Can I update OS X 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 after installation?

I recently purchased Mac OS X 10.6 and got version 10.6.3.I expected to get version 10.6.8. Can I update to 10.6.8 after installation?

Hello,
I am trying to install 10.6.8 on a computer which is not connected to the internet.
How do I get from 10.6, which I had to purchase on a disc due to the fricking new IOS on my phone, to 10.6.8.
I downloaded what I thought was 10.6.8 update, and it said "you need to have 10.6.7".  This is infuriating.
I'd like to get my music back onto my Iphone soon.
Thanks

  • What is the total space Update Rollup 7 For Exchange 2010 SP3 (KB2961522) will take after installation?

    Quick question.

    Hi
    Your question is a big vague. Extracting the rollup will use some space but you can delete the files afterwards.
    Are you concerned about space while installing? If you have adequate space it shouldnt be a problem.
    Hope this helps. Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.
    I am asking space after installation, it will definitely install some files so how much space extra space it needed in exchange directory drive.

  • HT4623 Unable to update applications installed.Error message "unable to connet iTunes" appears after installation icon hanging

    Since last two weeks I am unable to update my applications installed in iPad with iOS 6. Also no new app is getting installed. Installation icon appears but after some time error message "unable to connect iTunes " appears.Can some one guide me to solve this problem please?

    I've had similar problems. Whenever I try and update apps on the iPhone, the app would apparently download ok, but then not install. This didn't happen with new apps - only ones I was updating.
    I got around the issue by downloading the update in iTunes on my Mac, then deleting the app from the phone, then syncing. The problem with this method is that certain apps had saved settings which are lost when following this method.
    However... I seem to have fixed the issue after 2 months of trying.
    I followed the advice of this page:
    http://www.iphoneatlas.com/2008/09/10/itunes-8-workaround-for-5002-unknown-error -when-trying-to-update-apps/
    Then I repaired disk permissions and finally I completely erased and restored my iPhone BEFORE I synced it after the moving of the Mobile Applications folder.
    It's all working perfectly now and made my life much easier (especially with Aurora Feint updates), so I hope that this method works for some others.
    Good luck.

  • Trying to update frpm itunes 10 to itunes11, but get error message after installation

    I am trying to update my itunes to be compatible with my replaced iphone 4s (apllecare replacement) that is not compatible with my current iTunes 10.6.  I have tried several times to upload th enew version of iTunes to no avial getting an error message after a "successful installation" and the itunes reverts to 10.6.  Since my imac was an older unit I had to update to OSX 10.6.8 (sucessfully) and increase my RAM.  I am 120bucks in the hole plus the 49 dolar surcharge for the iphone replacement and i am still no closer to restoring my phone.  Help please

    First backup your music and content.
    Then delete iTunes 10.6 Drag the application from Finder > Applications to Trash. Empty Trash
    Try and install 10.7 first iPhone 4s will work with this. You can find the download here
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1576
    Install it. Does itunes 10.7 now appear? Is your content all there? Connect up your iPhone and start syncing.
    From there if you want to you can upgrade to iTunes 11 but it is only necassary if you have an iPhone 5

  • Can't update Safari to 3.1.1 or 3.1.2

    I have been unsuccessfully trying to update Safari to 3.1.1. I get as far as downloading when I get a message that says that I need 10.5.2 or newer to run this update. I have 10.5.4! I currently have safari 3.0.4 and would like the new version in order to use the mobileme features. Any ideas on what is causing this or what I can do to fix it? Thanks!

    You can't update from the download; you must use your Mac OS X installer disc. Insert the disc and browse to the folder named Optional Installs; inside is a package with the same or similar name. Open it and you can choose which application(s) to install there. When that's done, repair permissions, then use Software Update to bring your system up to date. Always have a backup before you install anything.
    This issue has been covered numerous times, so you should search the forums for your problem before posting; you could have saved yourself a lot of time.

  • Can't update my Mac App Store applications

    I bought my Mac when my Apple account was set to USA and installed some apps like XCode, Adobe Revel, Twitter, Amazon Kindle, Touchgrind, iPhoto, etc. Later I changed my account's country to where I live now and where my credit card is from now to buy Pages. Now I can't update my applications and my purchased list is empty, even after uninstalling the applications and installing them again.
    Imagine that I won't be able to update Xcode again, huge problem for iOS development. I'm think I'll do a complete reinstall using OS X Lion recovery but I'm afraid that I will have to buy iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand and FaceTime even if they are free with every new Mac.
    Is there any solution? Will I lose my free iLife apps doing a reinstall?
    I already contacted Apple support and they are very good in apologizing.
    Thanks!

    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
    From here >  The Complete Guide to Using the iTunes Store | iLounge Article
    Sorry, but you won't be able to update any apps purchased using a different credit or debit card account from another country.
    Is there any solution? Will I lose my free iLife apps doing a reinstall?
    They will probably reinsstall but you won't be able to download updates since they were purchased from another country.

  • Can I update with a CAB file after I installed BizTalk ?

