How do you delete a software update?

After you download a software update, how do you delete it?

I don't believe you need more than 500Mb of free space if you perform the update through itunes. As all operations are done on the computer, and then the files are simply replaced with the newer versions.

You don't. As long as you don't install it it will be there. Once installation is complete, the system will delete it from the device.

Obviously it can't install if it hasn't Downloaded first. So if you still have the "Download and Install" option as opposed to the "Install Now" option it will first download and then install.

If you are using Itunes and choose to only Download, then it will simply download the update package and store it on your computer. When you are ready to install it you can then press the install button.

  • How do you automatically run software update using ARD?

    Is there a way to automate running software update and downloading all updates using ARD? My current option is to log into each machine and do it manually. (I am also using a OSX server 10.6 if that helps.)
    Thanks

    Use the the Send UNIX Command option. There's a template in the Miscellaneous section to have the workstations download and install updates; run it as the root user in the Send Command as field so you don't have to worry about a user being logged into each workstation. You can set the command as a task to run on a schedule if you wish.
    Since each workstation will download each update, it's most efficient if you can run a Software Update Server and point your workstations to that instead of directly to Apple. Then you don't have multiple downloads taking up your Internet bandwidth. If you have on a few workstations and/or a really big pipe to the Internet, that may not be a concern for you.
    Regards.

  • TA24326 How do you repair Apple Software Update in Windows 7?

    When I open iTunes it says a new version (10.6.3) is available, and I click on "download" but nothing happens.  I then go to Apple Software Update and no updates are found.

    After a month of waiting & having same problem as you, today when I turned on my computer an Apple Software Update appeared right on my desktop telling me to download the new update.  I did & it downloaded just fine.  I assume it should be coming to your computer soon also.
    Yeah ... it's a bit "patchy" though, Sassy. It can come right for some people and yet not for others ... and there's been a few reports in some of the bigger threads of it coming right for some folks and then going silly again (for the same folks).
    A good rule of thumb with this one is that if you do get a "window" where ASU seems to work fine, get as many updates done as you can (just in case the window closes again).

  • How do you uninstall a software update?

    Recently installed the new Xerox software update that was released on May 2, 2013.  Apparently this update does not work for some Xerox models and causes the user to no longer be able to print to Xerox.  Is there anyway to UNinstall a software update? 

    No. The only way to remove a software update is to restore the backup taken prior to the update.

  • HT4623 how do you do a software update for iphone 4s when it says the update requires 2.5 gb of available storage?

    how to update iphone 4s when it says needs 2.5 gb of available storage?

    Go to Settings>General>Usage and see how much space is available on your phone (listed at the very top).  The pop-up might be telling you that you don't have enough space on your phone to perform the backup, not that you don't have enough space in your iCloud acount to store the backup.

  • How do you download ios software update without itunes?

    The iTunes I use to update my iPod Touch is on a Windows 7 desktop computer. I tried to download the latest update but the internet is to slow to complete it. I was wondering if I could take my notebook and download the update on it while connected to a faster internet connection and transfer it to the iTunes on my Windows 7. Where can I download it and how can I put it on my other computer?

    You can download music on the iphone ONLY from the itunes store.
