Windows 8, "Installer Interface Mode Not Supported"

I am getting the "Installer UI Mode Error", "Installer User Interface Mode Not Supported"
I have tried compatibility mode, as this worked on my previous laptop Windows 7 and XP sp3, but when I "Test Program" and the InstallAnywhere Self-Extractor completes install prep. to 100%, there is no response.

Is this a very, very old program? What program?
Have you done an Internet search to see if anyone else has gotten it to install?
Have you tried running it As Administrator, in addition to the compatibility modes?

Coldfusion dev installer wont work - "installer user interface mode not supported..."

i just downloaded the os x version of coldfusion 7 mx
developer edition (for the thrid time making sure the download
wasn't corrupt) and extracted the zip and launched the installer by
double-clicking it. the install screen pops up where it lets you
choose what language and i press ok. almost instantly i get an
error message to pop up that says... "Installer user interface mode
not supported. Unable to load and to prepare the installer in GUI
mode."
umm... what?!
does anyone have any idea what's going on and why the
installer is misbehaving?! thanks!
: : michael

and the answer for others stuck on this...
the problems is an installanywhere bug where if the anything
in the directory path contains special characters like "!" or "#" ,
it causes problems with the install. in my case, the directory path
had a "!" in it... hope this helps someone else out!

Can you help me solve this issue?

You need to switch to desktop view and run the installer from there.

Mac Pro to Samsung HDTV - "Mode not supported"???

Alright, so I have just received my new Mac Pro in the mail yesterday and wanted to hook it up to my television - a 1080p Samsung (Samsung LN-T4671F) HDTV. I am using a DVI-to-VGA cable. I feel I should probably explain the entire situation so that it's all clear.
The first time I started the computer after plugging it into the TV, the Apple logo with the Loading, spinning thing (not the multicolored wheel) showed in beautiful 1920x1080. After loading, the screen jumped to a lower resolution for a second and then went black, finally giving me a "Mode not supported" error. Thinking it was just a little hiccup, I restarted the computer and after the Apple logo screen, it showed me a screen on how to put batteries in my mouse (or something along those lines, I didn't really look), and then it had me set up my wireless keyboard. After this, it showed me the WELCOME video and allowed me to log on to my computer and start using it.
After about 15 minutes, I was going through the system prefs and came across display. Thinking maybe I should lower the resolution to better see text, I clicked on a lower resolution around 1600xsomething. The screen went black and gave me the "Mode not supported" error again. I thought I could just wait a few seconds and if I didn't confirm the resolution, it would go back...but it never did. After trying to restart my computer a number of times and receiving the error message each time, I booted in Safe Mode, which I am in right now.
I went into the sys prefs and made sure the resolution was set to 1920x1080, which it already was, and restarted the computer. Error again. I went into the settings of my TV and went to PC and had it auto correct the resolution to the input. Error again. I have been running in Safe Boot since - no sound is annoying - and enjoying the display in full 1920x1080 (1080p)...so the set obviously supports it (and the manual says it does too).
My video card is an NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT. What's most annoying is that it's pretty obvious that the display supports this resolution and yet won't allow it to work outside of Safe Boot mode.
Please help

Had the same problem with an AOC 1080p TV, trying to connect to it using VGA cable.
Ivan's earlier post clued me in to solution:
- Plug in the TV, get the "Mode not supported" message on the TV
- Open the Display Preferences, you should see the display preferences for the laptop "Color LCD" monitor. Click the "Gather Displays" button - this should bring the display preferences for the TV behind the laptop preferences window. Switch to the TV's display preferences window.
- In the TV's display preferences window, switch refresh rate down to 59.9 Hertz (your TV may need different refresh rate, but on mine I only get options for 59.9 or 60).
That did it for me!

Mode not supported when trying to connect mac to tv

I'm trying to connect my Mac to the TV as I do nearly every day using my HDMI cable via the apple HDMI adaptor (don't know exactly what that cable is called). But when I try it cuts in and out in fuzziness for a bit then eventually comes up with the error message on my tv "mode not supported". I can't see any visible faults in the cables at all. Do I need to replace one or both of the cables? Or is there something else wrong? If it's the cables, how do I figure which needs replacing without having to buy both if it's only one of them? Help!

