How are u doing after Sec Update 2006-001 ?

Hey~
i'd like to know how u r doin with ur Mac after installing the Security update...
does this cause any 'unexpected' things....?
please post if u are having problems...

I have install the latest security update from Apple with Software update.
After the installation and the request to either shut down or restart, I pressed "restart" but the machine since then cannot restart.
Instead I get a screen with the message:
Illegal instruction at %SRR0: etc
Apple PowerBook5, 1 4.6.2f1 etc
Welcome to Open Firmware ...
"To continue booting, type 'mac-boot' and press return".
I did type that and press return, but again and again I am ending up with the same rotating restarting progress.
I did tried to reset the PRAM and NVRAM following the instructions from the Apple "support" website, but nothing.
I have restarted the machine from a different partition of the disc with a "clean OS" but nothing is working either.
I tried to restart from the original CD that came with the computer but again no more luck!
Always I am getting the same message.
But, if I was leaving the computer closed for 15-20 mins then It was working. But not any more..
Any ideas what to do?

  • Focus switch to finder after Security Update 2006-001

    Just updated with Security Update 2006-001 on PB G4 running 10.4.5.
    While running Safari or Mail or any App. and not using the app (like when reading a webpage or mail message) the focus of the OS switches to the Finder after about 10 seconds or so. So in the top menubar right from Apple icon the OS switches from Safari or Mail to Finder.
    Moving the mouse does not make any difference. i.e does not prevent or delay the switch.
    Clicking on the application window returns focus to that application (Safari or Mail).
    Anyone?

    thanks for the input. did not resolve the probelm though. finder started to crash every 2 minutes.
    but on the bright side: its a user thing. my guest account was not affected.
    so i trashed most of my prefs. that resolved the finder problem.
    currently working on restoring my prefs & email accounts, oh well

  • Menu Bar Icons Disappeared and other issues after Security Update 2006-001

    Hi,
    I was really affraid when i've heard about the Safari vulnerability, so I was really happy to see the Security Update 2006-001.
    But after installing it, I'm having regrets:
    * mouse speed turned to default settings
    * system preferences crashes when i try to access to Mouse & Keyboard
    * all the menu bar icons disappeared: Bluetooth, Airport, Time, EVEN Spotlight
    * Finder is slower...
    I've repaired disk permissions but: nothing happens....
    What should I do please?
    Should I wait?

    How did you fix it? I'm having the same problem
    myself.
    Mandy,
    I'm gonna tell you a secret, just like i said my problem wasn't due to the Security Update but because of Front Row.
    How? Because, I've hacked my iMac (without iSight) to install FrontRow (with an update), and i've installed the Security Update at the same time. Restarted my computer, and thought the problem was due to the Security Update.
    If you did the same thing, here's the trick to remove Front Row:
    Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
    Install/reinstall the the latest Mac OS X Update Combo.
    This article assumes you haven’t tried installing Front Row before without the use of Enabler. If you have used one of the very early versions of Front Row (ones installed without Enabler):
    Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
    Delete the preference file (/System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.frontrow.plist)
    Remove any Login Items that launch Front Row (System Preferences >Accounts >User >Login Items)
    Disable any shortcuts managed by third-party applications that launched Front Row.
    Reboot and reinstall.

  • Cannot start after Security Update 2006-001

    I've just installed the security update and my iBook G4 fail to start now. I've been waiting for more than an hour, and it seems to be stuck with the following messages:
    - The following StartupItems failed to properly start:
    - /System/Library/StartupItems/PrintingServices
    - - execution of Startup script failed
    Can anyone please help me?

    I had a similar problem. I repaired permisions both before and after the update. In my case the I couldn't adjust the volume or display through the keyboard. I couldn't restart, shutdown or logout. I used the power button to shutdown, ran applejack. No effect. Same thing.
    I reset the open firmware settings and everything seems to be okay.

