Installing DW problems

I have an older version of DW MX 2004, 7.0.1.2181 and have
tried to install on my MacBook running 10.5.5. I have tried using
my old PowerBook as a target drive and copying the application
files to the MacBook but DW wouldn't launch and then I used the DW
installation disk and installed the software but DW still won't
launch.
Is it because my version DW is too old for the 10.5.5 system?
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thank you!

Thanks, Ken,
I had two separate "chats" with Adobe support people. I cannot find any record of these now, although they both stated that they would escalate this problem and that I would receive email. Nothing received after over ten days. I also submitted a question directly to Adobe regarding my inability to retrieve my serial number. I even attached a screen shot of the existing "About" pop-up I get on the computer when clicking on the "About" under GoLive CS.
Further insight, I am using Mac OS X 10.4 on laptop 1 and Mac OS X 10.6.8 on 2 and 3.
I expected some responses from Adobe but am so far without any. Maybe I've been submitting my requests for some assistance to the wrong places... ? Thanks for any suggestions.

When trying to uninstall iTune (because the current install has problems), I get the error message 2324. What should I do to reinstall the application?

When trying to uninstall iTune (because the current install has problems; iTune error message states it cannot sync and that I should reinstall the application; also, it fails when I tried to upgrade to the latest release), I get the error message 2324. What should I do to reinstall the application?

That installer error is a "Can't open file" error
It suggest that you may have a corrupt file.
Try running a disk check
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Check-a-drive-for-errors
If it fixes errors try uninstalling iTunes again.
If that doesn't work, is it possible for find out the name of the problem file, is further information available? Try looking in your Action center - that's on the control panel. Another place is in the Windows Error logs. From the start menu , right click on "Computer" and select manage, then Event viewer.
If nothing emerges, try a manual uninstall of iTunes and related programs according to this method:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Don't worry if an uninstall fails, that is expected. Go on to the part where you have to delete files (2. Verify iTunes etc completely deleted) . Hopefully you manage to find a file that can't be deleted, that is the one we will need to deal with.

CS1 Install/Uninstall Problems ?

I can't uninstall CS1, nor can can I reinstall Photoshop from CS1, which is presently not installed. My OS is Windows Vista Home Premium. I am out of warranty and Adobe will not provide suppport. I have read all I can find about FLEXnet licensing suspecting there is a connection. When I try to either install or uninstall CS1, I get an error message from Microsoft saying that "Adobe CS1 installer has stopped working". There is no other information unless I open the Adobe File folder for Photoshop from CS1 that I saved to my desktop. I can initiate the install procedure from that folder, but when prompted for the original product serial number a message states that the serial number I have provided is invalid. I have talked with Adobe however, and their records indicate that I have a valid serial number.
I have gone to "Services" using the administrative tools in the control panel and tried setting FLEXnet Licensing on manual, then on automatic, and finally disabling it temporarily. I have gone to the Start Up menu on the desktop and entered "msconfig" in the search box and gone to services where FLEXnet was at first "stopped" and is now "running".
On some forums there are recommendations to first copy and save FLEXnet to another area of the hard drive, then delete it altogether from its original location, and then uninstall ALL Adobe software in the computer before reinstalling everything. Other contributors strongly caution the removal of FLEXnet, and some users have complained of ongoing problems after deleting FLEXnet. Firstly, I'm not sure I can figure out how to copy and save FLEXnet to another drive, and secondly I'm afraid of the possible results. Even if I can accomplish those tasks I don't know if that procedure will then allow me to either uninstall the portion of CS1 still in my computer, or reinstall the Photoshop that presently won't install. By the way, all the CS1 programs that remain in my computer are operational. Photoshop is the only missing component.
I am not well versed in technology, and much that I read in the forums is only partially comprehensible to me. If you have the patience and knowledge to help me unravel this mess I would love your help. Thanks. Harrison

