10.2.6 I can't get the update because I "Have insufficient memory"

Hey, I got this Mac used and I don't know much about Macs, but I do know I have about 15 Gigs of memory, and it won't let me install the update from 10.2.6 to 10.2.8 because it says I have insufficient memory. I've had this problem with other programs as well. Any ideas?

Tough call, but here's a basic maintenance tip which might or might not
help out...
First, to repair the main drive:
1) Boot your mac into single user mode by holding down command-S while you boot.
2) At the prompt type: fsck -fy <hit return>
3) If it find any errors and fixes them, run it again until it doesn't.
4) Type: reboot <hit return>
Also, I highly recommend you upgrade that computer to 10.3. It'll run faster and smoother on that machine. You could probably find a copy on ebay without breaking the bank. You could try 10.4 too, but I'd recommend more RAM for that. That said, you might want a bit more RAM anyway.
I mention the upgrade because installing it (using the Archive/Install option) will probably clear up system bugs like that and it's worth it for the improved system.

  • I have Elements 10 and a Nikon D7100. PSE10  CR 6.7 does not support the 7100 NEF. How can I get the updates to do this?

    I have Elements 10 and a Nikon D7100. PSE10  CR 6.7 does not support the 7100 NEF. How can I get the updates to do this?

    The D7100 requires camera raw 7.4 which is not compatible with Photoshop Elements 10.
    Your two main options are
    1) Buy a newer version of Photoshop Elements
    2) Use the Adobe DNG converter to convert the NEF files to DNG files which can then be used by Photoshop Elements 10.

    I have downloaded adobe camera raw 8.7 . Closed all adobe programs . Reopen PS cc6 , it is still using  camera raw 8.2 . How can I get the updated plug in to become active ?

    Please clarify your version of Photoshop.
    There is no CC6.
    There is
    Photoshop CS6
    Photoshop CC
    Photoshop CC 2014
    Also, what is your operating system?

  • I have been unable to download the iphone software v5.1.  I keep getting the timing out message.  Is there someway to set my network connections to allow the download?  Can I get the update some other way?

    The Huntress is correct, I have missed that you have an iPhone 3G
    Usually iTunes will tell you in that case, that iOS 4.2.1 the newest version for your phone.
    If you don't have an iPhone 3G, network connections timing out can be a security software problem:

  • I can't get the updates on my phone because I got a new Apple account

    I just recently deleted my old email that was connected with my Apple account. Then Apple wouldn't let me update the apps on my phone with the old account because it was disabled. So I made a new Apple account with my new email address but I can't get the updates for my apps on my iPhone, can someone help me please?

    Apps will ALWAYS be tied to the account from which they were purchased.  They will ALWAYS have to be updated using the account from which they were purchased.
    Why didn't you just contact itunes support and get your account enabled?
    Creating a new account generally casues problems.

  • I have LR 5.7, can I get the update (6.0) without the cloud? I can not afford the monthly fees.

    I have Lightroom 5.7, only had it for 6 months, can I get the update that pops up when I open LR (6.0) without getting the cloud?

    I think the OP was expecting a free update (based on the poor wording of the marketing message inside LR 5.7), not a paid for upgrade.
    Adobe really are their own worst enemies at times tending to unintentionally mislead customers with these marketing teasers.

    What happens when you click on 'Help->Updates' option? Isn't it opening the 'Adobe Application manager' which shows all the updates. ~Andromeda

  • I am using 3.6. How can I get the update to look just like this version? I truly don't want to use IE or MSN but if that is all I have, then let me know. Thanks

    I am using 3.6 because I like how it spreads out my toolbars instead of just giving me the bookmarks in the corner and the lonesome firefox in the opposite corner. I know I can open the bookmark toolbar but it is not the same. I want the file, edit, view, history, bookmarks, tools, help toolbar across. How can I get the new firefox to do that

    This should duplicate the image that you posted as your preferred appearance for Firefox 5 in the above (request to be LOCKED) duplicate thread.
    '''Menu Bar'''<br />
    *right-click empty space at the end of the Tab Bar, click "Menu Bar" to place a checkmark
    *Menu Bar checked = Menu Bar on; Firefox button off
    *Menu Bar un-checked = Menu Bar off; Firefox button on
    *Other methods of doing the same:
    **click Firefox button > Options, click Menu Bar
    **Quick toggle Menu Bar on/off: ALT+V+T+M
    '''Tabs on Top'''<br />
    *right-click empty space at the end of the Tab Bar, click "Tabs on Top" to remove the checkmark
    *Tabs on Top checked = Tabs above toolbars
    *Tabs on Top un-checked = Tabs below toolbars
    *Other methods of doing the same:
    **click Firefox button > Options, click Tabs on Top
    **Quick toggle Tabs on Top on/off: ALT+V+T+T
    '''Separate Reload / Stop buttons and position of Home button'''<br />
    *Open the Customize window; do one of the following:
    **right-click the empty space at the end of the Tab bar, choose "Customize"
    **click Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout
    **if using the Menu Bar, click View > Toobars, click Customize
    **Quick open Customize window: ATL+V+T+C
    *the Reload and Stop buttons will be shown separate between the URL/Location bar and the Search Bar. While the Customize window is open, do one of the following, to keep the buttons separate:
    **drag the Stop button to the left of the Reload button
    **drag a "Space" between the Reload and Stop buttons
    **drag one or both buttons anywhere on the Navigation bar separated by a "Space" or another icon or reverse the order to Stop-Reload to keep them separate
    *drag the Home button to the right of the Search Bar
    *click "Done" at the bottom right of the Customize window when finished.

  • Where can I get the update from Adobe CS5 Web Prem to CS 5.5 Web Prem?

    When I purchased Adobe CS5 Web Premium, Adobe were giving customers this update. However, I got a new PC and don't have the update. I am not upgrading to CS6. Where can I get the upgrade?

    Ok Kapil.
    However, I can assure you, those who had purchased CS5 Web Prem were offered CS 5.5 Web Prem  free when it came out shortly after. As your fellow staff.
    If I have problems with cs5, will not be happy. So far so good.
    All the best.

  • How can you get the update on an iPad 1

  • My iPad 3 hasn't updated to iOS 6 yet. How can I get the update?

    My husband's iPad updated a few days ago. It prompted him to update. My iPad hasn't prompted me. Can I download the update somewhere?

    Either:
    Make sure your iPad is on external power (or maybe > 70% battery) and wi-fi (for faster download) and go to Settings/ General/ Software Update to do the update over the air, or
    Connect to iTunes and click the Check for Update button and install it this way.

  • Can't get the updater to load

    when i plug the ipod in and launch the updater, because all that it does is show a folder with a ! on it when it is on, it says that i need to stop all other applocations accessing it but their isn't anything. i even made all programs stop by the safly remove icon on my system tray. what should i do?

    okay...i think i might have figured it out...
    go to the explore icon in the library of limewire, then it opens to a new window where all of your limewire songs are...i played those songs from the new window instead of playing them from limewire, and the computer automatically played using iTunes. once the computer plays the song w/iTunes, it's in the iTunes library.
    if that makes sense to you...that's how i got it. its kind of tedious, but it's the only way i could figure out to do it. hope it works for you!
