Pgm Won't Install on iMac G4
posted on 2005-01-04 02:21 PM

I am looking for help in installing Maestro on an iMac G4 1.25Ghz with 1GB of RAM. The installer keeps telling me that “You are not allowed to install the software in the default location on the volume “iMac HD". Check with the administrator of your computer". I AM the admin & the ONLY user on the computer. I was able to successfully install the Java 3D update without any problems. Anyone have any ideas what is going wrong? The program installed & is running just fine on a Windows box I have.

Install it using your root account and if you havent made one yet , make one, the Admin doesnt have all the privileges as a regular root account does, i had no problems installing it on my G4 iBook, this should fix your problem, I only use root for certain functions like installing so be careful, dont use it as a regular account, hope this helps
