Can't install OS X 10.1.1 update

Hi everyone,
I've just bought this laptop and recently installed OS X 10.1 on it. I've downloaded the OS X update for 10.1.1 from the Apple website, but my machine won't let me install it.
I get as far as selecting the disk I want to install to. Mac HD is greyed out and I can't select it.
There should be loads of room on the HD, so that shouldn't be a problem, I've also tried turning off file sharing, Has anyone else got any ideas?

Darren,
I'm working on that same problem tonight, trying to update my husband's iBook. According to this page:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxcomboupdate10_15.html
the system requirements include a security update and an installer update, to be installed first, before you can do any OS updates.
On the linked installer update page, you get told to go to a newer security update instead of those two updates:
http://www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n120136
As soon as they're downloaded, I'll try installing the security update first, then maybe the 45MB combo update will work.

  • HT1444 I need to update my Mac version 10.4.11  can I instal the version OS X Lion Update 10.7.2

    I need to update my Mac version 10.4.11  can I instal the version OS X Lion Update 10.7.2 as an update

    If your iMac has a PowerPC processor, you can upgrade to OS 10.5 Leopard, which is the max OS.
    If your iMac has an Intel processor, you can upgrade to OS 10.6 Snow Leopard, and possibly OS 10.7 Lion.
    You have to buy OS upgrades. Updates to later versions are free from Apple's site.

  • Can't install firmware - OSX Mavericks App Store Update...

    App Store locked up so I had to force quit and now I can't install firmware updates.
    Below is the install.log data -- can anyone assist? 
    I'm not sure if I have to clear out and delete a temporary download file
    to get this to work again?
    Thanks!

  • Can't install Server Admin 10.5.6 update on G5 10.5.6 server

    Not sure if this is by design or if there's something wrong with my setup. I downloaded the 10.5.6 server admin tools update and attempted to run it on my server only to be greeted with the message "You cannot install Server Administration Software on this volume. You can not install the Server Admin Tools on a computer running Mac OS X Server." The update installs fine on a client workstation. I have server admin tools installed on the server already but the version shows 10.5.3. Is there any way to bring the on-server tools up to the same release as the off-server install?

    If you've updated the Server to 10.5.6, the tools should be updated as well. If a specific tool didn't change, it's possible that it still shows the 10.5.3 version. Looking through my "Server" folder, only System Image Utility and Workgroup Manager show versions newer than 10.5.3.

    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?

  • Can't install anything since 10.5.3 update

    I recently installed the 10.5.3 update on my MacPro (the full package, not just the incremental update from 10.5.2). Yesterday I tried installing the updates Software Update listed, and no go...they'd download and then nothing. For kicks I manually downloaded the Quicktime 7.5 update, and once again no go. I get to the "install" button and nothing happens. I've tried all sorts of installs and it's all the same. I've verified/repaired disk permissions and verified the HD, and everything appears to be checking out fine.
    Anybody else experiencing this?

    You mentioned you did the full 10.5.3 install. Was that the combo update that you downloaded? If so try installing it again.
    Maybe even try installing it from safe boot. So turn the computer on holding down the shift key and then manually installing the 10.5.3 combo update again

  • Can't install iTunes or uninstall Apple software updater.

    When trying to upgrace iTunes on my Windows 7, 32-bit machine, I receive the following error message: “There is a problem with the Windows Installer package. A program required for this install could not be run.” I tried uninstalling all appple products (in the correct order), but the Apple software updater won't uninstall; when trying ot uninstall it I get the same message I get when trying ot upgrade iTunes. Any ideas?

    Go to Microsoft website to fix install and Unistall problems. Click "Run now" from Fix it to remove all iTunes & related installer files:
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    Be aware that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility will not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall over.

  • Can't install Adobe Flash Player or latest update and need help to determine corrective action to take.

    When I try to download latest version of Flash Player get a box showing downloads but there isn't anything in the box.

    Well, that should mean that nothing is running in realtime and should not interfere as McAfee would. I think this version of Ad-Aware was an On-Demand, you ran it when you wanted to, it didn't run automatically, is that correct?
    Was the HJT just on the Desktop?
    When you left click on Ad-Aware what happens? We can remove it, but it isn't causing a problem now so we'll do that later.
    Did you have any ad block? What about pop-up blocker software installed?
    In your Manage Add ons, the All add ons, can you pull out all ActiveX Controls(list them?) If not don't worry about it.
    When you first began having problems, did you try to Install an older version of Flash Player thinking that would work?
    Are there any other Anti-Virus/Spyware that you had installed before that wasn't Uninstalled that may still be running in realtime?
    I'm trying to determine what caused the ActiveX Control error.
    Do you know how to find the Flash folder? If not, I do. Just tell me.
    Thanks,

I tried deleting all old RNR and CSS programs in the old files after the install, but nothing seems to work. There is nothing listed in my add/remove programs. My Thinkvantage button doesn't work. How do I remove the old RNR? Should I have done that prior to installing Windows 7? Do I need to re-install my XP backup and start over? My Bios update extracts, but doesn't install. Help!

    Hi, FSURN82
    I did some research and was able to find this thread from Lenovo Forums. There are a few other people having similar issues. For some, installing an older version of Rescue and Recovery (sometimes even the one for their OS before the upgrade) would work fine. For some, however, they could not get it to work, so they would create backups manually using Windows.
    As for the BIOS issue, what version are you currently running and to what version are you trying to upgrade?
    Thanks,
    Adam
