Really annoying problem.

Well I thought I'd download a trial version of Photoshop on my computer so I did.
However, Every time I attempt to install it I get the following error;
']Adobe Photoshop CS4
Error:
Error 1612. The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it.
Adobe Photoshop CS4
Error:
Error 1612. The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it.'
Everything installs except Photoshop CS4 itself.
I've tried re-downloading and such but I still get the error.
I've done a lot of searching for a fix but there's absolutely nothing that solves the problem.
Anyone know a way to resolve this very annoying issue?
My computer;
Windows XP 32-bit
More than sufficient hard drive space.

If you went to the Adobe site and down loaded the trial of PS CS4 did you get any errors or was the download complete?
Did you put the folder on the desktop that contained the 2 files?
Did you right click on the .exe file in the folder and run as Admin?
Turn off any anti-virus running on XP.
The biggest problem now is that even with the partial install of PS CS4 trial, with the rest failing, the trial cannot be reinstalled. You will have to re-format your hard drive and reinstall XP.

Connecting via Airport express: really annoying problem

I've got a really annoying problem that doesn't make much sense. Have an airport express and my network seems to work OK mostly. My iBook can always connect, never any problem. My eMac however is behaving bizzarely. The longer I'm connected, the worse my connection gets. Until it stops working altogether and I can't access the internet at all. System preferences tells me the Airport card is on, but is not connected to a network. Can still connect to it with the iBook.
Shut down, leave it a good while (a good while too, a short shut down doesn't do it), and it works again.
I can't even think where to start looking, all I can think of is that I have a problem with the Airport card in the eMac (something getting hot in there perhaps). Any ideas?

Thanks,
I'm pretty sure the card is seated properly (it works most of the time after all). I couldn't get it to work when I installed it because it wasn't seated properly, I pushed it in as far as it could possibly go and it has worked since (except after extended periods of use). The Airport express is three feet from the eMac with only a couple of bits of wood between them. The connection does not go down at times which I can link with the use of any particular appliances (When the eMac stops working, the iBook is always fine, even in a similar position). It is the apparently time-dependent aspect that I can't figure out (I only notice it on those, fairly infrequent, occasions when I am online for a few hours at a time). The eMac discussion group is a good tip. Ta.

Really really annoying problem with slooooow Adress Book

I have a really, really annoying problem with Address Book.
Ever since I connected it with the MobileMe service it has this problem, and I just cant get rid of it. I have tried logging out and back into the MobileMe service, resetting the sync history etc., but to no avail.
Each time I open the application it freezes for about 5 to 10 seconts, then that blooming annoying, Windows reminiscent, rotating rainbow circle appears for about a minute at a time. Then it goes away and the application works..........that is until try something demanding like adding a new group or changing a group name, then it starts over. It is making the Address Book almost unusable and very un-Mac-like.
Can someone please help???

Try deleting this plist:
(yourUserName)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist
As well, the general approach at this time is to ask if you've checked for any problematic fonts (all languages) with Apple's Font Book (look in the Applications folder). Find and remove all duplicates also.
Start there to be sure all fonts that are in play come out with a clean bill of health.
Also, don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come from Office 2008, including those related to an Equation Editor installation.
By all means be sure your 3rd party apps are Snow Leopard compatibl

Help, Really annoying problem,

when I copy certain tracks to my ipod, they appear 2 times in the ipod listings as in If I copy over 'Since I've been loving you by led zepp' and then click on led zep in the artist listings, there will be two idenical names 'Since I've Been Loving You', like its referencing the same song twice, I'm using a Nano latest firmware, and latest itunes with a macbook, its really annoying,
Also alot of times songs I send over wont appear under the artist as expected, and they dont even appear under the unknown section, instead the only way to play them is find them in the all songs section, I mean whats that about??
Thanks in advance,
John

