10.6.8 downloaded, but unable to install

I have downloaded 10.6.8, as the software update page stated. When I click "install" it prompted me to restart, however after restarting I'm still on 10.6.2. Any ideas?

Don't know what the problem is with Software Update, but try  using the 10.6.8 Combo update. Download it first, put it on the Desktop and then install it from Safe Boot (which will eliminate any conflicts with third party software) by holding down the Shift key at the startup chime. Will take longer than a regular boot.

    in this recent thread I can't install ios 8.0.1 , our friend bobsuefert says:
    "Be glad you can't install IOS 8.0.1 it's been withdrawn already. It caused more problems then it fixed."
    Did you mean " stuck " on searching... ??

    I have a iMac 5,1 made b/t 7/23/07-7/29/07 but have OS X 10.6.8 w/ 2GB mem but unable to install Maverick, Garage band and iPhoto. Would installing Snow Leopard 10.6.8 make it possible to install Maverick?  Please help.  Thanks!

    The highest OS X version you can install on your model iMac is OS X Lion 10.7.5.
    To get to this! you would need to purchase the retail OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD, first.

    OS X 10.7 Lion is no longer available, directly, from the Mac App Store. You need to contact Apple at 1-800-MYAPPLE and ask for retail software sales and tell them you would like to upgrade your Mac to OS X 10.7 Lion and they will give you a special download code to download it from the Mac App Store.

  • Running iTunes 10.7 on Mac OS X 10.8. Downloaded but can't install iTunes 11.0.2. Why not, can I

    Running iTunes 10.7 on Mac OS X 10.8.2. Downloaded but can't install iTunes 11.0.2. Why not, how can I & should I?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    The latest iTunes version is 11.0.1 version. 11.0.2 does not exist. Have you tried opening Apple menu > Software Update and install iTunes 11.0.1? If it doesn't show up, you have already iTunes 11.0.1

  • Unable to read information of application in app store. Still can download but unable to read the application infor before downloading

    Hi,
    Please help, unable to read information of application in app store. Still can download but unable to read the application infor before downloading.
    I'm using iphone4, ios 6

    Yes it sounds like your application could be corrupt.
    First I would make sure you don't have a program like backup software or virus protection trying to read the files when you try to start the application. If not,
    Do you have any backups or data exports? If so, I would try to restore them for the application
    If you do what EsbHelper suggests, you will have to recreate the database. I think he is missing a few steps.
    If you are going to try to recreate the application, you need to copy your outline rules files calc scripts and report scritps (.otl, CSC, REP and rul files) to s saved directory.
    If you delete the directory using the file system, you orphan things in the security file. It's better to try to do it from EAS.
    Once it has been deleted, and recreated from EAS, then copy back in the objects. You will have everything but data and security. those will have to be recreated.
    As aI said first, the best way to do this is from some sort of backup. othersiwe it can get a bit messy

  • Downloaded but can't install - keep getting an error message because I never upgraded Keynote to 9.0, just pages and numbers

    Downloads but can't install the upgrade because I never upgraded Keynote, just Keynote and Numbers so I keep getting the error message about Keynote, which I don't use.  I just want to upgrade Pages and Numbers.

    If you purchased Pages and Numbers from the MAS:

  • Adobe premier elements 11 downloaded but will not install

    adobe premier elements 11 downloaded but will not install?

    Hunt
    What you just wrote may have revealed the Photoshop Elements Premiere Elements integration consideration. If you have Premiere Elements 11, you need Photoshop Elements 11 for the integration between the programs to produce the DVD version of the Photoshop Elements Slideshow.
    All along I was picturing Meyerswalter already in Premiere Elements 11/Publish+Share/Disc/DVD and being told to install Premiere Elements to get the burn to disc accomplished.
    But, if Meyerswalter is using Premiere Elements 11 and a non integrated version of Photoshop Elements for this matter, that could very well fit.
    So, Meyeswalter, so that we can dispel those thoughts
    a. What versions of Photoshop Elements are you using with Premiere Elements 11? And, are you in the Photoshop Elements Slideslide Show Editor using the Output of Burn to Disc DVD or Edit with Premiere Elements Editor and getting the load software message somewhere along the line?
    b. To prove this point, if you have not already, what happens if you take Photoshop Elements out of the equation. Import some media into Premiere Elements 11 and try to burn to disc from there Publish+Share/Disc/DVD?
    If that is the core of the issue, I will post a list of Photoshop Elements Premiere Elements integrated combos as a guideline for you.
    If this is the core of the issue, you could always keep the non Photoshop Elements 11 version that you have, output the slideshow to a wmv file sized for DVD and then import that into Premiere Elements 11 via its Add Media. More on that later if necessary since right now I am speculating on an explanation for what you are encountering.
    Thanks.

    You can probably get a better response by posting on the windows Compatibility forum here:

    Hi sandeep2911
    Because you are using an unlocked BlackBerry, the device software is limited to what the original provider has released.  Let me know who your original provider is and I can see what the latest version of software available is.
    Alternatively, you can plug in your BlackBerry to your PC and go to www.blackberry.com/update to install the latest software available.
    Thanks

  • Mac OS X update downloads but won't install

    When I try to update Mac OS X combined update 10.7.4 on MBP, it downloads but won't install. I get a message that says it couldn't expand and may be corrupted. This has happened multiple times now.
    I thought it might be due to lack of space on the hard drive so i cleared some space (there's now at least 49GB space) and it still won't work. I also have updates for Motion Supplemental Control and Final Cut Pro X supplemental that do the same. Tried doing it one by one, and tried downloading myself but the problem seems to be the expanding installing not the downloading.
    Anyone else had this problem and solved it??

    You may have a permissions issue that's preventing access to the downloaded files.
    Open Disk Utility from the Utilities and click the "Repair Disk Permissions" option.
    Once complete, try installing the update again.

  • Windows 10 downloads but does not install...

    windows 10 downloads but does not install on my  Stream 13-c010nr (OS 8.1). Says I need 5 GB more before it can install. Should I factory reset? Any suggestions?

    If you can run the recovery, it should free up enough space although in this thread, it did not.  It might also help to download the Windows 10 ISO file and run it from a USB.  You do not have to run any updates to Windows 8.1 if you do that, you can upgrade right after restoring to the factory configuration.
