Software Management Tool

Hey everybody!
I just want to know, if anybody would also prefer a management tool for the software in the mac. 2 years ago, I used Linux. It has a management tool for the software. So you can install software easier from the web and updates for EVERY INSTALLED software can be seen in this tool. You haven't to start every tool to update. Just open the software management tool and take a look if something new is availlable.
I am interessted in your opinion.
Thx

It's not a typical Mac way-to-do ... Some months ago i've heard something about a project but it's not useful because many applications as AdobeCS3 for example needs their update clients to patch apps.
So what use of a program that search updates and notify you if there are something new but it can't update your apps?
On Linux what you're talking about is very useful because of many daily updates (for system or for apps), you can install applications from Synaptics (ubuntu) and track their updates.
Usualy Mac programmers use to add a module inside their products (located under program name on the right of apple menu) that search on app launch for updates.
If you need only System Updates they are automatic , go to Apple menu and choose Software Update
for some options.

  • SQL Server Management Tools - Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE. Error code: 1406

    Detailed Results:
    Feature: Management Tools-Basic
    Status: Failed
    Component Name: Sql Server Management Studio
    Component Error code: 1406
    Error Description: Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    The first time the installer worked installing perfectly, but I needed an named instance of "SQL2008", so I removed the instances. After this re-installing is not working.
    From past 3-4 days I went through most of the links which has provided solutions for error code 1406, and not having success for installing.
    I have tried these options,
    1) Ran the installer using "Run as Administrator"option. I am an Administrator user for the machine.
    2) In Registry Editor, right-click HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software, and then click Permissions. Click Add, type Everyone, and then click OK. Under Group or user names, click Everyone. Under Permissions, click to select Full Control in the Allow column, and then
    click OK.
    3) Uninstalled the Sql server product, and used Revo Uninstaller / CCleaner to clean the registry and the remaining files and folders.
    4) Multiple versions of SQL installers have been tried (SQL 2008/2012/2014)
    5) Logged in as local/Administrator for the machine, tried the similar steps.
    6) The same installers are still working in one of the virtual machines for multiple times of installation and uninstallation without having any problems.
    Please let me know, if needed further information. Please provide help for installing SQL server management studio.

    I have the same problem.
    I can not install MSSQLManagementStudio. I suppose
    that is not the fault of permissions
    . I have tried to
    install as an administrator
    on the computer in the domain where the account has domain administrator permissions.The account is added to the local administrators.
    I also have tried to install as local administrator
    account after the removal of the domain.

    we must manually install some required software.

  • Disk Management Tool error in Disk Utility

    Update: (first, reviewing problem that I and others have been having, including on 10.4.x systems):
    When I attempt to repair permissions on my HD with Disk Utility, I get this specific error message: "Disk Utility internal error -- Disk Utility has lost its connection with the Disk Management Tool and cannot continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility" and the repair-permissions will not proceed. It fails to get the proper "correct" permissions info for that drive to allow the repair. The error log points to a file in the Library called "DiskManagementToll" The path is ~/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DiskManagement.framework/Resources/DiskManag ementTool)
    This problem is appearing in many forums here and elsewhere, including 10.4.x systems (like mine) and persists in a few after deleting suggested files. Is there a sophisticated solution that addresses the problem through the DiskManagementTool file by replacing some values or replacing the file from a backup vis SUDO or Root?
    Previous posts have focused on Macs running 10.3.x and with iTunes 6.0x installed. Not here, so the problem is more general. None of the "delete iTunes / plists / Chess.app" suggested fixes have worked for me. Also tried running DU from my Tiger install disk; no luck! -- still fails when it tries to determine the correct permissions.
    The "DiskManagementTool" file apparently either stores the correct file permissions or handles reading them from the receipts in the Library. If I understand things right, Disk Utility is actually a (user)-permissioned graphic front end, while DiskManagementTool is a Root-user-level tool that actually does the heavy lifting. Can I replace -- and any benefit to that -- or rewrite it with proper access?
    There is a complete crash log report in Crash Reporter, by the way. Anyone want the text, and would it help figure out what's happening?
    I've tried the suggested deletion of iTunes 6.0.2 or Chess.app and their plists (these and other steps were suggested on MacFixIt at http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060111090035797 the advice is, basically, to delete iTunes 6.0.2 and/or Chess.app and related plist files.) As I said, no luck!
    Everyone that I talk to says it MUST be the fault of some other 3rd-party disk utility software.
    For what it's worth, I HAVE run Disk Warrior -- and, the drive that's having the problem is a recent reinstall from a backup using Carbon Copy Cloner. The original disk is NOT having such a problem, only the hard drive on my iBook after the reinstall. Don't know if that gives any clues (or to how the link gets somehow disengaged between Disk Utility and the Disk Management Tool file / software).
    Any thoughts on that? What about replacing the Disk Management Tool file in the Library or forcing some kind of re-link to it? some Unix guru MUST know a fix!
    Obviously, the big worry for me is that I can't update my System to 10.4.5 or anything else without repairing permissions first. This IS a big deal. And others are having the same problem. Help?!?
    New 2 GHz dual g5 , Dual g4, & iBook G4 (recent) Mac OS X (10.4.4)

    A system problem was involved that became, briefly, a "known issue" that was solved in the next minor update. Solved, anyway, by the advice given by the last poster. Thanks! SJ

  • Project management tools for complex publishing project?

