Skype Installation Problems

When I try and download Skype (Version 5.1), I keep receiving "Error writing to file", then it asks to" verify that you have access to that directory." It then notifys that "Skype installation failed; code 1603. A fatal error occurred during installation."
Has anyone experienced this? If so, any suggestions? Thanks!

Redownload the Skype installer.
Also, run it with Administrative Privileges (Right click, Run as Administrator)
I have more HP devices than you'd expect.
1 HP TouchPad 32 GB with Android
2 HP Touchsmarts (310-1000z and IQ527)
2 HP Printers (J6480 and J5750)
1 Laptop (HP DV6253CL)
Have at least some experience in each of those devices, and i'll do my best to help you.
Kudos if I helped!

Win7 Skype installation problem

Dears,
I tried to install the latest version of Skype today.
During installation process, it always pops up a message "Could not open key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE32\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Feature Control\FEATURE_MAXCONNECTIONSPERSERVER. Vertify you have suffient access to that key, or contact your support personnel"
Then the installation process failed and another message pops up with an error code:1603
I googled some answers and some people give the following suggest:
Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type regedit and press OK button. This will open Windows Registry editor.
But I can not find "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE32"; I can only find "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"
Anyone knows what I should do now?
many thanks
Hui

Plz ignore the above message.

Skype Installer 6.22.81.105.msi

I would greatly appreciate a link to download Skype Installer 6.22.81.105.msi Thanks and regards, Roy

Again Skype installer did not work for latest version Skype 7.3.0.101 for Windows XP but this time I know it is a Skype problem and not me or my computer, because it failed again and told me that an older version Skype 7.3 could not be removed, I am not surprised, I only had 7.2 at the time, and 7.3 was what I was trying to install. So Mr Skype/Microsoft, you still have some work to do. However my original solution of the get around does still work, and I use it instead. See my Post here http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Skype-7-2-0-103-Does-not-install/m-p/3906816 But note the new link in the next post. http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_7.3.0.101.msi

HpSdpAppCoreApp
"The feature you are trying to use in on a network resource that is unavailable.
Click OK to try again, or enter an alternative pathway to a folder containing the installation package "HpSdpAppCoreApp.msi" in the box below."
The last time I dug through some files on my own, bad things happened.

Installation problem on SUSE 12.1

Hi
I'm a Linux beginner and I am trying to install LV on SUSE 12.1
I've also posted my problems on Lava:
http://lavag.org/topic/15240-labview-installation-problem-on-suse-121/
The installation started and it looks quite all right, but when I try to start LabVIEW, the application just sits in the taskbar for about 20 seconds and then just disappears.
Any ideas?
Is there a way to debug to see what's going on?
Cheers,
Mike
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Mike,
Unfortunately, there are no versions of LabVIEW supported on SUSE 12.1 at present. Here's a link to LabVIEW version compatibility with different Linux distributions. I saw from your other forum that you're attempting to install LabVIEW 2009, which is certified for SUSE 11.0 at the latest.

So we tried to unistall to curently version. This was running badly. Now there entry is removed from windows software, but the software is still on the system. Always if we try to install any java, we get a failure message with no error discription. So we looked for some installation logs, but I can't find the problem. Can you have a look? What can I do?
Thank you guys for your support.

Xp_logininfo Installation problem

Hello gurus,
I'm facing the same problem as described in this link:
Re: xp_logininfo "Installation problem on windows 2003 with Sql 2005"
the error I get is similiar:
<i>The below message comes from executing the command master..xp_logininfo '<domain>\<user> ' Msg 15404, Level 16, State 11, Procedure xp_logininfo, Line 62 Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user '<domain>\<user> ', error code 0x534. The statement has been terminated</i>
but I just don't get how to solve it.
-I've tried to use the profiler but didn't find any information that will help me to solve.
-One of the guys wrote to add "logon rights" to the user ... what does it mean ?
Please advice,
Dimitry Haritonov

Hi sven,
Thank you very much for the quick and direct answer.
The problem was that the user that runs the SQL SERVER service didn't have authorization to retrieve information from active directory.
I've changed the service user, run the sapinst again, and after it succeeded I've returned the previous user.
Best regards,
Dimitry Haritonov

Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit)

