Can't install updates after upgrading to AP3 :(

Hi Folks,
I'm on latest rev of Snow leo on a 2009 mac pro quad 2.66.
I finally bought the upgrade to AP3, installed it no problemo, but it won't let me update it.
I think there's something in the system recognizing it as AP 2 b/c i'm receiving the "this update needs AP 3 or later" message.
I saw a post by David Slater long after I did it, but I had migrated some apps from my 2006 mac pro. I'm not using for AP considering i have 2 screens connected to my 2009 pro so I transferred it.
I dragged AP2 into the trash and deleted it, but there are obviously some system files still here (or at least, I think there are to be blocking 3 from being recognized).
I have gone into the library pro apps support and removed the system ID and upon launching AP3, i re-entered my existing AP2 license key then my AP3 key. It launches without issue, but I still can't update via the software update or dloading the files manually.
Lesson has been learned to never migrate pro apps, but in the meantime, what can I do before wanting to uninstall and reinstall 3?
A system rewipe is out of the question as I have some serious video work on the go and can not take the time to be down.
Cheers,
keebler

omg. i'm an idiot. i forgot that I had renamed the aperture 3 app name to "Aperture 3.app" b/c I had AP 2 and AP 3 icons. The system had automatically renamed the new AP 3 to " Aperture 1", but I had renamed it.
Anyhoo, turns out that the updates look for specific names so removing the 1 to read "Aperture.app", works.
I'm leaving this up here as reminder that I should have known better and for others to know.
doh!

  • Can't install update after reinstalling photoshop CS2

    I manually removed PS CS2 because of a problem with the 9.0.2 update. I reinstalled PS CS2(9.0). Then tried to update to 9.0.1 but the auto update tells me no available updates.
    Did i miss something when removing PS CS2 thats makeing it think it is still 9.0.2?

    First of all, if you installed the Adobe TWAIN plugin by moving it, put it back. (You can get this error if you move it instead of copying it to install it.) Also, if you have done anything to the auto analyzer, like renaming it, name it back to what it was before. Then restart your mac and try again.

    Maybe you tried holding the app down in the search screen.  I didn't say clearly you have to go to the app eherever it is, but not in the search screen.

  • Can't install update to 10.4.3 - red exclaimation over disk

    I have a G4 iMac and am having a problem installing any MacOS X update over 10.4.3.
    When I download any Delta or Combo PPC updater and start the process, when I get to the window to select the disk to update, the only disk has a red exclaimation mark over it,
    Effectively, I can't update 10.4.3 to anything higher?

    There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
    It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
    So before you do anything else:
    If you can, make a full backup first.
    Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
    1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
    2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
    At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
    3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
    If you prefer to download updates via System Updater in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set System Updater to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
    Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10.
    Now proceed as follows:
    4. Close all applications.
    5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
    6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
    7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
    8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
    If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
    9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them 10.4.10. compliant. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
    N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.

  • Ipad mini not installing updates after 8.0.2

    after I upgraded my ipad mini, I can't install updates from the App Store. Does anyone have any ideas?

    I have two different ISPs.  My connection to U-verse is very slow, but my iPad mini connects rIght away and stays connected.  My TWC connection is much faster yet the iPad connection lasts for a very short time, unless I am sitting directly in front of the router with the iPad almost touching it.  It always shows that the iPad is connected though.  Otherwise I am constantly rebooting the iPad, removing and re entering the router info, turning wifi on and off, etc.  before the 8.0 update, my mini worked perfectly.

  • Acrobat 10 Pro: Unable to Install Updates After Virus Removed: Receive Error 1310 ?

    Acrobat 10 Pro: Unable to Install Updates After Virus Removed: Receive Error 1310 ?
    Attempted to re-install the original Adobe Acrobat 10 Pro from the disk provided with the purchase; and it has put me in a trial; and is requesting that I purchase the software I already paid for, two years ago.

    You can try a repair (may need to go to Control Panel>Programs & Features). A reinstall is a last resort, but if you go there be sure to uninstall from the control panel, run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, and remove any part left of the Acrobat folder. Then reboot as the administrator and reinstall. Be sure to disable antivirus during the install.

  • I can not install updates for Adobe 9 Pro

    I can not install updates for Adobe 9 Pro

    When you can not install the updates from the Help menu, go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows (similar for MAC) and install the updates in order. It is a good idea to download from the most recent back in case there are any you can skip (each updates indicates the prior version required). You generally need to reboot only after the last update.

    I had the same problem (update failed for normal user, update worked for administrator, but then normal user still got asked about installing the update even though it was already done).

  • How to install iPhoto after upgrading to yosemite?

    how to install iPhoto after upgrading to yosemite?

    Download it from the App Store as Matt suggested.  You may have to move the current version to the Trash Bin (don't delete yet), go to the App Store and look for iPhoto 9.6 under purchases.  It will be free.
    What iPhoto version did you have prior to the Yosemite upgrade?  If it was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll also have to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 on your library before opening it with iPhoto 9.6.