A spelling or punctuation mistake, or sometimes a trailing space usually causes this after the artists and/or song name, which fools the iPod into thinking that there are two different artists or songs. The trailing space is the hardest to spot.   Best way to cure this is to go into iTunes, highlight that artist and/or songs, right click on them and select "get info".   This brings up the multiple song info window. In the artist or song box retype the name, as you would like it, and then click ok. Do this even if no mistakes are immediately visible.
  Re sync this new artist/song info to your iPod.
As for your artist problem, it could be that you have inadvertently imported these CDs into iTunes as part of a compilation. If so, the artists won't show in the artists menu on the iPod.
To check, highlight the tracks on one of the offending artists CDs in iTunes, right click and select "get info". This brings up a multiple song info window, and from there you can check if you have 'yes' in the box marked "part of a compilation".
If you have, select 'no' instead and click 'ok'. Do this with any CD that has this issue. This will alter the info in iTunes, and you should then connect your iPod and synchronize the changes.
The problem arises because the information contained on the Gracenote CD Data Base (where iTunes gets all it's album/artist/track info from), is sometimes incorrect. It can show CDs as compilations when in fact they are not.
You should also check that the songs have album name info in their ID tags.
See: Some songs don't don't show under artist on my iPod.

A really annoying problem!!!

Alright guys, I got an annoying problem with my mac.
The text formatting is on many occasions all wrong like this:
http://users.pandora.be/solid_raven/vb1.jpg
Another thing is, the sound fails me, but not in itunes and stuff but only in flash files, games etc. Really annoying!
I did a complete format before but after a couple of days this came up again.
Anyone know what to do about it?
Ty!

I'm not sure about the text problem (although sometimes it can be to do with the website itself, I think), but the sound problem sounds like something that happened to me a while ago. Go to Applications>Utilities>Audio MIDI Setup and look where it says "Audio Output" - there'll be a box for "Format". Check the Hz number it says; ensure that it says 44100.0 Hz. If you find that it did not say 44100.0 Hz your problem is one of the programs you use. Some programs, e.g. Audacity (that's the one that caused my problem), change that level to one that is too high - this causes the sound problems you described. Once you've found out which program it is you can either avoid using it or change the level back to 44100.0 Hz after every use.

Really annoying problem, can't get past 'getting started' screen!

Hi,
Can't get ipod and itunes working for the first time!
Ipod is plugged in and appears in the itunes menu, click on ipod and a screen appears on the right hand side saying something like 'getting started'. The problem is that the type runs over the edge of the window (can't read all the info) and there's no link/tickbox to set up the ipod. Tried widening window but moves about an inch then stops. Is there any way to get things working without this annoying problem?
I'm trying to get this working for a friend and don't know much about Windows as I use a mac (which worked first time with my ipod!).
Any replies appreciated, Steve.
Ipod classic 80 gig/win XP/itunes 7.5

I have the EXACT same problem. I own a first generation iPod nano and I loved it so much that I bought my boyfriend the 3rd generation. I downloaded iTunes for him and everything was going great until I went to register. The screen is doing exactly what you described. You can tell there is something on the right side that needs to be clicked but you can't scroll over there to do it. I'm frustrated because he wanted to sync all his music before we started to travel for the holidays and now we can't! Please let me know if you figure anything out or find out anything. Thank you!!
FYI - I tried to register online to see if that would help but it didn't make a difference. Also, you can still put songs onto your iPod by dragging them into the iPod section but once they are there you can't manipulate them or take them back off.

Really annoying problem on My O2 accessing the community!

I have a Nexus 7 2013 and a Sony Xperia z1 compact. Both have this really annoying glitch whereby when in the community section, evert time i press the 'back' arrow (the app one, not the Android soft key) it opens the 'my offers and perks' page and takes me to the page where it tells me how much it costs to upgrade! I have to repeat this half a dozen times before it finally navigates back to the previous page. The touchscreen on both devices in this app seems glitchy too, it tries to highlight things in other areas of the screen at times. I have an iPhone 5s and never have this bother when accessing the community via that. I've tried exiting the app, signing out and back in again to no avail. I'm nearly at upgrade time, I hope this isn't O2's way of persuading me to renew! How do I sort this or is it just me?

