How do I install updates from another computer?

Got a macbook, and a windows.
How do I install updates for my macbook (software update.app updates) from my windows computer? Can i somehow download.. example, if i have snow leopard 10.6.1, can i then download an update on windows that updates my mac to 10.6.8?

Okay, cool. Is it always "Combo updater" or "Update Combined" that i should download?
I downloaded one of the 10.6.8 updates from apple.com, and it said that i needed 10.6.7 before i installed 10.6.8.
But I got paritioned HD's, one lion and one snow leopard, When lion 10.7.1 or 10.7.2 comes out, can I then download the updates on windows and transfer that update to mac and update just cool?
And how do i stay up-to-date with this?
And other software updates, such as fixes in the trackpad, and such random stuff (not itunes, mail, automator, etc updates, only Main OS updates..) How do i stay up to date with that?

How can I install Premiere in another computer

How can I install Premiere in another computer, if my main computer does not work. The service is paying monthly.

As far as I have understood it you can install PP on as many computers as you like, but only two can be active at the same time. So if you have installed it on just one computer you should have no problems installing it on a second one. If you want to install it on a third, you would have to deactivate one of the other previous installations to get it to run.

You'll want to enable Manually Manage Music and Videos. Once you do that you'll be able to drag and drop the music from the computer to the iPod.

How to access Enterprise manager from another computer

Hi There,
I have Oracle 10g installed on a PC. I can access EM from that PC.
I would like to know how would I access EM Dbconsole from another computer under same LAN.
Thanks
Raf

Opening the web browser, you can specify the hostname and the port configured to listen the incoming call.
For example:
https://hostname:port_number/em
or
https://ip_address:port_number/em
you can get information about the information that you need from the "emctl"
emctl status dbconsole
Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Database Control Release 11.2.0.1.0
Copyright (c) 1996, 2009 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
https://hostname:1158/em/console/aboutApplication
Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g is not running.
Best regards !

How to view aperture library from another computer on network?

Hi,
I'd like to simply view (not edit) my aperture library from another computer on my home network. The aperture library resides on a mac pro, and I'd like to see the images on a macbook pro to show family members. On the surface, this seems like a simple concept - as Apple TV can do this with home sharing. Further, itunes can share it's library in this manner. Is this possible?
thank you,
T

You don't mention which OS you're using and I understand that Lion has changed some of the sharing features but what you are looking to do is doable.
Be warned that accessing an Aperture library over a network is slow and definitely not something you want to do if editing except in an emergency and you want to make triple sure that only one user is accessing the library at a time. But I regularly access libraries over wireless when I'm to lazy to walk across the house and need to check somthing out.
If you are using Snow Leopard go into System preferences->Sharing and tune on file sharing on the the Mac Pro. If you have the same user name on both systems you should have no problem accessing the library from the MBP.
If you're on Lion, you'l need to lok up how to enable file sharing. I haven't swithced so I can;r help you there.
good luck

How to access Time Machine from Another Computer?

My daughter's iBook went down and is in the shop for repair and we want to access her Time Machine back up from another computer. Does anyone know if there is any way to do that?

Time Machine won't do it as far as I can tell.
However, you can access the backups through Finder.
Warning - you *do not* want to do anything but copy out files - no deletes, moves, renames, no nuttin... Doing so will screw up the backups for any future Time Machine use!
If the backups are on an external disk, then just navigate to the folder Backups.backupdb/yourMachineName there you will find each backup by date/time with the contents of the system at that time.
If the backups are to a Time Capsule you need to mount the backups - the sparsebundle file - first then examine the folder Backups.backupdb/yourMachineName.
Time Machine does have a 'Browse Other Time Machine Disks' option, but as far a I can exercise it it only looks at other disks with backups for the same machine.
Again _only copy_ out files. Normally one should only use Time Machine, but here you can't - so be cautious.

How do I install Numbers on another computer if I have license key?

I bought a family copy of iWork '09. I've recently bought a laptop for my daughter. I can't see now how I can install iWorks on her laptop as everything now diverts me to the App store. However I didn't buy this copy via App store but directly through Apple. Does anyone know how I can install on her computer - I really don't fancy paying for the whole thing again.
Thanks

If you still have the disk or download file the you originally installed from, use that. If you have lost the media or the download, you may have to purchase anew.

Pavilion g7 1310us Install drivers from another computer

The laptop can see a wifi network and connect to it, but cannot connect to the internet through the wifi. I do not have a LAN cable to try and plug directly into the router. Other computers are using the network with no problems. I have tried rebooting the laptop, turning the wireless card on and off, disabling and reenabling the wireless driver, and running windows troubleshooter, with no success. I want to try to update the wireless driver but cannot download it to the computer because of the connection issue. Is there anything else I can try?

Did you install the HP listed driver for it? Is this install factory or a Fresh install? If factory the wifi should've been there already and working. Here's your driver page what wifi do you have??? http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Pavilion-g7-Notebook-PC-series/5145712/model/5179151#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30R1

How do I install Mac OS from another computer using firewire?

My iMac has a bad CD drive but I was told that there is a way to install Leopard from another computer using a firewire connection between the two. I put the install CD in the other computer and rebooted it using "T" (and I see the floating firewire symbol as expected). But I don't see the install disk on the iMac. What's up?

you can try another way:
connect a firewire drive to the good Mac. Partition the drive and make the second partition as small as you can but at least 8 gigs. Mount he Leopard DVD to desktop. Launch Disk Utility and select that external drive and the restore tab. Drag the source , ie the MacOSX DVD to source window and that second small partition to the destination window. Select restore and enter your password. Wait 30 mins, restore is done. Quit all programs. Unmount that external drive. Connect to the "bad" Mac and restart it from that external drive to install Leopard OSX. You can if you want load most of your software on the first partition of the external and install your software unless of course you did a Time Machine to make it far simpler.

What version of Premiere Elements is involved? And, what computer operating system?
Strictly from the point of view of removing a version no longer wanted on a computer, Deactivate and then Uninstall which are not the same
a. In an opened project, Help Menu/Deactivate or Help Menu/Sign Out (depends on version)
b. Then uninstalling from the computer the usual Control Panel way (assumes Windows).
Please also refer to
Transfer an Adobe product license
Adobe allows you to use the same purchased activation serial number for a given Premiere Elements version on no more than two of your computers.
And, written here by others, not both at the same time.

If I were to buy osx mountain lion from another computer, could I install it on a crashed macbook?

I crashed my system and cannot boot from disk or anyting else. I'm not illiterate with computers, but this is a thing I'm stumped on.
I get the install screen/disk utility/ etc screen. I cannot reinstall the software or repair it because it was not bought. I found it on a third-party site.
it says that "your computer did not purchase Lion" therefore I can't reinstall/or repair/or reboot.
mac is smart.
I want to know if I spend 20 on the new osx update on another computer with my apple id, could I install it on here.

Like you said, "mac is smart".
When the installer comes online and contacts Apple, sending your AppleID and the Mac's hostid, it knows you didn't purchase the cat for THAT specific Mac.
