10.4.5 update and iPod updater

Hi all,
I have a G4 PB 15 inch running 10.4.4 (everything working perfect!) I also have a 60G ipod video edition, also working perfect.
I have seen the posts about problems with the 10.4.5 update and also the ipod updater so I have not installed them as yet.
My question is am I worrying too much? Should I install the updates and get current? I mean it is scary because I cannot afford right now for the PB to be down. I use windows file sharing ALOT so if the 10.4.5 update breaks that I'm back to USB key.
I guess I need a recommendation. To install or not to install! Once again everything is working perfectly as I sit.
Mark

Usually upgrading you have no worries:

I might add there is a forum where you can discuss Windows file sharing here:

Since there are several methods of file sharing, you can ask there if the one you use has any issues.

  • The difference between itunes update and ipod update

    Could someone please tell me what the ipod updater is. Is this worth downloading? I thought you only updated itunes.
    Thanks, Gregg

    Sure, if you have an iPod, then the updater is used to make sure your iPod is running the latest firmware.

  • ITunes and iPod updater won't recognize iPod

    I'm running Windows XP and it shows the iPod is there but it won't show up in iTunes and iPod updater after 'initializing' for a good 5-10 minutes says either 'could not recognize the iPod' or if it does let me restore give the 'Firmware update failure. Diskwrite error.' I have the latest iTunes and iPod update and went through all the steps in the 'Windows recognizes iPod but iTunes does not' Troubleshooting help section. All these problems started when I tried to update with the new iPod updater software and got an error, everything worked fine before. I have also tried using a friends USB cable the problem is obviously in the Nano itself. Is there any way to safely format without using the iPod updater? or what should I try doing next?
    Also it seems like when the nano isn't plugged into a power source it drains the battery, with nothing showing on the screen because it always starts charging when I hook it up to the computer even though it was fully charge before.
    Thanks for any help.

    Hello,
    I too am having this exact same problem. My iPod nano was working perfectly until this "latest update" Since I installed that update my itunes and my ipod updater will NOT recognize my iPod. I am getting all the same error messages as you.
    I have done EVERYTHING recommeded in the support pages. Reinstall, uninstall, install, reboot I've done it all a hundred times. I have over 5 pages of support documents I printed up and I followed them to the T. I have 10 different USB ports including 3 2.0 USB ports. My windows recognizes the iPod instantly, but the updater will not.
    I 'm starting to think it's a problem with the update software.
    Please, if anybody has any advice other than "www.apple.com/support/ipod" please post something. I have had my Nano since October and never had a problem with it and I really, really miss it right now.
    Thanks

  • Unable to run bapis for project status update and date update together

    Hi Experts,
    I have a requirement to update the dates and status of a project WBS at level 4. I am trying to do update the CJ02 Transaction using standard BAPI available. I need to do both Date update and status update in the same LOOP PASS   i am using the below mention bapi. when i am doing so i am getting an error Project 'A._____' has been currently processed by ID i.e. my id.
    I have tried putting  a wait for 2 seconds in the code but its still not working. please find the order below in which i am calling the bapi.
    Loop at itab.
    if  date_changed = 'X'.
          CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN'
          READ TABLE it_error WITH KEY message_type = c_e.
          IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    Commit
            CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
                 EXPORTING
                      wait   = c_x
                 IMPORTING
                      return = s_ret.
       endif.
    endif.
    if Status_change = 'X'.
          CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_PS_INITIALIZATION' .
          CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUS2054_SET_STATUS'
          READ TABLE t_result WITH KEY message_type = c_e.
          IF sy-subrc NE 0.

                 TABLES
                      et_return = t_ret.
            CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'

                 IMPORTING
                      return = s_ret.
         ENDIF.
    endif.
        WAIT UP TO 4 SECONDS.
    endloop.

    Try to use
    SET UPDATE TASK LOCAL.
    before each BAPI call.
    Did you try to debug through your code, leaving sufficient time between BAPI calls? If it does work like that, then the above statement might help.

