You do not have adequate operating system rights to install software on this machine.

I have installed Lion yesterday but I am now getting the above message when trying to reinstall a program.  This is despite my user login saying "Admin".  Help? Anyone?
Hate how,despite checking the box to stop my laptop starting up as it was when I shut down,that it still opens everything when I restart.
Hate how Safari keeps opening with the tabs I have already closed.
Sheesh think I am going to have to go back to Snow Leopard. Thank God for Time Machine.

I had the same problem but contacted customer support for the games I use (Big Fish) and they were brilliant.  Sent me a link to download their new BETA version of Game Manager for Lion.
Try contacting whoever you are downloading your games from.

  • What does "you do not have enough genius suggestions in your library to use this feature mean?

    what does "you do not have enough genius suggestions in your library to use this feature mean?

    At face value it would suggest the content of your library is too obscure, however it might mean your library is too small for the feature to be active, or that it hasn't catalogued your content yet.

  • HT204406 On Phase 3, I keep getting hung up with a Dialog box that says " itunes file cannot be saved.  You do not have enough access privileges.  Does anyone know what this means and how to solve it?

    I amy trying to complete IMatch, but on PHase 3, I get the error message: The itunes file cannot be saved.  You do not have enough access privileges for this operation.  Does anyone have the same issue, or know how to fix it.  Thank you!

    I didn't know that iTunes had a 64bit download. I have Windows 7 Home Premium with 64bit operation system. I downloaded the iTunes for 64bit and it seems to have corrected the problem. I haven't received the message yet since I did this.

  • You do not have the required privileges to create a workspace in this Locat

    Hi there,
    First time using online beehive, I am trying to create a new workspace so I can add an external user, but get above error when clicking 'new workspace'
    Can you help me here?
    Thanks
    Tony

    Tony,
    Workspace Creation is restricted to prevent random test workspace popping up and the sponsor of the group is the administrator of the privilege. Contact your group sponsor and explain why you need to create Workspaces and they can give you the necessary privileges.

  • Can't create new BeehiveOnline Workspace "You do not have the required..."

    I'm trying to create a new BeehiveOnline Workspace. I follow the instructions from the FAQ, but as soon as I click on the "New/Workspace" option, I receive this error "You do not have the required privileges to create a workspace in this Location"
    The location looks like "/Oracle" but when I click on the associated "+" icon, nothing else displays.
    I am trying to create this new workspace around Mid-Day on Sunday in Australia, so is it possible the system is "down", or is this a genuine privileges error? and if so how do I fix it?

    This error is caused by you not having workspace creation rights - BeehiveOnline has restrictions on who can create workspaces. Go to beehiveonline.oracle.com and click on the right button. Find out who the group administrator is of your group and ask them to grant you workspace creation rights.

    Thanks, but I've done that several times & it still says I need administraive privileges. I had itunes installed with no problems until I did the latest update. After that it just disappeared, so I tried reinstalling. Now I can't sync my phone. This is so frustrating!

    Hi,
    What's the error when you create a computer variable manually?
    Please make sure you have give "Modify Resource" permission to this user. You could see it in Administration workspace -> Security -> Security Roles -> Full Administrator -> Collections -> Modify Resource.

  • You do not have security permissions to complete this operation. Contact your administrator for more information.

    Hi everyone,
    I had a little trouble finding this on ony forums, so i decided to write it myself.
    I have setup on my Windows server 2008 machine fax server manager. It is working well (recieving faxes and forwarding it through email)
    It has been setup with a d-link external fax modem.
    Everytime i try to connect my client computer (windows vista business 32 bit)  to the fax server through windows keep getting " you do not have security permissions to complete this operation. Contact your administrator for more information."
    I am having a little trouble getting around it as i am the system administrator and have all the rights to do this. I have also added extra to my account fax rights as i thorght, that could of been the problem. I have also added my account in the fax server manager, but that did not work as well.
    Everything is set up on a domain and the server that is running fax service manager is on it aswell, not sure what could be the problem.
    Thank you in advanced for your help

