The Installer Can't Create the Folder "Var/Folder/zc...
I've been trying to install the 10.7.5 update AND an iPhoto update from an App Store notification. Neither are working. I get an "Unknown Error" message at the app store and the following message when I click to install the 10.7.5 pkg:
The installer can't create the folder "var/folders/zc/c2c_sr*n3tl66tr7dwvltr84000gn/T/install.14239UqZAxL
I've run "Repair Disc Permissions" in Utilities.
Any suggestions? I've seen this problem addressed in other discussions, but none of those solutions seem to work for me. Thanks in advance.Hi, it's important to Repair the Disk, or at least Verify Disk before Repairing Permissions.
Also, how much free space is on your Hard Drive?
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions. -

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -

The installer is damaged. The installer can't open the package. (FCS 2)
Hi, everytime I try to install Final Cut Studio 2 on my Mac Book Pro (10.6.2), I get this message:
The installer is damaged.
The installer can't open the package. There may be a problem with file ownership or permissions.
When i run Disk Utility, the package seems to have no problems. I'm sure the dmg is not corrupted since I was able to install this on my iMac G5 (10.5).
Help!
Thanks...Locate the original disks and make a new dmg. I've had to do this occasionally. Not sure why the installer disk image breaks, but it does. In fact, I've had more problems with the Adobe disk images I've made. They seem to install once, and then break, which totally defeats the purpose of making them. The FCS dmgs I've made have lasted a while, and I've used them about 6 or 7 times. But I did have to recreate them twice in 3 years.
If it says the installer can't use it, best bet is, you won't be able to fix it. One thing you could try though, copy them to a desktop and then run them. It could have to do with trying to run them over a managed network. -
The installation can't find the OS CD
I have gotten to the GUI part of the install. It is now asking for me to insert the CD with the Operating Environment. I have tried all three CD's to no avail. The Installation CD and SW1 CD are bootable. But when I get to this part, the CD drive spins up and instantly stops spinning and ejects the CD telling me that this is not the correct CD. Any ideas? Thank you.
Here is a technote I wrote for my archives when I found this same problem with my SunBlade 100's. Obscurely you will find this problem doc'd with the SUN Install Release Notes under subtitle "Custom Jumpstart fails..." (yes- this has nothing to do with custom jumpstart). Hope this works...
SUNBLADE INSTALL FROM CDROM
PROBLEM: Coming of the SUNBlade specific boot CD "Installation" for 8 10/00 or 8 1/01 all goes well until you are asked for CD #2. From here it fails stating you inserted the wrong CDROM.
RESOLUTION: The installation release notes document the problem, but not the resolution (very clear anyway- the doc states the problem is specific to Jumpstart).
1. Reboot when it ask for CD #2 (use the webstart tools on right side for term prompt)
2. It will run an auto start script for the first CD #1 on boot. Right click on the screen, get to a terminal and delete /etc/rc2.d/S96webstart and reboot
3. Login into the CDE environment, get to a prompt and execute the installer #./cdrom/cdrom0/installer -

ITunes 10.5 installer can't create folder
I get this error message when trying to install iTunes 10.5. Apparently the installation can't create the folder: /var/folders/La/LaQAHHmZGs8NrqEezgVzH++++TI/-Tmp-/Install.247cicHOQ/Receipts. What is causing this and how can I fix it?
Thanks.10.5 has not be released to the general public since it is a BETA, so this is not the place to ask for help with this. Since the BETA is available officially for registered developers only, as a registered developer you have direct access to the appropriate Apple personnel for this and access to the developer's discussions area.

My OS is windows 7, and I'm getting mad because i can update my music in my iphone thanks.
Hello Skip Grantham,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
it may be necessary to remove all traces of iTunes and related software components from your computer before reinstalling iTunes.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
Best of luck,

I am trying to install software and am getting the following prompt.
"Installation Failed, the installer cant create the folder "var/folders/sq/2fzf3s_d2bzb21159nbwkb2r0000gn/T//install.3732dq0ogT.
How do I repair thisBack up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line on this page to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar. -
Can't update to 10.5.4 (can't create the folder "/private/temp/MacOSXUpd.."
I've been unable to perform the updates from 10.5.2 to 10.5.4. When it shows me the updates as checked boxes and I proceed, it just says once I restart that its unable to update. . "could not create the folder "private/temp/MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.4pky28Mtquf2". Without the upgrade I've been having trouble using .me, as my computer won't seem to sync with the site. Any help would be greatly appreciated
SteveI don't know why Software Update can't create the file it needs, but you can download the update manually from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1054comboupdate.html
It is a big baby, so backup first... and don't do anything else whilst it is installing! (i.e. quit all other applications before running the installer -or if you want to be ultra cautious, do a safe boot after downloading, and then run it within a clean environment). -
Cannot publish to folder - message says "Can't create the file...."
Can't create the file "Momoola.com." The disk may be damaged, full or you may not have sufficient access privileges.
I havent' changed anything since the last time I published to this folder. I ran Disk Utility and Repaired Permissions in case that was the problem, but I'm still getting the same error message.
Don't think disk is damaged. Have about 7 gigs left on HD, so that's not it.
Any ideas?I can offer a shotgun effect fix but don't know if any a definite fix for this. Try the following:
close iWeb.
delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
reboot.
launch iWeb and try again.
If that doesn't help continue with:
move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
launch iWeb and try again.
