  • An older version of Apple Software Update could not be removed

    when trying to upgrade to itunes 8 i get an error saying "An older version of Apple Software Update could not be removed. Contact your technical support group."

    Polydorus, you just saved me a lot of (additional) heartburn. I had to do a system restore to rid myself of a virus, and afterwards, somehow all my Apple products entered a state of suspended animation - they were neither there nor not there. They were still listed in the programs and all the shortcuts remained, but clicking the icons led to an error message stating the programs were gone. I couldn't do a reinstall because it said an older version could not be removed, yet I couldn't uninstall them via the Add/Remove program function - "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable". Delving further, I was told "the installation source for this product is not available. verify that the source exists and that you can access it." I was nearly apoplectic.
    Your direction to use Windows Install Clean Up worked perfectly. iTunes et al are back and all my songs are right where I left them.
    I am so grateful.

  • Software Update: Could not be Verified

    I have a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.7.3 Lion. Since I have gotten it, I've used Software Update without experiencing any problems - untill now. Now, whenever I try to download/install updates, I get an error message saying "The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs." What is going on, and how can I fix this?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Software Update - could not be verified and expanded

    I tried to do a search on this, but didnt initially find anything.
    Software Update runs, finds updates to download, I click Install Updates, they are downloaded but then I get an error that reads, The update "XYZ" could not be verified and expanded correctly. Make sure you have permissions to write to /private/tmp/501/temporariyitems, then try again.
    I tried to chown the permissions on that directory, no difference. I then did:
    sudo su
    cd /private
    rm -r tmp
    mkdir tmp
    cd /
    ln -s /private/tmp tmp
    ...and now the error message for software update has become: blah blah blah, Make sure you have permission to write to /tmp/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate, then try again.
    Can anyone help? This computer has been sitting dormant for a couple of months and I wasnt the main user before so I can only assume this has been going on for a while and is not a new issue. Thanks!!!

    Do you have an admin account on the computer?
    Instead of Software Update, I suggest that you download and install 10.3.9 Combo Update. Remember to Repair Disk Permissions before and after installation.

  • TS1538 the iphone cannot be restore at this time because the iphone software update could not be contacted or temperarially unavailable

    the iphone cannot be restore at this time because the iphone software update server could not be contacted or temperarily unavailable....
    this error has been occred

    "Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care?"
    99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
    So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.

  • Software update - Could not connect to service

    Hi,
    When I use PC Suite its says update ready. When I try to update it says could not connect to service.
    I have an E72 I just bought (used) to replace my one that was stolen recently, and its firmware is old - in fact its firmware version is 0.22 (i.e. 2009). I cannot update it via *#0000# - whatever I do it seems impossible to upgrade the firmware.
    At first I thought it was due to Nokias servers being down - but I think not as its been about a week now. I have of course checked Internet Explorer is not set in offline mode, and my firewall was down and antivirus off.
    Is there anyway of getting the file and flashing the firmware myself?
    (I have hard reset the phone via *#7370# and 12345 unlock, and this got OVI store working, but still cannot update the firmware via PC or WIFI.)
    Thanks.

    OK - just in case anybody else is affected by this - heres how to solve it. It didn't work with my laptops PC suite - I dunno why.
    So - Simply reinstall OVI PC Suite - I installed it fresh on a virgin Windows 7 PC and it set everything up no problem.
    It downloaded SoftwareUpdater which I then ran seperate, but it complained that it couldn't see my Nokia connected to it by USB. But I just had to wait a while until windows 7 update downloaded all the drivers to connect to the USB on the Nokia.
    I restarted it, then it connected and detected the old 0.22 firmware and downloaded and installed the new 0.83 firmware - the Nokia went blank etc... so I knew it was finally working.
    Fantastic - everything went smooth as a babys bum. Its very frustrating when it reports that it cannot update and you waste a week falsely thinking thats its down to Nokias service outages etc...

  • Apple software updater could not be found on my desktop

    i have tryed to update my software updater and the updater path cannot be found but when i go to remove programs it wont let me remove the updater or itunes itself it cant find the installer itself and also when i try and reinstall itunes from the set up it still cant find it.

    Use Get Info. on a broken track and view the "expected" location from the summary tab. Restore the file from a backup, or find out where it has been moved to and move it back. If there is an obvious pattern it may be possible to move everything in one go, or I have a script called FindTracks that may be able to reconnect files to their current locations, assuming they're still present somewhere.

  • When i try running itunes 10.5 it gives me an error saying  old apple softaware update could not be removed

    having a problem updating to itunes 10.5. it installs but when i try to run, it gives an error that old apple software update could not be removed

    From the article that the question was posted from:
    Error 1611
    This error typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, this error may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Try reading the solutions you find in the future and follow them.

  • Can't download the latest iTunes. A window pops up... The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs. No iTunes now.

    Now, iTunes won't launch and can't be updated. Please help.
    If I have lost my music collection I will be switching platforms ASAP. It is insane that Apple has updates seemingly every day for their products.

    I was in your same situation with 14 downloads and 14 attempts. 
    You have to make sure that your Mac is booting into 64 bit mode.  You can make sure of this by going into System Preferences and scrolling down to 'Software' and making sure that you are booding with 64 bit Kexts. 
    If not, restart while holding the 6 and 4 keys down until you see the spinning gear wheel and try installng again. 
    BUT, what I also did was to go into Applications, click on the Lion installer, Get Info, and give yourself custom priviliges to Read And Write. 
    I did this simultaneously, and I don't know what function did it, but it worked for me, with no further downloads of the installer. 
    Good luck! 

  • The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.

    How can I solve this? Every time I have the option to update an application I receive the same notification: "The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs"

    Can we eliminate one minor possibility: are you in the UK and using Virgin Media cable connection? I ask because the latest 'Superhub' firmware is corrupting large downloads for some people.

    Which latest update? Details get answers. Rather than using SU, DL and install from http://support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • When I click on Firefox it opens with a box that says "Foxfire is installing your updates and will start in a few moments-. " then it says "Software Update Failed (in blue) with an exclamation mark inside a yellow triangle) The update could not be install

    When I click on Firefox the first time it says "Foxfire is installing your updates and will start in a few moments…. (with a green bar)" then it says "Software Update Failed (in blue) with an exclamation mark inside a yellow triangle)
    The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer, and then restart Firefox to try again." When I click the ok, Firefox opens up. If I open another Firefox window with the previous one still running, it doesn't give me any of these messages, it just opens normally.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    If you can't install on top of the current installation then you need to delete or rename the current Firefox program folder to do a clean install.
    It is possible that your security software is using or locking files, so you can try to temporarily disable that software during the installation.

  • An update tries to run, but an error message stating "The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer, and then restart Firefox to try again." I can't open Firefox

    I click on Firefox and it says that Firefox is installing your updates and will start in a few minutes. Then I get "The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer, and then restart Firefox to try again." this cycle never ends. Do I need to deinstall Firefox and re-install? If I do that, do i lose all of my bookmarks, etc?

    Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder:
    *C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates
    *(%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates)
    *C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\updates
    *Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    *Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer. Do not remove personal data when uninstalling.
    *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.
    You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.
