10.4.6 updaters for IiMac. What's the difference between the choices?

It seems there are 3 choices for this update:
1) Going through the "software update" pulldown menu on my desktop which is about 100mb
2) On the "apple downloads" page there is one that is 163mb that seems appropriate and
3) a "combo" version that is 191mb that also seems appropriate
I simply used the one from the pulldown menu on my desktop, but what is the difference between the 3 and are there advantages/disadvantages to any specific method or version so for the next time there is an update i pick the more "appropriate" version?
Thanks

just choose "software update" from your "system preferences" to do the job. It checks your system and chooses teh updates that might be needed. It's probably because you own an "intel mac' the update in software update is only 100 mb. You don't need the combo therefore (combo for 'intel macs' and 'old macs').

  • What is the difference between the iPhoto that came pre-downloaded on my MacBook and the iPhoto available for download on the App Store?

    I have had my MacBook for 5 years and ever since upgrading to the new system which added the App Store to my computer, I have been curious about the difference between the iPhoto that came pre-downloaded when I purchased my computer 5 years ago and the iPhoto available for purchase on the App Store. What makes the iPhoto from the App Store so different that I have to pay $15 for it, when I already have it for free on my computer?

    Lots and lots of new features - and since you have upgraded to Mavericks much better operation
    For information on what has changed there are many. many reviews on the web as well os a writup on the App store recapping the new features of the latest version vs the previous version
    as to your choice - totally personal - do or don't - you choose - it does no involve anyone here in any way

  • What's the difference between the LRU and NRU strategy for stateful session bean?

    Hi,
    Does anybody know the difference between the LRU and NRU strategy for
    stateful session bean?
    Thanks,
    Levi

    LRU makes the assumption that the bean that has been used a lot recently is
    likely to be used again.
    NRU simply removes the beans that have not been used for a stipulated amount
    of time.
    The algorithm for the LRU is much more complicated than the NRU. I think BEA
    recommends LRU for better performance and NRU when you have memory
    constraints.

  • What is the difference between the passcode on my iPhone 5 and a password?  I am locked out of my phone.

    What is the difference between the passcode on my iPhone 5 and a password?  I am locked out of my phone.

    Not entirely sure what you are asking, but a passcode to unlock an iOS device is normally 4 digits long (so is a 4 digit code), though you can make it alphanumeric and longer (so effectively becomes a password).
    If you don't know the passcode to unlock your phone or it's showing the disabled screen then there are instructions on this page for how to reset a device : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 - you should then be able to restore/resync your content to it.

  • What'z the difference between the Commercial Invoices and

    What'z the difference between the Commercial Invoices and
    Invoices/Excise Invoices? Also I understand that we can combine 2~3
    invoices and can create one commercial invoice? If it is possible, how
    to create the same?
    cheers
    shalsa007....

    Hello,
    A commercial invoice is a bill for the goods from the seller to the buyer. Commercial invoices are utilized by customs officials to determine the value of the goods in order to assess customs duties and taxes.
    In general there is no standard form for a commercial invoice although they tend to contain many of the following features:
    •     seller's contact information
    •     buyer's contact information
    •     consignee's contact information (if it is different from the buyers)
    •     invoice date
    •     a unique invoice number
    •     sales terms (usually in incoterm format)
    •     payment terms
    •     currency of sale
    •     full quantities and description of merchandise (Generally this includes unit price and total price. Product descriptions should be consistent with the buyer's purchase order. Including the Harmonized System commodity codes can be helpful, especially in countries that are WTO members.)
    Excise invoice “Original for Buyer copy”, whether  prices are inclusive or exclusive of excise duty.
    The invoice in which the Excise duties are included.
    As per Indian tax system, Excise duty (16%) is payable by each manufacturing unit on the value of manufactured goods / on the value added. The manufacturing plant is supposed to submit an excise duty report on fortnightly / monthly basis. Various registers (RG1, RG23A, RG23C, PLA) are maintained for that purpose, which record all the transactions including movement of goods, cenvat credit available and cash balance available.
    In SAP, we use transaction j1id for configuration and j1iin, j2i7, j1i5, j2i5, j2i6, j1ip for creating, extracting and printing excise invoice.

  • What is the difference between the generic accessories and the original apple brand?

    I am looking on Amazon for a new cable, wall charger, car charger, and headphones with built in mic. There were a lot of generic brands for cheap and I was wondering what the differences between the apple and the generic brands were. Also I looked on the apple store and they were selling Belkin items. Is Belkin a good brand?

    Belkin a a good thrid-party manufacturer. Most generic cable work but some do not. Griffen in another good brand too.
    The differences in in the quality of the parts and the quality assurance that go into making the part.

