Can't update Aperture 3.0 to 3.1.2 downloaded via Firefox.

Hi I'm new to Apple and Apple software. Thinking about turfing my Windows but having second thoughts with this update of Aperture 3.0. I have minimac OSX10.6.3 and Aperture 3.0. I experienced problems with Aperture 3.0 and noted that the update 3.1.2 would solve the issues. Downloaded the 3.1.2 update. Copied the 398mb file to minimac and tried to update Aperture. The error msg occurred "wrong version of OS." I checked http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2518 and it says Mac OS X 10.5.8 and Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later. Can anyone help?

If it says it applies to OS 10.5.8 and 10.6.6 and you are running OS 10.6.3 then your version does not apply.
You will need to update your OS first to 10.6.6 as that is the requirement you have stated.
After that, applying the Aperture update should proceed without error.
P.S. Use software update to ensure you get the right updates rather than downloading from the webpage.

    You mean update your iPhone software? Yes, you can do that on any computer, but it REQUIRES an internet connection & yes the software needs to be downloaded unless already on the computer and the exact version for your model iPhone.

    You must close Firefox to install the update after it is saved to your hard drive. Follow the instructions below.
    There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash. Both must be installed and updated on Windows systems. In Firefox it would show as Shockwave Flash in your plug-ins, if you had it installed.
    *an ActiveX version for IE only
    *a plug-in version for Firefox and most other browsers
    #'''Install or Update the [[Managing the Flash plugin|Flash]] plugin''' to the latest version.
    #*Download and SAVE to your Desktop so you can find the installer later
    #*If you do not have the current version, click on the "Player Download Center" link on the "'''Download and information'''" or "'''Download Manual installers'''" below
    #*After download is complete, exit Firefox
    #*Click on the installer you just downloaded and install
    #**Windows 7 and Vista: may need to right-click the installer and choose "Run as Administrator"

  • Can not update aperture 3.1, wrong app store account

    I have recently upgraded to Mavericks, and now can not open Aperture, version 3.1.
    I tried upgrading to version 3.5, but the app store says I have the wrong apple account for this app.  I only have one Apple account, and all other applications upgrade successfully with it.
    Aperture was purchased in a box in version two some years ago, and has been upgreaded a few times, by downloading the upgrade and installing.
    I have also moved to a new Mac Pro since the last time I upgraded.
    I can find no way to upgrade Aperture, and can no longer use it.  It's essential, I'm a photographer.
    Kind Regards,
    Michael Hund

    Micheal,
    you can download updaters for all versions, but Aperture 3.5.  But the manual upgrade should enable you to upgrade to a version that will run with Mavericks at least, even if it will not let you upgrade to 3.5.
      On my laptop at home I have Aperture 3.4.5 already
    Does Aperture 3.4.5 run with Mavericks, and can you at least open your Aperture library and continue to use Aperture?
    The update to Aperture 3.5 is handled very differently from all other updates. What Apple is doing, is transferring your Aperture registration key to an AppStore licence bound to your AppleID.
    If you cannot update and get a warning, that your Aperture is tied to a different account, could mean, that there is a problem with your Aperture serial number. I suspect, if someone else had used your serial number to activate Aperture and upgraded it at the AppStore, you cannot use the same serial number again with your own AppleID. Compare the serial number you are seeing in Aperture's "About Aperture" panel with the ones on your Aperture upgrade boxes.  And make sure, that you are signed into the App Store with the same Apple ID on all your Macs, when you are trying the update.
    if there should be a problem with the registration code, contact Apple and ask for a replacement serial number:  Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers
    Another frequent problem with upgrading Aperture is, that it only seems to be possible, if your main system language is set to "English". Try to set it temporarily to English, while trying to upgrade.

  • I can't update Aperture 2 to Aperture 3 (Maverick)

    Hallo,
    I'd like update Aperture from ver. 2 to 3, for free.
    I have OS Maverick and Aperture 2 BOX (not purchased by App Store).
    Unfortunately, when I check updates not show Aperture... I can download upadate Pages, Number etc., but Aperture not.
    I removed Aperture and installed again but it doesn't work.
    Somebody help me?

    Aperture 2 is an old bit of software and it barely ran on Mountain Lion when it ran at all.
    There have been a lot of improvements to the program since version 2 and you will be doing yourself a favor upgrading to 3.5
    regards

  • Can't update Aperture 3.0.3 to 3.1.2

    I am try to update Aperture 3.0.3 to 3.1.2. I do get "Aperture 3.1.2Update.pkg" but when I double click on this "pkg" I get a window with "Install Aperture Update" and on top of this window I get an "alert window" saying:
    "Aperture 3.0 or later is required to install this update". When I close the alert window, everything disappears.
    Can anyone help me out? Thanks

    Is Aperture in your Applications folder (not nested) and named simply Aperture?
    Updater will not find it if it isn't.

  • Can't update Aperture 3.2 to 3.2.1

    For some reason (or the other) I just can't, as the subject line reads, update my Aperture from 3.2 to 3.2.1.
    I keep getting:
    "File got corrupted while downloading" (or something)
    Which is odd as everything else I update via Apple Updater works fine - iTunes 10.5.1 came down without any problems during the same session...
    This is VERY annoying and started after I updated to Lion some time back. I have tried for a good couple of weeks now
    The same problem arised when I tried to download (and update) both my iPhone 4 and iPad 1 gen which I finally got updated via Apples website rather than the Software update and by restoring the devices.
    Is there anyway I can get Aperture updated without getting the annoying Error message?
    Thanks...

    This is when you double click the dmg file or when you are doing the actual install or during the download?
    Could you post a screen shot of the actual error window?
    Just tried downloading the dmg that the link I posted above points to and it loaded and installed ok. So either you have a something strange going on on your Internet connection or else something on your system is messing you up.
    After you get back with the answers to the questions above we'll see what else we can do.

