Can't install 10.5.2 update

I am unable to install the 10.5.2 update on my PowerMac G5 system. After providing my administrator password, the system displays the following message:
The update “Mac OS X Update” can’t be saved.
You do not have appropriate access privileges.
The Installer package has been moved to the Trash. To try again, open the package from the Finder.
What is needed so that the software update can be installed on the system?

Here's what I did:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1401676&tstart=0
You may be able to skip some of this and just try updating with the downloaded 10.5.2 combo updater from Apple if your computer is still up and running successfully.
I was screwed to the point where my computer wouldn't start up on its own, but it's all good now.

  • Can't install 14.1.0 update on my Mac Lion, 10.7.5.

    Hi there,
    I can't install 14.1.0 update package on my Mac Lion, the version is 10.7.5, My Office for Mac 2011 version is 14.0.0, it always tell me: "Office 2011 14.1.0 Update can't be installed on this disk. A version of  software required to install this update was not found on this volume." I read the threads about installing update package failed and reinstall Office follow: http://www.office.mvps.org/install/reinstall_office2011.html, but, I can't install update package still.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks a lot!

    Thanks a lot for your answer first.

    Actually, I have one hard disk drive only and there are two partitions on it, and I installed Mac 10.6 and Office 2011 on partition 1 and installed Mac 10.7 on partition 2 recently, is it the point of the issue?
    I removed the Office 2011 installed at partition 1 by running "Remove Office 2011 Uninstaller.pkg" introduced in the "http://www.office.mvps.org/install/reinstall_office2011.html", after did this, I can't install 14.1.0 update package still, the problem is same.

    I cant complete the install of iTunes 10.6.3, no.
    As cant many other windows 7 users.

  • How can I install Adobe Photoshop Elements Update 9.0.3 after I get a message that Installation has failed and the solution is not in troubleshooting or forums?

    My Photoshop Elements 9 stopped working a couple of weeks ago. When I clicked the PSE button nothing happened. I tried this several times over a few days and it still failed. I uninstalled the program and re-installed it. It worked well. Then I tried to install the Update 9.0.3. The download was almost successful. When it was about to show 100% successful for the download, an error message said the installation had failed and that I should try later. I tried this many times over a few days and the same result occurred. I tried troubleshooting and the answers to questions, but I could not find an answer. I don't know where to go to see if anybody has answered my question. How can I install Update 9.0.3?

    Try downloading and installing the 9.0.3 updater from here:

  • Can't install 10.5.1 update! help please!

    hi
    i have written a post before but it is still unresolved.
    i have installed the leopard os last week (erase and install) i can't run software update and the manual 110MB updater doesn't work, instead i get this message:
    +"You cannot install Mac OS X Update on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."+ i also get the same message when i try to install the keychain update.. my startup disk has a free space of 25GB and i have fixed the disk's permissions before running the installer..
    please help me to solve this.
    thanks

    If you have more than one account now (e.g., one created during the install, and one/more restored from a back up), have you tried installing the combo (110 MB) update from the account you created during the erase & install (the very first admin account created)? If not, try logging into that account and try installing the combo update and see if the problem goes away. Then do a permissions repair (it might take a while).

  • Can't install Mac OS X Update Combined

    I have been trying to install this for a few weeks. I get an error during installation. It downloaded fine but every time I try to install it I get an error. I even tried to download and install it from the apple website. It says "You cannot install Mac OS X Update on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."
    Can anyone help me here?

    I am running 10.5.4.
    The update comes up as "Mac OS X Update Combined".

    The 10.5.8 Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Leopard and includes general operating system fixes that enhance the stability, compatibility and security of your Mac, as well as specific fixes for:
    compatibility and reliability issues when joining AirPort networks.

  • Can't install 11.0.07 update

    I have Acrobat XI (not Reader, not Pro).
    Installation of the patch gets up to a certain point, then rolls back with "error 1063."
    Manual download of the 208M patch, and then running it "by hand," produces same result.
    Using MSCONFIG to reboot in as pared-down a mode as possible (no startup programs, few services) produces same result. (Can't install in "safe" mode since Win doesn't load the "system restore" service there.)
    Patch worked fine on desktop, but not on otherwise-fully-patched MS Win 8.1 Update x64 notebook (Sony Vaio SVP13).
    I like being fully-patched, so this disturbs me. But I can't think of any way to get this patch to "take." I suppose I could completely uninstall Acrobat and reinstall from scratch--is that my only next step?

    Hello frenchverb,
    Edited 05/26:
    Sorry about the inconvenience, we are trying to reproduce the problem internally. Meanwhile, based on the logs and error code, we have a few suggestions. Please follow the workarounds given below:
    Workaround #1: Reboot your machine and re-try installation.
    Workaround #2 (if #1 does not work):
    1)  Navigate to the following folder on your machine: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AdobeApplicationManager\AAMSetup
    IMPORTANT: Before you proceed to step #2, please note the versions of the following three files in this folder:
    AdobePIM.dll (under sub-folder “resources”)
    iASUVersion.dll
    Set-up.exe
    To find the version, right-click on the file, choose Properties > Details > File Version. Please send the three file version numbers to [email protected]
    2) Next, please delete the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AdobeApplicationManager\AAMSetup
    3) Repair your installation by visiting: Add/Remove Programs > right click on Adobe Acrobat 11.0.06 > Change > Repair the installation.
    4) Re-try installation
    Please note that it is important that you verify the file versions as that will help us debug the problem further.
    Thanks,
