App update download failed with this dialog that cannot be dismissed

In Snow Leopard, in Mac App Store click "Update", download busy spinner keep spinning and never finish. After I quit App Store app, I see this dialog behind all the windows on the desktop:
mouse over it the busy beach ball shows up and click on "OK" does nothing.

Yes, I couldn't figure out how to kill that dialog box. So I reboot. Running Mapc App Store update again and this time it worked.

  • Updating Address Fails With APP-PER-52473

    Updating Address Fails With APP-PER-52473 "You must enter a secondary address dated later than the primary address."
    I have an issue w/ updating addresses. The form throws the PER-52473 error. The thing is- my client never assigned primary addresses in the system. Thus, we need to update the data accordingly. I have about 4 addresses per person. From metalink, I assumed all I needed to do was to end-date 3 of them, and flag one as PRIMARY. This still fails. Maybe I am missing something? Is there another step? Another table?
    My question- how do I make this error go away. I have been playing around with end-dates and primary flags, over lapping and non-overlapping dates, and no luck. Any assistance would be great. Thanks.
    ADDRESS_ID     BUSINESS_GROUP_ID     DATE_FROM     DATE_TO     PRIMARY_FLAG     STYLE
    11968417     101     11-MAR-09     null      Y     10
    11968419     101     15-JUL-08     10-MAR-09     N     10
    11968420     101     13-JUL-08     14-JUL-08     N     10
    11968421     101     11-JUL-08     12-JUL-08     N     10

    Looks like a bug.
    Per_Addreses is a Dated table and not a date-track table.
    So you can still have -
    11968417     101     11-MAR-09     null N     10
    11968419     101     15-JUL-08     null     N     10
    11968420     101     13-JUL-08     null     N     10
    11968421     101     11-JUL-08     null     Y     10
    Why can't you create your latest address(primary) also effective employee start_date ?
    As of system date your primary will be the one you can refer in reports/processes. So there will be no harm.
    Where exactly are you using the addresses ?
    Can you not have overlapping addresses ?
    cheers,

  • How can I change my iphone username to update apps and download anything with the new email I have today?

    how can I change my iphone username to update apps and download anything with the new email I have today?

    Before you make an apple ID with the new email, go to appleid.apple.com.  login with your old email and password. change your old email to your new one. Now you can use your new email as your apple id, but beware if you go through the process of creating a new appleid with your new email address you will not be able to attach your old account to your new email.

  • When opening the Calendar app, I am greeted with a box that says "This calendar can not be refreshed."  After clicking on "OK" another box pops up saying "The server responded with an error."  How can I get rid of these?

    When opening the Calendar app, I am greeted with a box that says "This calendar can not be refreshed," and after clicking ok there is another box saying "The server responded with an error."  How do I get rid of this.  The calendar functions all right, but just have to close both of those boxes after doing any action in the calendar app.

    Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Back up all databefore making any changes.
    Step 1
    From the Calendar menu bar, select
    Calendar ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts
    Choose the affected account from the list on the left and uncheck the box marked
    Enable this account
    Then check the box again. Test.
    Step 2
    Make a note of the account settings, then delete the account and add it back with the same settings.
    Step 3
    If you can't add the account, the settings may be invalid. Verify them. How you do that depends on what kind of account it is. If it's a Google calendar and you've activated 2-step verification, you need to generate an application-specific password in your Google account and enter it in place of your old password.
    Step 4
    Quit Calendar. Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:  
    ~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Cache  
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a file named "Calendar Cache" selected.
    Move the selected file to the Trash. There may be one or two other files in the same folder with names that begin in "Calendar Cache". If so, delete those files too.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Apps updates/downloads saved in wrong folder

    Hi,
    I have just transferred my iTunes library to my new NAS (WD MyCloud). I simply copied over my entire iTunes folder from the iMac internal hard drive to the NAS, deleted all the content from iTunes and added everything back from the new location/folder. I also changed the iTunes Medial folder location in the Advanced Preference settings.
    Everything seems to work fine with the exception of the App updates/downloads. Whenever I update an existing App or download a newone it will be saved in the old folder on the internal hard drive of my iMac.
    This drives me crazy...please help!
    Thanks in advance,
    Sebastien.

