Why can't i launch a SmartReporter tryout?

have a macbook pro 13 inch mid-2012
so i d like to test the well-being of HDD by running SmartReporter as my hdd is making a series of clicky "needle scratching gently on the surface of a metal" sounds intermittently
therefore i thought i d test it once in a while, i know i could get it for 5$ but i wanna get a tryout first though after downloading, it wont launch, telling me that it os not authorised by apple store, but thats where i got it from

If you have a Mid 2012 model it is still well within the standard warranty period of one year. If your HDD is making funny sounds, noises, it is best to take it in to Apple for a check up.
In the system preferences there is an Option to allow installing software Only from the Mac App Store or from anywhere. Your system is more then likely set to install from Only the Mac App Store. You can change that to allow installations from anywhere and then that software should install without that error.

  • Why can't I launch my Creative Cloud Desktop App? (I get Error -1712)

    I have the Creative Cloud Desktop app downloaded and installed on my iMac (Early 2009/Mavericks OS). When I try to open it I get error -1712. Up until today I have been able to launch it. I cleared out my caches completely today so am wondering if that has something to do with it (cookies?). I can launch other Creative Cloud Apps such as InDesign Photoshop and Illustrator. I am having font sync issues with TypeKit and InDesign as well--typekit says my fonts are synced, InDesign says they are not. Help!

    You might try restarting your computer and then attempt downloading Creative Cloud again. In case you still face this issue please share the screenshot.
    Thanks,

  • Why can't I launch itunes by clicking icon on desktop or toolbar?

    I've downloaded the latest version, but the only way I can get itunes to launch is by plugging in my ipod. Any ideas?

    So iTunes starts and works normally when you plug in your iPod, but not when you double click on your desktop shortcut?
    Does anything happen when you double click on the icon? If you start the task manager (press ctrl and delete), does iTunes appear on the processes tab?
    The only thing I can suggest is that you try creating a new desktop shortcut and see if that works.
    Go to My computer C: drive
    Open Program Files\iTunes
    Right click on iTunes.exe and select Send To>>Desktop (create short cut)

  • Why can't simply launch iphoto then double click on a jpeg in a file folder

    Really...???  I am a new Mac guy trying to learn about iphoto...  Mind you, with photoshop I can click on a photo file anywhere on my Mac without creating a library...  What's the necessity for a freaking library...??? First thing iphoto asks me is to do is create a library...  Why the trouble, how do I get all my photos into this library...??? Is it even worth the trouble...??? Does iphoto have the value...???

    Try again to ask a rational question
    If you want a windows type file manager then iPhoto is not for you - it is a photo manager using a SQLite database and it does have a learning curve - it does require a library - it is not a photo viewer
    It is simple to learn - try starting with the tutroials
    Or use a different program - iphoto is totally optional
    Or ask rational questions and you can get help here

  • Why can i not launch steam on lion?

    It says that i need to check my network connection because steam needs to update, but i have full connection. I have tried nearly everything and reinstalled.
    Hope you can help me cause i've just bought FM12 in steam but can't download it because steam will not start.

    Exit Steam entirely and do the following:
    Open Library > Application support > Steam > config > double click config.vdf (open it using TextEdit) > change the value of "FirstRun" to "0" > Save the change and exit TextEdit.
    Restart your Mac and run steam again.
    Alternatively try the following in terminal...
    cd /
    cd Applications
    cd Steam.app
    cd Contents
    cd MacOS
    ./steam.sh
    I take no credit for this information as there is an entire Steam forum discussion with possible fixes if you require anymore information please visit http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1722477

  • Why can't I launch or uninstal iTunes?

    Yesterday I installed iTunes 10.5.1 and it launched and ran fine. However my computer was running slowly so I did a system restore and went to sleep. Today when I tried to launch iTunes I got the message: "iTunes cannot run because some of its files are missing. Please reinstall iTunes." When I went to reinstall iTunes I got this Windows Installer window:
         "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.
    Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package "itunes.msi" in the box below."
    I have tried both options in the Use Source box. I also looked on the Support Forums and saw a common method for fixing problems like this is to uninstal iTunes. When I tried to uninstall iTunes I got the same message as when I tried to reinstall.
    If there is a way to fix this please let me know. I would be extremely grateful!

    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package "itunes.msi" in the box below."
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Why can't I launch another app using a URL scheme in a web clip set up through Configurator with the "full screen app" option selected?

