Do i install apples 10.5.8 updates before or after i install 10.6?

Im upgrading from leopard to snow leop., but i just noticed there are several software updates and hardware updates available from apple that i need, should i d
o them before or after i install snow l.?

You don't need any updates for Leopard. See the following:
Snow Leopard General requirements
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Now, if you wish to access the App Store you will need to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.6 or greater. To do that after you've installed Snow Leopard just download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • Should I download Aperture 3.6 compatibility update before or after downloading Yosemite?

    I'm running Mavericks OS on my late 2009 MacBook.
    I would like to download Yosemite but I'm worried about my photos on Aperture 3. Should I download the Aperture 3.6 compatibility update before or after downloading Yosemite.? Thanks.

    I bought Aperture 3 from the App Store some time ago but got it updated regularly
    Does that mean, you are now running Aperture 3.5.1? Then you should be seeing Aperture on the Purchases tab of the App Store and your Aperture license has been associated with your Apple ID.

  • PeopleTools update before or after database creation

    Hi, there:
    We need to create a new environment with latest PeopleTools and FSCM. The latest PeopleTools is 8.49.20. Can I install PT 8.49.20 before creating the database? Or I need to create the datbase first and then update the PeopleTools.
    Thanks for any help.

    The latest Peopletools version/patches is 8.49.21 :-)
    And, yes, you can install the latest PT before creating the database.
    Just be aware, all the Peoplesoft application 9 (I assume you want FSCM9.0) have been delivered within Peopltools 8.48, that means you'll have to upgrade your database to the latest version of the Peopletools (the one you are installing) immediately after the database creation/load. Follow the dedicated chapter in the Peopletools install guide.

  • Update apps before or after upgrade?

    I've got numerous updates waiting. So should I update before or after I upgrade to IO5? Your thoughts?

    OK, I'l answer/update my question. Yesterday, I backed up my iPad 2 and then downloaded/installed the new IO5 (as per directions via iTunes). That took most of the morning. Then I updated my apps. Most seem to work fine. However, one app (FreeBooks) quit/exited every time I tried to use it, and my library was gone. So I just ended up deleting the app. Then I reinstalled it and re-downloaded my library. Bit of a pain but no big deal. So my upgrade went pretty well. I'm loving the new four-finger gestures so I don't have to use the Home button as much.

  • I am unable to install updates of 768mb after a recent reinstall on my iBook G4

    I am unable to install updates of 768mb after a recent OS reinstall on my iBookG4 with Leopard installed over the original Tiger. The process locks up at "configuring installation". What can I do please?

    Again, does the iBook work okay with the version of Leopard that is installed now? Which version of Leopard is that?
    I take it that you are trying to move up to Mac OS X 10.5.8?

    Note: That download size is 759 MB.

  • I have just re-installed CS6 Master and it would only doewnload 1gb of the 3gb  of updates before it refused to download the remaing 2.2gb because it couldn't update the Application Manager. WHY? It was updating okay before I re-installed it.

    I have just re-installed CS6 Master and it would only doewnload 1gb of the 3gb  of updates before it refused to download the remaing 2.2gb because it couldn't update the Application Manager. WHY? It was updating okay before I re-installed it.
    Further, it sends you top the Analyser which is no longer supported and it sends you to a page for CS6 which refers you back to it at the bottom. THere was no reference to Application Manager in the log file, only Extension, Restart and Font managers.

    Eventually found the patch  on Google Search. Its in CC and includes the CS versions.ApplicationManager8.0_all.exe

  • Windows Update Error 800B0109 after Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320 Installed

    Hi, I have this error message when running windows update, it happened after Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320 installed.
    Any idea how to resolve this?
    Thank you.

    Hi，
    Please make sure that your antivirus application does not scan the files in the
    %windir% \SoftwareDistribution directory on any computer on which Windows Update Agent is installed.
    You can also temporarily turn off the antivirus application and check the result.
    Or run the following commands, and press Enter after each command:
    Net stop wuauserv
    cd %systemroot%
    Ren SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
    Net start wuauserv
    Try to install updates again.

  • I updated the iTunes, after that when I conect to PC it say insert the SIM. I have SIM in.