Thank you Bob. It was very nice of you to write. I have been using CS1 with Vista since Vista came out. I'm aware that compatibility is considered a significant issue. Fortunately, I never had any problems until now, although I would have replaced CS1 with a more recent and compatible version if money were not part of the equation for me.
Adobe told me that if I bought the CS5 they would help me straighten out any issues now caused by the CS1, but otherwise they would not help. I did not think to ask if Adobe has designed CS5 to be compatible with Vista, but I will. I may buy the more recent version out of necessity, but it does not seem unreasonable to me that Adobe should help someone with a valid serial and registration number access their software regardless of warranties. The problem at hand seems to be a glitch in the licensing application provided by FLEXnet that I presume protects Adobe from unauthorized use of their products. I am wondering how much this situation actually has to do with system compatibility, given that I have been using the software for roughly two years with Vista, or whether it is simply that Adobe's FLEXnet licensing shield can work against legitimate users under certain circumstances. Adobe did not mention FLEXnet to me, but I would like to know one way or the other if FLEXnet is at the core of the problem.
Thank you again Bob for writing. I may wipe my OS clean and reload everything. I suspect the CS1 might work then, but I do realize that CS1 is old by technological standards, in spite of the fact that I would gladly continue to use it. I am among those people that find the cost of keeping current very difficult, and I find it exasperating that so many products and services become obsolete very rapidly when considering their relative cost. Have a nice weekend.
Best Regards,
Harrison

Hello, i own an i7 all in one mac. I tried to partition him using bootcamp but didn't have mac os cd neither mac instalation. the problem i am dealing now its that i cant go back to OS partition since its not appeared when i restart c and no win drivers

I tried to partition him using bootcamp but didn't have mac os cd neither mac instalation. the problem i am dealing now its that i cant go back to OS partition since its not appeared when i restart c and no win drivers to have a properly running system. I've thought as an option to re-download boot-camp and run the instalation from windows partition and see if i can repair it that way, didnt try yet thought just in case anyone has a better prposition or dealed with the same problem

Take it to your local Apple Store or AASP, it's covered by a 1 year hardware warranty. If you have AppleCare then give them a call but I'm pretty sure they will advise the same. If you have not purchased AppleCare yet please do, this will extend the warranty to 3 years however it MUST be purchased within the first year of ownership. Let it go 366 days and you are out of luck. AppleCare will also include telephone support too.
Good luck.

New Install: dbca problem on ubuntu 10.04

Hello List,
I want to install Oracle 11gR2 on my Ubuntu box which is running 10.04 Lucid:
oracle@z2:~/oh$ cat /etc/issue

oracle@z2:~/oh$ uname -a

The above command suggests to me that I am running 32bit Linux.
I downloaded the 32bit Oracle cdroms.
I read this link:
- http://www.pythian.com/news/13291/installing-oracle-11gr2-enterprise-edition-on-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/
I carefully followed the instructions there.
The instructions there are for 64 bit Linux. Like I said, my box is 32bit.

I found no clues in Google.
So, I look for clues here.
Does anyone have any ideas on how do debug this error from dbca:

Adobe AIR Seamless Install Badge PROBLEM

Hello,
my air badge installation stop working few days back (do not know exactly how many).
Has anybody else this issue here?
Any advice probably.
Thanks

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the Reply.
After quite a bit more testing and some digging around under the hood, I've solved the problem. Below is what I found out, hopefully this will help others out with the same problem:
When downloading Air and the Air app in one go using the install badge, trying to open an SQL connection was throwing errors on most machines (it was not limited to Macs alone). If i down loaded Air separately, then installed the app with install badge (with air already installed) it worked on some machines.
The error was caused by trying to create the database file at the wrong in the file system:
// Causes Errors some machines.
var dbFile:File =File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath (databaseName);
// Works fine.
var dbFile:File =File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath (databaseName);
I'm not sure why the different installation process showed up the errors on some machines and not others, but it's fixed now.
Hope this helps.

