Lightroom 4.3 Will not install on Win 7 64 bit (As previously with 4.2, 4.1 etc!!)

I am unable to install the 4.3 update. The installer runs, extracts ("Extracting: Adobe_Lightroom_64.msi...") and then when the bar is complete the popup closes and nothing else happens. I can't beleive Adobe PERSISTS in sending out this BROKEN installer!!
This has happened in each of the 4.x updates. I was able to solve it previously with some helpful post about opening some folder in AppData I think and immediately clicking on a file for the fraction of a second when it appears in order to open it and finish the installation. However having scoured the posts I am no longer able to find that helpful post. It is particularly difficult becasue there are SO MANY posts abut this problem! Why doesn't Adobe fix it? I have a lot of software on this machine and LR is the ONLY one which has an installation problem.
Can anybody please direct me to the post which has the steps to fix this problem?
And can ADOBE PLEASE FIX THE INSTALLER!!?

I don't know how to answer that question, Rob, or why I would be able to. Obviously people will have different configutrations. It really just points to the question I am asking. I can only assume Adobe hasn't tested it thoroighly enough and is not making any effort to find out why, which suggests to me they don't really care enough about their users to bother. This issue has been raised often enough and nothing has been done.

  • Flash Player 10 Not installing on Win 7 64 bit PC

    Flash Player 10 download goes through install procedure and says it is installed but it is not.
    After that There is always  a Flash Player Install file on the PC.
    When I click on that it goes through the install procedure and says it is installed but it is not.
    Have tried above install more than 6 different times. Also on my wife's new PC.
    Always the same bad result.
    These two new PC's are both on WIN 7 64 bit OS.

    I tried the suggested method of uninstall and then install.  Also the disable instructions for Norton AV.
    Still no success.  When I again check the list of programs in Control Panel for possible uninstall the Flash Player 10 has returned there.
    But the player does not play when needed for some videos on Facebook, etc.
    One thing I could not find to disable on Norton AV was "Smart Firewall."  It was not in my NAV 2011.
    Any other suggestions appreciated.

    Subject: Flash Player 10 Not installing on Win 7 64 bit PC
    Hi, I would try this method and see if it works better. There is a link for FF(Firefox) If you don't use FF, ignore that. Also before you begin this procedure, I need to know what Anti-Virus/Spyware programs you have Installed. Some will block the Install of Flash Player and that needs to be taken care of first.
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Uninstaller:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for IE- use the EXE Installer
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    Download and SAVE to your Desktop the Installer for FF- use the EXE Installer for plugin based (from the same site)
    Close all browser windows, you only want to be looking at your Desktop.
    Disable any messenger services, as yahoo, msn, etc in the system tray(area near the clock)
    Be sure to use the Administrator Account.
    Run the Uninstaller and when finished, Reboot(restart) your computer.
    Run the Installer for IE, Run the Installer for FF(If needed/used) and when finished, Reboot.
    Then go to this test site and test each browser:
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    You may want to print these instructions to make it easier to follow. If you have any questions, let me know.

  • CS3 will not install on Windows 7, 64-bit. No error message. Just stops installing.

    CS3 will not install on Windows 7, 64-bit. No error message. Just stops installing. This is a brand new machine. This is one of the first things I'm installing on it. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. The disks are fine. I have the programs installed on my two XP machines. When I run the disk, I get the window pop up that says "Initializing Installation for Adobe Creative Suite 3". Then the disk stops spinning and nothing else happens. No error message. Nothing else happens. I'm baffled. I have searched several discussion boards and cannot find anybody that has had a similar install issue like this.

    Old_Timer I would recommend reviewing your install logs to determine the exact error message.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the logs at Troubleshoot installation with install logs | CS3, CS4 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-installation-install-logs-cs3.html.

  • Will not install in Windows 7 64 bit

    Downloaded SafariSetup.exe but it will not install. Clicking on it results in message: "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are running." I need Safari to run WebKit. Is there a Safari that will run on my computer? OR is there another browser in which to run WebKit?

    Yeah, I think it falls into the same category of problems as "not a valid win32 application", "invalid signature", and "unknown publisher" messages ... usually all of which relate to installers getting damaged on the download.
    At any rate, I'm glad you got things working again.

