need help here... just bought a new macbook with all the updated stuffs. tried to download the iwork 08 trial for several times but each time prompted with a message which says 'Mounting Failed'
pls help......

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
It could be that due to lag on the internet connection, some part of the download got corrupted. There are alternatives to iWork on my FAQ*:

Solaris 10 upgrade fails with "mount failed"

I'm trying to upgrade an aged Ultra 80 to Solaris 10u9 (from Solaris 10u2 or so), so that it can be used for our product testing purposes. After several unsuccessful attempts, I finally freed up enough space on the / filesystem (5.2GB free) by moving /opt to a newly installed second drive.
However, the upgrade now fails with
"Mount failed for either root, swap, or other file system.
Pfinstall failed. Exit stat= java.lang.UNIXProcess@e2892b 2"
At the end of the log file it says
"Checking c0t0d0s0 for an upgradeable Solaris image.
ERROR: Mount failed for either root, swap, or other file system."
I'm stumped. It doesn't say which file system it's having problems with.
Any ideas as to how to troubleshoot this problem, or what the cause might be? At 30 minutes per upgrade attempt, I'd like to know what the cause is rather than pursuing trial and error.
Thanks.

Look at your "vfstab" and see if there are any mounts that need a specific driver like a SAN-provided LUN. Comment them out during the upgrade for the upgrade tries to mount everything in your /etc/vfstab and if it doesn't have the driver/software to do it, it will fail...

Had to uninstall iWork trial since I bought the pages app and it wouldn't let me print or save. Now the app store says I have pages installed but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it. I'm not very computer savvy and am getting frustrated!

Ooops, guess I didn't need to post everything in the title - sorry! I bought the pages app - but couldn't save or print so with some online searching found that I had to uninstall the iWork trial which had expired. I did that - but now I can't figure out how to re-install the pages app!! The app store says it's installed, but I can't find it anywhere to open and use it. I'm not very computer savvy - and am a first time Mac user and am getting extremely frustrated! I e-mailed some help center and they can't seem to help me either. I would appreciate any help/advice that can fix my problem - thanks in advance!!

OK Apple has stuffed up the demo version upgrade process so the first thing you need to do is get rid of the demo.
That includes getting rid of the files in the system.
The instructions how to do that are here:
Note That where you see / that is the sequence of folders, each nested inside each other.
User/Library/Preferences the com.apple.iwork.Keynote.plist
Means the User (you, the little home icon, whatever you are called on your computer) then the Library folder inside that and then the Preferences folder inside that.
Lion initially hides the System folders from you so you have to go to the Finder > Menu > hold down the option key and click on GO > Library to see it.

Weblogic Server 6.1 trial version fails to install in Linux

Weblogic Server 6.1 trial version fails to install in Linux
(in Linux Redhat 6.2, jdk 1.2.2)
1. When unzipping the *.zip file "weblogic610_generic.zip", the unzip program
reported that some files and directories not properly named. (using winzip, quite
a number of files' directories start "d:/".
2. During installation, the screen hanged right after choosing language, and the
background threw "Exception in thread 'main'".

Yes, that is exactly what I ran and it worked.
Kernel: 2.2.12-20
java -fullversion
java full version "Linux_JDK_1.2.2_RC4"
That was to install.

Hello,
Could you give the detailed steps when you unzip and run? Did you only
use the command "java -cp weblogic610_generic.zip install -i console" andit
worked fine? Your system's basic setting like java version and kernal etc?
Thanks.

Run the following to install it:
java -cp weblogic610_generic.zip install -i console
That will provide a console based install.

Mounting failed when installing Firefox 3.6 on Mac OS 10.5

Mounting failed error message when trying to install Firefox 3.6 on Mac OS X 10.5. This seems to be a common problem and I have no previous version of Firefox.

Try to do some maintenance.

Can't get around "mount failed" - "on error" won't do it - help appreciated

Hi
I'm using this syntax to mount a volume, and it works well if the volume can in fact be mounted:
try
mount volume "afp://username:[email protected]/MyDir"
on error
display dialog "blah blah"
end try
BUT, if the volume can't be mounted because the directory specified is incorrect, I a dialog saying "Mount Failed" opens with the only option being 'OK'. Under some other mount failure circumstances this dialog doesn't appear, and the script does eventually time out and disappear all by itself. But if this dialog appears, I have no option other than to manually press OK. It stays open forever. This dialog appears before the script passes the error to the display dialog part, so it prevents the "on error" part of the script from running. This is the only example I know of where 'on error' fails to let the scripter move on and manage the error.
What I would really like to do is to get the 'on error' functionality to actually work properly, because I can determine the PID of the process using Terminal and could then kill it using a shell script if , BUT none of this is possible because the script never gets to the 'on error' state because a real human must press the dialog's OK. I can't seem to use system events to send anything to it because the whole applescript just hangs at this point until the OK is checked.
Does anyone know a workaround? I've tried using a with timeout step around the whole thing but also won't work.
Thanks for any advice you could give me.
Chris.