HP 3550 re-installation problems

WIN XP-sp3 on Compaq DC5750, 3GB Ram, larger hard drive, no other problems.
Had a crash a few months ago and d/l (from HP site) drivers for my Deskjet 3550... that worked swell, except they were in Spanish!
So, tonite I decided to d/l the ENU verzion from HP and install the drivers so the printer and I spoke the same language... And the fun began.
The instructions were to d/l the package, put it in a certain directory on the C:/ drive (which I did) then connect the USB cord to the printer and when the install wizard appeared, tell it not to search, direct the program to the directory/exe file and sit back and watch the printer work.
Nope.
I already was connected to the computer and figured the re-install would just over-write the existing drivers.
Nope.
Tried to print a test page and the test page simply hung up... Nothing happened. So I tried to delete the test page.... Even less happened.
Seems no matter what I try to do now I can't get there.
Thought I'd delete the printer entirely, unplug it and go with instructions "A"... 'cept that the print spooler is STILL trying to print that bloody test page, even if I restart the box (several times) to kick it out. As a result, the following happens:
Can't go to "printers and Faxes" and delete the drivers, 'cos the printer is "in use by another program", even tho it's disconnected from the computer at present. I assume that that means the drivers are still trying to print that test page......................(Remember the test page?)................but with no discernable result.
Now, to add insult to injury, the silly buggar is asking for "hpfmom09.hlp" from the HP installation CD. If only I KNEW where the (censored) CD had got to, we'd not be reading this drivel, innit?
I'm a bit puzzled as to how to fix this, short of 3 ounces of Geglinite or resorting to a restore point para printar en espanol...
So, O My Droogies, what hast thou that thou wouldst recommend to your wayward Brother?
(I DO like the Geglinite, but Guy Fawkes is a ways off yet...)

Hmmmm.... no help? I'm still speaking Spanish with the printer but I seem to have solved (don't ask me how) the other problems.
I'd REALLY like to get this thing back to speaking English, however.
Any thoughts at all would be appreciated!

9.2.2 install/move problem with G4 QS 2002

I have a G4 QS 2002 with two 500GB HD's. One is partitioned into six unequal partitions, Leopard, Tiger, Panther, System 8.6 - 9.2.2, Yellow Dog, and Scratch. The Leopard has a bootable System 9.2.2 and as soon I have 10.5 in my hands AND my problem is solved, will have the Leopard OS installed. The other HD has one very small emergency partition that was created by the installation of TechTool Pro with 10.3.9 and one "large" partition.
My problem is: 10.5 doesn't support/have the "Classic Environment" and I don't want to risk screwing up having a bootable 9.2.2 OS by the 10.5 installation, so I'd like to have the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition be able to boot 9.2.2 instead but I haven't been able to achieve that yet.
What I've tried is:
1. Booted into 9.2.2 and attempted to do a copy but when booted into 9.2.2, it doesn't "see" the target partition because I don't let it reformat the partitions that it doesn't recognize such as the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition when I boot into 9.2.2, so that partition and a few others are not mounted when I boot into 9.2.2 (I might let it reformat it if I can be sure which of the partitions it wants to reformat is which).
2. I created an image of the 9.2.2 bootable partition with Tiger's Disk Utility and tried to restore it with the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition as the target. It didn't want to do that. I booted with the Tiger install DVD and restored the bootable 9.2.2 image to the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition (selected the "Erase target" option). I restarted the Mac and I notice that the restored system folder is not graphically "blessed". I can choose the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition as the startup disk but it won't boot and instead the Mac eventually boots another OS. If I restart and hold down the option key, I can see that there are two bootable volumes labeled "Leopard", the original one and the restored one which in the Finder and Disk Utility is labeled "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" but it won't boot with the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition that way either.
3. I put the special version of the QS 2002 specific System 9 install CD into the DVD drawer, restart, and held down the "C" key, but the Mac eventually booted another OS. I booted into 9.2.2 and tried to launch the install SW but it couldn't see the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition (see #1 above) and neither could any of the System 9 disk utilities with the CD. I boot Tiger, launch "Classic Environment" and try to run the installer but after a few screens it complains regardless if I let it do a clean install or update the restored 9.2.2 from the Leopard partition.
The options I think I have at this time are:
1. Boot into 9.2.2 and let it reformat the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition if I can determine which partition it is and try the various steps again hoping that one will work.
2. Install 10.5 into the Leopard partition and hope that it doesn't screwup the ability to boot 9.2.2 afterwards.
3. Install 10.5 into the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition, which is half the size of the Leopard/Tiger/Panther partitions, and live with the smaller size (or try a partition utility like iPartition, DiskStudio, or hope that the DU with 10.5 can resize partitions without really deleting them first).
4. Do what I did originally, locate my System 9 install CD, see if I can still boot with it and install a generic System 9 into the "System 8.6 - 9.2.2" partition and update the SW with the QS 2002 specific System 9 install CD so it is bootable.
5. Try a cloning utility like CCC, SuperDuper, etc. and hope it works better than creating an image and restoring it (isn't that how Apple intends for us to do backups and recoveries?).
6. Back up everything even though making images doesn't seem to be foolproof, repartition the HD and reinstall/restore (I don't like this since I don't seem to have the image/restore process working to my liking and this would take a very long time (maybe 10.6 will be shipping by the time I'm done but I doubt if it Apple will support G4's with 10.6)).
OR somebody tells me what I'm doing wrong or why my efforts don't work or what is the process that achieves my end state.
TIA.

