10.6.8 update would not finish writing files

I am trying to update my os from 10.6.7 to current 10.6.8 but the installation process ( writing files) would not finish !!
The progress bar seems to be stuck at about 95%
How do I resolve this ?
I need to d/l lion

Hi,
Some Users have reported that Powering down their Router/Modem... Then Powering it up again and then re-downloading the Update has worked... You could try that...
Here's the link for the Combo Update should you need it:

  • HT2404 why is os X update taking so long I tried to download it and would not finish.

    why is os X update taking so long I tried to download it and would not finish downloading..

    It's been a few days since the original post.  If you use Software Update again now, do you still have this problem?
    Also, what is the name and version number of the update?  If you can't get Software Update to do it for some reason, you can search for that update on Apple Support, then download and install it manually.
    Before you do that, run Disk Utility (which is on Applications/Utilities).  Select "Macintosh HD" in the sidebar and go to the First Aid tab.  Click Verify Disk.  This will check to make sure there is nothing is wrong with your startup disk.  If there is a problem reported, that may be causing the problem with Software Update.

  • Creative cloud wont work yet i am signed in and paid up. It started when my CC updater would not update

    It started when my CC updater would not update. I went to adobe help forums and ultimately began the uninstall/re-install process.  (Win) Troubleshooting Creative Cloud Connection update from 1.0 to 1.0.5 
    Now I can not locate a download for the CC updater. So i am now without a creative cloud connector.  I am still signed into LR however.

    Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

  • The latest Yosemite update will not finish downloading

    MacBook Pro mid 2012
    I am in the middle of the latest Yosemite update. It requires a restart, so it restarted my computer. Then the normal white screen came up as it was turning on with the loading bar underneath the Apple logo. This is where the problem starts. When the loading bar is at the halfway point, the loading bar doesn't move anymore. I tried this update a couple weeks ago, and the same thing happened. I gave the update a couple hours and yet the loading bar doesn't move. If I force shutdown the computer with the power button, then turn the computer back on again, the update has not installed. I have a lot of storage space and a good internet connection, so I don't see what the problem is. Should i just wait for the next update and see what happens?

    Hi, I'm having the same issue right now...   it's been 3 hours!
    You said you force shutdown... does that just cancel the update and I should be good to go?... I'm thinking of not updating at all... very frustrating... I just need my computer.

  • My 2nd Gen iPod touch would not finish backing up to update to 4.2 firmware. So I tried to restore it, and it failed to restore. It shows the "Connect to iTunes" logo and iTunes will not recognize it. How can I get iTunes to recognize it?

    with those symptoms, it might be worth checking on the possibility from this document:
