  • Installer keeps waiting for other installations to complete my downloads.  is this normal?

    I downloaded a microsoft remote desktop application and tried to download my office mac and the installer keeps saying waiting for other installations to complete.  So i thought i needed a restart and the installer won't shut down either.  is this normal?

    Immediate problem solved. After force quitting the Software Update app., iPhoto 9.2 appears to have been successfully installed and functional.  Unable to say if future S/W updates will encounter any problems. Thanks for all consideration. Item closed.

    If your intention is to use the trial again it will not reset if you reinstall.  It will remain in its ran out state.

  • Trying to download InDesign CC and getting an error message-

    Trying to download InDesign CC and getting an error message… "Unable to launch Adobe InDesign as you do not have sufficient permissions to access the preferences folders. Ensure that you have appropriate permissions and then restart Adobe InDesign". All other apps that I've downloaded are working properly, but InDesign won't open.
    Here's the screen shot of the error box...

    Hi McMilla,
    as per the screen shot it looks like we dont have enough permissions on your Preference folder . I would suggest the following steps and let us know if these worked or not for you  .
    Go to //Library/Preferences/
            ~/library/Preferences
             /library/application support/Adobe
            ~/Library/application support/Adobe
    and give full permissions to Preferences folder and the Adobe folder.
    Cheers,

  • HT1349 What to when trying to download an app and get message "could not sign in, An unknown error has occurred"

    What do you do when trying to download an app from App Store and get message: "could not sign in, an unknown error has occurred."

    Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.

  • Trying to download itunes update and getting an error for 10.3.1

    Open iTunes and they said there was an update.  10.3.1  I tried to download it, but once it starts installing, I get an error message stating "errors occured while installing the updates.  if the problem persistes, go to tools and download manually."  So I did that, so it tries to install and now i'm getting that an error has occured with quicktime and iTunes needs quicktime.  I have quicktime on my computer already, should I reinstall it?  I don't know how to fix this.....

    I have a similar problem. the error number is 2330.
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • First time downloading an app and getting "waiting" message

    I am very new to using Mac, but tried to download an app from the app store for the first time yesterday - Keynote - onto my MacBook Pro. I don't know the system details - it is about 11 months old if that helps?
    The first time i tried, it said 'installing' for a long time, until I accidentally deleted it from the dock at the bottom of the desktop when trying to look for details. I went back to the app store and tried to install it again, and it has now said "waiting" for the past 24 hours, and the bar under the icon hasn't moved.
    I am connected to decent speed internet at a University, so don't think that is likely to be the problem.
    Would appreciate any help - and if possible, for that help to be in very simple language (not Mac-speak), as I am still a very basic Mac user! Thanks!

    Hi..
    I don't know the system details - it is about 11 months old if that helps?
    Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac the click More Info then select Overview from the menu. Since your Mac is so new it's probably running v10.7 Lion.

    Not just download sppeeds that can be a problem. See if this is a proxy issue...
    Click the Apple menu icon again, then from the drop down menu click System Preferences then click Network > Advanced > Proxies.
    If any of the boxes on the left are selected, then it may be the school's network admin has required that you use a proxy (filter) for blocking certain ares on on the internet such as the Mac App or iTunes Stores.
    If none of the boxes on the left were selected, try re downloading the app. You will not be charged again.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Also, if you have anti virus software installed, you need to disable that in order to download apps from the App Store.

  • Patched Deployments issue: "waiting for another installation to complete"

    I have some percent of computers which runs into above state in monthly patch deployments. I could minimal information from execmgmr, udpatesdeployment.log,
    CliSpy and Client Center etc tools but that doesn’t offer much help to nail down the issue completely. Have any of you dealt to resolve such issue successfully ? Is there any efficient way to handle this ?
    It seems I have
    DeploymentA, waiting for the completion of DeploymentB, which in turn waiting for the completion of
    DeploymentC. Is there any better approach I could take to nail down and resolve the issue. One of my finding is,  KB articles installs (SCCM R3, SCCM Asset Intelligence) causes these issue as they restart (upgrade sort of execution) the
    agent during the execution, I need to confirm these
    Vasu

    Hi Vasu,
    This issue can be caused by a deployment was previously deployed and was now deleted. This was because the clients finished installation
    and wanted to notify the Server that it is done, but since the deployment was deleted, it couldn’t Notify its progress to the site server and the CCM_DeploymentTaskEx1 got stuck.
    Please use the following scripts to delete the instance to test this issue.
    strService = "CcmExec"
    strComputer = "."
    Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\CCM\SoftwareUpdates\DeploymentAgent")
    Set colWMISettings = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from CCM_DeploymentTaskEx1")
    For Each objWMISetting in colWMISettings
    objWMISetting.AssignmentId = ""
    objWMISetting.JobId = "{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}"
    objWMISetting.Put_
    Next
    'Stop service
    Set objWMI = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
    Set objService = objWMI.Get("Win32_Service.Name='" & strService & "'")
    objService.StopService()
    WScript.Sleep 10000 ' Pause to allow service to stop
    'Start service
    Set objService = objWMI.Get("Win32_Service.Name='" & strService & "'")
    objService.StartService()
    WScript.Sleep 10000 ' Pause to allow service to start

  • I'm trying to download 4.0 and get a 10661 message when I try to launch the app.

    I had 3.6.16 working perfectly fine. I downloaded 4.0 from your prompt when I opened 3.6. Once downloaded the graphic of the fox that I'm supposed to drag into my applications folder has a white circle w/cross on it and when I put it in my applications folder anyway I get the 10661 error message that it can't open?
    Since I overwrote my 3.6.16 version now I don't have firefox at all!
