Problems patching on Windows...

So, I'm going to preface this by saying I've never applied a patch. :)
Having said that, I'm trying to apply patch number 6708565 to an 11g database - 11.1.0.6.0 - and no matter what I try it keeps on failing. I've tried using OPatch and I get an error - error 135. I've trying using the patching method from with Enterprise Manager and it still fails.
Anyone willing to spend the time to show my step-by-step? Which was is better -via EM or CLI?
BTW, I'm on Windows 2003 Server R2.
Thank you!

Before ruuning opatch, please make sure that you have stopped all ias processes using "opmnctl stopall" and then verifying the same using "opmncltl status" which should not show any running processes.

    pixelation problems occurs in my videos when using adobe flash but using chromes pepper flash no problemes so its definitely adobe problems on my WIndows 8.1

    Problem is:
    Flash Player for IE11 (which is the worst browser ever developed - BAR NONE) is a Microsoft product, when it comes right down to it.
    Adobe writes the base code and yes, they do collaborate on updates for it, but the gang in Redmond alter the plug-in and add "proprietary" code before embedding it, and at that point it's "their baby".
    There are two (2) registry keys - 1 for 32 bit IE and the other for 64 bit IE, as well as a KB patch that prevent all but the most experienced Windows users from ever touching the Flash Player plug-in for IE. So there's NO WAY you could have done a clean install of the ActiveX plug-in in Windows 8. Unless you're an uber-geek, you can only update it through Windows Update.
    WIn 8 is an abomination and IE11 made it worse. IE has always been the "problem child" of browsers, failing to handle CSS, Javascript, some PHP and most design "tweaks" that good webmasters can use with other browsers, trouble free.
    I have IE8 on XP, 9 on VIsta, 11 on 7, 10 on 8 and 11 on 8.1... but they're all for testing only. I'd have to be out of my mind to ever think of using IE as my primary browser. ActiveX controls have to be disabled formost stuff and that opens millions of security holes in IE.
    You've got a good video card and a decent sound card. It's a shame to waste them on a pile of garbage like IE, just because it came with Windows.

  • Can't get the patch/bank window for an external midi device to stay open

    I am going to be very explicit with the description of my problem.
    I am running Snow Leopard (10.6.1) and using Logic 9.0.1 on a MacBook Pro (2.16GHz, Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB memory).
    I create a new empty project and add an external midi track.
    I click on the track and select my Roland XV-5050, Channel 1 in the Library window.
    I open the Environment window.
    I choose MIDI Instr. from the pull down menu.
    I select the XV-5050 icon.
    I choose Define Custom Bank Messages under the Options menu.
    I define all the Bank changes for my XV-5050 and close the Define Custom Bank Messages window.
    I right-click on the XV-5050 icon in the Environment window and select Open Object Editor.
    The patch/bank window opens and then immediately closes.
    I can't get the patch window to stay open.
    The same thing occurs when I double click on the midi track in the arrangment window.
    Could someone let me know if they are able to get the patch/bank window to stay open or is it a bug?
    Thanks
    Scott

    Scott,
    Although this doesn't have much to do with your question, could you enlighten me as to how you connectd your XV-5050 to your mac with Snow Leopard? I can't get my Mac to "see" the XV at all.

  • Whenever I try to update iTunes to 10.5 I get the message 'There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.'

    Whenever I try to update iTunes to 10.5 I get the message 'There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.'
    I then uninstalled iTunes to try and reinstall it but I still get the same message for both 10.5 and previous versions, please help!