  • LabVIEW 2010 will not install on Win XP SP3

    I have made several attempts to install LabVIEW 2010 on Win XP SP3. I already have LabVIEW 2009 installed and working.
    For each attempt I accept the default install options and do not put in a serial number. The first attempt got stuck at 2% complete and did not change for 30 minutes. No error messages. I cancelled the install and tried the install again from setup.exe.
    The next two attempts stall at 0% blinking forever. The 4th attempt made it to 18% before it stalled for more than 30 minutes. The next two attempts stalled at 0% repeating and would not cancel. I had to terminate them with Task Manager.
    Why won't LabVIEW 2010 install without stalling before than 30 minutes? Why does it not spit out an error message instead of just stalling? How do I know why it won't install?  How do I fix it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I had the same problem. The 2010 install was very slow on my XP SP3  PC. I do not why, but it took very very long time to get past 2% of the setup. But then the install process speeded up. So just let the computer take the time that is needed. It will eventually install. I used the trail version download from NI
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
    (Sorry no Labview "brag list" so far)

  • Itunes 12.1.0.71 will not install on win 7 error 1053

    I have a BIG problem...cannot install 12.1.0.71...The install gets about 90% thru and then I get the error....Windows could NOT start Apple Mobile Device Services error 1053...The Service did not respond......after trying all the solutions I found online I called Apple support and paid 99$(which was not refunded) and two of their techs...the supposed top level Cathy...was unable to help....after two hours of work....they can remotely see and guide me as to what to try and it was mostly what was published online at apple support re how to really uninstall Itunes properly which we did about 6 times...and still it would not get past the "windows could not startt AMDS and errors 1053 and service did not respond and error 7 win error 193 and itunes helper not installed correctly....those later errors occur when you ignore that AMDS did not start...etc....
    So I am kind of stuck....
    Other things we tried....Disable Norton....Clean the registry using Norton Utilities....No other hidden Viruses around all clear on that....Win 7 totally updated....used the windows service that checks just about every kind of possible bug in system from the MS site...no help there...
    In the whole process I lost the ability to restore to an earlier version that worked that disappeared off the restore calendar.
    SO HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
    which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases.
    Or roll back to the previous build:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

  • Lightroom 5.3 will not install, error message saying it cannot find x64.msi

    I am not a cloud cc member, just cs6, downloaded lightroom from the lightroom page, it is not listed in my cloud application
    I get the following error message.The feature that you are trying to install is on a network resource that is unavailable. Check ok or try an alternative pathway to a folder containing the installation package, Adobe-Lightroom-64.msi.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I get this to when trying to install from CC or standalone, thing is i have cleaned my C:\ drive since all apps tend to install crap there, it is
    a 115 gig ssd and i am down to 11 gig free, i removed a lot of stuff including some uninstall info that eats a lot of space.
    But where does the installer find the information? i have searched and deleted every mention of lightroom in the registry, god that was a lot,
    Still the old version is deleted from the disk with extreme prejudice is there no switch that makes it ignore any old versions and install anyway?

  • CS4 32 bit will not open under Win 7 64 bit.

    Upgraded from Win 32 bit XP to Win 7 64 bit. While in the process of rebuilding my system downloaded and installed Beta versions of CS6 and Bridge for CS6, before trying to install my current CS4 version. I do not know whether this is causing any of the following problems that I am experiencing.        A short time later I installed CS4, ending up with both the 32 and 64 bit versions of CS4. Interestingly, this install did not install a CS4 version of Bridge in either 32 bit or 64 bit, possibly because the Beta CS6 version of Bridge was installed?      
    However, from a previous system backup I was able to retrieve a copy of the CS4 version (presumably 32 bit version) of Bridge, which I simply copied to the new system and found that it works fine. Interestingly now the CS6 version of Bridge loads one of the two CS4 versions and not the Beta CS6, but I cannot tell which one of the CS4 versions. Question: how does one determine whether the loaded version is the 32 or 64 bit version? If I click on System Info it does say X64 which I assume means the 64 bit version is loaded. Is this the way to tell?        
    The CS4 version of Bridge now apparently defaults to the 64 bit version of CS4 on opens.     
    I have now read that most if not all my previous plugins will not run under CS4 64 bit, so I really need to be able to run CS4 32 bit. Unfortunately, when I try to open CS4-32, it fails with the following msgs: "Adobe Photoshop CS4 Has Stopped Working." Then,

    The CS4-64 version continues to run as it should.
    Assuming that CS6 will come with a 32 bit version when it hits the market I will be upgrading, but for now I really need a working 32 bit version of CS4.
    Please help.
     

    Help - System Info will tell you whether you're running the 64 bit or 32 bit version (look at the end of the first line).  EDIT:  Note that originally said Help - About and have corrected this.
    Yes, Photoshop CS6 provides both a 32 and 64 bit version.  In fact, it should have installed both on your system.
    Normally the two versions don't get into eachothers' hair, EXCEPT for file associations, which may explain the mixup you're having where Bridge runs the last version installed.  I doubt it has to do with your crash though.
    Have you copied any plug-ins or set an Extra plug-ins folder so that there could be a mixup between the two versions?
    Have you checked to see if your display driver has been updated?  Go to the web site of the maker of your video card and download the version that matches your hardware and OS.  Display driver updates solve many problems.

  • ITunes will not launch on Win 7 32-bit

    It was working fine a week and a half ago when I used it last, but now iTunes will not launch. It just shows up in the task manager Processes tab and nothing in the Applications tab. I have followed the instructions provided here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717
    and still nothing. I have also done a complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and Quicktime. I am pretty much at the end of my rope and I am hoping someone has a suggestion that works.

