Update notifications add up

Hi - since some time now without obvious reason, the red number badge in the dock adds with every successful update installation. In the Appstore App clicking on the update icon brings up the correct items and the update works fine so far. Afterwards, the number of updates indicated in the badge reduces but comes back if I click the updates burron again. So the number in the badge increases more and more. The update process itself works.

Let's try this for now and see what happens...

Using REST Update Notification Hub to add APNS certs fails with 409

Hi - I'm trying to use the Update Notification Hub REST call (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn223260.aspx) to add a valid APNS cert to an existing hub. When I do this, the update fails with a response code of 409 - which is not mentioned
in the possible codes on that documentation page... Seems to be complaining that hub already exists.
When I use the Create Notification Hub REST Call (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn223269.aspx) and include the proper <ApnsCredential> element it succeeds.
I see no difference in the docs between the two calls. The request body is described slightly differently. It appears to me that create and update are the same call? What causes a 409 when calling the Update method?
How am I supposed to update the push certs of an existing hub?
Thanks!

The answer is that the HTTP spec implies that for REST style calls for updating a resource at the same URI - you need to include the "If-Match" header set to '*'
see: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd541480.aspx
and section 14.24 of RFC2616 ( http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt )
In my opinion this is a documentation bug - the Request Headers section of Update Hub ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn223260.aspx ) should mention it requires the "If-Match" header. It is required because without it
- this becomes a Create Hub call

Update Notification doesn't work on Oracle11g

Hi
I'm using ODP.NET 11.1.0.6.0 which is accompanied with Oracle11gR1.
When I use OracleDependency to get update notification,
There are 2 problems:
1. I can't receive update notification, when I change data.
2.Port property of OracleDependency doesn't affect listening port.
I checked by netstat.
Are there any problem in the following code.
.NET Client is:
Windows XP SP2
Oracle 11gR1
DB Server is:
Windows XP SP2
Oracle 11gR1
Both are on Vistual Machine(VMWare Server)
and Japanese environment.
I add CHANGE NOTIFICATION rights to user,
And db's dbchange_notification_enable hidden parameter is true.

Nobody had this trouble...?
I even tried DFU mode - to no luck! Gutted about this, because otherwise its perfect... but I am beginning to suspect something is really wrong with it now.
Well, there is good news - I called Apple, spoke to a fantastic chap called DJ and he's sorting out a replacement for me. I can't afford to be without my iPhone, so paid the fee to get a replacement sent out first. I guess these things happen, and better to sort it out in warranty, than out of.
But seriously, nobody experienced this at all??

Is there an addon to block Firefox update notifications?

So Firefox has always been annoying when it comes to updates, and now it has a daily window that pops up unless I update, which will interrupt me if I'm playing a game, or watching a movie. I don't NEED to break my addons and there is no advantage for me to update, only disadvantages so I am wondering if there is an addon or plugin for Firefox 3 that will block update notifications.

''...I also know that these updates are for people who DON'T know what they are doing...''
Actually, that is not the full story. Malware is injected into reputable websites all the time, and can trigger software errors that allow automatic execution of attack code by infiltrating the host program's address space (e.g., buffer overflows). In the past, attacks have been launched through flaws in rendering of JPEGs, among other automatic browser behaviors. Windows 7's DEP can protect you from some of these attacks, but no one believes that DEP is foolproof.
I applaud you for being security conscious and actively minimizing your risk, but practicing cautious computing is not the same as having no risk.
Edit: I should add that I'm not trying to talk you out of what you want to do, but providing more complete information for others who read this thread in the future and might not be as savvy as you.

Synchronizing database query with update notifications via AQ

I am building a financial system and want to keep all my reference data in the database.
If one user updates a piece of data, I need all users that use that data to be notified of the change.
I know I can do this using triggers and publish-subscribe, but I have a synchronization problem:
A client comes up, queries initial value via select, then (or before) subscribe to updates.
Since the AQ channel is seperate from the regulal DB connection, I do not know if I missed an update notification that happened just after I queried, but before my subscription came into effect, or I might even get an update that is older then my query.
I know I can add sequance numbers to all updates, and force an initial update each time a new client connects, but that is both slow and complex.
Can anybody think of a simple way to have a database query synchronized with updates?

A query with different syntax would result in a different hash value.
Stored outlines work based on hash value.
Your question is probably answered now.

No More Update notification?

is Update notification removed? update 35 something was last time i got Update notification, after first time i started to check from Help=about firefox, if i don't do that i don't know when the update is out cause there is no Update notification, or is the update made automatic? like it updates & when i close fox & open it again next time its new Ver?