    Peter
    I think you mean +command shift s+ (Save As…).
    When you *Save As…* you need to choose where to save your initial document, after that just saving will save it in the right spot.
    Inside the *Save As…* dialog box you are free to navigate to other locations either within the column view or by clicking on the folder name at the top of the window, which will reveal the sets of folders enclosing the one you are in ie higher up the hierarchy. To go up the list, just scroll down the menu and let go at the folder you want to move to.
    Also on the left of the *Save As…* dialogue box is your sidebar of frequent locations, you can click on those. To add your own folders to your Sidebar drag in their icon in Finder.
    Also there is a *Search field* to the right of the folder name in the *Save As…* dialogue box, where you can look for folders or files to move to.
    To help you move around more and have more choices at your finger tips, try:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/7214/default-folder-x
    *Default Folder X* is an enormous assist if you don't quite get the computer file system. It lets you click outside the Save dialogue on the folder you want to save to and it jumps there.

  • I'm unable to completely download the latest iphone software verison 5.0.1 with itunes 10.5.2.11, downloading fails with 100kb left (err = -3259).

    Hello,
    I'm unable to completely download the latest iphone software verison 5.0.1 with itunes 10.5.2.11, downloading fails with 100kb left (err = -3259). Any suggestion on how to resolve this? I manually cleaned the DNS cached as well as directly connecting my pc to the cable modem instead of the router.

    Thank you for your response.  But unfortunately there's no Apple Genius Bar here in Malaysia.  Only resellers, which I feel that they are charging way too much in the first place.

  • Message "this app is not compatible with this iPad" What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to update my apps and when I touch update all I get the message 'this app is ot compatible with this I-pad.  this has never happened before, what am I doing wrong?

    One or more of the apps you are updating is seeing that you have not yet gone to ios5.  All the iwork app changes, for example, will not upgrade until you do.   What you can do is tick them individually.  If that particular app will update, then it will.  If it won't it will tell you, and you can go back and get them later after you do the ious 5 update.  Last night i decided to update before i started the ios 5 upgrade, and there were 16 apps waiting for up date.  All but 5 did update, but not the i works, and 2 others.
    It takes a little longer to do them 1 at a time, but it is better than staring at the stupid 'not eligable' notice.

    Hello,
    I am getting below ERROR while downloading the SCCM 2012 R2 prerequisite files. I have tried running the setupdl.exe command several times, everytime it proceeds with downloading 1 file and then fails with the same error.

    Have already checked the proxy but this is still the same. 

    0x80072EE2 = "The operation timed out"
    There is no way to know why from the downloading side why it timed out. "Something" between the "downloader" and the Microsoft source is getting in the way of the communication and preventing the response from reaching the downloader.
    If you have a proxy, that is a likely culprit, but it could certainly be other things. You'll need to do some investigation and discovery -- you may even have to communicate with the network folks or folks responsible for the proxy.

  • URGENT  update a table with a text that has a single quote in it

    Hello, I am trying to update a table with a text that has a single quote in it. I believe I need to use two singles quotes but I am not sure how.
    For example:
    UPDATE TEST
    SET DESCRLONG='Aux fins d'exportations'
    WHERE etc...
    Should I put 2 singles quotes before the quote in the text?
    UPDATE TEST
    SET DESCRLONG='Aux fins d'''exportations'
    WHERE etc...
    Thank you very much :)

    The best way depends on the version of Oracle.
    But, the quick and universal answer is to use two single quotes
    SQL> connect test/test
    Connected.
    SQL> create table test (descrlong varchar2(128));
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into test values ('This is a string with a '' single quote');
    1 row created.
    SQL> select * from test;
    DESCRLONG
    This is a string with a ' single quote
    SQL> update test set descrlong='Aux fins d''exportations'
      2  where descrlong like 'T%';
    1 row updated.

  • I have bought some movies and the don't sync to my iPod touch it comes up with this message that says it cannot be played on my iPod. Please can someone help

    I have brought some movies and they just come up with this message that says it cannot be played on this iPod. I've bought movies before without iTunes Extras but these have iTunes extras and they don't want to sync with my iPod
    Does anyone know what is wrong?

    Sounds like you are trying to sync the HD version of the video.  You should try to download the Standard Definition copy instead and sync that to your device as HD content is only compatible with the 4G iPod Touch.  See here for more information:
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    To prevent HD versions from being downloaded in the future head to the iTunes Store, click the Purchased link, and then select TV Shows and remove the tick mark next to Download HD when available.  You should be able to download the SD version now from under this same page.
