Probably installing software on my PC

I just purchased several software applications, and downloaded to my PC but when I go to install them they all come up with an error that says "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You might not have the appropriate permissions to access this file. Does anyone know how to fix this?

  • How to install software when no finder?

    I can't get Finder to open. It has been open just a few times since I upgraded to Lion and now I can't get it at all.
    How do I install software when I can't move a file to the application folder via Finder?

    1) Why the search engine isn't working to find similar discussions, I don't know. I tried for 10 minutes to find this problem and nothing showed up until I posted my discussion. This is probably making all the problems look much bigger because we can't find prior discussions.
    2) After posting my discussion, other similar discussions were shown in the right sidebar. One suggested a Force Quit of Finder. When I did this, I discovered 7 or 8 windows of various Finder flavors were open, but none of them showed up on any of my screens (using Mission Control AND F9 to look at my other screens).
    It seems that if too many windows of Finder are open, we can't open more? Makes sense to me, so I manually closed them all (the message that popped up from Force Quit did not close anything).
    Now I can open Finder from the icon in the toolbar.
    I waited to install Lion, but this the third bug that is eating my time. I guess I should have waited longer for some fixes to be posted.

  • HT6114 My iMac seems to have frozen during the update- how long should I expect the update to take? The 'installing software update' bar is still showing itself working but has been stuck in the same position for over an hour.

    My iMac seems to have frozen during the update- how long should I expect the update to take? The 'installing software update' bar is still showing itself working but has been stuck in the same position for over an hour. Any thoughts?

    Update2: There is something very wrong with wireless on mountain lion recovery. I don't know what the problem is, but this link may explain:
    http://osxdaily.com/2012/08/10/os-x-mountain-lion-10-8-1-beta-released-for-dev-t esting-may-include-wi-fi-fix/
    Wireless recovery would start out with over 25 hours estimated and kept on failing. It turns out to be a two step process of downloading a few Mbytes then a 4Gbyte .dmg file, but I couldn't even download the Mbyte file. I bought the thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adapter, plugged it in, restarted recovery and download of a little more than 4Gbytes took less than an hour. My limiting factor was probably comcast home internet rate of 12Mbps. The wi-fi wireless connection should be able to do over 100Mbps, so wireless shouldn't be much slower than wired, except wi-fi wireless is broken. Now that ML is installed and updated, wi-fi seems fine now, as I am using it right now, but I haven't tried downloading a big file yet.
    Don't use wi-fi wireless for Mountain Lion recovery.

    My macbook air is stuck at the "installing software updated" screen while installing update for the osX. What should I do?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If your Mac has been installing software updates for a long time, Software Update is probably frozen. Hold the Power button until your MacBook Air turns off, and turn it on again. OS X should start up.

  • Connected ipod before installing software

    I connected my ipod before installing software, now i get the folder icon and exclamation mark and then it turns off. Also the updater seems to freeze and say not valid for my ipod. How do i get it working, it;s new out of the box but won't work, pls help.
    ipod video 60g   Windows XP  

    First of all. A work of pure genius.
    Second I'd say try the five R's which can be found here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/
    Also delete anything that has to do with ipod (besides itunes) from the computer. Start anew. Try even restoring your computer to the nearest restore date.
    Then, open up your new ipod box, reach in and grab out the INSTRUCTION MANUAL. Now, the INSTRUCTION MANUAL is usually used prior to doing anything with a product. Even a quick run through will give you a basic idea of how to use your newly purchased expensive product. In this manual has instructions. Can you believe that?! They tell you EVERYTHING you need to do to have your ipod working correctly. WOW!
    Enjoy!
    p.s. If none of that works, then I'd say to go here: http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/ because your ipod is probably defective and you should get a new one.

  • Installing leopard, error : cannot install software on this computer

    hi
    i have a macbook 13 inch, new, it's been one month bought it.
    i have tiger 10.4.11 and i want to upgrade to leopard.
    i had this install disk ( leopard 10.5).
    the problem is that, while installing, when i choose the language, an error pop up saying:" cannot install software on this computer"
    i have an intel macbook of course
    plz help
    thx

    Most of the problems I see of this nature are being caused by people trying to use a "Drop-In" upgrade DVD that was designed for a specific machine.
    The problem is that some people think they can run any 'friends' upgrade DVD to upgrade their Mac also.
    If this is what's happening, and your computer is really only a month old, then you probably qualify for some type of upgrade from Apple. Or you will have to buy a retail version of Leopard to upgrade your machine.