Hi, barubin -
If a volume (volume = an unpartitioned drive, or a partition of a partitioned one) does not mount when the machine is booted to OS 9, this usually means the drive or the volume does not have OS 9 drivers installed. This usually results when the drive was last formatted using OSX's Disk Utility to initialize the drive, and the option to install OS 9 drivers was not selected.
Article #106849 - Disk Is Available in Mac OS X But Not in Mac OS 9
If a volume does not mount when the machine is booted to OS 9, then OS 9 can not be installed on it using an OS 9 Install CD (since it is not available to, can not be 'seen' by, the installer app); and it can not be used as an OS 9 boot volume (if OS 9 can not mount the volume, then OS 9 on it can not mount itself).
The above article suggests one possibile way to recover from that without re-initializing the drive - boot the machine to OS 9, run Drive Setup. Select the drive in question (Drive Setup can not do this for a single partition of a partitioned drive), then choose Update Driver from the Functions menu. Note that this is a non-destructive function - no data will be lost from the drive whether or not it works. If it does work, the drive, and its partitions, will then be mounted on the desktop.
Unfortunately that recovery method rarely works, and it then becomes necessary to redo the partition or the drive.
This can be done using OS 9's Drive Setup, but only on a whole-drive basis - Drive Setup can not re-initialize a single partition of a partitioned drive.
It can also be done using OSX's Disk Utility; Disk Utility may be able to redo a single partition of a drive (I don't use OSX so can not test that), but it is probable you would need to redo the entire drive. Be sure to select the option to install OS 9 drivers when using Disk Utility - that option is not always selected by default.
In either case select Mac OS Extended as the format.
<hr>
OS 9 has a boot limitation - the volume it is on can not exceed 200GB. 190GB is a safe max volume size to pick for an OS 9 boot volume when partitioning a drive.
<hr>
The installation of OSX (any version) on an OS 9 boot volume should have no effect on the OS 9 install or its bootability, provided the install method is a simple installation (no Archive and Erase, etc.).
<hr>
It is not necessary to use a cloning utiity to move/copy OS 9 to a different volume or drive, and have it be usable. OS 9 can be installed -
• From an Install disk valid for the machine
• Or by doing a simple Finder copy of it - drag the OS 9 Syatem Folder (and its associated folders, such as Applications (Mac OS 9) and Documents) to the target volume and let go, letting Finder copy it there.
Usually a copied OS 9 System Folder is usable immediately.
Occasionally it will arrive unblessed - it will not display the Mac OS glyph on top of the folder icon. The solution for that is to re-bless it. This can be done one of two ways (best done while booted to OS 9) -
• Open the System Folder, double-click the file System to open it. Close System; close the System Folder.
• Drag the files Finder and System out of the System Folder; close the System Folder. Drop the files Finder and System back into the closed System Folder.

