Installer "error encountered while writing receipt"

I'm running off 10.4.10, and have been trying to install updates for months now, unsuccessfully. When I try to install off of the automatic updating system, it simply tells me the installation has failed and to try again later. When I download updates seperately and check the log, I find that there was an "error encountered while writing receipt". There is no respective receipt in the Receipts folder. I've tried installing right after a reboot, repairing disk permissions, and searching through support help for hours.
Also, I'm not sure if this is related or not, but iTunes has gone blank after starting up a few times over the past several months, telling me that the Library is damaged.
Please help!
Thanks,
AMC

HI AMC20 and welcome to Apple Discussions ...
Let's take this one issue at a time.
Locate this file: com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist It's here: /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the preferences folder to the trash, empty the trash and reboot. Go to the Apple logo top left in your Desktop and then click Software Update. If Software Update fails... we need to go further.
See how much available drive space there is. Select your MacintoshHD icon on your Desktop, then Command + I, which will prompt the Get Info window. Click the General tab so the arrow faces down. Look where it says; Available and Capacity Try not to allow your available drive space to fall below 15% of the capacity. Software Update cannot download and update software without enough space.
As for iTunes... go here to learn how to recreate your iTunes Library:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451 < recreate iTunes Library
If you continue to have problems, you might want to do an Archive & Install or Erase & Install:
Reinstalling Mac OS X
Under some circumstances, you may need to reinstall Mac OS X. You can reinstall Mac OS X while keeping your files and user settings intact.
Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc and double-click the Install Mac OS X icon.
Follow the onscreen instructions. In the panel where you select the destination disk, select your current Mac OS X disk (in most cases, it will be the only one available).
Click Options. If you want to save your existing files, users, and network settings, select "Archive and Install," then select "Preserve Users and Network Settings." If you want to erase everything on your computer and reinstall Mac OS X, select "Erase and Install." You can't recover erased data.
Click Continue.
Click Customize to select which parts of Mac OS X you'd like to install, or click Install to perform a basic installation (recommended).
If you purchased a standalone version of Mac OS X, these installation instructions are in a booklet included with Mac OS X.
If you need to reinstall the version of Mac OS X that was on your computer when you purchased it, or if you need to restore all the software on your computer, including Apple, bundled third-party applications, and printer drivers, instructions are in the manual that came with your computer.
For more information, visit the Mac OS X Install and Upgrade Support website at www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/.

Error encountered while copying audio stream

In Captivate 4, I attempt to capture screens. I hear the clicking as it captures, I click END when finished. Program attempts to save and then a dialog box displays with "error encountered while copying audio stream". I am not attempting to record any audio.
I searched the web and found references to this error back two versions and two years - but no solution.
Does anyone know of a solution? Thanks.

Hi there,
I have experienced this on Windows XP. In my case this was due to a dll (Dynamic Link Library) file not being corectly registered in the Windows XP Registry. If you are using XP then take a look at the following blog post.

If this doesn't solve the problem or you are using Windows Vista then please report this issue to the Adobe Captivate team using the web address I have included below.

Error encountered while communicating with primary IP-address

Hi
I have recently deployed my first Exchange Server. This is an Exchange Server 2013 Standard and I set up everything using this document on Technet for installation: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124778(v=exchg.150).aspx
For post-installation I used this document on Technet: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124397(v=exchg.150).aspx
I have setup access to port 25, 587, 143, 993, 110, 995, 80, 443 in my routers SPI-firewall and created DNAT rules for each of these ports as well. I can send mail without any issues, but I cannot receive. Reverse DNS is working both internally and externally.
I can telnet to port 25 on my external IP and external domain which is exchange.mydomain.tld
My Exchange-server is running inside a Gen1 Hyper-V virtual machine on a Windows Server 2012 R2.
My Exchange Server has the following resources:
OS: Windows Server 2012 R2
CPU: 2 cores of AMD FX-6120 3.30GHz
RAM: 3584MB
HDD1: IDE 80GB VHDX - is currently used for all system files and for Exchange.
HDD2: SCSI 127GB VHDX - will be used for Exchange DB and logs when everything is working.
When sending mail from any internal or external e-mail address to an internal e-mail address I get the following error in Exchange Queue Viewer:
"451 4.4.0 Error encountered while communicating with primary target IP address:"421 4.2.1 Unable to connect." Attempted failover to alternate host, but that did not succeed. Either there are no alternate hosts, or delivery failed to all alternate
hosts. The Last"
How can I solve this issue? If you need any more information please let me know and I will see if I can find it.

