Installer with application only

Hello,
I have an applicatin file (.exe) which work only on computers with LabView.
I want to build an installer from it.
This application was done a long time ago, so I don't have the VI's or projects files. I basically want to create an installer from it and addtional device drivers so it can work on computers without Labview.
Is there a way to do it? when I start a new project and want to create a new installer - I don't have the option to select my application in source files.
thanks

I think you can technically trick an empty project into thinking it built an EXE, and then allow you to make an installer from it, but this probably won't do what you want.
If you made a project with a simple VI that does nothing and use that to make an EXE, then replace that EXE with yours, I think you could then create an installer that includes you EXE. But there maybe other problems with this because you'll have to do this in the same development environment. So it would be best if you had the same LabVIEW version, with the same DAQmx, and same MAX, and same everything else, so that when you create an installer it includes the same versions of these things under the additional installers.
Another option for you is to create your own installer. This can copy your EXE to the installed location, and run any NI installers like the run-time, DAQmx etc, silently. I've always used Inno Setup combined with ISTool but others have had success with Install Shield.

How I can reinstall OSX 10.8 with applications only? i.e No system preferences and library files from time machine

Hi there,
I would like to clean install mac os x, but I want to keep all my applications (such as photos and music from itunes etc) from a time machine backup. I am having some issues with my widgets and sleep mode, of which I have searched high and low for answers. My only resolve now is the re-install mac os, but Im afraid 4 years of use have resulted in a mess in terms of prefrence lists and everything. Is it possible to exclude the library from time machine and then reinstall mac os, with a new library, but keeping all my apps, so that in effect, it runs like new, but with all my apps?
Any help is much appreciated.

You can exclude the Library if you don't transfer your user files, so copy your user files manually to another external disk if you don't want to lose them. You can keep your applications without any problem
To restore the Time Machine backup, follow these steps:
1. Press Command and R keys while your Mac is starting, and open Disk Utility.
2. Select Macintosh HD on the sidebar, go to Erase tab and erase the disk.
3. Close Disk Utility, select the option to restore a Time Machine backup and follow the steps. When it asks you for what you want to restore, select only your applications. After restoring the backup, copy your user files back to the hard drive

Cannot launch Flash CS6 after installation with Application manager

I have recently installed the Flash CS6 trial via the application manager.
After installation I was able to run the application normally. But, the next day, obviously after restart, there is no icon inside Application manager to launh it. It only shows "installed".
When I am trying to launch the application by double clicking on it's icon in the folder where it is installed, I receive the error:
"Windows cannot access the specified device or path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."
How can I resolve this?
Thanks

I cannot use this version of the application Adobe Air Installer with this version of Mac OS X.

I have Mac OS 10.5.8 and every time I try to install Air Adobe 3 I get the message
"You cannot use this version of the application Adobe Air Installer with this version of Mac OS X."
Could anyone help me?

Hi,
Adobe won't be developing for 10.5.8 new features (including new runtime) only security relates updates for existing runtimes (Flash 10.3.*/Air 2.7.*). Flash 11/Air 3.0 are only supported on 10.6.8.*/10.7.*, see:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/916/cpsid_91694.html#main_system_requirements
There is recent, lengthy thread on forums with Adobe's employees statements on that subject (support/development for 10.5.* and newer) but I cannot find it quickly as basically forum search is broken/hard to do,

Sharepoint Permissions Application user with read only permissions

Friends,
I am trying to create a separate permission Group for an Executive(Department) Team who can access all the documents and lists in the portal with only read permissions because they need to see all the documents and lists in the libraries.
I can add them in to SP_Application_User group but i don't want them to edit the documents.
If i create a new group and set a separate permission level with read only setting, they cannot access all the documents in the document libraries and lists because some of the document libraries and lists have separate permission which overrided parent permissions.
Hope i will get help from any of you.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Chakri

Hi,
For your issue, you could add the users to Central Administration > Application Management > Policy for Web Application and grant Full Read permissions.
With the configuration, these users have Read permission to the whole web application.

