OS X V10.7 Lion :: 10.7.4 In Software Update / 'don't Have Permission' / Cannot Run Combo Client
May 15, 2012Software Update says that 10.7.4 is available for download. I attempted to install it and type in all my usual password info, but the system says:'The update Mac OS X Update can't be saved. You don't have permission.'I then downloaded the combo client and attempted to run the package. It stated that 'The installation failed. The Installed can't create the folder "/var/folders/z7 etc.'Not exactly sure what is happening. I've tried repairing permissions, and it did not work. I am the only user on the account.

Mar 22, 2008I can't find anything else on here about this, but I've tried several external keyboards with my new MacBook Pro (including the latest Apple) and Command+Delete doesn't work with any of them. It works fine using the notebook keyboard. I've reset the key combos to default several times. Nothing. Other key combinations that I use all work. And the command key and delete key each work for other things.

Dec 7, 2009I have just now received my purchased 13.3 inch Macbook Pro model, with BTO 4Gigs RAM, and 250 HDD.
I opened the Macbook pro, and it worked just fine. First thing I did was to enable the WiFi, perform a software update, and update the system using Software Update with the combo update to Snow Leopard 10.6.2 (it was 10.6).
Immediately after performing the update and restarting, the computer crashed on startup 3-4 times, and still refuses to boot. It appears this is a kernel panic, with the first line saying "Panic Version mismatch between Kernel and CPU " and some other things like the version of the system and darwin, and the CPU model.
I booted from the DVD without problems, and performed a Disk Repair (which found no problems) and a repair permissions (which also found no errors).
Strange thing: When I selected the "startup disk" application I selected my internal HDD but it displayed 10.6 instead of the recently applied 10.6.2!!
Rebooting still crashes the computer, with the same kernel panic.
MacBook Pro :: Best 2 Drive Combo Setup And OS Strategies
Dec 10, 2009This is a re-formulated post about using a SSD for boot and apps and a HDD in the optical bay for storage of files. I still want to post it here due to the MacBook Pro specifics surrounding the drives. I am putting in a 160 for the SSD / boot, as it stands right now the drive will have not more than 60GB on it with my music, 13+ GB of mail archive and other files. The rest, movies, websites, photos and any other media will reside on the storage drive in the optical bay. Applications such as iView Media Pro and Mail Steward have safe mount / unmount behavior in terms of operations so those should be fine when the disk is unmounted. I expect to have both drives running most of the time unless is gets rough or I need juice for longer spans. What I am wondering is what strategies for keeping a smooth running combo of twin drives have people been using in terms of keeping as many files off the SDD but not corrupting the OS when reading a disk and then having it unmounted?
I know the "other" thread is a good source but it is 23 pages long at this point but enough people are doing this now that it will be a common question as some point and it is really only touched upon a few times in the other thread. I have used CCC to dupe my current data in 2 locations, so I am safe to muck around with this now. I would expect it to be fine to boot off of any one of the three drives to move the 60GB working set and OS onto the SSD. Should I use one of my external backups to do the initial boot and then re-boot out of the optical to set up the clone to the SSD? It kind of makes sense to me given the fact that the HDD with the native OS will have moved from one SATA location to the other. This just seems different to me than my desktop because this is a mobile device and the way power / drives and other little details interact is worth looking into.

OS X :: MacBook Wont Shutdown Or Restart After Combo Update

View 2 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Disable Combo Drive Through Open Firmware Console
Aug 27, 2009I have a mechanical fault with my combo drive (cdrw/dvd) in my Powerbook 12" 1.5 GHz running Leopard which makes it noisy even when there is no disk in there. Is it possible to disable the device by removing it from the device tree in Open Firmware before OS X boots? It sounds like the drive is checking for a disk. I am sure there is not a disk in there as it still accepts and ejects other disks. If it were to be removed from the device tree would this likely solve the problem, or would the power cable to the drive have to be physically disconnected?
View 4 Replies View RelatedMacBook :: Install Snow Leopard With Broken Combo Drive
May 16, 2010I've been searching but I can't find anywhere where my specific problem is answered. Short version: Does Remote Disc work in Tiger (10.4.11)? Long version: I have the following:
Macbook running 10.4.11; busted DVD drive
PC running Win7 w/ Firewire port
Snow Leopard install disc
I'd like to get Remote Disc running on my laptop and install over the network (using my Win7 PC). I've done the terminal hack which is supposed to enable Remote Disc on MacBooks. However, Remote disc doesn't show up in my finder (not sure that 10.4.11 has a place for it to show). Does Remote disc work with Tiger-Macbooks? Or do you need Leopard? If Remote Disc won't work, can a Win7 PC install Snow Leopard via firewire to a Mac? If possible, I'd like to avoid buying an external DVD drive, as it appears Remote Disc will work in Snow Leopard. Don't have a firewire cable on me but I could buy one -- just want to be sure it will work before I waste the money.
OS X :: A OS X 10.5.5 Combo Update?
Dec 14, 2008Right after I ran the 10.5.5 Combo update my computer went haywire. I'm getting random -50 errors left and right. All kinds of stablility problems are showing up. I can't make folders. I can't copy and paste. I tried to download something from safari and it said I didn't have enough disk space even though I have over 250GB free. Then when I try to restart I spun on the grey screen for hours. Tried to reinstall the OS from the disk and it failed. Lost a lot of files. I switched users and my external HDs unmounted and couldn't come back. It's gotta be the update right? I heard of about 4 other people who use their computers in completely different fashions who all had the same or close variations to these problems when they installed the new updates.
Anyone experiencing this or am I crazy?

OS X :: Reinstall 10.6.2 Combo Update On Top Of 10.6.2?
Mar 22, 2010I've been having some issues with Mail (long story- anything after an image or an attachment in a message I create is showing up as a .htm or .txt file) and one suggestion that someone made was to download the 10.6.2 combo update and try to reinstall it to ensure that everything is all up to snuff.
Strangely, when I DL'd the combo update and tried to run it, my hard drive showed up with an exclamation mark and said I couldn't install it. Can one typically install the update on itself?
Also, is there any chance in heck that it will actually make a difference (friendly wagers here are fine, as I don't expect anyone to know for sure)?

Dec 2, 2010Have a G4 desktop running 10.3.5 that I tried to combo update to 10.3.9. The update was stuck at 30% for a long long time. I just figured it might take awhile and took a nap. I awoke and there was an error message that the update could not be completed. It said to try the update again by downloading it and then opening the package manually. So I was going to do that but a bit later the computer froze up and I had to force shutdown.
Upon booting the screen didn't boot all the way; only partially and then screen goes black. I ran Disk Utility from Install Disk to try to Repair the hard drive. It said keys were out of order. Later it said repair couldn't be completed because of an error.
I am running the Mac now from a Firewire drive with 10.3.2. I want to update the Firewire drive to 10.3.9 and want to make sure the same thing doesn't happen.

OS X :: OS X 10.5.6 / Combo Update Install Failed
Dec 23, 2008I'm installing 10.5.6 on the family MacBook (white) and it was running 10.5.4 previously, yet hanged when I was updating everything (there was a few updates) so I had to force power off. The Mac says it is running 10.5.6, but I wanted to apply the combo update to be safe. However, it fails when installing (it doesn't get to the stage where it reboots, still in OS X at this stage). It says "The installer could not install some files in "/". Also, repairing Disk Permissions failed too. Prior to the update, everything was working fine - I'm usually full of ideas, but when it is your Mac that is playing up I'm very keen to hear what others have to say.
