Team,
Thanks in advanced for your assitance, I-ve searched for a couple of days now and I can not find an answer.
Several modules such as Enterprice FAQ, Views Bulk Operations, etc, require Entity module , it shows Entity (missing), I try to install the Entity API, but it tells me that Entity has already been installed, I just upgrated my Drupal core to the latest version, and didnpt solve the problem, any suggestions are highly appreciated?

What tells you? how you are trying to install?
Entity API Installation
1.- go to the drupal module site to get the module link
http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/entity-7.x-1.5.zip (Entity API)
2.- On Drupal as administrator-- >Modules--> Install New Module -->
3.- Paste the URL and hit Install
4.- I get "Entity API is already Installed"
5.- go to the modules List and Still see "Entity (missing)" on the modules that require it.
Thanks in advanced

in the system table of the database is the entity module listed? if so; how many times is it listed and what is its status?
Entity status
It is listed only one time
On the system table:
File name: profiles/openenterprise/modules/entity/entity.module
Name: entity
Status: 0
Bootstrap:0

the status is 0 thus disabled.
I'd backup the folder, and remove it from the server.
to what folder is the update manager trying to install it?
are you sure there isn't a second copy in sites/all/modules?
Folder entity
I have 3 folders named entity
I would assume that I don't care about the 1st one, for the other 2 should I just rename the folders and reinstall the API again?
/home/administrador/drupal-7.26-0/php/tmp/update-extraction-82f1d460/entity
/home/administrador/drupal-7.26-0/apps/drupal/htdocs/sites/all/modules/entity
/home/administrador/drupal-7.26-0/apps/drupal/htdocs/profiles/openenterprise/modules/entity
Not sure on which folder are the modules being installed.

Thus you have two versions in your file system. my assumption is that the one in sites/all/modules is the newest version. As such the one that shipped with the install profile should be removed. Backup before doing anything. I've never used an install profile and have no idea how it will react when that module is removed.
personally, I'd avoid using the admin ui to upload and install modules. I'd upload with FTP and enable in the ui.
Removed the older one, and
Removed the older one, and left the one in sites/all/mpdules, and norhing changed, so I was wondering If I need to change on the database the status value to 1, or how to proceed , since I still can see Entity (missing).
or should I remove the other folder, I mean the one in sites/all/mpdules and try to reinstall it again ( still don't know how to change the database sattus to 1?)
I restarted all services ( database and webserver) , just in case, and still Entity (Missing)
Delete them all. Clear your
Delete them all. Clear your cache. Download a new version to your sites/all/modules folder. Clear your cache again. Install the module if it's not installed.
Contact me to contract me for D7 -> D10/11 migrations.
It did the trick
Cleared cache, reinstalled the API, and it worked , thanks dude....
