What is the Installer process?

I've never seen it before but today it keeps popping up in my activity monitor. It's using 85-90% of my CPU.

11-inch MBA mid 2011 - 2GB RAM - 64 GB HD - 10.9.2
So my son noticed this as well on his Macbook Air. He was getting messages about running out of disk space from time to time. This time we noticed that his VM was about 11 GBs and that there was a process called Installed that was about 800 MB.... when we killed  process the VM went down to about 3 GBs... which seems to be the normal setting... he thought it might have been something from the app store and trying to update iMovie but when we went ahead and did the install we got a different process called install_d or something so it does not seem to be related. Seems to happen randomnly. Clues on the internet have pointed to possibly FireFox or Genieo as possible contributor but he does not have Genieo on his computer. I suggested he try out Chrome or Safari so we will see if that helps...
What apps are you all using?

  • What is the Installer process supposed to mean?

    This process named "Installer" keep making me angry and frustrated.
    This process will appear in Activity Monitor after using BitTorrent application and once appeared it's does consuming RAM like ****.
    The process goes from a few MB to GB and reached the maximum which made my mac nearly unusable.
    So I have to force quit couple times and everything will back to normal.
    But the point is This process will keep appearing even I'm already terminated the process.
    This problem never appeared to me before on Mavericks and Mountain Lion and lower.
    Please see attached.
    Force quit the process doesn't effect anything to bittorrent or any application or the osx.
    I want to know why and how to stop it.

    Here it is.

    I'm guessing that you have checked and complied with the system requirements?
    System Requirements
    Microsoft Windows 7 or 8
    Microsoft Outlook 2007 or later or an up-to-date browser (for Mail, Contacts, Calendars)
    Internet Explorer 9 or later, Firefox 22 or later, or Google Chrome 28 or later (for Bookmarks)
    Broadband Internet access
    Note: If you are upgrading from iCloud Control Panel 1.1 or earlier, you will need to sign out of iCloud Control Panel and uninstall it before downloading iCloud Control Panel 3.1

    "The Older Version Update cannot be removed. Contact your technical support".
    Doublechecking before proceeding. Is it saying the older version of Apple Software Update cannot be removed, or some other program? (Several different program names can be mentioned in this context.)

    Following these suggestions, I startup from the Install Disk holding down C. The installation process proceeds as far as "Checking disks..." (part of Select Destination) but hangs up there: the barbershop pole just spins and spins... What do I do next? This is on an old iBook BTW, 2001 G3, OS X, 10.1.2.

    Likely, but can you try to erase it/format it?
       3. Click the Erase tab.
       4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
       5. Select your Mac OS X volume.

  • When i try to install i tunes it goes so far down the installation process then i get a message ' could not access network location %APPDATA%\.  Can any one help.

    When i try to install i tunes, it goes so far down the installation process and then comes up with a message ' could not access network location %APPDATA%\.  I then retry and it comes up with the same message.
    It also tells me i tunes needs 'Quick Time' to support the software.  I have downloaded Quicktime from i tunes seperately and gone through the whole process again, only to get the same message.
    Can anyone please help?

    These kind of messages can often be cleared by using the Microsoft Installer cleanup Utility.
    Here is a method for cleanup of your old iTunes installation and reinstall.
    == uninstall with cleanup ==
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Save the files on your PC.
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program. The installer doesn't give any message to confirm the installation.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    (To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install)
    Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista or Win 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    *If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
    When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.

  • An error occurred during the installation process: error occurred while installing additional adobe

    I get this message: An error occurred during the installation process: error occurred while installing additional adobe packages. when trying to install CS2 InDesign UPGRADE from id 2 on new IMAC 2.4 GHz 4 GB. 

Any one else with same issue?

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

  • When trying to install an Adobe extention, during the installation process I get a message that says "This extention cannot cannot be installed-----requires version 13.0 or greater."  I am installing from within CC

    When trying to install an Adobe extention, during the installation process I get this message-----"This extention cannot be installed----requires version 13.0 or greater."  I am installing through Photoshop CC------appreciate any help.

    Hi Gary.  Extensions have to be written for the specific Photoshop versions they are designed to run on.and definitely don't all run on every version of Photoshop.  You'd think that you'd be OK with that message, but it might be that it works fine on CS6 (13) but not on CC (14).
    But it could be an error.
    What is the extension you are trying to install?  Is Photoshop, and Extension Manager fully up to date?  If you are sure that the extension runs on CC, I'd try un installing, and reinstalling the Extension Manager.  I have had to exactly that a while back.

  • Why do I have to repeat the installation process every time I turn on my PC?

    Why do I have to repeat the installation process every time I turn on my PC?

    Why do I have to repeat the installation process every time I turn on my PC?
    Because you never run the install of whatever program you are referring to with sufficient user privileges and it thus never "sticks". Run as admin, turn of security tools, let the install finish properly. If you need more guidance, provide system info and tell us what program you actualyl mean.

  • CS4 Design Premium Student Edition will not even begin the installation process

    Help!
    I have bought CS4 Design Premium Student Edition, I received the serial number okay, tried the installation process but stupidly hadn't quit a programme fisrt. I tried the process again but the SetUp window says 'Loading SetUp' and I get an 'Installer Alert' window pop up with nothing in it. I can't quit the Installer and have to Force Quit.
    I've tried the CS4 Clean Script and it finds nothing to remove. Having spoken to Tech Support I tried CS3 Clean Script and it removed certain items, but the CS4 disc still won't work.
    I have Photoshop 7 installed, would that be interfering?
    What else can I remove before re-trying the installation of CS4?

    I have tried shutting down and restarting and just a simple restart.
    The guy from tech support didn't tell me to do that when I was trying the clean script stuff the other day but I've tried it sonce and there's still no joy.
    Does it sound like I've got something preventing the installation process from starting if I get a blank 'Installer Alert' window appear?
    Calling Adobe Support is such a pain. No answer for hours....

  • Windows cannot start the installation process

    I have windows server 2012 datacenter with hyper-v role that I tried to upgrade to R2 RTM.
    All went fine until the reboot and the error "windows cannot start the installation process"
    I can start windows server 2012
    I must say that I used a ISO file using DRAC for the install.
    Is there a log to check for errors?

    Hi,
    Just a thought, check to see what your BIOS settings are on your computer.
    This problem is usually related some potential problem in the disk or BIOS or faulty hardware. The BIOS sometimes limits the read/write scope of boot sectors, to avoid virus attack. 
    Review the BIOS setting, if there’s any Anti-Virus settings, just disable it, and then start the install again.
