"The application cant be found" after downloading a program.
Literally just bought a MACBOOK AIR and just tried to download 2 programs, Oovoo and Dropbox. Each time they finish the download and I click on it to install them I get the message : THE APPLICATION CAN NOT BE FOUND.
This is extremely frustrating, considering its a brand new computer out of the box ...
Any solutions? Suggestions? The program's icon wont even come up on the desktop, obviously ... But it shows in the aplication folder, but when I lick on it, it wont open the program.
HELP!!
Personally I would boot into recovery & reinstall the OS.
If it is new I assume you have nothing to lose (not migrated data to it). The default install option will only try to replace files in place anyway. Backup if you do have an valuable data.
oovoo & Dropbox both download as .dmg files (disk images). It suggests it could be similar to another issue I saw with 10.9 where the installed Disk Utility app appeared to be corrupt. Perhaps your Disk Utility 'diskmounter' helper is damaged.
The user had sucess with a reinstall.

Error message of "404 - page not found" after downloading and installing Firefox 15
Error message of "404 page not found" after downloading the latest version of Firefox.
This sometimes is the result of firewall software protecting you from changed applications. Or it might be something else. Can you review this article and see whether it helps: [[Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can]].

CS6 photoshop not found after downloading and putting in serial number
CS6 photoshop not found after downloading and putting in valid serial number. Only extended version shows up as available. How do I just download CS6 photoshop only??
Thanks!Nowhere during the installation does it give me the option to select the previous version I purchased! This is a new install on a new computer because my other computer no longer works. There is no option for me to select CS6 PS (NON EXTENDED) on the download from Adobe! When I install it only installs the extended version and tells me my serial number is valid but not for the extended. When you provided the link to the page that has the downloads, all that loads is the extended version. Can you please give me a link to the CS6 (not extended) so I can get back to work? I also was able to get the hard drive out of my computer that no longer works and put it on my new computer I'm trying to install CS6 on and the installer gave me NO OPTIONS to enter my old serial#.
This is beyond frustrating!!!! I have a computer go out on me, and have to buy a new computer, then when I try to install CS6 PS it will not install. In the meantime I'm trying to keep my small business going to stay in business. I can't call any one from adobe. All I can do is send emails to get this resolved and wait.
Please please help me! -

Actually, I upgraded to mac Osx I had iphoto,imovie, the whole work; However. After downloading Osx 10.5.8 Only I photo would word, imovie would not work, my camera was not recognized. itunes was ok, After my system start having a problem I tried to re-download Mac Osx again, then I lost Imovie,iphoto, and itunes, recently I was able to get itunes back by downloading quicktime 7.7, in which i discovered through the support communities. Now I would like to
get imove, i photo if at all possible. I've read that by installing a hex something, that it works fine. But it seems to be complicated to install. Can I get some advise on this issue foe iBook G4 10.5.8? Let me know Apples are expensive. maybe it's time for a windows system. I've also heard that the refurbished mac are a piece of trash from some reviews.You can't upgrade from Mac OS X 10.4 to Mac OS X 10.5 via a download. You would have to buy the DVD and upgrade that way.
Any applications that were using Classic emulation (OS 9 applications) in Mac OS X 10.4 would be lost in an upgrade to Mac OS X 10.5.
I've also heard that the refurbished mac are a piece of trash from some reviews.
That depends on who does the refurbishing. If you buy a refurbished Mac directly from Apple, it will be as good as a new Mac and will even have the one-year warranty that comes with a new Mac. If you buy a "refurbished" Mac from an eBay seller, all bets are off. -
I activated an iTunes gift card, my iPod showed the amount available ($15) then after downloading 2 songs my balance was $.04. Any ideas on what happened to the rest of my funds or how I can find out where the rest of my money went?
- Have youwent to yur iTunes account looked at your puchase history for purchases thant y might have forgotton?
- Maybe you had an unpaid balance before redeeming the card.
- Contact iTunes

During the final step of installing after download, I get an error - The Installer encountered an error that caused installation to fail.
Nobody can tell you anything. You have not provided any proper system information or even told us what you are actually downloading.

