How do I find out if other firefox copies are running? The software update keeps saying it won't install because I need to check if other copies are running.

The update popped up, I clicked to install and it keeps popping up when I open Firefox that it cannot install because I need to check and see if other firefox copies are running. I do not know how to do that and why wouldn't firefox be able to tell if other copies are running and tell me how to delete them if that is what is necessary

Do a clean (re-)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Do not remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

MacBook Pro Software Update Results in Singlu-User Mode

Hello,
Since I have had problems before with Software update, I have decided to install one item at a time to find out which update packages cause problems.
When I installed the latest "MacBook Pro Software Update", which is strongly recommended, I ended up getting stuck with the single-user mode and now I cannot get out. When I boot, I get a console instead of a Graphical User Interface. I am really tired of Tiger. I have used Linux for the past 9 years and found it to be excellent. I expected much more from Mac OS X when I first bought my system two weeks ago. I already did an "Archive and Reinstall" and I don't want to do it again.
How can I go back to the usual GUI environment?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
K.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
K.

Hello,
Here is the solution to the problem. It is simply due to XCode installation. For some reason, one needs to perform the "MacBook Pro Software Update 1.0" after an "Archive + Install" before installing any other software.
If Xcode is installed before the update, something gets messed and the computer keeps booting to a Console instead of the GUI.
Hope this helps to others,
K.

Motion crashes - Macbook Pro Software update and Firmware update

Anyone out there that is working with Motion 3.0.1 on one of the new Macbook Pros (Santa Rosa) and has installed both the Macbook Pro Software Update 1.0 and the EFI Firmware update (for the 15 inch models)???
Motion 3 crashes on the Macbook Pros with the MBP Software update installed (see thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1028746&tstart=45
The solution so far is to wipe the hard drive and reinstall everything from scratch EXCEPT the software update 1.0. However, I'm trying to find out if anyone has installed the Firmware update, which requires the software update to be installed first, and if they are running smoothly.
???

I just restarted then tried to open InDesign again and it let me download a java update that seems to have fixed it.

I also saw that it was up online but without any information as to what it's updating I'm holding off. My MBP is working fine and I'll let those who want to be on the bleeding edge d/l and try it before I opt for it.
I wish apple posted what the update is doing on these things instead of just saying its recommended. Its not like I need to know what line # is being updated within a given module, but rather that's fixing this issue, or that issue.

Apple MacBook/Pro Software Update 1.0?

On versiontracker.com, there is an update called Apple MacBook/Pro Software Update 1.0. The desciption says:
"This update enables file system journaling on MacBook and MacBook Pro notebook computers. Some MacBook and MacBook Pro systems were shipped with file system journaling turned off. Journaling is recommended on all Mac computers as a preventative measure against file corruption."
It is recommended for Mid 2007 MacBooks
I ran the Software Updater on my MacBook which I bought in June and this update did not come up as needed. Has anyone else installed this? If it does not come up in the Updater, does that mean I don't need it?
Thom

Thom you might try going to Applications->Utilities->Disk Utility->click on the name of your HD (probably something like "Macintosh HD" unless you renamed it) in the left had corner and look at the bottom of the window under "Format:" It should read "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" If that's the case then you probably don't need to worry about it.

MacBook MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1

I am having the same issue many others are having in regards to the MacBook MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 installing again, and again, and again, and again, ... Maybe you see the point.
I have browsed the Discussions, and tried some suggestions, (case sensitive) but it still installs, again and again, and again...
I am a little worried why Apple has not addressed this. This problem has existed since 12/18/2007. I think we have endured this long enough. If apple is not going to provide help, are there any users out there listening that have spent effort and found a solution.
I am all Ears!!!
Thanks, Steve

I have tried the solution listed here about case sensitive journaling. However, it did not help me.

MacBook MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 continues to appear

This has been the first really strange issue since I upgraded to Leopard. Ever since the MacBook MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 in Software Update, it continues to appear as if it was not installed. If I look at my installation log, it shows that I have installed it about 9 times since it was released. Here are the last few entries in my installation log:
2007-12-21 22:17:05 -0500: Installed "MacBook MacBook Pro Software Update" (1.1)
2007-12-21 22:17:59 -0500: Installed "Security Update 2007-009" (1.1)

2008-01-05 22:32:22 -0500: Installed "MacBook MacBook Pro Software Update" (1.1)
Is it safe to ignore this update? What is going on? Is there something wrong with my system? I haven't noticed any other problems.. I have no idea how Mac OS X determines if I need an update or not.

OK, here's what i did:
1) navigate to the: /Library/Updates sub-directory
(as in: "Macintosh HD" - "Library" folder - "Updates" folder
2) there should be a file named, "index.plist" - this is
the definition file for the update - i suspect this should
be removed by the Updater once the update is complete.
3) rename the file (don't delete it) ... i renamed the
file to, "index.plist.onhold"
you probably don't have to, but i rebooted the system, to
ensure nothing broke. afterwards, i did a "Software Update"
and it reported the system is up to date.

