Safari refusing to install

Is there anyone who can suggest a solution to safari failing to install
The MAC HDD has an exclamation mark as a against Green tick.
I have verified permissions etc but to no avail. Falling short of reinstalling the operating system - any ideas?
thanks

I just wanted to add to the evidence trail. I did a fresh install from the 10.5 Install DVD using the optional installs technique and re-installed Safari.
The current symptom is that Safari just sits there bouncing and will not launch properly. I've tried deleting the preferences in the Preferences folder and I've deleted files from the Safari Preferences folder.
Not sure why this happened but I can tell you it started apparently today and, from reading around the Internet, there are several people all experiencing this bug.
It would be good if someone in the position to know what's going on posts a comment about this problem and that it is being addressed.

Safari refuses to load phpMyAdmin icons

Safari refuses to load image file from our web server phpMyAdmin because of content-security-Policy, yet all other browsers such as Chrome load the images (icons). Attached is a screen shot. This is version 4.01 of phyMyAdmin and the same problem occurs all the way back to phpMyAdmin version 3.5.7 which loads the images (icons). I can find no content-security problem. Hopefully, I have posted to the correct community since only Safari is creating the problem. Running Safari 5.1.9 on Snow Leopard (10.6.8)
All feedback is appreciated.

I had the same problem. I'm also running Safari 5.1.9 on Snow Leopard (10.6.8). I just installed phyMyAdmin 4.0.5 and got the same results as on your screenshots.
The problem is the CSP header that blocks the load of external images.
If you comment out some lines in phpMyAdmin-4.0.5/libraries/Header.class.php, you can deactivate the image blocking of the CSP header.

HT4623 Tried to download TuneupMyMac. Safari refused. It said it failed. What do I do?

I am having trouble in a few areas. 1. Pad is sluggish especially when typing. Email cancels out whenever, even while I am actively involved. 2. Need some version of Adobe Flash to use some programs. 3. Need to upgrade/update ioS but don't know how. 4. Safari refuses to allow most of these. Others have been successful, but not I. I need advice and help. Thanks. I am a 67 yr. old retired public school teacher. So you know I was not raised with my arm attached to a computer. I'm learning ans mostly do all right until I hit a snag like this.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select

Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4625e Refuses to Install

My printer is an HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4625e (4620 series). Firmware Version: CAP1FN1451AR
First, this is what I can do with the printer:
Print internal ‘Test’ pages and reports.
Print documents in all applications from a wireless, networked laptop.
Print documents using ePrint.
My computer is an HP Omni All-in-one Running Windows 7 Home Premium X64
The issue is I am unable to (re)install the printer on the HP Omni using either ‘Add Printer’, HP downloads or the installation disk.
Hoping for a definitive solution.
Background: Just over a week ago I upgraded from Office Pro 2010 to Office Pro 2013. When I went to print I noticed the dfautl print was showing as One Note 2013. I selected the HP printer then hit print. I got an error message: Word Cannot Print this Document. There is no printer installed.
I tried to print using NotePad and an Adobe document (thinking it may have been Word related only). This did not work. I could print from any application using the Desktop. But, as noted, I can do so from the networked laptop.
On opening the Printers folder OneNote was set as the default. I changed the default to the HP printer. No luck. I was told it was not installed.
I ran Malwarebytes Premium and Microsoft Security Essentials to check for possible incursions. None.
I then tried System Restore. No change.
I then tried to repair the print program. No change.
I then uninstalled Office 2013. No Change.
I then tried the “Add Printer” function. No Luck. I was informed: “Unable to install printer. Some files are missing or incorrect. Reinstall the driver or try using the latest version.” (Screenshot 1)
I then tried to reinstall the printer. First as a straight reinstall then second after doing a complete uninstall using Revo Professional Uninstaller and an Advanced Scan.
This did not work, yet the printer is recognised as being on the wireless network during the reinstall process (Screenshot 2).
This is what I Cannot do: (Note: during any install attempt I disable both Malware Byes and Windows Security Essentials. I have also attempted installs with the Firewall turned OFF.)
Cannot reinstall on the system. It refuses to allow a wireless network installation even though it shows on the install screen (Screenshot 2).
If using ‘Add Printer, it says files missing or incorrect (Screenshot 1).
If installed using HP Download, I am able to input IP Address but it does not show the copmupter name. It says either. “Computer’s Network Name: Retrieving’ OR ‘Computer’s Network Name: Unable to Retrieve’ (Screenshot 3 & Screenshot 4 respectively).
When install fails, I get the screen asking to search for a solution (Screenshot 5) which then gives me instructions re a download ‘Helper Application’ (Screenshot 6).
After attempting to follow those instructions, the downloaded ‘solution’ does not work (Screenshot 7).
Instead of trying to install over the wireless network I have tried using the USB Install process. The printer then only installs as a ‘Fax’ Printer. On checking the Device Mager – Show Hidden Devices – it shows a ‘Multifunction Device’ with a yellow exclamation mark (!) next to the driver. On checking, it says I need to reinstall the driver.
Any attempt to convert the USB connection (even though it only installs as a fax printer) to a wireless connection fails.