  • I can't update Aperture or iPhoto to iCloud specs

    To set up Photo Stream on your Mac, you need iPhoto 9.2 or Aperture 3.2.  My iPhoto is 9.1.1 and my Aperture is 3.1.2.  However when I go to the App store, either directly or from the iCloud control panel in system prefs, I get the message all apps are up to date.  The same thing happens if I go to software updates under the Apple Menu.  Why aren't my older apps being recognized for updating?  Until this is solved, photo streaming is grayed out for me in the iCloud control panel.
    I am using Lion 10.7.2, on an Intel core2 iMac..

    If you have bought these apps at the appstore : delete them and re-install from Appstore, you will aotmatically receive the latest versions.
    If you installed using ilife '11 DVD / Aperture DVD :
    download the offline update dmgs from apple.com/support -> downloads , and run them locally.
    iPhoto is at 9.2.1
    Aperture at 3.2.1

  • Can't update Aperture from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 without paying full price.

    I read about the new Aperture update to version 3.5 but it does not appear in regular software updates. When I found it in the App Store it is listed at $79.99. I already own Aperture and currently have version 3.4.5. I understood this to be a free update.

    It is a free update, most users are getting it without a problem however some users seem to be having difficulty.
    First thing the update is only for system running Mavericks. HA=ave you upgraded the OS yet?
    If you have is Aperture installed in the systems Applications folder and named Aperture. These two points are important for Software Update to do its thing.
    Have you tun Software Update and update from the Mac App Store. In my case it did not show up in the App Store until I had updated from 3.4.5 to 3.5.
    Some users have had success getting the upgrade by uninstalling Aperture, reinstalling from their original media and then running Software Update. Remember if you try this you will need your serial numbers for Aperture so make sure you have them before trying it.

  • How can I update Aperture from 3.0.2 to version 3.1.2?

    I use aperture 3.0.2 on a Mac OS X 10.5.8.
    When I download the update from the official apple site and try to install, the system says that the update needs ProKit Version 5.1 or newer and that I shoud run the Apple software-update. But when I doo that, the system says, my software is up to date.

    Did you by any chance sneak peaked at OS X Lion?? Anyway, you could try to download the ProKit update from here.

  • How can I update Aperture? I'm asked for an ID I cannot remember.

    I'm told to download update with ID I used to purchase it. Apparently the Apple techs can't deal with this issue.
    What I'd really like to do is consolidate IDs into one.

    Have you tried to recover your Apple ID at
    My Apple ID: https://iforgot.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/DSiForgot.woa/wa/iforgot?
    Follow the link: "Forgot yourAppleID?" on that page to recover your ID.

  • How can I update multiple IOS devices from one computer without downloading IOS each time

    My company is on a VERY slow internet connection, and at the moment we are using a cellular modem to increase our bandwidth.  This connection is a metered connection.  The 1 Gb download for IOS 7 will kill all of my purchased bandwidth, and has a potential to both take a while and/or cost a fortune.  I need a way to update 58 iPhone 4's, 4S's and 5's to IOS 7 while only downloading IOS for each device type once.  We are using iTunes to do this update as the update utility on the phone has caused 3 of our units to crash and lose all their data.  2 of which were bricked and had to be replaced by applecare.  We had a utility for that when I worked for apple a few years ago that used iTunes in this manner, but I am not sure this exists on the consumer side.  Does anyone know where i can look for this solution?

    - Since you have iOS 4.x, the only way to update the iPod is to connect the iPod to a computer and update via iTunes. See:
    iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
    - If you following these instructions you can update the iPod without losing anything.  WHen you restore from backup as the article says the iPod will also be updated.

  • Can't update from version 3.6 to any newer versions? Firefox freezes or closes with any version past 3.6!

    Firefox freezes or closes with any version past 3.6! Have tried various suggestions from online support. I am using Windows XP Professional with all updates, Norton Security Suite, V5.1.0.2 updated. I am using Comcast. The following add-ons are installed in Firefox:DowloadHelper4.9.7, ExtendedCopyMenu(fixed version)1.6.1c and NoScript.
    I tried installing V8.1 and it would either freeze or close. I have tried opening it in safe mode but Firefox would not open.
    I have gone into the registry, removed all Mozilla and Firefox entries and reinstalled 8.1. Didn't make any difference. I really, really don't want to go back and start using IE.
    Is this an issue for anyone else or just my computer which is about a year old? Sure would appreciate any help.

              How do I check that? Is that the little watch-type battery that G3 Macs used to have?
    I should also add that I tried one of the malware scan sites mentioned on this forum and it returned 'no virus found'.

  • Can I update the number of processes, cache etc per workshift via backend

    Hi everyone,
    after cloning from PROD to a TEST environment, i'd like to be able to reduce the number of concurrent processes and the cache size
    for the standard manager to a lower number.
    Most of my post cloning steps are automated through a script, and I wondered if I can make this change through the backend as well ?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    Did you try to change these two parameters from the application and see if it works?
    Yes Hussein, this is how I do it at the moment, manually through the application, and this works
    Did you verify the value of MIN_PROCESSES and SLEEP_SECONDS columns for this manager in FND_CONCURRENT_QUEUE_SIZE table?
    When changed through the application, yes, these values are changed.
    I want to do this through the back end to automate the process. When I try manually updating the table, only the cach_size "works" in that
    it gets changed (and shows on the Concurrent - Administer screen) and stays changed in the table.
    The other values seem to get changed back in the table by some process and therefore do not get changed, even if I stop the ICM, make the change in the table, and the restart the managers.
    Any idea why ?
