RoboHelp 10 install is not working

I had RoboHelp 10 on my Windows Vista machine, a volume licensed copy that I downloaded and installed locally, and it was running perfectly. Then, per company policy, I had to upgrade to Windows 7. Did my backups, upgraded and now, when I try to install the previous version of RoboHelp 10, it asks me for a license number, which it didn't the last time I installed. So I went back to our repository and downloaded the install of RoboHelp 10 that is there, ran it to install it, it goes all the way through the command window, tells me the install is finished and to press a key to remove the temp files, I press, the window disappears and there is no RoboHelp 10 in the Start menu. I tried rebooting to see if it would appear: it is not there. Ended up trying this twice with the same result.
I'm desperate as I have something to turn in shortly so I installed the trial version for 30 days to buy myself some time until I can fix this. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Helen

Answered my own question! The secret is that no browser can be open. ALL of them must be closed, IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, whatever. Then it installs like a charm and immediately appears on the Start menu!
Posting this for others,

    Hi all,
    OS Solaris 8. Sun Sparc 20 - 256 MB 9.1 GB. I am using csh for this install as instructed for the user OPAPPS.
    I have installed Oracle 8.1.6 Rel 2 on the SUN Sparc. Everything is fine and a customised DB has been created. Now I

    I logged in as OPAPPS as required. (.chsrc). I have set the path with all possible directories and made it a member of

    Would anybody know why I get install.sh NOT found when it is there?. This executabel is on the CD. I am not sure why it gives
    a java runtime error message when it is OK. Remember, I have already installed Oracle 8i using the same environment with the existing java runtime .
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    I am installing Oracle clinical 4.5.x.
    I need to know whether both the Database server and application server for Oracle Clinical can be installed on same server(windows 2000 server).
    Both of them are installed on windows platform.
    It seems that u have tried the single node installation.
    So,please give all the possible details regarding the single node installation for oracle clinical no matter what platform it is.
    Please reply me as soon as possible, its urgent.
    Thanking u in advance.

  • Robohelp 9 with patch - Not working with IE10

    Hi,
    We have a problem with webhelp generated from RoboHelp 9 when viewing with Internet Explorer 10. We can't open a topic on the left or open a search result, until we either :
    A) Resize the window
    B) Resize the splitter between contents and the content pane on the right
    C) Open the dev tools via F12
    We have installed the patch provided by adobe for existing webhelp generated by RH9 at the following address :
    http://abak09.abaksoftware.com/AbakWeb7700/Extras/Help/EN/
    I have also tried to install RH10 and generate the project again, but the same issue occurs.
    I don't know what else to look for, the problems are what the patch was released for, but it is not working in our case.

    We are reproducing with Windows 8 Pro 64bit, with Internet Explorer 10 (Update version 10.0.3).
    I see on your website the snippet "Topics not opening in IE10.". On our web server, we add the IE8 compatibility tag for our web application to work correctly. I have created a new site without this tag and the fix is working.
    Thanks a lot for your help

  • Flash Player installed but not working....

    had a virus 3 days ago which was resolved with assistance from Microsoft.  Now Adobe Flash does not work (when I go to Youtube, it says I do not have the latest version.  I have unistalled, restarted, installed at least 10 times.  Sites still say I need the latest version.  I do see Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X in the programs in my control panel.  I have downloaded version 10.1.102.64.  I am running IE8 (i assume 32-bit since it does not say 64-bit) on Windows Vista.  I have checked the files in my windows/system32/macromed/flash folder and it show the following files:
    Flash Player Trust folder
    Flash10I.ocx
    FlashInstall
    FlashUtil10I_ActiveX.dll
    FlashUtil10I_ActiveX
    install
    I had turned off my Norton AV and firewall. I have also made sure that all security has been set to medium at that java scripting shows as enabled...
    Flash player still does does not work: says I need to install latest version on websites (youtube etc.)
    HELP!!

    Hi, I see you've been on quite a few forums advocating Firefox & Chrome. All this does is give them a browser that perhaps Flash Player would be performing as it should. But it doesn't solve their issue with IE.
    And referring users to follow procedures meant for another user under different circumstances and computer configurations
    is not in their best interest.
    All you are doing is confusing the person, since the required information about their computer has not been obtained.
    You may want to rethink posting referrals, I could do that myself, since I'm on a lot of threads here.

  • Latest Flash Player Install is not working

    Hello, I need some help please. I have been through the install process at least seven times if not more, all previous versions of flash player have been deleted, and it is not working. Sites that I regularly use are still wanting me to install the software that I know I have installed. Even more frustrating is that there is no other way to contact Adobe about this unless one wants to pay $39 to speak with someone, which I refuse to do when it is their product that is not working right. PLEASE HELP ME!!

    That one worked nicely. Thanks for your help!
    I guess the installer from the main download page was just a downloader, and for whatever reason it didn't work for me.

  • Flash Player 10.1 installed, but not working in any browser, or showing up on C:

    I recently updated my flash player, however since then, websites requiring flash do not seem to fully load. However, it should also be noted that there is no notification indicating I need to install the software. Sites such as youtube will load, but fail to display the video I want to view, and showing only a black box. Also, sites I need for my HSC preparation are not working, such as the Board of Studies Online Multiple Choice, and Maths Online. The web page will load, indicating "done" in the bottom left corner of the screen, but the screen will be white.
    I have tried the following:
    un-installing, and re-installing (numerous times)
    Restarting the system after both un-installing and re-installing
    Checking all mentioned websites on three browsers --> Firefox 3.5.11, IE 8, Google Chrome. All presented the same outcome: blank pages etc.
    Ensuring that flash was enabled in all above browsers
    My operating system is 32 bit; Vista (Have checked this file--  C:/Windows/System32/Adobe -- and found that the flash player files are absent despite being 'told' it has successfully installed. After which the 'movie'/'f' symbol does not show up in the installation check online)
    I assume all the above browsers are 32bit as well, however I'm not sure how to check this.
    Please help... I have been searching forums for hours and trying various methods to attempt to fix the problem myself, but have been unsuccessful. It has become increasingly frustrating with the approaching HSC only a couple of weeks away !

