Installer unable to validate contents of Additional Speech Voices

Trying to upgrade my G5 tower from 10.4.11 to 10.5. I have tried an Upgrade and finally Archive and Install, deselecting Additional Fonts and most of the Printer Drivers that I don't use. It always fails with this similar message. "The installer could not validate the contents of the "AdditionalSpeechVoices" package. Contact the software manufacture for assistance. Please restart and install again.
Any suggestions?

After the language page of the installer pull down the Utilities menu at the top and select System Profiler. In the sidebar on the left, select Memory. It may say a bank of RAM is empty that your know has RAM in it, or some message that the RAM is bad.
If so, try removing the additional RAM chip and installing again. If it installs Leopard, you can replace the RAM (after shutting down, unplugging, etc., of course).

Install fails 10.5 could not validate contents additional speech voices

I am trying to install 10.5 on a G5 I get the message install fails could not validate contents of the additionalspeechvoices package, is there a way to fix this?

It is a black retail retail disk,
Didnt have any troubles with installing it the first time, then the Maxtor hard drive went bad, installed it to a new drive and didnt have any troubles untill recently, but tried to reinstall again, but get the message install fails could not validate contents of the additionalspeechvoices package, now. It gets to about 4 minutes left then quits with the error message.

Installer unable to validate security update- help please

i keep getting installer unable to install...security updates 2010-03/quicktime updates and so on. Why is this happening and how can i fix it. I have tried Onyx and clean my mac to try and clean up files in hopes it will randomly update and fix. im getting frustrated right now and I need some advise and direction. Onyx says my volume is ok.

Move all the files that have softwareupdate in their title out of your user's /Library/Preferences/ and ByHost subfolder, restart, and try again. If that doesn't do it, then boot with your Leopard install disk and reinstall it, selecting the Archive & Install, saving user and network settings, option. If that fixes the issue, run Software Update and bring the OS back up to 10.5.8. If not, then I'm out of ideas.

Installer could not validate...

I was using software update to get 10.5.8 and the garageband update but when the files were downloaded and about to be installed, I received the error message: "installer could not validate contents of the (garageband/10.5.8) package".
I have looked on other discussion topics and saw that repairing disk permissions often solved the problem, but it didn't do anything for me. When I repair disk permissions I get a bunch of "permissions differ..." messages but at the bottom it says "permissions repair complete".
Also, I tried downloading the updates directly from the apple website (including the combo update for 10.5.8) but those were both unable to be validated when they were downloaded
Is there something wrong with software update or my computer?
I don't have this problem downloading any other type of file
anything else i can do?

help plz?

Installation: hello, I am trying to install my adobe elements twelve. I have a serial number, which contains no letters (only numbers), from the box. I use a mac. When I try to install it, it says it's unable to validate my serial number. I have already checked the spelling. What should I do?

Does it begin with 1057? If not, it's a redemption code. In which case, see here:
Redemption Code Help
If it is a serial number, go to system preferences>security & privacy>firewall>firewall options and be sure that PSE is allowed to call out.

After installation it says unable to validate this serial number for Acrobat Pro XI. Why? What do I do?

I received my serial number online and went through the installation process. After it was successfully installed I wend to open Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and followed the prompt to enter my serial number and then received this error message "We are unable to validate this serial number for Adobe Acrobat Pro XI. Please Contact Customer Support."
I've read several FAQ and troubleshooting discussions but none have touched specifically on this.
I would have called customer support but did not see a number to call.
Does anyone know what exactly is wrong or what I can do to resolve the issue?

Installer could not validate the contents of the "BaseSystem"

Reference the quite volumnious "Installer could not validate the contents of the 'BaseSystem'".
Given the dual-layer DVD inserted in a single-layer SuperDrive fact, I tried installing just the Base System with nothing else and got the same error. On the surface, this may indicate that even the BaseSystem is spread out between both layers.
Has anyone tried making a DVD/CD Master sparse image, cloning it to a spare partition, restarting the Mac from this partition and installing Leopard on another partition or other drive? I got this idea from the indispensable "Macfixit.com" web site.
Would that totally eliminate trying to install an OS from a double-layer DVD in a single-layer Drive?
So I am trying to determine if anyone has been successful using this image approach.

If the drive couldn't read DL DVDs, DVD Player would have trouble with most movies. There may be some burned DL DVDs that won't work in some drives, but factory pressed DL disks, such as Leopard, (if not defective) should be readable in any DVD drive. There may be defective discs, or defective drives, but a DL drive is not a requirement. The DL for a DVD drive only applies to its burning capability, not its reading capability.

"-unable to validate this serial number-" – Moving CS6 software to new employee

We just had a member of our team leave for a new job who we had upgraded from CS6 to CC a few months ago. We've been trying to install his "old" copy of CS6 on a new employee's machine using their (new) company Adobe ID but when entering the serial number during installation we get the following message:
"We are unable to validate this serial number for CS6 Design and Web Premium. Please contact Customer Support."
Trouble is, when going through CS6 CS there doesn't seem to be any direct contact for CS (no phone, no chat). Is the serial number still tied to his work Adobe ID? If so, how can we deactivate that so as to re-open the license for a fresh install?

