Help Software won't update

Ok so I am working on iMac and the software is wayyyy out of date! It is 10.5.8. So I got the Mac OS X Snow Leopard and every time I install it it starts to work then 15 20 mins later he restarts the computer saying it will continue to work after restart. Well it never finishes the installing.
I don't know what to do from here.

I suspect the 10.6.8 install is corrupt, please re-install 10.6.8.

My ipad1 won't update and doesn'tshow to update software

Hello 3512931312,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have an iPad (1st generation) and would like to update the software on it. The latest supported iOS version available to the iPad (1st generation) is iOS 5.1.1. If your iOS version is lower than that and you would like to update, I would suggest attempting the update with your computer using the instructions located Update your device using iTunes section in the attached article.

Have a great day,

Aluminum Keyboard software won't update

Leopard notices that I need an "Aluminum Keyboard Firmware Update" 1.0
I click the box, then, install, and I get the following screens...
1) Updates were installed successfully.
2) Software Update is still Active... Quit Software Update and click continue.
Whatever I seam to do, the software does not update. Any suggestions would be VERY helpful!

I had the same problem. Actually, I did not know it had not updated properly until I ran the software update application again the next day and noticed that I still needed the Aluminum Keyboard Firmware Update. So, again, I selected install software. This time though I closed the software update installer application, as instructed. Then I pressed continue to install the update. The bar ran across my screen showing that the software was updating. It installed successfully.
After the install, I noticed immediately that I can now move my keyboard further away from my iMac. I love the smaller keyboard. It is perfect for working from my lap. I am glad Apple made a wireless keyboard without the 10-keypad for people like me who never use the 10-keypad anyway. Thanks Apple!

Software won't update

This may be operator error but I'm new to this. My blackberry pearl 8100 was operating on a VERY outdated version (like version 4.2.0.73 or something of that nature). I downloaded the desktop software version 4.6, plugged in my blackberry and went to the blackberry website and hit the update button. It went through the entire download, then at the very end told me the digital signature wasn't valid and stopped the download. It has done this 3 times!!! What am I doing wrong? Help!!!!

Hello,
You should follow this procedure and reload your OS.
Good luck!

OS X Server Software won't update to 2.2.1

Hey everybody,
since a few weeks we get a notification from the App Store on our Mac Mini Server, that there is an update available for the OS X Server (current version: 2.0.23).
The OS X Server software was purchased with the Mac Mini (which is a Mid 2011) and runs without any problems.
But as soon, as we want to update we get the message, that we don't have the "extended license" to update the software. Now that wouldn't be a big problem, if we would get the chance to actually BUY that extended license.
Now we tried most common things you try if something like that happens:
- restarted everthing
- tried different Apple-IDs
Do you guys have any clue, what we could try additionally to solve this "problem"?
Thanks up front!
Tim

I have an original day 1 phone. I am attempting to update to 2.1 and after downloading the software, when I connect to iTunes I first get an message "waiting for iPhone" and then after about 1 minute it gives me this message " The iPhone cannot be used with iTunes because the information required for activation could not be obtained from the iPhone." I have checked that the SIM is inserted correctly and it is not PIN - locked.
I have restarted the phone, computer and coffee pot.
Any help would be appreciated...phone in emergency only mode.

Help File Won't Update

I am having a problem in getting an updated help file to show up in the program execution. The help file is <program_help/index.html>, and shows up correctly in both the Resources and Products Groups in XCode. That is, after modifying only some text in the index.html file the modified index.html correctly appears in the XCode editor. The path to the index.html file is (correctly) unchanged in the Groups & Files list. The info.plist also remains unchanged.
After a clean/rebuild, the correct modified <program_help/index.html> is located in the Contents folder of <build/Release/program>. However, when program is launched, either within XCode or in the Finder, the Help file accessed via the Help menu has not been updated, i.e., the older unmodified version of the index.html file is displayed from within the program.
I am obviously missing something - any suggestions will be appreciated.

I agree that it is probably a cached file somewhere. I have not been able to find it, though. I have trashed the ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpui folder and any other files I've found that reference the program in ~/Library - but the wrong help file still keeps turning up.
I've even tried to explicitly modify the com.apple.helpui/TOCCache.plist entry for the program with the pathname to the correct help file, but as soon as I call the help file in the program the TOCCache.plist file entry reverts to the the old version of the help file in an earlier version of the program.
I doubt that any of these exercises should be necessary, though. There must be some setting in XCode that should take care of getting the correct reference for the help file. I've looked and can not find anything at this point.
One step I will eventually take is to remove all possible sources of the old help file and then see what happens.

I need help: iTunes won't update my 5G 60 GB Black iPod, can someone help?

My internet connection is working fine, I'm getting errors when trying to update my Black 5G 60 GB iPod which is formatted for Windows. I'm getting errors 1417 and I also got -50. Can anybody help me fix the problem so my iPod can play games? I really want to play games because I bought the iPod a little bit more than 3 months ago and I believe it should be able to play games because it's still new. Please Help

It sounds like you actually have a 2G iPod Touch, which can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1 and no later. See here to help you verify what generation your iPod Touch is.

As for the iPhone 3G, it can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1 as well.

Software won't update on old phone

Trying to use my old iphone as an i-touch but having trouble syncing the apps that I want because they require a newer software version. Each time I try to update the software, the phone freezes up. I am concerned about putting my current sim card in the phone and then updating the software...will it erase any of my current data? Is this what I need to do to make the software update so I can download the apps?

It takes Mac OS X 10.5, a newer version of the operating system, to use iTunes 10.

Adobe software won't update

Since getting a new computer I've never been able to run Adobe software updates. I just uninstalled and reinstalled in safe mode and am still getting the same error stating that the software (update) didn't download. What can I do to fix this?

Hi Kevin,
Im having a hard time getting a good answer but, Im upgraded from 5.5 to 6.0 and need to quickly add my custom mapkey setting from one to the other.
It was very frustrating to find out that from 5.0 to 5.5 that I had to recreate them all as a power editor and in Final Cut Pro we were able to export or find them very easily.
My biggest pet pee is that I have been told that I need to look for a .kys but, on my MacPro searching on SPOTLIGHT is doesnt exist anywhere.
I urgently need ADOBE to make this more evident because its is really a key root feature that needs to have some attention too.
Im a part of the Bay Area Professional Video Association in San Jose and this is a basic need to be able to export or find my custom mapkey file for PPRO5.5 for 6.0.

HELP itunes won't update ALL tracks

I imported tracks onto itunes & they were skipping so i re-imported & replaced the existing files. now the tracks in itunes are perfect, except i can not get them to upload onto my ipod as no matter what preferences i select it will only ever upload newly added tracks, not the replaced tracks. DRIVING ME MAD

Probably (and I emphasize "Probably") because your iPod sees the "replaced" tracks as already existing and, therefore, doesn't update them.