Applications only for root are displayed even with user login

I am using MBP Pro with OSx 10.7.3. I use admin account. Recently I enabled root account and then disabled it back again. Since then I am seeing applications only for root and not for admin even with admin login. If I go to /Users/<admin username>/Library/Preferences, I can see that the applications has relevant files over there. When I looked more carefully I observed that, I am able to see the applications installed for the root only and not for the admin user. Is there any way to corrrect this?

AIR application installer with multiple languages

How can I distribute my AIR desktop app for Windows and OS X, with multiple languages in the installer? My app itself is completely localized, but I want the installer to be localized too. The issue is, though, that I need it to be localized into Hebrew, which isn't one of the built-in AIR languages. How can I create a custom installer with Hebrew included?
Thank you!

Hi,
Would it be possible to get the URL to the page that has your AIR badge installer (or the html if it's not publicly viewable)? We'll probably also need further info on the system that's failing, if possible could you post the installer log and check to see if the following file exists:
Win 7:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\airappinstaller\airappinstaller.exe
Mac
/Users/username/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/www.macromedia.com/bin/airappinstaller/airappinstaller
Please feel free to contact me at [email protected] if necessary.

Problem with application and storage and memory.

I NEED HELP!! I am trying to add more application s to my Blackberry Curve 8330. My problem is I don't have enough storage to even add a couple of application s and their updates to my phone. I have an 8GB media card with like 7.3GB of free space. Also, I only have 3.7MB of free space on my device. One of my questions is, How do you add things to your memory card instead of your device memory? Second thing is, if anyone decides to respond to this discussion, please use simple steps. Thanks soooo much.
~Robin

Hello!
There are three types of potential memory on a BB: 1) Application Memory, 2) Device Memory, and 3) Media/SD Card Memory
Application Memory -- This is the most crucial; it is the protected (not user accessible), dedicated, and fixed (in size) space that is available as the destination for the installation of applications (plus some application storage, overhead and such). You cannot touch AppMemory. You cannot improve the maximum AppMemory that your BB has. It is what it is. Applications can only install here...there is no option.
Device Memory -- This is space on your BB that you can touch to store files, pictures, media, etc. Typically, it is not terribly large, but it is available to you.
SD/Media Card Memory -- This is what it says...your SD card, for you to store files, media, pictures, etc. It cannot be used as the target for installing applications (only App Memory can be used for that). It can be as large as your BB OS can support...see this KB:
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB05461
On some devices/OS levels, you can only see "File Free" (Options > Status), which I think is equivalent to AppMemory. On other devices, you can see all three memory usage levels (Options > Memory). Here are some guidelines to use:
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB15345
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB14320
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB14213
Lastly, it is always important to properly close applications when you are done with them. Using the Back or the Red key will not do this -- those leave it to the app to decide what to do...and some will leave themselves resident in memory, consuming resources on your BB, slowing the overall performance. Rather, to close an app, press and select "Close" or "Exit"...that will force the application to be closed, freeing up for your new use the resources it was consuming. Some apps will always remain running (typically -- BBMessenger, Browser, Homescreen, Phone, and Messages)...but, you should still close them properly - especially the Browser...if it is left on an active web page, it will not only consume extra resources but battery power as well.
Further, anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure. Some have taken to doing this on a regular basis as a preventive measure...some as frequently as once per day. Others have obtained the QuickPull app to automate a simulated Batt-Pull.
Best!
Good luck!

Photoshop CS 6 repeatedly launching, conflict with Application Manager

I am now getting multiple systems that will not open Photoshop CS 6. As soon as PS starts to open, Application Manager starts and prevents PS from opening. The two applications alternate for control with neither being able to open. This problem is also occurring with Illustrator CS 6 and now has started in Photoshop.
When the "fight" starts you have to do a forced shut down (power button for 10 seconds) in order to be able to login. Then Uninstalling the application, either by the Uninstaller of PS or by using the ELA uninstaller created when the Install package is created. Systems are Apple 10.8.2 with Adobe Application Manager Enterprise Created installer for Master Suite.
This has now appeared on six or seven systems of the approximatly 200 that got the install. The applications ran normally with no problems for about two weeks bu now the problems are popping up for no appearent reason.