  • Installing Software Utilizing Screen Sharing

    Hi
    I recently gave my sister-in-law a MacBook and frequently have to tweak it using screen sharing as she travels a lot is not very computer literate.
    Question: Is it possible to install software via screen share - she somehow lost her copy of pages (has keynote and numbers) and I would like to reinstall.
    Thanks

    There are two issues here, one is installing over screen share and the second is licensing.
    The Family Pack does not cover computers outside your household.
    From http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB943Z/A
    The Family Pack Software License Agreement allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple software on up to a maximum of five (5) Apple-labeled computers at a time *as long as those computers are located in the same household and used by persons who occupy that household*. By “household” we mean a person or persons who share the same housing unit such as a home, apartment, mobile home, or condominium, including students who are primary residents of that household but reside at a separate on-campus location.
    When you gave her the MacBook you were in a grey area of the law, as the software was licensed for use in your household and may not be transferable, unless you transfer the whole licence to her household - in which case you would need a new copy...
    Of course if you still own the MacBook and have merely lent it to your sister in law then it probably is still licensed...
    Possible to install over screen sharing, but you would need to copy over the installation files over to her computer.

    Without proper system information and other details like what files you work with  nobody can tell you much. From corrupted prefs to issues with your PS swap file to actual problems with the fiel storage this could be anything.

  • Eclipse loses installed software after update. How to manage?

    Whenever eclipse gets updated with `pacman -Syu` I lose all my installed software. As you can imagine, this is really annoying because when I start eclipse there are zombie buttons in the UI that no longer do anything because those plugins aren't installed anymore (at least not from eclipse's point of view). I'm assuming those buttons appear in the UI due to some eclipse-auto-generated configs that remain in my workspace. Is there a way to upgrade and *not* lose installed software? (I'm talking about software installed using update sites within eclipse)
    EDIT: The only way that I know how to solve the problem is to remove the .metadata folder from my workspace then recreate my perspective layout from scratch, redo all my settings in preferences, and reinstall all the plugins I want. That's obviously not something I want to keep doing every time eclipse gets updated.
    EDIT: After reinstalling Spring MVC plugins eclipse crashes after startup. I tried downgrading to the previous version of eclipse from pacman's cache, reinstalled Spring MVC, and now it's still crashing.

  • HP C1680 fails to install Software

    Can you please help
     I have just reinstalled my operating system Windows 7 6- bit OS and needed to reinstall my printer HP Photosmart C6180 All in One. When I first got my new PC( Dell XPS 501L windows 7 Intel core i5. 243M  2.40GHz)  I originally install the whole package with no issues.
    after the reinstall of the OS, this is issue I was I getting when I tried to reinstalled the HP application (AIO_CDA_FSW_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe )
    Error message:-
    C:\Users\andylouey\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS4864\setu​p\HPzPNP.ice.
     I have done the following:
    Tried to install from an old download of the software.  Result Failed to install message as above.
    Tried the original install CD and also tried to use them in various compatibility modes. Result Failed.
    Downloaded the critical updates from HP solved the above error message result the above error message was solved.
    Downloaded the latest install software program for my HP printer from the HP website tried again to install failed
    Ran the HP Scan doctor reported that the printer drivers are all working asked it to run the scan program it reported that it need the full install of the C1680 software to run this
    I got the download again ran it. It extracts the file then just disappears and looking at the task manager there is not install running. So again failed
    For the second time I downloaded the HP installer network printer wizard but this failed and just keeps going round in circles> It finishes the download gets to the extracting point and then goes back to the identify printer( which is listed) then goes back once again and downloads the install software.
    Other steps I have taken. I used the old installation disk to do a complete uninstall of all the drivers and software  using Utilities> CCC> Uninstall_ L2.bat . This wored and uninstalled the printer and drivers and I think any remaining software.  I also deleted all the %TEMP% files that my Laptop would allow.
    Then once again I I used the install wizard first without the USB cable disconnected then the wizard asked me to plug it in. I plugged it in and HP Wizard found the printer and downloaded the appropriate software completed the download and extracted it and then NOTHING.
    I have also downloaded the critical update:-
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloa​dIndex?softwareitem=mp-126392-2&cc=uk&dlc=en&lc=en​...
    Can you suggest a solution help. In my view I need to start from scratch and remove all traces of any HP software and drivers and start over. My only issue with this I have done this and still have the same issues.  If I go to Microsoft uninstall utility there isn’t anything to uninstall.
     Thanks in advance for your reply.
    PS. HP wizard has finished downloading for the fourth time and looping to discovering the device again :-( HELP!!!!!!!!
    Thanks in adbance for your replies Andy