Just tried uninstalling and reinstalling My O2 on both the Z1 and nexus and it's still doing it on both devices. Still seems ok on my iPhone so far.
Thanks , The Xperia Z1 Compact is running Android 5.0.2, and my Nexus 7 is running 5.1.1. Both devices are running standard firmware and are not rooted. I acces the community via the link on the 'hamburger' menu on the left of the screen after signing in. I might try doing it via the community link at the bottom of the sign in screen and see if not signing into My O2 via my pin makes any difference.

So yeah, I know, longest post in history, right? This just completely baffles me. To me , going through it, it should work. I even commented out the line where it sets the flag to 0, and it didn't change the outcome. Any insight would be very helpful thanks for even reading this far.

Do yourself a favor -- repost with code tags.Oh, thanks. Sorry, I'm just really new and quite a bit confused. I don't do well when confused.

Really annoying problem, please help!

We have just upgraded to quad core mac pro and for some reason when we try to encode video, either in compressor or directly in DVD studio pro, the bottom third of the frame is solid green!
We didn't have any problems when we were running the exact same version on a Dual Core but I have no idea if thats relevant. It happens with every quicktime movie we try and it doesn't seem to matter what settings we use. Its driving us crazy as the deadline for the project is approaching really fast!
Any help would be greatfully received.
Simon

Sorry no one has gotten back to you. The only thing I can even possibly sugegst is to reinstall the latest upgrade to QT. You can delete the RECEIPT for the last one or two revs of QT that you got handed by Software Update and run Software Update again. It will see that those receipts are missing and resend and redo the QT updates.
There is an apple knowledge base article on the process. Sorry, can't put my finger on it right now. This might work,

A really annoying problem regarding the Zen Vision M 30 g

When I go to the creative media?program it says that I don't have a player plugged in. I've done the system registry editing for the USB that was on the support page, but that doesn't work either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have Windows Media player 0 installed at the moment but I'm going to try to get the th version installed when I get home. Last time I tried to get it to install it wouldn't for some reason,?but I'm going to?look into that problem. I don't think this is related to the Windows Media player though.

A really annoying problem with a button/movie clip

I am having a problem with a button! its driving me insane
because i managed to do it last week, but that was by chance and
now i can't remember how i did it!
I can get the button (i'm using gelright from the common
libraries panel) and convert it to a movie clip(by pressing F8) and
even attach a behaviour but when i play the movie it doen't work!
when i move the curser over the button it changes into a hand, but
will not act like a button, even though i have set the behaviour to
'on release, go to and play keyframe 2'.
Please help me, for the sake of my laptop goin through the
wall!

ok - you are running yourself around in circles - why did you
delete it to the stage only to add it
again? once you converted it to a movie clip, you had what
you wanted on the stage - but then you
deleted it and dragged another instance of the same symbol
back onto the stage - there's no reason
to do that.

Right - this is expected because yoyu are now inside the
movie clip timeline - not the button timeline.

Right - because by double clicking the button symbol you were
then brought to "edit mode" for the
button symbol.

layers for

Huh? What "5 layers"? What do you mean "original" button -
per your description there has only ever
been 1 button you have been working with.

Lost you completely now - what do you mean add the button to
each heading? I have no clue what you mean.

That's because you are applying a behavior for a button to a
movie clip instead.
I think you went wrong when you converted the button to a
movie clip - i have no idea why you did
that or why to think your button needs to be in a movie clip.

I just think you don't understand how timelines, symbols or
buttons work yet in flash.
1. drag a button to the stage.
2. select it and open the Behaviors panel (dont double click
it to edit it).
3. add your actions.
4. test movie.
(no need for a movie clip here.

Really annoying problem... if anyone could help that would be great

everytime i click to add folder to import an cd album on my comp, it always imports double the amount of songs into itunes. i.e. if i try to add a album on my comp with 13 songs, then it will import 26 songs into itunes, and I will have a duplicate of each song. any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated....
thanks in advance

Hmmm, do your album folders have duplicate songs in them? It's probably a dumb question but I don't know the whole story. And also, in your album folders, are there any kind of 'System Information' files or '.cue's in them?
As an alternative to your importing issue, I say go to the folder manually, highlight all the songs you want to import, and then drag and drop into your iTunes music library. Make sure, however, that "Music" under "Library" (on the left task pane) is highlighted or that a custom playlist of your own is highlighted. I say this because you can not add new songs to smart playlists which are, for example, the "Recently Added" or the "Recently Played" smart playlists.

