Computer keeps shutting down when trying to update Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2! But says I have installed it 4 times already.

Hello All,
Today I updated my MacBook Pro Early 2011 from Lion to Mavericks. I then went onto my App Store and it says I have an update that I need to install. This update is the Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2. Everytime I press update, it says that it is downloading, but suddenly my computer just turns off with no warning when the download hasnt even started. I'm worried that this will damage my computer! What I don't understand is that App Store says that I have already installed this update 4 times. But if so, why is it still saying that I need to update it?
Any help will be most appreciated!
Celine

Unfortunately after that I have no other suggestions... if it was my computer I would reformat the entire computer but you need a good backup to do that something is obviously corrupt and not acting right otherwise if you have another computer that you can use to update..

Sounds like you may have hard drive issues.
You can try using built in diagnostics if you have them by holding D on startup. If nothing special happens, your model does not have them. You can then try to boot to recovery by holding Option while starting up and selecting Recovery HD. (Run Disk Utility Repair) If no Recovery HD appears, then you have a bad hard drive or an older OS than supports it.
If neither of those works I'd take it to an Apple store or Authorized Apple Service Provider near you for a diagnostic test. Apple will do it for free, so it's preferred for a test, but may not be the best price for a simple hard drive replacement. Head over to locate.apple.com to find the nearest AASPs and Apple Stores and set up an appointment.

When trying to update phone, a message says i have purchased items that have not been transferred to iTunes, what is this?

We need a bit more information to help.
Are you trying to update your iPhone using iTunes on your computer? If so, did you make purchases through the iTunes Store or App Store on your iPhone, and fail to sync them with your computer? That is the likely meaning of what you are seeing. If this is true, the purchases would be added to iTunes in your computer before the upgrade proceeds.

Computer Shuts down when trying to update to v4.2

Hi Internet,
I am trying to update my firmware from version 4.1 to 4.2 and as I click the update button, my computer just shuts down and does not update.
It's like the update button is acting as the shutdown button from the start menu.
Is anybody else having this problem?
I have tried contacting apple customer support and end up playing the ping pong game from operator to operator.
Please help

Why does image capture keep shutting down when trying to download pictures from iphone

Hi, open Console in Utilities, watch for clues/errors as you try it.

My computer keeps shutting down.

My computer keeps shutting down. It just goes black. To turn it back on, I have to wait a few minutes before pressing the button. When it comes back on, it seems to take longer than usual. It seems more likely to do this when I have several programs running at once. There might be a flickering light on the lower right side.
It's a desktop computer.
Any guesses?

I had a similar, but different problem. My iMac running OS 10.5.6 wouldn't start up all the way. I would get the Apple logo and the spike gear on the grey screen, and after a while the computer would go off (black screen). I started from the install disk and got horrifying red messages that disk utility couldn't fix it. AIEEEEE! I bought Disk Warrior, and fearfully rebuilt the disk directory. Problem solved.
Strangely, neither my Apple store nor a large electronics store carried Disk Warrior. Nobody at the stores knew why, although they said they had lots of inquiries about it. Third try I found DW version 4.1.1. Problem solved.

Sounds like you'll need to access that drive while it is not booted. You need to replace it anyway, so do that, then one way or another (ext enclusure, et), access it and copy files.
If you keep trying to boot it, you might kill it for good and not get your files, so just swap it out first.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you've already tried something like the above then try opening iTunes in safe mode (press and hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases. You may find that iTunes opens normally now.

Palm Desktop shuts down when trying to view calendar by month

I'm using a Palm TX with the latest edition of Desktop installed (I think that's 6.2). Everything is normal except, suddenly, I cannot view my calendar in monthly view. Daily, weekly and yearly all work fine. Desktop shuts down when trying to view in monthly view. I did a system restart, a Desktop reinstallation, a download of the latest version and installation of that version and, finally, uninstallment of the existing Desktop, download of the newest version and installation of that version. Nothing seems to enable me to view the calendar in monthly view. This is a spontaneous event. I've been running Desktop on a Vista Ultimate system since February without incident. I have no idea about how to solve this.
Thanks
Post relates to: Palm TX

Well, here's where we are now. It's a good thing that I have desktop on my office computer because when I tried a Hotsynch with my home desktop, Hotsynch wiped out all the data on my handheld and then hung up both the handheld and desktop in the middle of the Hotsynch. I'm going to overwrite the entire handheld with the office desktop file. As for the home setup, I'm thinking the only thing I can do now is uninstall Palm and wipe out the entire directory of files. Am I correct about this? Do I need to do a clean uninstall?

The first error has nothing to do with Photoshop - that's some .NET application.
The second error is most likely connected to a third party plugin or driver.
And you're running Photoshop CC (14.x) instead of the current Photoshop CC 2014 (15.x).