    My situation:
    - get error when updating iTunes from 1041 to 1050 or above: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
    My system: XP SP3 with all latest updates.
    Found out that the 1051 update fixes a major intrusion possibility during the update process, so I want to get iTunes upgraded to 1051.
    Did more research and the following worked (not known if all steps outlined were necessary) (I do not guarantee success nor any more issues as a result):
    - ran: MicrosoftFixit.ProgramInstallUninstall.exe (did JUST the patch option).
    - ran: Windows Installation Removal Tool.exe (uninstalled JUST the iTunes program installer folder) (this does not remove the actual program).
    - removed all apple software update registry entries.
    - removed: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple\Installer Cache\(JUST the software updatefolders) (hidden folder).
    - removed: C:\Documents and Settings\current user\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\(JUST the software  update folders) (hidden folder).
    - DID NOT need to restart
    - downloaded latest iTunes update (1051)
    - opened using WinRAR
    - extracted all files
    - ran JUST the apple software update MSI
    - it succeeded
    - ran JUST the iTunes MSI
    - it succeeded
    - normally I then uninstall the apple software update program, but DID NOT this time
    - DID NOT need to restart
    Hope it works for you.

  • A lot of problems after installing Windows XP using Boot Camp on a Mac Book

    I have been having a lot of problems after installing Windows XP Home Edition (2002).
    For one, after installing Windows using Boot Camp with Mac OS X 10.5.1, I opened Windows on my Mac Book, inserted the Mac OS X Disk 1 as in the instructions and got the message: +"This package requires a newer version of the Windows installer. Do you want to update the version of the Windows Installer on your system?"+ When I clicked Yes (I had NO idea what it meant at the time), I got the message: "The required resource 'UPDATE' is missing" and the Installer quit.
    How do I fix this problem?
    Another problem I have is that there is no sound on the Windows XP, yet it works perfectly on Mac OS X. Is there any way to fix this problem?
    A third problem I have is that I can't wirelessly connect to the internet using Window XP, yet I can on Mac OS X. I have no idea on how to fix this, and it's really messing with me. D:<
    D: There are way too many problems, and I have a feeling there will be a lot more later on. Help....

  • I keep getting the following error message when I try to update my itunes, "There is a problem with this windows installer package. Aprogram run as part of the set up did not finish as expected.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

    I keep getting the following error message when I try to update my itunes, "There is a problem with this windows installer package. Aprogram run as part of the set up did not finish as expected.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

    Yes, I had found a similar solution also.  I'm running XP Pro, SP3.  I went Control Panels/ Add-Remove programmes/apple software update/ change/ repair.  Then run the 10.5 exe.
    While the programme updated from version 8 of iTunes, my new iTunes is now a mess.  Not all of my music was in the same folder previously but it all showed up on iTunes.  Now many albums have been left out, some have only a few tracks and some have two copies of some tracks as well as having other tracks missing.  I haven't begun to work on that.

  • I get the errer message "There is a problem with this windows installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run."

    I have Wondows Vista... I tried to upgrade to Itunes 10.5, and received an error orginially stating that I was trying to install a version older than the one I had.  I uninstalled all of itunes, and now I'm getting the error  message "there is a problem with this windows installer package.  Aprogram required for this install to complete could not be run.
    Help!  I have an IPhone, and I would like to get my Itunes upgraded so I can download the new Iphone software...
    Thanks!

    I have been in touch with Apple support in reference to my problem. We went through every solution available, and found no fix. The tech then suggested I contact Microsoft concerning this issue. I thought that suggestion was just to get me pointed somewhere but Apple. Boy was I wrong!! I contacted Microsoft, and was directed to a free download called Microsoft Fix. This program fixed something in the regisitor, and wala everything was fixed!! I now have I-Cloud and I-Tunes loaded and working well. So, if you can't install Apple Software and are running Window 7 you might give Microsoft Fix a try, it fixed my problem.....

  • I am trying to upload itunes 10.5, but get a message "There is a problem with this Window Installer Pkg. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor".  What is it I need to do?

