After installing latest Updater should I uninstall previous version?

Hi,
I have just installed Updater IPod 2006-01-10. Should I now delete/uninstall the folder that has the previous version of Updater in it? I think I know the answer but would like some reassurance before I delete anything!
Thanks,
Barry Brotherton

Once you have installed the software on your iPod it isn't necessary to keep the updater installer stored on your computer.
However, wise heads around these parts keep at least one version that is known to work in case any newer version you may install on the iPod in the future contains bugs and causes problems. Read some of the posts on this and other iPod forums to see how some folks have wished they'd never updated the software on their iPods but can't roll back a version because they've deleted any others they may have had stored on their computer.
Apple don't keep older software updaters available for download, and they are very often difficult to find online. If you are worried about them taking up storage space, why not save them to a CD?
You just never know when, or if, you may need one.

Possible iTunes issue:
Try the following after adding photos.
Go to file
Then Home Sharing
Select photos to share
Click on All Photos already selected Do anyway
When Apply turns black click on Apply
Now go to Apple TV to see if photos there
Or restart iTunes.
Works for me every time photos do not appear on my Apple TV 3
Hopefully will work for you.

HT201412 None of my apps works after installing latest update.

After installing latest update on my iPad 2, none of my apps work. I click on the app, it flicks and goes back to home screen. Powering iPad off and restarting it did not work. Please help.

Did you update the apps? Check app store. Most of them had updates to support the iOS 5.1.1. It's been out a while

Should I uninstall previous versions of JRE???

I have these previous version of JRE installed:
J2RE, SE 1.4.1_02
J2RE, SE 1.4.1_07
J2RE, SE 1.4.2_05
I am now updating to J2RE, SE 1.4.2_06 should I uninstall previous versions of JRE or should I leave it alone?
If I were to uninstall do I uninstall via Control Panel or is there another way to uninstall JRE?

There is little harm in either having multiple version (except disk psace/clutter) or removing them. If it turns out you have software that will not work with the latest version, you can always re-install an older version.

Should I uninstall previous versions of Firefox?

Should I uninstall previous versions of Firefox? I found 4 versions of Firefox in my control panel/programs & features. The latest version is 5.0.

Quite honestly, unless you installed Firefox into a different Program Files folder yourself every time you installed a new version of Firefox, I doubt if those older versions are still installed. Don't '''Remove''' anything until you can verify that the older versions are in fact still there, by "touring" the Program Files set of folder thru the Windows Explorer file interface ''(not to be confused with the Internet Explorer web browser)''.
When Firefox is updated, it installs the new version in the folder where the old version was. And, the Firefox installer uses the same folder all the time, except for the 4.0 beta versions and when the user does a '''"Custom"''' installation & selects a different folder than normal for Firefox.

Error message after installing latest update

Since installing latest update 11.0.2.26, I am receiving error message: An unknown error occurred (-42110)
Itunes does work, however, when I close this message down.
Can anything be done? What does it mean? Am I better off just holding out until the next update and hope it fixes itself?

Removing the SC Info folder as per the "Error 3001," "-42110," or "5103" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document seems to help most folks reporting the iTunes launch 42110s:

Saving Issues after installing latest update

Today, after installing an update to my Acrobat XI Standard, I am getting an error message when trying to save .pdfs from an email to my server. The error message is: The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (21). Any way to fix this?

Hi JasBell,
Which server are you trying to save to?
What happens if you copy the document to the local computer first and then copy to the server?

T60 WLAN COMPLETELY GONE after installing latest Update Intel Wireless WiFi Link for Windows XP

I just reinstalled a T60 from scratch TWICE to the point of updating - Intel Wireless Wifi Link for Windows XP -
Just after that very latest Update (3.1.1.1 or so?) there is no WLAN possible and I had to find out, that a system restore is impossible either! (Simply does not work and asks me to get another point and try again)
I have a full backup done by acronis 2010 so that does not bother me so very much.
The point is that I like to WARN everybody to install that Update to their T60 e.g. 2008YWJ !!!
(contains 3945AGB WLAN Module!)
After Updating U HAVE NO CHANCE TO REPAIR IT! U get always the problem signature
szAppName: AcSvc.exe szAppVer: 5.6.1.33 szModName: PfMgrApi.dll
szModVer : 13.0.0.2 offset: 000d4912
and the System wants to report that stuff to MicroSoft...again and again...every time u
start AccessConnections.
U can DEinstall AccessConnections and Intel Wireless Wifi Link for XP completely, reboot
and REinstall it....just 2 get the same messages and NO WLAN anymore.
I could not get out of this Driver Installation Hell until I did a complete Recovery Install and
I got back to Hell when System Update REinstalled Intel Wireless WiFi Link for XP
automagically...;-(((
And again NO CHANCE to roll back, No chance to get rid of that annoying bug. This time I have an ACRONIS-Image so I can spare some time....
Somebody shoud really CHECK this, because it should not be possible to break down an completely NICE RUNNING Thinkpad THIS WAY just by updating it! As it took me abaout 12 Hours of Administration by now I
really would apreciate to help whomever to find out what the hell is responsible 4 this !!!
Why is XP System Restore not working on an T60 to roll back to Point b4 installation of this Update???
(I could not use that Thinkvantage-System Recovery because it did not even get all its updates by the
time the system went in limbo during install! What i defintely can say is that it breaks at exactely
same point when Intel Wifi Updates is installed...
I do my Acronis Restore now and try 2 avoid this Update....;-(
if anybody KNOWS how to get that system 2 an earlier point of an install orgy i whould be thankful to get that information...
I am keeping alive 12 Thinkpads here R40 R50 T42 T43 T60 T61p T400 T500 and NEVER
experienced problems like this in many years!
cheers

