How to properly install updates with kernel changes on MBP w/ SSD

I downloaded and installed Yosemite security update 2015 003, and on reboot it would have a progress bar of the updating which would not complete and would show the prohibited sign (circle with a line through it).
I tried the following:
I held the power button to shut it down and perform a hard restart, the problem would not go away.
Tried clearing the PRAM, but since it was in the middle of the update reboot, it was busy and would not properly clear the PRAM. No chimes.
I tried holding option to select the boot drive manually, but that did not work either. I could not even get to the boot drive selection screen. Just the continued seeing prohibited sign.
I was able to plug in my external hard drive and boot from that after multiple tries to use Disk Utility to restore my backup partition onto the internal SSD. Luckily, I frequently backup, so I didn't lose any data by being forced to wipe my SSD and restore my backup.
This is on a 13" MBP 7,1 (Mid 2010) with an aftermarket Intel SSD and 8GB of aftermarket RAM. Had TRIM enabler installed and on when downloading and installing the update. Is that the cause? After researching this and coming up with no solution, I discovered this security update seems to change the kernel. Is this kernel change conflicting with TRIM enabler? What causes this hanging problem when attempting to update? I have done multiple "Computer must restart to install changes" updates on this SSD in the past without this problem happening.

I don't know enough to explain it. I've read that you need to disable TRIM before upgrading to Yosemite. And disable it before doing updates. Updating may not always cause problems, but you never know till it happens. Enabling TRIM disables Apple's security measures built in and this may be why a Security Update affected it.
Here is one article on TRIM with Yosemite:

WSUS throwing 13002, "Client computers are installing updates with a higher than 25 percent failure rate. This is not normal."

Hello,
Within the past two months our WSUS Server started throwing error 13002, "Client computers are installing updates with a higher than 25 percent failure rate. This is not normal." We currently have 252 computers with errors in WSUS,
and 33 updates with errors. We have never had issues up until two months ago. If you keep rebooting the machine, and keep running updates, they eventually all install. I believe I will see the machines with errors go away as the weekly scheduled
WSUS install runs over and over, and the machines reboot.
- We run IE8 in our environment and sometimes IE9.
- We have 300 clients, all running Windows 7 SP1 x64.
- Our WSUS server is running on Server 2008 R2. The WSUS build number is 3.2.7600.262.
- We created an alternate WSUS 4.0 server on Server 2012, and redownloaded all updates. We put one client on it and it is showing errors on 3 updates, KB890830, KB931125, and KB2917500.
- Clients are throwing errors 800F0902, 80242016, and 80070005.
- I've noticed something with the C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download folder on the clients. When an update runs and fails, there is a "Install" folder created inside this folder. If you try to open it after the failure you get
"Access Denied" If you reboot the machine, the install folder goes away. (I assume this is a temp folder created to run updates). I've checked the permissions on this folder on various machines and all seems normal. I think
this is the root of the problem, and why we need to keep rebooting to get all of the updates to run.
- I tried deleting the Software Distribution folder on a client after stopping the update service, then restarting the update service. The folder redownloads but the client still throws errors.
- I've gone through our Group Policies looking for anything that can cause this and found nothing. We've created a test OU blocking inheritance, and only applying a WSUS policy in it to make it get the updates internally. I then rebuilt multiple
machines using Dell KACE, and still had failures.
- We run SEP 11 and 12 on our clients. I've tried removing the AV, making sure the firewall was off, etc. It still throws errors.
- I've spoken with our network team, and installed wireshark on a few clients looking for network errors and found nothing.
- I've tried various Dell KACE scripted installs on test machines (erasing and rebuilding the machines from scratch), after which I run Windows Updates from WSUS. They have thrown errors.
- I've rebuilt a machine using Dell KACE, undomained it, then ran updates externally from WSUS going to Microsoft's site, and I'm still getting errors.
- I've tried removing all software from the Dell KACE build to where it is just installing the OS and I'm still getting errors.
- I tried taking a plain Windows 7 x64 DVD and installing that on a test machine, then without domaining it and without installing any other software, running updates from Microsofts update site. This seems to work, althrough it does throw some errors
but I believe those are related to having to reboot your machine in order to complete the updates (I can't remember that error code at the moment).
Has anyone else been experiencing this? Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

Hi,
Error 800f0902
Please try the method in this thread:
Error
Code: 800f0902
Error 80242016
If you receive Windows Update error 80242016 while checking for updates, it might be caused by a connection interruption between your computer and the Windows Update servers.
80070005
Usually means access denied
Since it worked perfectly for a while, did you make any change on the server? Any applications new installed on clients?