    We could try renaming the APSDaemon.exe file.
    In Computer, open Local Disk C:\ or whichever drive your program files are installed on.
    On a 32-bit version of Windows 7, open the "Program Files" folder.
    On a 64-bit version of Windows 7, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
    Open the "Common Files" folder.
    Open the "Apple" folder.
    Open the "Apple Application Support" folder.
    Rename the APSDaemon.exe file APSDaemonDISABLED (or something like that).
    Does that stop the iTunes issue?

  • Lightroom 4.1 does not open in win 7 64 bit.  Any ideas?

    When I try to start Lightroom 4.1 on a Win 7 64 bit it hangs during loading?  Any ideas.

    Be sure that you have a backup of your Lightroom Catalog, and your photos. The more backups the better.
    Shut down and remove any USB devices from the computer.  Try restarting LR.
    If that does not work, use your LR Catalog backups.  If one does not work, try the next one.  (It is a good idea to keep several Catalog Backups.)

  • HP Security Manager 7 not installing in Win 7 (64 bit)

    Hello Tech Gurus, This is very surprising.  I was using HP Protect Tool Security Manager 7 for last 3 years. But there were some problems due to which I uninstall all the HP security softwares and tried to install Validy Finger Print Driver, Security Manager, HP Face Recognition software. So I downloaded the latest driver from the below HP site. https://h20566.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=5229456&swLangOid=8&swEnvOid=4059 sp57486 - Security Manager (7.0.1.1199)sp58940 - Face Recognition for HP ProtectTools (7.2.1.4548)sp64338 - Validity Fingerprint Sensor Driver  (4.4.228.0) Fingerprint Driver got installed but Security Manager and Face Recognition software is not installing.When trying to install Security Manager its saying "This Software is not supported on this system". Its not possible because I have used the same software earlier. Even I tried to install previous version of Security Manager which I downloaded 2 years back and woked fine also. But getting the same error. I am not able to understand how to resolve the issue? Can anyone please help me? System - Probook 4540sOS - Win Prof 7 ( 64 bit) Thanks,Suvendu

  • ITunes 64 bit will not install on Windows 7 (64-Bit)

    I downloaded the 64bit version if iTunes (itunes64setup.exe), and when I went to install it, it went through most of the installation procedure and it stated that I should "download the 64 bit version of the iTunes software" (which as I said before, I already did).
    I did the "delete the temp folder" bit, and that did not help. I would like to be able to just update my iPhone from anything other than my Netbook. So what should I do. A nice set of "step by step" instructions would help.
    I already searched the "Support" section, and I could not find ANYTHING on the 64 bit version of iTunes. So I followed every instruction on "problems with installing iTunes" that related to the 32 bit just to make sure.
    So basically, the "64 bit software" is reading like it is the "32 bit software" and I have downloaded the software and re-downloaded it 3 more times. Same problem each time.

    Same problem for me. iTunes 64bits instlls well up to 80% of the process.
    then it says that some software components are missing.
    I was never able of completing my iTunes installation (on my new computer).
    earlier versions are no longer available and the iTunes for 32bits isn't accepted by Windows 7 64 bits.
    Can anyone at Apple explain what this is ?
    Has anyone experienced the same problem ?

  • Lightroom 4.1 will not install

    Anyone having trouble installing the new lightroom 4.1? I keep getting and error that I do not have sufficient space or privlidges. I do have plenty of space and privlidges. I have tried this on Windows 7 Pro and windows 7 home. I have also tried to run the install as Administrator.
    Suggestions for resolving? I have never had problems with a Lightroom install.

    That is very weird.  Installing is simple.
    1. Open your Lightroom 4 and when the software update dialog pops up click “download.” This will take you to Adobe’s download page
    2. Click on “proceed to download” and “download now.”
    3. Save the file to the desktop (so it is easier to find it). The download should take about 3 minutes or less.
    4. Double click on the installer, follow the step-by-step instructions.
    If this does not work, I would unistall altogether, and try again from the Adobe Lightroom update dialogue box.  Hope this helps.

  • Device driver ref cd will not install on win xp

    I am trying to install Labview 8.0 device drive reference cd on my win xp computer.  Labview 8.0 installed fine.  The device driver reference cd starts up, says it is looking for win explorer 4.0 or newer, then gives a message to go to microsoft to install win explorer and stops the installation.  I have version 6.0.2900 of explorer installed.  Any suggestions on how to get around this issue?
    Please email response to [email protected]  Thanks.

    Hi jworkley-
    Have you had success in installing the same device driver CD on other machines?  There is the possibility that your installer CD is corrupt, but all of the drivers are available for download from ni.com.  Which drivers do you need specifically?  For example, NI-DAQmx 8.0 and NI-VISA 3.4.1 are available for seperate download and installation.  This method will be quicker and will help you avoid installing software you wouldn't otherwise need.
    Hopefully this helps-