''Sashoto Seeam [[#answer-720202|said]]''
<blockquote>
There are four types of update settings available in Firefox. They are:
* '''Automatically install updates''' (recommended: improved security): Firefox automatically downloads and installs found updates.
**'' Warn me if this will disable any of my add-ons'': If you wish to be prompted if the downloads will disable any installed add-ons, select that setting.
* '''Check for updates, but let me choose whether to install them''': Firefox lets you choose if you want to download and install updates. If you do not choose to do so, you can download them at a later time.
* '''Never check for updates''' (not recommended: security risk): Firefox will not check for updates.
To get these settings, from your ''Firefox menu button'' then click Options. Go to Advanced > Update. You can know more about it from here: [[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/advanced-panel-accessibility-browsing-network-upda#w_update-tab |All about updates]]
</blockquote>
thing is i have not changed setting, so it notified me before, & i think it was with automatic update on that gave me popup window about installation or restart (something like that), did they just removed it? cause i can see why some would not like it, it just gave me a feeling that something is off cause i haven't seen that popup for 3updated at least
my aromatic is on, so it should update silently so i don't notice what it updates & next day i open its just new version

Content distribution issue with message "Found package properties updated notification for package '00000123'"

I've got strange issue with 1 of my primary sites that started just recently. I've updated the content of 1 package and this now needs re-distribution to all DPs. I've got 3 primary sites and on 2 of those the update succeeded and my DP's got
updated correctly. One primary site it does not work and checking distrmgr.log I can see following message every xx minutes
Found package properties updated notification for package '000008B7' SMS_DISTRIBUTION_MANAGER 6/21/2014 12:00:31 AM 5836 (0x16CC) ==>
Checking Pkgxfermgr.log does not show anything either, I've tried with 2nd application but again the same result it only shows the the notification message.
I saw similar issue yesterday but with restart of the sms_exec service it eventually distributed the content, obviously this is not something I like to do too often.
does anyone have idea what this could be, suggestions are welcome. Thx.

Jason, I've checked the flow from the CAS down to the primary below is quick overview. The package I'm testing is just small package that we use to check replication is working in our environment it's less then 1MB in size and we run it
1/week basically update content and then check monitoring-content distribution that it has been received on our 260 DP's around the globe
CAS (Located in the US EST Time zone)
Distrmgr.log 11:25am update package and needs to be send to 3x primary sites (A00; B00; C00)
sender.log 11:30am all 3 primary sites have received the content.
C00 (Primary site in Singapore having the issue)
distrmgr.log 11:27pm received notification of the package
despool.log 11:32pm packaged content extracted successfully
distrmg.log started to see message Found notification for package '000008B7' and followed by next message
Package '000008B7' (priority 2) is already in queue.
This goes one until 1:21am (Singapore time)
Start updating the package 000008B7... SMS_DISTRIBUTION_MANAGER 6/21/2014 1:21:45 AM 8296 (0x2068)

ISTR8="" ISTR9="" NUMATTRS=1 AID0=400 AVAL0="000008B7"
After that nothing anymore.
When I check monitoring - content distribution I can see the package being updated/distributed to 80% of my DP's and last 20% are the dp connected below this Primary site.
To add to the confusion, there was another package distributed around the same time, and then one actually made it to the remote DP's.
This is first time I see this issue.

Disabling automatic update notification

Hello, in the previous version, you could disable update notifications with mms.cfg, but this does not seem to work anymore. Is there another way to do it? It's not enough to disable it manually from the settings. I'm talking about the Windows version 10.1 that was just released.

Ok, I think I got this figured out.
Based on a forum user from here:
http://www.appdeploy.com/packages/detail.asp?id=1382
Under the notes section a user states:
When you created mms.cfg with disabled update, flash settings still show you that Auto-Update is turned on ( http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager05.htm l ). But accordance to Adobe guidelines, incoming trafic for updates will be disabled (it won't tell you about updates anymore).
However, if you want to remove check mark as well, you need to take settings.sol file from APPDATAFOLDER\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys and spread it to each user in the same folder (with Active Setup for example). Now, not only technicaly, but also visualy update is turned off!

So apparently the Settings Manager page does not reflect the true settings if your mms.cfg file is correctly configured. The only way to test this is to run a packet analyzer and attempt to hit a page that uses flash: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/167/16701594.html
Testing auto-update notification settings
Administrators can verify the mms.cfg configuration has disabled auto-update by using a packet sniffer with the following test:
In mms.cfg, set AutoUpdateDisable=0 to allow auto-update. Verify that auto-update is enabled in Settings Manager.
Add the auto-update setting:
AutoUpdateInterval=0
With this setting, Flash Player requests the version file every time it starts and the request will appear in the network request traffic.
Open a web page with Flash content to start Flash Player. A simple page with a single piece of Flash content is best, to minimize the network traffic in the packet sniffer log. The packet sniffer will show the auto-update request traffic to http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/
Note: Avoid using www.macromedia.com as your test page, since the auto-update request will be lost in the other file requests.
Set the AutoUpdateDisable to 1 to disable auto-update notification.
Open a web page with Flash content to start Flash Player. There should be no version file request traffic.
I have tested this on a Win7x64 computer and analyzed the packets. No packets for http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/ were found. Let me know if anyone else can confirm this.
Thanks.

