I am trying to update my mac to os x snow leopard but the cd won't run on my computer

I am trying to update my mac to os x snow leopard but the cd won't run on my computer. I'm using an external dvd hardrive but I don't see why that would make a difference in wether or not it runs.

Well, that may be the cause of the no install problem, as Snow Leopard does require at least 1gB of RAM. The Apple link below will show how it is installed.

The link below is for a highly recommended site to purchase additional RAM.

10.4.10 update won´t run

I just installed a fresh copy of Tiger in my old G4 400mhz (AGP Graphics) after erasing the hard drive. But when i run the software update, i get an error and the 10.4.10 update won´t run. Even with the 10.4.10 standalone installer, the DMG won´t mount, i get an error and it all ends with a Kernel Panic.
I´ve tried everything i could remember, but no go. Any suggestions?
Thanks

If you have any PCI cards, periphreals, 3rd party RAM modules, or anything else that was added to the computer that was not included straight from Apple, pull it. You may want to reseat your original RAM and AGP card as well. When troubleshooting, you want to make sure that all you have hooked up is the mouse, keyboard and monitor.
After you do a fresh install of the system, does it run fine? Make sure that directly after the install you repair permissions and repair the disk, and then restart. If you think it is running okay, then run software update- and only update the system to 10.4.11, don't install all of the other updates until after. If the system still doesn't upgrade correctly, then maybe you should just stick with plain 10.4. If it works well in 10.4, there may be no reason to upgrade.

Updates won't run

Hi
For some reason Software Update won't run. I have also manually downloaded a few update packages (such as Quicktime 7.2, Combo Updater 10.4.10 v1.1 etc) and these won't run either. I already have updated to 10.4.10 via SW update a little while ago, but saw some advice about running the combo updater to fix 'prebindings' - thought this might fix the other problems, but it won't run anyway
I have corrected permissions booted off the installer dvd, but apart from that I'm not sure what to do next...
Mike

Please elaborate.
OK. Here is what I disagree with & why. I'm sorry that this requires such a long reply, but I feel strongly enough about the topic to air all my concerns, not just those that apply specifically to your recommendations.
First, I think "Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk" is misleading. Display sleep isn't a problem -- it is the Mac itself going to sleep (IOW, system sleep mode) during the update that Apple says should be avoided. I don't think Apple says anything about avoiding drive sleep -- since the drive only sleeps after a relatively long period of inactivity & installing updates by their nature is disk intensive, I can't see that as an issue either.
Likewise, Apple doesn't say to avoid delta updates in favor of Combo ones. It recommends applying a Combo update only as a troubleshooting/repair procedure for certain problems, not as a routine installation method. Since combos are generally much larger downloads, & not everyone has high speed access or ISP's that allow unlimited, continuous large downloads, implying that there is something wrong with using the deltas for routine updates is likely to result in some users becoming frustrated with the update process & maybe even give up on applying them.
I have similar concerns with the recommendation not to allow "SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically." I think it safe to say that this what the majority of users do, what Apple intends as the method of choice for non-technically adept users, & that it usually works perfectly well. IMO, this is because it is an automatic process, requiring no special knowledge of which updates to apply in what order, where they should be stored (e.g., not in /Library/Receipts), or even the fact that downloading isn't the same as installing.
I have mentioned elsewhere in this forum my objections to the logic behind avoiding automatic installs because the process is lengthy & "an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc." Since the install won't begin until the installer package is downloaded & its integrity is verified, the length of the process has nothing to do with it -- if it is interrupted such that the download won't pass the verification phase, the install will not begin & no havoc will ensue. If interrupted during the install phase it probably will, but the same is true for a manual install. Moreover, there is essentially no possibility that a cat or user will abort an automatic install at a critical phase, short of pulling the plug or shutting down the computer.
I believe the recommendation not to do anything else on the computer during the install is overly generalized. This recommendation (which I grant is a common one) seems to ignore that human users are not the only ones running processes during installs (or at any other time). Processes launched by root, wheel, & other non-human users continue to run, generally beyond the control of human users. Does it make sense that Apple would design the installer app to be safe to use when these fundamental processes are running but neglect to do so for higher level processes that depend on them? Such a broad recommendation might make sense for a cooperative multitasking OS like OS 9, which is what I think the logic behind this is often based on, but not for OS X.
Moreover, since an installer package may even replace OS components that the install process itself depends on, it should be fairly obvious that this doesn't occur on-the-fly but only after a restart (which is why it is required).
In general, I'm concerned not just about your recommended install ritual, but about all similarly elaborate ones that go beyond what Apple recommends. There are specific things mentioned in them that can on rare occasion lead to problems, but I think overall it does more harm than good to suggest that all users must take all these steps any time they install anything. There are two main reasons for this:
1. Elaborate lists of steps like these rarely make it clear which steps are the really important ones or when they should be applied. It is all too easy for inexperienced users to get the impression that backups aren't necessary if you follow all the other steps, that backups are important only when doing an install, that it is OK to do an install if you follow all the steps even if your Mac has other unresolved problems, or even that the steps plus the install will cure them. It is a normal part of human nature to look for ways to rationalize avoiding tedious, unglamorous tasks like maintaining good backups, especially when it involves additional time & expense. Lists like these have to be very carefully written to avoid providing grounds for this sort of rationalization. With no offense meant to anyone, this is something amateur writers (myself included) generally do not have the skills to pull off.
2. It is also a normal part of human nature to avoid things that cause fear & uncertainty. Convince users that all these steps are necessary to avoid disaster & some will just avoid applying updates altogether. (How many times in this forum is the phrase, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" used to justify not upgrading?)
For all these reasons, I believe the list should be shortened to the fundamentals: maintain good backups, fix any problems before applying updates, & avoid applying them if you are under a deadline.

