Cannot install programs that have been loaded on external hard disk as says none found CD/DVD

Original title: load the program from the hard drive (HD)

I loaded all my programs of their CD/DVD on an external hard drive, I just copied the CD and everything is happy.  On some programs, it does not allow the installation of the HD and says: no disc found.  Can I redirect the programs to install from my external hard drive on my computers HD?

This is based entirely on install of the how these programs were written.  In some cases they install from other than a DVD or CD, in others they do not.  Only those who have implemented these programs can respond.  If you have tried, and they do not work, you have two choices.  You can get the drive and install, or you can try to convince the company that puts it out of their programs to change.  Good luck with this last alternative.  :-)

  • I can't download free programs that have been previously installed

    After reinstalling MAC OS X El Capitan, I can't download free, programs that have been installed previously (Pages, Keynote, Garageband etc..)

    It is possible to solve this problem? Free download and install again?

    These applications come free with a new Mac. they are not included as part of the operating system.

    So if you had previously, they relied on the App Store with your AppleID.

    If yes then you can download them again from the shopping page in the Mac App Store.

    Or you have them on a backup that you made before the re-setup.

  • Cannot install programs that depend on temporary files

    When you try to install several different programs, each one comes with an error that it cannot find a temporary file (often .exe) that it needs to continue. The file is always in the AppData/Local/Temp folder and is simply not there. Any suggestions that could mitigate this problem?

    Hi Liam Kelley,

    1. What is the complete error message you receive when installing programs?
    2. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    3. When was the last time it was working fine?
    4. You have security software installed on the computer?

    Method 1

    I suggest that you try to install programs using administrator privileges and check if that helps.

    • Right-click on the Setup file, and then click on run as administrator.

     

    Method 2

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

    Original title: data recovery

    Is there a program that will allow me to recover programs and files that have been written too by a full system restore?  I had to do a complete system restore, because the computer has been locked up in a start of the closed loop cycle.

    Hi Apmech9,

    1. don't you restore the computer to factory settings?
    2. do you just restore the computer to an earlier time by using the system restore feature in Windows XP?

    If you restore the computer to its factory settings, you will then get in touch with the manufacturer of the system for more support options.

    If you had just restored the computer to an earlier time using System Restore, you can undo the system restore to revert back the changes.

  • Cannot find the boxes with inlay of text that have been converted from Quark

    Hi all.  It's kind of a weird one.  I have a lot of documents that have been converted to different versions of Quark to Indesign CS5.5.  I need to find all the text boxes that have a 0.139 text inset, which seems to be the default for text boxes that have been converted from Quark that have text box.  I'll find/replace, choose the command object and set my search criteria for spacing to insert at 0.139, leaving all other criteria being. He comes back and says no matches found.  If I create a new document and test it, it works fine.  Is there something that I am missing?  What is a "bug" due to a converted Quark document? I tried to uncheck all the attributes object except inset spacing without result.

    Doing this by hand is VERY time consuming as you might imagine.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I think that your problem is with your conversion unit. 0,0139 inches do not match one point PostScript (it is equal to 1,0008 PostScript points). You should try the same method you were using, but rather try to enter "1 point" as your search query.
