Trying to download QuickTime, says another instalation is in progress

I first tried downloading i-tunes, but it said that I needed to have the latest version of quicktime, so i tried downloading that. When I did it said another instalation is in progress. Is there a way to clear it all and start over?

Hi Dana,
Right click of your Taskbar at the bottom of the screen, Launch Task Manager, Check the option to "Show processes from all users" and check another instance of Setup.exe or Installer or msiexec.exe already running on the machine. If yes, then End that process and then try to install PSE again.
Sometimes, this error is also seen when windows is installing the updates silently without we knowing about it, or if there is some updates getting installed for some other application installed on your machine?
You may even try to restart the machine and then give it a try?
Keep us informed,
Regards,
Ankush

    It is probably because you are not properly closing Firefox. Restarting your system would make sure that Firefox had terminated, but you do not have to do that.
    To properly close Firefox on Windows systems, use
    :File > Exit or "Firefox:" button > Exit
    When you get the message "Firefox is already running" it is too late, and you must force termination of Firefox through the Windows Task Manager before restarting Firefox. Windows 7 has a keyboard shortcut to save you a step "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then on "Processes" tab, select "firefox.exe" and use the "End Process" button. More thorough would be to right-click on the "firefox.exec" and choose "End Process Tree".
    You would find firefox.exe in a Mozilla folder in your program files, but y0u would not want to delete it there, you would need to use the Control Panel which you have already identified and do it from there -- but generally you would not need to do that, and there is nothing in what you have posted to indicate that you should. But if you did do that, then don't let the install start Firefox for you as you would want to use you existing desktop icon or method of starting Firefox, and should decline having Firefox install start Firefox for you. When the install starts then invoke Firefox in your normal manner. This should eliminate problems of creating a new profile rather than using your old profile.

    I have an iPhone4s. When I install apps, I have to give my Apple password first.  That’s okay. The last few apps I tried to download have opened another security window before they will install.  The window says, “Security info Required.  To help insure the security of your Apple ID we require additional information”  When I select okay, the Apple ID Password window opens and asks for my Apple password a second time. 
    It doesn't happen with every app and I’m concerned that these apps may be trying to collent my password.  Is Apple really doing a double check on my password?

    Trying to download itunes onto PC installed with windows vista. Download keeps getting to 99% with 1 second remaining and then freezes / does nothing? Any help appreciated.

    I solved the problem! The updates orignally were downloaded to the C: drive of the server. I've since moved them to the E: drive and for some reason the Content folder in IIS didn't change the file path to the new WSUScontent folder.
    The root cause for this was failing to use the UTILITY designed for this very purpose.
    I edited the virtual directory settings in IIS and was able to put the correct path in.
    You still need to use the UTILITY.. to fix all the other stuff you're still missing.
    In the %ProgramFiles%\Update Services\Tools folder...
    WSUSUTIL MOVECONTENT E:\WSUS E:\WSUS\MoveContent.LOG -SKIPCOPY
    This problem was caused by moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.
    No. This problem was caused by IMPROPERLY moving the WSUS updates to a different local drive.

  • Computer crashed. Re installed os x tiger, when trying to download it says I already have the programs in my computer, Can I recover my old things?

    My computer had crashed. I tried most everything and had to resort to re installing my os x tiger discs. When my computer crashed, I was running snow leopard. I do not have the disc for it. Anyhow, I am now trying to download things and it is saying I already have them in my system which is leading me to believe that all of my stuff is still on the computer. So my question is, if it is.. how do I retrieve it? And is there a way for me to get my snow leopard back without having the disc? I am trying to avoid going to an apple store because I cannot afford it. I really hope someone has some answers on this for me. Thank you for your time!

  • Problem Installing PSE 8.0 - says Another Installation is in progress

    I just purchased a brand new CD version of Photoshop Elements 8.0 for Windows. When I run the installation process, I get past the "enter Serial # screen, and I start the Installation and it comes up with an error message saying "Error 1500.  Another Installation is in progress.  You must complete that installation before continuing this one". I don't have another installation in progress, any idea what I need to do? This is the 2nd one today, the first one was a Mac version that I had to return to the store for a Windows version, but it never started installing.  Please help!

  • HT1338 trying to download numbers. says i need an update. latest updates installed

    as the title says I cannot download numbers. Says i need to update but there are no updates available. Running 10.7.5......please help

    You need to either download Mavericks from the Mac App Store first or buy an iWork 09 DVD from a source such as Amazon or eBay. If you upgrade the computer's OS, back it up first.

  • HP Officejet 8500 Pro A909n-Installed Win 8.1- tried HP Sol Ctr&says "device install not complete"

    I was shocked when I was trying to do my reports yesterday, after upgrading to Win 8.1 and finding the driver for my OJ 8500 WILL NOT WORK in printing off ADOBE which lead to me trying to open the HP Solution Center and it just pops up a box that says HP Solution Center cannot run because device install NOT COMPLETE. I am losing time and money trying to figure out what I THOUGHT WAS SURE to be ADDRESSED BY HP. I am upgrading the entire office in another state....is this going to be an ongoing issue? Is there a better printer solution which keeps up with the operating systems? Please help.

    Hi Mtnman,
    I understand you're having issues with the Solution Center program after upgrading to Windows 8.1. I'm sorry to hear you're having issues but I will do my best to help.
    I'd like you to uninstall your HP printer software (if you have an HP computer, make sure you are only removing HP printer software from the computer) and once it's been completely removed we will want to attempt to reinstall. To reinstall the software I'd like you to download and run the HP Printer Install Wizard to get the software downloaded and reinstalled.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!
