Nokia QT Creator project, Error installing Qjson.sis - symbian

I am trying to run up an app in release mode on my Nokia N8. When it builds the phones asks me if i want to install it. i press yes and install it to the mass memory. This happens with out a hitch. Then it asks me to install Qjson.sis i choose the same mass memory drive and then it starts to install. This is when i get a message that reads "Update Error"
this happens when i install it to both the mass memory and the system memory. Any suggestions? im running win7 with the latest qt creator. The N8 is running PR1.0 not the newer PR1.1

The most likely answer is that the QJSON executable (.dll) is already installed on the device, but under a different package and/or UID.
Best way to get around this is to re-build QJSON with a different UID, and ensure the new UID is appended to the executable name (e.g. qjson_0x20030000.dll). In this way you can avoid update errors.

GitHub asks me to "add a new helper tool" every time I open it

Every time I open GitHub for Mac it asks me to "add a new helper tool" and prompts me for my password. Every time I enter my password (I am an admin on this computer) but I see no noticeable changes afterwards and the prompt comes back every time I reopen GitHub. (See attached photo for the prompt window.)
I am running OSX Yosemite Version 10.10 on a Late 2012 Mac Mini (2.5 GHz Intel Core i5).
Unsure if this is related but I am running GitHub version "Reactive Barbecue (186)". According to the GitHub for Mac release notes this is NOT the newest version, but when I select "Check for updates" it says I have the latest version. Would a fresh install of GitHub solve this? This is more of a nuisance and doesn't noticeably impede my work.
I use GitHub daily for XCode pushes with my coworkers. They all use MacBook Airs and OSX Yosemite but do not have the same issue as me.
I was also having this problem.
Cause? Maybe GitHub.app was confused by multiple git installations: XCode's Command Line Tools and Homebrew's copy (a newer version and includes bash completion).
Running the shell command git credential-osxkeychain returned a "usage" line, so a helper was installed despite that message.
Fix: Downloading and running GitHub Desktop successfully installed its helper. I think GitHub Desktop.app is the new name for GitHub.app, so apparently they fixed the bug by now.
BTW: They wrote "If you're using GitHub for Mac or Windows, the upgrade is automatic.", but their automatic upgrade didn't fix this problem nor switch to "GitHub Desktop.app".
The only solution I found so far was to delete the GitHub for Mac application. Then I re-downloaded the app (the most recent version 193 "Big Feels").
It then gave me a popup saying I needed to uninstall the old version since OSX now comes with Git commands by default (or something like that?). Clicking "Uninstall now" made the app crash so I had to select "Uninstall later". This is sort of only a fix for the symptom since GitHub could keep telling me to uninstall every time I open it, but at least it says I have the most recent version now.
Use AppCleaner and nuke it. Reinstall.

Processing affects current directory of Arduino environment

I have my processing code in dev/processing and my Arduino code put itself in Documents/Arduino.
However, whenever I get into one environment, it changes the most recent directory for the other because Arduino is written in processing.
Is there any quick way to disconnect the two environments so that they don't use the same location for "most recent directory?" I don't know whether the mechanism is a file, a registry entry or what, but I'm on Windows 8.1
I am using both Arduino IDE as well as Processing 2.1.2 in Windows 7 environment. It doesn't change the directory.
Since you are using Windows 8.1 (which is recently released), you may face very weird problems as those softwares are not tested on those OS. You will find errors for even other softwares that are designed before Windows 8.

WixUI_Advanced fails ACK for per-user test

I am creating an desktop app MSI that using WixUI_Advanced for dual scope support. However the production MSI causes a warning on Windows App Certification Kit:
WARNING Install to Program Files
* Warning: The install to Program Files test detected the following errors:
* Program xxxx fails due to install location C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Apps\XXX
I was confused. The ACK being used is the Version 2.2, and the warning message shows the CORRECT behavior of a per-user installer (since install to Program Files requires privilege). But why it shows the warning? Are there any body have the same problem?
UPDATE
It seems like a bug of WixUI_Advanced. According to this article, the redirected folder name for per-user install is %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\XXX rather than %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Apps\XXX.
Even you set the install location to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\XXX the same warning still shows, the same thing happens for ACK version 3.0 (for Windows 8.1) as well.
Furthermore, when doing an x64 per-user test it also warns for the uninstall registry keys. There is no way to set those keys in other ways.
Microsoft confirmed this warning is ignorable and will not affect the certification result, but they did not say anything about weather it is a bug or not, not saying any plan to fix either.

Debugging Adobe AIR apps on Kindle Fire

Possible?
I think to do this I need to upgrade the AIR runtime on the Fire to 3, but the version in the app store won't install. I can't create an AIR apk that is both captive runtime and debug that I know of, so the debug version of the app has to run on the AIR runtime installed. Since the Fire comes with 2.7, 3.x apps won't run in debug mode.
Has anyone managed to get AIR 3 running on a Fire without using captive runtime?
To update AIR on your KF you have to get root privileges. Also keep in mind that android build on KF doesn't have any copy command (it cut off). So the best way I found is to flash your KF with modified (pre-rooted) stock version and then install new air.
Get pre-rooted stock version (I took it here). IMPORTANT: it installs via TWRP, google how to install TWRP on KF.
Put downloaded .zip and air_runtime.apk (latest AIR version) in the root of KF.
Reboot in Recovery mode (TWRP should load)
Flash this version.
On your PC open cmd and run "adb shell" (make sure you see your device in list when run "adb devices" otherwise check drivers).
Run "su" (if you downloaded secure version).
In shell go to sdcard ("ls" to get list of files/folders and "cd folder_name" to get into) and run "install air_runtime.apk /system/app/air_runtime.apk" (I think you can just run "install /sdcard/folder_with_air/air_runtime.apk /system/app/air_runtime.apk").
(7a. If it tells you that can't install because of file already exist, run the following two commands: "mount -o remount rw /system" (mount 'system' with read/write rights) and "mv /system/app/air_runtime.apk /system/app/air_runtime.bak" (rename air_runtime.apk into air_runtime.bak). Then repeat step 7.)
In KF just run (install) air_runtime.apk (use any file explorer, e.g. download ES File Explorer from Amazon).
Check AIR version in Applications.
That's all. Looks a bit complex, but in real it takes about 4-5 mins for me to update AIR (BUT I have TWRP already installed).
Hope it helps.
UPD. After your Kindle updates itself (version 6.3.1 currently the latest) you'll lose you SU privileges. AIR also will be rolled back to 2.7. You can prevent KF auto-updates (search on xda how to do it) or flash actual pre-rooted version (it gives you several months without problems).
