ML installation stops - couldn't download components

Hello, the iMac has had problems with the automatic software upgrade for a while. Small file sizes are ok, but wiht large downloads (more than 1 GB) comes a message (when trying to open the dmg) saying that the software couldn't be verified, wrong count (I am translating from the german message).
Now I have downloaded and installed the Mountain Lion successfully on a macBookAir and on another iMac.
The problem iMac won't allow anything: neither could I reinstall lion freom a dvd, nor install the combo update 10.7.4, I downloaded the mountain lion several times and never got over the first two minutes of the installation (couldn't download necessary components.
I trief the installation after having bootet from a USB-Stick with an install dmg on the usb stick, (couldn't do it (can't download missing components).
Now I'm at my wit's end.
Can anybody help?

Yeah, I wish I could, Although everything important is backed up maually I don't back up the OS. I just want to avoid having to do a clean install.
Digging though the net I found that re downloding the ML installer could fix it. I actually got past the "Can't download..." error message with the newly downloaded package, but then got a new error message re missing components... And that i should contact the software maufacturer...
So right now it is "downloading additional components" Another hour to go...
This process doesn't fill me with great confidence in my mac...

You can only use apps downloaded from the App store, not via a browser. There is no Flash for any iOS device including the iPod.

You may want to try using the Adobe Cleaner Tool and try downloading again:

On startup CC tells me to install an update. It downloads to 5% and then brings the message: "installation-program couldn't get access to critical file/folder. Try installing again. Error code 42". Any advice?

Coldfusion 64 bit windows installer stops working after recent microsoft update

Coldfusion 64 bit windows installation stops working after recent microsoft updates and how I worked around it.
My question is at the end.
Trying to deploy coldfusion 9 enterprise 64 bit trial version onto a Windows 2003 64 bit datacenter OS with all OS updates from MS (as of 4-7-2011).
Steps taken (remember, this is all 64 bit):
1. Installed the base OS which was slipstreamed with SP2.
2. Checked w/ microsoft and installed 63 OS updates.
3. Launch the CF9 trial exe.
4. As soon as the first screen finishes (the one that looks like it is extracting files) then the second screen pops up (the one that simply says CF Adobe Coldfusion 9) and the progress bar quickly moves 95% to the right and the install application quits. No error, no nothing. No log file either.
5. After a moment of incredulous silence (and retrying/rebooting, etc), I started to google it. I found nothing. However, I did find a post (thanks dspent!) that was helpful in that it told how he was able to get at a log file of sorts, by pre-extracting the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file and launching the adobe_cf.exe by hand. (Dspent's install snafu was different than mine, but his post was very valuable and got me started in the right direction.)
6. Got a copy of rarunzipper and extracted the coldfusion_9_WWE_win64.exe file.
7. From the windows directory created by step 6, I launched adobe_cf.exe.
8. Same thing (the install application quits. No error, no nothing. No log file either.).
9. I examine the hs_err_pidxxxx.log file (where the xxxx is a number).
10. I see inside that file an ominous message: "A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime" then "Problematic frame ntdll.dll" and then "The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code".
11. OK, so now I am thinking ntdll.dll !! Native code !! It is like Java is telling me that for some reason it can't dance with the OS.
12. On a hunch, I decided to test a CF install again on a server with just the base install of W3K3 64 SP2 (ie: skipping step 2 above this time).
13. Bingo! That install works.
14. Therefore, one of the 63 patches I had downloaded from MS had triggered a problem with the CF installer.
15. Back on the first server (the one with the MS security patches installed and the one that CF won't install on). In the CF file adobe_cf.lax (one of the files extracted in step 6) there is a line that mentions where the install gets it's java. Find that file, and check java version installer is using. It is using 1.6.0_14-b08.
16. Off to the Java website, and there is a newer version of java (1.6.0_24-b07). Downloaded and installed it.
17. Modify a line in adobe_cf.lax :
   before
     lax.nl.current.vm=resource\\jre\\bin\\java.exe
   after
     lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\program files\\java\\jre6\\bin\\java.exe
(that assumes that you let step 16 install to the default location)
Save the file.
18. Run the install ... ** IT WORKS ** !
Obviously, the built in java provided with the CF installer is no longer compatible with some change introduced by some recent MS update on the W2K3 64b SP2 platform.
And now the interesting part. Although I forced the installer to used the new java, it did not incorporate it into the cf build (ie: in jvm.config, you still see c:/coldfusion9/runtime/jre AND the version of java.exe that is in that directory is the original version, not the newer version I forced the installer to use).
On the surface, CF seems to run OK, but I have not done any application testing yet.
And finally my
** QUESTION **
Would it be appropriate to simply point the java.home var to the new java directory? I see that the directory structures and files are not exactly the same (close though) so I certainly don't want to break things by doing this, but instinct tells me that if the installer broke using the older version, then something else is gonna break down the road if I don't use the new version. On the other hand, the differences in the directories and files is enough that it makes me very nervous, with my limitied java skill set, to make this decision.
Thanks in advance!!
Byron

