Many Problems, Latest is Quick Install

I hope that someone can advise me. I have a Zire 72 which I was not having any trouble with. I upgraded to a Palm Centro Smartphone and after a week of using it; decided that it was too small and I returned it. My problems started there.
The calendar stopped syncing. I could edit the desktop and I could edit the handheld. But it just got stuck at backing up the calendar; once I even left it overnight thinking it would finish. No luck after 13 hours.
We deleted the desktop software and what we thought was every trace of the Palm from our computer. Then went to Palm.com and downloaded the most recent desktop software for the Zire 72. It uploaded fine, but put everything back on the desktop that was there before I hotsync-ed it (which I thought was pretty unusual.) Hit the hot sync button and uploaded everything, but the calendar would still not sync. Now I am getting fatal errors on my handheld about lines not being there and the whole thing had to be reset by a warm reset. We decided to load the software from the CD so we deleted everything and started over. Same results. Ok, now I took my CD and put it on my work computer as it has never had Palm software on it. Same results. Calendar would not sync. Came home, moved everything to the SD card and did a hard reset.
Hot sync-ed the handheld asking the desktop to overwrite the now naked handheld. That worked great. Everything is here. Everything on handheld works. Even sync-ed it again after adding new items to the calendar; works great. BUT....
Now I cannot do anything on my computer. This is so nuts. I try to right click on a picture to move it to the Quick install and an error box pops up behind the picture I am clicking on and tries to prepares to install the palm desktop and does something with the registry. then nothing happens. You can't send the picture anywhere. If I try to drag icon A into Folder B on my computer's desktop, the same thing happens. If I click on the Quick Install icon, it flashes of and on almost faster than you can blink several times and then tells me it is busy and to reboot the computer and try again. (which we have done.) If I can get the computer to let me "send" my picture to the Quick Install feature, I see this error message: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! abnormal program termination
I've had this palm for more than 4 years with relatively few problems. We've had this computer for three years or more and have not had any compatibility problems between the two things until we brought that Palm Centro into the mix. Please help a very frustrated woman. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Welcome to the Palm Forums,
Forgive this, but in order to help you I need to know the current version of Palm Desktop and OS of you PC. Vista or XP.
The version of Palm Desktop that is on the CD does not have a quick install. But has an install tool. But to get everything fixed and working correctly I would like to know the above info please.

Try to Restore with iTunes on your computer. If this does not work, there is full Warranty. Make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution.

Having many problem with wifi....after installing lion......it connect with wifi but not with Internet and at the same time iPad 2, iPhone 4 works smooth......help......I have MacBook air without thunderbolt and mac mini

I had the same problem last night. Boot into OSX and reboot the router - fine. Boot into Windows and wrong. Here were my fixes:
Firstly, I kept all the settings on my router solid. Just leave them as they are. Boot into OSX and check the Network settings and make a note of your IP address and the router's IP address.
Second, boot into Windows, then open up your wireless connection settings and navigate through to the properties where you can set the IP address.
Third: Set the IP address to your routers IP address changing the last set of digits to a value between 5 and 255 (I have 8 devices so I set the last two digits to 10.) This will keep the IP static.
Tab through the Mask settings to default those.
Then set the default gateway to your router's IP address.
Check that the Network Adapter's setting has IPv6 disabled (uncheck the box)
Finally: Set the primary DNS server to 8.8.8.8 then the secondary to 8.8.4.4 and then reboot the router.
That's what got my connection running.

When starting to install they stop the process and say encountered many problems try re installing

When starting to install they stop the process and say "encountered many problems try re installing" and system not modified

Try this:
1. Boot from your Panther Installer Disk. After the installer loads select Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled, if supported.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process will take 30 minutes to an hour or more depending upon the drive size.
7. Once the formatting has completed quit DU to return to the installer. Proceed with the installation of Panther.

