Upgrading without administrator privelege

I usually don't have upgrade privelege on my work Windows computer. Some applications don't care - and some applications work when I copy the upgrade from another Windows computer to the computer which had the previous version installed.
iTunes was working on my work computer, but I couldn't upgrade it, so I copied the C:\program files\iTunes and C:\program files\Quicktime directories from my home windows machine.
Now I get an abort followed by the green screen of death when I try running iTunes. And I also can't plug in my iPod (because it runs iTunes which aborts).
Did I miss something to copy?
Can I turn off automatic iTunes loading without running iTunes?
Why do iTunes upgrades require administrator privelege?

Hi Howard
This forum is for issues specific to Apple's Safari Browser and related internet issues. Best place to post your question is the iTunes for Windows forum.
Good Luck

Hi,
I have two suggestions:
First one: add your account to admin group temporarilly, then disable the option. after that, remove it from admin group again.
Second one, in your standard use account, when you click "disable " button, if it would prompt a dialog and let you use admin account to finish this operation? If so, type your admin user account name and password, after that, you can disable it.

I think not. You will need to order a disc from Apple quoting your serial number, as many of these discs are machine specific. So unless you can get your drive working I think you will have to take a trip to an Apple store.
Indeed, you have an old computer that may not be worth the cost of repair ... but it is still worth seeking Apple advice and a visual inspection. It just might be something not too drastic.

How do I get administrative priveleges to install optional plug-ins for cs5

how do I get administrative priveleges to install optional plug-ins for cs5 and or how to install these optional plugins thanks

To add to Mylenium's reply, here's how to do it on Windows and this is what microsoft website says:
Why do I have to be an administrator to install a program?
Only administrators can make changes that will affect everyone who uses the computer, such as installing software and hardware and changing security settings.
If the program you are trying to install or run says you must have administrator rights, but you are already an administrator on the computer, right-click the installation icon for the program, and then click Run as administrator. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
If the program installs but does not run, right-click the program icon, click Properties, click the Compatibility tab, select the Run this program as an administrator check box, and then try to run the program.

How to include an enhancement package with upgrade without Solution Manager

Hello,
I have been trying to do an upgrade from SAP R3 46C to ERP6 in my sandbox. I want to include Enhancment package 3 with the upgrade. I have tried using the Solution Manager to download the Enhancement package and it work fine except that it did not create the XML Stack configuration file that the upgrade is looking for. Therefore I downloaded the DVD for Enhancement package 3 and included that in the mounted CDs in the PREPARE portion of the upgrade and it does not recognize it.
Now for my question, is there a way to include the Enhancement package with the upgrade without using Solution Manager? If so, could someone please let me know where to find the information or share the procedure with me?
Thank you in advance,
Ron

The EPs are just like support packages (optional); if the upgrade is not letting you put it during upgrade then just do it once the upgrade is completed.

Deploying msi via group policy without administrative rights

We are having a problem with flash player not working without
Administrative right on the machine. We thought we could get around
this by using the flash_player_active_x.msi and installing through
group policy. The install during a computer reboot (if assigning to
a computer) or during a user sign on (if assigned to a user) seems
to work fine.
However, when you actually try to load a webpage with flash,
nothing. The component doesn't actually get installed into the
browser. As soon as you log on with a privilaged account, and
browse to a flash enabled page, the install finishes, the active x
control is loaded and now all users can see it.
However, I'd really prefer not to have to go around to each
computer and log on with the administrator account - kind of
defeats the purpose of group policy.
All computers are Win XP sp2 with IE 7. The active directory
server is a Win2k server.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I am having this issue also. Has anyone found a solution?
I found this reference on this website, but there is no

have installed Adobe Flash Player but still don't see any Flash
content. What is wrong?
quote:
Restricted User accounts are unable to display Flash Player
content
After successful installation under the Windows Administrator
account, Restricted User accounts are unable to display Flash
Player content. This issue has been reported on Microsoft Windows
XP Service Pack 2 systems and occurs sporadically. It may also
affect other versions of Windows, such as Windows 2000.
If you installed Flash Player 8.0.24.0 prior to April 6,
2006, then you must remove it using the Flash Player uninstaller
released on May 11, 2006. Remove Flash Player using the
instructions in How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player (TechNote

