Computer Notification says Update when I click the Udate fails at the 40% point

I am kind of stumped on this as it has happened quite a few times over the last 2 years and I use Adobe on my ViSalus Body By Vi 90 Day Challenge website www.flab2fabin90days.com as well as my blog http://bodybyvi90daychallengeinfo.blogspot.ca/ and other things I do on a day to day basis on my computer as I work from home with my home business
It is very frustrating and I though that maybe I had downloaded a corrupt program or something and tried doing system restore a few times which wiped out both my free anti virus with Avast and also Mcaffee ( lost McAfee twice ) resulting in my not being able to use my computer for my home based business for a week while it was in a repair shop, which is when I bought McAffee. When this problem happened again I did a system restore for the 2nd and 3rd time and somehow it had cancelled my subscribtion with McAffee both times resulting in my having to contact their tech support and spend an hour + correcting the problem
Does anyone have an idea as to why I can not complete these downloads I get when I get the system notifications from my computer?

Download the offline installer here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
As to your other issues. Adobe Reader contains NO APIs or code that would have ANY affect at all on antivirus software. NONE.
Running two different A/V programs (Avast AND McAffee) is one of the absolute worst things you can do if you want and need a stable system. It gets even worse if one of those programs is McAffee. It doesn't "play well" at all with other A/V apps. Pick one or the other and stick with it, but you're begging for trouble if you keep both.

Dear ED3K:
First: I hope you don't work for Apple as you have some poor communication skills in assistance. That said, I would never in a million years pay you 45 dollars to help me. I think I would sleep with Satan first!!
No one here works for Apple. This is a user-to-user technical support forum. Everyone here is a volunteer. You tend to get from this forum what you bring to it. If you come in ranting and raving and saying you're going to throw your iPhone out the window and that Apple is mean, people are not likely to respond to you with sweetness and light and puppies and kittens.
If you really want help, I'd suggest you take a deep breath and then start a new thread in which you explain the problems you're having, the steps you've taken to resolve the problems, any error messages you've gotten. Stick to the facts. Check the attitude and emotion at the door. People will do their best to help you.
Best of luck.

Having problems Updating iTunes 10.6.3, iT wont update when I click the update button. How do i fix this problem? And does anyone esle have this same issue?

Having Problems Updating iTunes 10.6.3, it wont update when I click the download button to update the itunes. What should I do to fix the issue? And does Anyone esle have this problem?

Just want to update the problem everybody is having downloading the new update. If you waited, and didn't try to reinstall or anything, it looks like a "fix" is coming to you. My previous ITunes was working fine so I decided to just wait it out and see if Apple would fix it. Knew it wasn't my computer because of all the same questions in this forum. And I want to let all to know that when I signed on to my computer today an Apple Software Update window popped up on my desktop. (Not the little one we've all been clicking on from the ITunes screen.). This came up right on my desktop. I clicked on it to download and it worked like a charm. After it was done downloading I pulled up ITunes and all looked great, all my purchases, songs were still there. I then plugged in my IPod and then my IPad and they both synced, etc., ....all is well again! So it you didn't try to re-install or anything, and have just been waiting and using your current version of ITunes, be patient. Looks like the fix will be coming to you, too.

My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet".How can I change ip address?

Ipad will connect no problem to other networks.

First thing you need I think is to get your iMac connected to the Internet.
Shut down your iMac and you iPad. Then power off your router. Wait 30 seconds and power up the router.
After the router indicates that it is connected to the Internet then start up your iMac and see if it connects. If the iMac connects to the Internet then your iPad should too.
If this power up sequence doesn't work you'll have to dig into the router setup to make sure it is working properly.

you may be connected to the wireless network but the question is the internet working properly on the wireless network...
what i mean is that i can make a wireless network without the internet so i can save and share files and have other devices connected to the same network access them... but you have to make sure that your internet it running properly... may have to reconfigure the router is your using PPPOE or if it was working prior to your post then try to restart your modem... that usually resolves most issues.

Hi karlos16,
For the error message you are seeing, I found this article:
iCloud: Troubleshooting creating backups
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3992
"This iPhone cannot be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available."
This message is displayed when there is not enough storage space available in your iCloud Storage to complete your backup. You can either reduce the amount of data you are backing up under Backup Options, or you can buy more storage.
For the issue with the iPhone appearing to be unresponsive, I recommend this article for troubleshooting:

Everytime I open a window in Firefox 4 beta 2 I get a messeage that says TypeError: Components.classes(cid) is undefined, when I click OK it opens up the new window. How can I fix this?

Everytime I open a window in Firefox 4 beta 2 I get a messeage that says TypeError: Components.classes(cid) is undefined, when I click OK it opens up the new window.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

How do I install recommended updates, when I click on adobe flash plugin update now buttons, I hit a dead end on oracle's website, how do I complete the update?

How do I install recommended updates, when I click on adobe flash plugin update now buttons, I hit a dead end on oracle's website, how do I complete the update?

First, grab the Adobe uninstaller from here:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html
Then download Flash 10.3.183.90 from here - about halfway down the page:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
(Released 6/11/2013) Flash Player 10.3.183.90 (61.1 MB)
IMO, the best version of Flash for WinXP. Adobe kept up with security updates for 10.3 for WinXP users long after Flash 11.0 came out in 2011 for Vista and newer versions of Windows.
Run the uninstaller, then reboot your operating system.
Then you can run the Flash installer, with Firefox closed, of course.
''Note, if you still use IE you'll need to reinstall the ActiveX version of Flash for IE. That uninstaller removes all versions of Flash that might be installed,''

My brand new mac book pro, which I've only turned on about 20 times since I purchased it, start making a loud constant clicking noise today -- it sounded like a combination of a computer notification tone and a weird druming sound. What's the problem?

Is this thing a piece of junk? My MacBook Air is running fine. I've literally only charged the MacBook Pro battery a handful of times -- it's brand new.

At these prices don't screw around. Just call applecare to arrange an appointment at the nearest apple store.
Alternatively post in the Macbook Pro forum. This is the Mac Pro forum.

Very recently, my computer stopped opening quicktime when I click on a video clip in iphoto, Its quicktime X, and it works to play videos if I open quicktime and then search for the video. How do I go back to quicktime automatically launching from iphoto?

Well since I do not have iPhoto 7 I can only guess what may be: As far I can remember up to iPhoto 8, iPhoto insisted on Quick Time Player 7. As I can see you have Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) and there Quick Time X is the standard playaer. Basically Quick Time 7 is not part of Snow Leopard.
Can you please check if Quick Time 7 is installed under Applications->Utilitis (in 10.6 Quick Time 7 if presenet is installed not under Applications - there Quick Time X is - but under Application/Utilities).
If not: insert your Snow Leopard installation DVD.
Once the installer opens, double-click on the Optional Installs folder
Double-click the Optional Installs.mpkg package
Click continue.
Select the option for QuickTime 7 then click Continue to start the installation.
If it is there you may try to move the iPhoto prefernce file to another folder and let iPhoto create a new one.
Please keep the old file until you are sure that iPhoto works how it should.
The iPhoto preference file can be found under your home folder then Library then Preferences and there
com.apple.iPhoto.plist
As alraedy mentioned do not delet this file, since if something goes wrong you can put it back.

I also have this problem. The Number two shows up in the App Store screen. I go to purchases and there are no apps that require updating. The number two in the App Store still remains on my screen. Has anybody found the solution yet? I called Apple, Only to be told that I should back up to iTunes on the computer, and then restore my iPad from the computer to eliminate the number two on the App Store screen. I'm hesitating to do that. Suggestions?