As far as I know (I do not work for Adobe) a serial number is "tied" to the person who activated it... so you are going to need to DE-activate by logging in on the old computer with the old ID
Then, to use that serial number with a new person, I **think** you will need to do a license transfer (you may be able to just activate with a new ID, but I really don't know)

" Cannot validate contents " error message

I have tried several times to download software updates available ( Java, Security 2011-11 and i tunes) and am getting the error message "Installer cannot validate contents, contact manufacturer". I've tried downloading directly from apple website and got the same message. I have verified permissions and repaired permissions, tried again and got the same message. I also got an error message when I tried to update Adobe this morning. Any help would be appreciated.

What that means is the disc image cannot be verified usually because it is damaged in some way or is a defective download. You might try re-downloading again (I know you already have) until you are able to get a "good" result. Of course if the file is damaged on the server then you will never get a good result.
If your network connection is slow (telephone modem) then these downloads are far to large for regular success. Line glitches, even one, can render the resulting file worthless. Other network related problems can corrupt file downloads.
Last consider repairing the hard drive (not permissions which have nothing to do with the problem.) If your hard drive has problems then it may not be saving the downloads properly.
Repair the Hard Drive
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Just bought Lightroom 6 through B&H Photo Video online and now Adobe says it is "unable to validate this serial number for Lightroom". Any help for me here folks?

Just bought Lightroom 6 through B&H Photo Video online and now Adobe says it is "unable to validate this serial number for Lightroom". Any help for me here folks?

If you want to buy the product Lightroom 6.0 from the Adobe Website, then please visit here-
http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/software._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software _sl_mostpopular.html
And scroll down to the bottom and spot the Lightroom 6.0 to buy the standalone application.
You can buy the application as an upgrade or full product (second red box in the screen shot shows the previous version of the software you own and needed to be selected if you are buying the upgrade Lightroom 6.0 ) in case you have the previous version ( Lightroom 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ) serial number registered or noted somewhere.
Here is the screenshot which might help you in buying the product correctly,
You can visualize the first red box where you need to select on the drop down to make the purchase as an upgrade product or the full version of the application.
If you have the qualifying product ( Lightroom 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ), then it would cost you just $79 else $149 in case of full installer.
Try, it might help you get over the plight of buying the product.
Thank you so much.

Unable to Validate Muse Subscription - fixes not working

I have the same problem that others have had with the error message "Unable to validate your Adobe Muse subscription. We haven't been able to validate your Adobe Muse subscription for some time. If you don't connect to the internet in the next few days, Adobe Muse will no longer be able to launch."
I subscribed to Muse in Dec. 2012 & have been billed monthly successfully for the last couple months, however I recently changed the card number to be charged - could that be the issue?
I am not signed up for Creative Cloud, which one of the discussion solutions seemed to mention, so might that be part of the problem? But if so, why now after a couple months with no issues?
Where the error message mentions connecting to the internet, I'm not sure what that means or how to do that - does that have something to do with Cloud?
I'm building a new site & we're not yet ready to publish, so we aren't ready for hosting, but I'm hoping that is not part of the issue?
I've tried some of the solutions posted in discussions (e.g., deleting certain folders & files), but before I uninstall/reinstall Muse, I'm hoping someone can help. I'm down to 1 day on the clock, so I'm hoping not to be shut out of Muse.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem this week. Amy via @AdobeMuse on Twitter sent me this solution:
http://helpx.adobe.com/muse/kb/error-unable-validate-your-muse.html
In following the steps provided in this URL, I discovered that somehow the Firewall in Norton Security Suite had been set to block Muse, although all the other Adobe CC products were set to "Allow" in the Norton firewall.
By changing "Block" to "Allow," Muse now opens fine, but fair warning: I lost all the Muse sites I had been working on by following the other steps in this URL.
I suggest that the first step in the instructions in this URL should be changed to: check your firewall first to see if Muse has been blocked. If I had done that first, it appears that I would not have lost 10 months of work.

My iMac is authorised to play iTunes content, but my Apple TV keeps asking for me to authorise. I am unable to view content from my iTunes Library. How can I convince my Apple TV that I am authorised?

My iMac is authorised to play iTunes content, but my Apple TV keeps asking for me to authorise and I am unable to view content from my iTunes Library. How can I convince my Apple TV that I am authorised?

I am not exactly sure what you mean by "authorised", but I am experiencing a similar problem...or the same, in that Apple TV keeps telling me to enable home sharing in my MacBook Pro. It does not seem to recognize that home sharing is already enabled on my Laptop.
Is home sharing and "authorised" one in the same? It used to work just fine before these recent Apple TV updates.