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 do I install itunes with Windows 7?

how do I install itunes with Windows 7? I always get a Windows Installer error or administrator error __

Have tried: download but do not install iTunes, then turn off virus protection and firewall, restart computer, login as admin, then run the iTunes insallation. After it installs, restart virus protection and firewall and logout and back in as standard user.
Windows leaves installers running or still resident which conflict with the iTunes installer.

Where can I download Color Finesse and how I can install them with Premier Pro or After Affect ?

I recently purchased master collection 5 DVD version. On DVD box I have three serial numbers: Master collection, Ppro/AE CS4 32 Bit and Color Finesse. I used Master collection serial to activate my product. I am having 64 bit os, so I did not use Ppro/AE CS4 32 Bit serial. My question is about Color Finesse Serial. I searched about it and found it as an Plug-in for Premiere Pro or After Affect. Now where can I download Color Finesse and how I can install them with Premier Pro or After Affect?

This serial is only required for the CS4 version. The CS5 version does not require an extra serial. Both versions are installed automatically with the main programs. Nothing more to do.

Good morning Carol-Ann,
* Pick table operator for table TIME_ZONE_BY_STATE_TYPE twice, once as source and once as target.
* Pick an expression operator.
* Drag STATE_CODE as input to expression
* Create output column TIME_ZONE in outgroup
* With the attribute properties of this output, choose Expression
* Enter here a case statement 'translating' all state_codes to time_zones, e.g. CASE
WHEN INGRP1.STATE_CODE IN ('AE', 'AP', 'AA', 'MP', 'GU', 'PW', 'FM', 'MH')
THEN 'X'
WHEN INGRP1.IN ('CT', 'DC', 'DE', 'GA', 'MA', 'MD', 'ME', 'MI', 'NC', 'NH', 'NJ', 'NY', 'OH', 'PA', 'PR', 'SC', 'VA', 'VI', 'VT', 'WV')
THEN 'E'
etc.
END* Map this output column to TIME_ZONE column of target
* Set Loading Type of target to Update, choose No Constraints.
Hope this helps.
Regards, Patrick

Windows Update in Endless Loop of 'Installing updates" and "Undoing changes" on New Windows 8.1 Pro Install

I am setting new Windows 8.1 Pro computers, and am installing Windows 8.1 Pro to bare drives. Everything goes fine until Windows Update starts installing updates, and then the computer goes for hours installing updates, and then "We
could not complete the updates Undoing changes". It's an endless loop. It seems to be the same 38 updates. This is a recent phenomenon. I have not run into this until the last week or two on several new computer installs.
Again these are brand new installs, so something is clearly wrong with the Windows updates.
If anyone can please tell me how to avoid this, it would be much appreciated.
Michael

Hi Michael,
" This is a recent phenomenon"
Have you made any modifications to the machines ?
To resolve this issue ,running the built-in troubleshoot tool is a very good beginning .It will automatically diagnostic the windows update components and check the configurations for us .
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Troubleshooting\Fix problems with Windows Update
If there are antivirus software installed in these machines, please turn off them temporarily to have a check.
The command line included in the link as S.Sengupta posted is very useful and convenient to repair the windows corrupted files .We can have a try .
"sfc /scannow" ,"DISM.EXE /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth "
We also can check the windowsupdate.log for more information to troubleshoot this issue .
Run "windowsupdate.log"
If you have trouble in analyzing the log ,please upload them to the OneDrive and paste the link here .
Best regards

Auto-install updates, with no user interaction?