    Dear
    Fisrtly, I would like to explain about my problem. I updated the iTunes after that, when I connect with USB. It is saying, there is no SIM card installed the iPhone you are attempting to active.
    And next message says, please disconnect and insert a SIM card in the iPhone, but I tried by different SIM cards.
    The slit is ok as well; I think something wrong with this iTunes I updated, because this is not my first time.
    I would like you give me some information about it, what should I do?
    Best Regards
    J.M.E.R

    Authorized reseller or not, it's a gray market phone that must have been bought in the US and shipped to Saudi Arabia. Are you sure it was an authorized iPhone reseller, or was it a general Apple reseller who is not authorized to sell iPhones? Whatever it was, they are violating their agreement with Apple, and, as the phone has FaceTime on it, they are violating KSA law.
    However, the good news is that it will work if you remove the Verizon SIM and insert a local SIM - unless they phone is actually a used phone that is locked to some other former owner. But that will be obvious as soon as you try to activate it. You can check its history at: Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage

  • Repairing permissions before and after updating software

    What is the reason to repair permissions before and after updating software? This may sound like a stupid question to many of you, but I am new to computers and I am trying to learn how and why of some of the things of my PowerBook. I installed some updates without repairing permissions. Did I install some software updates the wrong way? Thank you.

    This is a topic which will draw as many emphatic for and against responses as overnight shut down or not, defrag or not, optimise or not, and so on.
    I agree with Neil. I believe that OS X has progressed sufficiently that repair permissions has become redundant and so I do not do it on any regular basis.
    Some folk may refer you to an Apple Support Article 303602. That Article in its 4 May 2006 version, titled "Top 10 Tips to Keep Your Mac in Top Form" suggested Repair Permissions should be done "after upgrading or installing new software". The Article was however revised on 15 May 2006 to be titled "Top Tips to Keep Your Mac in Top Form" and the item on Repair Permissions [along with two other recommended maintenance tips] was removed. It is my view that the conclusion to be drawn here is that Apple no longer considers Repair Permissions to be a required maintenance procedure.
    Many users have adopted a "Repair Permissions" mantra for a cure-all over several years. I dropped it sometime in 10.3.
    But, to each his own.

  • Problems before and after Uninstall and re-install CS4

    I went ahead and uninstalled and re-installed CS4 because of freeze ups and other difficulties. Program After Effects is now crashing - see attachment. There is also a problem with an importer plugin (I think) may be related. I can't tell. I have not tried any other projects. I did however, disconnect the Matrox MX02 Mini, but still had problems. The MX02 is now re-connected.
    I wonder if installing CS4 on top of CS3 is an issue? I remember having a similar problem goiing from CS2 to CS3. I had to downloader a cleaning utility from Adobe (I think) to remove every bit of CS2 and then run CCleaner.
    It's my own fault - trying to upgrade software and hardware at the same time. It's hard to isolate. For now, I'l just have to do with Premiere since it is working. But, I'd sure like to know what's going on.

    Did you re-install all other Adobe products as well? If not, then that may be the problem. Uninstalling/ reinstalling only one of them messes with MediaCore and certain otehr functions. The quick fix is to download the manuala (!) update packages for After Effects, Premiere Pro/Encore and Adobe Media Encoder from the support pages and run them. This usually bends things in place. If not, then you will probably have to uninstall again, this time including every Adobe app, use the CS4 Clean Script and reinstall.

