Software Update - Checking for Updates
Hi,
I've just got my PlayBook and I've followed every step, but now I'm stuck. After plugging it in, setting up the wi-fi, logging in with my Blackberry ID, downloading and installing the updates and restarting the PlayBook I'm stuck on the same screen... For over an hour now. All it says is: "Software Update - Checking for Updates"
Can anyone help? Please?
Try the three button reset. Hold down Power Button, plus both volume buttons at the same time for 15 seconds. Release and wait one minute. Then hold down the power button only until the red light flashes on (about 4 seconds) , release and wait for the PB to reboot.

ITunes 8.1 Software Application - Check for Updates Freezes Up
Ok, I updated to 8.1 iTunes and everything seems to have installed fine, however, whenever I go into my Applications folder and click on "Check for Updates" at the bottom right of the window, iTunes 8.1 freezes up. If I Ctrl-Alt-Del and look as the running process, it shows iTunes to "Not be Responding" upon which the only way to get out of it is to force quit the application.
Anyone else experience this?Well, now it's crashing after launching. Very similar to the ones that has been posted here and several people are now having the same problem.
I see that you can shut genius bar and it fixed it for some, however, like others, I don't think I have enough time to disable Genius before it crashse. -
TOSHIBA software that check for newest drivers and installs them
Is there a software? I have Toshiba tempo, but it just pops a message saying that there is a new drivers, but there is no option to install them automatically as well as to check the current version?
As far as I know such software doesnt exist. Tempro is designed to inform notebook user but it is your decision to make update or not.
I must also say that I completely agree with Xardas. You dont need update if everything works properly. I use my Satellite P500 almost a year and half and still use original OS from Toshiba. What I install are Microsoft updates (important only) and antivir software update. -
Disable "check for updates" iTunes AND allow update iPad iPhone
In an enterprise environment we followed http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2102 to disable the "check for updates" in iTunes, although this is preventing users from updating thier iPad and iPhone devices as well.
How would we manage the Windows computer software (disable check for updates) but allow users to manage (update) thier own portable devices that require iTunes to update?No. For now we have decided to perform the default install for our users with specific instructions not to update when Apple informs them of an update. When they see the pop up notification of an Apple update, they are to open the SCCM (SMS) "Run Advertised Programs" where we have packaged the new version to install with Admin rights.

cannot up date software to ios 7 so i can get certain apps all it does is say checking for updates
Here are some options:
1. turn off your device completely for at least 30 sec
connect your device to your computer
update using iTunes in your computer.
2. If the first option fails, try resetting first the settings (setting>general>reset>reset all settings). Once done click on settings>general>software update -
When I check for software updates only itunes and random other updates show up but not security updates or safari update. When i check installed updates I realized my last security update was 2011-004 and I still have safari 5.0.6. Can anyone help me?
Don't panic. OS X 10.5.8 is the most popular PowerPC OS out there. People run it everyday without security breaches, including myself. It isn't Windows!
If you're really that worried, I highly recommend Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition. Supports PowerPC & Intel and Mac OS X 10.4-10.7.

itunes says that the version of software on my ipod touch 3rd gen is up to date, but IOS 5 is avaliable. I have checked for software updates for days but it keeps saying that 4.2.1 is the current version. Why cant i get IOS 5?

because you do not have a 3rd generation device. The OS Version says so , otherwise you would be at 4.3.5 minimum and also Itunes is also always correct in determining if you have the latest OS ( if not it fetches the newest from Apple's Servers ) . And because a 2nd generation iPod stops at 4.2.1 you can't get the newest OS, because your device is old. Buy a new iPod , they have iOS5 preinstalled. -
So I bought a Powerbook G4 from a pawn shop and yes, I did check to see if it was still good. everything works fine but I need an update because I have OS X 10.3. So I connect to the internet and then I click on ''Software Update'' and I wait. But then a message opens saying ''An error occurred while checking for updates'' And I don't know why. HELP!!!
Something temporarily wrong with your internet connection?
Be aware that this is a very large file to download, it needs a strong consistent internet connection.
Have the iPhone on the charger cable too.
In the meantime read the threads in this forum about the visibility item and some other possible issues on the 4 and 4S (although a large number of people have these issues, it is still a minor percentage, but anyhow, be aware). -
"software update" "An error occurred while checking for updates"
When I click on "Software Update", an error results, "An error occurred while checking for updates". It is definitely connected to the internet. I was gifted a G5 and I installed a new hard drive and loaded the OS, OS X 10.3.5. That version of Safari does not display pages correctly. E.g., support.apple.com/downloads just clocks on the righthand side of the page.
Because cannot access that link, cannot manually update the OS - I was thinking this version is "old" and as a result, unable to connect to apple's update server. Thanks.Thanks, I upgraded with your info.
Ultimately, I am trying to access mail.google.com but receiving the following error with opera v9.5.x: Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version.
Safari gives the following: Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version.

I get a message "The Itunes server could not be contacted, check your internet connection" when trying to check for Ipod Nano software updates. I have a 1st generation Nano and haven't updated the software for a while. My internet connection is working. Was thre a change in the internet address for NANO software updates? Do I have to reconfigure something in Itunes to point to the correct address?
What version of iTunes are you using? The latest is 10.6.3. In iTunes, choose Help -> About iTunes to check the version number. If it's lower than 10.6.3, download the latest version from here.

How do I turn off notifications for Software Updates?
In the 'Notifications' section of the 'System Preferences' app, there is no tab for managing the notifications of System Updates nor App Store.
Hey--- I like auto-checking for updates, and hey--- I like auto-downloading them in the background.
BUT I do not like being notified of updates in the middle of working! Especially when it's iTunes updates. Grrrr.
Any chance this is easy and I just missed it?
THANKS COMMUNITY!Settings > Notification Center > Mail > Select the mail account (if more than one) > Alert Sound > None
