Three Thoughts:
A. Try it in Safe Mode.
When you boot in Safe Mode, login items do not open at log in, certain preferences are set aside, and damaged system files (i.e. caches) are fixed. To boot up in Safe Mode [Hold Down: the shift key upon boot].
B. Use a New Admin User:
Create a new administrator for temporary user, and see if you can install with that user. Once all is installed, login to the normal user, and delete this user you just created for the install.
C. Network Options:
If you are on your own network, then restart your router (power off the router for 30 seconds, and then power it pack on). If you are on a public LAN, then try another network.
