HT1222 I need to download an update
I would like to download the latest update, but cannot figure out how.
If you mean update to the iPad's iOS, then if you are already on iOS 5 you should have a Settings > General > Software Update option on the iPad for direct update; if you have iOS 4 on it then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes (you can also update via your computer if you are on iOS 5+).
To update via your computer, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
An iPad 2 will update to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), and with iOS 6 you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change - though google have app versions in the store.

Jeez. Trying to view items in youtube. I keep getting a blacked out picture telling me my browser is out of date and I need to download the update. I do that and then it doesn't connect so I'm back at square one.
Hi MiMattheMac, you probably won't have any problems but just be aware upgrading from Snow Leopard to anything later is a big leap. Old, PowerPC - only programs won't work, for example, and even more recently developed programs won't work if their developers have not been updating them for recent OS X versions.
If you haven't made a backup of your Mac yet, and you consider the information on it important, please consider doing that. It is the only practicable way to "undo" an OS X upgrade should you want to. Merely having a backup seems to preclude the need to ever use it.
If the information on your Mac is not important to you, upgrading to Mavericks is even easier since you can completely erase the Mac first.
In any event let the download complete.
If this raises any concerns about installing it, and you need to ask questions to alleviate those concerns, you can just close this window when it eventually appears:
The 5 GB downloaded file will not be deleted and will remain available until you actually install Mavericks. You can do that at any time convenient for you. -
HT1222 I can't download Security Update 2012-002:
Dear,
About subject, I cant download Security Updat 2012-002:
The file “SecUpd2012-002Snow.pkg” couldn’t be found on the server “swcdn.apple.com”.
Help is highly appreciated
tks n brgds
RKAllan,
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.

I know how to make an installation disk without things that I won't use and that can be burnt in a single layer DVD. But I want to make one that would be up to date with all the updates that have been released until now included.
Is that possible? How do I download the updates? How do y include them in the DVD? I would be great if I don't have to isntall them manually after installing the macosx.
I think there should be two ways of doing so:
1.- Include the updates in the DVD and execute them after the system installation.
2.- That the installation itself were up to date.
Can anyone help me? Thak you.I don't believe it is. TimeCapsule restore would be limited to the same platform it was backed up from?
I think what the OP is after is the idea of slipstreamed DVD including Snow Leopard *&* the latest combo updates. In the Windows world this is referred to as a slipstreamed install.
For example you could have the latest build of SL plus the latest combo update slipstreamed in and this should work flexibly across a number of platforms.
Unfortunately though I don't know if it's possible with OSX. It's a real time-saver in the Windows world though if you have a number of machines to deploy or if you're constantly building/assembling VMs for example. -
My (old, never updated) I-phone has no "update" button in Settings and I would like to update it. I can not find the right place on I-Tunes to download the updates. Do you know where to look?

Hi All, I have purchased a BBC top gear magazine subscription thru the App Store about 6 months ago. This bbc app is no longer available to download in Australia because of the Australian version of the mag now being available. Firstly the app symbol has completely disappeared from my ipad. I can still locate my original purchase in settings>newsstand and subscriptions updates are enabled. My second problem is I cannot download any new magazine editions because a message says I need to update the app. Since their is no app to update on my ipad and the app no longer exists/ is available in App Store Australia I'm kind of stuck. The app is available in the USA App Store but I cannot join because I'm not a resident of the us. Any help would be appreciated thanks Fassihire
I think your best bet here is to contact the app developer. Sounds like you need advanced troubleshooting that someone who is a part of the app would know best how to resolve. Best of luck.

I have installed itunes 10.7 several times, all goes well. After reeboot, I go to check for updates and it still wants to update to version 10.7! I cant sync to my iphone4 because I get an error message saying I need version 10.6.3 or later. Help
Thank you for getting me started on the track by mentioning "Revo" Uninstaller. The results of "Revo" spoke volumns on why a successful install of ITunes is so difficult to achieve. It is the evil "BONJOUR".
I then tripped upon the following site by Apple and the detailed directions (I read, printed, re-read and followed the instructions. It was intense) brought a successful ITunes, Quick Time and the lovely Bonjour home. Thank you for the start JD42.

Started using Firefox 4 Betas (pilot test), I closed or logged off computer for a little then signed back on, automaticly had a request to allow Firefox to update so I selected to allow. Firefox updated to the 3.6.
So what happened to FireFox 4 Betas I had previously downloaded?The Firefox 4 betas by default are installed in a different location than Firefox 3.6. You appear to have opened Firefox 3.6 which would then update it to the latest version. You should still have the Firefox 4 beta installed. Check your program files to see if Firefox 4 beta is installed. The release version is normally found here - C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\ and beta vesion in a folder with a name similar to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta n\
For info the Firefox 4 release candidate is due out soon, though no date has been set it may be sometime in the next week. -

Since you are already on IOS 5.0.1, you can update directly from your iPhone.
