Google Drive Installation Error press Console or Terminate

I am running Mac OS X 10.9.4 and every time I install and open the file from application I get the following error - User uploaded file

I have uninstalled, run Disk Utility, repaired permission, updated Flash and Java. I'm not sure what the problem is - Please help.

If you open Console, do you see any error messages related to Google Drive?


Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account and do the installation there. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Eric,


Thank you for your response. I tried booting in safe mode and it still did not work. Below are the results from Console after the safe boot:

I hope this sheds some light.
