Purhcased lion 10.7.1 on usb key from apple - how do I upgrade to 10.7.2?  not showing in AppStore as an upgrade

Purhcased lion 10.7.1 on usb key from apple - how do I upgrade to 10.7.2?  The upgrade is not showing up in the AppStore nor the software update menu in the finder.  Don't want to purchase once again. 
Thank you,

Additionally, OS updates are not updated via the app store; they are updated via Software Update - so, have you checked that? That said, personally I prefer and use keg55's suggestion: download the combo and install it manually.

  • [SOLVED] install i686 on USB key from x86_64 : how ?

    Hi.
    As written in the title, I'm trying to install an Arch system on an usb stick, with i686 architecture, from the Arch x86_64 system on my computer.
    I would like to do it without copying the iso to an extra usb key.
    From the wiki : "If you are already running Arch, simply install arch-install-scripts and proceed with the installation guide just like you would from the iso, [...]"
    1) I'm not sure about what it means : can I actually do the install using arch-install-script, without using the iso or the bootstrap image ? Is that correct ?? (english is not my native language).
    2) Anyway, it didn't work. So I downloaded the bootstrap(s) image(s).
    Tried the i686 one, then the x86_64 one.
    For each, I changed the architecture in pacman.conf from "architecture = auto" to "architecture = i686".
    [~/tmp] tar xzf ~/downloads/archlinux-bootstrap-2015.03.01-x86_64.tar.gz

    Thanks for your reply. I just updated the whole system.
    Then
    [~]$ sudo mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt
    [~]$ sudo vi /etc/pacman.conf
    My system is x86_64. I'm trying to install from that an i686 system.
    If I run pacstrap now, it'll run ok but obviously it'll install an x86_64 system.
    So, in pacman.conf, I changed Architecture from auto to i686 and I commented out the Multilib lines.
    It seems it's not enough.
    [~]$ sudo pacstrap -c /mnt

    Where do these x86_64 come from ? Could it be they stand for the $arch in the Server line from /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist ?

  • UPDATING OSX MOUNTAIN LION ADOBE VIEWER. recently received e-bill statement. could not view. site recommended updating adobe viewer. as this feature comes OEM from Apple, how is this accomplished?

    UPDATING OSX MOUNTAIN LION ADOBE VIEWER. recently received e-bill statement. could not view. site recommended updating adobe viewer. as this feature comes OEM from Apple, how is this accomplished? Note, this was an online view for the PDF document.

    Thanks for your help.  Final question. So I am assuming that PDF funcitonality is accomplished via Preview.  I assume then that the PDF creation in Mail is also similarly accomplished, that is not via an Adobe product, but equivalent funcitonality. I see now that I can download Adobe. But, does the Apple PDF equivlant provide updates to keep up witht the new encoding structures released by Adobe, so that I can only update the Apple equivalent, or is this not practical because Apple would be chasing Adobe for software updates?

  • [SOLVED] Prevent a specific USB key from mounting ?

    Hi,
    I have a USB key containing my keyfile to decrypt my hard disk. I'd like to prevent it from being mount by any user except root (to prevent a malicious script running at startup and dumping it or so).
    My problem is that I can specify it in the fstab directly because it is a removable device and the kernel may drop to emergency mode if I put it there. Or maybe there's some option which I don't know ?
    Thanks

    Take it back to where you purchased it and ask for a replacement or refund. You are not addressing Apple here. We are all just users like yourself.

  • Why can't I get a replacement keyboard key from Apple?

    Rant version
    I was delivered a new 15 inch Macbook Pro with Retina screen with a broken 'V' key (literally, just the black plastic panel has a small broken clasp). I was unable to get a genius bar appointment anywhere within London Zone 1-2, Regent St, Stratford and Covent Garden all just tell me there are no appointments available. I called the Apple store in Stratford City to see if they could order a new 'V' key to the store so I could pick it up and click it on. They suggested I call Apple customer services as they wouldn't be able to help me unless I booked a Genius bar appointment, and obviously they had none. I was informed that I would have to send the entire machine away for at least 5 working days and then wait for a replacement to be shipped out. This is a total P.I.T.A as I have already started important projects on this machine.
    I managed to book a Genuis Bar appointment in Bromley (30 minutes drive from my house) and called to see if it would be possible for them to order the part in and fit it on the day, during my appointment. They said I would have to come in, just to show them the machine, and then they could order the part using my serial number. I asked why I couldn't just give them my serial number and come in when the part was delivered. They said that the telephone operator at the store could not make any sort of contact with the genius bar, regardless of the fact they are in the same building.
    I'd like to point out that everyone I have spoken to have been extremely nice, and understood my frustration, they just haven't been able to do anything that goes outside of their very limited protocol.I find it unacceptable that a company as powerful as Apple, are unable to post a keyboard key to a customer.
    As a computer enthusiast, this is the easiest and most simple problem I have ever had with a machine. It has also been the most common-sense defying process I have ever had the misfortune of being a part of. If it were up to me I would just pay the £3 for a replacement online, but Apple have changed the positions of the clasps from the unibody model by about a few microns, and I don't feel like waiting until someone decides to scrap a new RMBP.
    I don't mind if Apple don't want me to do the repair myself, that I may need to go through the enigmatic ritual of the genius bar to get this done (heaven forbid anyone but a Genius click the 'V' key on). I don't even mind if it takes a couple of weeks for the part to get there, I just want a replacement key, stuck on this laptop, without wiping the entire machine or sending it away for a week.
    Short version:
    If anyone knows where I can get a replacement 'v' key for the new 15inch Retina Macbook Pro then I'll love you forever.

