Trying to open PDF getting error message " there is a problem with Acrabat /Reader. Please exit Adob
I have windows XP, when I am trying open PDF getting a error message " there is a problem with Acrabot /Reader. Please exit Adobe Acrabat/Reader Please try again' It was working earlier today HELP
If all else fails, you can try one of 2 things (I will assume you are talking about Reader - though this is not the Reader forum). Use ctrl-alt-del to go to the task list. Kill AcroRd32.exe. Then try again. If that does not work, a reboot will probably solve the problem.

Hello tadom,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines the exact error message you described, and a potential resolution:

I am trying to install the latest version of itunes and when the install begins I get the message "There is a problem with this Windows installer package. A program required for this install could not be opened. contact your support personnel or product vendor". I ran a troubleshooting diagnostic on my computer and nothing flagged as a problem. I uninstalled iTunes and tried again and now I don't have any way to sync my ipod touch. Please help with any suggestions!!!
Just in case, let's try a standalone AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi install.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi to do a standalone ASU install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If not, what error message do you get? (Precise text, please.) -

I'm trying to install iTunes 10.3 on my PC (windows vista) and I keep getting this message, "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

Hi Rick,
by "repair" I mean I went to the control panel, option - programs and features, and in the list of all my installed programs I selected "Apple Software Update". On top of the screen you find the options Uinstall, Change and Repair. I clicked the repair button and that did the trick. After the repair I could uninstall the program. I also uninstalled iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support en Bonjour, thus all Apple programs. Then I installed iTunes 10.5 again and everything went fine.
Success,

Repair your Apple software update.
Go to START > ALL PROGRAMS > Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install
If you don't find ASU, go to Control Panel:
START > CONTROL PANEL/ > Add n Remove Programs, highlight ASU and click CHANGE then REPAIR -
How do you fix error message "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. (6:6)
How does one fix error message "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader.
If it is running, please exit and try again. (6:6)http://www.essexinfo.net/queens-road-residents-association/assets/documents/village-voices is one example but a whole lot of the material which has been uploaded as pdf files over the last four years is now unviewable - if you click on the link you just get a black page. The main site url is http://www.essexinfo.net and our site is the Queens Road Residents Association. I have just gone through every link on the site and a number of links when clicked on will not bring up the material. I tried going into Adobe 10 on my computer and disenabling protected mode as was suggested on your forum and at first when I went back into the essex info site it seemed to have worked when I clicked on a link that had only produced a black page. However when I went back to test all the other links I found that the problem was still re-occuring. This is really weird as the site and my connections to it which I sometimes make by directly accessing the site and sometime via a link from our QRRA blog have always worked perfectly with no problems up to now. I downloaded adobe 10.1 on 8 March 2011.
I contacted essexinfo separately but they said everything seemed to be OK at their end working from within the system.
If you can help I would appreciate it.

Whenever I try to update iTunes to 10.5 I get the message 'There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.'
I then uninstalled iTunes to try and reinstall it but I still get the same message for both 10.5 and previous versions, please help!My situation:
- get error when updating iTunes from 1041 to 1050 or above: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."
My system: XP SP3 with all latest updates.
Found out that the 1051 update fixes a major intrusion possibility during the update process, so I want to get iTunes upgraded to 1051.
Did more research and the following worked (not known if all steps outlined were necessary) (I do not guarantee success nor any more issues as a result):
- ran: MicrosoftFixit.ProgramInstallUninstall.exe (did JUST the patch option).
- ran: Windows Installation Removal Tool.exe (uninstalled JUST the iTunes program installer folder) (this does not remove the actual program).
- removed all apple software update registry entries.
- removed: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple\Installer Cache\(JUST the software updatefolders) (hidden folder).
- removed: C:\Documents and Settings\current user\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\(JUST the software update folders) (hidden folder).
- DID NOT need to restart
- downloaded latest iTunes update (1051)
- opened using WinRAR
- extracted all files
- ran JUST the apple software update MSI
- it succeeded
- ran JUST the iTunes MSI
- it succeeded
- normally I then uninstall the apple software update program, but DID NOT this time
- DID NOT need to restart
Hope it works for you. -
iTunes won't upgrade to10.5. I'm on 10.1.17.
When installing 10.5 it terminates with an error message "There is a problem with the Windows installer package. Contact the package vendor".
It does not provide an error code or details/description to further troubleshoot. As a result I can't upgrade my Apple devices to leverage the cloud.
Any smarts out there who could help?
Using PC Win-7 w/IE 7 (should that matter)
Thanks muchI know there's a million threads like this, but I thought I'd record my experience. I, too, was having the original poster's error when I tried to update iTunes on Windows XP. I think I was stuck on 10.
I solved it by un-installing iTunes and every other Apple app. I discovered that Apple Software Update would not un-install as its MSI file could not be found. I used the "Windows Install Cleanup" tool from Microsoft to remove Apple Software Update from the list of installed programs. Google "kb290301" for a Microsoft page that includes a download link for it. After that, I was able to install a fresh copy of iTunes 10.5.2.
I'm not sure why this app's folder and MSI were missing from my computer. I had once used Laplink PC Mover to move everything from my old computer to this one, and perhaps it missed a bit. -
