I too get an error. My computer says: "something went wrong trying to install this application. Please install the latest version of Adobe AIR from .....and then try again" I am running vista and have another program running on AIR so I know that I do have the latest version of Adobe AIR installed.

I have however uninstalled and reinstalled several times with no luck. I am suspecting this is a Vista or AIR error more than a Twhirl error but I still need your help.. So pleeEaase

I've tried everything on this page- manually deleting app, deleting Air, reg cleaning, searching my HD for anything with "twhirl" in the name and deleting it, rebooting- still getting the "The application could not be installed. Try installing it again. If the problem persists, contact the application author. Error 3003." Help!

Inappropriate Link Found In Magnolia Wiki

There is a section in the Magnolia Wiki FAQ that has a link that leads to an adult blog with female genitalia. I highly recommend that you remove that link ASAP.

Stephen Robinson shared an idea in Seesmic on May 26, 2008 00:08:

Compiled Timeline

My idea for an improvement to Seesmic is a Compiled Timeline. Rather than the conversations being spread out throughout a timeline, there can be a compiled timeline where each conversation is complied together, nice and organized. So up to 8 conversations can be displayed on a single page on the Compiled Timeline.

Thank you
Stephen

Thanks for your reply, I found a solution, weird though it may be. I am using XP Pro btw. Instead of deleting the old directory, I re-named it to Twhirl-old and then installed Twhirl which installed in a new default Twhirl directory location and it was succesful.

There must be some remnants left in the deleted directory that get overwritten along with the error.

annoyed,
I am really sorry for your frustrations and don't feel "duh, uninstall and reinstall" is an appropriate answer either. I'll have to get my hands on a vista install to test for the issue you are seeing. It would really help if you could share a screen shot of the error either here or at Thomas at seesmic dot com.

I do know that some programs will corrupt the registry files of another program, even though that was not the intentions. Especially if both programs share another program to assist in the operation of those programs. If you removed all traces of Twhirl, and still get an error message, than there is a problem in your registry. I would suggest a good registry cleaner.

Me personally, I'm not having any problems with Twhirl or AIR, at all. But than again, I'm not trying the share AIR with other programs at the same time. I do have a good registry cleaner, and I do use it quite often to keep my registry clean of corrupt or invalid files. Perhaps that could be the reason why I'm not having any problems with Twhirl.

In my own personal opinion, if Twhirl did have a glitch or bug in the app, I'm sure there would be a lot more people complaining about this.

your suggestions are of the "Duh" variety. Let's pretend that we are not idiots and let's try to look at this as a "Real" problem. Air works fine and is not the problem. Twhirl however is the problem, you can clean and wipe out all traces of Twhirl from the system and there is still an error message.

Alert Thingy is an Air Program and it installed just fine. If you want to write an app, try to at least look into support solutions that may be a bit more than "Duh, erase it and re-install it"

You can post your problem as a new topic, to get more responses,
but you're probably just going to get the same advice, only for a Mac.