    Yes it is sad but true I think. I EZprint to do my pano's and they turn out excellent. Give them a try.

When I came back to use CC today, I found out that the product key did not go through, and when I tried to redeem the code again it tells me it has been used, although my Adobe account only shows my 30 day free trial.

  • MacBook (not unibody)  will not boot from Boot Camp USB Key

    Hello
    I have a MacBook Pro 2007 (17", 2.4GHz, 4GB RAM and SSD) with a defect SuperDrive, and I want to install Windows using an USB key instead. But the computer will not boot from the USB Key, even though the USB key works on my MacBook Retina. Also I was able to install Mountain Lion using USB Key, on the MBP 2007.
    Here is a bit more details:
    I've installed Mountaion Lion from the same USB Key (so boot from USB works).
    I've installed a Windows 7 Boot Camp using the SuperDrive before (when it was not defected)
    I've partitioned the harddisk using the Boot Camp assistant (this requires a Windows DVD in the SuperDriver... however it worked just enught to be able to have OS X recognize the Windows DVD, and create the Boot Camp partition). So far so good. Installing from the SuperDriver howerver does not work.
    I've created an Windows USB Key using my MacBook retina. Because the Retina does not have a DVD, the Boot Camp assistant offers the creation of a bootable Windows USB Key from an Windows ISO file. I've used this USB key to install Windows on my MacBook retina.
    When I try to boot my MacBook 2007 with this Boot Camp USB Key, it shows an "EFI Boot" option (with a orange USB logo) in the MacBook boot menu. When I select this nothing happpens. The mouse freezes, and the computer never boots.
    Questions:
    Shouldn't I be able to boot from an EFI USB Key on this MacBook 2007, when I'm able to install Mountain Lion using a USB Key?
    When I installed BootCamp using the SuperDrive, I had to do som "magic" to make it bootable. Like this: http://www.logicalvue.com/2009/10/installing-window-7-x64-on-a-macbook-pro-using -bootcamp. I tried doing the "oscdimg -n -m -bc:\efi-dvd\boot\etfsboot.com c:\efi-dvd c:\efi-iso\win7x64.iso" trick and create a EFI bootable ISO and created the from this USB key using http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/. Same result... the USB key shows up in the boot menu, but nothing happens when I select it (except the mouse freezes).
    Any suggestions? Right now it feels like I have a bricked computer, because my kids needs Windows to run their games.
    : Thomas

    Thanks... I just tried rEFIt... and it almost worked.
    After installing rEFIt I got several different boot options:
    Bootmgr.EFI - This failed quick with a "unsupported" message
    Bootx64.EFI - This actually started the Windows installation with "Loading files.............". But after a few minutes when all files was loaded, the screen went black. I tried ataching an external screen, but the screen was still black.
    Boot from "Bootcamp" drive... as this drive is empty nothing happend.
    Boot from "USB Key"... I'm not sure how this is different from the first 2 options... but nothing happend. I belive this is what happens if I try selecting the USB key from the build in boot manager.
    Ofcause, whan I saw the "Loading files......" I thought I solved the problem, but as you can tell, I'm still stucked.
    Actually... I tried with both Windows 7 64 bit, Windows 8 64 bit and Windows 8 32 bit. Only Windows 8 64 bit, got me to the "Loading files.....". This was created with the Retina Boot Camp assistant.
    I also tried my own home made Windows 7 and Windows 8 ISO (created with this link: http://www.logicalvue.com/2009/10/installing-window-7-x64-on-a-macbook-pro-using -bootcamp).
    I guess my problem is another now. I'll continue my hunt... but I don't have more time right now. So I've installed Parallels and Windows 8 for my kids. Not optimal, but at least the can play their games.

