How can I cancel a stalled upgrade?

When I shut down OS 10.9.2, I get a window that asks do i want to continue or abort the upgrade.  It gives no clue about what is getting upgraded.
When I choose "continue", I get a very short (in time) view that a file is missing.  It shows me the file, but it shows it very quickly and I don't have the time to write it down.  Now I am beginning to wonder if I have some sort of malware in there.  Is there a way to just permanently cancel this so-called upgrade?
THanks,
Jim

  • How can I cancel the icloud upgrade i purchased today?

    How can I cancel an icloud upgrade I purchased today and prevent Apple renewing the upgrade next year?

    This is the link for iCloud Support:
    https://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    However they do say - in a comment added only recently -
    'iCloud support is free during your Apple hardware product's complimentary support period or with an AppleCare Protection Plan. Depending on your hardware product's coverage, you may need to pay for support. iCloud support is currently available by phone.'
    The implication is that if you aren't in the AppleCare window you can't get any support - which seems unreasonable if there is a payment issue. You can only try the contact method and see if you can get help - get your hardware number from 'About this Mac' before you start.

  • How can I cancel a stalled podcast download within the iPad?

    When downloading a podcast from iTunes to the iPad the download stalled. Now when I go to the iTunes store I have a notification icon on the download button indicating that there is a download waiting. However, the podcast is no longer available and I get an error when I try to download it. How do I cancel the download and clear the notification?

    Try this.
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.
     Cheers, Tom

  • I have just upgraded to 10.6.7, and was browing the App. Store, I selected a product and it started to download, I cancelled the download, but it still registers in my purchases list, have I purchased that appl. and how can I cancel the purchase?

    I have just upgraded to 10.6.7, and was browing the App. Store, I selected a product by mistake and it started to download, I cancelled the download, but it still registers in my purchases list, have I purchased that appl.? and how can I cancel the purchase in my purchases list?

    I think that as soon as you click "Buy" and type in your details, the iTunes server is alerted that you have bought the item, even if it hasn't downloaded. Your "purchased" list is based on your account and not your computer so I'm afraid even if you haven't completed the download, you will be charged for it (but if you do now download it, you won't be charged again). This also means that you can't remove items from the purchased list.
    Glad to be of help (I hope),

  • How can I cancel a newspaper app? I have deleted the app from my iPad and itunes

    How can I cancel paying weekly for a newspaper app?

    You may end up having to delete the stalled apps in order to redownload them, but in the meantime.....
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    Try a reboot as well - hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider.
    And .. You can finish the downloads in iTunes on your computer and then sync them to the iPad.

  • How can i cancel the download of ISO 8

    how can i cancel the download of ISO 8

    If you're downloading directly on your device, you can't cancel it. In fact, all iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad devices will automatically download iOS updates (when new one is available) when your device is charging and connected to the internet. If you don't want to upgrade, do not install it.

  • TS4009 I seem to have 2 iCloud accounts with different names - a free storage that came with my Macbook and one I used when I bought some iCloud space. How can I cancel the free account?

    I seem to have 2 iCloud accounts with different names - a free storage that came with my MacBook and one I used when I bought some iCloud space. How can I cancel the free account? Because of this I can't access iMatch and the ICloud account I paid for on my MacBook
    Any ideas cos its frustrating that I can't access something I paid for!

    Sign out of the account you do not wish to use, sign into the one that you do wish to use.

    De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.
    For more information on authorization and de-authorization: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.

  • How can i cancel my itunes account

    how can i cancel my itunes account and how can i make purchases using gift cards and not credit or debit cards?  it uses a credit card that i do not wish to use anymore.  i want to use only gift cards to make itunes purchases

    Click "Account" under Quick Links at the top right of the iTunes store. Next to payment information click "Edit" and then select "None" under payment method.
    On an iOS device go to Settings>Store>Apple ID>View Apple ID>Payment Information>None.
    If "None" is not an option, you may want to contact iTunes support:

  • How can i cancel my icloud account ?, been slugged $25 and never used

    How can i cancel my unused /un -required icloud account ?, just been slugged a service fee of $25

    You mean you never created an iCloud account in the first place? How were you 'slugged'? - was this in the form of an email? Does it look genuine? You could copy and paste its contents here for examination but remove any personal data such as your email address.

  • How can I cancel my iCloud account???

    How can I cancel my iCloud account???

    The iCloud account is your account ? If it's somebody else's account then you will need to contact that person and ask them to remove the phone from their account.
    If it is your account then see if you can get the password reset via http://appleid.apple.com
    If you can't then try contacting Support in your country and see if they get you access to it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
