This indicates a mucked up installation, since the SU can't find the PackageKit file. Reinstall Snow Leopard from your install disc.

  • Getting Error Message when trying to use Software Update in the Mac App Store...

    Hello,
    I was wondering if someone knows what this error message in the Mac App Store means. I am trying to run Software Update by clicking in the Apple Menu however, I am not able to see my available updates and instead get the following message on the Mac App Store:
    I have tried to fix the error by deleting both the Mac App Store Caches and plist files in the user library and made sure that I am properly logged into the Mac App Store with my personal Apple ID.
    What else can I do?

    I've been having the same issue. It was all fine until yesterday when I was searching for updates.
    Since when have you been seeing this error message?
    Last time I checked for an update was about 2 weeks ago and there were no errors reported. However, today I wanted to update iTunes to version 10.7 and decided to use the standalone installer rather than the SU version. Still, I decided to run the MAS Software Update function in order to ensure that my computer had all its software up-to-date and then I get this message. I don't think that me installing iTunes is to blame. Probably, it could be an internet connection problem on Apple's end I am still submitting a bug report to Apple.
    Now one question, who is your ISP (internet service provider)? In my case I have Comcast and I am in Florida.
    Thanks for your reply!

    Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
    If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

    I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store.  I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are.  My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade.  Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution.  Here are the steps to take:
    1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
    2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left.  If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase.  You know what to do.
    3. There is also an option to  reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
    4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy.  Select "Remove All Website Data."  Just do it.
    5. Launch the app store and sign in.
    6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
    I hope this helps.  Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.

    Hi Robertfrom Denver.
    Did you try the solution given, and if yes, did it work?
    I have done several "attempted downloads, and see the full file download, typically taking 30 minutes to complete, and then something goes wrong.
    I am happy to suspend AV and FW software, but would like to know if it is a good fix or not first?

    How to remove a Windows Update in Vista
    If the fix works I recommend that you 'hide' it so that it doesn't get reinstalled automatically.
    Instructions below:
    If you don't want Windows to install an update, you need to hide it.
    Open Windows Update by clicking the Start button . In the search box, type Update, and then, in the list of results, click Windows Update.
    In the left pane, click Check for updates.
    When Windows finds updates for your computer, do one of the following:
    Click the link that tells you important updates are available if you have important updates to hide.
    Click the link that tells you optional updates are available if you have optional updates to hide.
    Right-click the update you don't want to install, and then click Hide update. The next time you check for updates, the update won't be automatically selected or installed.  If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  • Security code is invalid error message when trying to download app update

    When i attempt to download an app update on my IPhone 4, the phone gives me a "sign in required" message and then brings me to my billing information.  It then states my security code is invalid but it isnt.......

    Also, make sure your billing address is exactly correct.  iTune's accounts seem to be very sensitive about this.

    Upon signing in and agreeing to the terms of service I recieve error 5002. I have restored the iPod and the error still occurs. I have tried purchasing the update on multiple Apple accounts and on multiple computers, both Mac and PC with no success.
    Any idea how to fix this?
    Thanks!

    Try this artilce.

    It says:
    This alert is often the result of an issue with verifying your billing.
    Quit iTunes.
    Open iTunes.
    Test the issue.
    If it persists, sign in to store.apple.com using your iTunes account
    Click on Change account information
    Modify or remove your credit card information.
    Click Continue.
    Test the issue.
    It could be related to the errors than some users are seeing today and yesterday about checking billing address.