Thank you for the video. It is exactly what has been reported by me and some others in the Illustrator forum also. To me a "crash" is when a program fails to open properly and requires a forced power off to recover the computer. I will add that the same problem as shown will appear again as soon as Photoshop (or Illustrator if that is the broken program) is reopened. The problem will remain until PS (or AI) is uninstalled and reinstalled. The version I have for the installer is the older 13.1 but that had worked for several weeks and this problem just started recently and I had not installed (at least knowingly) any changed software be it PS, AI or AAM. prior to that time. I did have some systems at the latest update and at least one of those failed also.
I have tried creating an Update package from AAMEE but the package that is created does not install using Apple Remote Desktop nor does it install if the created package is copied to the desktop of the system I am trying to update.
It is looking to me like the problem is located in the Adobe Application Manager since that app is common to both Photoshop and Illustrator. I have tried using the AAM that installs as part of the Master Suite and the first thing it does is update itself. My guess is that this "update" that AAM self-installs is broken and is causing the problem. That is only my guess based on my observations. Perhaps someone can come up with a way to prove or disprove my guess.
My next project for tomorrow will be to try to create a brand new installer with all updates since trying to individually use the Update button in the actual Photoshop does work but I'll be damned if I am going to visit two hundred seperate machines to have to install the update on each and every system as a stand alone update, especially since I have already had at least one system that I know was on the latest update but still failed in exactly the way your video shows.
A follow up will be to try to remove the AAM and reinstall a new version from the Adobe web site just to see if that helps, hurts or has no discernable effect.

The device has encountered an unexpected error. Installation error: application verification failed

the device has encountered an unexpected error. Installation error: application verification failed
I have been receiving this message over and over again when trying to publish my iOS app for the app store (I use Flash cc AIR 3.9.1.1080 for iOS and my settings are: "device testing in interpreter mode", as my app uses several swfs).
I have done everything from scratch, as recommended on other sections of the forums: new app ID from my apple developer account, new Distribution Certificates, new Distribution Provisioning Profiles and nothing works.
I can install my app on my iPad if I use the development Certificate and Provisioning Profile and everything seems OK. But as soon as I use the Distribution Certificate and Provisioning Profile get the same message:
the device has encountered an unexpected error. Installation error: application verification failed
I have done everything from the beggining over and over and nothing works. Am I the only one having this issue on Flash cc???

Hi Daniel:
I´m far from being an expert on Xcode (or any code) but this is what I did and it worked:
- On Xcode go to Preferences > Accounts > select your App Developer Account, then click "view details" on the lower right corner.
- There you can see which of your "Signing Identities" (Certificates) are "Valid". You should have at least one for Development and one for Distribution.
- Below that window there are two icons which you can use to add, export or revoke a "Signing Identitie" (Certificate).
- Choose the one you want to use (Develop. or Distrib.), export it to the folder of the app you are working on and name it in such a way you can relate it to your app. Before knowing this I was exporting them using Keychain Access and I wasn´t naming them to differentiate each one properly.
- On your Apple Developer account create the Provisioning Profile for your app. I deleted any App IDs or Prov. Profs. which were useless.
- Then on my Apple Developer account I generated a Development Prov. Prof. to install and test my app on my iPad. All went fine.
- Then an Ad Hoc Prov. Prof. again to install and test my app on my iPad. All went fine.
- Then I generated the App Store Prov. Prof. and I was able to install the app on my device without the upsetting error.
- Then I uploaded the app to iTunes Connect with no problem.

