Installing Lightroom 5.4 on an iMac running Mavericks

When I attempted to install Lightroom 5 on my iMac, running the latest version of Mavericks, it just stopped with a blank Installer window.
The iMac is a 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB DDR3 running in 64-bit mode (checked with command line).
This has happened both with a disc install and a download version.
Any ideas?

I'll try installing under the Admin account I keep as a seperate high level management account on the iMac.
I had some problems installing Elements a couple of weeks ago as well - had to use the alternate method.
Checked the installation log - nothing seems to stand out as a problem - very strange, however Mavericks is the first Mac OS I have had problems with - on installation it managed to corrupt all the permissions of my user accounts, and there are still a few niggles that I am not happy with - still better than Windows though (have to live with that at work - yuck).

  • Installing Windows 7 on a late 2009 iMac running Mavericks

    I'm running a perfectly good late-2009 iMac running Mavericks and had a bootcamp partition that worked until I needed to replace my hard drive.
    Now I want to install Windows 7 (via bootcamp) for gaming.  Bootcamp 5 won't download the software or allow a USB/ISO Windows 7 load due to my model/ROM version, which is:
    Model Name:               iMac
    Model Identifier:          iMac10,1
    Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed:          3.33 GHz
    Number of Processors:          1
    Total Number of Cores:         2
    L2 Cache:                      6 MB
    Memory:                       8 GB
    Bus Speed:                    1.33 GHz
    Boot ROM Version:        IM101.00CC.B00
    I've read quite a few threads about the apple software download server issues, creating an ISO, adjusting the BootCamp package, using virtualbox, etc. to bypass this.  But can't find anything addressing my specific situation where I'm running mavericks AND have an older ROM version that won't allow USB install for some stupid reason.
    I've made an ISO boot disk (and USB), tried adjusting my BootCamp package strings, and have virtualbox, winclone, Daemon tools, etc. but can't get to the point where I can upload the bootcamp software and Win7.  Has anyone solved this problem?

    No one has done this before?

  • Mid-2007 iMac Running Mavericks Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Install

    How do I go about installing a Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit (OEM) partition on a mid-2007 iMac running Mavericks?
    Apple  says that 64-bit Windows 7 isn't supported by my model iMac, but I know  for a fact that other people have gotten it to work. I'm just a little  unclear on how exactly to do it. In any case, I made the mistake of  buying two copies of Windows 7 64-bit under the assumption that they  would install just fine on my iMac and MacBook Pro (MacBook Pro is from 2007 as well), so I need to get  this working.
    What version of Boot Camp should I use? What version  support drivers should I download? Apple says that Boot Camp 5.1, which  is what I have, is incompatible with my iMac, and it says the same  thing for every driver download that supports 64-bit versions of Windows  7, but would it be correct to say that this "incompatibility" is only the case if I don't  first modify my Windows 7 installation disc according to the  instructions in the attached link?
    There is a Windows XP  partition on my MacBook Pro, so I figure I can get on it to modify the  installation disc before attempting a 64-bit Windows 7 install on the  iMac.

  • I can't install pages 09 on a recent iMac running 10.9.1.

    I can't install pages 09 on a recent iMac running 10.9.1. I am using a retail dvd - I get the error message that the "installer is damaged".
    Any suggestions? THANKS

    Open your System Preferences and go to "Security & Privacy". In the General tab set "Allow apps downloaded from:" to Anywhere. (You may have to click the lock and enter your administrator password first before you can make this change).
    Now try the installer again. Make sure you change the setting back to it's previous setting when you are done and check the App Store for any updates to your iWork apps before you start using it.

  • Wait, I'm a little confused. On my day old iMac running Mavericks, do I install iDVD from my iLife 11 disk, or somehow copy the app from my existing iMac and install it on my new one?

    Wait, I'm a little confused. On my day old iMac running Mavericks, do I install iDVD from my iLife 11 disk, or somehow copy the app from my existing iMac and install it on my new one?

    The following may be a bit easier set up the new Mac with the same iDVD capability on your old Mac:
    1 - copy your current iDVD application from the old Mac to the Applications folder of the new Mac. The latest version available is 7.1.2.  If you don't have that versoin go to the Apple Downloads site and download the iDVD 7.1.2 updater and run it on your current iDVD application.
    2 - copy the iDVD folder that resides in the old Mac's HD/Library/Application Support folder to the same folder on your new Mac.

