Why do I receive error messages when installing Adobe air installation packages?

I have Adobe Air Applications installed on my Dell XPS laptop but when i try and add new applications I get an error messaage that the installation file is corrupt.
I am not convinced that this is the case, it is happening too often. I think that Adobe Air is the problem but Adobe seem oblivious and not offering any support.

Thanks. I tried it and got the same error message. To me it's obvious that Adobe upgrades and programs have serious bugs in their install programs. I find this incredible from a company that creates such sophisticated programs and they cannot create install programs that actually work!!

  • Error Message when installing Adobe AIR

    Hi, I am running XP and previously had Adobe AIR installed ok.  I recently removed the install of Adobe AIR and have tried to reload it but get the below error message:
    "An error occurred while installing Adobe AIR. Installation may not be allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator."
    I have tried safe mode, registry cleaners, turning of the firewall, pop ups and anti-virus, to installing as an Administrator without luck and get exactly the same error message. I notice I am not alone after searching Google but haven’t found anything that works.
    I would really appreciate some guidance on what do next or from someone that has experienced the same issues.
    Many Thanks

    Hi Chris,
    Thanks for responding but I decided to rebuild the machine so its all resolved with a clean XP build.
    Thanks, Mark

  • I keep receiving error -24 when installing adobe air on my tablet

    I have been trying for months to install adobe air on my samsung galaxy tab 3, but constantly receive error -24. I need this to run some of my apps, so this is frustrating. I've tried emailing the Adobe android team via Google play, but the email was returned as "so such user". Any ideas how to solve this issue?

  • Error message when downloading adobe air app.

    I have according to the installation program successfully installed adobe air. I am now trying to download an adobe air app from Jacqui Lawson and keep getting the following message.
    "Sorry an error has occurred. The application could not be installed. Try installing it again. If the problem persists, contact the application author."
    I have read other comments regarding this matter and tried everything suggested so far. I am still having the same issue.
    I am running windows vista 32 bit. All firewall and anti virus are off, UAC is enabled, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program and I have tried using a different browser. Can anyone suggest anything else to try.

    Many of us have encounted this issue. The problem is not confined to a particular version or computer operating. Many homemade remedies and scientific ones have worked for some and not others. The most recent fix was offered by an ID by the name of Maud Barbara and seems to have been the answer for that user and at least one more.

    Hello 
    I had the same problem as you and I just d have the solution:
    go to C / program files (86) / common files/OOBE
    Rename OOBE by OLDOOBE
    and your problem is resolved
    You can reinstall the software
    What worked for me in this case was none of the above. How I and others navigated this installation problem is documented in the thread cited.

  • Error Message when installing adobe reader 9.1

    I have a relatively new HP Pavilion dv6936us Entertainment Notebook PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  I cannot get adobe reader installed.  I always get an error message or it says the install was interrupted.  VERY frustrating!  Please help.  I have tried the automatic download.  Also, the screen says " if download does not start automatically click here to download" and I have tried that too.  Neither work.

    Try being sure you are logged in as the administrator and have anti-virus turned off. Other than that, you should go to the Reader forum for that product.

  • 2005pr Port Replicator - receive error message when installing

    I'm trying to installer the software for the HP 2005pr 2.0 Port Replicator. About 2/3 of the way through I get a screen that pops up  for Windows Installer, with a bunch of information. I tried to attach a screen shot but couldn't. This screen stays to the front of everything else opened until I click OK.
     Once I click OK on this screen I get a message that reads as follows:
         "Smsc iinstaller occurred error"
    When I click OK it shuts down the installer.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi NLDennis,
    Please note remove any and all USB devices, and remove memory cards from the card reader slot. Disconnect all non-essential devices. In the device manager I need you to click on Universal serial bus (USB) controller and right click on all devices uninstall. Restart the computer wait till everything stops. Then insert the Port Replicator.
    To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.
    Thanks.

  • Does anyone know why i get this error message when installing CS5.1? "your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the mac apple story and identified developers.

    I was given this link to re download my programs. https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-5-product-downloads.html
    anyone know why i am not getting them to download?

    One way to bypass the Gatekeeper is to right or ctrl click on the Installer and choose Open from the Context menu.
    Then it will give you that option to run the installer app.

    We purchased Licensed version of Red Hat Linux Oracle for our network server. My boss wanted a simple way of installing Samba on it so that the server can be used for file and printer sharing. We have an active directory on our network and couple of other Windows servers as well as other Red Hat servers. He wants to install Samba on that licensed version so that it can primarily be used for file storage and sharing, he wants to be able to connect with gui type interface to this server from windows machines and linux machines and he wants for this Red Hat Linux Oracle machine to show up in active directory.
    Aparently when we went to Applications, Add Remove Software in Red Hat Fedora Samba was not in there.
    When we go to System, Administration, Server Settings, Services, Samba is also not there.
    Nowhere can we find an easy way of installing samba on this Linux OS.
    I went to your site, signed in, (previously there was only 1 channel available there, I have just recently found and added all the channels that were aplicable to our system) and downloading them now to another version of the same type of Licensed Red Hat Linux Oracle. Hopefully when I use Software Updater in System Tools it will load the packages we are loking for (from the channels I selected on your website). Once that is done I think I could just go to add remove software and install the packages that I need from there.
    I am still not sure why I set out to install repositories on this version of Linux, perhaps I mistakenly thought that once everything is installed (according to directions at http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/htdocs/yum-repository-setup.html) on the machine in question I would be able to use that same machine to get the packages for that same machine. We were in such a rush and desperate to put the server on to the network it did not dawn on me that this scenario is designed to have one serve on the network that holds repositories and other machines connect to it for packages.
    I think I am on the right track in my logic, log in to your site with the CSI number, user name and password, select ALL the channels versus only one, save the search, then from the machine update packages, then add new software and Samba Should be in there. I would like to hear your thoughts on this.
    This version of Linux seem like a very reliable version of OS and I would hate to give up on it, especially since we already bought licenses for it, its just that we don't have that much experience with it and I would upreciate all the info that you can give us for it. I am sure that everyone at SMMJ will upreciate you for it.

  • "The language of this installation package is not supported by your system" Error Message when installing Office 2010

    Hello, I am having a very hard time attempting to install Office 2010 Pro Plus on a system.  The error message that I receive is as follows:
    The language of this installation package is not supported by your system.
    I have tried running the Microsoft FixIt tool to remove any traces of Office 2007 and Office 2010.  Also, I have followed the instructions in
    KB928218 to manually uninstall any traces of Office 2007.
    I believe the user had both Office 2007 and Office 2010 installed previously.  There is no article to remove all traces of Office 2010.