    Can I update my base configuration of BizTalk with a cab file after everthing is installed and configured ?
    I missed installing it while I was installing BizTalk for the first time, now I want to update it with a CAB file. Is that possible ?

    Hi,
    BizTalk Server relies on different products and technologies to provide essential services and features. CAB file contains softwares that are required by BizTalk server to
    successfully install on your computer.
    You can select the cab file based on the edition and server you working with. Link below:
    Redistributable CAB Files
    Now coming to your question, as I have mentioned above the CAB file contains the
    prerequisites
    required for successful installation of BizTalk. While installing BizTalk on Redistributable
    prerequisites
    screen you must have either manually or automatically installed the CAB file already.
    If you have already successfully installed and configured BizTalk, I dont see any issue with the CAB file.
    I don't buy that 90% consumption of the CPU is due to bad or wrong CAB file selected while installing BizTalk.
    I would advise you to go through the below link:
    What you need to do to prepare for and install BizTalk Server

  • How can I update my app store account ?

    Hi, I have a new Iphone and I wanted to add some applications from apple store.
    Unfortunately, I had a message saying that I was using app store on a new device (true) and they needed to check some security thing from my visa card. Unfortunately, I had a new  card and do not have the previous one anylonger (the previous one expires in 1 year but had to be cancelled).
    Therefore I am blocked and cannot get into my account.
    How can I update my bank account and get into the apple store again ?

    Great, it worked. i could update the account from the laptop (but not from the phone).

  • How can i update data in JTable at run time ?

    i am trying to build a client/server architecture for conducting quizzes & online tests.. My client will return a object to the server after the test is over, which contains details about the participant, his score and other details. i am putting the incoming object to an Vector. I'll create a new thread each time for the incoming connection and insert the object to the Vector.. Now, please tell me tat, how can i update my table automatically at run time so tat, my table is updated whenever a new object is entered into vector..
    here is my code for the table..

            Main.List.addElement(new Student("CS013","Mangal S","MNM",5,"9841961742"));
    }

    In the future Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    how can i update my table automatically at run time so tat, my table is
    updated whenever a new object is entered into vector..You don't update the Vector directly. You should be creating a method in your TableModel, called "addRow(...)". This method will do two things:
    a) add the Student object to the Vector
    b) invoke the fireTableRowsInserted(..) method of AbstractTableModel. This will cause the table to be repainted.

  • HT1212 I am unable to get our of a continuous cycle when trying to update or restore my iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.

    When I tried to update my iPad I got an error 9. Now, I am unable to access my iPad. It is in a continuous cycle when I try to update or restore the iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.
    Here's the cycle:
    I plug in my iPad when “cable to iTunes shows on iPad screen. It says "Your iPad can't be updated, you must restore it to factory settings." That bad enough news, but it gets worse.
    Click Restore
    Extracting software…
    Preparing iPad for restore
    Waiting for iPad…
    Verifying iPad restore with Apple…
    (empty bar under the Apple logo…does not show any activity)
    “The iPad “iPad” could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9).”
    Notes: I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on my iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) in the last week. It’s the first time I’m tried to backup/update my iPad since the iMac update.
    I swapped out the USB cable to a new cable and get the same results.
    I also unplugged all other USB devices from the iMac and security on my iPad and still get the same results.
    I find it strange that it shows no Serial number for my my iPad 2 when plugged in. It shows “Serial Number: n/a on the screen when it displays: “iPad Recovery Mode To update your iPad without erasing its contents, click Update. To restore your iPad to its factory settings, click Restore iPad.
    I prefer to update my iPad, but it displays “Your iPad can’t be updated, you must restore it to factory settings. If you previously backed up the iPad, click Restore Backup after the restore process completes.”
    It’s a continuous loop. I get the display on my iPad to plug in the iPad to iTunes, plug it in which ends after going through the above procedure saying an error occurred (9).
    So now I cannot use my iPad. When I turn it on I get the display showing me to plug it into iTunes with the cable. Since this is the only option I have I plug it in and the loop begins.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hello jaybearden,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are not able to restore the iOS device since you get an error 9. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    Check your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can prevent your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
    Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't preventing a connection to the Apple servers.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,

    Couple of pointers.
    1 - use [ code ] tags to post code
    2 - that is WAY too much code for more than a cursory glance. You're lucky the problem was easy to spot.
    Your problem lies in your edit JSP form:
    <td>Product Name:</td>
    <td><input name="description" type="text" value="<jsp:getProperty name="inventoryBean" property="item" />"></td>Note that the name of the input field is different from the jsp property you are populating it with.
    In fact, all of your input fields have a name of "description"
    I would recommend on your inventory_admin.jsp page that you put the following debugging code to make sure that the parameter values come through and are set correctly.
      out.println("name = param: " + request.getParameter("name") + "bean = " + inventoryBean.getName() + "<BR>");
      out.println("description = param:" + request.getParameter("description") + "bean = " + inventoryBean.getDescription() + "<BR>");
      ...