Palm Quick Install in Windows 7

OK I have posted that you can use the Palm desktop 4 versions on windows 7 and they work. They do but the only way to load a file was to right click on it and chose send to / Palm Powered (TM) Handheld. I decided to see if I could make everything work normally. I managed to accomplish it. I did not need to hack the registry either. The first problem was getting the Palm Quick Install icon to show up on the desktop and then open up the program. When I loaded the TX software on two other computers it did not load with the Palm Desktop and DTG icons.
1: I went to start/all programs/palm folder/ and right clicked on the Palm Quick Install and sent it to the desktop. It went there but would not open on one of the computers. I tried a couple of times. I then right clicked on the icon and choose Restore Previous Versions. I chose the compatibility tab and selected the help me choose the settings. I did this several times and also rebooted the computer and unchecked the open with administrator in properties. I was finally rewarded with the Palm Quick install opening up when I clicked on it.
2. Clicking on a palm file or dragging it into the Palm Quick install application had no effect. A warning came up stating (There was a problem sending the command to the program.) I plugged this into Google and came up with several sites. There is in Vista and 7 a file association of some sort missing. I was reading on how to hack into the registry and really did not want to waste any more time on it. I was about to give up when I decided to attempt a Microsoft solution. They have all kinds of fixit registry programs for all kinds of tasks. I typed in Microsoft file type fixit in Google. They have a little program that scans your system and then gives you several choices to select. I selected them all when the choice came up. When it finished I exited out of the web page and clicked on a palm file. It worked. I deleted the file and attempted to drag it into the Palm Quick Install this also worked. File and Folder fixit

Great! Glad to help.
AFAIK, there is no such version - 6.2.2 is the latest Access made before ceasing support for the program.
MicroSoft has had a typo on their support site for a long time now. Is this the version number you are referring to?

Many problems and questions with CC and PS CC 2014. HELP!!!

I'm having way too many problems with this whole Creative Cloud system, and PS CC 2014 in particular.
The courtesy of a response from a qualified Adobe staff member would be greatly appreciated by this long-time loyal patron of Adobe products.
1. When and why was my membership downgraded from Single App to Photographer?
     I signed up to Single App CC almost a year ago, and am able to access Typekit, 20GB of cloud storage and all the other features of Individual App membership, but not Market Assets. When I attempt to download any CC Market Assets I get a message stating "Market Assets are a premium feature" and "is only available to paid Creative Cloud members".
      I must still be subscribed to Single App because the subscription payment receipt I received a few weeks ago states: "We received payment for your Creative Cloud single-app membership for Photoshop (one-year) subscription, and your membership will renew on 30-July-2014 (PT)".
     The CC website states that Market Assets are not included in the Individual "Photography" subscription level (which seems to be a relatively new category), but I am clearly paying for Single App membership as indicated on my receipt. However, when I check my account, I'm listed as a Photographer subscriber.
     What gives?
2. Lightroom 5 is no longer listed as "Installed" in CC Apps window.
     I installed Lightroom 5 at Adobe's invitation last fall. Every time there is a CC update, the CC App widow shows that Lightroom 5 is not installed. So, I reinstall it, and the App list behaves properly until the next "update", which de-installs the app again.
     How do I keep Lightroom 5 installed?
3. My Extensions are not accessible in PS CC 2014
     I migrated my presets from PS CC to PS CC 2014, but the Extensions are still greyed out (Windows>Extensions). I updated Extension Manager and synced the desktop CC app, which downloaded some plug-ins to CC 2014, but not the Adobe Watermark extension (v2.2.3). Also, because Window>Extension is greyed out, I can't access AdobeExchange via CC 2014 to download any possible updates.
     Why can't I access my extensions in PS CC 2004?
4. CC Files wont stop syncing
     I thought I'd try uploading something to Creative Cloud to see what this storage feature could offer me. CC has been attempting to sync my files for aver a day now, chewing up bandwidth and seriously slowing down my internet connection to other content-dense sites. How do I stop the syncing process? I can pause it, but not stop it. I only have one file (a jpg image) in my Creative Cloud Files, which has a green check mark, so I don't understand what is being synced and why. I toogle syncing off and on again, but all I get is the spinning wheel. I've now turned off syncing, so this feature is now of no use to me.
     What am I doing wrong?
5. How do I make the previous version of PS CC the default PS app in Mac OS 10.8.5
     How do I deactivate PS CC 2014 as the default PS app?
     My workflow regularly includes the Oil Paint filter and Adobe Watermark extension to produce the images I am currently marketing. Therefore, I prefer to use PS CC v14.2.1, and not PS CC 2004, as my default PS app. Mac OS10.8.5 want to open all my RAW and PSD files in PS CC 2014. I change the "Open With" preference in the "Get Info" window to PS CC 14.2.1, but it immediately reverts to PS CC 2014.
I have several other issues with the latest CC platform, but lets see if I can get these ones solved before moving forward.
This whole Creative Cloud process is becoming very frustrating and overly time consuming, and seems to be much more complex than most users need or want (based on the comments and problems I read in this forum). I like the ongoing bug-fixes and camera/lens support updates, but the whole multi-app, internet-dependent format has gotten out of control, producing more problems than solutions, at least for me. This 2014 update makes it impossible to follow the workflow I've developed over the past several years. PixelBender is complex and non-intuitive, and does not effectively replace the Oil Paint filter. My extensions don't work. And now, the CC app won't let me access all the features I think I'm paying for. It seem to me these recent "upgrades" are half-baked. I've now spent countless hours trying to fix the problems imposed by CC 2014.
These "Community Discussions" sometimes take days to produce any sort of assistance, helpful or otherwise, and Adobe does not have the decency to offer direct access to customer service personnel to solve these problems.

