How to stop the GarageBand software update reminder

I do not use GarageBand and I do not have much concern about the disk space. However, I felt annoyed the GarageBand software update always pops up. How can this be stopped?

One way to deal with this is... System Preferences>Software Update... and uncheck the 'Check for Updates' box. You will have to check manually but that should stop the schedualed pop ups.
Hope that helps.

How to redirect the clients software updates to the same server but different IP?

Hello Everyone,
Well our Mac expert left the company and I got promoted to take his place. I only have about 7 months experience in the Mac world and I have about 90 Macs in the company. Anyways, our company moved into a new building and the Mac server was moved which I am sure the IP address changed. The server is up and running now, but the clients cannot see it and are not allowed update their software. I didn't change any paths or settings to the server, so I am guessing it has to do with something of some IP changes. The Network team set the static IP address up for it so I could connect to it with Remote Desktop just fine. Any suggestions to a Mac rookie?
Thanks

If your clients can't find the software update server (SUS), then either the server changed DNS names and thus your CatalogURL setting is wrong, or the server was moved to a new address and your DNS services were not updated (or the DNS updates haven't propagated through all the caches quite yet).
To see the current DNS setting for the server your.software.update.server.example.com (and replace that intentionally-bogus DNS name with the DNS name for your software updare server), launch Terminal.app (Applications > Utilities) and issue the command:
dig +short your.software.update.server.example.com
and see if you get the IP address that you expect, or the old IP address, or some other address.
Software Update CatalogURL
The usual way an OS X client configures the local (target) software update server is via a plist setting:
$ sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL http://your.software.update.server.example.com:8088/index.sucatalog
To view the current CatalogURL setting from the plist:
$ sudo defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL
Details of the catalog URL setting needed varies by the version of the OS X Server; the above is for fairly recent servers. Google or Bing or DDG for the string:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL
for details on this, or check the Apple doc (see below) for details.
Background / Resources / More
Take the time to download and skim through the 10.6 Apple OS X Server 10.6 manuals (search for Mac OS X Server 10.6 to narrow what's posted); there's a lot of good information in those Apple documents, particularly given that the documentation for the more recent releases of OS X Server have gotten rather thinner. You'll find additional details of setting up software update services in those 10.6 documents; in the system imaging and software updates manual.
Also see the archives of the Mac Enterprise mailing list for related information and discussions, as well as details on tools such as Reposado.

How to uninstall the installed software updates

i have installed the update without reading what is it , and now all my compyuter is in hebrew the update called "Mac OS X Update Combined"
thanks!

Hi
It's not the OS X update that is the problem, although it did enable Hebrew as a system language. Here are the instructions to get English (I'm assuming that's your preference?) back as the system language. You may need to follow visually as many of your icon labels will now be in Hebrew.
Open System Preferences from the Dock (square icon with cogwheels) or from the Apple menu (4 down from the top).
Click Languages (blue flag on the top line).
In the list (for Hebrew, the list is on the right), locate US English or UK English, and drag it to the top of the list (above the Hebrew line). Close System Preferences. Log out (Apple menu, bottom option).
Hope that helps

How to stop the s/w updates please... It's driving me mad...

Thanks for looking.
I've changed s/w update in the system prefs and when a s/w update pop's up, and I click "Not Now" it comes back in about 30 seconds. It's really annoying.
Thanks for any help.

If he's like me he is probably tired of being nagged about updates he doesn't need.
If I didn't have SU set to manual it would pester me to install updates I don't have any use for like
the AirPort Utility update. I don't have any Apple Airport hardware. The iLife Media Browser, I don't
have iLife 08 and of course there is no way to inform SU when updates don't apply to you,
so that it will leave you alone.

We're Sorry, Activation Server Temporarily Unavailable, contact Customer Care...Your request Could Not Be Completed?"
99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
So, you need to get a sim card from the carrier the phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked.
Apple has started to get "tough" with hacked iPhones, & simply won't permit their activation.

How do i restore my iphone when it has been disabled and cannot be restored through itunes because of the error message that says "The iphone software update server could not be contacted

Have you jailbroken this device? This will make the iPhone not talk to the Software Update Server (that signs and accepts software updates) please refer to the following link? Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"
The iPhone will talk to the software update servers, just need to change the host files, it's a simple process, sorry if you were confused about the wording in to top?

How I get the new software to update my phone fast???

How I get the newest software to update my Iphone fast?

What do you mean by "fast"? The only way for you is to connect your phone to iTunes and click "Udate. If this seems to dowload too slow, disable ALL security apps (firewall, antivirus, etc.) when updating.
Your profile states you're running iOS 3.1.3 on an iPhone 4 which isn't even possible - the iPhone 4 can't run anything earlier than iOS 4.0

Well first off you shouldn't have had to pay for a download (just an assumption from the word "purchased".
If you are trying to install iOS 5 on your iPod touch, it won't work they arent compatible. I suggest checking what version of software you are trying to install and posting it in this forum so people can have a better understanding.

How do I know if the Maverick software update has been installed on my mac?

How do I know if the Maverick software update has been installed on my mac?

It will not download if you already have it.
Just to be 100% clear …
Look in /Applications for "Install OS X Mavericks"
Use the Finders Go menu > Applications. To open it.
You may have an Applications folder in your Home directory too, it shouldn't be in there but it is possible.
Also try Spotlight to see if it can find that filename.
Can you also tell us what system you have?
Apple menu > About this Mac > more info button… What is the Model (under the Overview tab).
10.9 doesn't install on all systems, so it could explain why you can't get it, however it usually displays a dialog stating that fact.

How much data is being backed-up from each Mac? (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
Most likely, there just isn't room. Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't. Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).
Also see #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for more details.

Anyone know how to stop the "activate" box from blocking usage of a perfectly legal copy of Ilisten? I want to help my dyslexic grandson and this box, including the activation code, keeps popping up, keeping me from using the software. I activated the program and did a few profile building sessions, now it pops up each time I start the program, blocking me from using it. Help sure would be appreciated.
Jay

I looked at your post this morning and did not know enough to respond, other than to find out that links to iListen now go to newer, renamed software. Considering it's been nine hours with no response, I'm suspecting few people here have experience with that software. You could contact the current copmany that used to sell that package and see if they have any archived support info.
BTW: please check you entry for "Mac OS" in your profile. It says iOS, which cannot run on an iMac. iOS is the system for phone and iPads but can't run on Mac computers. Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and see what it says about the OS version. Should look like this:
If the "Processor" line says "Intel," you have a newer Mac than the old modles this forum covers; Intel iMac have their very own forum here:
iMac (Intel)