Windows XP mode with Virtual PC will not install / two problems

Hello! I posted this on the Microsoft Windows Answers forums and a moderator there suggested I post it here instead. I also searched here for similiar problems but did not find anyone having the exact same problem as I am having. Also for
some reason it won't let me post links, so I had to remove them.
I have Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) and I want to follow the instructions here:
LINK REMOVED
to install and run Virtual PC so I can see if some legacy XP software I have will work.
I am using a Lenovo W520 laptop with an i7 at 2.4ghz with 8GB of RAM.
I followed step 1/step 2 and downloaded the 500MB file for Windows XP Mode. I installed it.
Problem #1: There's a note at the bottom of the page which says "Once you have installed Windows XP Mode, click the Windows 7 Start button then select All Programs > Windows Virtual PC > Windows XP Mode to begin setup. For information on how
to set up Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP Mode, check out "Running Windows XP Mode with Windows Virtual PC" on the Support and Videos page. "
I am looking at the All Programs view and there's absolutely nothing which says "Windows Virtual PC" or "Windows XP Mode". I go look at Programs and Features in the control panel and indeed, Windows XP mode is installed (and taking up 1.13GB).
I uninstall it and re-download the 500mb file and re-install it. It still doesn't show up in the All Programs view, doesn't add an icon to my desktop or quick launch bar, or do anything which suggests a way to start it. It resides in C:\Program
Files\Windows XP Mode, but there are no executeable files there.
Problem #2: Step 3 says "Download Windows Virtual PC". When I click on that button, the download starts, but never works (I tried multiple times, including after a clean reboot, with nothing except Internet Explorer running) ; I get an error
window which says:
"Windows Update Standalone Installer
Installer encountered an error: 0x80070422
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it."
What is going wrong?
Thanks.
Note; After posting this questio on Windows Answers, some related questions popped up and I read through them. One post points to a posting on the Sevenforums ->LINK REMOVED which suggests that Problem #2 is my real problem because I follow
along perfectly until step #5-E and then I get the 0x80070422 error message.

Problem 2 is the issue, without installing a virtualization program like WVPC, XP Mode can't be used.
Try this:
Method 1:
I would suggest you to follow the steps and check.
To start the Windows Installer service in Windows 7 checks the steps below.
a) Click on start.
b) Type Services.msc in the start search bar and press enter.
c) Scroll down and Double-click on the service named "Windows Installer".
d) Check the value in the 'Startup type:' field.
e) If it's currently set to "Disabled", then this could cause the issue.
f) Change it by selecting "Manual" from the drop-down box.
Method 2:
Step 1: Make sure Volume Shadow Copy Service is set to automatic and started. To do this, follow these steps:
a) Click on Start-Run, type services.msc, the click on OK.
b) When the Services window loads, navigate to the “Volume Shadow Copy Service ", the double click on it to open it,
c) Make sure the "Startup Type" says "Automatic" and
started. If it doesn't, use the drop down menu to change it.
d) If it already says: "Automatic", then click on the "Recovery" tab at the top, and change the "First Failure" line to "Restart the Service", then click on "apply", then OK.
Step 2: Run Check disk to fix any bad sectors on the hard drive.
a. Click on start and in the start search bar type CMD, right click on the command prompt icon in the programs area and then click on run as administrator.
b. At the command prompt type chkdsk /f and then press enter.
Now, type in chkdsk /r
Note: CHKDSK would try to recover bad sectors on the hard disk, during this process there are chances of DATA loss from that particular sector.
Step 3: Disable the security software and then start the backup; follow the steps mentioned in the link below
Disable-antivirus-software
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Disable-antivirus-software
Important: Enable the security software back once everything is done.

Hi,
I pulled a solution off this doc. Let me know if it helped.
Solutions
You can ignore this error and launch the products you were installing.
The CS5.5 installer correctly skips installing its older Flash Player components. However, it incorrectly reports an error at the end of the installation process.
Try to launch Flash Professional. If it launches successfully, then no installation error actually occurred. The error message is false and there is no impact to functionality.
Important: If you have any additional problems with the installation or launching products, another error could have occurred. For help identifying with these other errors, see Troubleshoot CS5 and CS5.5 installation with install logs (cpsid_84451).

Itunes 7 fails to install - QuickTime problem.