I too, have many of the same problems: constantly reminded to "Install" the apps I have already done so (and paid for); Market Assets asks for me to become a paid member (I am); Adobe Bridge is missing from the apps page. I have reinstalled CC several times. Frustrating is the kindest word I can say--I seem to spend more time reading the "help" and discussion boards rather than working on photos. Dear Adobe, wake up and give us some solutions here! I too, have been using Adobe PS for years and UGH! CC is a mess and truly a bad experience for me! I apologize to the user above (RGMeyer) I could not be helpful, rather I am only adding fuel to your frustration.

Windows Vista Ultimate Quick Install for Tungsten E2

Well, I have a Tungsten E2, which I use commenly, but not often. I just got a my dad's old computer for Christmas (which is a huge upgrade from mine, which was made in the 1990's I think), and he got me Windows Vista Ultimate for it. I can do everything with it; Palm Desktop, Hotsync, etc. except for using Palm Quick Install. I really don't feel like posting a picture, so I will just describe it. First I have to allow it to run, and then it checks Microsoft for a solution to use it. After that it says "palmOne Quick Install has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
|Close Program|
`````````````
I have noticed around the site that many people are having problems with Vista, but I haven't seen any with this particular problem.
Thanks for reading,

Many problems with MSI Control Center

have a lot MSI mobo
I still P45 & P45 Diamond Memory lover.
the problem of their old dual core center was that sometimes bug "debug assertion failed" came ..
but now I have 5 mobo 1155:
msi Z77
msi b75
msi z68
msi H67
msi h61
in all of these motherboards, the start of the OS, the latest version of control center never keeps the settings that I have saved as a "default"!
for example, the Z77 does not maintain the memory for the fan cpu, while fan1 & fan2 are active, but not to the minimum value that I had memorized ..
the z68 instead only stores the value of the cpu fan
the H67 does not store anything ..
and also the other way!
indicted versions of MSI CC are those where the adjustment of the fans is not only numeric, but also with the graph ..
I seem to recall that older versions of CC II without the graphics did not have so many problems in the management of the fans (but I'm not sure about this)
I do not know if I'm wrong something in the settings of the BIOS, or the software itself!
and I wonder if the ControlCenter has a bug so big, that users do not make a mass protest to the manufacturer directly!
I hope you can help me positively.
I am very disappointed with this software MSI, I would be a little desire to leave my beloved brand ...
thanks
max
p.s. I can understand for the "old" h61/h61, but it is absurd that the Z77 motherboards & b75 does not have control of all the connectors on the PCB Tachometer & PWM ... not to mention the z68 should be the most valuable of all
(as opposed to other manufacturers that optimize much better implementation "fan control")

Quote from: Froggy Gremlin on 05-March-13, 12:39:59
You have been around here long enough to know this is a user to user community and can't do anything about BIOS or S/W problems.
With 16 MSI machines here in the hobby/test room, not one has CC or LU5 on them. For machines I want to control any fans on, I simply install an aftermarket fan controller to do the job. You might try the SpeedFan utility. That seems to be popular.
Talk of jumping brands falls on deaf ears here, and is your choice because of unhappiness with optional S/W.
yes, I have been long enough, but the forums are also used to find solutions ..
maybe some user could answer to me better than you, do not you think?
and this forum is not managed directly by MSI lately?
use a fan controller is not a solution to the problem!
you can not really think that just because you use the external controller.
if MSI creates software with the same problem on all chipsets,
then MSI should fix this software!
otherwise does not produce even, which is less disappointment around.
for my opinion then check the BIOS is much better than using anti-aesthetic Rheobus ..
optional S / W is part of the motherboard itself, while SpeedFan is a third-party utility ... the situation is the same..
I will open a ticket, but it is absurd that MSI does not realize that their own software has this great Bug ..
you say you can not be faulted, and instead I think yes.
especially if you love MSI.
I with 7 Mobo MSI + 6 VGA MSI I can say I devoted customer, and always recommendMSI products to all around..
