Every time i run a software update it would check for new software and load up to 75% then just stop. I have been having this trouble for about a month now and I ran it for 3 hours once and it still didn't gain anything.

I have problems since applying the latest security Update 2009-001 and Java 10.5 Update 3, I have 10.5.6 on the new unibody 2.4ghz and have completely lost the ability to connect to my wireless access point which is an apple airport extreme base station.
I can sometimes se the base station but cannot connect to it and sometimes cannot see it at all. I have three other apple computers at home all less then a year old running the same build of 10.5.6 but have not updated them and they all are fine.
This one was perfect untill I applied the update.
The machine I am having problems with is partitioned with windows 7 beta on it which has no problems connecting to the base station, which indicates that its not a hardware problem but more then likely the update which is causing the problem.
Is there a way to uninstall the last update or delete it? Any one with a similar problem or know how I can fix it, I have googled but cannot seem to find anyone with similar problems.
Why 10.5.6 is still not showing on my software update?? yet?

"A network error has occurred. Check your Internet connection, and then try again."
This has been happening for over a week now. Looking at the Console I get the error:
"4/10/12 8:03:54.398 AM Software Update: Error: The operation couldn’t be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -3001.) (NSURLErrorDomain code -3001)"
I've verified and repiared disk permissions a couple of times and restarted the system with no success.

hey i have a mac 10.4.11 and i cant updat it it says there are no further updates please help..
Info:

Just fired up 10.5.4 and installed it. Safari is now 3.1.2 (but I upgraded to the 4.0 beta).
So, any changes wrt fans, temps and core shutdowns?
When I try and use software update, it will display "checking for new software" and go about 80% of the way in the bar, then freeze. The bar stops animating, I get a spinning wheel when I mouse over it, etc.
I also cannot force quit software update when it does this, and not even "killing" the application does anything. It also hangs on shutdown, so if I want it to go away, I have to do a hard reboot.
I decided to download the 10.5.7 combo updater, and use that.
So I did.
However, the combo updater hangs at "configuring installation" for over an hour. I can force quit that, however.
I don't know much about mac troubleshooting, I have repaired my disk permissions plenty of times, and also ran verify disk, and it believes the disk is fine.
My internet connection works fine but when I try to do a software update, it fails and gives me an error. Same with Quicktime when I try to watch the presentation.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running an intel iMac Core 2 Duo from a few months back. I installed the most recent security update for Mac OS X Leopard and after the reboot the computer worked fine for 2 more boots.
(Note: during these boots I noticed that often my computer would get the spinning rainbow wheel for a long time before it went away. It happened at apparently no prompting.)
After those I installed the game City of Heroes on my macintosh and then attempted to install the new safari and Java update (I haven't updated in a while.)
I was told the Java update and safari update failed to install. I rebooted to try again and attempted to install again. Both failed.
I gave up and started playing CoH. About 2 hours after playing my game froze. I was running ventrillo at the same time and was able to talk on that.
After many failed tries to use command + option + escape I decided to hold down the power button to reboot my computer. The first attempt yielded a solid blue screen.
The second attempt the computer started fully. Stupidly I assumed the problem was fixed and didn't backup software and files.
I tried to run City of Heroes again and the app would not even show up in dock. It simply would not run. All other apps seemed to work fine.
I rebooted again and this time I got another blue screen. Again, but this time I got the grey screen with the apple symbol and the spinning wheel. I've never gotten past this screen again.
I have boot camp so I tried to boot into windows. Windows booting was successful. After that I rebooted and attempted to use the advice from this thread for help: [URl] I tried the single user mode fix first. I got the message:
/dev/rdisk0s2

Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.

Rebuilding Catalog B-Tree.
The volume Ben's Computer could not be repaired.
FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED
After that I tried to reset PRAM. Still the grey apple with the spinning wheel. I tried the single user start up again. Again failed.
After that I tried booting into safe mode. Using these steps: [URL] Unfortunately, NONE of these ways would let me boot into safe mode. Both left me at the same grey apple icon and spinning grey wheel.
I would appreciate help SO much. Even if the only fix is to get a new computer any advice would help me. If I need to somehow reformat or such then if anyone might know how I could backup my settings and applications with this impediment.
I ran software update, and it stated 10.6.3 was available. I went to download it and it said it wasn't able to, I then refreshed and it was gone.

The problem: Safari pretty much works fine, except for a couple of websites, like Apple's One-to-One page and Netflix.
When I attempt to sign in on 1-to-1, an error message tells me to update Safari 3.0 and install it. The same happens with netflix - instant watch.
My Mac is fully update with Snow Leopard and the latest Safari (v 4.0.5). To make it even more weird, I get the same message when using FireFox.

I am suddenly unable to log in to First Direct - I put in my user name and it simply refreshes the page asking me to input it again. It was fine earlier today before I updated. I phoned and they said there was no problem. I used my partner's Mac (with 10.5.5) and, sure enough, it's fine on there. Yet again, a software update solves a bunch of problems and then creates a few more.
View 11 Replies View RelatedWhen given a video card update (esp from using windows) it almost always improves the video card. Apple releases the flicker fix update and I don't have a flicker issue. No screen issues at all really.
I feel like it's Russian roulette. Update or not? I know some people will say don't fix what ain't broke, but what exactly is IN the fix? Is it exclusively for the flicker issue or does it update/upgrade other aspects on the card? Mine has the ATI card in it.
I use a 1920x1200 display on my mac mini, 1.66 GHz Core Duo, first revision.
After the update it seems like the mac tries to tread the monitor as if it were a tv.
In the display settings 1920x1080 is the highest resolution available, only framerates of 50 Hz (PAL) and 60 Hz (ntsc) is available (equal to what resolution you set the system).
On the display the desktop is shrinked down to about 90% of display size and has a slight error in aspect (circles are no circles anymore). Also the color profiles are terribly misinterprated, gamma is wrong and everything is overly colored as if it were windows.

I recently purchased a Macbook Air 11" (July 2011 model) which came preinstalled with Lion (can't remember the version) and iLife 11.
On my first boot I noticed that the Mac App Store popped up a few updates and one of the updates was iPhoto 9.2.3. When I attempted to install the update, I was prompted to first update my Mac OS as the update was not applicable to my (then) Mac OS version.
I promptly updated my Lion version to 10.7.3 through Software Updates and attempted the iPhoto update again - nada! Mac App Store now says: "This update is not available", "You Must have previously purchased this item ..." and then prompts me to 'buy' the item (iPhoto 11?).
I haven't clicked on the 'buy' button in the fear of being charged to my linked Apple ID account and I am wondering why I am supposed to buy iPhoto when my MBA came preinstalled with iLife 11.

I want to update my Xcode from 4.2 to 4.3.2 but I am unable to download the update. When I tried to do this for the first time, the the button "installieren" was green and I was asked first for my Apple-ID. Then it seemed to start the download, but I was asked to read and accept the license first. Since I accepted it, the button is grey. I also tried to move the "Install Xcode.app" from my Applications folder. No help. Do I really need to uninstall everything first, to update?

I have a iMac using 10.5.8. and a laptop using 10.4. I don't print all the time (once or twice a month for invoicing) so I'm not sure when my printing failed. Had to be sometime after my Airport Extreme or OS updated in the last month. My printer is a Canon Pixma 780. I'm unable to print from either computer now. I've updated printfab, tried uninstalling, reinstalling printer, unplugged printer from my Airport Extreme, restarted computer and printer. I'm at a complete loss.