  • Everyone:  This time repair your permissions before and after 10.4.8 update

    Hello All,
    Just a reminder for all those who are updating to OS 10.4.8.
    While many people do ignore all the recommendations that we provide and still come through fine, please do consider observing the following to minimize your problems.
    To insure the best chance of success, please consider downloading the Combo Updater for your computer instead of using Software update.
    For PowerPC Mac's, this would be:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1048comboupdateppc.html
    For Intel Macs, this would be:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1048comboupdateintel.html
    The benefit of using the Combo Updater, is that it replaces all system files that have been changed since the last major release (in this case since 10.4.0).
    So, if you have any system files that have become corrupted, the Combo Updater will very likely over-write those, and spare you the headaches that come from updating an operating system that has problems that just haven't come to the surface yet.
    In many cases, you can have problems that have not come to the surface, and the "Delta" or Software update method will bring them out to bite you. The reason for this, is because the Delta / Software Update version only changes files that have changed since 10.4.7. And, it works more in a "patch" fashion. So, if there is a problem in one of the files being patched, then the update will cause you some major headaches.
    Going with the larger "Combo" update over-writes almost all the System files with clean versions instead of just making patches. So, it is frequently much more successful.
    Now, with that said, before you update, you should make sure your permissions are all set properly. If your permissions are wrong, then your update will likely have trouble.
    So, go into "Disk Utility" in the Applications --> Utilities folder and repair your permissions.
    Start by selecting your hard drive on the left window of Disk Utility. Then, go down and click on the "Repair Permissions" button. Once it's completed, then exit Disk Utility.
    Now, it is also extremely important to make sure all running programs are closed before you install any system update. So, go ahead and restart your computer.
    Restarting will make sure that all programs are closed, and that nothing weird is stuck in memory before you install.
    If you have anti-virus programs running, then disable or deactivate them first (you don't want them interpreting this as unauthorized modification or it might prevent certain files from being updated).
    Now, with your computer freshly restarted, install the Combo updater you downloaded.
    When prompted, click on the "Restart" button when prompted.
    Now, the computer will startup, but sit at the spinning wheel for several minutes. It will eventually restart again on it's own. And, finally, it will start-up all the way and you'll be back at your desktop.
    Now, immediately go back to Disk Utility and repair permissions as you did in the previous step. You will likely see several permissions that have been repaired. In my case, I had dozens of CoreAudio, Widgets, and other permissions that needed repair. Once permissions have been repaired, go ahead and restart one last time. This makes sure that everything is set and then cleaned-up.
    Once it reboots, begin using it and enjoy.
    Now, this may sound like a lot. But, it really is simple. It just reads like a lot of stuff.
    And, of course, you are free to ignore this and just install it however you like. Many people have their own ideas here. And, many people say you don't have to do anything to prepare. But, for those that have had huge problems in the past, these extra steps will usually save you the major headaches that tons of people inevitably have with every new update.
    Anyway, I hope this helps to save at least a few of you any problems. If you don't agree with the ideas above, just ignore it and do as you like.
    But, if you want a little extra piece-of-mind and a better chance at success, then please consider exercising this extra caution.
    And, for the record, I have updated my machines to 10.4.8 (within minutes of the update being available) and it is working perfectly smooth on my systems.
    I hope you find this helpful.

    mhunter, thanks and good that you take the time and effort again to remind everyone that it does take an effort to do a major OS update, to ensure maximum stability.
    So far my 10.4.8 Update is a-okay, and I have had many trouble-free updates since installing 10.4
    I too practice rigourously and "religiously" before and after an OS or Security Update, but I normally use Software Update, equally successful:
    1. Before Startup, UNPLUG all external devices, left only keyboard, mouse and internet connection, unless they are all wireless.
    2. Startup, disable NAV if any, Repair Disk Permission. Restart again, Repair Permission again.
    3. Do Software Update
    4. Restart, Repair Permission
    5. Shutdown, plug everything back
    6. Startup Mac, use Mac
    So far these steps have been keeping all my macs both at home and at work very very stable and healthy.
    Maybe, just maybe if everyone here, all mac users were to follow these steps, yes they can be a hassle, yes they can take up some time, but then there will be less less complains and "blasts" at Apple, just because perhaps themselves have been too careless or negligance in performing updates.
    Cheers

  • Wifi problems since 10.5.8 Update. Even after Snow Leopard Upgrade.

    Wifi problems since 10.5.8 Update. Even after Snow Leopard Upgrade.
    Is there any way to use a 10.5.7 wireless .kext files on Snow Leopard? And where can I find the files?

    Ok, I have the fix!! After several frustrating days it finally just works.
    The process:
    Upgrade your Macs to 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
    Powercycle your modem AND time capsule / airport TWICE
    Reset your time capsule with a pin or paperclip on the back
    Follow the prompts to setup your time capsule / airport access
    -- On your Macs
    Go to System Preferences > Network > Airport > Advanced > TCP/IP
    Click "Renew DHCP Lease" then click "Ok"
    Click Apply
    Turn off Airport
    Turn Airport on
    IT WORKS!!!
    One of the magical people at tech support walked me through it earlier today. The whole process took about 1.5 hrs because Show Leopard takes about an hour to install on one machine.
    Hope this helps-
    Joshua
