How do I use the Terminal to run the 10.6.8 update?

After my iMac crashed during the 10.6.8 update install, the Finder won't launch (tried via the Dock and "Force Quit" command). I've used a Terminal window to get to the folder (ChangeDirectory) with a downloaded copy of the 10.6.8 update but I don't know how to launch the Installer program to try to re-install the update (Software Update won't help here because the Mac is updated enough to claim to be running 10.6.8 so it doesn't think there is anything to update).
TIA.

now able to create logical drive but installation again failed, here is the console log:

If you don't have iTunes installed on your laptop then you can download and install it from here : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
You can then log into your account on it via the Store > Sign In menu option (on iTunes 11 on a PC you can get the menus to show via control-B) :
And you can then select the Store on the left-hand sidebar (you can enable the sidebar via control-S), and then browse items in the store and buy them by clickin on their price.

Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

How can I use 3 buttons to control the transitions of my case structure?

Hi everyone,
Hopefully this will be an easy fix... Although I cannot seem to work it out??
I am building a state machine inside a while-loop with the following states:
1. System idle.
2. Self-cal pci card.
3. Run DAQ and do my processing.
4. Stop the vi.
I can do this using a enum no problems (with state 1. System idle as the initialising state for the while-loop)... But I really want to have is 4 buttons on the front panel, one for each of the 4 states, so that all the user needs to do is press the button corresponding to the state they want and the appropriate transition ocurrs... For example, when the vi first runs, the idle state is operating... When the user is ready can then hit button 2 for a self-cal... Is self-cal is ok, they hit button 3 for DAQ... Once the DAQ is finished the user can hit button 4 to stop the vi..
My problem is that I need the current button to unlatch when another button is hit...
Any suggestions?... This is killing me!
Thanks,
Jack
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Here's what I had in mind. You can easily add conditions so code only executes once after a control change, for example.

You cannot use that card. iTunes gift cards are only valid in the country of original purchase.

No idea if Windows will do it, but you can run Windows without Bootcamp & have OSX available at the same time, which should give you all the Monitors that OSX uses.

my database in another server when the connection true it connect
but if not does not work
i wanna make offline database if the server not connected it connect offline then the server is on it alter all data from the offline to the server.

User, please tell us your Jdev version!
There is no such functionality build into the framework. The offline data base is only for designing the db, not to have a backup db.
If you can't connect to the db the application will not work.

Only the carrier an iPhone was sold as carrier locked with can officially unlock the iPhone. It is my understanding that Softbank in Japan does not unlock iPhones.
