How to tell what's the latest OS 6 for BlackBerry?

I recently came upon the sticky that tells about all OS downloads for BB Pearls. I have a 9100 version, and I want to install OS 6 on it.
1 - Does it matter what firmware I download? For 9100 versions or 9105?
2 - How can I tell what is the latest firmware?
Something like this...
BlackBerry Handheld Software v5.0.0.1476 (Multilangauge)
Package Version: 5.0.0.1476
Consisting of:
Applications: 5.0.0.884
Software Platform: 6.2.0.94
File name: 9100_9105itutM_PBr5.0.0_rel1476_PL6.2.0.94_A5.0.0.884_O2_IRE.exe
File size: 132.72MB
Or...
BlackBerry Handheld Software v6.0.0.1479 (Multilangauge)
Package Version: 6.0.0.1479
Consisting of:
Applications: 6.0.0.380
Software Platform: 6.6.0.85
File name: 9100_9105Asia_PBr6.0.0_rel1479_PL6.6.0.85_A6.0.0.380_Aircel.exe
File size: 146.72MB
What should I be looking at for the firmware version? Applications, or Software Platform?
In this case, should it be Applications 5.0.0.884 and Software platform 6.2.0.94 that gives me an OS 6 or an Applications of 6.00.380 and Software Platform 6.6.0.85?
3 - What indicates a newer version of OS 6?
What should I be looking at to make sure I have the latest OS 6 version? A higher Package Version, Applications Version, or Software Platform?
Thanks in Advance.
Solved!

hello,
as indicated in the sticky post, each firmware for Pearl 3G work identically for 9100 and 9105. It's the line that says:
"The OS installer is the same for both the 9100 and the 9105."

usually all three numbers grow at the same pace. So between two releases, comparing the firmware version, the application version, or the software platform is the same at 99% of the time.
But on the Blogosphere everybody talks of the Application version. That is the reason why it is colored in green in the sticky post.

How to tell what was the latest patch installed on VMware ESX Server 3i, 3.5.0, 207095

Hello Guys,
I have been running an old server that was installed as a test system on a DELL workstation - Optiplex GX620 (32 bit).
During the installation I had to confirgure the file: /usr/lib/vmware/installer/Core/TargetFilter.py to change the following line:
"return interface.GetInterfaceType() == ScsiInterface.SCSI_IFACE_TYPE_IDE" to read:
"return interface.GetInterfaceType() == ScsiInterface.SCSI_IFACE_TYPE_ISCSI" this made it worked and I have been using it for 3 years now. However, at this time I was hoping to update it with the latest patches and updates and I cannot figure out if I have ESXi or just ESX, nor what was my last update and what is required next.
I have used this command to get the following output:
# vmware -v
VMware ESX Server 3i 3.5.0 build-207095
... I believe the 3i indicates that I have an ESXi 3.5.0 but is build-207095 the same buid as ESXi 3.5.0 Update 5?
If not, how do I go about updating it? What is the KB # I should download?
I can manage it using vSphere Client 5.5 and I can SSH into it using Putty.
Note: When I run... "# esxupdate --bundle=ESXe350-201302401-I-SG.zip update" from within the folder where its at in the datastore, nothing happens... just a new line is scrolled.
Also...
# esxupdate query

... is there any further update for this system? I believe so as the Heartbleed patch etc. was not around when I was installing this server back in 2010.

Hello Richardson Porto,
I wanted to tell you that I appreciate the help so far.
Also wanted to point out to you, that the KB indicated above is older than Update 5, which from your instructions is what I have installed. That KB is for U2.
Now, the document definitely has step by step instructions on installing, querying etc. But my problem is ... NOT ALL COMMANDS WORK FOR ME!
This is why I am here because all the instructions I have been reading does not work with my flavor of ESX 3.5.0, 207095... WHY? It has me stumped.
For example, here are some commands the doc asked me to do and they failed: (Note that I had to unzip the folder on my windows box and upload it to /tmp using vSphere Client)
/tmp # ls
ESX350-201302402-BG      ESX350-201302402-BG.zip vmhsdaemon-0

What is the latest update available for Mac OSX 10.5.8 that will allow me to get the latest update for iTunes. I really need to update my iPhone and CAN'T!! GRRRR!!!