First of all my windows is not genuine, but on my friend's desktop oracle download and installation worked fine, he chose "create and configure database" options, and it works very well on his desktop, though his windows is also illegitimate. In my case, when I select "Create and configure database" option and pressed 'next",
(Go to my blog to see it with snapshots: Computer Science: Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit))
it asks to select class, I select "Desktop class" and pressed "next". The moment I pressed "next", the whole setup thing disappeared like it was never started. I searched for all possible reasons for why its not getting installed on my laptop, I used registry cleaner s/w, deleted 25 GB of data to create free space if it were the problem, increased the virtual memory to increase the space for RAM, I did almost everything to get this setup working, but I found no success with the "Create and Configure database" option
and
then
I chose a "database software only" option and chose to store in a folder w/o spaces. This way, I got database s/w only and then later I found "Database configuration Assistant (DBCA)" from windows START button and clicked to create and configure database manually. The steps are pretty much interactive and doesn't involve much brainstorming.
The values I filled for
1) Global Database Name : orcl
2) System Identifier : orcl
3) I chose common password for both SYS and SYSTEM
4) while on Enterprise Manager Configuration step, It asked me to create and configure listener in oracle home, so for that too, I typed "netca" in windows START menu and clicked it. There I added a listener.
5) I chose a Storage area which was the Oracle-home itself i.e. where our installation files goes , in my case it is : C:\oracle_base\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oradata
6) Then after few more nitty-gritty clicks, we are set to go !
Finally to write SQL code and to create your first TABLE , type "sqlplus" in windows "START" menu and click it when it appears. A command-prompt like window appears , which will ask you for username and password, so here they are :
Username : sys/ as sysdba
Password : (its the one you created in step 3 stated above )
After this you are ready to write your first SQL command.

Is this your solution to your original post at Oracle database 11g release 2 installation on windows 7 (64-bit) ?
Pl be aware that you should not create any custom objects in SYS or SYSTEM schema - you should create any such objects in a separate custom schema.

Lightroom 3.2 Installation Problem on Windows 7 64-bit

Lightroom 3.2 Installation Problem on Windows 7 64-bit
I can't install Lightroom 3.2 (German) on my computer (Windows 7 Professional 64-bit).
While copying the extracted program files the following error message appears:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {6435B7C0-E0C8-3EA2-91AE-7640034EAFCE}. HRESULT: 0x80070002.
I found out that other users had the same problem, and couldn't find a solution.
Perhaps it is a Microsoft .NET Framework related problem. But after installing .NET Framework 4 nothing changed.
Thanks for ideas to solve the problem.

Thanks for your advice, Mr. McLion.
I downloaded the 3.4.1 version and started the installation as administrator. Unfortunately the same error message occured again.
Then I tried to install the 32-bit version (although I prefer a 64-bit program on a 64-bit operating system). A similar error message appeared at the same point of installation progress, but with another combination of numbers and letters in brackets.

Installation problem for Java EE 5 SDK Update 2

Hi ,
I have jdk1.5.0_12 (J2SE) installed on my Windows XP. Now i am trying to install J2EE on my machine.I tried to install it twice but it comes to a halt after completing 45% at the same jar file. Following is the link which shows it comes to a halt.
http://img141.imageshack.us/my.php?image=j2eeinstallhangupav8.png
Also I wanted to know if I uninstall the J2SE and then install only J2EE will that be fine.Because I believe J2EE is a superset of J2SE ?
Thanks in advance.

For the difference between Java EE and Java SE read here:

For the installation problem, I don�t know how to help you... maybe here you can find some ideas:

PPStream installation problem on Windows 7

I just recently install bootcamp and use bootcamp to install windows 7 pro. Everything seems fine until i download PPStream and install it. The installation process was smooth just like usual. However, when it finishes installing, it asked me if i wanna open the PPStream. and i said yes. guess what, nothing happened, then the PPStream icon on desktop is not a normal app icon, it's like a unknown file icon with the reflash arrow on the bottom right corner.
I thought it might be the installation problem, then i went into Control Panel and uninstall the app, and reinstall PPStream, the same thing happened, and every time i click the PPStream icon on desktop, windows explorer stopped working. Anyone knows what's going on or got experience like this before? i will appreciate for any input. thanks

很简单。你子安装的过程中。看一下安装的目录。默认是安装在苹果的系统盘里的。而这个盘是只读的。所以管理器会崩溃。只要改到c盘的目录就可以了。
very easy, reinstall pps. when install pps directory change e : drive ---- to c: drive ... you area set to watch

Installation problem w/Vista

Boot Camp/Vista installation problem
MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GB RAM, Snow Leopard 10.6.2.
Trying to install Windows Vista Home Premium using Boot Camp.
Started Boot Camp Installer and created 32GB partition. Inserted Vista disk as instructed and clicked on Start Installation.
Black screen appeared looking like this:
1.
2.
Select CD-ROM Boot Type: _
That last underline was flashing, waiting for input.
First off, I don't know what to type in, but . . .
The keyboard appears to be disabled because no keystroke registers, nor Return/Enter. Even pressing caps lock or num lock fails to register a light on those keys.
The only way out is to hold down the power key until shutdown, then restart with Eject key depressed to eject Vista disk.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi RebelGood,
have a look here http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=467704 for instructions/solution.
Basically you have to make yourself a copy of your Vista disc using the files of that disc and a programm called oscdimg.exe plus a burning program.
And it had to be done on a Windows PC or in virtualized Windows (using Parallels/Fusion/VirtualBox) on your Mac.