    I am trying to install itunes 10.5, but during the download I get the following message, "There is a problem with this Window Installer Package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personanal or package vendor."  If this is my personal computer and was able to upgrade to the previous version (pre 10.5), why not now?  What is my "package vendor"? And what is it I need to do to fix this?  The message is unclear.  Unfortunately, I deleted my itunes program, thinking that in doing so, 10.5 would finally load.  Now I have no itunes on my computer and unable to sync my iphone.  Help!
    Thanks - Rick

    Hi Rick,
    by "repair" I mean I went to the control panel, option - programs and features, and in the list of all my installed programs I selected "Apple Software Update". On top of the screen you find the options Uinstall, Change and Repair. I clicked the repair button and that did the trick. After the repair I could uninstall the program. I also uninstalled iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support en Bonjour, thus all Apple programs. Then I installed iTunes 10.5 again and everything went fine.
    Success,
    Peter

  • I purchased an in-app component but it has not downloaded and I cannot seem to contact the seller. I've tried to report a problem but no window opens in which to report the problem. Any ideas?

    I purchased in in-app component for an email program but it has not shown up in the app on my ipad. I tried to report a problem, but no window opens in which to explain my situation. How do I get a message to the seller or to itunes? I am reluctant to re-purchase the component.

    Can you download large files from other places apart from the App store, wondering if it is the App store or your internet connection.
    If it just the app store check this url http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/

    Repair your Apple software update.
    Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
    If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:
    START/CONTROL PANEL/Programs n Features/highlight ASU and click REPAIR,

  • ITunes 10.5 Upgrade fails to Install. The Error Message is: "There is a Problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

    When Upgrading on my laptop from iTunes 10.2.11 to 10.5.0 the message I get is: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package.  Aprogram run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or pacakge vendor.

    After reading all these posts, one by one did not resolve my problem until I got the very end.  Regardless of what step would resolve your problem, these are the steps I would recomment to everyone for a what seems to be a safe and fool-proof upgrade to iTunes 10.5.
    1. Stand alone upgrade to the latest Quicktime version
    2. Go to control panel and "change" then select repair to the following applications in the order specified by the post on Oct 27. (Notice I skipped Quicktime because it had been upgrade manually,and Bonjour did not have a "repair" option)
    iTunes; Apple Software Update: Mobile Device Support; Apple Applications Support
    Some of these applications may not appear if they do not apply to your configuration (no iPhone, or no iPad, or other apple devices).
    Once all updated, I did not need to restart nor launch any applications, I simply went straight into the 10.5 upgrade, and where it normally got stuck, this time the installation continued for a while longer until it completed successfully.
    Great work everyone who contributed!  Thank you very much!

  • How to re-install iTunes after receiving "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package ..." message?

    Hi,
    This is how it all started. When the new update for iTunes 11 came out, I tried to update it. After I had updated it I found nothing had changed. So i tried rebooting my computer and everything and found that still nothing had changed. So I tried uninstalling it. After that I tried to re-install it, but it came up with the
    "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package ..." message. So I looked around the internet and found a website that told me to uninstall all Apple products. So i did that. When i tried to uninstall Apple Software Update, it came up with the 'problem with windows' message again. So I used Revo to uninstall it. So I rebooted and tried to install it again. It installed Bonjour and all of the other programs but stopped halfway and gave me the 'proplem with windows' message again. I've looked around and most of the solutions have been to try and repair Apple Software Update, but the problem is, I've already deleted it. So can someone PLEASSEEEE help me fix this problem! (Sorry for droning on)

  • I'm not able to download Itunes.  I keep getting this Apple Software Update message that states "There is a problem with this Windows installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your package vendor"

    Not able to access Itunes store anymore.  Just quit working for no reason.  I've tried deleting Itunes and related components from the Control Panel, but when I try to remove Apple Software Update, I get a message that states "There is a problem with this Windows installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor".  Not sure what this message means.  Am I suppose to contact Apple ?  What is meant by package vendor ?

    Apparently it's an itunes issue. I just tried to update and got the same issue. Called att to activate my iphone 4s and they say they can do the swap but apple is telling them itunes is down atm.  So will have to wait