all software MSI are good, afterburned, video genie, fast boot, and also the ControlCenter II for the management of the cpu and ram is good software!
my anger is that there is only this damn small bug in the software fan control, and I do not understand that the manufacturer and users (inside and outside the forum) do nothing to have a solution!
Quote from: Bernhard on 05-March-13, 14:59:12
Why this sudden realisation that you are missing something on all the MSI boards that you acquired over the years.
Did you ever inform MSI about this at the time that you purchased each and every board ?
the reason is my laziness to contact customer support (and laziness to write here) that I missed until now.
is because with P45 diamond7memory lover Customer Support could not solve the problem.
and because H67 & h61 htpc that are in use a short time
and because z68 erain bench test that used very little time (due to living with my girlfriend) and I have to resell soon.
but now that I have just arrived Z77 & B75 I want to solve this problem.
and if I decided now-finally-maybe I had more important things to do, but now I realized that it is not possible that all boards have bad dialogue with MSI ControlCenter!

After Yosemite Update, Macbook Pro Frustratingly slow, along with many problems after

My Info:
Macbook Pro (2012)
2.4 GHz Intel Core i5
OS X 10.10.3 (14D136)
Memory: 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
186.54 GB free of 498.88 GB
Until the last OS X Update (Yosemite), I have had no problems with my almost three year old MacPro.
However, after the last update, I have so many problems with my mac, I just feel like throwing
it out the window.
Unfortunately, I did not have a backup prior to the update, but I backed up my photos and files, then proceeded
to follow apple's instructions (apple support chat) to erase the HD and re-install yosemite from online. Then, I backed up my files and photos from my external drive. (I used TIME MACHINE)
Fine in theory, but:
1. my iphoto library was somehow lost, nowhere to ever be found again
2. I suddenly have issues with my trackpad--the "double click" or "right" click refuses to work, I cannot drag and drop.
3. I have java runtime error messages even upon startup, without internet connection, even though I have already deleted anything and everything java related.
4. My safari is completely useless. Freezes even when only using one tab, must force quit every second.
5. My computer decides by itself when to zoom in and out of a page.
6. My apps are completely slow, I most always need to force quit them
7. My trash has many issues-- If putting a file in the trash, it says "moving file to trash" for hours on end without ever completing the action, also, if I try emptying the trash, it's the same story.
8. Settings. If I try to change a setting, it says "authenticating" for ever and ever without ever authenticating, and I am unable to change any settings.
I have talked to apple many times but have not yet reached a solution.
I have no other resolution at the moment, as I am in Taiwan for another month (My Chinese is limited and there are few, if none authentic Apple stores around)
I have one more month on my warranty so I can *possibly* take it in to a store when I return home, but I first wanted to ask here and see if anyone else stumbled upon the same issues, or if they had solutions.
Thank you!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a general summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a particular line of text to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
These are not specific instructions; just an overview. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time.
5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
You may have started up in safe mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. Load this linked web page (on the website "Pastebin.") The title of the page is "Diagnostic Test." Below the title is a text box headed by three small icons. The one on the right represents a clipboard. Click that icon to select the text, then copy it to the Clipboard on your computer by pressing the key combination command-C.
If the text doesn't highlight when you click the icon, select it by triple-clicking anywhere inside the box. Don't select the whole page, just the text in the box.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing command-V, then press return. The text you pasted should vanish immediately.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
[Process started]
        Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
        Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