Hi @jindo53,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
Thank you for a very well detailed post! From what I have read, I understand that your HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4625e is refusing to install either as a Wireless or USB connected printer, on Windows 7. I am sorry to hear this, but I am happy to help!
Please take a look through this guide, 'Unable to Find Printer' Error Message Displays for the HP Officejet 4620 e-All-in-One and HP Deskje....
Tips to avoid wireless connection issues
The following tips can help prevent wireless connection issues. You might need to experiment with each of these tips to secure a successful wireless connection.
Move the product, the computer, and the access point (router) closer together.
Remove any metal objects that are between the product, the computer, and the access point (router). Objects such as refrigerators or metal bookcases can interfere with a wireless transmission.
Move any device that emits radio signals farther away from the HP product. Devices such as microwaves and cordless telephones can interfere with wireless transmission.
Accept or allow any firewall pop-up messages that display during the software installation.
If you connect to a virtual private network (VPN), temporarily disconnect from the VPN during the HP software installation (see your VPN software for further details).
If you have MAC address filtering enabled on your router, you will need to add the HP product's MAC address to the address filter list. You can find the MAC address on the Network Configuration Page. Follow instructions for your router to add the address.
If that does not help, please try the following:
Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Disable any Antivirus programs. Disable Antivirus software.
Disable any firewall programs. Turn Windows Firewall on or off.
Create a new user account. Managing User Accounts and Logins (Windows 7).
Reinstall using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
If still unsuccessful, proceed to back up your files, and reinstall Windows 7.
Hope this information is helpful, and thank you for posting!

What exactly means "refuses"?
This is the message which comes up if I try to update (from the Help menu) or re-install my licenced copies of CS6 or Photoshop Elements 9.
“We've encountered the following issues
Installer failed to initialize.Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem”
Get Adobe Support Advisor”
OR
on trying to open PhotoshopCS6 I get this message:-
“Adobe Application Manager required to start your trial, is missing or damaged.
Please download a new copy of Adobe Application Manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager_uk”
When I follow these instructions and try and start up/install or update Photoshop CS6 I get the same messages all over again. This has been going on since Tuesday afternoon and I am anxiuous to resolve the problem. For several years now all this has worked perfectly through your website and I cannot understand what has changed. Once I cancel these messages the products themselves seem to function OK. When I attempt to use Adobe Update Manager I get the same messages as above. You will see that my products are properly licensed and up to date. Have you any solution?

Can't install safari extensions, I get the error message "Safari can't install this extension, An error occurred while installing the extension "Pin It Button"." Any suggestions?

Every time I try and install an extension for Safari I get the error message "Safari can’t install this extension, An error occurred while installing the extension “Pin It Button”." I have all the latest updates, working on OS X Yosemite v 10.10.2 / Safari v 8.0.3. Any suggestions?

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to search for an item named "Safari Extensions List". If found, delete it. Quit Keychain Access.
Quit and relaunch Safari.

Adobe Reader X refuses to install - indexing service filter daemon

I have closed all applications, but Adobe Reader X refuses to install, saying that something called "indexing service filter daemon" is open. How do I get around this?

