CAN'T INSTALL DOWNLOADED UPDATE

I have tried a half dozen times to install the most recent update for Tiger on my G3. Each time it ends with indicating that installation was unsuccessful due to the Apple "signature" not being correct. Can anyone suggest a) the problem and b) the solution?

IF you are 100% positive it is being downloaded from the apple site directly... create a new admin user , test if the issue persists installing it there.
If the issue persists then you need to boot to the Mac OSX installer CD -0 check the HD ensure that it is OK before doing an archive and install preserving user and network settings.
storm the castles and have fun doing it ...

Get error U44M1I210 but can't install downloaded updates either

Running released version of Mountain Lion. Received notification of updates to Dreamweaver and SpeedGrade. Ran Adobe updater and both updates failed with error U44M1I210. Rebooting doesn't help. Downloaded updater files directly. Ran them. Each failed. Mounted images appear briefly on desktop during installation before failing. Downloaded DMG file is no longer mountable after failed installation.
Downloaded update files again. Manually opened every single mountable file within the updater (by double clicking on all the dmgs (many in Dreamweaver 12.0.1 update!). Then ran install app within the installation dmg and all went well.
I've noted similar issues with other, non-Adobe updater files (images within the installation files need to be manually opened.)
Any ideas about what's wrong with my system? Is this a known Moutain Lion problem? Or am I alone in having some curruption that prevents installation programs from mounting images from within the installation files? Any help appreciated.
Sandy

Hi Sandy,
I would suggest just moving over any user specific files you needed to save from the old account to the new but we do have this document that goes over some other possible fixes too.

Hi G,
If you're not using Software Update (in the Apple menu), use that.
If you are using SU and getting that message, try going to http://support.apple.com/downloads/ and downloading it, then install it.

Windows has a software updater built into Windows and when you install the Boot Camp drivers then it will install an Apple software updater also. I believe Windows is set to automatically download and install your updates as does the Apple software Updater. They both will update the individual files it needs to periodically.
"Microsoft updates" and "Windows updates" are basically the same thing in Windows. Are you talking about the "Windows support software" when downloading from Boot Camp Assistant? Apple installs a software updater for it's Boot Camp drivers in Windows 7 so you can do it manually or automatically.
The "Hot Fix" your referring to is only for certain motherboards built from other Windows only computer manufacturers and does NOT pertain to any Apple computers.
If you have a problem with your computer then it's best to ask a specific question so we can help better.

Can't Install or update apps on iPod Touch 5g

Hi, i am having a very serious problem with my iPod. it is an iPod Touch 5th Generation, 32GB, blue. It is currently running iOS 8.2. The problem is, I can't install or update any apps. It just sits on the home screen grayed out and saying "Waiting...". It won't do anything else. I have already tried hard restarting it, along with signing out and back into the App Store. I have also tried deleting the apps and reinstalling, but it does the same thing.

Downloading apps stuck on waiting...

Can't install new update 10.5.4

I can't install software update on my iMAC 24 10.5.4 . After restars indicator of install process is freese and compunert doesnot responde. After reset computer is working normal, but update is not install. other updates install normal

Welcome to the Apple forums:
First, run the disk utility and repair harddrive and permissions.
Then download the 10.5.4 combo update from here:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1054comboupdate .html
and apply it.
If that is too large, there is a smaller one that will probably work here:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1054update.html
There is no problem re-applying an update again.
In most cases, this fixes any issues caused by a bad install.

Can I install Driver updates?

Ok, i have installed windows xp on my imac for over 7 months now still working fine and a few days ago i installed a program called drivermax and found a few updates for my current drivers, my question is:
Can i install driver updates for my XP?
i just don't want it to cause any problems BTW, is it possible for me to get a new intel chip and work it on my IMac?

Hi ? and welcome to Discussions,
my personal approach with Driver Updates in Windows is 'never change a running system' and/or 'if it ain't broken, don't try to fix it'.
So unless I have any kind of trouble with my Windows I don't update Drivers.
BTW: I am still running the BootCamp Beta 1.1.4 Drivers
If you want to update drivers, you should consider making a backup of your BootCamp Windows before with WinClone http://www.twocanoes.com/winclone/ or at minimum set a 'System Restore Point' to which you can revert in case something goes wrong.
Nontheless you should stick with the Driver Updates Apple has provided.
BootCamp 2.0 Drivers are on the Leopard DVD and BootCamp 2.1 Drivers can be downloaded from Apple but will only install if you have installed the 2.0 drivers .
You can't 'upgrade' the Intel processor without at least losing your warranty.
Even then this is definitely a very difficult task and most likely not worth the time and money you have to invest.
Regards
Stefan

I upgraded to Lion and now Safari doesn't work and the updater hangs so I can't install the updates. Can anyone help me with this?

I upgraded to Lion and now Safari hangs up and the updater hangs up so I can't install the update. Can anyone help?

Reinstalling Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alterhatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

Can't install ACR updates in Windows 7

When I try to install downloaded updates, I get a message that the installer "... has encountered a problem. Close Adobe Bridge before continuing installation." Except that Bridge is not running, and I have no clue about why it thinks it is. Other updates have the same problem (Adobe Reader) but some have installed. Does anyone know what's happening here?
There are other issues, such as the straighten tool in ACR will not draw a line and will crash Photoshop.
Windows 7 HomePremium 64-bit and Photoshop CS4 64-bit.

Hi,
Could you post the contents of your AIR installer log? It's possible, depending on the error we received, we might also need the MSI log.
Thanks,
Chris

yes you need the updates and patches.
Only some of the drivers that Windows will automatically install at times
and always make sure to insure it is using restore points
do all the maintenance andsuch as normal
use MS Security Essentials for AV is really top notch
Clean disk space
Use WinClone new program to inisure you have a restore image