gal9000, welcome to the forum,
have you tried running windows system restore from safe mode? It usually works then because some anti-virus softwares will prevent it from running successfully from "normal" windows.
Hope this helps.

If i install new version of Firefox with standalone installer instead of using built in updater, should i uninstall older version first? Would i lose my datas?

As part of end of year maintenance program, i clean my computer and update softwares. I'm currently with Firefox 4.0.1, and want to upgrade to 8. However, the built in updater downloads horribly slow and demands the browser to be active. Most of the times it stated failure and asks me to download the installer myself.
I'm okay with this. Firefox has always be my favorite. But before i do 8.0.1's installation, should i uninstall the old one? Or will it be rewritten automatically? Would i lose my bookmarks and extensions this way?
Win7 64 bit
p.s: (if someone could tell me how to back up 'Scrapbook' data i'll be so thankful)

You can install latest version on top of older version,and if you install on top of older version, your bookmark will restored

After installing latest update Realplayer recording no longer works, I think Mozila is using a library file with the same name

After installing the latest update to Firefox onto Vista operating system the record part of real player no longer works, I think Mozila and Real are using a library file with the same name and the Mozila update is overwriting a Realplayer library file.

I was giong to say, "Help me, Adobe Joe Kenobi", but it looks like you're growing a beard waiting for an answer, too.
The same thing happened to me today. I trusted the "update" message since it was from Adobe, and apprently did so at my own peril. Now I get the "failed to load Core dll" message with a secondary reference to a memory address.
Just an observation, but what good are these forums when there are no answers? I see this problem as "Caused by Adobe Update", and would expect them to troublshoot and offer up a remedy. Since you've been waiting over two months with no response, I suppose it's time to trek off wasting more of my precious time to fix their problem. If I find the solution, I'll post it back to you.
May the Force be with you.

G4 will not boot up after installing latest update

Just installed latest OS 10 update (10.4.8 or 9?) Mac will not boot up. The ring sounds on start up and the apple shows on video but it never gets to the rotating circle. It has been over an hour. I have restarted twice to no avail. I have also disconnect all peripheral. Do you have any suggestions as to what to do next?

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
Try a boot in safe mode (startup holding"shift" key after chime). This will help determine if you have conflicting drivers, fonts,etc. present, and helps bypass damaged software components:

If successful, run Disk Utility. If not, try a single user boot, and run fsck:

Alternatively, boot from your OS install disk, and run Disk Utility.
Post back with your results, please!

After installing latest update Macbook won't start up.

After installing the latest update my macbook won't start up. Instead of the login screen I get a flashing map icon with a question mark. My uncle says that means it can't find the startup disk and I had to startup from the install disk holding C but it didn't work. I'm quite desperate because I need my macbook for school (writing & producing music). I type this on a friend's computer... How can I fix this? Or do I really have to go to a mac store and part from my macbook for an unknown time...? :'(
I don't exactly know what version I have (can't check it now either) but it's at least 10.6.something and I always install the updates...

Hi
Anything unusual happen during the 10.5.3 update installation phase?
What type of iMac are you using? Your tag says G5 but also Intel core processors - it can't be both.
Try this:
-First unplug your computer and wait 10 minutes
-Next, simultaneously reinsert the power cord while pressing the power button for 5 seconds then release
-Press the power button again to start the computer - this resets the computer's system management unit (SMU) which controls your machines power functions.
-Next, press/hold down the P/R/option/command keys for 3 Apple chimes. This clears the machine's PRAM. After the 3rd chime release those keys and immediately hold down the Shift key to put the machine into Safe User Mode
-If you get to a log-in screen (may take several minutes as repair functions are occurring on the boot), log-in. When the login is complete, restart the computer as usual.
If no go, I suggest taking the machine to a certified Apple tech, or if you live near an Apple store to the Genius Bar.

HP Power Advisor has stopped working after installing latest updates

I have been using HP Power Advisor successfully on my Lenovo X230 running Windows 7. After installing the latest Power Advisor updates it no longer works. I can select a voltage from the dropdown on the Input Voltage screen but nothing happens when I click on the Go button, as if it is disabled. I've tried re-installing the download package which works fine but it stops working again as soon as I install the latest updates. Any ideas how to solve this?

Well on the website for HP power Advisor, it specifically says,
"Accurately estimate power consumption of your HP server and storage products"
There could be many different things interrupting your use of the program, but I'm going to say that maybe your largest problem with using the HP software designed for HP machines is your Lenovo.
Sorry,
Good Luck!