  • Can't Print to Canon ImagePROGRAF 600 with IMAC running Mavericks

    I have a new IMAC running Mavericks connected to a networked Canon Plotter. I can plot to it using my old MacBook Pro running snow leopard with the 2009 Driver Ver. 2.17. And my office mate can print to it using a 2009 IMAC running mavericks with the 2012 Driver and ver. 3.10. When I go to print, in the page set-up of the print window I can only select MANUAL for the paper feed, I can't change to cassette or Roll, and then an alert pops up saying: "Manual is not available..."
    If I ignore that and continue trying to print I get a printer error message say: "Open error: Try turning the printer off and back on again..."  This doesn't work either.
    I've tried going backwards in software generations but that only creates more problems. The Mountain lion version allowed me select MAUAL or CASSETTE in the page set up window but then the ImagePROGRAF Preview said "That function is not support by this printer." Has any one experienced this and solved it?  Thanks.

    I think this could be related to a communication problem between the Mac and iPF. I don't have an iPF600 but do have an iPF8400 and iPF9400S. I downloaded the v3.10 driver for 10.8 and installed it on 10.9.5. I then created a dummy IP address and selected the iPF600 driver. When I first tried to print I got the following pop-up.
    As this IP address was not connected to any printer I cancelled this window and then found the same symptom as you i.e. Only having Manual and selecting it resulted in an error window appearing. I also found that when I changed to the Main menu, the Media Type drop menu was stuck at Plain Paper.
    I then created another printer to the iPF8400 but using the iPF600 driver. When I selected to print, I got the pop-up again. This time I entered my password and then found that the drop menus worked in Page Setup and Main.
    So when you added the iPF600 to Printers & Scanners, did you get the pop-up above?
    Also, if you select the Main menu, is the Get Information button available?

  • Audio problem on iMac running Mavericks using FW

    I have a brand new iMac running Mavericks. I have a 3Tb hybrid drive which I wonder whether this has something to do with my problem.
    I am trying to use my Yamaha Motif XS rack with firewire to route audio. I bought a Thunderbolt to FW connector and a 800 to 400 lead.
    I run iTunes and everything works fine for about 60 seconds and then the audio hiccups and stops. If I switch back to built in audio and then back to FW then I’m fine for another 60/70 seconds.
    Can anyone advise?
    thanks :-)

    You should be able to download and install the updates from here:
    Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Macintosh
    In older versions of photoshop elements, the updater never worked, even when the applications were brand new.
    I think the problem is that the Adobe Application Manager needs to be updated to a newer version, but since there will be no more updates for pse 9, it may just be better to install the two updates
    from the link above and leave well enough alone.
    Anyway here's a link to the newest Adobe Application Manager

  • Uninstall windows XP from iMac running Mavericks

    I wish to uninstall windows XP service pack 3 from my iMac running Mavericks I have removed all I can see but it still appears to be in the back ground any help please

    I am not using Boot Camp I am using Parallels Desktop 9 for Mac
    The Virtual Machine you created (windows XP service pack 3) is located in your /Documents/Parallels folder or in /Users/Shared/Parallels folder. If all you want to do is delete it, you can go to that folder and drag the VM file to the trash. I use Fusion rather than Parallels and in Fusion, you can right click on the virtual machine name and one of the choices is to delete it. I'd imagine Parallels has something similar.
    BTW, although Microsoft is no longer supporting XP with security updates, Microsoft Security Essentials can still be forced to download and install the latest virus definitions. You just have to tell Security Essentials to update itself.

    Go to Mail Preferences>Accounts, click the '+' button below the list of accounts and insert the settings, username and password as instructed. Some account types can be set up automatically as soon as Mail knows the emails address (because the server settings are built in), in other cases you will have to get them from your ISP.

    Ok, sounds like the safe mode boot worked... You probably don't want to always be in safe mode though (some reduced functionality) so does it do a normal boot now? If not, you should then reboot into safe mode and run Disk Utility. Then select Macintosh HD on the left hand side, and click the Verify Disk button. If needed, it will ask you to Repair Disk. If there are errors found, Repair Disk again until there are none. Then try another normal boot and reply with result, wether good or bad.