Minimally you need Snow Leopard or greater:
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.

I'm not sure how all of this works but I read a few of yur comments and figured you'd be the person to ask! I have an iPod touch as well as my iPhone 4. I'm trying to find an otter box for the touch because I truly love it on my ip4, not to mention ive given the touch to my 6 year old and NEED the protection. Anyway, I'm not positive which generation it is and don't want to order the wrong one. The model # is A 1367.
Any help?? Please!!!!

What is the latest software version for my iMac? I have version OS X version 10.7.5

What is the latest software version for my iMac? I have version OS X 10.7.5

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You have OS X Lion. OS X Mountain Lion is compatible with Mid 2007 (iMac7,1 or newer) iMacs, so to check that you have a compatible Mac, press , hold the Option (Alt) key and open System Information. Then, check Model Identifier. Also, the App Store will tell you if your iMac is supported when you try to purchase OS X Mountain Lion, so you can skip this step.
While it's being downloaded, make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your applications are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com
When the download finishes, the OS X Mountain Lion installer will appear, so follow the steps. You will be running OS X 10.8.4

What is the latest kernel version for OL6

Hi,
After a yum update, this is what I got:

I am using a SSD and it seems (based on en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIM) that
support for ATA TRIM was added in 2.6.33.
My question is what is the latest kernel version for OL6?
Thanks,
Zhe

You will need to modify your ULN channel subscription or which channels are enabled from public-yum.oracle.com to install this kernel.

How, specifically, do I download the latest operating system for my Mac laptop?

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, follow the Core Duo instructions, open the Mac App Store, and try downloading 10.9. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

According to the Swedish and British Sony website, the latest version for the Xperia Tablet Z is 10.1.1.A.1.253 released on 17th of May.
But this is the latest version for the Xperia Z (phone) not the tablet Z... Or am I wrong?
It's a bit confusing, when the manufacturer cannot keep track of the phone and tablet...

What is the latest FW version for the X6

Nokia's Indian call center really are useless.
They tell me the reason I cant access the ovi store is because I dont have the latest firmware.
The firmware on my phone is v12
The latest firmware, according to them is v11.
They don't seem to understand that perhaps their information is wrong, and that I must speak to my network to get the latest firmware or they can't help me!
So what IS the latest firmware for the X6?
I really hate offshore call centres where if your problem doesn't fit the script then they just freak out. It's like they are robots or something.

Take them however you want but keep in mind that getting annoyed on this forum will not get you an official response. This is primarily a forum where people help each other, not a place for getting help from nokia.
FYI, I don't make stuff up, I was simply relaying problems reported on other threads and sites in an attempt to be helpful.
As for support nearly all companies are as bad as each other nowadays thanks to call centres.

What is the latest release number for OS X on a MacBook Air?

I have just purchased a new MacBook Air.
I am having difficulties with the software update function. I made a software update request and had 7 items to install. When I tried to install them I got an "an expected error" (see previous question in this community from myself). I then tried installing the items one bz one and all was well, except for the fact that the OSX upgrade to 10.8.2 had no effect and left my MacBook at 10.7.5.
Does any one know what is the latest release number and how to upgrade to 10.8.2?
Thanks,
Kim Johnson

Hi
You should be running on Mountain Lion OSX 10.8.2. I applied for and received a free upgrade for Mountain Lion as my MBA was a mid 2012 model. There was a form on Apple site to fill out and the instructions were pretty straight forward.
At that time there was a bout a 1 week delay due to the rush to upgrade to Mountain Lion.
Hope this helps
