Trying to install, and after removing trial versions, I get a note that says"only a single instance of this application can run".

Help - how do I get past this?

IF you have a trial of Acrobat Pro and you buy it, DON'T uninstall the trial. Just license the trial and go.
if it's too late... How did you uninstatll, and when do you get the message?

  • Can't Install Flash Player, What does "Only a single instance of this application can run" mean?

    I try to follow the steps 1-3, as it shows. After it downloads, after step 2, a dialog box pops up saying “Open Executable File? Then it says it may contain viruses or malicious code and to be careful when opening file.  So I click OK, then step 3 occurs, file name lists as: install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih(2).exe.  So then I hit “Run”.  Then another dialog box pops up titling “UI_FlashPlayerInstaller”, and it says “Only a single instance of this application can run”, “OK”. I’ve checked to see if there is another version installed, but I don’t see any.  I am operating a Windows 32 Bit, FireFox,

    Download the full installer from this FAQ http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550
    Save it to disk, then close all browser windows and run the downloaded installer.

  • Why I can't install adobe keep getting: "only a single instance of this application can run"?

    Hello, Can someone help me with Adobe Flash Player installation ?
    I have tried too many things to install it but keep getting this message " only a single  instance of this application can run. 
    I can't see any Adobe applications, I've tried deleting all files adobe and still nothing.
    I have opened the task manager and try to end the processes related to Adobe manually by selecting 'End Process' and then try to install it, but nothing happened.
    I've tried 'clean boot' but neither worked.I downloaded the 'Adobe unistaller' from the official page and the 'latest version of flash player' but it doesn't work!.
    I've also went on the Adobe website and it said this error message was due to the flash application but I deleted all of those files to and still nothing.
    I've got firefox and windows 7.

    If you haven't done so already, reboot your computer, then re-run the installer you downloaded.

  • "Only a single instance of this application can run" error when installing Flash

    I deleted Flash Player when trying to solve a Shockwave Flash Google Chrome issue, and after being unable to solve it I switched to Firefox. I now can't get the installer to open. I double-click on it, it asks me if I want to run it. I click Yes, then the window closes and the installer doesn't open. When I try running the installer again, I get the error message "Only a single instance of this application can run". I have tried everything. I closed Firefox, restarted my computer, and ran the Flash Player uninstaller. I am running Windows 8.1 64-bit with Mozilla Firefox and I am trying to run the latest version of Flash Players as of October 26 2014. Please help!

    The download link has moved since then: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player.exe

    Moving this discussion to the Creative Cloud Download & Install forum.
    Anebz I would recommend fixing the connection error preventing the applications from contacting our activation server.  You can find details on how to resolve the connection error at Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CC, CS6, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html.

    I'm trying to install the 30-day trial version of Photoshop Elements 13 on my Mac.   I keep getting the following msg:
    OS requirement not met:
    -Current OS : Mac 10.7.5 64 bit
    - Max OS 10.8.0 or above required
    I'm running on OS X 10.7.5, so will I be unable to run Photoshop Elements 13?

    That is correct Mfrazier65.  Photoshop Elements 13 requires Mac OS 10.8 or later.  You can find a list of the system requirements at System requirements | Adobe Photoshop Elements.

    Hi Tamekia,
    I am sorry to hear nothing has worked yet. I have looked up some additional information and possible solutions. Follow the steps in this document to perform a level-three uninstall, register the Windows Installer Service, and then reinstall the HP software. An uninstall and reinstall of the software deletes and overwrites any of the files that might cause the error and resets the Windows Installer. HP recommends that you download the latest software from the HP Web site to remove any files that might be causing this error.
    Level-three uninstall, and register the Windows Installer Service
    Note: The title of this document is not specific to the issue you are experiencing or the operating system you have, but the 3 steps and instructions are what I suggest we do to resolve the issue you are experiencing.
    Hope this helps.

    Hey gwscrt,
    Since iTunes directed to you to restore your iPod, I'd check out the following article that goes over the steps to do so:
    Restoring iPod to factory settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1339
    I would read the document in full, but here are the applicable steps for you:
    How to restore iPod
    Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
    Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
    After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
    Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
    Click Restore.
    If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
    Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
    Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
    During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
    Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
    Have a good one,
    David

  • Unable to install Flash Player as "only a single version of this application can run"

    I was having problems with Flash Player earlier today and decided to uninstall it (from Windows 7) and reinstall from scratch.  I uninstalled it and tried reinstalling it but now I get the following message: Unable to install Flash Player as "only a single version of this application can run" I tried uninstalling   I checked to see if there was still a programme to install but there is not. I checked my files in Windows and there are several files called Install_Flashplayer _16x32 .............. files. I presume they were created each time I attempted to install Flash Player.  I thought of deleting the numerous Install FlashPlayer files but decided to seek help before taking this step.
    Browser: Firefox 35.0.1
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    64bit OS

    I have somehow managed to install Flash Player and it works. I deleted all the install files except one which did not want to be deleted, Then I started to install Flash Player until I got the message about conflicting applications. I then used Ctrl+Alt+Delete to open Task Manager, then closed all tasks except the Flash Player one. Flash Player finished installing. I then opened a TV Player in Firefox and was able to play a programme that required a Flash Player.
    Why do I have to use Task Manager to close applications. I can't remember the last time I used it ut think it was about a year ago when my computer would not shut down.

    I am unable to access my LR5.7 Catalog of my recent holiday. I am running Windows 7 (64Bit) and recently installed and then uninstalled DxO Optics Pro. The error message says it "cannot be opened because another application already has it opened.Quit the other copy of Lightroom before trying to launch"  The problem is, that I can only see one copy of LR5 open and cannot locate the ".lrcat.lock" file for the specific catalog I want to open. I have tried re-booting my computer, but this did not work.

    Thanks Geoff. I was finally able to locate the ".lrcat.lock" file relevant to the catalog I want to open. Once I deleted it, LR5 was able to access my images. Problem solved. THANK YOU

    When I try to download applications such as Internet Explorer, Yugma, and iTunes in Firefox, I just get a window that says "save" or "cancel", but never one that says "run" so I don't think it's actually installing anything. It shows up in a "download" window, then the icon shows up on my desktop. When I click on it to launch it, it says "open with" and I get the same "save/cancel" window. It's a continuous circle. What am I doing wrong??
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I don't know. I never downloaded apps through Firefox until all of a sudden Internet Explorer didn't work. ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

    What application are you choosing to open the files with?
    Because of how integrated it is with windows IE should work. If it's not working, something more widespread could be wrong with your computer that would also prevent other browsers from working properly. Of course we'd love you to stick with Firefox, but you should get help with IE, too.
