I have two copies of the Installer.app?

I have two copies of the Installer.app?  When checking my monitor of activity because of the slowness, I have two applications installer which seem to be hogging cpu and memory.

Can I safely remove a... do something corrupt that they are constantly running?

Howdy Celeste Jones,

Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

From your post it seems that you have a few cases of Installer.app running on your Mac.  You have installed previously, and you still see the installers running on your Dock?  If so, simply complete the installation process or to leave the installers.  If not, then let's go and just restart your computer in safe mode and restart normally to see if the problem persists:

Take care.

  • How to have two copies of the same program to install on WIndows 7 and on the desktop

    «"" "Dear help forum:»»"»

    I am new to WIndows 7, but just have not found the right research
    How to get my answer from Microsoft/Windows 7 basic knowledge.

    I have two programs. There are two versions of the same program
    ('LACE') One is the version 4.0.1, and the other is Version 4.0.6.

    I wish I had one old continue to run (using a purchased
    Product key which I own and have for years).

    BUT there is a problem. The old and new programs are the
    same 'setup.exe '? Download 124 MB each. There are small but
    many corrections and changes in the new program, I am told, but
    they do not have add up to change the size in MB of the program.

    SO I'm in trouble when I'm trying to download the program, as
    It seems to be in WIndows 7, a small program that removes the
    size of the incoming download and informed me that I can not download
    a new that I have already one of this program is installed in the
    computer!

    He asks me if I want to "Uninstall" the previous version and then replace
    It is with a new one. I can't cancel the old version because she had a
    Product key that was told to me in the instructions that he could
    only be used 'once', to uninstall the program won't help
    me as I won't be able to continue to use this program once again, as the
    registration code could only be used once.

    I have a purchased code new, different program version 4.0.6.

    Is this a problem with WIndows 7? I already called/sent the
    company and they have no help and no solution for how these two programs
    are to run on the same computer at the same time.

    Can you please help me and provide instructions on how I load
    This program of "LACE" most recent second size 124 MB and even download
    name in the computer (replacing the automated duplicate program
    prevention installer routine), so I can have and use two copies of
    This program on the computer at the same time?

    During the creation of this issue, I had an idea of what will happen if I created a
    second Downloaded Programs folder to contain the program setup.exe inside
    and try the operation or the opening of this place. He did not like
    the program checked the computer for the first copies of the
    LACE and identified, he was always present in the computer and asked
    Once again if I wanted to remove it.

    Thank you very much!

    If this program is not designed for the execution of the two copies on a single installation of Windows, then you simply can't do.  No ifs, ANDS or goals.  You have never been able to do with any version of Windows, and apparently the creators of this program thinks there is no reason to do so, then you'll just have to choose one version or another.  I'm not familiar with the lace, but more recent versions programs usually include most of the older features while adding the most recent.  They sometimes make us learn new ways of doing things that make us less happy, but I'm afraid that's life in the world of computing.

    That said, I must mention that there may be alternatives that you might continue even if they are less obvious than what you suggested.  If you have the professional version or full edition of Windows, you can get XP mode free you can start Windows 7.  It normally happens in 15 to 30 seconds and you could install and run another version of your program under that.  If you do not either of these versions, you can invest in the Anytime Upgrade and do it available.  Upgrade Home Premium to professional is $ 90.

    The other alternative would be a dual-boot configuration where you could have two versions of Windows in separate partitions, so when you start your computer, you can select the one with the version of your program you want.  I think that the choice of the XP mode would be preferable because it would be so much easier to use, but these two options are available, if you want to continue.

    Good luck.

  • How to activate a purchased standalone Lightroom 6 when I already have two copies of Lightroom active CC.

    I have two copies of the CC installed Lightroom and works OK. I bought a separate stand-alone copy of Lightroom 6 for a laptop. When I try to install, the installer says I can't because I have two copies installed through CC. Is the solution to install the stand-alone copy with my login disabled CC, use a different user name, etc.. ?

    You must install the version independent one using a different Adobe ID.  Create a new for her.

