Intel Mac :: Software Updates Does Not Recognize New Updates?
Jun 19, 2012
I am trying to install the new updates for Aperture and iPhoto. When I tell software updates to check for updates, it tells me all my software is current. I know there is a new version of Aperture and iPhoto because I installed them two days ago on a different computer.
When I check for software updates only itunes and random other updates show up but not security updates or safari update. When i check installed updates I realized my last security update was 2011-004 and I still have safari 5.0.6.
I manage a lot of WordPress sites, and during the rare occasion I move a site from one server to another, requiring a change of DNS numbers, I find that my MacBook Air, iPhone and iPad will see the change in a browser almost instantly yet my iMac may not see the change until as much as 24 hours later. I have cleared browser caches with no joy. Everything is running from the same WiFi router. So, what's the issue with the iMac. Is there a cache in the iMac airport that needs to be cleared?Â
So a while back I had final cut pro installed, and eventually deleted cause I no longer needed it. I used AppCleaner when removing to try and make sure I got it all.
Well every time I do a software update it wants to install "Pro Applications Update" and "Prokit Updates" Which are updates for final cut pro and its related apps.
Any idea how I can stop it from wanting me to install these updates for something I no longer have?
I recently updated my Apple ID but when I attempt to update my apps on the iPad, the app store keeps asking for the password for an older ID.The former IDwas used when I purchased most of the apps but that shouldn't matter, should it?How can I remedy this? PS I did enter the new ID and password into the iPad.
I can't get the Firmware updates or any other software updates.I have an old MacBook (2006) which doesn't have an intel chip! and it keeps saying this: The Installer could not validate the contents of the CoreFP package.
My updates of Flashplayer and Silverlight are not working. They worked as of yesterday morning, but by afternoon said I needed to update both, and now it is not allowing me to watch any type of videos/media on internet.
iMac was purchased in Dec (version 10.7.3 operating). Yesterday I installed Adobe Suite and today I went to open Photoshop and it says I need Javatime, I click to install and it says "software update quit unexpectedly". I tried updating version in iTunes and same thing happened. In numerous applications it will not allow updates. Â
I assume something in the software became corrupt with installing the Adobe Suite. Â

Imac core 2 duo running snow leopard 10.6.8. Tells me about uploads (airport, java and itunes, I think), then downloads, then cannot install due to "unknown error". Always. Even if I try one at a time.
It seems that I cannot download Application Updates or even new Applications from the Web using Safari.I have been able to get around this by using Firefox to do it.
When I try to run software updates, the updater progress bar starts, and the software updates window appears in the background, but after about 2-3 minutes both the progress bar and the software updates window disappear. This also happens when I try and update iTunes.

I cannot get any software updates to work on my new imac. The .dmg files do not work due to a warning coming up and the reason being "invalid checksum".
Post updates for some applications other than Aperture it now won't properly export RAW. Get a 'no longer support AWR files message. Do I need to reset something in 'Preferences'? In addition some of the 'view' selections would not respond until a restart, after which the same message occured. Need info as to why RAW will not export (tried to get to the desktop, a burn folder anything with 19 photos unedited).
Where I can find driver updates for my ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT? How can I check to see what driver version I have? I am running 10.6.8. 2x2.8 Ghz Quad Core Intel Xeon.
I need to update my itunes in order for it to recognize my iPhone as a device. To update my itunes I need the new OS X version. I click the apple icon on the upper left of my screen and click "software update." It searches for software updates, but it concludes that there are no updates available. Any clue why I can't update this Mac?Â

A couple of days ago I checked for updates for my Lion - I was in particular looking for the Java update to fix the recently reported security issue - and selected 2 items including the Java update for downloading. I checked the size of the items and they added up to be less than 200MB in total. But as soon as the downloading started, the total size suddenly became 1.4G!!! There was no obvious way for me to check exactly what I was downloading and de-select any unwanted updates. I didn't want to stop the downloading because I did want to make sure I have the Java update.

my macbook pro (late 2011) is powering down without warning. I'll be writing an email and w/o warning, it's off. I'm unable to turn it back on with the power button unless i hold it down for a slow count to 10. Fyi - machine is 100% charged when this happens. Two days ago, I did SMC and PRC resets with Apple Care. I needed to do both of these again yesterday on my own.
i am facing below probelm on my mac ... i have done all the ip setting on my mac Error is software update can't check for updates because of a network problem mac.
I can't open my iPhoto because I downloaded OS X months ago. I am sick of the App Store icon showing I have two updates - iPhone and iMovie - that I can NOT update. Also I am blocked from getting into iPhoto to boot!!!! Here's what's on the screen when I try to update these programs.Â
Update Unavailable with this apple ID. This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.  I purchased this computer and did not return, cancel, or refund one thing in it. We could not complete your request.There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (null) how I contact the App Store?
My epson workforce 845 printer stopped printing. When I go to print it says printer in use. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers. I still have error.Â
My imac will not shut off/restart or let me download the new updates because it says I have to quit the TextEdit first, but it will not let quit it. When I open up the TextEdit the Quit option is in a faded black/Grey color and does not do anything when I click on it.
iMac 10.9.4 software updates last week is apparent cause of my Corel Painter X3 now crashing. I ran Disk Utility check - no probs there. I reinstalled Painter X3 (after first uninstalling X3), still no success.
