  • Why do I get the message "Insufficient Permissions" when trying to download updated iTunes software

    Why do I get "Insufficient Permissions" message?

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Why do I get the 'PowerPC code' error when trying to launch an Intel-based app from a CD?

    When trying to launch a Flash-based app from a CD on my Mac Book Pro, I get the "PowerPC apps are no longer supported" error. Yet the app is not built with PowerPC code.
    This also happened with Microsoft Office programs soon after I upgraded to OSX Lion, but someone was able to solve that for me.

    It's just a free disc from a photo magazine, but the app runs fine on a Mac Pro running 10.7.3. Could it be hardware related?
    I have actually asked this on behalf of a reader (I work for the company that makes the magazine) who is experiencing this problem, I just can't find any reason why the error would display in these circumstances. I apologise if this is against the community's usual practise - I just want to sort this guy out!
    The app on the disc is compiled using MDM Zinc, but like I said it runs a-OK on Lion everywhere else.
    Any help would be gratefully received and appreciated!

  • I'm getting the message -50 error when i try to export my project on iMovie '09. What does this mean??

    I'm getting the message -50 error when i try to export my project on iMovie '09. What does this mean??

    Hi
    Error -50 paramErr  Error in user parameter list
    Can there be any external hard disks - if so How is/are it/they formatted ? Must be Mac OS Extended (hfs) if used for Video.
    UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most but not for VIDEO.
    free space on internal boot hard disk? How much ?
    Video codec
    streamingDV, AIC etc. (not .avi, .mp4, .m4v, .wmv etc as they are containers not codecs)
    Pictures
    in what format ? .jpg, .bmp, .tif, else ?
    Audio
    from where/what format ? iTunes, .avi, .mp3, .aiff, else ?
    iMovie/iDVD preference file
    The "com.apple.iMovie.plist" file or "com.apple.iDVD.plist"
    Many users has not observed that there are TWO libraries.
    _ Library - at root level
    _ Library - in user/account folder - THIS IS THE ONE to look into
    from Luke Burns
    I fixed the problem.. but it was very, very strange. I had a very long section for credits and set the line spacing to 1.0.. for some reason this caused it. I removed it, and it worked fine. I put it back, and I couldn't preview or play the video.
    I don't know why that could cause that big of a problem, but it did..

    You need more free space on your hard drive.
    Where do Your material come from
    Camera
    External hard disk
    USB-memory
    And all are connected so that iMovie can find it ?
    from: jonorparkerjon
    After phone support from apple I ended up creating a new project and adding all 117 clips back in individually till I found out what clips flagged and would not allow me to export. I had 3 I deleted and replaced and everything works now 1hr after tedious work....
    from Karsten S
    Shorter clips than 1,5 sec might be one of the culptrits
    Bengt cont.
    Set-Up might differ
    Mac OS - most probably X.7 or more
    iMovie version - more than iM'11 v. 9.0.4
    Action taken
    Finalizing project - I never do as I never understood the gain to do so
    Share as HD to iDVD - never give any gain but if it works the resulting DVD is less quality than if SD-quality was shared
    fps - set - I only use PAL (25fps)
 
    Yours Bengt W

  • Why am I getting an app store error when trying to download Lion?

    Why am I getting an app store error when trying to download Lion? Any ideas?

    I would complain really bad and get them to give you a Flash card that they just came out with because they've inconvenienced you so much and  you don't have hours to spend at the apple store waiting for the whole thing to load.
    The only thing about the flash cards is that it will change your whole motherboard so it won't allow you to install snow leopard or anything less, ever again. (as what the apple specialist told me over the phone).
    I would also suggest waiting. It really isn't worth the hastle and you may not benefit from installing it on your old computer... just a thought.

  • Why does it say server error when trying to sign into icloud on my microsoft

    I downloaded i cloud for my windows computer and when i try signing into it it says server error. what does this mean. i am trying to set up icloud so i can save photos
    Please help

    Have you tried this with any player and does this happens with all browsers or some specific browser ?
    Its possible that correct MIME is not rendered ,browsers rely on the MIME type sent in the server headers.
    Can you test out with different files and new pages , try to use original format of mp4 for testing.
    Thanks,
