ITunes "updates" "insufficient privileges" errors ATTN: HELP KATRINA

Hi:
Yet again, I cannot download an iTunes update without it failing and forcing me to uninstall the whole iTunes appliciation. This is the message I get: "the installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: c:\program files X86\comm files\apple\core fp. I once read a brilliant explanation how to get it to work again from Katrina S., but unfortunately cannot find that explanation again. I tried someone else's, which involved me going into "regedit" and doing a whole convoluted thing about giving myself permission to access everything. Since I am the SOLE user of this computer, I cannot understand this error message. PLEASE, KATRINA!! If you see this message, can you help?

Glad you got it installed, and thanks for the points.
I can't really say whether this will fix it for good, since I don't know what else you've got installed on your PC. Security software, or installing other programs, could definitely change folder permissions without specifically telling you. That c:/program files/ folder is used by many windows applications - not just itunes.
If you get error messages about not having permission to a folder, whether it's during an itunes install or not, just go to the security tab and grant permissions again....to whatever folder is mentioned in the message.

    Hey jeight26,
    When you uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, did you use this article?
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    If you haven't already done these steps, this section contains information that might help your situation, as the order and manner which you uninstall has an effect on the outcome:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    Sincerely,

  • "ora-01031 insufficient privilege" error

  • SQL Workshop insufficient privileges error :-S

    Hi everyone,
    The problem I have is when I try to compile a procedure, function or whatever I get the ORA-01031: insufficient privileges error.
    I tryed to give the DBA role to the APEX_PUBLIC_USER without success.
    I tryed to grant the "execute" (on an especified procedure or function for testing purposes) privileges to that user and I still getting the error. :-S
    I can compile any object from the SQL Navigator but APEX.
    What am I missing?
    Hope u could help me :)
    Thanks in advance,
    Fury Morales.

    You should not be messing around with the grants made to the APEX product accounts (FLOWS_xxx etc).
    Scott's suggestion is to have your workspace parsing schema be granted the 'create procedure' privilege.
    From sqlworkshop you can the run query below to determine the 'system' privileges granted to the workspace schema
    select privilege from user_sys_privs;

    Check your REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE . If it is set to NONE, then make sure that SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) in your sqlnet.ora file.
    the OS user should be in ORA_DBA group.
    Try connecting as SYS,

  • "Insufficient privileges"-error when starting database when on network

    Hi
    I have an Oracle 9.2.0.5 database installed on my laptop (Windows 2000 Prof), but I have a small problem.
    When I'm plugged in to the company's network, I can start the database normally.
    However, when I'm not connected to the company network, i.e. only logged in locally on my laptop, then I get an ORA-01031 Insufficient Privileges error when I start the database. Therefor, I can't do anything.
    When I'm plugged into the company network, start the database, and then unplug my laptop, I can still connect to the database. So I guess it checks some userrights only when it starts the database.
    I checked the user account settings, and my user is a local administrator, and is in the ORA_DBA usergroup.
    Does someone know which setting I have to change?

    You can install MS Loopback Adapter on your system and assign an IP Address to the loopback adapter. You should then be able to work even when not connected to the network.

  • ORA-01031 insufficient privileges  error when selecting from a view

    OK I think this might be a dumb question but I can't figure it out:
    User John has been granted SELECT privilege (directly, not through a database role) to schema FRED.table1;
    User John can issue select * from FRED.table1; and it works just fine.
    User John has then been granted SELECT privilege (directly, not via a database role) to schema
    MARK.view1;
    MARK.view1 only selects from FRED.table1. No other tables are in the view1.
    Schema MARK can successfully query the views. SELECT * FROM VIEW1 returns results.
    I also checked the MARK schema to ensure that it has been granted SELECT on FRED.table1 directly which it has.
    Now, when logged into schema John, I try SELECT * FROM MARK.VIEW1; and I get ORA-01031 insufficient privileges error.
    I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this. If John is granted SELECT ANY TABLE, it of course works but I don't want John to have that powerful priv.
    To recap, John has SELECT on both MARK.VIEW1 and the table which VIEW1 selects from (FRED.TABLE1).
    John can select from FRED.TABLE1 no problem but receives a privilege error even though John has SELECT on MARK.VIEW1.
    Any thoughts?
    Oh, Oracle EE 10.2.0.4

    Oh, Oracle EE 10.2.0.4Are you certain John has been granted select on Mark.view1 ? In order for that to work Mark would have to have been given select on Fred.table1 WITH GRANT OPTION ... otherwise the grant would fail and then John would not be able to select from the view because the grant was never successfully issued.
    Here's a basic test case (which i think conforms to what you've outlined) to get it working.
    drop user u1 cascade;
    drop user u2 cascade;
    drop user u3 cascade;
    create user u1 identified by u1;
    grant connect, resource to u1;
    create user u2 identified by u2;
    grant connect, resource, create view to u2;
    create user u3 identified by u3;
    grant connect, resource to u3;
    connect u1/u1@orcl
    create table test1 (col1 number);
    grant select on test1 to u2 with grant option; --> this is the important part
    grant select on test1 to u3;
    connect u2/u2@orcl
    create view test2 as select * from u1.test1;
    grant select on test2 to u3;
    connect u3/u3@orcl
    select * from u2.test2;

