Cannot install security backups anymore

After having tried to install security backup 2008-07 (stuck) it is merely impossible to install any security backup. I have already re-installed 10.5.5 Combo, repaired permissions, downloaded the update images, tried to install older security updates and so on.... the installer doesn´t let me choose my HD and says it´s not qualified for the update. Never had any problems with the automatic software installer but something must have happened..... who knows help?

I think I´ll try TechTools first. Also many thanx to you!
I never recommend a reinstall because if it doesn't fix anything you are back to square zero and if it does, you never know what it was. And things have a way of coming back.
TechTools is great.
DiskWarrior does different things from TT.
You might also DL some RAM-checking software and run it overnight.
Check console logs for information, too.

    Hello
    More information would be useful, for example which Mac OS are you running.
    On the left menu item  About this Mac provides useful information.
    Also did you use Software Update to determine the update?

  • MacOsX 10.9 cannot install or update anymore creative cloud applications including Desktop

    Hi I recently updated Lightroom5 and today I was trying to open an image in PhotoshopCC when I have been asked to update Camera Raw.
    Since then I tried everything to make it install but I always had "error code 7 , driver wan not added," error message.
    I looked into the forums and tried everything including uninstalling Photoshop CC ( damn error!! ) and reinstalling it through the application manager but it kept on failing.
    Then I tried using the Cleanup Tool but it only cleaned up my Creative Cloud Desktop manager so now I have to install it and, guess what ? It fails with no error message.
    Is there any Tarzan here to get me out of this unbelievable jungle?
    I always praised Adobe for the products but this is a huge mess, I have works to deliver next week and I have no Photoshop anymore!!,

    Hi all
    I solved the issue by applying the procedure suggested here :

  • Cannot install Security Update 2007-009  "could not verify contents ..."

    My system:
    Mac Pro dual Quad-Core 3Ghz 7GB Ram
    Boot ROM Version: MP21.007F.B06
    SMC Version: 1.15f3
    When running software update, I get this notice:
    The update "Security Update 2007-009" can't be installed.
    The Installer could not validate the contents of the "SecUpd2007-009" package. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.
    I have no phone support for this mac, so "contacting software manufacturer" leave me few options. Google search returns nothing, search on this forum returns nothing, so hopefully my issue reaches someone who can advise me on how to solve this problem. Reinstalling the system software, IMO, is not a resolution.
    Thanks for your time

    Welcome to Discussions!
    I would suggest downloading the Security Update file separately and try installing it that way. You can get the Leopard-compatible version HERE. Once installed, Software Update will stop trying to install it and generating the error message.

  • Cannot install CS3 extension anymore on CS5 with the new Extension Manager

    Hi,
    I got accustomed to using extension such as the Guide Panel, offered from the Adobe Developer page. This extension, among many others has been created for CS3 but has always worked as far as I can remember. Now that I try to install them, the Extension Manager gives me the error:
    This extension can not be installed, it requires Fireworks version 7 or greater.
    Does anyone have an idea how to surpass the version checking? After all I have a CS5, the error message thus doesn't make sense.
    See you!

  • RMAN to Disk (shared mounted file system) then secure backup to Tape

    Hi
    This is a little away from the norm and I am new to Oracle secure Backup.
    We have several databases on physically separate servers, all backup to a central disk (a ZFS shared file-system).
    We have a media server also with the same mounted file-system so it can see all of the RMAN backups there.
    Secure backup is installed on the media server and is configured as such.
    The question I have is I need to backup the file system to tape where all the RMAN backups live, I have configured the data set but I get file permission errors for each of the RMAN backup files in the directory.
    I have tried to change these permissions but to no avail (assuming it is just a read write access change that is needed - but this may be a problem in the long run). What is the general process for backup of already created RMAN backups sat in a shared area? I know its not the norm to do to disk then to tape backups but can this be done? I would have installed Secure backup client on each server and managed the whole backup through secure backup but this is not possible I must do the to tape from the file system, any advise and guidance on this would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards
    Vicky

    You can easily accomplish a very streamlined D2D2T strategy! RMAN backup to disk...then backup that disk to tape via RMAN and OSB. Upon restore, RMAN will restore from best media disk or tape based on where files are located.

  • Hello, I need help with my macbook pro. It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, use the migration assistant or click the lock to make changes, it simply does not react.

    Hello, I need help with my macbook pro.
    It looks like I cannot install anything anymore. Everytime I try to install a new software, I simply get stuck during the installation type process. I put in my password, it does accept it, but it does not go any further.
    I tried to reset the password, put no password, repair the permissions, the disk but nothing will do. I nearly got stuck with the log in screen but finally succeeded in disabling it.
    So I thought I might try to create a new account but I cannot click the lock to make changes. It simply refuses to react.
    I am now thinking about using the migration assistant to save all my settings, data and so fourth, but again I get stuck when I have to type in my password. It accepts it but nothing happens...
    I guess it has something to do with the authorization process, but can't find anything on the internet about it... Can you help me out?
    I am running Lion 10.7.3.
    Regards,

    (I apologize if any grammatical/structural mistakes were to be found, english is not my mother-tongue. )

    You probably won't like this suggestion, but I suggest you reinstall Lion.
    First, backup your system. Next, reboot your system, press/hold the COMMAND-R keys to boot into the Recovery HD. Select 'Reinstall Mac OS X'. If you purchased Lion as an upgrade to Snow Leopard, the reinstall process will install Lion 10.7.3. If your system came preinstalled with Lion, you might still get Lion 10.7.2. Both installs are a total install of the OS. None of your apps or data will be impacted. Just the OS.