This is how I got around this install issue:
During install with the Indexing Service Filter Daemon message still open;
1) right click on My Computer
2) select Manage
3) double click Services and Applications
4) right click Indexing Service
5) select pause
6) in the Adobe X install message window, select Retry
It will have you reboot after install and it should automatically restart the service that you just paused. If not, repeat the steps and select Start instead of Pause.
Hope that helps.

Safari will not install, HELP!!

My update to Safari Beta was interrupted and never installed, but in the process Safari 2 was removed from the system. Anyways, I can't find a safari version to install, every version I have tried tells me I need a different version of the OS.
Example:Trying to install 2.0.1, at Select Destination, I select Macintosh HD and the Installer gives me the !You cannot install Safari Update on this volume this
software requires Mac OSX 10.4.2. and Safari 3 Beta give me the !You cannot install Safari 3 Beta on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update.
Any clues? I am running the latest OS and

What seems to have happened is that the 3 beta has removed Safari 2.0.4 and not installed 3 - unfortunately you cannot install 2.0.1 because it's too old and 3 won't install because it doesn't see a version 2! You should note that safari is an extension of webkit and if this has been updated in the OS to the v.3 version then this could also stop the beta from installing as it thinks it's already in there. May be the uninstaller will work if it's there?
I'm not sure what to recommend here, sorry, I'm afraid the lesson is to stay away from betas!!
Best guess from here is to archive and install from your OS disk (a pain if it's 10.4.0 I know) and update from there - any other suggestions, anybody?

HELP: Compressor 3.0.2 Update refuses to install.

I needed to install DVDSP CONTENT so I used FCPS2 Installer Disk. Unavoidably, ALL apps were re-intalled before the content loaded. So I downloaded all the app updates. All updated fine except Compressor 3.0. The 3.0.2 Update refuses to install. And, Compressor refuses to fully start-up.
There is a Receipt PKG for Compressor 3.0, 3.0.1, 3.0.2, plus Qmaster_Frameworks.pkg 3.0 and Qmaster.pkg 3.0
Removing 3.0.2 doesn't allow either Compressor 3.0.1 or 3.0.1 to install.
1) Any idea what's wrong and/or a simple way of fixing?
2) Is there a way of Installing Compressor 3.0 from the Install Disk WITHOUT returning all the other apps to their original state?
< WHY on earth does the Install UPDATE versions that are obviously newer with older versions? >
3) Will Pacifist auto-remove the current version of Compressor or do I still need to TRY to do this manually?

Interesting. Check one thing for me. Go to your Control Panels, click on Software Update, and see if "Download important updates automatically" is enabled. If not, enable it, then click the Check Now button. This will download the file to your drive, and you should see it.
If you do this, and the file still isn't there, then I'm stumped as to why it isn't downloading. Like I said, I had this same issue on both my computers, and the same solution worked both times.
Let me know how this turns out.

Application Manager refuses to install

Hi,
I'm having a substantial probelm with the Application Manager (AAM). A few days ago I performed an automatic update of Audition, but the progress got stuck at around 50%. A few minutes later the computer totally crashed and after a restart Windows 7 had to repair the entire disk. To my surprise I had to find out that the AAM removed itself from my hard disk. I mean, it wasn't there anymore and the alias icons were blank.
As suggested in the help I downloaded AAM 6.2, but it refuses to install. I also cannot deinstall the Creative Cloud applications for a new installation, because this action requires the AAM which can't be installed. It's a devil's loop. The guy from the Adobe help chat advised me to download the new AAM 6.2 and install it. That's really funny, as I've told him twice that this isn't possible. Additionally, he refused to help me, because my OS isn't in English.
Any suggestions? I'm really grateful for any help! Thanks a lot in advance.
-T.
EDIT:
I've been able to fix this issue on my own. Really took my some time and tricks...

@tsn69- Glad to hear you were able to fix the issue.
For another person reading this post, the steps I provided in this post http://forums.adobe.com/message/4726312#4726312#4726312 may help. You want to run the Adobe Cleaner Tool first followed by installing the Adobe Application Manager from one of the links provided.