Building installer with 8.5

I have built an application with Labview 8.5 and am trying to build an installer with the 8.5 runtime engine for a stand alone program. However the exe builds okay, but when I try to build the installer I get a message saying some components need to be load from real-time module 8.6.1 and it asks for the directory of the nist.id. I am not using any real time in my application. It seems as though this started popping up after I installed Labview 8.6. Anyone have any Ideas.
Regards,
Wade

Thanks for the Reply and link. I just placed the Labview disk in the disk drive and selected that directory so the installer builder could locate the file it was looking for, and then cached it. However I am curious as to why all of the sudden it needs the real time module 8.6.1. If my only additional installer is RT engine 8.5. Before I upgrade to NI DAQ 8.8 that came with LV 8.6 I hadn't gotten this request for the RT Module components while only requesting the RT engine for an additional installer. Anyways its no big deal now that I have the file cached. It doesn't ask anymore. Thanks.

Sidecar installation with Adobe AIR 1.5.3

Hi all,
I'm having some difficulty with a sidecar installation with AIR 1.5.3. I've followed the steps in the runtime redistribution pdf (especially the section "Using the bundled runtime installer") but no luck yet. Here's my scenario:
1. Building the application with the 3.4 flex sdk (the distribution says that Adobe AIR 1.5.2 is included with the 3.4 version of the flex sdk)
2. Downloaded the AIR_Mac_installer_files.dmg from http://www.adobe.com/products/air/runtime_distribution3.html.
3. Renamed the installer to match my application's name.
4. Created a .airinstall.cfg file which included my application's name.
5. Double clicked on the installer file, but I don't get anything. No prompt for installing the AIR application.
This is running on MAC OSX 10.5.7. My "bundled runtime installer directory" looks like:
-rw-r--r-- 1 seanoshea staff 16 Dec 14 18:26 .airinstall.cfg
drwxr-xr-x 3 seanoshea staff 102 Dec 14 17:38 Eye-Fi-Center Installer.app
-rw-r--r-- 1 seanoshea staff 3171146 Dec 14 18:21 Eye-Fi-Center.air
Any ideas on where I'm going wrong here?
Sean

Hi there Ted,
In summary, there are three scenarios which I'm testing on each platform:
1. Installation of the application where the user does not have an AIR runtime previously installed.
2. Installation of the application where the user has an AIR runtime installed.
3. Installation of the application where the user has an AIR runtime installed and has a version of our application installed too (basically this is the update scenario)
I have a bootstrapper application which will be invoking the installer, so I understand I do not need to rename the Adobe AIR installer .exes or .app files.
On Windows XP, the command I'm invoking is shown in Picture 4.png. Basically, I'm invoking the AdobeAIRInstaller.exe file, passing a -silent flag and the name of the application I'm trying to install. This command works fine for scenarios 1 and 2 above. However, if I use this command when I try to update an existing application, I get this error:
Starting silent x1 install from file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/air/Eye-Fi%20Center.air
UI SWF load is complete
stateRunningAppInstaller: appinstaller -runtime C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\AIR1C.tmp -silent -withRuntime -url file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/air/Eye-Fi%20Center.air
App installer failed; exit code 9
begin quitting
The permissions problem I was running into in my previous post on Windows Vista is a false alarm. I wasn't running the cmd application with admin rights (despite the fact that I was logged into the OS as an admin). Running cmd.exe as an admin solved that issue.
So, I'm only stuck on the update scenario. Same thing happens on mac when I try to install on a system where Adobe AIR is already installed and the application is installed too. The .airinstall.log file shows:
Starting silent x1 install from file:///Users/seanoshea/Downloads/center-mac/Eye-Fi%20Center.air

App installer failed; exit code 9
begin quitting
The .airappinstall.log shows:

Please give me your valuable suggestions. Which are shall i configure .
Thanks & Regards,
Badri

Hi Badri,
ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory is for clients which got deployed inside OC4J container..
For looking up EJB from a stand alone java client please use RMIInitialContextFactory..So please change ur code....
Also please check ur server.xml
Since you have specified your ejb domain as "sampledemo"
you have to use that domian only for look up..But it seems that you are looking up for "Demo" domain instead of "sampledemo" domain...So change your code to reflect that..
Code snippet for the same is :
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put("java.naming.provider.url", "ormi://localhost/sampledemo");
env.put("java.naming.factory.initial", "om.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "guest");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "welcome");
Context ic = new InitialContext (env);
Hope this helps