ORA-20101: Row based mode not supported

Hi,
I'm having this situation:
Process flow with 4 mappings ends with 2 mappings successfully and 2 mappings with error:
ORA-20101: Row based mode not supported
But when I started those mappings separatly (one by one) they've all completed successfully.
Is it possible that default operating mode and generation mode can cause this error? On those 2 mapping that failed the default operating mode and generation mode was SET_BASED. But it was the same when I ran them again and they did complete with success..
Has anyone came accross with this or similar situation?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards
Vedran

Vedran,
What's the version of owb you are using?
can you post header of the package assiociated to process flow?
I had a problem running my "Set Based" mapping. It fails with the same error message "Row based mode not supported".
I noticed that the sequence of "Generation Mode" in my OWB 11.2 (on windows) was:
row_based = 1
row_baesd_target =2
set_based=3
set_based_failover=4
set_based_failover_target=5
but that of related package header was:
MODE_SET CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 0;
MODE_ROW CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 1;
MODE_ROW_TARGET CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 2;
MODE_SET_FAILOVER_ROW CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 3;
MODE_SET_FAILOVER_ROW_TARGET CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 4;
I think it is a bug because changing this part of package as following and recompiling the package, my problem has been solved:
MODE_SET CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 3;
MODE_ROW CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 1;
MODE_ROW_TARGET CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 2;
MODE_SET_FAILOVER_ROW CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 4;
MODE_SET_FAILOVER_ROW_TARGET CONSTANT BINARY_INTEGER := 5;

"Mode not supported", when try to connect to TV

When I try to connect my Lenovo T440s to my TV using VGA cable, I get a "Mode not supported" message on the television screen and the laptop screen goes black. Some points that may make it easier to troubleshoot: 1. I was able to connect to this laptop successfully to this TV on prior occasions. 2. I am able to connect this laptop to an external monitor in my office successfully 3. I am able to connect other computers to this TV successfully. So what could it be? Any thoughts?

MacBook Mini-DVI to VGA - Samsung 32" LCD - Mode Not Supported

I followed the instructions on Apple's site to use the MacBook with the lid closed and an external LCD. It worked perfectly the first time I tried it. (I believe in 1920 x 1024). It seemed a little hard to read so I changed the Display resolution, then encountered the "Mode Not Supported" on my LCD. I unhooked and used my MacBook to change the settings back, but the MacBook seems to revert to the "Mode Not Supported" resolution when I close the lid. Any suggestions? Can I reset the Display Preferences on my MacBook?

I think this procedure should work, but it requires an external USB keyboard.
- Shut down the Mac.
- Have all the following connected:
- MacBook power supply
- External display
- USB keyboard and mouse
- Open the lid on the MacBook and hit the power button.
- Immediately close the lid on the MacBook and start holding down the Shift key on the USB keyboard.
- Release the Shift key once you see the spinning gear on the gray screen on the external display.
The above procedure should cause the Mac to start in Safe mode and hopefully will finish booting into a useable screen. If that is the case, go into Displays preferences and select a known working resolution different from the one the Mac started up in under Safe mode. Now restart normally. Hopefully the newly selected resolution will persist through the normal restart and you will have a working external screen again.

Mid 2010 Macbook Pro to a Samsung Tv. (Mode not supported)

Hi, I have a macbook pro mid 2010, when connected to an external tv, i get the mirroring option, however when i uncheck the mirroring option (cause i need 2 desktops screen instead of one), my external monitor shows " Mode not supported ". I have a samsung LCD TV. It works perfectly with mirroring option, but I don't want a mirroring option..... Can anyone help?

I have a MacBook Pro 15 inch early 2011.
The new features available in OS X Yosemite like Continuity, Handoff,etc are not supported in this model.
I did upgrade RAM to avoid any possible slowdown.
I found replacing the HD with SSD is too expensive for a 4 years old model.
Replacing the CPU/GPU is not for amateurs.
If you think that rebuilding a Mac part by part is a viable option, please go ahead and rebuild it.
Best.

