Aborted install process while doing a 10.4.6 combo update

In another forum (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2193395#2193395) I'm helping someone who has problems with mail.
Cutting a long story short, he finally had to re-installed Mail from the orginal OSX DVD (intel Mini) and I need him to update now from 10.4.5 to 10.4.6 just for Mail.
He downloaded the combo update for his particular Mini and the process aborts at 9% installation repeatedly. Suggestions for a workaround will be highly appreciated.

Hi Sijmons.
I was following that thread and I saw a couple of problems with the procedure followed there.
For one thing, a system update shouldn't be installed blindly. It'd be better to tell the user to read something like this beforehand:
Installing software updates
Another problem is that the user mentioned that his/her "disks are 10.4.6" (yet his/her profile until that post said 10.4.5). Installing any update with the same version number as the original install disks is a mistake, combo or not:
Don't install older versions of Mac OS than what comes with your computer
What's a "computer-specific Mac OS X release"?
Thus, after the update failure, the only safe thing to do would be to reinstall the system software using the original installation disks, as he/she did. If his/her install disks are indeed 10.4.6, nothing else can fix an "update" to the same version number. Fortunately, he/she had not been using the computer for too long, and this wasn't a big deal.

    While doing BDC in VL02N how to update POSNR in BDC program.I need to choose purticular line number and should update that line item.kindly send me a BDC sample code for this .

    You better use a BAPI like BAPI_OUTB_DELIVERY_CHANGE.
    Else you could use function code POPO_T  "Place cursor" and then you will have to use field names like LIPSD-G_LFIMG(01) in your BDCDATA.

    Hi Drgeert-
    The hub may not be broken per se, but Apple has made adjustments to the limits on current that can be drawn from ports.
    You probably need a new hub.

  • Does reapplying 10.4.11 combo update negate the latest security updates?

    I've reapplied the 10.4.11 combo update in an attempt to trouble shoot some problems I've been having. My question is, "Does reapplying 10.4.11 combo update negate the latest security updates?" I've checked my computer using the "Software Update" option, and I'm given the message that I'm up to date. But that may be due to the fact that there's a receipt of the security update in my receipt's folder.

    Steve:
    If the Combo update was downloaded previous to the last security update being available it will not have included the security update. If the Combo update was downloaded after the security update was available, it will have included the latest security update. As new updates become available, the Combo update is updated so that it includes the latest updates. If you are concerned that the security update may not have been included in the Combo update, or you are sure that you downloaded the Combo update a while previous to the availability of the latest security update you can either:
    1. Download the stand alone security update and install it over what is already on your computer, or
    2. Download the current Combo update and install it.
    In either case, remember to Repair Disk Permissions in Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility before and after installation.

  • Problem in Refurbishment processing while doing GR.

    Dear experts,
    I'm working on refurbishment processing.
    I have done all the steps as below:
    I have a material for equipment for which I have 3 valuation types:
    C1 - New items
    C2 - Repaired Items
    C3 - Damaged Items.
    1. Equipment creation with serial number allocating the valuation type C1 installed at a F/L
    2. I have 2 no.s of the same in stock with the valuation type C1.
    Now I got a problem with equipment which is installed and needs to send it to the vendor for repair.
    I have changed the valuation type to C3 of the equipment in serial number data, and dismantled using t code IE4N with movement type 202.
    After that I have issued one material (equipment) from stock to the same cost center and then went to change mode of the equipment (IE02) in structure tab I have mentioned the F/L.
    Now I have created a Refurbishment order for the damaged equipment, mentioning from valuation C3 to valuation C2 in the order.
    I have mentioned the Service number, qyt and price in the External screen of the Operations tab. Released the order. I got PR. (I have mentioned only services for the PR, no materials)
    I have created the PO w.r.t the PR from the refurbishment order.
    After that the vendor has completed the services and returned the material (equipment), for tha I'm following the GR w.r.t refurbishment order i.e, IW8W.
    I have entered the Order number then enter.
    There in the new screen it shows,
    Change charge / valuation type+Post GR. this is having tick bydefualt.
    Posting date: 28.05.2009
    Document date28.05.2009
    Valuation type C2 in gray mode
    Plant 1250 in gray mode
    stor. location 1040 optinal entry
    Then I have ticed the box for Deliv. Compl
    Here I am not finding the material nuber or serial number.
    In the bottom of the screen it shhows the header
    Serila number        Material number       Materaildoc number    Batch/Valuation Type
    The headers are showing but no data under the header.
    While saving the document it gives error message as below:
    Select serial numbers
    Message no. CMFU106
    But there is no data of serial number to select.
    I have tried the same in IDES, there it is showing only Material numbe no serial number, but allowing to save the document. (the screen is bit different that of Devl. server, in IDES the header as I mentioned above is not appearing, just below the order number the Material number is displaying.)
    Can any one please help me in solving this error message?
    I am following the steps correctly? If not please tell me where I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Regards,
    Praveen.