I successfully used an earlier Itunes with an Ipod 1GB Nano. My new 2GB Nano (courtesy of Netgear promotion!) demanded V7 which I downloaded and tried to install. There were many errors installing Quicktime, but one was
"Could not open key HKEYLOCALMACHINES\software\classes\QuickTimePlayerLib.QuicktimePlayerApp\CLSID"
Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel"
I accessed myself (8-)# I tried running regedit, but that key and all the other "QuickTime" "software/classes/" keys gave the same error. I tried right clicking to set permissions, but although the list comes up, I cannot enable any of them.
I even tried safe mode, but all those entries are give similar errors. I have now deleted all references to "QuickTime" in the registry except the inaccessible ones, and the "Program Files" directory, but installation gives the same errors.
The result is that Itunes will not install, and I am unable to use my new Ipod.
A Google search finds no-one with similar problems.
Any ideas?

I am answering this blind as I did not realise I would not have access to the previous posting! Thanks for responding.
There is no version number of the installer under properties, but it says "V7" when run, and was downloaded earlier today (38,808,256 bytes) from the Apple site (as linked to by my then presumably working Itunes).
I see exactly my problem is in http://forums.vnunet.com/thread.jspa?threadID=93546&tstart=0
and unresolved.
I rolled back Windows to yesterday (and then the day before), and now find I cannot even uninstall either Quicktime or Itunes. The "Add or Remove programs" utility starts its progress bar and then quits with no report. I tried a re-install of the only previous installation of Itunes and it reported "You have a later version of Itunes installed" (meaning presumably V7) The Itunes I have on disk will not run "Files missing". This I suppose must be due to the failed installation of V7, which System Restore has failed to undo.
I tried then the V7 install again, and got:
"QuickTime failed to install Error #-2903"
and later
"Error 1905 c:\Program Files\Quicktime\QTOControl.dll
Hresult -2147220472"
... and then followed by three or four registry errors in HKEYLOCALMACHINES\SOFTWARE\Classes\ including the one I started this thread with. All these registry items are inaccesible under regedit ("Error opening key").
I am now in a position that I cannot go back or forward and still cannot link my IPOD to Itunes.
Is Itunes the only program that can transfer music?
It seems that one cannot simply copy, as firstly there is no "music" folder, and when it is done in a kosher way, the filenames are changed to an internal format, with the real names in a database.
It looks like Apple are managing to stop loads of other people using their new IPODs. I would ask for my money back if it wasn't a gift from Netgear (8-)#

Upgrade/install/uninstall problems, error messages etc.

After upgrading to version 7 everything seemed to be fine for a while then out of the blue I got this message:
Error writing to file C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\ko.lproj\iPodHelpchm. Verify that you have access to that directory
I am an admin on this computer, hadn't made any changes lately.
After some searching online, I tried uninstalling... iTunes uninstalled but Quicktime is still causing problems. I get similar error messages (2330) when trying to uninstall quicktime.
Now I can't get either to reinstall or uninstall!
I'm really frustrated, version 6 worked great for me.
I get this error message when trying to delete the iTunes and quicktime folders from Program Files: "Data Error (cyclic redundancy check)"
The programs appear uninstalled except these folders cannot be deleted. I have opened the folders and deleted everything inside that I could delete without receiving the same error message... but I'm still left with files on my computer and still cannot reinstall the latest iTunes/quicktime properly.
This seems to be the step that is preventing any of the previously suggested fixes for my iTunes problems on this forum from working.
I've been watching and waiting on a fix for this for months. I finally switched to an iTunes alternative for windows users, but I do miss my iTunes. I used to shop the iTunes store frequently but after this I don't know... I'm ready to give up!
Does anyone have any new insight on this???

thank you kindly for the detailed information.
Error writing to file C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\ko.lproj\iPodHelpchm. Verify that you have access to that directory
2330s citing language resource folders (you seem to be having trouble with one of the Korean ones) are typically caused by damaged files, or disk damage in the area of those files. i'd lean towards the disk damage possibility given the "Cyclic redundancy check" message.
so first let's try running a chkdsk over your C drive. see:
How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? if so, do you still get the 2330 next time you try an install?

Nokia N8 installing driver problem !! HELP ME !!!!

