TROUBLING INSTALLING PROGRAMS

Our PC is a TouchSmart 310 1025a model.  It runs on Windows 7. There is something wrong with it installing programs.  We had a problem where our printer stopped working a couple of months ago.  My husband tried to re-install it and couldn't so assumed the printer was at fault.  The printer is a HP Wireless type.  We just bought a new Norton anti-virus as the old one was expiring and tried to install it.  It will not install.  When you put the disc in, it doesn't do anything.  When I go into Computers and then right click, it will come up with the options.  When I click "Launch Norton" it doesn't do anything.  It is supposed to then come up with Install Norton 360 but it doesn't.
It is very frustrating as we now have no anti-virus protection and also no printer.  Can you please help us????!!!!
Thanks,
Shelley

  • Having trouble installing programs on ibook g4

    I just bought an ibook g4 (1.3 gig 512mb OSX 10.3.9) from my friend the other day. I tried installing a couple of programs (audacity, safari 4, and then firefox) I made sure that my computer was capable to run all of these programs. I was able to install the programs but none of them will open. I can double click on the icons and they act they they'll open but nothing happens. Can someone help me?

    Winded:
    The only thing that I've done was rename the admin from his to mine.
    Not a good strategy, as you inherit any issues he may have had. Here are some options:
    • Get new install disks. You can either purchase the Full Retail Version, or, depending on just which iBook G4 you have, you can call Apple Customer Service 1-800-767-2775 for original disks.
    • You can create a new Admin User and delete the old one. (Post back for directinos, if needed).
    • Use the procedure outlined here by Niel to make the setup Assitant run again and create a new NetInfo database.

  • Having trouble installing programs

    I am taking the initiatve and downloading some programs that I think will get me the videos that I want. One problem, I can't download them! I clicked 'download now' and then the program downloaded in the little screen. Then the trouble starts. A screen pops up that says there is no default appliaction for the document and it gives me the option to choose one. What application do I choose to download the program? Or am I doing it totally wrong? Please just tell me what to do.....

    If the files you downloaded have names ending in .exe, try using CrossOver Mac.
    If they have names ending in .sit, .sitx, .bin, or .hqx, use StuffIt Expander to open the files.
    If they have names ending in .dmg or .img, choose the DiskImageMounter as the application.

  • I just paid the $9,99 a month to have access to Photoshop and lightroom.  I am having trouble installing the programs and when I installed on Photoshop it said "trial"- this isn't suppose to be a trial but  a resource I pay for monthly for a year right?

    What turns the trial into the live software is signing in. If you sign in with the Adobe ID that has the subscription, the trial becomes live. First check your account on Adobe.com to make sure that the subscription is live.

  • I' am having trouble installing a CD for school. Message reads "_ISDEL.EXE can not be extracted with this program"...how can i install .exe files??

    how can i open/install .exe files? i' am having trouble installing this CD for school

    Run Windows or find a Mac version of the software or buy a Windows computer.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • ITunes moved to a new hard drive, now acting like a newly installed program

    I just moved my ITunes to an external hard drive and followed all the directions to do so (did a google search and it lead me to this site where I followed the instructions outlined). Now ITunes won't work, it won't access any music whatsoever. In fact when I open ITunes it's appearance is that of the freshly installed program and no songs at all come up under music
    I decided I had to have the space because I only have an 80 GB drive (C) and my music files occupy 52 GB of that (ITunes accounts for 2/3 of that 52GB total for some strange reason)
    The new hard drive (F) is an HP Simple Save and that program backed up all my C drive information (including ITunes).
    Then I followed the instructions I found on this site. I went in, identified the new folder, consolidated the files and nothing. When I restarted ITunes I got the screen above
    So I tried putting ITunes back on the C drive and reset ITunes using the reset button under "Edit, Preferences, Advanced" and that still doesn't work. Not to mention I now have ITunes buried under a mountain of sub folders
    I am at my wits end with ITunes. My first IPod was a gift (my seond I had to buy after washing my first)  but ITunes has been nothing but trouble the whole time and now this!!!!!!!
    Can someone please help me????????????? I like my IPod, I on't want to have to get rid of it and buy an MP3 player that works with Windows

    My Library files are still on the C drive as the instructions said to leave them there
    While it is implied that I can move ITunes music files off my C drive to make more space
    Quote: "If your hard drive is nearly full after loading all your music and other media into iTunes, or if you just want to move all those music and media files to another hard drive on your system, here's a way to make the move while retaining all your playlists, ratings, and play history."
    In fact I now see that ITunes Help seems to suggest something different. I got here by pressing the question mark while in the pop up box for "Edit, Preferences, Advanced"
    Quote:
    "By default, songs and other files you import into iTunes are placed here:
    My Documents/My Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
    Hide
    To change the default location of imported files:
    Choose Edit > Preferences, and click Advanced.
    Click Change and select a new location for your files.
    From now on, new songs and other items you import are stored in the new location. Songs you’ve already imported stay in their current location. (emphasis mine)
    To restore the iTunes Media folder as the default storage location, click Reset (in the Advanced pane of iTunes preferences)."

