Can't get Illustrator to finish updating after 50% complete

I keep getting a message from Creative Cloud that there is an update for Illustrator. A few weeks ago, I started the update but I had Illustrator running. The update at that time completed to 50% and then said the update failed and asked if I wanted to retry. Since that day, almost every day, before starting Illustrator, I try to resume the update. It loads and shows 50% complete and then again, displays that the update failed and asks if I want to retry. I click on retry, same thing happens. What do I do from here? Where are the update files downloaded to so maybe I can delete them and restart the update as I am feeling this may be the only solution. It takes so long starting over. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Quick Signs,
You may try to delete the preferences by pressing Ctrl/Cmd+Alt/Option+Shift during startup, or try the more thorough procedure, following the instructions in the Move the folder hint here: http://www.bugge.com/Family-and-friends/Illy/illy.html

How can I get Illustrator CS6 to update? I get Installation error code U44M1P7

I have a windows 8.1 machine. When I installed Design Standard CS6, I got error messages for Illustrator CS6, Photoshop CS6 regular and Photoshop CS6 64-bit.
I checked for Adobe updates, and after installing all of these, I still get an error for Illustrator.
It tells me "Adobe Illustrator CS6 Update (version 16.0.3) Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7
From some of the other message boards, I have seen the thing to do is re-try the update.
I have done this three times, but Illustrator still has the same problem.
What can e done to troubleshoot? I am directed to contact customer care for this issue.
Thank you.

I can't get Firefox to finish updates, even over night. Other than that it works ok.

Firefox says I should update asap but never finishes. I don't get an error message, instead it just continues with a message underneath saying it's trying to connect but never does.

If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Is this a POP account, or an IMAP account? Did you enable your account type in Gmail?
You can verify whether or not you did (and enable it if you didn't) by logging into Gmail on the web. Then, open the 'Forwarding and POP/IMAP' tab on your 'Settings' page, and configure IMAP. After enabling IMAP in Gmail, make sure you click 'Save Changes' so Gmail can communicate with your mail client.

I can't get Illustrator CC to launch

I can't get Illustrator to launch. It just bounces in the dock. I've also tried launching straight out of the Application folder, the same thing. I also tried updating it through the App Manager, and this hasn't made any difference.
Thanks

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.0.4. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
 Cheers, Tom

How can I get the 23 July update to load onto my iPad. I haven't been able to access my documents or work for weeks and need to use it. Has anyone else had similar problems?

How can I get the 23 July update to load onto my iPad. I haven't been able to access my documents or work for weeks and need to use it. Has anyone else had similar problems?

Hello Arthur,
Thank you for the reply.
You were correct that deleting the app and reinstalling it was the only thing to make it work but unfortunately I lost all the documents I made, even though they were backed up to iCloud before i deleted the app. At the same time as deleting pages I had to delete keynote and numbers too, so I've lost all the documents in them too.
The mb of data which was assigned to each programme in iCloud has reduced, so. I guess they are gone for good. Is there any other way to reaccess them?
Not your fault but I am a bit fed up the the iPad. I have lost work that I've done and have no other copy apart from what was in iCloud, as I don't have a printer and couldn't email them too myself as I couldn't get into the programme and i've also got episodes of tv series I purchased that I can't download and albums that are half downloaded with songs missing, so I feel a bit swindled out of time and money and am going back to DVD , pen and paper and CDs .
Instead of using iCloud I guess the only way to make sure I don't loose any more documents it to email them to myself each time I save them on the iPad. Is there anything else you could suggest please?
I don't have any other apple products apart from iPods, so I can't access the iCloud on anything else can I?
Thanks
Amanda

See [[Replace your Sync information]] but read the cautions carefully.
* also see [[firefox Sync is not working]]
It is always a useful precaution to make manual bookmarks backups
* see [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
The above article also explains about the autobookmark backups that firefox generates, but be sure to make manual backups as you work, it is very easy to overwrite the wrong set of backups.
I am not entirely certain what firefox is doing in your case, perhaps the synced Netbook does not have the expected set of bookmarks on it.
Presumably sync may be uninstalled or disabled like any other add-on
*see [[Uninstalling add-ons]]

I downloaded a new APP to my iPhone it appears on my screen but can't get it to appear on my wife's iPhone screen. Her screens were initially full of Apps, I later made room for the new APP but can't get it to appear even after making room for the new APp. It can be opened, but I want the APP to be on her iPhone screen as well as on mine. Help, please.

Is the app downloaded on her phone also?

I have an old apple id that i havent used for years. For some reason i have updates on my mac i cannot do unless i sign onto that old account. It uses an old e mail account i no longer use or have access to. How can i get to do these updates?

I have an old apple id that i havent used for years. For some reason i have updates on my mac i cannot do unless i sign onto that old account. It uses an old e mail account i no longer use or have access to. How can i get to do these updates?

its very specific.
If you are seeing the old Apple ID with regard to this Mac, then it would seem that somehow you have incorporated the ID in the setup of this new Mac.
Iphoto i use never used imovie.
If you began using iPhoto without having Accepted it into your Apple ID, then that would explain why you are unable to update the app. If any of the iLife apps are used without Accepting them into your Apple ID, the ability to accept them will lapse and you will not be able to update them.
