HT1222 Feb,01-2012 Security Update screwed my machine

This update has totaled anything having to do with Safari, Mail starts and retrieves but I can't read mail. Anything that uses Safari browsing engine is screwed. Help

Problems here too but it's with Photoshop CS Vers 8. Did security update and *poof*. Constantly crashes when I try to save and save as.
Tried completely deleting Photoshop and all related preferences and folders in the Library.  Even tried booting in safe mode.  NADA, still bonks out.  Looking to see if can uninstall update if that's even possible.
Glad (I think) I'm not the only one.

  • SCCM 2012- Security updates issue

    We are unable to find MS13-053 bulletin ID in our SCCM 2012 meta data list while we have already selected Critical updates and Security updates in classification list for Windows 7 and Windows 8 from products list of Software update point component properties.
    Please let me know if i have missed something.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    That’s very strange. How about re-run synchronization? Any changes?
    If MS13-053 still cannot show up, you could also
    download these updates manually, then deploy them.

  • HT1222 Are there any security updates for the Mac OS 10.4.11?

    Are there any security updates for my G4 PowerPC OS 10.4.11?

    No. Tiger is an obsolete and unsupported OS at this point. If there were any updates you would find them using Software Update.

  • Security update screwed my browser

    Hello to all,
    I just updated today (a security update and itunes) and my browser freezes (spinning wheel) on some pages. It's driving me crazy. Safari and Firefox don't work on pages like paypal, ebay and other ones. Yesterday everything was fine; I started having problems after the update. I really don't know if it is related, but I would appreciate if someone told me how to unistall the automatic updates I just installed.
    Thank you very much. Regards.

    Without knowing the level of your Mac experience(s) some advice
    about maintenance may fall into an area of no advice at all to some;
    while to others, even though it is basic and sometimes totally over-
    looked (esp. by new users) the idea of using Disk Utility's ability to
    'repair disk permissions' on the Macintosh HD volume, is valid.
    You may be able to simply repair an computer or user account issue
    through use of the Disk Utility in the running OS X system, or from
    the booted OS X installer disc's version of Disk Utility. When this
    utility is run from the Installer (note menu bar in header, options in
    drop-down allow more than just an install) you can run a Repair Disk
    from the Disk Utility; you can't do that from the System's own version.
    The booted install disc's utilities can be dangerous, and are capable
    of totally erasing everything on the hard disk drive; so use it careful.
    Some odd behaviors can be resolved, if you haven't been doing it,
    by starting the computer in SafeBoot mode and once you are past
    the point it asks for you to log into your admin account, and then
    the desktop/finder appears, you then run Disk Utility from the Mac's
    system (see GO in Finder, click Utilities folder, & find/run D.U. there)
    & then run 'repair disk permissions' - when done, quit that, and restart.
    If the general computer system is kept in a good state of maintenance
    and appears OK, there may be a need to also consider later browser
    versions that are updated and more secure. Also, the Adobe Flash &
    Adobe Shockwave player/plugins should be updated. This would also
    mean the older versions would need to be removed using an Adobe
    Uninstaller for each of them. You can't have a browser running if/when
    you are installing/uninstalling these items.
    There probably are other basic and well discussed items to consider,
    and the simplest would be to start in SafeBoot, repair disk permissions
    and then restart. Or, if booted from the Install Disc's version of Disk
    Utility, see about the health of the hard drive by checking Verify, and
    note the status of SMART for the hard disk drive; also the percentages
    of total capacity of the drive that are in use, verses the free/unused space.
    The symptoms of a problem may have nothing to do with the cause; so
    troubleshooting can sometimes involve performing general tasks that
    may help the system fix itself. Without knowing what else is going on in
    a computer half-way around the world, there really isn't much else to
    do remotely. Except hope you do make back-ups and/or full clones of
    the entire contents of your computer's hard disk drive, and do so when
    the computer is healthy, and before or between major updates Then, you
    may have something to revert back to (you can re-clone a clone back in.)
    Anyway, I've said too much; and perhaps nothing at all. It would have been
    quicker to have the computer in question sitting on a bench/table near me
    and just taking 15 to 45 minutes time and see where my intuition would go.
    Best wishes & regards, in any case...
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Security Update Screwed Up Sound

    I just installed the new security update and now my sound is gone. The icon in my menu bar is missing, it shows an open space instead of the speaker, and clicking on that space just make the ball spin. In System Prefs, the Sound output shows no options.
    I'm running a g4 powerbook with leopard.
    thanks.

