10.6.8 downloaded, not installing

I am having issues with installing software updates for my iMac.  I had to manually download and install the 10.6.7 update (I chose the combo) from the apple site. It shows that the update is downloaded in my software updates but it will not install before or after restart.  I was successul at installing the 10.6.7 combo, but now I am having the same issue with 10.6.8.  I did download the update combo from the apple website, but when I try to install, I get an error stating "The installation failed. The installer could not install the software because there was no software found to install."  I am a newer (1-2 years) mac user so I'm having issues finding solutions.
Thanks in advance.
Btw, I also posted this under the iMac discussion, which I think was the wrong place.  Sorry for the duplicate.

ok, did that. verfied startup and that said ok.  also repaired disk permissions & restarted.  Tried the install again, still 10.6.7.
I did get these responses during the permissions verification:
There are several "permissions differ" responses as well as,
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.

  • Itunes download not installed indicating apple application support was not loaded

    A couple of days ago, an iTunes update came thru and the update failed.  Support advised to uninstall iTunes and re-install it.  I have uninstalled & installed iTunes several times now.  Installer goes thru full process, says install is successful but then I get these two errors and obviously it's not installed. 
    1. Apple Application Support was not found.  Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then reinstall iTunes again.  Error 2 (Windows 2)
    2.  Apple Application Support was not found.  Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then reinstall iTunes again.  Error 2
    I'm at my wits end.  Please help.

    Apple Application Support was not found.  Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, then reinstall iTunes again.  Error 2
    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

    previous programs. I went to download java and nothing works. It worked before so
    I dont know why it wont now. I get the error message internal error 2755, 1624,
    what does this mean?

    What version did you use?

  • Mavericks installed but app store shows "download" not "installed"

    I installed Mavericks on my new (Christmas 2013 Macbook Air) and updated all other apps associated with Mavericks.  When I visit the app store it shows download on Mavericks app but all others show "installed".
    I checked the app installed and in "about this mac" it shows I have 10.9.1.  Why won't the app store show it is installed and should I do something else to complete the install?

    Asked and answered a zillion times since the advent of OS X Lion as a direct download. Please do a forum search before posting.
    The Mac App Store is about apps, not whether an OS is installed. What you got from the MAS was an app, the OS X Mavericks Installer. It self-deletes when it finishes successfully installing the OS. The reason it says Download is in case you need to download the installer app again.

  • InDesign - download not installed correctly.

    I have just installed the InDesign trial on CC.
    All that is visible is the left hand tool bar and the header menu.
    Any clues as to how to resolve this please?
    I am only semi IT literate by the way.  Working on iMac.
    With thanks.

    Waht you are doing wrong is expecting an HP printer to work flawlessly with InDesign. Seriously. The number one contender on the list of printer manufacturers whose devices don't work well with InDesign is HP.
    Exoprt your doc to PDF, then print that from Acrobat.

  • IPod update not installing AND purchased game missing

    Not only is the latest iPod update I downloaded not installing properly (it just sits there saying "iPod Updating..." and hours go by with no result), but the Tetris game I bought isn't even there anymore after I restarted my computer once. I go to my purchase history and it shows that I've bought. Alas! Nothing! Help?

    have the same problem!!
    did you get any feedback from anybody?
    1. cannot locate the game on itunes
    2. i did not update/sync with ipod

  • I have ios 5.1.1. When I sync to iTunes, my purchased apps no longer work. They blink but do not open. The only way I have been able to solve this, is as follows: I delete one of the apps and then re-download and install it. Then, all my apps work.

    My new iPod touch 64 Gig has a problem after syncing with iTunes. My purchased apps no longer work. I touch them and they seem to try to open but they do not.
    The only way I have found to fix this is as follows:
    I delete one of the purchased apps. Then I go to the App Store and re-download and install the same app. After that, all my apps work again.
    Please help.

    Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

  • I am trying to download and install adobe reader, but it is not working. Everytime I try, I get the download but when I try to install it, it goes somewhere but not on my screen for me to install. If I try to install again, it says only one copy can be in

    I am trying to download Adobe Reader, I have Windows 7 on my PC. Every time I get the download, I click on it to install the program, and I get the usual messages but I never get the install message. When I try the download again, I get a message telling me only one copy of the program can go on the computer. When I check the program list, it is not there. I have to restore my computer before I can attempt the download and install again. I have tried this at least 6 times but cannot install Adobe Reader. Please help me out with this. I really like this product and prefer to use it. I had o originally delete the program, due to an update conflict.

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

    I'm using a mid 2014 13" rmbp. I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

    It's something to do with the main user account (not iTunes account) on my Mac because I logged in with another account and it downloaded fine, I installed it on the HDD and even though the date in App Store was 16th October 2014, it is the full installer of 10.10.2.
    To try to resolve this problem, I have copied the installer app elsewhere and deleted it but App Store still will not allow me to download it with my main user account yet just allowed me to update iTunes.
    I had a brainwave last night that it might have been related to me changing the default downloads folder to one not on my boot drive (to save disk space on my main boot drive) but having changed it back, tried again, rebooted and tried yet again, deleted my App Store preferences. nothing has worked.

  • HT201210 My download for iOS 7 was interrupted, it has downloaded but not installed. it goes through routine Terms & Agreements and everything, but when i try to update it tries to verify the update then says that the update is not available.

    I dont understand, when i try to update it will go through routine apple stuff, then it it will say " Software Update Unavailable (under) Software Update is not available at this time. Try again later." The thing is that i was downloading it and my wi-fi had restarted for some unknown reason and it downloaded onto my phone but not installed. and at the moment it is really bothering me because I have waited a long time for iOS 7 and I am not being allowed to update my phone to it and i just wanted to know how to fix it. Thank you.

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to download it right now. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

  • I had upgraded to FF 4.0.1 a while ago. Last night I got a bubble telling me that FF 4.1.0 was available and I should download and install. This version does not seem to exist. What is this about?

    I had installed FF 4.0.1 and have been using it for a while. I am running Win XP Pro, SP2. Last night a messge came up informing me that FF 4.1 was now available and that it would be advisable to download and install it. I did this and everything seemed to work fine but when I look at the 'About Firefox' info under 'Help' it still tells me that I am running 4.0.1. Everything still seems to be functioning well but this disturbs me as it does not seem to have been a FF message. Can you please tell me if such a message was sent out, and if so, why, seeing as the version does not seem to have changed?

    To ensure that no malicious software has been installed, try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
    * Malwarebytes - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
    * SuperAntiSpyware - http://www.superantispyware.com
    * Ad-Aware - http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php