Hi guys, i recently bought a Nokia N8.

Windows says that: "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.

Attachments:
Nokia N8 USB Driver Problem.jpg ‏138 KB

I am having the exact same issue.
The Ovi store was installed first via the N8 built in software, then uninstalled and reinstalled using the latest Ovi version from Nokia's webinstaller download, but still no success with the Ovi connection.
The other file transfer modes work fine 'media transfer & 'mass storage' but the Ovi store is still unable to run due to Windows VISTA not being able to locate the drivers for the N8 software. (despite being installed!)
After accepting the prompt for Windows to locate the drivers... The same error as RayMond_021 screen shot appears.
"COMPUTER SAYS.... NO!"
Super frustrating! A brand new $800 phone and I can't even access the promised software (Ovi maps) that encouraged me to buy it!?
PLEASE HELP US!!!!!

Java won't install. Problems with "zipper.exe"

I know there are lot of these posts concerning the installation problems of Java. But so far none has answered to the problem i am currently having. I am trying to install JRE 6.14 or something like that. Same thing happens in offline installation and online installation. I start to downlaod the thing and it goes fine. Then i run the file and it starts to install Java. This is where it gets stuck. On the part where it starts "extracting the installer", everything stops.
When i press ctrl + alt + del, it seems that there is this executable file named "zipper.exe" which is trying to do something. Takes 25% of my Quad core processor = 1 core. Also there are 4 to 6 of "msiexec.exe" running but taking 00 of my processor.
OS: Windows XP Home Edition with Servicepack 3
Firewall: Comodo Internet security
Processor: Not sure, Intel and Quadcore it is in my opinion.
Any help is apreciated.

*(Quoted from my post on gofractal's issue)*
I am glad that I'm not the only one with this issue. I also have XP sp3, and I am thinking that is what it is coming down to, the possibility that there is not a Java version that is actually compatible with XP sp3, although some people do get lucky.
I am going to try to change the registry to make Windows think it has sp2 again, and see if that doesn't help (The reason I say again, is because I actually have xp sp2, but I am not going to update to xp sp3 anytime soon, because after I did, a shaderapidx9.dll error came up with Valve/Steam's games that use the source engine, ie. half-life2, left4dead, counter-strike:source, etc., which ultimately ended up in me having to reformat).
If any of you would like to try this, then proceed at your own risk.
The method is:
Step 1: Run Regedit by Clicking on Start -> Run , type in regedit and press enter
Step 2: Make a backup of your registry (just in case)
Step 3: Browse to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ CurrentControlSet\ Control\ Windows"
Step 4: Modify the value of "CSDVersion" from "0x00000300" (SP3) to the Windows XP SP2 value of "0x00000200" (Double click where it says CSDVersion and in the Value Data box, enter 200, for XP sp2, or 300, for xp sp3)
Step 5: Close registry editor
Step 6: Reboot
Note: I did this trick for the recent games that require XP sp3, like GTA4 and Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. and haven't had any problems spur from this change as of yet.+

Solved the Adobe 10 flashplayer Install/Use Problem!

Read someone else's responses to close everything, then go to:
http://adobe.com/go/tn_14157
Run the uninstall.
Then was advised to start in safe mode by going to:
start
run
iexplore -extoff
HOWEVER: I could not then perform the next action, so I skipped the above step of working in safemode, and just opened Internet Explorer regularly.
Went to:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
For some reason, it worked this time. The "graphics movie" on the flashwave site that is supposed to show up actually showed up this time. My computer did not show that I had a previous version of Adobe Flashplayer, although I think I probably did. The folder showed empty and it did not show up anywhere. I have probably downloaded and installed this a dozen times in the past week or so and it wasn't working. Very frustrating. I also found that I had the same problem with Adobe Reader 8 version. Tried many many many times to get it to work and it wouldn't. My old 6 version worked just fine, so after all the frustration finally just deleted the 8 upgrade and kept using the 6 version until the 9 came out, which works fine.
Can't really imagine it is so much everyone's operating sysems or settings when it seems to be only Adobe that causes these problems!
Hope this helps someone!
