For the InstallShield problem: what version of Wine are you using? If it's not the latest development release, upgrade. There were some problems with InstallShield a few versions ago that have been fixed. For the second problem: what app is this? Post terminal output. Make sure you cd to the program directory before trying to run it. Apps can fail to run for lots of reasons; don't assume this problem has anything to do with the location of the wineprefix.
