Desktop app won't install - installer just closes during the installation process

I download the installer.  It asks if the app has my permission to be installed.  I say yes.  It runs and looks fine with the bar moving across and everything and then it just closes.

    Did you already have Dropbox installed? If so that is what usually happens if its an update.

it showed dropbox in the application applications, but as I said, it wasn’t loaded. I uninstalled what was there. I downloaded the off-line installation and that !  Thanks very much to everyone for your suggestions
