Error -3001 when upgrading to 10.5.3

getting a -3001 error with a recommendation to check my internet connection. Software Update is able to find the 10.5.3 update via internet connection. Mail, Safari, .Mac Sync all also work, network connection is green...can't figure out why it won't allow a download of the software update. This is for my MacBook if that matters...
any thoughts?

Try creating a new Admin account (System Prefs/Accounts/unlock/+), logging off your normal account, logging in on the new account and running Software Update from there. If this works it will do the update for all users and you can go back to using your usual account but it will probably not 'really' solve the problem and you will likely have to repeat the process for each new update (though you can go on using the same new account).
Update notifications on your usual account are probably correct.

  • Error 3194 when upgrading to ios 7.

    I receive error 3194 when upgrading to ios7 on my iphone 4 ( and I really don't know if it is 4s or just 4).  I am working though the itunes softward on my home computer.  It seems I am stuck in something called recovery mode.  I have tried a variety of suggestions found on the web (e.g., editing a "host" file, checking firewalls and connectivity, etc.) to no avail.  Any suggestions?

    The iPhone was either previously jailbroken (the DFU restore should have fixed that) or it has a hardware error. I would vote for the latter.

  • Encountered error 6  when upgrading Iphone 5s from 7.1.2 to 8.3

    I encountered error 6  when upgrading Iphone 5s from 7.1.2 to 8.3
    I've tried upgrade iphone on three computers , the results are all the same.
    One of the computers successfully upgrade my ipad to 8.3.
    There are 2GB left on IPhone 5S before I perform the upgrade.
    It should be enough for iTunes to finish the process, right?
    But in the log, it says  "copier_file_error: /mnt2/mobile/Library/PreinstalledAssets/com_apple_MobileAsset_Font.cpio: No space left on device"
    why is that?
    Any way for me to continue the upgrade?  it seems it's almost done.
    Thank you

    Hello there, Kenduck.
    It sounds like you are trying to update your iPhone 5s to the most current version of iOS and are getting an Error 6 message. The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great information in regards to that very error message:
    Get help with iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    Particularly:
    Check your security software
    Errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1611, 9006.
    Sometimes security software can stop your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.
    Check your security software and settings to make sure that they aren't blocking a connection to the Apple servers.
    If you still see the error message, check for USB connection issues.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Kind Regards,
    Pedro.

  • Error 8288 when upgrading my first gen Ipod Touch to IOS 3.1.

    I am having some trouble trying to get IOS 3.1 on my first generation Ipod touch.  I have the latest Itunes, I do not have any dvd burning software like Anydvd that can interfere, and I've tried it on two different computers with no avail.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    msoviolist, I opened a ticket via their so called "Express Lane" support page, I assume it'll take a couple of emails before they decide to credit you for the download. I would suggest linking to these two threads in the correspondence, this is what I included in the message;

    Try disabling anti-virus also. You can also download the updates (not upgrade that is AA XI) from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows. With the downloads, you typically have to install them in order. Only reboot after the last install.

  • Error 3001 when trying to watch a rented movie

    I've rented my first movie off iTunes Movie Rentals (Fantastic 4 - Silver Surfer). The file downloaded fine, but at the end of the download it shows error 3001 (There was a problem, etc.) but gives no specifics.
    I tried it on my MacBook Pro and my girlfriend's Dell, both running the latest version of iTunes, but I get the same error when trying to play the movie, or when I click "Resume Download" (although it looks like the movie had downloaded already).
    Any tips on how to fix this? I was looking forward to watching this with her tonight.
    Not a good first-time experience with this rental thing I must say

    I am getting the same error ("3001") when downloading - not watching. At first I was getting err = 8008. 8008 would happen about 1/3 through the download process. Download would freeze, and issue iTunes would alert an err = 8008. After contacting Apple, they claim to have reloaded the movie and instructed me to try again by:
    1. Delete my /User/iTunes/Music/Download folder
    2. Check for Downloads
    After several attempts, the download process finally proceeded past the original freeze point. Download is now 99.9% complete, but now crashes and issues a pop-up alert "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (3001). There was an unknown error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."
    1.6G of 1.7G has downloaded. When I try to "play" the existing file, I am presented with another 3001 error pop-up.
    Grrr....