  • I cannot install Lion to a backup drive for my new Mac Mini

    I just bought the new Mac Mini with an i7 processor last week. I wanted to format a backup drive for it. When I tried to use the Lion Recovery partition on the new Mac Mini, I keep getting an error message that says it's incompatoble with the current model.
    I also tried to use the Lion thumbdrive I purchased from Apple to see if that can be used, but it also give me the incompatible message.
    Is there a special version of Lion that's only for the new Mac Mini's?
    Any help is appreciated!

    Mac mini (Mid 2011), MacBook Air (Mid 2011): Use Lion Recovery instead of OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive
    Last Modified: September 01, 2011
    Article: HT4905
    Summary
    Learn about using Lion Recovery or the built-in OS X Lion recovery partition rather than OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive with computers released after OS X Lion.
    Products Affected
    MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2011), MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2011), MacBook Air (Mid 2011), Mac mini (Mid 2011)
    Use Lion Recovery to restore Mac computers released after OS X Lion. If you attempt to use the OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive, a message will appear stating that you cannot install this version of OS X on your computer. This is correct behavior to make sure you install only the correct and most up-to-date version of Mac OS X on your computer.
    Note: You can also use the Lion Recovery Disk Assistant on your Mac to create a bootable image to make sure you recover the correct version of OS X Lion. To use the Lion Recovery Disk Assistant, you need to have your own USB drive.
    Additional Information
    If you have a network connection, you should receive the appropriate version of Mac OS X when using the built-in Recovery HD partition on Macs running Lion.

  • How to install and configure oracle secure backup(osb-10.4.0.3.0_linux.x64) in linux

    Hello,
    We are planning to install and configure Oracle Secure Backup Version 10.4 in Linux server. I had searched documents and i have not find any relevant steps to install and configure in OEL 6.2.
    Can anyone please suggest me how to install and configure OSB.
    Regards,
    Anil

    Hi
    Installing OSB on Oracle Linux is just the same as installing on any other supported linux and is described in Installation and Configuration guide. Just stick with the directories and procedure described in install guide and you should be fine.
    For media server choose a physical host due to performance considerations. I think it is mentioned in docs somewhere.

  • Cannot install Yosemite as it keeps telling me both my internal and external drives are time machine backups

    Cannot install Yosemite. Keeps telling me that both my internal and external
    drives are backing up with TIme Machine. Any suggestions?

    Is it actively backing up, or are you encountering a dialog stating that Yosemite cannot be installed because the disk is being used for Time Machine backups?
    Read OS X: Cannot install on a volume used by Time Machine for backups
    If for some reason you have a folder called Backups.backupdb at the root level of the hard disk on which you want to install Yosemite, move it to the Trash.

    Corrected problem by updating Adobe Flash~ even though I just updated it two days ago~ but that solved the problem.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Security Update 2013-003 is available for Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion. You can download the Snow Leopard version > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1670
    You don't have enough space to install the update, so you have to delete things from the hard drive or move them to an external drive. See > http://thexlab.com/faqs/freeingspace.html

  • I have a MBP running Mountain Lion. Tried to install Mavericks, but it keeps telling me that my disc is used as time machine backup, and cannot install Mavericks, any help appreciated

    I have a 2011 MBP running Mountain Lion. Tried to install Mavericks, but it keeps telling me " cannot install Mavericks because disc is used for Time Machine backup". I tried disabling TM by issuing the command in console " sudo tmutil disable local". Still no luck. Is there a way of erasing all the time machine backups from my system disc?
    Thanks.

    Thanks Matt. I tried erasing the "Backups.backupdb" folder. It does not allow me to do that, inspite of "sudo"-ing. I ended up installing Mavericks on another disc, and use disc migration assistant to transfer my data, before swapping out the old disc from the MBP.

  • Cannot install backup to supervised iPads

    Created a backup from one iPad and installed on Apple Configurator. The backup contains all my apps in folders for our elementary school. Then deployed the backup to 25 iPads. Left for the day. Returned to school and hooked up the rest of my iPads but cannot get the backup to take. They are no longer 'fresh' out of the box. I have tried erasing. Unchecking my profile that does contain 'do not install apps'. Can Apple Configurator become corrupted and if so how do you repair? Has anyone run into this mess and what solution did you find that I must be doing wrong. Many thanks.

    I haven't seen this... but most of the time when Apple Configurator is misbehaving a reboot fixes it. After that, here's what I would try if I was in your shoes:
    Create a new backup from the Supervised "master." Manually erase the iPads that haven't been restored yet (Settings - General - Reset - Erase All Content and Settings). Try restoring the new backup.
    If that didn't work I would close out of Configurator, remove all Configurator preference and cache files (burried in various folders within ~/Library). Relaunch Configurator and try again.
    If that didn't work I would do the above step again but reinstall Configurator before trying again. Before reinstalling I would also run a permissions repair using Disk Utility. I would also check permissions on files/folders in my home directory.
    Again, I haven't come across this particular problem but these are the troubleshooting steps I would try if I was experiencing this. I hope this helps. If you find another solution please post it!