Installing the Java-Plugin without administrative rights

I would like to find a way to allow a user without administrative rights to install the Java-Plugin for using Java-Applets. As far as I understood, the plugin can be installed in a silent way withou registry modifiactions. Is this working for users without admin rights?
Furthermore I would like to have the web page containing the applet installing the plugin (if necessary) in a fully automatic way so the user does not need to deal with installing the plugin manually. This should work without admin rights as well.
Any ideas?

The whole "GetJava"-program is just crap for ordinary users if they get the JRE downloaded seamlessly and then the installation fails due to missing admin rights. This way Java would never succeed on the desktop.

CS5 upgrade without installing 3 previous versions?

So I am currently running CS3 upgraded from CS2 Upgraded from ps6.
Is there a way that I can purchase the C5 upgrade without installing the three previous versions?
I am purchasing two new computers to replace the older computers in my house.
I have cs3 running on three computers in my house (new are replacing older models.).
I am paying for one of my 3 sons to attend college. I have thought about a student version but understand that there are limitations.
Can anyone help?

The Educational version is a great way to go - it is functionally identical to the commercial version, usually without the extra fonts and such.

Install Failure! Can't Upgrade without Upgrading first!

I need to be running 10.3.9 to use my new Nano...
I ordered Tiger 1.4 but it only came on DVD (without special ordering the CD and waiting... I don't do waiting well...)
So, I ordered a new Lacie CD R/W and DVD [read only].
It reads the DVD, but when I click on the install icon, it ejects the DVD and tells me the media is not readable...although it just read it.
Seems I need to upgrade my Firmware for the DVD Reader...
I downloaded the Firmware upgrade from Lacie, but it says I have to be running at least system 10.2 in order to update the firmware!
So, I can't do the upgrade without the firmware and I can't load the firmware without the upgrade...
Any suggestions?? Do I just have to order the CD and wait??? Thanks

Well, the wait for a CD copy of the software seems to be "forever" as indicated by the .pdf order form. First you have to print out the order form and wait for your DVD to arrive. Then mail the order form by snail mail with payment and proof of purchase of the DVD. Then wait for Apple to return it to you...also by snail mail...AND the order form indicates that all orders for CD's must be placed by YESTERDAY. "Orders must be postmarked by December 20, 2006."
I have not tried to boot from the Firewire port. Sounds like [from you] that that would not work anyway. The USB two port DOES recognize the DVD and read it but will not boot from it...but it seems to indicate that the DVD should boot IF I can only get the Firmware upgrade to load.
I may just have to find someone locally who owns 10.2 and install it long enough to upgrade my drive so it will read the 10.4 install. Big problem is that I'm relatively new in the area and don't know many Mac Owners.
I guess I should have ordered an internal DVD reader. So many of the DVD readers will only operated with G4's and higher these days that I just ordered the first one I found that actually claimed to work on a G3.

Adobe reader 10.1 AutoUpdate without administrative privileges

Hi,
If I install Adobe Reader 10.1 for windows 7 manually, then standard user without administrative rights can use autoapdate. If I install it through Group Policy or SCCM, then standard users should enter admin's password. How can I install Adobe Reader automatically and that it doesn't demand administrator's password from standard users?

Well, Let me rephrase, so you want to push the Reader 10.1 via GPO and then afterwards you want the users machines get updated automatically. i.e. Post 10.1, you want the users to receive updates via (Help>Check for updates) silent update and not via GPO. Am I right?
If this is the case, am not sure if this is an supported scenario, because you are installing an AIP first and then the next updates are coming from an Non AIP installation. As far as I know, if we have deployed any patch via GPO then the next updates must be pushed via GPO only. Since, their underlying technology is AIP. We should not be mixing both the ways of installation.
I do not think, there's any solution available for your problem via GPO right now. Though I would like to see your Cust Wizard option once. But what I can suggest you to resolve the issue with SCCM (if possible)
