FCP 5.1 won't update!?!?

Hello, I have FCP 5.1, just downloaded the latest 5.1.4 update. When I go to install the update I get this error:
"This updater is only able to update an existing Final Cut Pro 5.1 application. Please make sure the application is located in the Applications folder, and is called "Final Cut Pro"???
In my application folder I do have "Final Cut Pro.app" ?? I also downloaded "Pro applications updafe 2006-2" and had no problems.
Please help...

for this update Apple requires you to got to the FCP Studio 2 page/updates, sign up and then download<<</div>
First you should verify exactly which version of FCP you currently have installed. If it is 5.1 or higher, then the 5.1.4 update should be showing up in Software Update (it does for everyone I know). I'd be wanting to know why it isn't showing up in Software Update on your system - the answer to that may be the key to the problem.

FCP won't update to latest version iteration, 5.1.2

While running software update on my iMac dual core, I noted the automatic download of Final Cut Pro 5.1.2 plus a Motion update. Great... however, on my G5 dual processor, my FCP version is 5.0.4. I run the software update each week, including today, and there has not been a new version update on this FCP in weeks. I went to the software support for FCP and downloaded the 5.1.2 version which, of course, won't update 5.0.4 because the update will only update 5.1 versions. I went to the earlier update sections to see if I could locate a 5.1 update download, to no avail. The only version available in the earlier downloads section is the version I am already running on my G5, 5.0.4. Seems like a catch 22 here... is version 5.1.2 available for dual processor G5s? I updated to the entire studio and to the universal version of FCP several months ago and don't understand why I can't upgrade my G5 installed FCP. Any suggestions?? Thank you.

Hi, Patrick,
Thanks for your response... the unfortunate aspect is
that I have already crossgraded! And stilll the
upgrade won't upgrade.... mebbe a re-install of the
entire program might work, so I'll give that a try.
Thnx for your help! Much appreciated...
It looks as though you have the correct version on your iMac, but have not crossgraded on your G5. If you had crossgraded on your G5 the version number for that machine would show 5.1 or 5.1.1. Remember, just because you have a license for your iMac doesn't mean that you can install it on your g5 too. You have to have a separate license for each machine.

Final Cut Pro won't update

My Final Cut Pro X software won't update from 10.0.3 to 10.0.4
Has this occured to anyone else?
How do i solve my problem?

Did the update show as available to you for download when you went to App Store>FCP? Did it download but not install? Check Applications to make sure FCPX is not "hiding" in a folder.

Playsists selected for syncing no longer exist? ipod won't update

My new ipod won't update because it says that playlists I've selected for syncing no longer exist. For this reason I can't get any of my music onto my ipod and I don't understand what I am supposed to do to fix this
dell inspiron Windows XP

Hi guys, I've been having the same problem. Specifically, when I try to transfer songs from iTunes to my iPod I get the following error message: "Songs in the iPod "My iPod" cannot be updated because all the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist". I did some searching around at this site, and found that one possible problem is that my library is larger than my iPod's capacity, so I have to eliminate some songs. I did this, but I still get the same error message.

Certain apps won't update or download on any device.

I've searched for two weeks to no avail. I've seen similar problems posted but nothing quite like this. I have an iPhone 5s iOS 8.2, a 4th Gen iPad iOS 8.2 and Mac Mini Late 2014 OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. It all started with wanted to download the Pages app. My iPad is old enough it wouldn't let me download it for free so I initiated the download on my iPhone and then promptly cancelled. I then tried to download Pages from "the cloud" onto my iPad. It downloaded 3/4 of the way and failed stated that the app could not be downloaded at this time with two options to continue: done and retry. And now there are a handful of apps that will fail somewhere in the download and some apps that are already installed on the devices that won't update. Any app that has previously failed WILL download over cellular network on the iPhone 5s. I've tried four separate location with WIFI access and these same apps will not download. I've cleared network statistics, restored the iPhone to factory defaults, changed Apple ID password, tried a different Apple ID, and trying to download apps on Mac Mini to sync to iPhone/iPad over tethered connection. The only partial fix I have discovered is to start download over cellular network and switch to WIFI download. Please... any ideas. I feel I may have left out some steps I might have taken so please feel free to ask any questions.