Hi I have now tried to send mail to an internal address using telnet. This returned the following value:
250 2.6.0 <[email protected]> [InternalId=1971389988866] Queued mail for delivery
Next I tried to send to an external mail by using telnet and it returned this result when adding the reciepient:
550 5.7.1 Unable to relay

A Critical error encountered while loading webpage.

Was running 2.1.51 and when browsing to the status link while logged in to the web gui I got a blank web page with the following text:
A Critical error encountered while loading webpage.
Reboot router - log back in - can go anywhere except the status page -- get same error page
made the mistake of downloading and upgrading firmware to 2.1.71   = upgrade completed successfully = presented with the new login screen confirming that the box is running the new code -- now when I log in - I don't get in rather the previous error page - and cant get anywhere.
A Critical error encountered while loading webpage.
the url is https://192.168.75.1/scgi-bin/platform.cgi   but it doesn't load only displays the error.
could someone share another valid management url for the box so I can at least try to get in somewhere before attempting to factory reset this POS ;-(
thanks.

Thanks for the response.   Based on the number of crickets that I heard after asking the question, I did indeed factory reset the box. Luckily I had a backup of the config so it wasn't too painful to restore.
I beleive the root cause co-incided with the expiration of the trend micro web protection gateway service.
For whatever reason, I did not receive any notification that the service was to expire but the error experienced was noticed just two days after the subscription expired... I had successfully logged in without issue and was able to view the status tab only a week earlier.
be sure to pay the cisco tax on time or they'll lock you out of your box was the lesson learned...

An internal error occurred while writing imported graphics in this document. The file has been saved

An internal error occurred while writing imported graphics in this document. The file has been saved, but has lost some image data. Please report this error to Adobe Technical Support.
How do i fix this, there are no images in the document
thanks

We are running FM version 7.2b144 on MS Win xp Pro (32 bit), and I did not notice this until service pack 3 was installed. I believe I have found a work around to the situation and another contributing cause. If graphic files are placed directly in an anchored frame instead of importing by reference, the file somehow becomes misplaced. If you right click the graphic and open the Object Properties dialog box, and see the phrase "no referenced file" below Main Editor: Referenced File: in the lower left hand corner, this has happened. I found if I removed all graphics files without references and imported them by reference, the source file may then be properly saved. I am also using a program called CCleaner, which removes cookies, temp files, browsing history and the like from a system. If the program settings are chosen too aggressively, and the application runs when FM has a file open, this same error will occur, even if all files are referenced properly. I don't know if SP3 has some similar application which is now running in the background and causing this.
To summarize, if you want to retain SP3, I have eliminated this error by confirming the links to referenced graphics files and avoiding using 3rd party "cleaners" while FM is open.

I assume you are implying "biztax" application here, right?
I have contacted their program lead, with no result at all.
Past days I have been searching for a solution - reinstalls / new systems - no solution.
This issue appeared a week or two ago only.
I found http://forums.adobe.com/message/5338853 useful - but no positive results either.
http://test.eid.belgium.be/faq/faq_nl.htm obviously didnt help either.
If anyone finds a solution to this issue, please do let me know - any help is appreciated.
Biztax tells to use the "signature", not the "authentication" - but it is only Auth. that is showing up as option to sign (that works)
ps, did you fiddle with the Adobe Reader XI security settings and import that PKI etc as well? I hoped that would be the breaktrough. Sadly i'm still crying in my chair.
Oh, and dont forget: they claim nobody else got this issue. Maybe one or two people. (We got about 8 customers experiencing exactly the same symptoms at the same time )

Error encountered while reading TIFF image, Image may be damaged of incompatible. Resave the image w

