improper installation of el capitan cannot access applications

Did an upgrade ti 10.11.3 yesterday on my mac mini (end of 2012).  Restarted at the end.  Tried to access applications by opening 1 password and a browser to see that it was not possible.  Receipt of pop-up error "cannot open the application"safari.app"because it amy is damaged or incomplete" same error message on any .app, including those who are in excellent shape is copied from another machine.

Everything worked fine before.

Finder also works but extremely slow. Example 2-4 minutes to open a file or a folder. It starts then stops running something in the background. more 2-4 minutes later it will work again.  For a period of time.

Tried to run a disk of an old macbook pro utility (2006) Yes it is limping.  But was not able to access the drive through the utility disc or with Drive Genius. Then it copied on an own USB.  When I tried to start, he got the same message as above.

Then tried to download a new copy of the 10.11.3 hoping to create a usb startup and it reboot with it and do another installation.  But when I tried that received a score of the app store is stating that I can not download because my machine is not compatible (macbook), but not the case that I have sought to find a place to down load a copy.

To add a taste of adventure, I'm in a small town of the Nicaragua.  The apple store is 2, 5-3 hours drive.

Someone at - it suggestions as to how I can fix this without having to go to the apple store.  Because, generally, no matter how small the problem that they want to keep the camera which means another trip back to pick it up.

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Thank you

Brian

If everything worked really well before the upgrade, then you'd have no problems. Something was not right. Your computer is compatible with El Capitan?

Try this:

MacIntel: Reset of the controller (SMC) system management

Reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.

Repair the hard drive and permissions - El Capitan

HD recovery start:

Restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and hold down the COMMAND and R until the menu screen appears.

Repair

When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility and press the continue button. Disk utility charges and select Macintosh HD entry indented from the list on the left.  Click the first aid tab in the toolbar... If disk utility reports any errors that have been corrected, then re-run first aid until no errors are reported. Wait until the operation is complete, then quit disk utility and return to the main menu. Select restart from the Apple menu.

Now, download and reinstall OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 Combo Update.

    Mac that can be upgraded to OS X El Capitan

1 iMac (mid-2007 or newer) - model identifier 7.1 or later

2 MacBook (late 2008 or early 2009 or newer aluminium) - model identifier 5.1 or later

3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

4 MacBook Air (late 2008 or newer)- model identifier 2.1 or later

5 mac mini (early 2009 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

6 mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version

7 Xserve (early 2009) - model identifier 3.1 or later version

To find the identifier of the model open system information in the Utilities folder. It is displayed in the Panel on the right.

My applications are compatible?

  • Cannot access application after renewal of the Plan

    My annual membership for renewed CC today. Now, I can't in my applications. WHEN I open applications such as PS, and MUSE it gives me the window as seen in the first post here: creative cloud sign me or asking to connect you several times

    He has my correct email in it for ID, and if I click to connect, it takes my login password, it tells me "CC will now be licensed dethrone click to continue and enjoy the software.» So I click on, then it attempts to open the app because it bounces a couple times in my dock and the low and behold! I get the same "Sign required In" original window. Again and again, this happens and none of my applications. open such as described. For some reason, I can open the bridge?

    So, I did all the suggestions listed that I could find here on the forum and on Google:

    I tried to uninstall the desktop CC app, but it would allow me to because he says that I still have applications on computer that required it. I won't uninstall 20 + apps just to try this fix.

    I used the tool for cleaning Application Adobe and applied to my CC desktop application and the Adobe application manager, several times, restarted my computer several times and it does not work.

    I reinstalled the application of CC desktop and restarted my computer several times and it does not work.

    I removed my oobe folder, as seen in this post:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/creative-cloud/KB/signed-out-sign-in-required-error-248.html

    and that did nothing.

    I contacted Adobe about their cat and that nobody could not help and said they would have support contact me within 24 hours.

    My design time was today, not 24 hours from now.

    I use CC to desktop. 3.6.0.248 on a Mac under OS Lion 10.8.5 so I always use the apps from 2014. that absolutely worked awesomely and flawless until my renewed annual plan today! I pay a monthly automated, but my 'birthday' was today and so I got regular email "your membership is about to Expire" and then later I received an email confirmation of my payment. Even, I logged into my account to make sure that my credit card information was up to date and it is. My desktop CC reloaded app me recognized as the user too and had my correct account information and email addy in there when even I don't not re-connect in there when I recharged it. Adobe recognizes and accepts me and my account and my user.

    This isn't simply connecting my apps on my account or something like that.

    Does anyone have any other suggestions?

    THX!

    Claudia

    I called them again and this time the tech who responded to offered to help me. Less than 30 minutes on the phone with him and my problem is fixed and I can access all my apps!

    He said it was some corrupted files and he needed to access my computer, delete them, and it's all good now. Phew!

    I generally do not allow anyone access to my computer remotely, but as it was Adobe, I have confidence in them, so I let him do.

    You will need to install a (e.g. MS Outlook;) Windows Live Mail; Thunderbird) , and then set it as a default for mail in CUSTOM (<>) article in Set Program Access and defaults of the computer , then restart your computer before any function send to or MailTo will become available.

I ignored it and went to download a registry cleaner program to try to solve, but he also said "cannot access Windows Installer". Undertook research to install across the entire hard drive and the Windows registry and I found nothing. Not even the key MSIServer was there. I went to the Services and it was not there either. I opened my journal program, and he said that Microsoft Windows Installer has been deleted from the hard drive. The newspaper program that I use is open source and theres no script that writes, deletes, or replaces all files!
