How to find out most recent installed software update

We recently installed the latest software updates on our intel xserve running 10.5 via the automatic software updates. The guy who installed them does not remember which updates where installed. Upon reboot we sit and sit at the gray screen with apple and spinning gear.
I can boot into single user mode, and my question is how can I find out what updates where installed recently.
Is there a location I can navigate to and just list the updates with there modified date, or is there any softwareupdate command that might list what updates have been installed.
I know this wont fix the issue, but I would like to know if anyone has an idea how I can at least determine what updates were installed.
Thanks..

Use the following:
ls -l /Library/Receipts/

  • I am trying to down load the most recent iphone4 software update

    I am trying to down load the most recent iphone4 software update and it will "time out".  Have never had this problem before.  Have tried tuning off virus protection ect...still times out right at the end...any help would be great...cheers.

    It's still likely a security issue, i.e. maybe your firewall.  See this... http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

  • IPhoto won't open after most recent system software update

    I have just installed the most recent system software update for iPhoto and now iPhoto will not open. I get an error message - see attached screen shot - and I have tried cmd + alt to get the option to rebuild which just re-opens the error report again. Really need help as can't afford to lose all my photo's!

    Some people have fixed that by redownloading the 10.7.4 update and rerunning it.
    Others have reinstalled the OS

  • How to get the Most RECENTLY installed JRE path and version ?

    Hello Experts,
    I am working on Installshield, and for some purpose, I need to get the MOST RECENTLY installed JRE version and Path. Now I have two choices :
    1. Go into the directory " C:\Program Files\Java\" and get the most recently changed directory, ( that will be the installation directory of the most recently installed JRE ). And then search in the registry under : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/JavaSoft/Java Runtime Environment/ and look for the version which is having
    the value of the key INSTALLDIR as the above found Installation Directory.
    But in this approach, I'll never find the Installation dir or version, if the JRE is installed somewhere else than the default location.
    2. Now this is the reverse. I first search in the registry, and get the Installation Directories of all the versions installed in the system, and then look at the file attributes ( may be by using some batch file ) and see which one is most recently installed.
    My question is, is there any other way, by which I can get the most recently installed JRE's installation Path and version? Or can we trace it during the installation itself ? I mean when we install the JRE, it creates some log files in %TEMP% directory. Is it possible to trace the version and installation directory of the most recently installed JRE from the log file ?
    Thanks
    Gagan

    Rendering times are pretty much based on processor speed if I have that right. Not much you can do about that other than buy a new computer. Your day to day work in the finder and accessing of files would be faster with your boot drive internal. One thing you can do is ensure your FCP System Settings are on the fastest disk you have. If you put a pair of drives internal and made a RAID volume for them you would improve your write speed when capturing and for any other read/write operations. You would have to be sure you kept that backed up properly because you double the odds of a failure when two drives spread the data between them. There are many RAID options.
    You could also bump up the RAM but you'd have to look at your processes to see if you are being limited by RAM. I'm guessing not but it's not impossible. If you are accessing scratch disks due to RAM limitations that would be one thing you could do.
    I would never bother connecting an external via USB if there was an esata or firewire option. I use an esata card internally to give me access to estata storage. I also keep an external FW800 drive for a mirror backup of my boot drive. All my data and booting is internal with all my backups external. Each internal has an external and I have additional externals that I keep off site to protect against fire and theft.

    Hi
    Ok, that's another problem....
    The class named Name cannot be found. Since you use "-cp .", could you confirm that the file Name.class is in the current directory?
    If it's the case, the only problem I can think of is that you specified a package in your class... It is the case?

    Well the term "hotlined" I have never heard before. In any case many states (like NY) just passed regulatory powers to the State Public Service Commission of which it may be called something different in your state. You could file a complaint with them. Or file a complaint with your state attorney generals office, they also take on wireless providers.
    The problem here is the staff you speak to are poorly trained, in days gone by it took one call to them and they pulled up your account and see the error and had the authority to remove any errors. They did not remove legitimate account actions, but used their heads instead of putting a customer off or worse lying to the customer.
    Its a shame you have to go through what you going through.
    Good Luck

    How to Find out DART Version installed in the system ?
    Rgds

    Hello everyone,
    we're currently running DART version 2.5 on R/3-release 5 with patchlevel 17.
    Now I'm wondering if it makes sense to upgrade DART from version 2.5 to version 2.6 even though the 2.6-version is not included in R/3-release 5 until patchlevel 20.
    Kind regards

    you can get the Minipack version of the products by querying fnd_product_installations or ad_patchdriver_minipks, for family packs you need to query through Metalink, OR if you have u driver file which resides on $AY_TOP/discoverer, looks for the minipacks/familypack version in the driver file.

  • How to find out if installed maxdb is 64 or 32 bit

    is there any command or ways to find out if the installed maxdb is 64 or 32 bit ?

    > is there any command or ways to find out if the installed maxdb is 64 or 32 bit ?
    >  I cant seem to find this information
    Hi there.
    You can figure this out at different places.
    The easiest one is usually to have a look into the KNLDIAG/KNLMSG file, since the platform and processor architecture is written into this file during  startup. So you can find it rather at the beginning of the file.
    Then you can (at least with MaxDB >= 7.5) use the registry of installed software:
    sdbregview -l
    will print out a list of all the installed MaxDB components including the Bit-range.
    I guess these two should do for starters.
    regards,
    Lars