    Hi
    Thank you for your reply and your advice and help
     If you look at my help request aboveI have described that I have done your suggetion and yet there are still traces of HP on my hard drive and I am still haveing the same issues.
    Below are the steps you have referred to which I covered in my original request :-
    Other steps I have taken. I used the old installation disk to do a complete uninstall of all the drivers using CCC> Utilities and Uninstall_L3 . I also deleted all the %TEMP% files  (7z) that my Laptop would allow.
    Then once again I I used the install wizard first wit the USB cable disconnected then the wizard asked me to plug it in. I plugged it in and HP Wizard found the printer and downloaded the appropriate software completed the download and extracted it and then NOTHING. Except the drivers were installed and the printer was  shown in the devices and printers.
    I have also downloaded the critical update:-

    I can print to the printer both wirelessly and via the USB port. But the Solution center will not install just keeps looping. ie idenifies the printer downloads the latest sofware and extracts it then just dissapears of the screen. Nothing comes up and there are no HP programs running in the applications task manager and no processes either.
    Thank you in advance for your reply. Regards Andy

  • Drivers from various HP pre-installed software

    Hello,
    I Have an HP ENVY 6 1040EW Ultrabook.
    Because I had issues with my windows system I had to reïnstall windows with disks because a manual factory reset was not possible because of dammaged drivers.
    There where no disks for this particular laptop so i had to use normal windows 7 recovery disks.
    My problem:
    I recovered Windows 7 with my recovery disks and ofcourse my old pre-installed software was not on my PC.
    But I really liked HP coolsense, Beats Audio, HP connection manager and the HP service software to store safely my usernames and passwords. But I can't find the software on the HP website.
    Tnx for reading and answering my question.
    Greetings,
    Bart

    Hi, Bart:
    See if this IDT audio driver from your PC's support page installs the Beats software too.

    Many Thanks, Kurt.
    I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
    I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
    You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)

  • Error 16389 running a Task Sequence to install software

    We've run into multiple WinXPProSP3 computers generating error code 16389 when trying to run a TS.  After searching on Google, we found this, 
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/smsandmom/archive/2007/10/29/sccm-2007-task-sequence-fails-drive-letter-not-displayed.aspx
    , which led to another article to modify a RegKey,  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} , to add a key of UpperFilters, with a value of PartMgr.  The key WAS missing on the machines with
    the error, and, adding that key and value DOES fix the problem.  This key and value seem to be default for the OS.
    However, searching Google for that RegKey has a LOT of suggestions to delete that key and value, due to issues with USB Thumbdrives and iPods not being seen when plugged in--so, it seems that there may be a conflict.
    Does anyone know of a fix for Error 16389 without having to add that key, if it's going to cause other problems?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Will you please past the detailed errors in the smsts.log?
    From your description your are using TS to install software right?
    If so you should first make sure this software package meats the following requirement when it was deployed through TS:
    this program can be installed under local system account.
    this program can be installed without any user interaction (such as: press next button).
    this program will not force computer reboot, it allows sccm ts to manage the reboot.
    If your OSD TS return 16389 exit code, you can try to change the volume license keys. Because once i have seem this error and it was solved by changing the volume license key.
    Hope this will help.
    Thanks

  • Install software for Deskjet 2540 will not load on Windows XP Home edition SP3 machine

    I have successfully connected a new Deskjet 2540 printer to a Windows 7 machine, and IPAD Air, and an XP Pro laptop.
    I cannot get the install software to load on and XP Home edition SP3 machine. I have tried all of the HP remedies that I can find, over  period of two days, but the installation fails every time with the message "Installation failed. The software required for your printer could not be installed".
    What can be done?  

    Hi,
    Thanks  for  your second installment of help suggestions.
    I started check disk as you proposed and it ran happily for some hours with evidence of progress. However eventually I found the computer stopped with a number of suggestions for restarting. I tried all of these and some others, but got no further than the first Windows picture. At this point the machine restarts, and goes through the same process. 
    The printer problem, as you can see has unfortunately become secondary to trying to recover the system.
    What I propose is to  try to read the disc in question on another computer, and extract the important data files to a safe place. Then to return the disc to its own machine and use the recovery CD, to try to get the machine to recover with the minimum of loss. If this succeeds, I might even find that the printer software then loads without problem. There is a big IF there, and I won't hold my breath.
    None of this relates to the printer problem, and fortunately i have three other devices running which are happily connected to the printer.
    I just wnted to explain why there will be no further feedback for a while. I will take my time with the recovery process.
    Thanks for all of your help. I have just been unlucky.
    Regards