BIGGEST iTunes bug!! Really annoying!!

Okay, so I got this really annoying problem. Actually two. First is that I am using iTunes 9.2. So the first problem is this. I would import a song, with these ID3 tags for example:
Title: Till I Collapse
Artist: Eminem
Album Artist: Eminem
Album: The Eminem Show
Genre: Hip-Hop
Track: 18
So then I modify a few things like these:
Title: 'Till I Collapse
Genre: Rap
Add an album cover.
I click on OK and just how it is supposed to work, the track info changes, and the album cover appears. I close iTunes, open that file. Right Click, choose properties, and look at the tags. THE TAGS DID NOT CHANGE. The genre is still Hip-Hop, the Title does not have an apostrophe before the Till I Collapse. Worst of all, the album cover does not show when I do tile view. I delete the file from iTunes library and import it again. It shows the old unchanged tags. Biggest problem.
Then a second problem hits. It somehow started showing that I got files missing. I click on locate other files from the library and it said that I am missing 119 files. The folder are still there, the files still there. To make it worse, the new songs that I have added using iTunes 9.2 that were missing have been reset back to the original tags. Now I gotta change them and gotta online and find the album covers again. Pathetic.
Edit: What is interesting is that all the missing songs that are shown now are the ones that I added using iTunes 9.2.

iTunes not actioning your changes is usually a sign that you don't have write permissions for the files in question. iTunes appears to accept your changes and may even update the display to show them, but is unable to write the changes out to the tag. It will not report this as an error. When you go back to the file the original tag will have remained unchanged and iTunes will reveal the old data.
Not sure about the second one, but let's guess that it's an extension of the first one. If your change would have resulted in a new filename, e.g. you change the artist, album, track name or number, then iTunes may have updated the database to point to the new location, but then failed to actually rename the file, again without generating an error.

Really Confusing Problem

Hi allI am new here and have joined because i have a really annoying problem. I bought a PS3 that had no hard drive or controllers. So I bought a new hard drive and installed it. Turned the console one and it said i had to format the hard drive and to do that i need a controller in order to select the various options.So i bought a cheap controller off Amazon and as it turns out it didnt have a cable but i found a normal mini usb cable and plugged that in to sync the new controller to the PS3 so i could format the hard drive and then install the software which i have sitting on a USB stick. However, the controller wont sync with the console (presumably because there is no software on the hard drive). So i am stuck in a never ending cycle of needing software to connect the controller and needing a controller to install the software. I called playstation support and they said i needed the original hard drive for the console (apparently a friends one wont work) or to give them £110 to resolve the issue. Can anyone help out? Will a non-wireless controller work or do they need to sync as well? And will using a friends PS3 to load the software onto my hard drive and then putting that into my console work?

Problems with Media and my Blackberry Bold, is it time for me to give up on RIM this is really annoying

Hello RIM,
Over the past year since owning a Blackberry, I have had on-going issues with syncing my music between my (2) bolds, so I know this is not specific to the hardware, I have also managed 400 BB's on a BES before so I have a fair idea of how to do things and troubleshoot issues.
1. My music many times has sounded severely distorted through my car speakers, with lots of bad crackle that hurts my ears
2. Transferring media between my device and my computer is actually really annoying and now I can't even find my playlists on Windows 7
3. This should be seemless, it should not be buggy and I can't believe, having done so much support with your hardware and software that this continues to be a real problem for me
I have a playbook, 2 blackberry bolds (I had to buy another 1 because Mobilicity does AWS only and Bell was just plain mean to me so I gave up on them).
I am ready to go on ebay and get rid of this stuff because whilst I mostly use it as a phone (the reason I went with BB), it is important that I am able to do other things with it, without having to go through a dozen articles and issues just to get things to work, these should have been ironed out in the bug reporting process.
So I have reinstalled both Itunes and BB Desktop Manager, both manually and via repair and tried even recopying over my playlists, this doesn't work.
I can't believe the lousy support and buggy software, come on RIM, there is no excuses in this market, PICK UP YOUR GAME and update the BDS or I am done and so will the many other people who won't even take their time to write anything about it on here but vote with their wallet.