I had this problem and solved it by going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
Note: This will not delete any apps, songs, videos, or podcasts from your phone. It will only reset your wallpapers, brightness, bluetooth, contact sorting, network preferences (still remembers networks though), etc. It's a bit annoying to go update all these back to how yo like, but much less annoying than a full restore.
DO NOT press Erase All Content and Settings. This will delete everything and you'll have to restore from iTunes.

IMac display issues: black icons and folders, doubled up files in finder windows, programs won't update

HELP!
I'm hoping someone can help with my iMac 27" purchased in 2010. From a previous discussion I started a year ago, I have had virtually nothing but trouble with it. After the internal hard drive crashing, I was able to install OS X on an external drive and used it for a good 8 months to drive my iMac and I took it to an expert who has replaced it with a 3tb HDD, but at some point the display has gone crazy. I am not certain if it is hardware, i.e. graphics card or video but I'll describe the symptoms and add some pics to see if anyone has seen this before and knows what the problem may be.
1.     90% of the screen was covered with white with just a portion of the desktop showing through.
        (This happened when I tried to reinstall OS X on the old HDD and the new one, but didn't happen when using OS X install disc)
2.     Files, folders, photos and some icons on the dock go black
3.     Files and photos double up when in Finder. When I'm viewing photos, it shows them but all the previous panes and the photos are jumbled behind the
        photos.
4.     Anything I open in Preview is completely black, but ColourSync Utility opens everything fine.
5.     Programs won't update. They will download onto my iMac but won't update. Some say, because I don't have OS X 10.6.8 others just won't open.
        Including Google Chrome, opens with two tabs open but when I open a third tab the rainbow wheel just turns. Skype won't open just gives a failure
        report.
6.     10.6.8 Update Combo downloads but when I restart the screen is covered in white - as in 1. and I have to reinstall OS X 10.6.2 to get the screen to               clear but then all the above problems continue.
7.     Sometimes videos don't display in Youtube, or the entire page other than the video player is covered in rainbow lines.
8.     Some buttons are blacked out on selection pages, i.e. system preferences, or saving screens
9.     Photos opened in FB go upside down and flicker all over the page as my mouse runs over them.
10.   Photos won't upload into internet editing programs.
I can't find anyone who has had the same issue in all of the discussions I've looked at, but it sounds like I have a video problem, but I wondered if it might be a software problem with flash or something. Or I have something malicious on my computer.
I also have an iphone 5 that faulted with the iTunes and USB icons and won't fix after trying one of those R-Sims, and I wondered if somewhere along the line it may have even had a virus/trojan/malware that has infected my external drive and then my internal drive. A reason I have thought that is because I have used my daughter's MacPro laptop and plugged in my external drive and I noticed the windows in hers were starting to do the same thing.
And on top of all that, my fans didn't work for over a year and I had to place an external fan at the back of the computer or it would overheat and shut down, but after resetting the SMU it started working again, but it is very noisy. I have tried to download SMC Fan Control and although it downloads to the HDD, it won't open.
Sorry its such a long post, I do hope with all of this information someone can help me.
Thanks so much.

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
*Soon after, I installed Quake Wars, L4D 1, 2, Mass Effect 2, Need For Speed: Undercover, Mozilla Firefox and *Sophos Enterprise AV*. Approximately a week after installation, I began to experience malfunctions varying greatly*
Macs get grumpy when running anti virus software. Disable or completely uninstall Sophos A/V and see if that makes a difference. A/V software on a Mac will slow the drive down more and more as time goes on.
Also, check the vendor sites for each 3rd party software you installed to make sure they are compatible with 10.6.x
The "hard reboots" are a result of the system freezing due to incompatible or outdated software.

