Simply will not install! Please help...

Hello guys.
Recently managed to buy myself a new MacPro and have given my old PowerMac G4 (AGP Graphics) to my daughter to work with while at university on her Art course.
This original machine (with a bus speed of 100) has been upgraded so that it now has the following specs:
Machine Name: Power Mac G4
Machine Model: PowerMac3,3
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (3,3)
Number of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.2GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 256 KB
L3 Cache (per CPU): 2MB
Memory: 1.31 GB
Bus Speed: 100 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.2.8f1
It also has a RADEON 9200 Graphics Card.
Bought FCE for her to start her editing... but it simply will not instal. It WILL install the accomp[anying "Live Type" and "Soundtrack" applications perfectly, but the "Final Cut Express" application remains dimmed out when running the installer from the disks.
Have I overlooked something in the specs and done something horribly stupid?
Any help you can offer would be mightily, mightily appreciated. Thank you.

You don't say what the Operating System is.
It should be at least OSX 10.4.6 and QuickTime 7.0.4.
Ian.
SORRY ! I have just noticed the 10.4.9 at the bottom of your post.

  • Flash player will not install please help.

    I am running IE and windows 8. flash works fine for chrome and any other web browser I use. The program I use for work speficially uses IE for maps and they will not load. I have unistalled and tried reinstalling, i tried to use it before when it was already installed on my computer, ive changed all the settings in internet options to what the help page says.  When i try to reinstall at the get.adobe all i get is a the page with the adobe logo,  but where it should have the doanload button and all the information it is just white... please help i need to get this solved before monday.

    Flash Player for IE in WIndows 8 is modified and embedded in the browser by Microsoft. You cannot update it or reinstall it from here... ONLY through Windows Update. There's a Microsoft KB update installed that prevents any modification outside of Windows Update for the ActiveX plugin in WIndows 8 or 8.1.
    Firefox, Opera and Safari use a standard Flash Player plugin. Chrome (like IE) has its own porprietary build (called "PepperFlash"), which is modified and embedded in the browser by Google. It functions independently of the Standard or ActiveX plugins.
    The problem you're seeing ISN'T a Flash Player problem. It's a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released it. The pages (or in this case the app) can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
    Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
    Adobe can't fix this because Internet Explorer 11 isn't their product and the problem is in the browser itself, not the plugin.

  • Bootcamp update 3.1 and 3.2 will not install please help

    I am running windows 7 32 bit on a silver mac book pro. it wants me to update my boot camp version from 3.0 to 3.1 but when i go to download it, it comes up with a progress box but then after a while it gives me an error basically stating that if this problem persists try just downloading it and installing it manually well i have done both ways even downloaded it form the apple website to which no avail. when i go to run the standalone updater it give me the error " the application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005) click OK to close the application" i have tried running it as an administrator, and using the compatibility mode tried it with xpsp2,3 and vista sp2,3.. please help me as i am not the only one having this problem in my department

    I donno if this is much help, but here goes.
    This was my problem: When I upgrade boot camp from 3.1 to 3.2 using the apple update software (online, and on my windows 7 64bit) It didn't upgrade. I did the restart and everything went smoothly, but it just didn't upgrade.
    Then I went on to apple boot camp software site to download the software to upgrade manually, then It says I need to locate bootcamp64.msi or something close to that.. I couldn't locate it on my hard-drive... so failure there
    Turns out that file is on the MacBook Pro Mac OS X install DVD, under boot camp - apple
    direct the location there and click on the bootcamp64 thing, and it should work  (If you have the same problem as me)

  • Libflashplayer.so will not install - Please Help!

    Hello,
    I am using a linux netbook, however I cannot install a higher version of flash player.
    I am currently using version 10.0 but want to upgrade.
    I have downloaded the flash 10.2.159 from the adobe site. I downloaded the file as a tar.gz and then I extracted the file to home/user.
    After doing this, I copied the libflashplayer.so file to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, however when I restart my netbook, flash player does not install and removes version 10.0. The 10.2.159 version has not installed on my netbook and instead, removes flash from Firefox.
    Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Some help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Wish  I had the Answer.
    I have the EXACT SAME ISSUE!!!
    Driving me CRazy,
    I have tried everything that I can possibly read  or decipher online,

  • Adobe Photoshop CS3 Will Not Install PLEASE HELP TRIED EVERYTHING

    I downloaded from Adobe the Photoshop CS3 Extended Trial directly from Adobe. (BTW I am on Vista 32)
    The first time I tried installing, ADBEPHSPCS3_WWE.exe successfully unpacked, I successfully transitioned to the Adobe Photoshop CS3 installation, and it appeared to install. After 30 minutes or so, the installer finished and simply said that shared components had installed but the Photoshop CS3 Component install failed.
    I always got in the log Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.MFCLOC,version="8.0.50727.163",type="win32",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18 e3b",processorArchitecture="x86"'. Please refer to Help and Support for more information
    This, I know, is everyones typical problem.
    I turned off firewall and antivirus.
    I uninstalled ALL Adobe and Macromedia programs, including Flash and Acrobat.
    I used Windows Install Cleanup Utility to remove them.
    I downloaded the CS3 Clear from Adobe and cleared at levels 1, 2, and 3.
    I created the Administrator account on my computer and tried everything on the Administrator account.
    I tried installing Photoshop CS3 with compatibility mode for XP SP2.
    I tried:
    1. Open an Administrator command prompt by right clicking on Start -> All
    Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt and selecting "Run as
    Administrator" and clicking "Allow" for the elevation prompt
    2. In the command prompt, type the command below
    fsutil resource setautoreset true C:\
    3. Reboot the machine
    I tried:
    Get command prompt up. It has to be run with admin rights so save yourself some time and run it this way.........Start/programs/accessories/.....right click command prompt and click run as administrator.
    Then paste these commands in 1 after the other
    regsvr32 vbscript.dll (THEN PRESS ENTER)
    and
    regsvr32 jscript.dll (AGAIN PRESS ENTER)
    I even tried installing in Safe Mode but the CS3 setup would not initialize.
    I do not know what else to do. I have CS2 which I will use, but I was really hoping to move to CS3 which is supposed to be better and faster. Does anyone know anything else to do? I am not a computer noob but I am not about to reinstall Vista. If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.