When trying to update or add new apps to our daughters iTouch she gets and error saying "cannot connnect to iTunes stores." What to do? We have reset the password, gone into the apple store and so much more.

How do I stop iOS update notifications in the middle of the night?

How do I stop the iOS update notifications in the night. I do not need bright white update message while sleeping.

Settings App > Notification Center > App Store. You can take it out of Notifications altogether, or adjust the settings. (Turning OFF Show in Lock Screen might be enough).

I AM USING VR5.0 HOW DO I STOP GETTING UPDATE NOTIFICATIONS FOR BETA UPDATES INSTEAD OF JUST WHEN UPDATE IS FINALIZED FOR GENERAL USE?

MY QUES SUMS UP THE ISSUE.....I ONLY WANT UPDATE NOTIFICATIONS FOR THE FINAL UPDATE OF A NEW VERSION

You settings and such are in a separate place and not in the Firefox program folder as has been the case since the browser was known as Phoenix 0.1
Your settings like Bookmarks, history and such are in a Profile. If you uninstall Firefox and then install same or another version you will find that your settings are still there since it will use the last Profile used unless selected otherwise upon Firefox start.

How to stop update notifications for specific software updates

NOTE: I apologize in advance for the extreme length of my post & hope that someone will be willing to read it all & then be willing to help... Thanks!
I have been continually getting a Software Update notification for "Migration Assistant Update for Lion" (described "This update provides compatibility for migrating to a Mac running OS X Mavericks.") for quite a while now. IMHO, I consider my Mac knowledge/tech experience level (on a scale of 1-10, where 10 is a Mac Guru) to be about maybe 6 or 7 on average (&von a good day maybe an 8). That's assuming, of course, something like this can be quantified in that way. LOL! ;-) Anywho, I digress... Back to my question... As a general rule I don't immediately jump & install every single new update that comes out for all of my technology/electronics, no matter if Apple or Google tells me to do so. Obviously, I take all notices regarding security seriously & immediately research (unless it's forced upon me) it thoroughly before installing. This is ESPECIALLY true for apps in Apple's app store or Google Play Store, & I read a lot of the user reviews, as well as trusted tech gurus on the Web. Because NOT EVERY update is truly an improvement (mostly b/c of the failure to FULLY test them before releasing, more like unleashing, them to the public...Microsoft has mastered this FUBAR technique to absolute 'perfection', or something like that...haha!) OY, I'm so sorry for continually getting off topic. Okay, seriously now, here's what I want to know: Is there any way to tell Apple I don't want to install one of their recommended updates & also to stop bugging me about it? I'm specifically referring to the one I mentioned above. Everything I found online about Mavericks made me want to stay VERY FAR AWAY from it. I could be wrong or found bad info, but I don't think so. Please let me know if I'm wrong, because I really want to make the best/most informed decision possible. Thanks!
That being said, today I received notifications about Apple's latest security update (2014-001), plus one for Safari. I plan to install the security update for sure & most likely the one for Safari (even though I stopped using it months ago & started using either Chrome, Opera or Firefox - I still haven't picked a fave, but use Chrome 90% of the time... I'm open to suggestions about these apps too...)... But, I don't want to mess with the "Migration Assistant" one.
I would really love some help from my fellow Mac users... I apologize for being long winded & will try to reign in that nagging writing flaw in future posts. Also, I apologize if I've missed something that's totally obvious & easily found on this or other forums/sites, but I really did try to find an answer before posting my question here...
Thanks Mucho to all of you who were able to read through my mini-novel (& not fall asleep in the process) & actually found my question at the end!! I would like to say "THANK YOU!!" in advance for any & all help y'all are willing to provide!!! :-D
Hope you have a FANTABULOUS day! (^_-) Sincerely, Care ;-)

Wow, now that I see how extremely long my post is on screen, I'm a wee bit embarrassed... I'm hoping someone will be willing to overlook this annoying factor & provide a suggestion... :-/ Signed w/shame, Care :-/

HT201270 I have an iPad 3rd gen. A carrier settings update notification has appeared on my screen, and it doesn't do anything when I press either 'update' or 'not now' . Because the notification is still there, I am unable to use any apps or shut it down.

Have you tried a reset by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 20 seconds (maybe longer) until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider. Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.

I am unable to update any add-ons at all. Every time I try and install an add-on or even the new "show hidden add-ons" add-on, I get a server error. How do I fix this?

You may have triggered some intermittent database issues but it should be running smooth by now. Let us know if you still see server errors.
Also, if your addons appear to go missing after updating there is a workaround http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/09/28/issue-discovered-with-firefox-add-on-upgrades/ And there is a 7.0.1 fix on its way.