MacBook (Pro) Software Update 1.1 stays in the update application

As of the release of the MacBook (Pro) update to fix some keyboard/mouse issues (I didn't notice any problems) I'm not getting rid of the update in the updater:
It installs, reboots and pops up again. I've done this process several times now and if you go to
Preferences -> Softwareupdate -> Installed updates
it is there twice.
After the first time the update got installed, the MacBook was not able to reboot. It stuck in the bootup process and I removed power after approx 15 minutes with a black screen.
After that "forced" reboot, it worked like before - except the broken software update.
That's what I found in the logs, but I've no idea...

Dec 25 12:07:48 macbook-pro Software Update[205]: Package Authoring Error: installation-check results requires a message

Anyone?

I have those same messages in the install.log.
My Software Update.log shows this:
2007-12-18 01:09:38 -0500: Installed "Security Update 2007-009" (1.0)
2007-12-24 12:18:26 -0500: Installed "Security Update 2007-009" (1.1)
After the first time the update got installed, the MacBook was not able to reboot. It stuck in the bootup process and I removed power after approx 15 minutes with a black screen.
Well, this is what fubar Software Update.
If you feel the update was installed properly, Software Update can be set to ignore the update.

Is anyone else getting this problem?

I have the exact same problem. So far it has showed that I have "installed" it 6 times, but it still comes up. At this point I am just dismissing it, but it has gotten annoying. Has anyone heard of a fix/remedy yet for this?

MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 Refuses to Install

Ok well I have a very annoying problem. Since the 18th, I've been getting daily notices about the MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 thing, and daily I have been saying "OK, go ahead and interrupt what I'm doing, install it and then leave me alone." And then the next day, I get yet another message saying i need to install it.
Needless to say, this is highly annoying. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm getting the same behavior. I'm not sure but I think this may be related to whether the FIRST time you encounter this update, you opt to restart later rather than right away. Perhaps you can verify whether this was the approach you took as well. In any event, no number of restarts now of my MacBook Pro with 10.5.1 will prevent me from getting yet another message that the MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 is waiting to be downloaded and installed.
I assume Leopard has left largely unchanged the practice of placing a record of updates in its /Library/Receipts directory. If the properties of this directory change, such that it prevents it from being updated, this could lead Apple's "Software Update" utility to think software has never been installed when perhaps it has been installed after all.
I would consider also that perhaps the SoftwareUpdate.plist file may be questionable. I notice that while almost all other plist files in /Library/Preferences list "root" as the owner, the SoftwareUpdate.plist lists my own user name as the owner.
I think commands such as chown and chmod may become our best friend where this apparent bug is concerned; but I recognize that all the foregoing speculation on my part is a longshot.
I welcome the comments of others who encounter this behavior.

MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 keeps updating everyday...

The MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 (keyboard update) keeps updating everyday even after successfully completing. Is this a known issue?
thanks,
graham

Thanks for the help folks. I found the issue. The reason that this is occurring is that someone mistakenly named a file 'PlugIns' versus 'Plugins' or the script is wrong (one or the other). If you have a case-sensitive drive it will keep looking for the update. The solution is here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6142512&#6142512
The solution creates a file called 'Plugins', which simply points to the real file named 'PlugIns'.
It appears the Apple QA folks forgot to put case-sensitives drive formats into their test matrix. I hope they remedy this in the future.

Problem with MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1

I've installed the MacBook Pro Software Update 1.1 on my 17" MacBook Pro. Seems to have fixed any keyboard issues I may have been experiencing. But every time I run software update this particular update wants to be installed again. I've run the install three times and it's still being flagged as being needed.
Anyone else having this problem?
Only thing that I suspect is that it's because I've got my HD formatted as case-sensitive. I've noticed that formatting a drive as case-sensitive will break several popular games.
Can't we standardize on case-sensitive volumes yet, it's the 21st century for crying out loud!

I had the same issue.
How did you figure this out?
I was on the phone for almost two hours (mostly waiting) with support and they simply came up with 'Archive' and 'Store' and 'Rebuild' your system, which quite frankly would not have fixed this issue because I still would have a case-sensitive drive.
My post is here:

Macbook crashed after software update and won't reboot!

I have installed the latest updates on my 2.16Ghz, 10.5 Leopard, 1Gb MacBook through the software updater. There were 10 new udates inluding iTunes, Macbook security update and some for logic Pro.
The machine crashed with the 'hold the power button' type message which i did! after switching the machine back on, it boots into the Mac OSX setup assistant, so i assume i have lost my data? However, even if i enter all my details and complete the assistant, after clicking 'done', the assistant runs again!!!
I have applecare but they're now closed so i thought i'd see if anyone can help me out as i need it up and running asap.
Thanks,
Chris

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers

OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