  • Apps open in Script Editor after Security Update 2006-001 Mac OS X 10.4.5

    Several applications, notably "MathGo 2.2", no longer open when double clicked. Instead they open in a Script Editor window (after informing me they are not scriptable).
    It is as if Finder no longer recognizes them as applications! "Get Info" shows them as still being apps however.
    I can work around this by using AppleScript to launch them: "tell application "HD:Applications:MathGo 2.2:MathGo 2.2" to activate" but that's kind of a pain.
    Anyone else having problems like this? I'm certain it is tied to security update because I have an another start-up drive without the latest security update. These apps still run correctly when double clicked on that system.

    The Finder gets easily confused, who knows why, by applications whose name ends in a "." and something other than the extension "app"--it manages to get confused even without the latest Security update. There are those who have one account where "GreatApp 2.1" launches without a hitch, and another account where it doesn't. The easiest thing to do is do GetInfo on the application, and rename it to "GreatApp21.app"--it should then work fine.

  • After Update 2006-001 no file or printer sharing?

    After installing Security Update 2006-001 Mac OS X 10.4.5 & iTunes 6.0.4, I'm having an issue. iTunes is shared over my network but I'm not showing anything in Finder>Network.
    Most importantly, file and printer sharing are not working. My G5 doesn't recognize my PB and vice versa. Sharing preferences are intact. I'm not having other problems listed in discussions...

    After installing the 2006-001 security update and re-booting, I have the exact same issue. My colleagues at work can no longer see me on the network, and I can no longer print on the network printer, nor can I even turn on personal file sharing! What more?... my iSync conduit doesn't work.
    My internet connection is fine.
    Any help would be appreciated!

  • After applying Security Update 2006-001 can't launch Office X apps

    I noticed that, after applying Security Update 2006-001, I can't launch Microsoft Word nor Excel nor Power Point (Office X, 10.1.6 updated). If I double click the app icon, select and try to open from File menu or try to launch it from the Dock, I get the message "The app has unexpectedly quit". This does not affect Entourage so far. I can open existing files double clicking on their icons and, once the app is running, create new files from menu bar. Repaired permissions, checked for corrupted preferences files or templates but to no avail.
    Can anybody help?
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   512 MB RAM

    DivX Doctor is a freeware I had downloaded a few days before applying Security Update 2006-01 (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/4683). It certainly was responsible for my problems with Office X apps because, as I said, they completely disappeared as soon as I got rid of it.
    I hadn't the memory problems you mentioned (I've applied also Security update 2006-02 without problems).
    Don't know if this can help, but you might want to give a try to Disk inventory X (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/14393) [quote]Disk Inventory X is a disk usage utility for Mac OS X. It shows the sizes of files and folders in a special graphical way called "treemaps".

  • Rosetta crashes after Security Update 2006-003

    The other day I installed Security Update 2006-003, and now a number of PowerPC applications crash the machine.
    It's a funny crash, the mouse keeps moving and the capslock key goes on and off, but that's it. Nothing on the screen animates or updates. Windows will not move, dock does not do anything. cannot force quit or command-tab. The only option is to do a hard reset or hard shutdown.
    I found this article:
    http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060517111924138&query=rosetta+crash
    I hope it's fixed soon!
    Matt

    Hello!
    I'm glad I found your post -- a brand new Intel Core Duo 20" iMac is doing the same for me after Security Update 2006-003.
    What I've found on this end so far is that Norton AntiVirus 10 for Macintosh seems to aggravate the problem. I had a system that was running fine (complete with NAV10) before applying the 2006-003 update. At first I thought the problem might be due to user error--maybe NAV wasn't quite ready for Intel Macs, but Symantec says it is after you get version 10.1 from LiveUpdate. (I did.)
    I finally had to erase the hard drive and reinstall the entire operating system from the provided restore discs. After I did that and got the latest software updates, I tried again with NAV. It still caused the same problem...a complete lockup.
    The first time around, only NAV seemed to cause problems. Other PowerPC-native programs running in Rosetta seemed to be OK. This second time around any PowerPC-native app running in Rosetta (after the install of NAV10) would lock the machine up completely, except for the mouse pointer. (I have also noticed that the machine still responds to being pinged over the network, and that Apple Remote Desktop 3 says it is online. So the crash isn't stopping everything from working.)
    So my conclusion is that there is something seriously wrong with Security Update 2006-003 and Rosetta, and it may be made worse by NAV10 for Macintosh. In any case, I'm going to steer clear of this update for now.