I'm having the same trouble, but for different reasons. I was trying to determine a method for examining all the mounted volumes on my desktop and then detecting which mounted volume came from which network server. There doesn't seem to be any way to determine this via any filesystem metadata or anything. The only solution that I could think of was to build an afp url for each server/volume combination for any given mounted volume I wanted to test and then try mount volume on each url (thinking that the on error handler would trap the errors and then I could branch accordingly). Doesn't work. It's interesting that if you try mount volume afp://validerserver/badvolume, you get the mount failed error before your on error handler kicks in. If you try mount volume afp://badserver/validvolume, the on error handler fields the resulting -35 error. If you try mount volume afp://emptystring, you get a connection failed dialog before the on error handler again. Really annoying.
I filed a bug on this.

Downloading dmg file and Mounting Failed ??

hi,
i might have messed up with the files on my ibook.
i somehow deleted previous users account and created mine As Admin. ..... however deleted user account is in deleted user folder as dmg file.
now when i log in my account as admin and download something > then Disk copier helper opens > then installation >> and finally Message comes .. Mounting Failed ( error 95 ).
this happened when i tried to download and install dmg file from internt
it also says that there is no file folder to handle this file
How can i fix mounting problem on my User Account as Admin.
thanks

I'm on the same boat. I called Apple Support. They made me clean cache, create a new user, yada yada yada. Nothing helped. Last resort was to re-install OSX Snow 10.6.2
I did so, doing an ERASE then moving files/programs back from Time Machine. Right after OS was just installed, I was able to download anything. After I did an upgrade to the latest combo patch to 10.6.2 I was back in "no download land"
I have Google Chrome (no dice), FireFox (no dice)....
Help! I don't want to have to re-install everything again!

"Mounting Failed" - downloaded driver for HP deskjet 6980

I downloaded the printer driver for my HP deskjet 6980 and when it finished downloading it said that mounting failed. Why would this be?

Hi Kat,
Either a RAM/Hardware issue, Disk needs Repair, or some glith in downloading.
Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), off the HD & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, reboot once more.

At the end of the download I get a message saying mounting failed

I click on download. After the download is complete, a message comes up saying mounting failed. The download is not successful. Is there another way to download?

Mounting failed

Dear all,
For a while it has been impossible for me to innstal non-Apple software (like the new version of Skype and Plaxo) on my Mac. Downloading the files work fine, but each time the download is finished I get the same message: Mounting Failed
Does anyone know how to solve the problem?
Thanks a mil.

Hey i did have this problem before and nobody answer me. At last i discovered a tools in the utilities folder that need to be install. The tools is relates to the mounted files. Try to find it in the utilities folder and there is icon and double click it then it will store in your system preference pane. Good luck! I resolved my problem though.

Adobe Muse 'Trial initialisation failed' on Mac

Hello,
I am interested in trying Adobe Muse, however whenever I try to begin my trial I get an error message that says 'Trial initialisation failed, your trial has expired'. I have never used the software before, and I have tried creating another Adobe ID, I have installed it on another system and I still get the same error.
I am running Mac OS X 10.7.5 on a late 2006 iMac.
All help is greatly appreciated.

I have the same problem with a same Mac OS X 10.7.5 in our company
Muse Trial was instal on one of our Mac, trial was over, then we get instal to another Mac with new Adobe ID, but he said on last step after login ID that 'Trial initialisation failed, your trial has expired. as if we install muse before...and nothing helps. we try delete OOBE and MBLStore and Adobe muse, reinstal adobe air, but nothing ...it looks like its blocked with our global ip, but it can not be. Why he (Adobe Air?/Muse) think that we had already instal and over Muse Trial on another machine (Mac), when we did not do this? like all our Mac is the same one.

Flash trial verion fails to initialize

so, I downloaaded and installed flash on my laptop PC running
Vista. I havent had any problems in the past, but now when i try to
set up the trial version, it gives me this message: "the adobe
flash trial has fail to initialize, try restarting your computer or
re-installing your software..." ect. I don't know what could be
causing this.
If it matters, at one point i did have a full registered
version on this very computer for the entire creative suite.
however, my PC crashed and I therefore had to reformat the
computer. could this have anything to do with it?
please help if you can. Thanks.

I wonder, do you have Adobe AIR installed? I installed AIR
before knowing there was an issue where you had to update Flash Pro
before installing AIR and now I can't install the update and
haven't been able to find any info or get any help to figure out
how to resolve the issue.

Microsoft office download problem " Mounting Failed "

Hello there ,
Thank you for your time . Im trying to download Microsoft office for mac but every time i download the file i get the message " Mounting Failed " Dont know what the problem .
thank you

As Office is not an Apple product, I strongly recommend asking in the Microsoft Office:Mac forums here:
Office for Mac
Everyone there is a Mac user AND an Office user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. You will get the fastest help there and I think you will find the contributors more than helpful.