    Jon,
    I would start off by resetting the P-Ram...
    You probably know this but hold down the command/option/P/R key at startup and let is sound 3 or 4 times...
    If that doesn't do it, try setting the PMU....
    Here are the instructions....

  • Security update and fonts

    I did a security update on Friday, April 6 on two of my machines and now I can't use certain fonts. I did not update a third machine and the fonts work fine on that machine. Any ideas on how to get the fonts to work again? I've reinstalled original copies, but it still doesn't work. HELP!
    G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   security update screwed up my fonts

    Do you know if the Apple Security Updates are really necessary?
    IMHO, Apple wouldn't release them if they were unnecessary. Following the steps outlined below should mitigate problems when updating:
    Get yourself a bootable, external HD, and make a bootable backup before updating. Then, peruse these:

  • Lastest security update hosed my G5 PM

    Background: I have a dual G5 PM with two on board drives (one connected into a Seritek adaptor). In the past I have had issues with it waking from sleep (it would shut off at the gray apple revolving circle) and after rebooting, it would sometimes quit during boot, especially after updates.
    *Current condition:* After restart with this new security update the primary drive would quit during boot as described above. Then, after resetting pram and PMU, I booted into the secondary backup drive and checked the primary HD for permissions and verified it. All reported was OK.
    So then I tried to boot into the primary hd again. But again it continued to quit at the gray screen. So I went back to the secondary drive and verified the the first HD. This time it came up with errors that DU and DriveGenius could not fix. I then decided to wipe it clean and reinstall/clone. At this time I also installed the update to the second drive. The Primary drive install went OK using the Tiger disk, but, when it finished and I tried to boot the primary again to install settings and files, but then I discovered that neither HDs would boot.
    Most recently I tried resetting the firmware and running the Apple hardware test, but that crashes the PM during the logic board test.
    Any suggestions, other than get a new Mac, would be appreciated.

    Well it turns out that I have mercifully been spared logic board problems...this time. It turns out that the last security update screwed up my hardrive's Seritek PCI adaptor. Firmtek's webssite had several methods to get back up and running again, but it sure took a while reinstalling everything.

  • Security Update 2009: Now Photoshop License Is Gone!

    HELP!! The last time Software Update ran, it installed a new Security Update. Since then, a bunch of my apps have stopped working. My brand new Adobe CS4? Useless; the software won't launch because my licensing is suddenly no good. Virtual PC? Useless; the software won't launch because it says my licensing is no good. What happened? Is the Security Update screwed up? If so, how do I un-install the damned thing? I need my Photoshop and my Virtual PC. HELP!!

    These issues are probably related to the 3rd party software not being compatible with Leopard.
    You can check with them for information.
    And until they resolve the issue, you can simply boot into your Leopard DVD and using your TM backup revert to the time just before the security update. It's that simple.

  • Can no longer send or receive email from any account after Security Update

    Hello,
    I have a problem with my email in Mail. I let software update install the latest security update (007) a few days ago. I have not been able to send or receive my email since the update. I have several accounts and use Mail as my client for all. This includes my mac.com account, 3 att.net accounts and my website email. All give me the same error which is an SSL thing and has something to do with the certificates. I am able to receive email if I turn SSL off on the ATT accounts but not the mac.com (and if I try to collect my email with SSL off I get an angry message from ATT warning me I am not allowed to do so) and I cannot send any at all from any account.
    The error message reads "unable to connect- there may be a problem with the mail server or network.... The server error encountered was: Mail was unable to verify the identity of this server, which has a certificated issued to "mail.mac.com". The error was: An SSL error occured while trying to read data from the server. Verify this server supports SSL and that your account settings are correct". It then states that the certificate could not be verified.
    The certificate date on the mac.com account reads May, 29th , 2010.
    I also have an iMac and a MacBook Pro which are also running Tiger. I have not and will not run the security update on these machines until I find out why it has messed up my email on the G5. I can still send and receive email with the exact same account settings on the MacBook so I know it is not the settings but something to do with the Security Update.
    Has anyone else had trouble with this update? Any advice?

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...
    I don't know if this is a corrupted preference file or not, but it sure can't hurt to try this.
    If Mail is open, Quit Mail.
    /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    Drag that .plist file to the Desktop. Launch Mail and see if you can send or receive e-mail. If you can, that .plist file is corrupted. Drag it to the trash, empty the trash and reboot. Your Mac will create a new preference file for you the next time you launch Mail.
    Also... run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. Disk Utility is in your Applications/Utilities folder. Launch DU, select MacintoshHD 10.x.x in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab, click Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot.

