Installer says it is corrupt.
First a little backgorund. My macbook is currently running 10.7.3. I have had numerous failed attempts to update to 10.7.4. Everytime I try and run the updater or installer it says the download is corrupt and to try downloading it again. I've tried using the "software update" feature and I have downloaded the entire 10.7.4 installer from the app store and I always end up with the same result. The same 10.7.4 installer worked perfectly on my wife's identical computer. Is there possibly something wrong with my hard drive?? I did recently have a hard drive failure and after installing a new drive was able to get 10.7.3 running but not 10.7.4.
I decided to skip 10.7.4 and just purchase the Mountain Lion update. After downloading it I get the same "corrupt" error as I did with 10.7.4. The download size was 4+ gigs so it was fully downloaded.
I happen to have a brand new, (never formatted) 640 gig drive. My question is, can I:
1. Put the new drive in my disk enclosure
2. Use Disk Utility to format it as OS Extended
3. Launch the 10.8 installer and point it at the new drive
4. Install 10.8
5. Swap it with my current internal drive
What is your operating system? What product/version are you trying to install? From where are you installing: download or install disk? What is the exact message you are getting?

Why won't my computer install firefox? It keeps saying it is corrupt.
I run a computer with windows 7. I cannot get firefox to install. It keeps stopping at 98% and saying it is corrupt.
It is possible that anti-virus software is interfering with downloading and installing.
In case you are using the small stub installer from the Mozilla site then you can use the full installer.
You can find the full version of the latest Firefox 26.0 release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:
*http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
You may have to disable your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes installing work.

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards? -

Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not
Issue with ARD 3.0 not pushing out Installs, Says its installing but not
Has anyone seen this. It seems to happen with ARD 3, have not seen this in ARD 2.
I go to the Install Packages on Target Computers, put in: 10.4.7 Combo (for the correct CPU, PPC or Intel), security updates, QT 7.1.2, etc.
Push it to Macs I can connect to, observe and control.
The progress bar copies the files (in some instances it does not) and then it just hangs there, bar does not move, Installs never finish, not good, very odd.Is it the same clients that have the problem every time? Are those clients doing anything cpu intensive? Have you tried rebooting the affected clients?
Maybe try a smaller package on those clients. -

Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
Can you launch your iTunes now? -
Download stops saying it is corrupt
Hi, Im trying to install/download cs6 production premium I have my serial number, but in the original download it gets about 15 minutes into the download and stops saying something about corrupt. I then thought maybe I have to install the software that make up production premier individually. So i began to do this, some installed others came up saying they are only trials, this is even though I put the serial number into the serial number box. What should I do I would like the package to download as a whole production premium suite
use a different browser, suspend your antivirus/antimalware and use a wired connection.

Mac installation says Safari is open, but it is not.
MPBr
OSX 10.8.3
Adobe Flash Player Version 11.7.700.169
Tried to install newest version of flash player when prompted.
Flash installer says that Safari is open and it can not continue, so I check my tasks and Safari is not open. I open safari and then close it with CMD+Q to ensure all instances are closed. This does not work.
Restart my computer to ensure that safari isn't open. Attempt installation again with fresh restart. Flash installer says that Safari is open and it can not continue.
Can not install newest version of Flash, nor can I locate information pertaining to this issue.
Any help is appreciated (assuming that it's not a problem with the latest installer which will be remedied shortly).

Mike M, your suggestion for rebooting ingores the fact that, depending how your system is set up, your computer may restart Safari on reboot, either because it was open before or because it is set as a Login item. In any case, rebooting shouldn't be necessary. Adobe used to include a utility in the installer which allowed you to force Safari to close and killed associate processes at the same time. It would save a lot of trouble if they reintroduced that. Also, there are other programs, such as FaceTab, which will cause the Flash installer to say that Safari is running (perhaps they are using WebKit).
The option to "reopen windows on restart" (meanign to restore applications) and the login items are BOTH user set. The reopening when the reboot is executed, by checkign a box specificaly to do that, and the other in the system preferences, requiring entry of the admin password before apps can be added. Anyone who has knows how to do either, would certainly know that a reboot withthe box checked would reopen Safari, and would know that they have to terminate the process manually. Most people DON'T have Safari set as a login item, however. There are some "widgets" that will try to connect through Safari, and Facetab can a f;ase positive too, but onyl if it's a login item.
It would be nice to have the force quit in the installer, but as one of the top posters in the Apple forums told me, OS X has changed since 10.6, to be more like iOS. One of the significant changes with Lion and it was refined in Mt. Lion and Mavericks, is the "Gatekeeper" which keeps apps from running if the developer can't be identified. If Apple lags on updating Gatekeeper definitions, a brand new update launching the force quit would hit a snag at that point and people would be right back here asking what to do. Not having it facilitates the install IMHO.
Currently I'm running 10.6.8, 10.7.5, 10.8.5 and 10.9 and I haven't run into the "You must close Safari" warning when it was closed. I don't use Facetab, and I only have widgets installed on my Mavericks machine. I've trashed them all on the others. -
I downloaded firefox 3.6.9 but it will not open, says it's corrupted.
Pretty simple, little icon kept popping up urging me to download the newest version of firefox, I tried twice with the same result. It seems to download just fine, but when I go to run the program it says it's corrupted and won't allow me to continue. Never had an issue upgrading before, so I really don't have any idea why it's not allowing it now.

My hard drive is corrupt even though I can listen to the music on the Ipod. Itunes says it is corrupt so obviously cannot read it properly. You can hear the disk reader resetting every few seconds preventing the data recovery.
We can see the track listings and playlists which we used for our wedding in 2005 and desperately want them back.
Sadly we lost the hard drive that had Itunes on it with all our music which we dont have a back up of.
Is there anyway it can be repaired and then we get the music off the Ipod and get it back on a new pc....and back it up of course?!!!From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod. -