    There is no flashinstall.log file in that folder. There is a FlashInstall file that opens in Notepad when I click on it.  The contents of that file are below.  Does this give you any clue as to what is wrong?  It is WAY beyond my techincal competence.

  • My java is installed but not working

    My java is installed and it was working fine a couple of days ago but when i went to restart my computer my java had stop working. I checked to see if my enable java was checked in the security tab, and it is but it's still not working? Is something wrong with my Mac? since i had restarted my safari i'm thinking that was the issue.

    Check if your bank has a app for the iPad. It sounds like you are trying to use the bank's web page/site rather than using an app.

  • Latest QT & iTunes installed, but not work correctly

    I had installed latest version QT7 & iTunes 6.05, however, both of them not work correctly. For QT, it can play video with "looping - delay & sound impediment" audio; the video seems ok. My iTunes has the same problem, I just wonder this is because of QT.
    Hope some body can help me to solve this problem.

    hmmmmm.
    quit itunes and/or quicktime.
    try opening your Sounds and Audio devices control panel. click on the Audio tab.
    in the sound playback area there, click on the "advanced" button. click on the "performance" tab.
    try moving the sliders towards full and best. click okay.
    check on the sound quality in itunes and quicktime again.
    any improvement?

  • CLI admin password rest using install cdrom not working on ACS 5.5 cumulative patch 1

    Hi,
    I can't log onto either of our ACS 5.5 servers using the CLI admin passwords (which we do have recorded and no one appears to have changed ).
    I get accessed denied on both.
    On our DR ACS I went through the procedure of resetting the CLI admin password using the install cd mounted in the VM (the iso is actually for 5.3) , but even after picking a new password,  I get access denied when I try to use it.
    Does anyone know what could be wrong?
    Is it possible that patching to ACS 5.5 from ACS 5.3 (a month or so ago) has some how locked out the passwords ?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    The reason why it is not working is because you need to use the ISO image or cd for ACS 5.5.
    If you try to reset the CLI administrator password with an ISO image or cd for other ACS version it will not take the new password.
    Please give it a try with the 5.5 image.
    Regards,
    Gerald

    If not, what means "not working properly"?

  • CS4 Design Standard Silent Install does not work

    I've concluded CS4 Design Standard silent install for Macs does not work correctly. I've got the program to install sucessfully with an Exit Code: 0 and the programs still do not work. The whole suite says the licensing has stopped working. I've tried the License Repair utility from Adobe, no go. It looks like the program does not fully install. I noticed within each application directory, it should have an Uninstall application when installed correctly. When this application isn't there, which occurs with silent installs, the whole suite doesn't work.
    Its funny how Adobe wont help me with "enterprise installations". I haven't tried the Creative Suite Deployment Toolkit but I've read other threads where that doesn't work either.
    If someone would like to prove me wrong about the silent installs for CS4, please do so. I've gotten CS3 to install perfectly, and the setup is very similar for both.

    Jimmy,
    As one of the volunteer Forum Hosts, I've requested appropriate help.
    You can also get help via the support portal: http://www.adobe.com/go/supportportal
    Or via the phone: 800-642-3623, Monday-Friday 6am-5pm (Pacific time). BTW, the enterprise number you post isnt a valid number for support.
    Your email address (from your account info) was used to log a CCRT to get Tier 2 to email you, given that you've already tried tier 1 with no solution.
    Please post back and let us know how this works out for you. Thanks!

  • CS4 Install not working. Laptop crashed. New download link sent yesterday. Downloaded, but install will not work on new laptop. Help?

    Laptop crashing. Purchased new. Had 30 day free trial of CS4. Activated and used that.
    My serial # would not work when prompted for it.
    Yesterday, chat session helped me to download the software again. Download took 3 hours so chat session ended before install could be completed.
    Today I rand the install.
    The first time the session ended with a "failed to install" and a list of programs (all of them).
    Second and subsequent attempts result in getting to the "Cancel/Install" screen. Message says "Preparing to install" but nothing happens for a significant amount of time.
    Please advise. How do I complete the install? I do need to use this software very, very soon.
    Thank you!

  • Lion Install does not work, says "This disk is used for Time Machine backups"

    I'm having trouble installing Lion onto my macbook pro intel core 2 duo. 
    I am backing up my computer with an external drive using TimeMachine, but i've disconnected it.  Also i'm running SL 10.6.8  
    I have a windows 7 partition that was created with boot camp.
    I've tried to make sure everything is all ready for lion but when I go to install lion it says "This disk is used for Time Machine backups" and the hard drive is grayed out.
    Same problem as this guy: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3190321?start=0&tstart=0
    I'm hearing that a file called "Backups.backupdb" is on the top level of the hard drive, but I see no such file.  I've looked at the invisible files and I cant find it.
    I've also created a bootable flash copy of the lion install but that does not work It gives me the same message "This disk is used for time Machine backups".

    "Backups.backupdb" if the file in Time Machine.  As the discussion says, you have to find that file and trash it.  Try spotlight to locate it.  If that does not work, down load OmniDiskSweeper from the Internet (free) and go through an organized search to find "Backups.backupdb".  If that takes too long or is too tedious, then if you have everything backed up, erase the HDD and start from square one.
    Ciao.