    DBA_HIST_SQL_PLAN- data dictionary view also contain execution plan information for each child cursor bun in workload repository.Actually this view captures information from V$SQL_PLAN and is used with the DBA_HIST_SQLSTAT .
    dbms_xplan.display_cursor - function displays explain plan of any cursor loaded in the cursor cache. See more information below links:

  • What is the differences between the older version of Oracle Financials and the 11 i

    What is the differences between the older version of Oracle Financials and 11i?

    Vijay,Thanks for your answer,but I am still not clear about it,I have a instance to describe my question at detail.
        If there is a final product A, and the planning strategy for A is 20(MTO), the procurement type of A is F(external procurement) at the view mrp2 in the material master datas.
    step1: I creat a sales order.
    step2: run MRP for A.
    step3: transfer the purchase requistion into a purchase order,and the field of acc.***.cat. in the purchase order will be filled out M automatically, because the acc.***.cat. in the planning strategy 20(MTO) is set with E.
        Well, the purchase order is created, what is the relationship between the sales order and the purchase order? What will be happened about costing between the SO and the PO?
        If I delete the E, I make the PO become a standard PO, what is difference between standard PO and the PO including E?
    Best Regards
    Bob

  • What is the difference between the following cases... ?

    What is the symbol *%2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7* used for?
    What is the difference between the following cases about the symbol *%2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7* ?
    Case 1:
    "%NEW_JAVA_HOME%"\bin\java %COH_OPTS% -Xms1g -Xmx1g com.tangosol.net.DefaultCacheServer
    %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7Case 2:
    com.tangosol.examples.%EXAMPLE%.Driver contacts %EXAMPLES_DIR%\..\resource\contacts.csv
    %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7Thank you

    It just passes whatever else was on the command line to the "java" command. So if you have a Windows test.cmd file that looks like this:
    java %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7Then you can pretty much use "test" anywhere you would use "java", because it passes through its command line parameters (or at least up to 7 of them).

  • What is the difference between the 4th generation ipad and the ipad 3 with retnia display?

    What is the difference between the 4th generation iPad and the "New iPad with retina display"? i don't quite understand. are they stilll the same size or would i have to get a different case?

    The 3rd and 4th generation iPads are the same size. The 4 has a faster processor, and a little better iSight camera for FaceTime. The 4 also has the lightning connector so your old cable will not work with the iPad 4.
    You should always check with the manufacturer of the case to see if it will fit. You can probably do that on the manufacturers website.
    This might be of some interest to you.

  • What is the difference between the normal function module and bapi function

    hi,
    what is the difference between the normal function module and bapi function module.

    Hi
    BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
    A BAPI is remotely enabled function module ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
    You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
    A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access. Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
    BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. in this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.

  • Whats the difference between the iphone 5 and the i phone 4?

    whats the difference between the iphone 5 and the iphone 4?

    Since Apple has released no details, and nobody even claims to know the answer to this, it would only be speculation.
    Speculation about unreleased information on Apple products is strictly against the terms of this messageboard, and is prohibited.
    If someone were to even speculate, it would be grounds for deletion of the thread. You will find out when the rest of us do.

  • What's the difference between the ssd and hd?

    I'm in the process of buying a Mac book pro but wanted to know and understand What's the difference between the ssd and hd?

    DDHeadley wrote:
    What's the difference between the ssd and hd?
    HD = hard drive, several metal platters stacked and data read/written magnetically.
    Pro's - less expensive and higher capacity of storage. Can scrub the drive of unwanted data. Unlimited write capability.
    Con'- bit rot can cause data and operating system to not be as reliable, mechanical moving parts means you can't move the machine while it's on.
    SSD = Solid State Disk, basically memory chips that can store data in a permanent fashion without power (like Random Access Memory needs)
    Pro's - faster read/write speeds in most cases. Shock resistant makes them ideal for portable uses.
    Con's - new technology issues, one cannot securely erase the data on them, unless it's ground into a fine powder. Limited write capability means they will wear out eventually like USB thumb drives do. Wear leveling (TRIM) is used to spread the writes evenly across the drive to maximize it's lifespan.
    If you can respect the machine, take care of it and not move it while it's on, or need to scrub the drive of unwanted data, or need higher capacity of storage without paying a fortune for a very large SSD, then a HD makes a lot of sense.
    It really comes down to your privacy, do you want a machine you cannot delete files off of?
    Do you want to carry around a machine that has all your dirty secrets etched in it for anyone with the right software to uncover?
    A computer is a personal machine, why it's called a Personal Computer. We all do things we sometimes are later ashamed of and want to erase all memory of it.
    Can't do that with a SSD, it knows all and you will be forced to destroy the machine to rid it of the unwanted data.
