Downloading of Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combined Update

Hi, I have tried to download Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combined UPdate, so it downloads then says the following: Mac OS X Update Combined (PowerPC) cannot be installed on this computer. Now I do not have Power PC what does this mean. How do I get to download for my Macbook?

You do not have a PowerPC-based Mac, you have an Intel-based Mac. Older Macs (e.g. iBooks, PowerBooks) used PowerPC chips (from Motorola/IBM), newer Macs (e.g. MacBooks, MacBook Pros) use Intel chips. You need this combo updater:

HT3606 Mac OS X v10.5.8 Combined Update stalls updating my G4 1.25

Mac OS X v10.5.8 Update stalls updating my G4 1.25. A peek at the files being installed was reference to "standalone i386 efi" which has no place on a PPC. Are there different versions of the combined update? There are different sizes of the combined update.

Some general advice on updating Leopard:
It is worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, as they have all been extensively beta-tested, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first to an external hard disk. Ideally you should always have a bootable clone of your system that enables you to revert to the previous pre-update state.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site.
The Combo updater of Leopard 10.5.8 can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Full details about the 10.5.8 update here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3606
More information on using Software Updater here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.5.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications and turn off energy saving and screensaver.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious! In fact a second restart can be recommended.
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them compliant with the latest version of your operating system. Give them a week or two while you regularly check their websites for updates.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
[b]If you are updating Safari (or just have):[/b]
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed an OS update and Safari is crashing, the very [i]first[/i] thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party add-on.
Additional tips on software installation here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
/Library/InputManagers
~/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).

Mac os X 10.6.2 Update v Mac os X 10.6.2 Combined update

Hello -
Dumb question I am sure but what is the difference between the two 10.6.2 updates?
Is one for clients that have 10.6 and the other for clients that have 10.6.1?
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi
Apart from a minor difference in their sizes. Yes.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL959
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL958
Right hand column. The bit that says "System Requirements". For the Server the Combo Update appears to have two extra 'fixes' not included in the other update. Probably because the previous 10.6.1 update included those extra 'fixes'?

Mac OS X Server 10.0.4 Update

Hello,
I've been going through my software and downloading all the updates I can find. I was wondering if any of you might have this in your archives, Apple seems to have "lost" it and my usual haunts have come up empty.
I've recently bought Mac OS X Server 10.0, and I have some of the other OS X Servers (for the Xserve), it seems finding (just the) updates you need before OS X Server 10.3 is hit or miss.
In one example I'm trying to find:
Mac OS X Server 10.0.4 Update: Document and Software
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120035
( http://download.info.apple.com/MacOSX/062-8318.20010702/0z/10.0.4ServerUpdate.dmg.bin )
Dumps you at:
" This URL is no longer used. If you get to this page, please go to:"
http://www.info.apple.com/export/
... do strange loop.
(My cookies are enabled)
I know this is old, thats not the point, why is this and for that fact most of the other updates missing?
I'm not real clear if 10.0 Server is update-able to 10.1 Server with the OS X 10.0-10.1 update CD for the regular OS X to which you may then UD to MacOSXUpdateCombo10.1.5, they mixed it up so you can't tell - or I can't tell.
Mac OS X Server 10.1: Chart of Available Software Updates:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42741
See what I mean?
Even OS X Server 10.0.3 Update would suffice. I'd appreciate you all poking around - I got nothing.
Mac OS X Server 10.3.x on, stuff is easy to find, Server 10.2.x and earlier is a pain and this is the last time (hopefully) I'll need to do this.
If anyone with these updates could contact me that would be great or just reply to this post, this server will not be online - just to be clear.
Any help would be appreciated.

Mac OS X 10.6.3 Combo Update v1.1

Hi out there,
I've tried to download the "Mac OS X 10.6.3 Combo Update v1.1", but if I opened the disk image I got a checksum error (same with the Security updates 003 for Leopard and Leopard server).
Does somebody know a link pointing to non-corrupted disk image files?
Greeting from Germany

Where are you? ISP's often cache frequently accessed files on their own servers to reduce Internet traffic with other servers that are far away in other parts of the world. Thus, the same URL may not always access the same server or file, even though it appears that it does.
Because of this, if you manually download an update & have trouble with it, it is a good idea to run the SHA-1 checksum procedure on it described in the links to info about that update to make sure it is identical to what Apple provides. (This is not necessary if you use the Software Update application to get the file since it automatically does that for you.)
If necessary, you can try again after the update becomes a less popular download the ISP no longer caches, the ISP caches it again for one reason or another, or try another ISP if that is an option for you. Unfortunately, it is not usually possible to choose between a cached copy on a nearby ISP's server & the original at Apple's site since the cacheing is done algorithmically by the ISP's software.

Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update Won't Mount

I recently downloaded the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update but whenever I try to open it I get this error;
"The following disk images failed to mount:
MacOSXUpdCombo10.4.10 - Input/Output error"
Now, this might not be a big deal for most people, but I'm on dial up and I REALLY don't feel like re-downloading it since it's such a big file. Is there anyway I can fix it?