  • Hello i am having trouble installing itunes 10.5 on my laptop i have windows vista. it says error 7 windows error 998. i now have no itunes. i have tried to uninstall itunes but it still wont work and keep coming up with that message. please help!

    hello
    i am having major trouble installing itunes. i had itunes working fine and i went to update it as it told me there was an update which i thought i did. i went on my laptop the next day and it said "itunes was not installed correctly error 7 windows error 998"
    i read a few articles on here but i am having no joy. i uninstalled itunes and reinstalled and that did not work. i also unistalled some other apple things cant remember the names sorry!
    i am not a whiz on a computer so really need some help please!!

    Installing, and uninstalling, applications never touches or removes the data.
    Clean out and uninstall all the apple programs and software thru Programs and manually.
    Might want to use Revo and CCleaner
    I always use manual standalone installers (and keep a couple backup versions)
    itunes 10.5 may affect iTunes media playlists, not sure, depends on what you have.
    A search of these forums will show some threads.
    I'd clean up vista, you need SP2 or later, and specific error message?
    I wonder as you arenot the first with a dell if maybe the OS or included software.
    Security programs like Norton and older versions of Kaspersky have been implicated.
    Also settings in IE that affect pop-ups and plug-ins.

  • Control pannel not showing some installed programs

    my os is win 7 and my control pannel is only showing google chrome and microsoft . net framework 4 client and ms office enterprise.but i have installed many programs such as mozila,adobe reader,avast antivirus and so many others but they are not showing

    use..pls suggest a solution

    Hi,
    When you launch Control Panel\Programs and Features, aren't you able to find the installed programs there?
    All programs icons stored under control panel\Programs and Feature are related with registry keys
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
    and
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall  (64 bit system)
    If these keys are corrupted or you don't have enough permissions on these keys, then the program icons will not be displayed under Programs and Features.

  • Having trouble installing Photoshop  Elements 13. [was: I wonder if somehow I might have went to Creative cloud because something crossed my screen, but I am not used to doing this so]

    I could really use Customer Service help. I received Photoshop Elements as a gift for Christmas...I waiting until i got a new laptop so that I could use that as i was having trouble with older computer. However, I am having trouble installing the software...I swear the dvd added the programs, and I saw them in files explorer i think, but then I cannot find or I was not even able to add the serial number to my knowledge, because it was blank...no keystrokes were shown...and i don't see the program anywhere...Could I have down something wrong and it is somewhere in the cloud?

    Thank you. That's what I first thought that I didn't need to do anything
    but install from the dvd drive. However after the agreement, it asks me to
    sign in at adobe. (Sorry, I'm a little tired of looking at this right
    now)...I'll try again tomorrow.
    There is no one that I see how to start using the program as I must sign
    in. However, I have never been able to get the number to your firm. Or get
    the correct number... I think I clicked on a learning tutorial or browsed
    Adobe's website to learn more, but got caught up in all the details.
    I never uninstalled virus protection to run it because I thought that it
    would ask. I'll try again tomorrow I am frustrated. Thank you for your
    patience. I appreciate it totally. It's really sad cause I really wanted to
    create. I have wanted this for a very long time and I can't believe how
    difficult this has been. It would be really nice to know what is really
    wrong. I must not be seeing something or I've done something.

    Yes, your fonts are locked. This is a known issue with different older versions of Adobe products if they are mixed. You need to take ownership and set their permissions to full access. There is some article on it in the knowledge base, but you might just as well do a web search on a more generic level about such procedures. An abbreviated summary of how to is contained in this article on my page (Security section).

  • Trouble installing older version of Photoshop Elements on Windows 8.1

    I'm having trouble installing an old version of Photoshop Elements (I have no need to upgrade) on Windows 8.1 - it keeps saying I need Internet Explorer 4.0 or above, though I have IE 11. I've tried the regedit fix mentioned here: Elements needs version 4 or newer of Internet Explorer to install? but it doesn't seem to be working - the default was already C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE, and the Path was C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer; - I changed it to C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer: but that made no difference. I can't uninstall IE 11 from Windows 8.1, or install an older version.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

    I used an IEXPLORE.EXE from internet explorer 7 and set the registry path to that.
    Then provided your hard drive doesn't have more than 1 TB of free space, photoshop elements 1 should install and run on windows 8.1
    Don't forget to set the registry paths back to what they were originally.

  • Good day all, I am having trouble installing the latest version of Itunes on my desktop. I receive a message that sttates the older version not be removed and then the installation process is aborted. I am running windows

    Good day all, I am having trouble installing te latest version of Itunes on my computer.
    When it is installing I get a message that states "the older version of Itunes can not be removed."
    Then the installations process is aborted.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