        The test results are on the Clipboard.
        Please close this window.
[Process completed]
The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "The message contains invalid characters." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.

Too many problems-what's wrong with my machine or OS?

Lately I have had many problems with my computer and am not sure what is the cause. The list is
- apps crash (primarily pro apps - Final Cut Pro Studio apps)
- grey crash screen frequently
- black lines across the screen (video card issue?)
- sometimes broken looking icons (video card issue?)
- weird color problems with display (Great condition apple 23" Cinema display)
- odd asian characters mixed iwth english characters in the restart dialogue box
- screen will sometimes go black
- Motion 2.1 makes entire machine slow down (such as moving over dock icons)
- apps hang for a long time
- G5 fans spin more
Incidentally, S.M.A.R.T status is verified on both internal drives, ran disk utility and fixed permissions yielded no problems found, I installed a new Tiger OS (archive and install, saving users and network prefs) and still had the problems, and ran Disk Warrior and still have the problems.
Any suggestions folks? At my witts end. I want to say the video card could be at fault but how do you know if a video card has problems? is there a card utility like DISK UTILITY?
My config:
G5 Dual 2 GHZ/ 4 GB RAM/ two 250 GB SATAs/ Apple 23" Cinema display (last model, not aluminum)/ Apple 17" LCD Studio Display/ WACOM Intuos2/ Blackmagic Decklink Extreme Card/ ATI Radeon 9600 XT (in AGP slot)/ ATI Radeon 9200 (in PCI slot)

Hi, T. C.
If you are seeing the following message
that indicates a kernel panic.
If so, see my "Resolving Kernel Panics" FAQ. This FAQ includes step-by-step instructions for identifying and resolving some of the most common causes of kernel panics. The FAQ is a roadmap: start at the beginning and work systematically through the end, i.e. the "If all else fails..." section.
Good luck!

Firefox 5 has caused so many problems, I want to uninstall and go back to a previous version. how?

firefox 5 has caused so many problems, I want to uninstall and go back to a previous version. the problem is that one of the issues 5.0 has caused is an error message when I click on "add or remove " on my control panel, so I can't remove Firefox 5. I have downloaded and run 3 supposedly good "fixers", but nothing has corrected my error issue. how can I uninstall 5.0 if I can't open the "add or remove" option? edit

''I figured it was going to be FAFSA causing your problem.''
Install Portable Firefox 3.6.x to your hard drive for that one website. It won't affect your current Firefox installation at all. <br />

Is there a direct download link for AE 12.1? Many problems trying to update.

I haven't seen this issue resolved anywhere in the forum...
I have had so many problems and wasted a whole day (and a half) on trying to ressolve this when I should have been working.
No surprises that I have installed OS Mavericks recently. Yesterday I was prompted to update the Creative Cloud desktop app, which I did without issue.
I tried to open After Effects CC and got the infamous error everyone's been getting:
So after Googling, I saw that there had been a 12.0.1 patch, but that it was no longer nesessary to install as there is a new version 12.1 - but Creative Cloud Desktop shows that my software is up to date:
So I have been hunting for the direct links and managed to get hold of both the 12.0.1 and the 12.1 update files:
But when I try to run ether of them, I get this message:
I am the 'Administrator' and don't understand why I am getting this error.
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling all adobe products. On one occasion upon opening AE I got this error:
I've also tried updating through other CC software via the Help > Updates menu. In Photoshop and Premiere the option is greyed out, and in Bridge I get a similar Admin issue error:
So I am thinking perhaps I could try installing a direct download of the full version of 12.1 rather than an update. Does this exist anywhere? Any help would be hugely appreciated!
Thanks

> I am the 'Administrator' and don't understand why I am getting this error.
That message has nothing to do with whether you have administrator privlieges for your computer.
That message is telling you that whoever deployed your Adobe software as part of an enterprise deployment disabled the ability to install updates. This is something that you need to work out with the IT person who configured and deployed your volume-licensed Adobe software.