    Dear Experts,
    I was able to complete the process through MIGO.
    I have changed the valuation type of the serial number master through IQ02 from C3 to C2. Then I have done the GR w.r.t the order. Now it has posted the document.
    There were some errors while doing this, like some settings missing in OBYC for GBB. That also I have rectified then it allowed for the GR.
    Surprisingly, it not allowing to post through IW8W where everything will change automatically, like Valuation type from C3 to C2 etc...
    I am not able to understand why this is not happening?
    The steps I followed would be work around.
    Can some please help me out ?
    Regards,
    Praveen.

    I wanted to do the iOS 8.0.2 update. This didn't work and my iPhone 5 turned off. Now it says that I have to connect ti iTunes. I tried to restore it but it always says that a mistake appeared. Now i can't use my iPhone anymore and i don't know what to do

    it took me 5 hours to get iTunes to sort my phone out!!

    I changed the USB ports and that appeared to work. BUT once my phone was on it did not ask if I wanted to restore from icloud ...... So I've lost all my settings and text and have no clue how to get them back. My iPhone is like new, which is rubbish coz it took me over a year to get it how I liked it!!

  • Does Windows SP2 contain all prior updates?

    Today is the big day.  The last computer component comes in so that I can start the processing of becoming a first time builder.  
    Microsoft sent me SP2 on cd.  After I install win xp from the CD (I presume SP1 is on the installation cd), do I need to go on line and run windows update before I install SP2 or does SP2 contain all the prior updates?
    Thanks.

    It includes all the major critical updates so you should install it first and then go on line for any others.

  • Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update unable to finish installing

    Hello:
    I have been having trouble installing the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update. This update is meant to fix a bigger problem I have had recently. I'll briefly describe the bigger problem.
    A few weeks ago, I downloaded the latest updates for iTunes, Security, and Quicktime. Now from what I've gathered, Quicktime 7.2 probably caused a few applications (Microsoft apps and Photoshop app) to have trouble opening because of "shared library errors". Even my Quicktime is having trouble working right now.
    This Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update is suppose to help resolve the issue, but it fails to install. Any insights as to what might be the actual problem installing the combo update would be greatly appreciated.

    I have an emac and recently upgraded to Mac OS X (10.4.10)
    I am using a wireless modem to connect to the internet. I am unable to download new versions of applications I already use.
    Error message:
    A networking error has occurred: Error NSURLErrorDomain - 1005 (-1005). Make sure you can connect to the internet, then try again.
    I have been advised to try several things, none of which worked.
    Can anyone help. This seems to be a problem with the OS X, as I was able to download before I upgraded to the latest version.

  • Can I resize my existing Bootcamp partition (leaving XP Pro behind) while doing a clean Win 7 install?

    I currently have a Bootcamp partition (30 Gb or so) running XP pro.  I want to switch to Win 7, which I understand requires a clean install since there is no upgrade path from XP directly to Win7.  While doing so I want to increase the size of my BC partition.  (I'm offloading iTunes and iPhoto to external drives and freeing up 60+ Gb so I can make a bigger partition)
    Do I just run Bootcamp Assistant and do the deed as if I were starting from scratch, but specify a larger partition?
    The full scenario is that I have an HP laptop running Win7, and XP pro in Bootcamp.  I want to swap them.  Any advice on the process?  Activate/Deactivate/Reactivate dance.  I realize this is a Windows question, but someone may have done this before.
    Thanks for any help. 

    contrary to kappy, you can buy and use CampTune to resize.
    you can't use a HP install on Mac.
    you need a retail Win7 to activate on a different motherboard.
    Start from scratch. Anything else is likely to have problems.

  • Error while doing GR in third party process

    Dear Friends,
    While doing Third party process, at GR (w.r.t. inbound delivery) the following message appears “Purchase order 4500000087 has no items” and stops creating GR. But the P.O has the Item. Do have any clue?
    Thanks,
    Hari.

    Hi Hariharan,
    In standard third party process you won't get the goods physically they are delivered by your vendor directly to your customer. In this process there's no meaning of creating inbound delivery I guess...
    You can do statistical goods receipt ('ghost GR' as it was called by someone in SD forum) but even this GR isn't a must (it's based on your invoicing scenario).
    I'm not sure but I'm afraid you cannot create inbound delivery for it if your settings are proper.

  • Process Order Warning Message while doing the Goods Receipt

    Dear All,
    While doing the GR against process order via t.code MB31, we are getting a warning message which reads u201CProduction date of bch 110420 (17.06.2011) does not match the prod. date entered (26.08.2011)u201D this happens only if the batch number already exists in the system for the same material code , in this scenario if the user ignores the warning message & posts the document the existing batch number production date also will be over written with current/inputted manufacturing dateu2026 this will collapse the batch traceability. Is there a way to customize where we can have a different production date for same batch number?..
    For example:
    Batch Number: ABCD
    Production date 10.02.2011
    Batch Number: ABCD
    Production date 11.02.2011
    Batch Number: ABCD
    Production date 12.02.2011
    Regards,
    Sivanandan

    I'm sorry to say that I find your requirement to be absolutely not logical; a batch is, by definition, a homogenous quantity of a material, that you want to separate by it's characteristics from other, different, quantities of the same material.
    If you decided that manufacturing date is a characteristic of the batch, then it has to be unique for one batch.
    So, as I see it, you have two options: either decide that manufacturing date is not important and do without, or have different batches for the different dates.
