether it works for a windows service. It seems that the recovery will only be activated when the user interacts with the error dialog of Windows Error Reporting (clicking "close" on the dialog, for example).
So I am wondering is my guess right that the Application Restart and Recovery mechanism doesn't work for windows services. Or is there a better way to meet my requirement?

I would suggest trying ARR if that's what you want to use. The restart portion won't work, but it doesn't need to as if you fail out of your service, the Windows service controller will handle recovery (up to and including restarting your service).
You configure those recovery actions either through code or one of the built in administrative tools for services such as services.msc.
DebugDiag/ADplus and similar tools ultimately do use built-in APIs; you don't need to add anything external to collect debugging information. You do however have to write a good deal of code to do somethings. It's pretty simple to use the unmanaged
function that I pointed out before and
MiniDumpWriteDump to write a minidump when you hit an unexpected error(the dbghelp.dll that comes installed with Windows has it so you don't need anything additional installed). You can even write a basic debugger that literally debugs a process using
only kernel32 functions (see
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms679301(v=vs.85).aspx if you're interested).

Pickup Clock doesn't work for markers. Any alternatives?

Hello everyone,
It seems that Pickup clock doesn't work for markers (I guess markers are not considered an "event.") Is there a way to move markers as quickly as I do "event" data with pickup clock; e.g. a key command that allows you to write the location start time of your markers? Or even better, a way to move all data within locators to different song positions quickly?
I'm scoring a film and trying to break down my master "spotting" session (in which I placed markers at the beginning of each cue) into separate files. Moving "events" is easy, as I just separate at the marker using "cut at spl" select all following, move SPL to bar 1, and use pickup clock. However, no "global track" data seems to move via pickup clock. Is there an easier way to achieve my goal?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Is it that you want to move Global components that fit with a particular cue ( such as Volume Automation etc) around in the same Song? ie try one piece of music over two different scenes in the film? Or shift an entire cue slightly sooner or later against the picture?
YES!! This would be AMAZING if I could do this easily. As a work around I change the actual movie and of the dialog / sound FX tracks, which can take some time to get them correct and leaves you with multiple song files. It would be much easier if there was a way to grab everything within your Left and Right Locators, and be able to move it around, copy and paste, etc.
I tried experimenting with Split/Cut/Insert Time and a segment of regions which included some volume/fader changes - no dice. Logic can copy automation vertically track to track but not in a Linear way.. though I may be speaking in complete ignorance.
I'm going to read up on Split/Cut Time as well, as this maybe the key. As for your automation issues, I know logic will not copy / paste automation when there is no "node," (i.e. if you are cutting on bar 5, but the last node was on bar 3 and the next on bar 7, it will not "go back to 3" to get the proper levels) so in the past I have placed nodes on the beginning and end of the section I want to copy, and the automation then copied fine. Of course if you have a lot of automation, it can be a PITA to place nodes in each track, but it does seem to work. Hope that helps!

...my wife a 5C, the Apple Health Apps works on my phone but not on hers. My neighbor has the same problem, it doesn't record record distance or steps...
This is because the iPhone 5C does not have a motion coprocessor: a chip that calculates and records your motion like steps and distance. Your iPhone 6 has one (it's called A8). In this case your wife can use a Health supported third party app (like Nike+ Running) to report this data to the Health app.
Hope this helps!

Debugger not working for BSP application

Hi All,
I have 4.6C sap installation and the debugger is not working for BSP Application even when i hard code the break points.
Can anyone help me on this issue.
Thanks and Regards
Shilpa

Hi Shilpa,
How many number of sessions are open ? If there are already six sessions open and then you try and get the debugger, it will not start, and you won't be able to catch that error also...!
Other than that there is no possibility that the debugger doesn't start, unless ofcourse, the logic doesn't reach the debugger point....
Hope this helps.

The lower case P doesn't work on any of my keyboards.

Tried other keyboards and it doesn't work on any of them, so it must be a software Problem. Any ideas how to fix?
I have a iMac Running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.