Due to problems with malware, we can't really trust everyone to be logged on with administrator privileges all the time as it used to be with Windows 2000 and XP. Consequently the installed software can not be modified by staff anymore.
This doesn't affect Windows Updates since those can be configured to install automatically on a schedule without any user interaction or privilege elevation.
Java for Windows however does not detect when a logged in user does not have administrative rights, so it offers updates to everyone who logs on, including people who can not and will not ever be able to install the updates.
One "solution" is to turn off the update checking so that people aren't hassled by useless update notifications, but then this means Windows desktops will gradually fall further and further out of date, opening them up to attack by malware that exploits unpatched bugs in older Java versions.
The proper solution that I really want, is for Java to be capable of auto-update and self-install without any user interaction or privilege elevation at all. However so far I have not found a solution for this.
A hack may be possible using Windows group policy, the Windows Server task scheduler, and a java website screenscraper.
Nightly:
* Screenscrape Java.com for a newer client version
* If new one is found, download, put in global read-access share
* Using a database of machines known to be running Java, flag each candidate that's using an older version
* Wake-on-LAN the machines needing the update
* Schedule a remote install of the update with Administrative privileges
* If update successful, clear flag for that machine in central database
* shut down again for the night.
OR
Java programmers could implement an auto-install mechanism of their own, that can run by itself without user interaction at system startup, shutdown, or on a timed schedule set by the administrator through registry entries (and therefore configurable via group policy applied to desktops).
==========
How are other network administrators handling managed business desktops that need periodic, automatic, and non-interactive Java updates?

We use Altiris Software Delivery solution to deploy our Java updates but you could also use similar solutions such as Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager.
The problem is that these are both options that cost money and require investment and training.
Altiris allows you to create a collection based on the text string held in the Add/Remove Programs list (as well as other fields) - so you can easily create a collection of computers that do not have the required version of Java.
You can then create a software delivery task to silently install Java with admin rights and target it towards the collection that needs updating.
The collection updates dynamically. As the computers get Java they drop out of the collection and are no longer targetted for upgrade. This used to work well for me - as I could update about 500 machines in about 2-3 days.
The problem is that the Java installer doesn't work consistently as you mentioned since JRE 6u25 - the installer doesn't always behave as expected and the switches to do silent installs keep changing. You also have a problem if you try to update Java and the person has their web browser open... Yes, I do my updates during working hours as well.
In a constantly changing environment in terms of security - you'd think Oracle would have sorted the deployment options out by now?

How do I install ML with no internet connection

Here's my situation:
1. I work in government on a stand-alone Mac Pro. No internet connection.
2. I access the internet through a different computer (PC), which I'm not allowed to install software on.
Q. How do I install ML on my stand-alone Mac Pro?
What I used to do before all this cloud nonsense.
1. Purhase the OS through Apple.com with a credit card
2. Transfer the file to my stand alone
3. Install
From what I've gathered, my only option is to go to an Apple Store and purchase a copy there and they can put it on a USB for me? Is that seriously my only option?
Apple is quickly going to lose our business if this is what it takes to simply update an OS.

Chris, you didn't ask for this, but this is how you create a flash drive version of ML:
Download the Installer, but do not install. Note the installer is in the Applications folder and you will use it to build the installation on the Flash Drive.
You should have formatted the flash drive (8 GB if that is what you are using) Mac HFS Extended (Journaled) already.
1. In Disk Utility click the Restore tab near the top right.
2. Drag the volume for your external drive from the sidebar into the Destination field.
3. Switch to the Finder and find the installer app in the Applications folder
4. Control-click or right-click the installer app and choose Show Package Contents
5. Inside the package choose Contents/Shared Support
6 Select the file InstallESD.dmg and drag it into the Source field in the Disk Utility window.
7. Click Restore button near the bottom right of the window
8. In the confirmation dialog, click Erase
9. Authenticate as Local Admin - give password
10. Could take half an hour for this part
11. When complete, quit Disk Utility
12 Change the new disk or flash drive name with Finder to something descriptive like Mac Os X Install ESD
You can then use that Flash Drive Installer on multiple machines.

How do I eliminate worms and viruses?
iMac G5, Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

There are no known worms or viruses in the wild for OS X.
What is undoubtedly happening is that some windows user, who's machine is infected, has your email addy in their address book. Mass mailing worms will not only send to everyone in the infected accounts address book, but will use addresses from there to spoof the "from:" field in the sent emails.
There really is nothing you can do since it is not your machine that is the problem. It's some windows machine with your email in the address book, sending emails spoofed to appear as if they came from you.