I am currently running CS3, windows XP, service pack 2, with recent update, 5.03 installed today.
I just opened a 500 page document not in sections where 90% of the document is a placed PDF.
The PDFS were placed using a sample Script that came with Indesign, that instructs the PDF to automatically flow each page after another.
When scrolling through quickly in the pages pallette, I get the follwing error:-
"Error encountered while reading TIFF image, Image may be damaged of incompatible. Resave the image with different settings and try again."
I click OK.
Then I get the following error.....
" Could not complete request because of database error. The File "ABC.indd" is damaged (Error Code: 3).
Click OK....
Then I get the following error....
Adobe Indesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected. Please restart Indesign to recover work in any unsaved Indesign documents.
Then I get the error.......
Indesign.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for any inconveneince.
And I have two buttons to click....
Debug or Close.....
If I click Debug, it closes Indesign.
Within this window there is also a window to gather further information....I click it and it tells me...
"Indesign.exe....Error Signature AppName: indesign.exe AppVer: 5.0.3.662
ModName: public.dll ModVer: 5.0.3.662 Offset: 0002e19a"
To view technical inforamtion about the error report, clikc here....
"Then it creates an error report and tells me where the report is located along with a scrollable window of 0xc0000005 and heap of zeros."
The report conatains a whole heap of CHECKSUM ERRORS.
CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP??
I had these errors before updating to 5.03 and the patch hasn't rectified anything!!

Open the .inx file in CS3 (that's what you have, right?) and save as a new .indd.
I'd also be tempted to open the tiff in Photoshop and do a save as to re-write it.
Let us know if it helps.
Storing files on the network leaves you more open tot he risk of file damage during transfer and save operations.

"JavaScript Error encountered while loading HTML"

Hi,
I have been trying to embed a google map on a InDesign CC page, NO LUCK YET.
I spoke several Adobe InDesign help line people, unfortunately they couldn't solve it.
Here is the problem: I tried with different versions
1- version) I copy of a map code and paste the code on a page, shows grey square round image and nothing (no map)
2- version) From Object menu:
    "Select insert HTML.."
    "This is an HTML snippet."
I paste the codes into HTML box, a second later, small box message,
     "JavaScript Error encountered while loading HTML"
I have 64bit 12gb ram computer with windows 8.1
InDesign CC version 9.2.1 x64
Java 7 update 51
I have tried with Internet explorer, google chrome and fire fox, and different maps, still no luck.
Can anyone solve this problem?
Thank you in advance,
atamtan

Yes, Google changed something and not for the better.
Try a bing map instead. They work fine.

Error encountered while polling the resource for the service endpoint

Hello everyone
I'm a newbie on OSB world. Yesterday, I've tried to test OSB with FTP transport and got some problems.
As you see in the title, I've search this forum to get a solution already, but I couldn't find anything. So that I create a new thread.
I created a new OSB project, create a new Proxy service to connect to my FTP server:
- service type: messaging service
- request message type: Text, response message type: None
- FTP transport: external user (I used a Service account), Post read action: archive, transfer mode: ascii, some directories needed were created in /tmp directory
- Message flow: Start node -> pipeline pairs
in request pipeline of pipeline pairs node: i created a new stage: Assign action -> Log (to get file contents, error severity) -> Assign -> Log (get file name)
The expected results are: file file content and file name (display in osb console) after I submit a text file to ftp server (using test console or ftp client)
But, some error occur continuously after I submit a text file (I can get the file content because error raise and log catch it). The error message is show below:
<Jun 6, 2011 10:04:59 AM EDT> <Error> <ALSB Logging> <BEA-000000> < [PipelinePairNode1, PipelinePairNode1_request, show_text_info, REQUEST] file contents: li

You can not use the log= clause *inside* rman, you can only use it on the shell prompt *outside* rman.

Error occured while writing cube data

Hi all,
I was working around with the manage ownership section. When i tried to change [PCON] or [POWN] values and save it, I get an error message saying "Error occurred while writing cube data". After doing some googling I found out that this was because [PCON] and [POWN] are system accounts and hence we cannot submit data to it.
Is there any way how I can resolve this issue? I have 2-3 entities which have minority and do not have 100% ownership/consolidation. Please help me out in this matter.
Regards,
Ramith

It should work, check if this helps. Page 133 http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/hfm_user.pdf