    It is a symptom of textbooks classic does not have read and followed the original instructions to prepare the downloaded files.  You should have two files zip files.  They both must be decompressed in the same directory.  If you unzip using Windows graphic interface - in right click on the name of the file and selecting "extract all...". "the default behavior will be to create a directory, the same name as the zip file and extract in it.  Thus, file_1_of_2 pulls in directory_1_of_2 and file_2_of_2 extracted in directory_2_of_2.  You must override this stupid behavior by default and specify the directory yourself.  And specify the SAME directory for both files.

    Or just go to a command prompt, change directories to the directory where the two zip files are located and deliver "unzip " and "unzip ", and they will both be properly unpack to a directory named "database".

  • I have two versions of the same book on my iphone and ipad.  I want the same book, so I can study on each device.  I tried to remove the books and start again.  It does not work.  Help.

    I have two versions of the same book on my iphone and ipad, which are not synchronized with the other.  I want the same book on each device, so I can study on one or the other.  I tried to remove the books on my phone, ipad & itunes and start again.  It does not work.  Help.

    Hello david.hogan87,

    Thanks for posting about what is happening. If I understand you correctly, you have a book you want on your iPhone and iPad, but neither is synchronizing correctly to have both.

    Have you checked every device to confirm that the same identifier Apple is signed all three?

    iPhone and iPad: head to settings > iTunes and App Store

    iTunes: on a Mac, it's under account or installed depending on the version of iTunes store.  On a PC, it is also under account, and if you don't see the menu bar, click on the triangle in the upper left corner to view the Bar Menu or CTRL + B on the keyboard.

    If all 3 have the same signed Apple ID, post the version of iOS and iTunes for all three devices here, please.

    Best regards.

    After that the foregoing, add codec - get these 32 bit if:

    Or try these: download - SAVE - go to the place where your put them RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN.

    For 32-bit use these - OR the 32 bit ones listed above which I prefer.

    K - Lite Codec Pack 6.2.0 (or newer)

    Use them for 64-bit:

  • While turning on the laptop its gives me a message "your pc will restart in two days for the installation of updates.

    About a week ago I just bought windows mobile 8 is installed. Now for the last two days while turning on the laptop its gives me a message "your pc will restart in two days for the installation of updates.

    To stop, I get three option 1) sleep 2) arrested update 3) and close

    What should I do?

    Original title: windows update issue 8.

    Hi Parichay,

    The updates that are being invited to install are automatic updates.

    The message you get is offered by Windows 8 after that updates are downloaded and installed.

    If you do not restart your computer soon, Windows will force a restart of your computer two days after that it has installed new updates to complete their installation.

    You must restart your computer at a convenient time for you, rather than wait two days and have it suddenly reboot maybe at an inopportune time.

    Hope that solves your problem.

  • I have windows xp after the installation of service pack 3 I can only start in safe mode

    I have windows XP after the installation of service pack 3 I can only start in safe mode?

    Hello

    ·         You get the error message?

    ·         What happens when you try to start in normal mode?

    Method 1

    Windows XP can in every start Safe Mode by default. Even if you select the option Start Windows normally, it always starts in Mode without failure. IOW, you can't get out of safe mode.

    This happens if the switch/SafeBoot is added to the Boot.ini file. / SafeBoot parameter forces a boot in safe mode by using the specified parameters. The available parameters are:

    (a) minimal

    (b) network

    (c) safeboot: minimal (alternateshell)

    For more information about the boot.ini switches, see visualization and correction of the settings of the boot on x 86 systems

    RESOLUTION

    (a) click Start, run and type MSCONFIG

    (b) click the Boot.ini tab

    (c) If you have a dual-boot system, select the entry that is appropriate under the [operating systems]

    (d) in section downstairs, Startup Options uncheck / hisFEBOOT

    (e) click OK

    (f) restart Windows

    The entry/SafeBoot are removed from the Boot.ini file.

    Method 2:

    If the above method is not the cause, it seems that Service Pack 3 is not installed correctly.

    Step 1: You try to run the system restore from safe mode that will repair return the computer to the point while it was working fine.