    My company uses web clips on iOS devices, set up through profiles on Configurator, for EVERYTHING. Most of these web clips have a transfer function on the site that allows the user to bring up other apps, like directions to a destination in Google Maps for instance (a URL scheme.) If the option for the web clip to appear as a "full screen app" is selected in Configurator (or iPhone Configuration Utility), this fuction does not work on devices that are running iOS 7. It is imparative to our company that the web clips be full page so there is no address bar, back button, etc. for the users to access. With this feature not working, I have 50+ iOS devices that are usless to us.
    iOS 6 Device --> Configurator 1.3 --> Full Screen Web Clip --> WORKS
    iOS 6 Device --> Configurator 1.4 --> Full Screen Web Clip --> WORKS
    iOS 6 Device --> iPhone Configuration Utility --> Full Screen Web Clip --> WORKS
    iOS 7 Device --> Configurator 1.3 --> Full Screen Web Clip -->  DOESN'T WORK
    iOS 7 Device --> Configurator 1.4 --> Full Screen Web Clip --> DOESN'T WORK
    iOS 7 Device --> iPhone Configuration Utility --> Full Screen Web Clip --> DOESN'T WORK
    iOS 7 Device --> Configurator 1.3 --> NOT Full Screen Web Clip -->  WORKS
    iOS 7 Device --> Configurator 1.4 --> NOT Full Screen Web Clip--> WORKS
    iOS 7 Device --> iPhone Configuration Utility --> NOT Full Screen Web Clip --> WORKS
    Somebody, please help!

    Phil,    I have been trying to figure out a solution to this problem since iOS 7 came out. In hindsight, I should have downloaded the beta versions of the iOS so I would have had even more time. I have talked with quite a few different developers and up until today it was a consensus that this was a "feature" of iOS in an attempt by Apple to diminish the use of webapps. Now most of these people wouldn't be considered apple apologists by any stretch, which could have contributed to their pessimism.    That being said, today I finally received some news that could give us a glimmer of hope. I spent almost 2 hours on the phone today being sent "up the ladder" until I think I found the right person to help (I'm not complaining; I was surprised at how competent and helpful each person that I spoke with was, and I didn't have to explain the situation over and over again.) I think what took so long finding the right person to speak with was that this isn't an issue that any type of troubleshooting would fix. It's not an iPad, iPhone, or even an Apple Configurator issue; it's actually a bug in iOS 7.    Anyways, the senior engineer that I spoke with reassured me, very adamantly, that this was not a feature of the new operating system and most definitely a bug. He said that they take webapps very seriously and are actually looking for ways to improve how webapps work on iOS devices and how they are used with Mobile Device Management software, like Configurator.    I was a little concerned that he said this was the first he or anyone on his team has heard about this problem, but he did work extensively with me today and said that it looks to be a major issue, and something that he and his team are going to try to figure out as soon as possible. He said he would be calling me by Tuesday with information on how and when this will be fixed.     Jon

  • Why can't I launch premier, photoshop or fireworks after updating?

    I'm on a trial, one that I'm very excited for as I'm starting a new business and this software bundle seemed a perfect fit.
    After installing and opening once it seems I'm not allowed to open aGain?
    I hadn't even driven Premier. I opened and closed after looking at the dashboard. Photoshop I only updated?

    Djgmichael69 your inquiry is not completely understandable but it appears that you are facing problems opening Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and Fireworks.  Is this correct?
    If so then I would recommend posting to each of those respective forums.  Please make sure to include relevant details such as which operating system you are using and any applicable error messages.

  • ISync can't be launched - but why?

    new iPhone4, day 1, task 1 - synch folders etc. iTunes appears to initiate the process, but after a few seconds freezing I get the following error message:
    *iSync can't be launched*
    SyncServices: Can't connect to the sync server:
    NSPortTimeoutException: [NSPortCoder
    sendBeforeTime: sendReplyPort:] timed out
    (314907315.726664 314907315.729060) 1 ((null))
    QUIT
    An additional message, which may aid the resolution, is "... iTunes cannot sync info with iPhone... because syncing disabled.. want to enable?" select YES, "syncing can not be enabled on this computer" select OVERRIDE, "iTunes could not sync because sync sesion could not be started" OK - then nothing.
    I'm lost on this one - assistance appreciated.

    This could be a solution but I never tried it because of this note:
    "Note: Manually removing the SyncServices folder is strongly discouraged because this may lead to unexpected data loss."
    - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627?viewlocale=en_US
    But if it works without data loss, congratulations.
    My solution was reinstalling Mac OS X, which is very easy when you have an Time Machine Backup – reinstall, select Backup-Volume, your whole data is copied back to your Mac without data loss.