Well you know the playbook is actually pretty cool but didn't seem to be ready to go out on time and being a late entrant to the market I would have expected them to showcase the playbook better, especially like how Nintendo gets out there and gets everyone playing with it hands on, there are some things about the Playbook that actually make it unique but it has been poorly marketed.
Unfortunately getting BDS and everything to work properly should not be an issue, I have already spent thousands of dollars on hardware and my phone provider, what am I actually paying for here? So I will spell out some things that make the Blackberry Playbook special and what I would have been pushing had I been in charge of marketing. Firstly I would have had a few different campaigns going, one that targeted business corporate customers, regular business customers and the public that use them as their choice of smartphone and open to potentially buying one.
1. Flash works really great, come on blackberry, why couldn't you team up with Facebook on this one? Facebook looks better on a Playbook than any other tablet I have seen, in fact the web looks better in general.
2. Stereo speakers(dual), movies sound great, music sounds great and so do games, in this area, Playbook has the upper hand.
3. USB & HDMI out - Allows much easier portability of presentations and transferring of files and now I believe there is the Wifi Sync as well.
4. Blackberry Bridge - You know it's like RIM got backed into a corner on this one, but you know, I think this is the most secure way to operate a tablet, I love how when I turn off bluetooth on my bold, my personal and private information is removed and I can pass it to friends and family without my personal communications being looked into, with the other tablets, it's pretty hard to have different people on them, without probably creating different profiles, with the Playbook, you could share it between a team and it would seamlessly operate between them.
5. True Multitasking - You know, you can play music, whilst playing a game and you can switch between applications, this funtions pretty awesome. I put on some cool music and loaded up a game on the device and someone whom had an Apple device was sincerely impressed he could listen to music whilst reading or playing games etc. This could also enhance Business Presentations that require audio in the background whilst displaying and going through different information / files or charts.
6. QNX OS - I mean wow Blackberry, this Operating System is fantastic, I love it, this was an EXCELLENT choice and this I will give you 5 stars on, I can't wait to see what QNX can do on the Blackberry and I would not be surprised if the QNX OS became a major OS against the others, it definitely is polished and apps just install and are ready to go in no time.
RIM has been ahead of the game and because of it's great name with-in business circles they have almost sold themselves and whilst it's nice to see that RIM has sold over 250,000 units with-in the first week this could have been drastically improved by realizing when getting into a NEW market, they need to do the proper marketing and get the devices out there with subject matter experts to educate people whom are checking them out so they can share that information with their friends.
Google paid a very large price with their Nexus One because they where over-confident and thought they would sell based on their name alone, this could have been a learning curve RIM did not have to deal with. There are actually other nice things about the Playbook, the apps that are in their app store are pretty cool and when Android apps are available it will be cooler.
I like the size of the tablet I can comfortably reach accross the screen to hit all the keys on the digital keyboard making it any larger and I couldn't hold it in my hands with the same comfort; copping out to apple fan boys thinking they must have a 10.1" tablet is not necessary, this is the perfect size to sit in your hands, some people think they are small but if they actually watch a movie or play a game on it or look at websites by "Playing with it themselves" they will react differently and actually suggest if your going to do a 10.1" tablet, also keep the smaller sized one as well.
Suggestions :
- Working on building in more extensions for gaming such as Unity so that games like battlestar galactica online etc could be played online and directions could be replaced by using the gyroscope.
- Hire more people if you are having problems meeting deadlines, these companies, including Apple are taking risks to win the market, if your going to take a swing at your competitors, please make it a punch and not a jab, the biggest thing you still have on your side is the market you already had and the market share you have been losing and since we all upgrade our devices so often at this time, come out with something special and we will continue to support you. Okay now that I have that off my chest I feel better. DAMMIT !

Really annoying problem.