So this could be the problem. I burned it on the disc and the disc looks kind of scratched. It says the file is the size it should be so I was wondering if there's anyway around this? Would cleaning the disc fix it? Or is there some program I could use?

Attempted to install AirPort Utility 6.0 on my new mac mini. Install failed and now the previous version 5.5.3 won't open. I downloaded and tried to instal 6.0 without software update, which failed, and my old 5.5.3 AirPort Utility still won't open? Help.

Now the previous version won't open. I downloaded and tried to instal 6.0 without software update, which failed, and my old 5.5.3 Airport Utility still won't open.
iTunes no longer recognizes my airport express.
Error Message:
None of the selected updates could be installed.
An unexpected error occurred.
Can't delete Airport Utility and reinstal from scratch as it is, “AirPort Utility” can’t be modified or deleted because it’s required by Mac OS X.
Any sugestions?

I reinstalled AirPort 5.5.3 which worked, but the app still won't launch but iTunes now recognizes my AirPort Express, I just hope I don't want to change its settings.

Recently got a new iPod 4th gen; I had previously backed up to iCloud and subscribed to iTunes Match, and then wound up syncing the new iPod to my MacBook Pro; all iCloud tunes were downloaded to Mac but won't all sync to the iPod - any suggestions?

Recently got a new iPod Touch 4th gen; I had previously backed up to iCloud and subscribed to iTunes Match, and then wound up syncing the new iPod to my MacBook Pro; all iCloud tunes were downloaded to Mac but won't all sync to the iPod after multiple attempts, despite all songs showing properly on the Mac and multiple syncs occurring after all songs were properly reflected on the Mac. I updated iTunes Match from the iTunes Store menu as well pre-sync.
I should mention that I had previously had the library on a Dell (which is still running) and shared it on my home network. While all iTunes purchases now show in the Dell, the Mac is the device I use for all syncs.
There appears to be no rhyme or reason to the iCloud physical sync failure - some songs were legacy, some were purchased via the PC, some on the old iPod.
The Mac shows all the songs correctly and none show iCloud status -all have been downloaded, but the downloaded songs that were previously showing up as iCloud based aren't syncing to the iPod.
Is there any way to force all music being seen by my iPod as iCloud to download to so I can listen to them offline? Is there a way to force the sync from iTunes?

The "system" performed as designed. All devices syncing to one iCloud account are kept in common sync. The idea is that all such devices belong to one user. Different users should have different iCloud accounts. Once your contacts were edited, all devices were updated as well and subsequent backups (from yours and her device) reflected the changed contacts (and any other data that may have been edited like calendars). Your first task is to change your daughter over to a new account before she makes other changes.
The only way I see for getting back contacts is to restore them from a time machine backup, assuming you also have a Mac included in the account which syncs the contacts. However, I'm not sure whether time machine includes contacts from iCloud along with those that are local, "on my Mac".
Otherwise the deleted contacts are gone.

How do I download the Mac App Store using OS X 10.5.8

how do I download the Mac App Store using OS X 10.5.8

Well, you can cancel your Snow Leopard order if it hasn't already shipped. You need not wait on it as you can download Mountain Lion now that you have a redemption coupon (I assume that's what you meant by the email.)
After Mountain Lion is installed you can download a free copy of Mavericks. This all assumes that your computer meets the requirements for Mountain Lion.
Before you do any upgrade I strongly urge you to do this:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Personally, I would erase the hard drive then install the new OS X version. First, make a backup of your files from which you can later restore.

Is this happing because the external is formatted to PC and not mac?
Yes that is correct.
Will I need to get a mac external hard drive if I wish to continue to save my documents like this?
If you no longer use a PC you could format this drive for the Mac. However be aware that formatting a drive will erase all the data on it. So you would need someplace to copy the data off this drive to while you did the re-format and then you could copy the data back.
You could get another drive, format it for the Mac and copy the data to it. Then re-format the original drive and use it as a backup drive. Always good to have backups.
Post back with the drive type and size of the current drive, if you are doing backups now and how and if you still need to access this drive from a PC.

70D software unable to download on Mac with or without CD's even changing OS's

I purchased a 70D bundle including software, I've tried downloading the software on my 6 month old Mac but have failed to do so. I even tried downloading it from Canon, and still does the same thing. I've changed from Mavericks to Mountain Lion as suggested from another blog but without success. I even called Mac support but failed to get it working. I love this camera but I'm getting very frustrated with this issue. Any solution to this problem?

Curioser and curioser. I'm doing okay getting the dmg from that link using an Internet Explorer 6. Yousendit (or a trying a different PC rather than the library one) might well be the best option for you in the short term.
In the long term:
+I'd also like to see Apple allow for a more direct route to do this sort of thing.+
I don't see why not ... after all, it's readily possibly to download the Mac version of the iTunes installer to a PC.
If you've got the time and inclination, it might be worth putting through some feedback to Apple about that. My best guess as to which feedback form to use might be the following one:
Website Feedback (broken links, etc)
(The Website Comments might be the category to use in that form.)

From what I have read, you can use neither of those option. Google Chrome OS is a completely different animal and you would need to check on the chrome website for apps that are available for use with it.
