Applications won't launch after restore from dmg file

Hi,

I have setup a new iMac with latest Software updates and have installed Microsoft Office 2011 and Final Cut Pro. I then used Disk Utility to create an image (dmg file) of the iMac, this image I stored on an External Hard Disk. I then connected the Ext HD to another same spec. iMac, booted it from the OSX install disk, launched Disk Utility and restored the image to the other Mac.


The restore completed okay, rebooted the Mac off the internal HD. I renamed this machine and then bound it into Active Directory. Now no matter who I log on as, whether local administrator or Windows user, when I try and launch an Office application or Final Cut Pro, I get a message stating, "The (application name) installation did not complete successfully because there was a problem with the installer."

The application then does not launch.


Does anyone have any ideas as to why this may have occurred?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.7)