  • USB key :: error -36

    Hi there.
    I have a problem with a USB stick on my MBP.
    (15", 3.06Mhz, 4Gb, snow leopard 10.6.2).
    When I copy big files (less than 4Gb of course) I have intermittent disconnections of the device with an error -36 displayed in finder.
    Even if I copy smaller files like 300Mb but a lot of them I have the problem.
    What I think is that if the USB device is used intensively to copy a good amount
    of data (from 1Gb or more) this stresses the USB port and ends up with the -36 error.
    I have tried to reformat this USB key using the MAC disk utility to make sure it was not a problem with the original formating of the device which by the way is a Corsair Flash GT voyager 16Gb, so not a cheap and crappy one.
    I have reproduced the same problem with different files which I now are not corrupted since they can be read on a MBP 13" 2.53MHz 4Gb on Leopard or
    on a Mac Pro quad core on OS 10.5.8 or even a PC.
    I have tried also this USB key on a friend's MBP 15", 2.8MHz, 4Gb under Snow Leopard 10.6.2 and the same thing happens, error -36.
    I know there was a problem with copying directories and error -36 that has been fixed in 10.6.3 but this is not the same problem.
    Also, I use bootcamp to run XP, and guess what, in parallel or using bootcamp to boot a native XP I also have the same problem of intermitent deconnections of the USB device...
    My conclusion: there is a bug in the USB hardware of the MBP 15" and I am amazed that I can not find more about this problem on the Internet. I experience this issue for more than 6 months now.

    This forum is one of my worst user experiences of the month...
    Why can't I just edit my post if I want to correct typos or bring some more information???
    Anyway, since I can not edit my original post here is the correction:

    Well if the USB driver is provided by bootcamp to XP, then it could also be a bug in the driver.
    Or may be this is an incompatibility with the NANDs or whatever memory banks used in my USB key and my MBP 15" that works perfectly well on 13" MBP, Mac Pros and PCs.

  • Cannot install Logic 8 Studio due to lost v7 USB key

    I am wondering if someone can point me to the correct Apple support email address to address my problem. I have scoured these boards and can only seem to find email support for iTunes and iPod (sigh).
    I have been a Logic user since the early Emagic days and have upgraded to every major version.
    I have all my receipts dating back to Logic 5 from Emagic.
    I bought the Apple Logic 7.2 crossgrade in February 2006, and the Logic Studio 8 upgrade in September 2007. At the time, my house was being renovated, so things were in boxes and life was in turmoil.
    When I got Logic Studio 8, I installed it successfully on my MacBook Pro using the v8 serial number and the USB key.
    Now that my renovations are finished and I've moved back into my house, I need to install v8 Studio onto my G5 tower which has been optimized for my music production. When I went to install it, it asked me for either my earlier serial number (none of my old Emagic numbers worked from earlier Emagic receipt emails) or it asked me to insert my USB key from v7 which appears to have been lost in my move (I have turned the house upside down looking for it).
    So I am currently stuck. I cannot install v8 Studio and I would like to contact Apple via email with all my receipts and order information to see if there is anything they can do to help me out. I registered both v7.2 and v8 online during the installation process, but unfortunately (unlike Adobe or Native Instruments) there doesn't seem to be anywhere on the Apple site where I can log in to look up serial numbers for previous registrations.
    This is really frustrating. I've spent hundreds (maybe thousands) supporting Logic over the years and I'd be really ****** off if I have to go and buy the full version of Logic 8 again.
    So, if any can advise me the best path to follow in contacting Apple about this for assistance, I'd certainly appreciate it.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    I just got off the phone with Apple support and they were extremely helpful. I explained my situation, and luckily I was armed with every Apple invoice for Logic that I had since it took the product over, and all my earlier emails (circa 2002) with Emagic. I was also 'showing up' in Apple's system so they were able to verify my purchases from my Apple Web Order numbers.
    The support agent asked me for my old Emagic XS key number, which I luckily had in a very old email. He then offered me two options: a) I could buy a new Logic 7 dongle for $90, or 2) if I wasn't going to be using Logic 7 anymore, he could generate a new full retail serial number for Logic Studio 1.0 (v8) for me. The latter was my choice, and I do not need to have my old XS key, or any old serial numbers to now install Logic Studio.
    I did wait 30 minutes for my call to be answered and about another 10 minutes while the agent went off to check some stuff and generate the new serial number - a small price to pay instead of having to go and buy the whole thing over again!