  • Screen samples for EHS Management tool

    Hello EHS gurus:
    Can someone tell me where I can see some sample screens and steps in the EHS Management tool program?
    Regards,

    Hello
    first of all: what do you mean with "EHS Management tool program"?? SAP is not using this term.
    SAP uses the term "SAP EHS Management". If you take a look on SAP pages then SAP Management does mean a number of applications which are grouped. Therefore this is not "one" program but many.
    PLease refer to e.g.
    http://www.sap.com/solutions/business-suite/erp/corporate_services/ehs/index.epx#
    http://help.sap.com/content/documentation/sbs/docu_sbs_ehs.htm
    http://www.sap.com/solutions/business-suite/erp/corporate_services/ehs/features-functions/environmental-compliance-software/index.epx
    Take a look as an add on SAP pages using the term "sustainibility".
    second:
    Sorry: Best options is to prepare a SAP IDES system to get an idea about EHS Management. and the screens etc.
    Another option is to get training from SAP. Be aware of the fact that to my knowledge there are not so many SAP locations there you can get training
    E.G:: https://training.sap.com/us/en/course/sus310-sap-ehs-management-essentials-and-functions-eef-classroom-095-us-en/

  • How to start BusinessObjects Software Inventory Tool?

    Hi there,

    Hi,
    You can login to the Central Management Console and select Settings link.
    In the settings link Product version information will be displayed like, Product Version: 12.X.X.XXX.
    In the above version type, 12 is major release type and second 'x' is of service pack. So, if you have 12.3.X.XXX then you have the XI3.1 SP3 installed.

  • Scourge: Macrovision Software Manager

    Hi there,
    My new Curve 8900 is great, but I am very unhappy that RIM has included the "Macrovsion Software Manager" in their tools desk, which installs itself, unasked, when installing the Blackberry software.
    This disgusting program is an irritating resource hog that imbeds itself on your computer and, like some virus infestation, resists every attempt to uninstall it. It can't even be removed by the Windows Install Clean-up utility. Such invasive software is obnoxious and I can't believe that RIM which makes fine products would use employ such programs. Their human "software manager" should be taken to task.
    RIM, please DO NOT use such garbage software in your otherwise fine products, and
    Please do let me know how I can get rid of it!
    Many thanks for anyone who may have some insights to share. I've googled the issue and there are many people with similar complaints but I've yet to find an effective solution. Apparently, RIM does not seem to be jumping in with any help, either.

    Already have reviewed many articles on this topic, none seem to apply to my situation. I am going crazy trying to solve it.

    As I've said this workstation meets the requirements for installation of the Management Tools. It is 64bit.
    Thanks for the link to the exchangeserverpro.com installation instructions blog. It is something I had already reviewed. There are many comments with problems, so many in fact it is confusing what finally worked for people who ran into snags.
    Many also reported the "reboot from a previous installation is pending" problem (that I am getting), but their solution to that problem is not obvious, since, as I originally posted, the Microsoft answer to that error message is contained in "http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc164360(v=exchg.80).aspx"
    and the registry keys do not exist on my Win7 client. The other solution in the comments seemed to be to exclude the "Automatically install Windows Server roles and features required for Exchange" during install (but so far Ed and Rajith want
    me to include that option). The blog is quite old, and so I hoped the SP3 for Exchange 2010 would have fixed the installer issues identified in the comments on that blog... but apparently not!
    DNS is working in our environment. The IP address in the error message points to a network load balancer (NetScaler by Citrix) and does not respond on telnet using port 53... It is our standard DHCP-provided configuration for client DNS. (Does the
    Exchange installer for Management Tools have some unique DNS requirements beyond normal name resolution? If so, does the Exchange admin need DNS admin rights?) Just to remove the load balancer from the equation, I changed my Win7 client network adapter settings
    to use two real, physical actual Microsoft AD domain controllers to resolve DNS. I performed an IPCONFIG /FLUSHDNS. Then re-ran the Exchange 2010 installer. The specific error for DNS has gone away now that I am not using our enterprise's standard load balancer
    DNS client configuation. I really need to know why this is an Exchange management tools requirement. Any ideas?
    But still no-go on getting the Exchange 2010 Management Tools to install. Here are the latest errors on the Readiness Checks:

  • Setup of SQL 2008 Management Tools

    We are getting the following error when trying to setup SQL 2008 Management tools on an Windows 2008 server.
    CASPOL.exe - .NET Framework Initialization error
    Set registry key: HKLM\software\microsoft\.NET Framework\InstallRoot
    the installer won't does not go any further.
    Thanks in advance

    This has been very frustrating so far without success yet.
    Then execute the following command line: Drive:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\%version%\caspol.exe -m -ag 1 -url "file:////\computername\sharename*"
    FullTrust -exclusive on  --> what does this mean?
    We copied the SQL 2008 dvd to the local machine.   right now we are still getting the caspol.exe error.

  • Apple AirPort Management Tool

    After switching from my older ibook to this new Macbook I am unable to use Apple AirPort Management Tools.
    This has to be one of the most used applications on my mac at work. Does anyone know if they are updating it because when I try to run it on the new macbook it says “The Airport Management Utitiy requires airport 3.4 or later” So it brings me to software updates and find no updates..
    Is there a work around so I can use this or I will need to start caring around two laptops?

    1. Open the .dmg if it did not auto-open.
    2. Control-click "AirPortSW.pkg" and select "Show Package Contents"
    3. Open Contents
    4. Drag Archive.pax.gz to the Desktop
    5. Double-click Archive.pax.gz to unarchive the file
    6. AirPortConfig.framework is in ~/Desktop/Archive/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks
    7. Drag AirPortConfig.framework to /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/
    You will be asked to authenticate.
    Airport Management Tool should work at this point.