  • "insufficient privileges" errors when installing iTunes 10.0 (Bonjour)

    I attempted to install iTunes 10.0. Initially I used the auto-installer and I received the following errors:
    "The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files\Bonjour. The installation cannot continue. Log on as administrator or contact your system administrator."
    Then the same error with the following file:
    "C: \Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\com.yahoo.go.sync.client.resources\...\Windows."
    I was given two options to either "retry" or "cancel" --"retry" just keeps throwing the error up. I was forced to click "cancel" both times.
    Following hitting cancel twice I got an "installation interrupted" message telling me that the installation had failed.
    Following the errors recommendation, I logged off and relogged on as the administrator. Then I downloaded iTunes 10.0 from the Apple web site and attempted to install it manually as the administrator while logged on as the administrator (right click the program "run as Administrator"). I received all the same errors and the same failed installation.
    When I attempt to go into the program files and alter the privileges to bonjour or the Apple\mobile device support I get a “you do not have permission to view or edit this object’s permission settings” even when logged on as the administrator. It appears that both are Apple programs probably installed with a previous version of iTunes so I am not too sure why the tight security and why I do not have the ability to modify them.
    I am running Windows 7 (32bit). Any assistance with getting iTunes 10.0 installed correctly would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi there, this is what had to do.
    First a bit background. I got the same errors. Insufficient privies for this and that. Logged in as Admin, same problem. Gave my user account Admin rights, still same problem.. now it actually said only 'Creator/Users' can install etc.
    So long story short deleting, rebooting, magic... all failed.
    1. I uninstalled all Apple software!!
    2. yes all of it. Uninstall programs. Uninstalled Apple stuff, then Bonjour then Quick time.
    3. tried to delete folders that were left behind, got smacked with insufficient rights to do so.
    4. Logged in as Admin (that will teach ya Win 7)
    5. Used Unlocker and LockHunter. I was able to unlock/kill process of some files and was able to delete some folders, but not all (grrrr)
    6. disabled AntiVirus/Spyware program
    7. that allowed me to delete all folders (wth? .. okay then)
    8. went into registry and Searched for 'Apple'
    9. fainted when I saw hundreds of Apple entries.
    10. deleted all obvious 'Apple', 'MobileMe' and 'Quicktime entries', take care not to delete 'Applet...' stuff. Not the same. Like I said I only got rid of obvious Apple software stuff.
    11. finally I ran CCleaner (great app, get it and donate a couple of $$) and had it scan, back up and clean my registry.
    12 rebooted and logged in as me/user
    13 checked /program files to make sure bonjour, apple and quicktime was really gone
    14. downloaded latets itunes
    15. installed itunes, did my back ups and updated ipod software
    man that only took me a couple of hours

  • ITunes upgrade - insufficient privileges

    I am attempting to upgrade to iTunes 11.5.5x64 and most of the way through the installation I receive a message saying the "installer has insufficient privileges."  This has happened on the past few new versions of iTunes.  I have searched all over to find a solution and I've tried several suggested solutions to no avail.  I am VERY frustrated and am getting ready to find an alternate program for my music.  I am frustrated that Apple does not support the installation of thier product unless you pay.  Help please.

    I appreciate everone's help with my problem.  Here's where I am currently at.  So far, I have uninstalled the Apple related programs and also was finally able to delete all the related files including the dll exensions.  I continue to recieve the original error message saying, "The installer has insufficient privileges."  I have even attempted to install older versions of iTunes to see if I can get one of them to install with the same results. 
    I've been several weeks now without iTunes to back up or update.  Honestly, I have tried to follow everyone's suggestions step by step, but so far no success.  I've read other threads concerning the same issue and followed thier suggested solutions.  Let me just say, this is VERY frustrating.  My son suggests the reason I'm  having the problem is I am using a PC and should go Apple on everything, but I've never had this kind of problem with a PC or a related program.  I'm not saying I couldn't though.  It is starting to make me wonder if I should dump the Apple stuff and go all PC including my phone.  I guess you can tell I'm frustrated. 
    Does anyone have any other suggestions I could try?

  • Getting inappropriate "insufficient privileges" errors

    I have a PL/SQL stored procedure which, if necessary, gets current values from a sequence, drops the sequence, and re-creates the sequence with the "start with" value higher than the max value of the column the sequence associated with.
    Often, maybe 60% of the time, when I call the procedure, I get an "insufficient priviledges" error. The rest of the time it runs fine. If I run sqlplus as the same user (the DBA user which created the stored procedure and the sequence being recreated) and run the same commands manually, I never receive this error.
    I am running Oracle 8.1.5 on a Linux RH 6.0+ server.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
