Apple updates start to download and then stop inexplicably after about 4,7Mb

Apple updates start to download and then stop inexplicably after about 4,7Mb with message download server unavailable or download file can not be read. This is a recent problem on my Macbook Pro.
Any ideas?

Your problem is that everyone seems to be using the same iTunes store account (ID).  That's fine when a family wants to share purchased items, but that's the rub - everyone is tapping into the same account, so they can download whatever is available.
As for icloud accounts, icloud is designed for single user use.  If multiple users share the same icloud account then all their devices will be synced together - same emails, same contacts and calendars, same notes, etc.  There is no privacy or division of data in this scenario.  The usual advice is for everyone to have their own ID for icloud, and share the family ID for iTunes store.

  • My LabVIEW exe starts to run and then stops in Windows 7

    I have built an executable in LabVIEW 2010 on a Windows XP machine and set the properties to be built for Windows 7 or later but when I try to run the exe on the Windows 7 machine the application starts up briefly and then stops running with no error message. Has anyone seen this? I have disabled the firewall on the Windows 7 machine.

    Hi Wassa,
    It's very strange that your application window opens and then slowly fades away while "LabVIEW shuts down." Can you first verify that the VI itself runs properly on the development machine? Can you then build a .EXE and ensure that it too runs properly on the development machine? If we can get the .EXE working on the development machine you have two deployment methods:
    1. If you are deploying to a computer that already has the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine and any additional drivers required for your application, then you simply need to copy the .EXE to the deployment machine
    2. If you are deploying to a fresh computer that has no NI software, you'll need to create an installer. When creating the installer, you will need to look through the 'Additional Installers' sections and select any of the additional drivers etc. that are required for your application. By default, LabVIEW only includes the Run-Time Engine. If you are missing any of the 'Additional Installers,' the application will not run properly.

  • I can't get the entire update file to download, 995mb then stops.

    995mb then stops. I can't get the entire file to download and this is a fast connection, says 23 minutes to download the file, but stops short. I have tried about 15 times over the last 7 hours, yet it always stops at 995mb.
    I've tried over wireless and wired, and wired is very fast, as I mentioned, it shows only 23 minutes to download the entire 5.3gb file. but it never gets that far. I'd wonder if we have a data cap on the network (work), but it allows me to download the same 995mb over and over.
    if anyone has experienced this, I'd like to know what you did to get it to download. thanks

    Downloading Mavericks requires a high speed broandband connection.
    Check your download speed here > Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test
    Anything less than 15Mbps is too slow to download the 5GB file which may why it's timing out at 995Mbps.
    You may need to contact your ISP for upgrade options.

  • Firefox Software Update starts - indicates downloading and "connecting to server" - but never finishes.

    I am runnng Max OS X 10.7.1

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping upward on the app window (not the smaller icon) off the screen.
    Then reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

  • I have recently started syncing to iCloud on my laptop and iPad.  It starts to sync and then stops and I get the message:  you do not have permission to sync this folder.  I do what it asks but cannot get past that folder?  Help!

    I have recently started using iCloud on my laptop syncing it with my iPad.  When the syncing process starts it stops and gives me a message something like:  You do not have permission to sync this folder.  Then it wants me to unlock and gives other suggestions.  I have done them all and still cannot get the syncing process past this folder.  I is a folder in my documents.  Anyone have any solutions?

  • When I turn on my macbook air, it starts to boot and then stops and turns off.  How do I fix this?

    When I try to turn my MacBook Air on, it starts to boot (gray screen with Apple logo and the swirling indicator) but then it simply shuts off. I have tried Safe Booting but that doesn't work either.
    Does anyone have a suggestion as I really need to get a couple of files off the hard drive.

    The progress bar on the apple screen indicates that the machine is attempting to boot to safe mode.
    Boot your mac and holds down the Option key to boot to the boot manager.
    Once in the boot manager click on macintosh HD and click the arrow to boot, this should boot your machine normally.
    Also perform an SMC/PRAM reset:
    SMC RESET:
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
    PRAM RESET:
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    If these fail, insert your OSX dvd, boot to boot manager, click the disc, reinstall the mac OSX.

  • Why does plugin-container.exe start 15 times (and then stop) during shutdown (taking MINUTES to shut down)?

    FF takes forever to close (minutes). When using process explorer I see that as many as 15 instances of plugin-container.exe will be opened during the shut down process. I think this means that a plugin is crashing. I disabled all of the plugins and it still happened (but maybe not so many times). An obvious answer is to leave FF open but that seems kinda dumb. I haven't seemed to be able to find this addressed anywhere. I am using updated Xp, on a many year old machine. Please help.
    Thanks, John Rooks
    (also, my submit button doesn't work when I try to send this in via the feedback form. (happy, sad and idea page)

    It is caused by Firefox asking plugins like Flash to remove their cookies and other locally stored data.