Monitor says VIDEO MODE NOT SUPPORTED after changing display settings

HELP! I am about to have a nervous breakdown with my mac mini! I hooked up the mac to my Philips LCD via DVI. No problem at all. But because the screen is only 15" I wanted to play around with the display settings a bit. So I changed the resolution from it's original 1204x768 to the one higher (not sure of numbers) and to my HORROR, I now can't get any picture at all - it says "VIDEO MODE NOT SUPPORTED". I have tried everything I can think of. I have rest the P-RAM, I have unplugged all cables, plugged the back in again, I bought the mac into work and hooked it up to my monitor and changed the resolution back to 1024x768 which is what it was on originally and that STILL didn't work. I can see the Apple logo and then it goes black and comes up with the error message. HELP! What am I doing wrong - I can't believe one click of a mouse button has rendered my display useless!!!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Try booting the mini without the display connected, and then, once the system is running, connect the display. This will often force the system to default to a low resolution, and then correctly detect the display when it is connected.
If that doesn't help, with the display connected, boot into safe mode (hold the shift key down when starting up) and once the system is running, change the resolution to 1024x768, and ensure the correct refresh rate is selected. Rebooting normally ought then to give you a good display.
If all else fails, boot into safe mode with the display connected, and then in the Finder's file menu, use the 'find' option to search for 'windowserver' (no quotes). You should get 2 or 3 results, including one with a string of alphanumeric characters. Move all of them to the trash and restart normally.

Mode not supported

one day mac mini working fine connected to Samsung LCD at all resolutions, next day get mode not supported. called samsung, said to play with the resolution setting, which meant that each time I had to disconnect and connect to my 17in computer monitor tried all resolutions with no luck. At start-up apple screen with spinning wheel show on LCD panel but then as it is about to show desktop I get a black screen with message Mode not supported. Any I ideas, it was working perfectly from the the get go without any adjustment basically plug and play.

Here is the standard Apple article that addresses this type of issue.

When i connect my macbook using the mini hdmi to my HD samsung tv, the response is always "mode not supported". ideas?

I'm using the mini HDMI to connec to a Samsung HDTV. The response is always "Mode Not Supported." Anyone know what to do? Trying to watch TV shows from iTunes on the TV. Thanks, Hugh

Hi Jake,
It's impossible to know without troubleshooting, but it sure sounds like a bad adapter or cable.

"Mode not supported" when connecting MacBook Pro to HDTV

When I connect my MacBook Pro to the SAMSUNG widescreen HDTV and hit "Detect Displays", it does detect it as VGA Display and it gives me a bunch of options for resolutions and refresh rates, but there was no "Options" tab where I could check or uncheck "Overscan" and even keeping the refresh rate at 60 Hz, and even trying mirrored and non-mirrored screens, nothing worked. It still said "Mode not supported". I used a dual-link DVI to YPbPr cable which I just bought and my friend can connect his MacBook Pro to his HDTV with the same cable, but it doesn't seem to work for me. What's wrong?

Try using an app like to get the stranince resolution:

G5 with samsung 52" tv Mode not supported

Does anyone know how I can make my Powermac G5(single 1.8 ATI Radeon 9800pro) work with my Samsung 52 inch TV at HD resolution
I am attempting to convert my old Powermac G5 into a media computer. At some point I may want to add a blu-ray drive.
When I use the DVI on the G5 with a DVI to VGA adapter and connect to the TV via its VGA input. There is no picture and the TV says "mode not supported".
When I connect a second monitor to the ADC (via ADC to DVI) I can get the G5 to show up on the TV in mirror or extended mode (if I set the resolution to 1024 x 768 or less).
I have tried hocking up a monitor via VGA, setting the resolution to 1024x768, then shut done, restart with TV attached and still "mode not supported"
I have also tried making the TV as the main desktop in extended mode then restarting without the second monitor and still "mode not supported"
I tried a DVI to HDMI adapter but I got nothing "searching for signal" I would assume this should work so it might have been bad so I am going to exchange it and get a new one and try that.
?

I had to do the same, that is, accept a lower resolution for my LCD TV.
Using a Geforce 6800 GT, I have an interesting mix of "i" and "p" resolutions, but, as with the 9800 Pro, no 1920x1080p.
Just as well, though, as I couldn't read the text at highest resolution.
I'm pretty sure that this is simply a case of the high resolution 16:9 ratios not being supported in these older cards.
The resolutions that are available in the firmware of the cards are predominately for 16:10 ratio screens.
Remember, HDTV is a lot newer than most all AGP graphics cards.
I guess, when I have time, I'll have to play with DisplayConfigX and see if there is hope.