  • HT1365 How can I get my iPhone 4 to update my updates from my app store of it keeps telling me error 3150 or it tell me to refresh the page after updates and the updates are still there asking me to update them again

    How can I get my iPhone 4 to update my updates from my app store of it keeps telling me error 3150 or it tell me to refresh the page after updates and the updates are still there asking me to update them again?

    Make sure iTunes on the computer is logged into the account on the phone.
    Plug the iPhone in.
    In the popup window warning about wiping your phone, hit cancel.
    In the left pane of iTunes, the phone icon should be there.
    Right click on it, select transfer purchases.
    Note: this will only transfer music bought from iTunes. Not mp3's from amazon or ripped from CD's.

  • Service Packs, Security Updates and Cumulative Updates

    I would like to find a  document that would help me understand and clarify Service Packs, Security Updates and Cumulative Updates versions and relationships.
    Things like. Cumulative Updates include old Security Updates. Cumulative Updates do not overwrite applied Security Updates, etc.
    For instance,
    I am upgrading a server from: 10.0.5512 (SQL 2008 SP3, After Security Update MS12-70)  To: 10.0.5861 (SQL 2008 SP3 CU17).
    Would the MS12-70 (2754849) I installed still be present after installing CU17? The reason for doubt was that I saw another version of MS12-70 that includes
    CU 1 to 7(KB2716435). So makes me wonder about it.
    I am probably not able to explain myself right but, the idea is to find a document that can explain how the build information and versioning works. 
    Some how I have the idea that Cumulative updates would not include Security Updates.
    Thanks beforehand

    Hi,
    Below will give you list of Service packs and Cumulative updates for SQL Server
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321185
    http://sqlserverbuilds.blogspot.co.uk/
    Security updates are for Windows not SQL Server. SQL server releases Cumulative updates after that a comprehensive service pack is released which includes all fixes that were done in Cumulative updates.
    Cumulative updates fix only a certain type of problem(for which they are created) and should only be applied if facing issue
    Service packs are more through and Inclusive and should be applied and contains many fixes and sometimes introduces few features as well. SP are more thoroughly tested as compared to CU For Cumulative
    update from Microsoft:
    We recommend that you test hotfixes before you deploy them in a production environment.
    This cumulative package is intended to correct only the problems that are described in this article. Apply it only to systems that are experiencing these specific problems.
    This cumulative update contains all the hotfixes and all the updates that were included with the previous SQL Server 2014 update release.
    Windows patch has hardly any relation to SQL server SP and CU.

  • Direct update and flexible update

    Hi BWers,
    I want to know the difference between direct update and flexible update in detail. Could someone explain me in detail with an example? or send me some documents explaining this clearly?
    Regards,
    RV.

    hi
    Using the fleixble update method for master data loads you need to create update rules for the
    InfoSource and the InfoObject. The direct update loads the data directly without going through the
    update rule layer.
    The presence of Update Rules allows for extra processing and data transformation capability. Also the
    flexible update makes it possible to load data from several sources to the InfoObject, since all
    you need to do it to create update rules between the InfoSource and your InfoObject. An example
    of using this is when you need to populate certian master data attributes but the data is
    coming as transaction data. Sometimes the descriptions are also a part of transaction data,
    whereas you may want to load them as text rather than in the cube (this happens a lot in CRM datasources).
    So here flexible updates are useful.

  • Differnce b/w flexible update and direct update

    Hi gurs,
    please tell me the difference between flexible update and direct update.
    Rakesh

    Hi Rakesh,
       Normally  when we upload the master data we can select DIRECT UPDATE .. or Flexible update... ..
      if you select Direct Update means.. there is no need to create  Update rules..
    but this is only  possible for master data..
       if you select  Flexible update means..  we  need to cretae Update Rules also..,  this is mainly for transactional data..
    Direct update is generally used for Master data infoobject & here no update rules are used, that means data from source system passes though transfer structure, rules, & communication structure directly to Data target i.e. InfoObject.
    Flexible Update - generally used for transaction data ( nowadays can be used for few master data as well) has another set of rule after communication structure i.e. update rule before moving data to data target.