I accidentally uninstalled the Illustrator CC from my mac. Now I can't re-download the application. Everytime I click "Download", it takes me to the creative cloud app and only shows me the app is up to date. Is there any way I can re-download and reinstall Illustrator CC?
Have you already used the Cleaner Tool?

how can i install AppRadio application...i am in Tunisia and the application is not found in the Tunisian AppStore...it's essensual for piloting my Pioneer SPH-D01 AppRadio....please how can i get this application ...thanks
If it's not available in the store in which you have your account, you're pretty much out of luck. In order to purchase from the U.S. iTunes Store you need a)a valid billing address in the U.S., b) a credit/debit card billed to that address or an iTunes prepaid card purchased in the U.S. and c) to be physically located in the U.S. at the time of purchase.

Finder - The application cannot be found.
Installed recent Apple security update on 7/3/08, now running OS X 10.5.4. Clicking on the Finder logo on the Dock gives "The application cannot be found."
This is predictably spectacular news. While the Finder might not be perfect, just see how long you'd last without it. For instance, try to empty your trash. Thankfully, I normally use Butler for working with the system and generally don't use Finder, except to empty the trash and move occassional files around.
I've been fumbling along with this for less than a week but finally have time to troubleshoot this issue. In the interim, I managed to mount a disk image and load Path Finder, which is a Finder alternative. While it looks nice, and works as advertised, I'd rather not have to pay to be able to move files graphically. Similarly, Spotlight no longer returns search results, though I can type searches.
Troubleshooting I've done so far:
1. Boot from my 10.5 upgrade DVD.
2. Run "Disk Utility" from 10.5 upgrade DVD. Selected "Verify Permissions". Selected "Fix Permissions". Then selected "Verify disk", but that didn't give any errors.
3. Installed OnyX.
4. Using Onyx, selected "Verify - Preferences". There was something wrong with my java.plist file so I deleted that. No other errors.
5. Onyx - Automation - selected everything. Which means:
"Repair Permissions"
"Execute Maintenance Scripts"
"Rebuild LaunchServices"
"Rebuild Display of folders content"
"Cleaning system cache"
"Cleaning User cache"
"Cleaning fonts cache"
"Cleaning Logs and Crashreporter"
"Cleaning Temporary items"
"Cleaning Recent items and web browsers' history"
5. Funny enough, before OnyX prompted me to reboot it SHOWED A FINDER WINDOW.
6. Reboot. Finder still gives "The application cannot be found."
7. Onyx - Parameters - Finder - Restore Defaults.
8. Reboot.
9. Finder still gives "The application cannot be found."
l0. Post to Apple support forums.Doing a tail -f /var/log/system.log showed no new entries when I tried to launch Finder. Similarly, bringing up Console with "All Messages" also brings up nothing when I try to launch finder.
Now, doing a ls -l of /System/Library/CoreServices brings up this gem:
-rwxr-xr-x@ 1 root wheel 0 Sep 23 2007 Finder
There's also no Finder.app in there.
locate Finder.app | egrep -v -i "Path Finder"
gives nothing as well.
I now know how the Windows people I've met feel when some bright management-type has deleted explorer.exe. However, I don't really fit into any of those categories, and I'm a bit unsettled about this all being a regular security update.
So, then, where would I go find Finder.app, or is it supposed to be just a symlink to something else? I've got a PPC iMac running 10.4, but I'd suspect that I can't JUST copy the directory on over without borking something. -
I have lost my mail application on the dock and in the application folder. Is a download available for osx 10.6?
Possibly installing the big 10.5.8 Combo will bring it back, but first...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
1058 Combo Update, 10.5.8...

Repair Permissions afterwords, reboot. -

get the following message when trying to download iTunes, " program C:\program files (x86)\itunes\ituneshelper.exe" R6034 attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly, any help or experience with this?
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.