If you are using the same apple id on other devices and each of the other devices are updating the same apps sucessfully then you have an issue going on with the device being what's known as being a bit 'glitchy' What I would suggest you do is first to shut down the device completely by simply pressing on the sleep wake button, (power button on the top) for a period of 5-6 seconds untill you get the message to slide bar to shut down. Once the device is shut down and the wheel has stopped spinning, you are then free to restart the device.
Once the device is restarted then please go to settings>itunes and app store Once at this area of settings you can then click on the apple id is showing there you then can click on the apple id going to where it reads sign out, Once you've signed out go right back to that same area and sign back in with the same apple id.
What this is doing is simply logging you out and then back in with the same device.
Good luck Friend.

My iTunes won't update on my computer. I have windows vista. I can open iTunes and when I click "check for updates" it asks if I want to update to iTunes 11.1.5 and I click "Download iTunes" but then nothing happens. What's wrong?

My iTunes won't update on my computer. I have windows vista. I can open up itunes and when I click on "check for updates" it asks if I want to download iTunes version 11.1.5 and I click "Download iTunes" but then nothing happens. Sometimes uptop the loading bar will appear but for only a split second. I have tried restarting, shutting down, I cannot figure out why it won't download. What's happening and how do I fix it?

Try updating using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

My Apple TV won't update and I can't sign into iTunes

I have the second generation Apple TV which is due an upgrade of software but it won't update. I kept getting a message saying that it wouldn't work. It also won't sign me in to iTunes and Netflix never works. Not sure of this has anything to do with not being able to upgrade. Can someone help?

We had this problem and a restart fixed it.

IPhone 5s won't update to iOS 8.0.2

My iPhone 5s won't update to iOS 8.0.2. I had been using beta versions of iOS 8 but even though there is a '1' in the Software Update box, it tells me my software is up to date (iOS 8).
However, I also get messages telling me my current iOS will expire in x days. I now have dozens of apps waiting to update, telling me I have to upgrade to iOS 8.0.1 or later.
I've tried to manually install iOS 8.0.2 but I get a message saying the firmware isn't compatible.
Any ideas?

Ask in the developer forum; someone there should be able to help you.

What in particular didn't you like about Firefox 6?
You can undo a lot of changes, either via changing settings or prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page or via extensions.

Do a clean reinstall of the version that you want to use.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
*Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Tags won't update

Hello,
I'm a DJ and I use Traktor as my DJ software and iTunes to manage my MP3 collection.
Sometimes when I update a genre i Traktor, iTunes won't update the tag. Sometimes it does. I checked the file in another software, and the change is there, but not in iTunes.
I downloaded a script called "Refresh", but it won't work. I removed the track and re:added it. Same problem.
This happens every 20 MP3s or so, but it's a major problem because I use Smart Playlists and want that genre change to be updated.
Please help me with this problem!

I know I could always rip them back to my computer and then use a seperate program, but I'd like to fix this problem because it's easier in iTunes
Any reason you do not keep your music in iTunes and update it there?
What will you do when your iPod crashes (it will) and you need to Restore it, therefore deleting everything on it?
I used to be able to update genre tags, however it won't allow me
No idea. Can't say I have seen this before.

I have firefox16.0 and would like to update to the most recent version (19). But my Firefox won't update

Hi there
I've got windows vista on my computer, and am using Firefox 16.0. Have been for a while now, ever since it was installed a year ago or so.
The thing is, Firefox won't update to the latest version (currently version 19 I believe), neither automatically or manually. I've tried everything, including using the "help" function. The window only says it's Firefox 16.0, but when I click on "update", the page just refresh and that's it, nothing else happens. I've checked all other settings, and it looks like all the right boxes are ticked, including "update Firefox automatically".
Coming to think about it, on my wife's computer, we are always told about new updates for Firefox. On this one, no update alert of any sorts since it was installed a while ago (and again, all the right boxes being ticked)
Please can anybody help? Should i reinstall Firefox altogether?
Thanks for your help
Frankie

ITunes 10.6.3 won't update. If I manually download iTunes, will I have to upload my songs again?

My iTunes won't update after it checks for one. It says one is available then accesses the iTunes store and then nothing happens. If I manually download iTunes will I have to upload my music again?

No. Back the music up anyway.