Hi Byron,
Wow great post no doubt much of the information will be useful for those on Win03 SP2 +. Have to say not come across similar problem on Win08 r2 SP1 +.
So to your question. Adobe security bulletin (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/894/cpsid_89440.html) recommends running CF8 and CF9 with JVM 1.6.0_24. The bulletin does not say how to do that. I take you installed JDK and not just JRE 1.6.0_24? Post install of JDK follow these steps:
Stop CF - SERVICES.msc stop "ColdFusion 9 Application Server".
Take a copy of CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config - so you got a backup.
Edit CF\runtime\bin\jvm.config find line "java.home=" and comment it out eg:
#java.home=C:/ColdFusion9/runtime/jre
Add new line like so and save jvm.config:
java.home=C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_24/jre
Note there the slashes and the location of the JRE (runtime) - you need to point to the one in JDK because the other JRE in C:\Program Files\Java\jre6 will be missing a DLL.
Start CF via SERVICES.msc.
HTH, Carl.

Hi @Lize2 ,
I see that you are having issues installing the printer, the installer stops working. Thanks for providing that detailed information. I would like to help you out today.
It sounds like something is blocking the software from installing, since just the driver are being installed.
Disconnect the USB cable, run the uninstall from the CD.
Touch the Windows key and the E key to access the computer window. Right click on the CD for the printer, left click open in a new window, double click on uninstall.
Do a msconfig to turn off any startup programs that might be interfering with the installation.
Click on Start, in the search box type in Run, enter, then type in Msconfig, click OK.
Click the Services tab. Click to select the Hide All Microsoft Services check box. Click Disable All, and then click OK.
Then click on the Start Up tab at the top. Click on disable all.
Reboot the computer.
Temporarily turn off any Antivirus software and Real Time Scanning. Especially if you are using Mcafee.
Then run the installation again. Right click on the install and select Run as Administrator.
Test the printer again.
Then go back into msconfig and Enable the All Microsoft Services and Enable All on the Start Up tab. Turn the Antivirus software back on again and the Real Time Scanning.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a great day!
Thank You.

Movie replay stops because of download pause

When downloading a movie on my Mac Mini the download gets stuck every few minutes and then moves forward without any interaction from my end. When viewing the movie while downloading (no matter how far the download is) the movie freezes while the download stops.
The download speed is around 100Mb/sec - a complete HD movie with 4.7 GB shows only 30 min for download - so speed is not the issue. Also there are no other apps open, backup not running. Had this issue with multiple internet providers so it seems not coming from that side.
When the movie is completely downloaded the movie runs better, but even then has some minor stops.

I would first try reinstalling your backup copy of your previous OSX version if you can and then try reinitiating the installation of Lion from there. However, if that doesn't work at all, then the stoppage of the download by the power failure most likely corrupted your harddrive. I myself would then take the safest course and reformat the harddrive by booting from your Original Installation Disks and reformatting the harddrive from the Disk's "Disk Utility". Then go thru the installation of the previous operating system to the point where you can once again proceed with the download and installation of Lion.
Hope this helps
