Back Up During Firmware 2.1 Update
I've been trying to update my iPhone using iTunes 8, but there seems to be some kind of Zeno's paradox at work, because the further it gets along in the back up process, the slower it seems to be going. I left it running last night, and came back this morning to a restarted computer and an non-updated iPhone. I'm trying it again and it's been backing up for over 2 hours now. Is this "normal"? Why do back up times seem to have no relationship to what is actually on the iPhone?
The hare pulled through in the end.

Failure during Firmware for MacBook update?
I just got my Macbook back from Apple today after sending it in to have the wristpad bezel and heatsink replaced. When I got on the machine today the first thing I did was run software update. I downloaded the new firmware installer, and let it do its thing, after reading the instructions thoroughly (of course). As soon as it rebooted to install firmware, the system froze after startup at a grey screen, no status bar and no spinning wheel. I let it sit like that for approx. 45 mins, then shut it down. I then tried to start it back up, but it just sits at that grey screen. If I do a single or double PRAM reset, I can get in, but as soon as I reboot, same thing occurs. I did do a 4 bell PRAM reset at first, but as of now I am stumped. The one thing that puzzled me the most was after the failure and PRAM reset, I got a message saying that the "Firmware was successfully updated!" And if I manually DL and run installer on Firmware update, installer reports back that this machine does not need to be updated......
MACHINE INFO:
Macbook 1.83 Intel Core Duo/ 512MB DDR/OSX 10.4.7
ANY IDEAS?? I pray that this is not an isolated issue, and that I didn't eff this machine.
Kind Regards....
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1.83 Intel Core Duo/ 512mb...because the SMC update is not required for the 17" or the new 15" MBPs - the update was already applied at the factory.

MacBook Pro battery had accumulated more than a 1000 charges, and stopped functioning unexpectedly. Went and got the battery replaced. Just saw that SMC Firmware 1.6 update deals with this. Possible to get my money back?
The firmware update corrects an error that may occur, however the techs would have checked the condition of the battery prior to installing a new one. If the battery was questionable, the firmware update was really not too important.
You can check the battery condition by going to the apple, left side of the menu bar, About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Power and see what it says about Cycle Count, Condition, Capacity: Condition anything but Normal needs to be checked and may need to be replaced.
The cycle count of 1,000 charge cycles is the typical life of a Lithium-Ion battery, the point at which the capacity drops to 80% of the as built capacity. -

Oh yeah i checked the firewall issue, and itunes is enabled.

How can I solve this? Every time I have the option to update an application I receive the same notification: "The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs"
Can we eliminate one minor possibility: are you in the UK and using Virgin Media cable connection? I ask because the latest 'Superhub' firmware is corrupting large downloads for some people.

Dropping Frames During Capture; Noticed QT Update.
Dear Friends,
I have Final Cut 4.5, Lacie 500gig drives, use for DV industrial projects, typically capturing 1 hr tapes in 15 min clips. Then, at 5min30sec +/-, capture freezes and an error msg tells me frames were dropped during capture. I have tried every config to troubleshoot, including erasing one of the drives. Right now I can batch 4min clips, any longer and I get dropped frames.
My last successful capture was on 10/22/07; QT updated to v7.3 on 10/23/07. I'm running OS10.3.9 and use a DSR-11.
Everything else seems to be operating fine. If the QT update is the culprit, how do I fix this? Or is there a different solution? I just want my perfectly-running Final Cut system back!!
Regards, Matt AlcornQT updated to v7.3 on 10/23/07.
Why did you do that? The most stable version of FCP 4.5 is with OS 10.3.9 and QT 6.5. Heck, even 7.1.6 works. BUT, why did you mess with a good thing?
NEVER mess with a good thing:

My computer backed up my iPhone before I updated my IOS, now itunes crashes everytime I restore! How can I get my contact information back?
When does iTunes crash?
When you connect to the computer?
When you click on the restore button?
At sometime during the restore?
Does it crash or does just iTunes freeze?

Thunderbolt Firmware 1.2 update problem
I have an iMac 27" 3.4ghz, 16GB RAM, 768 Flash Drive (SSD), and 2gb VRAM.
The system is only 1 1/2 weeks old and after updating to Thunderbolt Firmware 1.2, both of my ports are not being recognized at all. In other words, they are dead. I've called Apple Tech Support and went through various troubleshooting steps including SMC Reset, Zapping the PRAM, safe booting, etc. and yet nothing works. Finally, they had me do a system image and forward it to their software technicians. The case was opened this past Sunday and I was told they would be getting back to me within 48 hours, but havent heard back just yet.
One thing I should point out, my system keeps telling me that there is a software update showing me the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2 is available. I've tried to update many different times and it keeps showing up after my system restarts.
Has anyone else been having this problem after updating to Firmware 1.2 or had any luck updating on an iMac 2012?I tried this (unplugging/replugging Thunderbolt cable), and rebooting MBP, and unplugging/replugging power cable to the Thunderbolt display. None solved the problem after Thunderbolt Firmware 1.2 update. Prior to Thunderbolt Firmware 1.2 update usually one of those operations would resolve the problem.
However adding the keyboard USB extension cable makes the keyboard working again when connected to the Thunderbolt display. -

I have not turned it off but it has been stuck in the same spot for 30 minutes now and I'm not sure what to do next since the screen says to NOT turn it off until done. Please help.If it hangs much longer you may need to disconnect and then grab a micro USB to restore through iTunes

When iOS 6.0 updating my iPhone and connecting my iPhone to iTunes the only option I have, is to restore my iPhone. But ufortunately, I did not back up my iPhone before the updating. Is there any way I can avoid the restoring process?
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

can some one help me? I have been trying to update my MAC and it will not download because this message come up
(The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.)For anyone that comes across this. I managed to fix the problem. It had something to do with the date on my computer. Mavericks installer apparently does a date check of some sort and that is where the error is coming from. Open terminal and check the system date. It may be wrong. Another poster in the forums told me how to to check the date and change it. Click here for the link to the explanation. Be careful because the date is in a weird format.

Can't download the latest iTunes. A window pops up... The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.
Now, iTunes won't launch and can't be updated. Please help.
If I have lost my music collection I will be switching platforms ASAP. It is insane that Apple has updates seemingly every day for their products.I was in your same situation with 14 downloads and 14 attempts.
You have to make sure that your Mac is booting into 64 bit mode. You can make sure of this by going into System Preferences and scrolling down to 'Software' and making sure that you are booding with 64 bit Kexts.
If not, restart while holding the 6 and 4 keys down until you see the spinning gear wheel and try installng again.
BUT, what I also did was to go into Applications, click on the Lion installer, Get Info, and give yourself custom priviliges to Read And Write.
I did this simultaneously, and I don't know what function did it, but it worked for me, with no further downloads of the installer.
Good luck! -
I recently moved all my logic audio sessions to a back up hard disk. Also updated to Loin OSX. My Stylus RMX is not working. I get a message Missing Element on Part 1...Currently not installed on their computer or has been moved to a different folder. Any help out there?
Hi
Sounds like you may have moved the RMX library folder?
Is RMX fully updated (for Lion)?
Check your hard drives for a file called SAGE:
It (or an alias of it) is normally found in the <USER>:Library:Application Support:Spectrasonics.
Note that on Lion, the <User> Library is 'hidden'... quickest way to get there is to hold down Option (Alt) whilst using the Finder:Go menu
