Software installs but will not run

The software installs but when you try to open it the window flashes on the screen for a split second and then goes away. Has anyone seen this problem before? Please help!

My anti virus was already disabled. I uninstalled Quick Time and made sure there was nothing else running like a fire wall or anything. I tried to install it again and it would install the ipod but not the itunes.
I installed everything on a second computer and it went off without a hitch.
Any ideas??

I have recently purchased finale 2011, and it installs, but will not run? Any idea what the problem is?

I have recently purchased the finale 2011 music program, and it installs without any problems, but will not run when I try to start up the program. It acts like it is going to start, but stops when loading the plugins. I have been talking with Finale tech support for three days, and they are coming up empty, but they are still trying. Any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks,
John

Try booting in Safe Mode (hold the shift key while booting until the grey progress bar appears).
If you're able to log-in, then re-boot and log-in

FLASH PLAYER INSTALLS BUT WILL NOT RUN

I have installed Flash Player multiple times. The installation indicates it was successful, the Control Panel and list of programs installed indicate that the program is present but when I run a web site that requires it, I get a message that I need to install it. The Adobe Flash Player Help does not indicate that it is installed.
Running Windows 7 Home Premium , 32 bit; service pack 1; IE 9.0.8112 The computer is a Dell Laptop with Intel (R) core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5800 @ 2.0 GHz 2.00 GHz with 3.00GB RAM. Tech specs say 2.33 GHz is required. Is this the problem? Are there earlier versions of Flash Point that will work?

I went to the discussion you referenced and did the following ;
Under Internet Options, I disabled Protective Mode and restarted the computer. Flash Player did not work. I then removed Flash Player using Windows uninstall via the Control Panel. I reloaded Flash Player with Protective mode still off. After Flash Player successfully loaded, I turned Protective mode back on ( I didn’t want to run in unprotected mode) I restarted the computer and Flash Player worked and has been ever since. Thank you.

ITunes installs but will not run post install in SERVER 2003

I have MS Server 2003 as my OS. I haven't used iTunes in a long time because I never got it to work on my computer. I downloaded anapod explorer and that has worked well for me, but I really would like to try iTunes again as I have several friends that tell me how wonderful it is.
Anyways, I install iTunes and it goes through the initial setup procedure, then will not actually show up. I see iTunes.exe in my task manager for about 10 seconds then it disappears. No error message, no nothing. I've tried new versions, old versions, standalone quicktime, deleting "ipod/apple" anything out of the registry. I've force-disabled DEP.
I'm a well seasoned windows user, not so much mac stuff, but I've been messing with this for 3+ hours now, and can't seem to get it to run.
Suggestions are appreciated, thanks.

I don't think your OS is on the list of supported operating systems, but still.
Does your Quicktime work? iTunes can't work without it and the fault seemed to relate to a Quicktime file.
Sometimes installing the stand alone QUicktime works.
First completely remove Quicktime using the method here: it is not for your OS but I expect you can adjust.
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
When you come to the system32 folder you can remove any file with Quicktime in the name.
There can also be problems with incompatible codec packs. If you have any of the following:
ACE & K-Lite mega codecs package, QT alternative, Storm codec, WinAVI video converter, Mpcstar, (possibly starcodec pack, 3ivx)
Uninstall them before installing the stand alone QUicktime.
Download the version of Quicktime that does not include iTunes from here:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
Note that it is not the default option.

ITunes installs but will not run. It says it was not installed correctly?

I have tried installing the new iTunes (19/2/13) and when I try and run it, it comes up saying 'iTunes was not installed correctly, please reinstall' and error code 7.
I have tried repairing it, reinstalling it and installing an earlier version. Please help.

A complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes and related software components is worth a try (7s can indicate trouble with other software components like Apple Application Support). See the following documents for instructions:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
... But if no joy there, let's check to see if there's a .NET issue underlying this:

Lightroom 5.5 installs but will not run

Updated Lightroom 5.4 to 5.5 from Creative Cloud Desktop (my first mistake), it refuses to run. Restored my system and trying to run again, I found my catalog was removed (restore was my second mistake). Adobe rep had me uninstall, that did not work. Any ideas on what may be going on are appreciated.

There seem to be a dozen threads in this forum with nearly identical titles, and you will find the answer there, I'm sure

My adobe captivate6 installs but does not run on my windows7 dell inspiron

my adobe captivate6 installs but does not run on my windows7 dell inspiron with 4gb ram and 500gb hdsk, i downloaded the trial first 32bit and it installed fine and didnt run. so i thought that a full version with a 64bit installation will do the trick, but after that the captivate 6 did not still work on my system. i also tried it on an acer with duo core and the captivate software installed and did not still work. it only shows the captivate flash screen.
a friend installed his on an acer laptop 64bit, i3processor, and it works fine. please i will be glad if i can be helped on how to correct this
thanks

Have you tried right clicking on the Cp icon and selecting Run as Administrator? This is something you MUST do in Win7 but was not necessary on Xp.

BB Desktop Software 6.1 will not run on Windows 7 64-Bit

I wrote to the forum of my problem, and a nice person here told me that I may be having the same problem as others and to repost my question to this link
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Desktop-Software-for-PC/BB-Desktop-Software-6-1-will-not-run-...
I went there and cannot find a button to tick to post to that page, so I went one back and posted my problem in hopes of finding help. BB4matt even told me what my laptop is. A Genuine Windows 7 home Premium 64 bit Operating System, and that Desktop 6.1 will not run on this system, to copy my problen to the above link, (which I couldn't figure out how to do) or start a new one under the heading I used, that I MIGHT attract a guru of sorts, BB Tech Advisor, ViciousFerret. MR FERRET, please help!
Thank you all so much in advance once again! (Below is my original plea for help.)