    Hi,
    Thanks for the post.
    First, I would like to confirm if the issue occurs with the Domain Admins.
    If so, please check if the relevant group policies are set appropriate.
    To resolve this issue, make sure that the Network Service account and the Local Service account is added to the following policy settings on the domain controller:
    ·         Adjust memory quotas for a process
    ·         Generate security audits
    ·         Log on as a service
    ·         Replace a process level token
    ·         Log on as a batch job
    To configure the policy settings for the Network Service account on the domain controller, follow these steps:
    1.    Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Local Security Policy.
    2.    Expand Local Policies, and then click User Rights Assignment.
    The policy settings are displayed in the right pane.
    3.    Double-click the policy setting that you want to add the Network Service account to.
    4.    If the Network Service account and the Local service account is not in the list of users and groups that are assigned to that policy setting, click Add User or Group.
    5.    In the Select User or Groups dialog box, type Network Service in the Enter the object names to select box, and then click OK.
    6.    Verify that NETWORK SERVICE is displayed in the list of users and groups that are assigned to that policy setting, and then click OK.
    7.    Add Local service the same way.
    8.    Reboot the server.
    Does it work?
    If the problem continues, Please collect the MPSReport from Windows Server 2008.
    1. Download proper MPS Report tool from the website below.
    Microsoft Product Support Reports
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=CEBF3C7C-7CA5-408F-88B7-F9C79B7306C0&displaylang=en
    2. Double-click to run it, if requirement is not met, please follow the wizard to download and install them. After that, click Next, when the "Select the diagnostics you want to run" page appears, select "General", “Business Networks”, click Next.
    3. After collecting all log files, choose "Save the results", choose a folder to save <Computername>MPSReports.cab file.
    Use Windows Live SkyDrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com/) to upload the file and then give me the download address.
    Hope this helps.

  • Microsoft Outlook 2010 The delegates settings were not saved correctly. Cannot activate Send-on-behalf-of list. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.

    I am trying to assign delegation to a user and I receive the following message.
    The delegates settings were not saved correctly.  Cannot activate Send-on-behalf-of list.  You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.
    We are using 2010 for the server and client.  There are only specific mailboxes that this is happening for after being migrated from Lotus Notes.  The user can use their mailfile fine however it is just the delegation that appears corrupted somehow. 
    I'm not sure how to fix this.  I have checked the access through the security tab in ad and that looks fine.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I did some more digging and I solved it.
    This would be the solution:
    In Active Directory Users and Computers
    -Click on VIEW
    -Click on ADVANCE FEATURES  (this is important otherwise you won't see
    the complete list in the next steps)
    -Click on the USERS container
    -Find the problem user's account
    -Right mouse the account and click on PROPERTIES
    -Click on the SECURITY tab
    -In the top box, click on the SELF account
    -In the bottom portion of the screen make sure the READ PERSONAL
    INFORMATION  & WRITE PERSONAL INFORMATION  should both be checked for
    ALLOW
    If you can compare the permissions for 'SELF' with another user you probably should set them accordingly to be safe. I noticed that for the user where setting delegates (SOB) did
    not work, more than those 2 permissions were missing.
    Good luck!

  • How do i resolve my itunes from saying " The itunes application could not be opened. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."

    Everytime i click to go to my itunes, the message "The Itunes application could not be opened. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." pops up. I have tried my best to fix it by adding another account to my computer and setting that one as the administator and mine as the regular user. When i did that the itunes worked on both, but when i changed my account back to administator and the other account to the regular user my account didnt work but the other one did. I also tried to uninstall and reinstall itunes. This message popped up when i tried to update the itunes to the newest one. And still it wont go away. Can someone help me please. Thanks!

  • When accessing shared folder - 'You might not have permission to use this network resource" .. A device attached to the system is not functioning

    On a Windows 2008 R2 server that had been working fine, all of a sudden some shared folders became inaccessible.  Clicking on them returned the following: "<Folder> is not accessible.  You might not have permission to use this network
    resource.  A device attached to the system is not functioning."
    If I create another share with a different name for that same folder, it works fine.  If I delete the original share then recreate it with the same name, I get the same error.  However, if I right click on the problematic share and select 'map
    network drive' that works.  So this would not appear to be a permission issue.
    I discovered this problem because the path for mapping the home folder as a property of their AD account stopped working.
    I have tried most of the common things found on the internet.  I've tried accessing via IP, same issue.  While I only have a couple 2003 servers, those can access this resource.
    At this point, I'm pretty much out of ideas.  Any help would be appreciated.  I also have some reports of potential issues with some printer mappings too which I will have to investigate in the morning.
    If anyone has a solution to this I would be extremely grateful.  Thank you.

    Hi,
    Can you access the shard folder locally? Is a specific server cannot access the shared folder? Please try to Boot your server in Clean Mode to check if some third-party software cause the issue.
