Error Installing Flash MX 2004 by zaher1988 on 08-09-2005 at 11:05 AM

Hey when trying to install falsh mx 2004, or it's update i get this error message shown in the attachement.

It says a parameter is incorrect.

I tried before to ask InstallShield support team but without any solution they asked me to update the Kernel or the program i dont remember, and that's what i did. but i still face the same error

thanks in advance

Where did you acquire the Macromedia Flash MX 2004 Installer, because it usually comes with an entire package, "MX", which is dreamweaver etc. If you downloaded the installer, then it is probably corrupt, or there is a file that is necessary for the installation to work missing.

Yes -  It would seem the instalation support file is lacking.

I am unaware of where you aquired this file, but it to me looks like a CD copy, as they tend to be the non-selfcontained packages, where some external files missing.

It could also be InstallShield which I guess you could check for updates for.

Well no i had the file for the macromedia site, and i used it on another pc it worked but on mine it didn't .

That's a updater, not a whole install AFAIK.


RE: Error Installing Flash MX 2004 by zaher1988 on 08-10-2005 at 03:13 PM

Well i know that Vilkku but the same thing is wrong with the full installation also :):D

Reminder: Any reply pls

Try redownloading and also try looking for an update to InstallShield. You say it worked fine on another computer, but that may have a different verson of operating system or something.

Edit: You could also uninstall the old Flash and install MX (not with the updater though! but with a full download).


(Also watch out for double posting ;)).

ok Kipper2258 as i said in the begining of the post , i have contacted install shield support and they asked me to update the software and that's what i did, also the other pc has the same version of windows xp :), and i also removed the flash mx and couldn't install it, so i copied the files from the other pc in order to continue using the flash:)

and hey kipper for the double post dont worry about it, u can see that all my old post are being edited and not double posted, but if u know that if u edit a post it doesn't appear in the top list, so people can recognize it. until u post a new reply, so that's why i double post it.:) !!! dont be fast in judgment man

I know perfectly well why you did it, but it is still against the rules, if someone could have helped they would have:

But I accept why you felt the need to use, since someone else may be online who hasn't yet seen it. But try a redownload I suggest.

It's not judgement, it's the forum rules. :)
RE: Error Installing Flash MX 2004 by zaher1988 on 08-11-2005 at 12:36 PM

but kipper2258 i used downloaded copies, and other copies i had on CDs. same all these worked perfectly on the other pc.


Edited: i know that guys, i know it's the rules, but then make it when we edit a post to appear like it was replied, i mean to appear in the beggining, coz if no one recognized the post, and then after 2 days u find no one replied, what would u do, edit it ? it wont appear in the 1st page. got what i mean guys, so now i will post a suggestion in the forum section about that.

Well there arn't many possibilities left for a solution then are there, since you seem to have eradicated all possible options. No offence, but it seems everyone is fresh out of ideas, and that may be why you didn't get any more replies before your double post.
RE: Error Installing Flash MX 2004 by zaher1988 on 08-11-2005 at 12:46 PM

hehehe u want me to laugh kipper2258, the double post was before running of the fresh ideas

and btw it's not our main subject here, we're talking about flash mx not double posting :) ;)

It is relevent because you broke the rules. And there have been no fresh ideas, I have only repeated to you what has been said before.

Do u know something  Kipper !! i think this only will work after formatting the PC.