  • Error Message When Upgrading Firmware for BEFW114S

    To all,
    I have a BEFW114S with a firmware 1.42.7 which I wanted to upgrade to 1.52.02  However, I got the following error message when I tried update the firmware:
    Message:  Warning!  Upgrade File Pattern Error
    Any ideas of what might be causing this.
    Thanks.

    Hi , here is the problem..... The firmware 1.52.02 is for the model no BEFW11S4 V4.0 and i believe you have BEFW11S4 V3.0...
    Download the firmware 1.45.10 for BEFW11S4 V3.0 and you should be able to upgrade the firmware successfully.

  • Itunes unknown error 3194 when upgrading to latest iOS

    I've been trying to upgrade my iPhone 3GS to 4.3.2, from 4.3.1 iTunes keeps reporting an unknown error 3194, when verifying the downloaded update. I don't know what is causing this.
    I have:
    - Rebooted my PC (Windows 7)
    - Rebooted iPhone
    - deleted the update and redownloaded
    None of these have solved the issue. Any ideas?

    Hi pablo2001jedi,
    The following link highlights the error code as being an issue with the connection to the Apple Server: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
    The link also has troubleshooting steps which you can try, but it is most likely some security software on your computer blocking the connection.
    The easiest quick fix would be to update on a known working PC & Network connection, however making sure any security software is correctly configured should also resolve the problem, you can find troubleshooting for this at the following link: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125
    Hope this helps.

  • Error message when upgrading to 7.3.2.6

    I just (attempted to) upgrade to 7.3.2.6 (and after the install, it all seems OK for now) - but during the install, I got a "files in use" error message window, mentioning that Windows Explorer was running (Process Id: 432), giving me the option to Retry, Ignore or Exit.
    I tried all options - I even Exited and rebooted - and re-upgraded after that, but keep getting the same error... So far iTunes seems to have upgraded and appears to be working - but could the install have missed some components now - and therefore should I expect trouble ahead?

    Yes, i had the same error message after upgrading to 7.3.
    I am using windows XP - i went to the Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Scrolled to iTunes & clicked on Change (not Remove), then clicked Repair. It all works fine after that.
    Search this forum - i hope you find a solution.

  • Odd error (-3001) when using Software Update since Leopard upgrade

    Whenever I try to install anything that shows up in Software Update now, I get this error:
    You do not have appropriate access privileges.
    A networking error has occurred: Cannot open file (-3001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again.
    However, I AM connected to the Internet, and I AM an Admin. I should have no problems doing this, and the issue only tarted when I installed Leopard. Anyone know of a fix?

    Anyone have any ideas about this one? Still can't do a software update.

  • Getting error 3001 when using Excel Easy Table.vi

    When making a call to Excel Easy Table.vi (Report Generation Toolkit) I get a 3001 error.
    I have attached an example VI to demonstrate the problem.  Please run "Add Table Example.vi" in the attached zip.  This sample program is made up of VIs from a larger program, so it made more sense to create a sample program and only include the required VIs than include the entire large program.  So that is why the Report class wire comes from a functional global VI.
    What is a bit strange is that Excel Easy Table is used to write a summary table at the top of the spreadsheet successfully in "Initialize Report.vi."  It is only when I then make the additional call to Excel Easy Table in Add Table Example that I get the 3001 error.  If you have any ideas why I'm getting the 3001 error, please let me know.
    I'm using LabVIEW 8.6 and RGTK 1.1.4.
    Thanks,

    Add Table Example.zip ‏113 KB

    Hey Joel,
    I figured out why this error was occuring. After comparing how you were adding the columns in the Report Write Info Table.vi in the Initialize Report.vi to just using the Excel Easy table VI, you hadn't provided a reference to which worksheet it needed to write the data to. I changed your code to include this reference and it worked perfectly without any errors. I have attached a .zip file with those changes so you can look at it.
    FYI: Don't try to use this code as a direct replacement with yours. In order for me to reproduce the error, I had to modify several VIs in order to get it to run.
    I hope this information helps you with it.

  • Error message when upgrading to the latest itunes

    i've been attempting to upgrade my old itunes to the latest one, as i have a new ipod which needs the latest progrm to run. it seems to download alright but when i click 'run' at the end of the install it gives the error message -
    invalid drive : F:/
    does anyone have any ideas how to make it download? or if not is there a way to make my new ipod run on my older itunes system, thanks.

    It is possible that the registry setting for one of your special folders is pointing at a drive that is not available.
    Try downloading TweakUI form Microsoft. This lets you set the location of special folders:
