Problems installing any ios software

in lume of ios 5 coming out i updated it from 4.2.10 to 5.0. i notice the battery life in my iphone 4 was draining alot. so i decided to udate to 5.0.1. after starting the update process i left the room and my niece got on the computer and apparently she unpluged my iphone from computer thinking i was only charging it. she decided to downgrade the ios on her i device from 5.0.1 back to 4.2.8 and in doing so she had to change some host file in windows system32 file to do that. she does not remember what the host file was before hand. because she unpluged my iphone in the middle of the update, i have the itunes logo and usb on the phone and itunes keeps giving me an error 3194 when trying to restore iphone. please help i need the phone.
thanks

Downgrading of the iOS requires (to the best of my knowlegde) jailbreaking the device.
Jailbreaking is not supported. Unfortunately, the best we can offer here is to restore the device as new.
Also, remove any entries in the host file that reference gs.apple.com

Problems installing any Adobe CS software

Hello.
I wanted to try out Photoshop, inDesign and Illustrator CS5.
I already had photoshop CS4 installed. However after installing windows 7 64 bit (I had windows vista 32 bit before) I have huge problems installing any adobe product.
I had to install photoshop over night and the next day it wasn't even ready. At the beginning of the installation it says it would take about 15 minutes but after reaching 20% it already says 155 minutes. before having windows 7 64 bit I had no problems installing photoshop CS4 but any adobe product I try to install now (either cs4 or cs5) needs extremely long to install (if it even finishes) I usually cancel because I have o hope it will actually finish since "needed" time is constantly growing during the installation.
My System :
- windows 7 64 bit
- intel core2quad 8300 (4x 2.5 Ghz)
- 7 GB Ram
- some medion motherboard
- not the best drive but still enough. (360 GB)
I'll try to burn the data on a DVD now but it can't be that my drive is that slow.
If anyone has the same problems, or have some advices / solutions, please answer,
thanks in advance.

I built a new computer so installed clean... but I have read that installing Win7 over anything else (upgrade) does not always work well compared to installing onto a freshly formatted drive

Iphone didnt install any ios itunes get error16

Iphone Stuck & didnt install any ios ? even itunes error16

I couldn't find any info on error 16, but found a lot on 1600s. You sure it wasn't 16__? Just in case, here are some steps:
Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
Error 1600, 1601, 1602
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps inthis article for details on troubleshooting security software.

I am having a problem installing the JDK Software. Please Help

Please help I am Having trouble installing my JDK software. I tried to make a simple program saying Hello World and the program fails to work because it can not find my class.
C:\Jfiles\DIR
ILoveJava.java
ILoveJava.class
C:\Jfiles\Javac ILoveJava.java
C:\Jfiles\Java ILoveJava
Exception in thread "main" Java.lang.NoclassDeffounderror
The Path seems to be set correctly because the Javac compiled.
I have tried a number of different ClassPath Definitions like C:\JDK.14\Lib\Tools.jar and ClassPath=.;C:\JDK.14\Lib\Tools.jar and ClassPath=. and ClassPath=
I made sure that the capitilization and the spelling was the same between the ILoveJava I specified in notepad and the program name.
I am also having trouble with JBuilder, Eclispe and NetBeans with finding Classes.
Another error that I received after I changed the ClassPath to ClassPath= .;C:\JDK1.4\bin\ was a
nosuchmethod error, When I tried to run the program I made using Java ILoveJava.
Is their any other problem like a conflict of some sort that could be causing this problem?
Could the problem be anything besides the ClassPath and Path Settings?
Please, help me? I really, really, need to learn Java. Thank You.

Hi all,
Sylonious, did you manage to sort this problem out? I have been experiencing similar problems. I think my problem was because I had many different versions of JDKs. I have done a complete re-install. I would be really grateful to you (and anyone else) for help with this problem.
I have re-installed JSDK1.4.2_03, set the "path" variable to "C:\JSDK1.4.2_03".
When I compile using "javac" I get an error saying "javac" is not recognised.
When I compile using "C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin\javac Freq.java" no error is thrown.
Every time I try to run a java file, I always get the NoClassDefFound error. When run with the -verbose option, files are loaded from C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_03\bin - is this correct?
I have removed all previous references to java in the registry editor.
Please help !

Vipul

Problems Installing Adobe CS2 software

Hi,
I purchased my iMac aswell as Adobe CS2 software back in September. I started installing the CS2 software (4 discs) and by the last disc, installation froze and the drive sounded like it was in a continuous search on the disc. So I had to reboot and eject the disc. This continued for 2 more tries. I contacted Adobe and they said it was a disc problem, so I exchanged my CS2 for another CS2 disc set. I completely erased the previous CS2 applications, reinstalled OSX and tried again. This time it was the 2nd of 4 discs that just got skipped over - nothing even installed from that disc - the computer just spat it out and said: "disc 2 complete, please insert disc 3..."
Anyone think I have drive or hardware issues???

Hi Bushfire.
I had a very similar problem when I installed CS 1 under OS X 10.3 on an iBook. In that case it turned out that the version of Stuffit Expander supplied with the OS was too old. (The stuffit engine is, I believe used to unpack some or all of the goodies from the installer). After upgrading Stuffit Expander to - I think to version 7 at the time - the install went perfectly.
OS X 10.4 doesn't have any version of stuffit expander included with it at all. Have a look on versiontracker.com to download if you haven't allready got it. Could be worth a try.
I have subsequently installed CS 2 on my iMac G5, and everything went OK -so it CAN work.
Good luck - and let me know if it works.

I cannot install the latest version of iTunes on laptop (windows xp). I receive a windows installer error message. Not having any issues installing any other software. Was having no issue syncing w iPhone. Made the mistake of uninstalling prior version.

I cannot install the latest version of iTunes on my laptop (windows xp). I receive a windows installer error. Am not having any problem installing other software or syncing w iPhone. Made the mistake today of uninstalling my older version and not cannot install new. Need new version in order to sync w new iPad.
Any help would be appreciated.

Apparently, security programs like Macafee and Norton view Itunes updates as new programs and block then from access. If you add Itunes to the list of exemptions, it solves the problem.

Can anyone help? I have bought an Ipod shuffle for my wife but we cannot install any version of itunes on our laptop: windows 2000 professional We have shut down the AVG virus checker but when itunes is installed it states that itunes and quicktime is installing and then does nothing.

hmmmm. in general, i'm better at XP things like this than 2000. but we'd better try working through some standard possibilities. try the general advice from this document:

Problems Installing Envy D410 Software on my Macbook - OX Lion 7.5

When I try to use the HP Installation Wizard - I get as far as the Installation Type screen and then I cant go any further. The blue "Install" button just flashes.
Any suggestions? It's driving me crazy!
Thanks

Hello @Hilsalive,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are trying to install your HP Envy 100 to your MacBook running the Lion 10.7.7 Operating system, you are using the HP Printer Installer Wizard however you keep getting an error. The reason this is happening is because the HP Printer Installer Wizard was designed for Windows users, it is not compatible with the Mac.
Please go ahead and complete the steps listed below to get started:
Scrub/ Uninstall
• Open the Applications folder > HP or Hewlett Packard folder > HP Uninstaller
• Click continue, click on one of the printers in the list.
• * Only do this step if you do not have any other HP Printers. Hold down Control, Option and Command, While holding the three buttons down,
• Click uninstall.
Reset Printing System
1. Click the Apple icon ( ), and then click System Preferences.
2. In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
3. Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
4. Click OK to confirm the reset.
5. Type the correct Name and Password.
6. Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol..
Repair Disk Permissions
1.On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
2.Double-click Disk Utility.
3.Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
4.Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
5.Once the repair is complete, restart the computer.
Restart the printer. Now you can download and install the printer software and install it. Click on the link below to begin the download and follow the on screen instructions:

Best way to install an iOS software update?

Is it less problematic to install an iOS update like it's a new device, then sync from a backup before the upgrade, to restore app data?

It doesn't make sense to reinvent the wheel. I simply follow the on-screen instructions and I've never had a problem with my Macs or my iPad.

Administrator problems installing 3rd part software

I have an iMac G5 running Mac OSX (10.5.2). I have installed some third party photo software (Olympus Master 2). If I try and update this software or the software for the connected Olympus camera from inside the software, it keeps giving me the following error: "To use this function administrator privileges are required. Log on as an administrator". I am the only administrator on this computer, and I am logged on, so I do not understand the problem. I have reconfirmed I have admin privileges. All other software on this computer generally asks for my admin password when I update it and everything is ok. Am I forgetting something? Does this look like an Apple problem or with Olympus software. Is there a work around?
Thanks
--bbarclay

Hi BBarclay-
Greetings and welcome to the Apple boards
I am not so sure that software is compatible with 10.5.x. Does Olympus have anything on their site referencing this?
If you use iPhoto you probably won't need Olympus Master 2.

HT5287 Problems installing DVD Sharing Software

Hi! I have an iMac and a Mac Book Aire. Y dowloaded in the iMac from the link above the software but when I'm going to install it a message tells me that it can be installed because is from an unknown source. How can I fix this??? Thanks!!!

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You don't have to install any update to use Remote Disc with your Mac. You only have to install the DVD Sharing update if you are running Mac OS X 10.4.11, but your iMac is using OS X 10.8.2, so you don't need it. Follow the steps of the link to use Remote Disc with your computers

Problems installing third party software on Mountain Lion.

I received message "Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers." Where is this security setting so I can change it to be able to install third party software? "
Thank you in advance.

Open the Security & Privacy preferences. Click on the General tab. At the bottom you will find your Gatekeeper settings. Click on the lock icon and authenticate so you can change the selection. If software does not have a developer's signature in it then the software will not be installed until you change the selection to "Anywhere."

Problem installing (any) software

I've installed Yosemite recently.
When iTunes 12.0.1 came out it did not install.
Searched for that and found some similar problems and solutions but could not solve my problem.
Now I realized that it is not just iTunes... nothing install.
The installer just stops in the middle without any message.
Found this in /var/log/install.log.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