Hi.
I have read in these forums and am still lost. I know my answer should be in hre somewhere, but if it is I am unable to understand it, so be patient as I may be reasking an already answered question.
I try to be a good lil girl and follow forum rules, but am lost here.
I bought a new laptop, a Dell 17R It runs Win 7 I think. Lots of ROM/RAM. I dowloaded the desktop program from bb dot com and cannot get it to work. First it asked me to trouble shoot, and reconfigured the DT prog for Win XP.
It then acknowledged my Torch and dld my photos. Then it decided I didn't have space and undid whatever it did.
NOW I cannot get the program, once it opens to recognise my phone at all! ACK!!
I need someone who understands this gobbltygook to explain to me what to do. I need to unload my photos, as I use my phone to take pix more than I would have thought.
I am a photog, and it's better than my first digital this Torch 9800 is, and video quality, OMG, but the vids are too big to upload from the phone..........(IDK why cuz it did at Christmas?)
Anyway, please help me here, as I can use a computer, e-mail, Facebook, Picassa, other than that, IDK too much about them. (It took my YEARS to spring for this laptop)
Thank you in advance for your patience.

I have the same issue. It gets to a desktop manager picture and just freezes.

Program runs in win 7-64 Pro BUT will not run in win 7 home or vista.

Program runs in win 7-64 Pro BUT will not run in win 7 home or vista.
I'm testing 32bit software that will run in 7-64 Pro but will not in win 7 home premium or vista.
The 7-64 Pro machine is NOT running the program in XP mode although is is being run as admin. The 7 home premium and vista beta testers have tried every work around/mode, admin mode, and anti-virus exception. I've run process explorer & WinMerge to evaluate
the differences between os operations & dlls loaded but am unable to find the OS issue.
Currently 2-win7-64 machines, 1 vista machine and 1 win 7 machine had no issues with the program as it started up and ran immediately.
After 3 beta's 30 hours of testing & 50 of my own, I believe I've narrowed the issue down to the win 7 home premium and vista os's.
Can anyone here suggest other ways to further narrow it down so as to provide functionality on all 3 os's?

You must provide the exact name and version of the software for anyone to attempt to answer your question. Primarily the functionality of any software is entirely dependent on what platforms the publisher intended the software to run on.

Creative Cloud Creative Cloud Photoshop installs but will not launch

Hi, my Creative Cloud Photoshop latest version installs but will not launch. When I try it opens a page with a long error code report. I uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop several times with the same result. I downloaded and tried the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, as I found as a solution in the help forum, but since I uninstalled Photoshop before I ran the Cleaner Tool there are installed applications, and AdobeCreativeCloudDriver. Should I hit the clean all CS6 button at the bottom of the window. There is nothing including Photoshop in this list.

You will have to provide system info and the exact errors. Nobody can help based on vague "This doesn't work" posts.

The slide show runs in "live mode" but will not run from the browser.

Here is the link to the web page http://www.williamshomesteadranch.com/welldone.html
This is the first time that I've tried to use a widget and it looks good, but will not run fromthe browser.

The answer to the problem is very simple, the main images cannot be found. Please have a look at the following markup starting with line 305 or thereabouts:
      <ul id="ImageSlideShow" title="Jesse the Border Collie">
        <li><a href=Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jacksjesse251x270.jpg src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jacksjesse251x270.jpg" title="Jesse"><img src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jacksjessethumbnail.jpg" alt="photos-1.jpg" /></a></li>
        <li><a href=Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackandjesseonbeach257x381.jpg src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackandjesseonbeach257x381.jpg" title="Jesse and his Friend"><img src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackandjesseonbeachthumbnail.jpg" alt="photos-2.jpg" /></a></li>
        <li><a href=Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjessesoccer251x378.jpg src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjessesoccer251x378.jpg" title="Jesse playing soccer with his friend"><img src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjessesoccerthumbnail.jpg" alt="photos-3.jpg" /></a></li>
        <li><a href=Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjesserestbeach365x246.jpg src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjesserestbeach365x246.jpg" title="Jesse and his Friend resting"><img src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjesserestbeachthumbnail.jpg" alt="photos-4.jpg" /></a></li>
        <li><a href=Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjessedwnbeach250x350.jpg src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjessedwnbeach250x350.jpg" title="A Walk down the Beach"><img src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackjessedwnbeachthumbnail.jpg" alt="photos-5.jpg" /></a></li>
      </ul>
Now take a closer look at the first image.
The thumbnail is jacksjessethumbnail.jpg and, according to the markup, can be found at http://www.williamshomesteadranch.com/Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jacksjessethumbnail.jpg. Bless me, the thumnail is there. No problem here.
The main image is jacksjesse251x270.jpg and, according to the markup, can be found at http://www.williamshomesteadranch.com/Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jacksjesse251x270.jpg. Lo and behold, the image cannot be found. The problem must be here.
We can do the same analysis for each of the remaining images with the same result. This means that the main images have not been uploaded to the correct folder or that the path to the main image is incorrect.
Assuming that the path to the main image is correct, using DW, have a look in your local folder as follows
Then 1. single left click on the jackandjesse folder to highlight it, 2. click on the symchronise button, 3. make sure you have the correct selections in the Synchronize Files dialog and click on preview.
Then click on OK as per
and the files should be uploaded to the correct remote folder.