  • Beach Balls and freezes after installing Safari 3.1 and security update

    Hi,
    I just recently installed the safari 3.1 update and the security update. My machine is an iMac 2.4 GHz with 10.5.2. Prior to this, the machine only had one freeze (had to power off) which happened a about a month back. Since the update, 2 days ago, the machine seems to show the beach ball more often. On one specific occasion (happened when my son was using it), the Chess game was running, and the mouse cursor turned into a beach ball and everything froze - can only move the mouse cursor/beach ball but nothing else responded. Even hitting the caps lock key took minutes before the caps lock light came on. Me being a windows user for a long time, I was blindly trying to find the keyboard equivalent of ctrl-alt-del to pull up a process list of some kind so that I can kill the offending app. But was not successful, hence I had to power off.
    On another occasion, and this time, it happened to me - the beach ball came up as I was using safari. I could use other stuff in the OS, but any time I brought the cursor over safari, it would turn into a beach ball. After waiting a few minutes and clicking away on the safari window, the beach ball turned into a finger cursor when I clicked on the http address window - and safari started to work like normal again.
    I'm wondering if anyone else has had experiences similar to this and if there are any steps I can take to prevent this again.
    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Apple forums:
    Did you perform both updates at the same time? I usually recommend doing them one-at-a-time, so if anything happens you know which update caused the problem.
    I especially never do a system update with any other update. I always do that one last, and wait for the dust to settle by reading this board first.
    You should run DU and check the HD and repair permissions. That's a start.

  • HT1222 Has Apple acknowledged the problems with Security Update 2012-001?

    I've read a multitude of user forum comments about this update breaking user software, but have not found a single comment by an Apple representative.

    Howdy,
    Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
    I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
    You might wish to read:
    http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
    If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
    Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
    Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
    With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
    If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
    - You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
    - Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
    - Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
    - Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.
    Links for 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1:

    Allan,
    I have Avast virus checker installed, but I disabled file, mail & web browser checking and had the same problem.
    I eventually was able to download the manual update DMG and that seems to have installed ok.
    Now the Update RAW 6.03 has been installed, but continues to say it needs installing - galling.
    Thanks to you and Linc for replying to my original post.

  • Security Update Feb 2 2012 Kills save option in Word 04

    I downloaded the security update today for snow leopard, and now I can't save my MS Word documents.  When I click the save button, nothing happens.  Has this happened to anyone else?

    Backup files off the computer (not TimeMachine) and disconnect.
    If you have TM, or a option key bootable clone use that to erase and restore from.
    If not, c boot off the 10.6 disk, use Disk Utility to >Repair Disk and Permissions,  (do not format or erase!!) and simply re--install 10.6 (doesn't touch files or most programs, but backup files off the machine regardless)
    Note: If Disk Repair gives a error that is not repaired, then you have to consider erasing the drive (with Zeros) and try reinstalling 10.6 fresh or replacing the drive.
    Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8, it should not include the security update at this time (second pass it might show) because it was just released and they might need to pull it. (they need to pull it)
    When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that installed kext files into OS X, you'll know, they won't work.
    If you get gray screen, hold the shift key and update your installed software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.

  • HT1222 The Safari update (Dec 3) is still listed on the Apple security updates page.

    The Safari update (Dec 3) is still listed on the Apple security updates page, but is not actually available.  How will we know when this issue is resolved if Apple does not keep this page current?

    Actually that doesn't tell you what the packages are, it just says OS X Security Update as a single item.
    It then offers a link for more information which brings us to this page:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1222
    The page is very poorly designed.  This is what I'm posting about.
    I'm seeing Windows Vista updates, Apple TV,  Leopard, Lion.  Things from 2008.
    It would be a trivial matter to instead link directly to the this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5130
    that's the actual thing being installed, that's what I want to see.
    I mean they might as well just link here: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Security+Update+2012-001
    LOL, that didn't even work.  Google search for the specific package results in:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1489
    which links back to the HT1222 page which is the list of EVERYTHING.
    > If you want more control, there is a unix softwareupdate utility you can use.
    Not for these updates.  I can update Dovecot or Apache, but these updates are for core Mac services and tweaks like this:
    Apache disabled the 'empty fragment' countermeasure which prevented these attacks. This issue is addressed by providing a configuration parameter to control the countermeasure and enabling it by default.
