Cannot open AutoCad

I succesfully dowloaded the student version of AutoCad earlier today and a a few hours later, my 6 year brother somehow messed something up.  So, I went ahead and re-downloaded AutoCad.  I open up the download, click"Install Autodesk AutoCAd 2014 for Mac.pkg." Then I clicked continue once this appears: "This package will run a program to determine if the software can be installed." Then a pop-up appears saying "Active Autodesk 360 instance detected!" This only allowing me to close the pop-up.  So I went through finder and deleted what I think is everything having to do with AutoCad, and continued to try to get it to work, it sadly didn't. What do I do now?

Welcome to the Autodesk Forums!

 

Hi,

You need to quit Autodesk 360 application.

Look at Mac OS menu bar (right side):

Than try to run AutoCAD installer again.