    I was in the same predicament and after spend many hours over several days trying a multitude of things I finally found an easy fix (below):
    ========================================
    Assuming you have Internet Explorer 7 go to:
    Tools/Internet option/Advanced
    Click the Reset dialog box. This will bring IE7 back to its default settings. You should reboot your computer. After logging back into Windows load IE and let it take you though its initial setup. When you are done close IE and install Photoshop.. This worked for me,,, hopefully it will work for you!

    K8N Neo2 Platinum w/amd64 3500
    1 gig of kingston mem
    200 gb and a 60 gb Maxtor sata drives (non raid setup)
    A cd burner and a dvd burner
    I can post and boot to bios with no problems and everything shows up fine.
    I insert Win xp pro cd and everything goes well and then all of a sudden it starts saying it can't find files on the cd while copying them onto the hard drive. I have tried several times and it always happens, sometimes different files. I have also tried an Win XP Home cd with the exact same results. The Win xp pro cd came with the SP2 on it.
    I have tried many combos on my drives: installing on the 200gb, installing on the 60gb, unplugging one or the other, plugging in to sata 1/2 and sata3/4!!!! I have also reinstalled all the hardware again, checking each cable as I went along. I also reseated the cpu and cleaned thermal compound, but fresh on and hooked up fan (Zalman cnps7000a)
    I HAVE NOT installed the raid drives when xp ask for the f6 thing. I don't want raid, just 2 drives.
    PLEASE Any help will be greatly appreciate!!!!!

    Hi. I just popped onto the forums to post a topic almost identical to this one, but with a few key differences - so I'd thought I'd stick it in here instead of taking up space.
    Here's the gist of things -
    My Dad and I recently built a PC over Christmas (well, he built, I watched and drank tea.), and it worked fine - half life 2 was downloaded and then completed. Now however, the problems have begun. (this isn't about half life 2, by the way.)
    First, the specs - (I know these need more detail, such as PSU and voltages. I'll add those soon.)
    MSI K8N Neo2 Nvidia nForce 3 Ultra Chipset motherboard
    Athlon 64 Bit 3000+ CPU
    1GB Corsair RAM
    160 GB Sata Hard Drive
    nVIDIA GeForec 6800 GT
    Windows XP Home Edition SP2
    Bios V 1.3
    Plus onboard sound, floppy/7-in-1 card reader and DVD/CD RW. I'll post the motherboard specs later, I'm at work at the moment and I can't remember them.
    Right, down to business - I tried to connect and install an external wireless LAN card through a USB connection (I know this card works as it was used on my old PC) and to cut a long story short, I messed it up by using the wrong drivers - and I made things worse by trying to fix it in a hurry, basically screwing up windows. So, I'd thought I'd re-format the hard drive and re-install windows. It was a new PC, there was nothing important on it, and I thought it was about time I learnt how to do a format anyway.
    Now the problem - despite formatting my hard drive (and thus removing the old, bad, copy of windows) Windows XP Home will now not complete its installation.
    It gets through to the third part of the installation (i.e. my computer has rebooted twice so far) where it asks you questions like "Lets set up windows together" and "Lets choose your automatic update settings". Here, (and I've tried this formatting/reinstallatino twice) the PC reboots for no reason, and the standard "Your computer has restarted due to a failure" on a black screen with white writing pops up - offering to start normally, with last known good configuration or in safe mode.
    Still with me? Phew, almost there...
    Now, whatever I choose, the computer reboots again and then a BLUE screen with white writing pops up saying my computer was turned off in order to stop damage occuring. Here's a summary of the writing including what I thought were the important points:-
    "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
    Disable bios memory options like caching or shadowing
    STOP: 0x0000000D1 (0x00FFFFE3, 0x00000002, 0x0000000, 0xF7AD24EB)
    Usbochi.sys-address F7AD24EB base at F7ACF000, Datestamp 41107d6"
    Also, two more important points. When my dad was putting together the PC, we made changes to the bios, AFTER windows was installed. (Although I'm at work and haven't got them with me yet - I'll post them later.) This means these changes are still present - could they be causing the problem? (And hence would resetting the CMOS help?)
    Secondly, I have a SATA hard drive. I've already tried using the SATA drivers from floppy during windows installation, but when I do this the same problem occurs, even earlier - this time windows doesn't even finish copying basic setup files. It jams on "cdaudio.sys" and then crashes to the blue screen.
    Any suggestions or ideas you guys have would be of great help - I'm all out of them myself!
    (Also, one more point - I conducted the format by changing the bios boot setting to boot from CD, then booting from the windows CD, then deleting the partition/formating the HD/re-installion windows in this manner.)
    Remember - a big shiney hug for the first person to help me back to half life 2 goodness!
    Cheers,
    Spurros.
    EDIT - the floppy I used to install the SATA drivers had nforce 3 SATA RAID driver (G72-NVSA020) written on it.