  • Security Update 2006-001 Killed network preferences

    After upgrading with the 2006-001 Security Update, none of my network preferences will set up correctly anymore. DHCP doesn't seem to be doing anything, and when I tell it to use a manual address via the system preferences, it appears that it's not actually doing anything. Mac OS System Preferences will not even detect that I have an ethernet cable plugged in, though if I use ifconfig and route I can get a LITTLE bit of traffic to go out, so I know it's connected and working.
    Any one have any ideas on this? Absolutely frustrating because I can no longer work until this is fixed (sitting in an internet cafe trying to figure out what the problem is). I'm running 10.3.9 on a 1.2Ghz 12" Powerbook. I don't remember my Unix days well enough to try to manually set up routes and our DNS settings, nor do I know if the appropriate tools are in Mac OS, but the Apple network preferences are clearly busted.
    Is there anyway to uninstall an update?

    12" 1.2 Ghz PB   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I had the same Network & Airport issue after installing Security Update 2006-001 on my wife's iBook G3 running 10.3.9 Trying to access our Airport base station wirelessly would inevitably hang as I selected the Airport network.
    I noticed that every time I shut down the computer there was a brief showing of the keychain window asking to allow keychain access...this right as the computer went down (no chance to hit the allow button).
    Spent the better part of an entire afternoon trying to fix this problem. Then read all the posts here (amazing how many people have problems with this update). Tried to reset permissions - didn't work. In the end, I rebooted the Airport...went into the Airport Admin Utility with my PowerBook to fiddle around...removed our Airport network from the keychain in my wife's iBook...explored other aspects via the keychain access utility.
    None of that seemed to work. I also figure I reset the permissions about half a dozen times (with subsequent reboot). None of that was working either...until after one permissions reset & reboot things came good. I got the keychain window, allowed access, and hey presto...online. So far it's been OK for over 12 hours (including after reboot).
    What exactly worked? I don't know. "It's a mystery".
    One thing's for sure...this update is not going on any of my other machines!
    Come on Apple...surely you can do better than send us automatic updates that break our computers and sap our time!

  • Security Update 2006-001 causes huge loss of memory

    After running Security Update 2006-001 and updating Garageband, iPhoto and iTunes, per Software Update, my available GB of memory was reduced from approximately 110 to about 35! Yikes! What could have caused this, and how can I fix it?

    Don't confuse memory & hard drive space. Running applications uses memory; storing files (application or document) use hard drive space. If you run memory-hungry apps, you may need to increase the RAM in your Mac to avoid slowdowns due to your Mac swapping data in memory (RAM) out to the hard drive. If you don't have adequate hard drive space to spare for this (usually 5 GB minimum, or 10% or more of your hard drive's free space), you may get crashes or other problems.
    In any case, deleting files (from the hard drive) won't change the amount of memory (RAM) your Mac uses. That is controlled by the OS, in response to the demand of the application(s) you run. OS X has very good memory management; generally, all you will see is slowdowns if the demand is greater than the installed RAM can handle.
    Are you seeing any problems, or are you just concerned that memory use is higher than you expect?

  • Did Security Update 2006-001 kill SpamAssassin 3.1.0?

    Has anyone else seen this? I note from the release notes:
    perl
    CVE-ID: CVE-2005-4217
    Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9, Mac OS X Server v10.3.9
    Impact: Perl programs may fail to drop privileges
    Description: When a perl program running as root attempts to switch to another user ID, the operation may fail without notification to the program. This may cause a program to continue to run with root privileges, assuming they have been dropped. This can cause security issues in third-party tools. This update addresses the issue by preventing such applications from continuing if the operation fails. This issue does not affect Mac OS X v10.4 or later systems. Credit to Jason Self for reporting this issue.
    Any advice would be most appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Damon
    PowerMac G4-867   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    The update prevents spamd to run as the default user "nobody". Running it as root seems to be the only workaround.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Yes the same happened to me until my regular suggestion of repairing permissions solved it. Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility is where you select the hard disk and from First Aid repair permissions. For more upgrading tips, see this article which I wrote:
