Zinio reader 4 installation fails, this application need Adobe AIR.
Adode AIR Version 3.1 fails to install (Feb 1,2012). I get the same error message as the original poster showed at the start of this post.
New out of the box Mac Book Pro with a SSD running Mac OSX 10.7 (Lion) and the zinio reader4 is my first downloaded app attempt.
I haven’t tried the above mention “fixes or work around” yet. Because I’m not a computer mechanic and don’t under stand how and what their talking about. My old PPC base Mac using Mac OSX 10.6 never showed me such a bazzar intallation failure. I hope this new Itel processor dosen’t bring with it all the PC problems that why I use a Mac to get away from computer problems.
I see this post started in 2008 its now 2012 and people like me are still are not able to do an one click isnstall of Adbbe AIR.
This means one thing to me, Abobe can’t fix this known problem with their app.
I also blame Zinio for foolishly relying on a 3 party app (AIR) engine to drive their readers functionality.
Looks like Abobe will be putting Zinio out of business, too bad I like receiving digital magazines.

After a reboot or two, has Muse and AIR stopped working. And this fix doesn’t work either anymore.

This didn’t fix my problem either, but for some reason when I downloaded the air-installer from this website: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24406/adobe-air, the installation worked..

you are my hero, thank you so much!

for those who still have problems: after you did what he suggests, try to restart the system and then re-download the applications, it didn’t work for me either until I did this.

I am running Ubuntu, and had a similar problem (couldn’t install air files using an install badge, I always got “An error occured”…).
I followed this advice and went to System -> Preferences->Keyboard->Layout, changed something (then changes it back), and now the installs run without errors. Very wired…