I downloaded the Windows 64-bit version of iTunes, but the application won't run. It comes up with Apple Application Support - Error 2. How can I fix this?

What computer do you have? is it 32 or 64 bit operating system?

Updater won't run unless AdobeARM.exe is first manually stopped.

I'm still using Reader 9.4.1, which I recently reinstalled (after Reader X wouldn't open following initial installation) on Windows 2000 Professional, SP4.
Windows Task Manager always shows process AdobeARM.exe running after initial booting of computer.
In Reader, the "Check for Updates" function fails, yielding the message "Updater is already running".
Windows Task Manager shows an additional process AdobeARM.exe running for each attempt to check for updates. (AdobeARM.exe doesn't close automatically following an update or an update attempt.)
Only after closing all instances of AdobeARM.exe will the Updater run, and, unless AdobeARM.exe is once again manually closed with the Windows Task Manager, the Updater cannot be run a second time.

OK, I see.
I would like to help you and it will require a little more effort from you.
1. In the registry below set iLogLevel DWORD value to 1.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM
2. Restart the system
3. Open AdobeARM.log file and copy last section related to the last run of Updater, starting with
[Date\time] Adobe ARM 1.4.7.0 logging started.
E-mail it to me or post in the forum so I can investigate further.
Also, please provide a few more pieces of info
a. Are you logged as Administrator?
b. Is there Acrobat installed on the system? If yes, which version?
c. Did you change Updater preferences to disable automatic updates (I can actually get it from the log)?
d. Is there any other User looged into this system? If Yes, what kind of the User? Admin? Standard? Guest?

HT4314 how do I turn off a game after playing so the app won't run down my battery?

How do I turn off a game after playing it so the app won't run down the battery. This has happened 2x and I have had to reset my phone.

To completely close an app (though a lot of apps don't remain active when you switch into a different app or go to the homescreen) : from the home screen (i.e. not with the app that you want to close 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

I have a 4g touch. I updated ibook in itunes and now, every time I sync, I get the message that the app won't run in os6. Is there any way I can revert the app in itunes so I have the latest version that will work with OS6?

I recently updated ibook in my Itunes. Now, every time I sync, I get the message that it won't update the ipod as ibook won't run in OS6. Is there any way I can revert the ibook app in itunes so it quits trying to install the current ibook app. I am trying to stop getting the warning message. I am also concerned if I ever have to reinstall the app.

Delete the app from the iTunes library on your computer and then transfer the version from iPod to computer by:

Updates won't run in OS 10.3.9

At school we have many iMac G3s and iBook G3s that won't run updates. They all have Panther installed on them. We have tried several things, but it still doesn't work. Somebody please help.

stupidipodnano:
If Kappy's method did not help, I suggest you download and install the updates manually. Here is a list of available updates for Panther. You might want to begin by re-installing the Panther 10.3.9 Combo Update, then see if Software Update finds anymore.
Good luck.

I run OSX10.6.8. Just dwnlded FF8.1 and everytime I go to open it I am asked about the disk image. But if I delete the dmg, the program won't run.

I just downloaded the 8.1 version. It was a 30+mb file. Previously I ran 4.0. So I drag the new Firefox icon into the Apps folder. It does its merge thing with the old version. Problem is when I click to open FF now, it always throws up this window asking me about the disk image of what I just downloaded. I even tried restarting the computer--but the same message pops up. I checked on your website and it says that I need to "eject" the disk image (i.e. I'm guessing that means the 30+ mb file I just down loaded), so since I don't have an eject option that I can find (except for external harddrives and cd/dvd), I just drug it into the trash. I go to empty the trash and I get a message that that dmg file is "in use" even though FF is completely shut down. So again I'm guessing that means that even though I already merged that dmg file with the old 4.0 version file, if I dump the update file it seems that it's going to mess up the actual revised program file still remaining. I just want to be able to click on the icon in my dock like I've always done and have FF open. I don't want to keep being asked about disk image stuff. Somehow this feels like an easy resolution, but I just can't seem to put my finger on how to resolve it. Thanks for you help.

Nope---didn't work. I've owned Macs for about 12 years so although I am brain dead on some things, I do have a working knowledge on most things. I only say that to say this--I did try holding down the mouse and choosing empty trash. It asks if I want to permanently delete what's in there. I say yes--and then I get the same identical message again-----'The operation can't be completed because the item "Firefox 8.0.1.dmg" is in use I can then click stop, or continue.' So apparently that complains the same way it does if I click it up on the menu :)))
As for item owned by---that's not an issue and isn't coming up. User is not a problem either as I am the only user on this system. There is only ONE file in my trash at the moment at that is this dmg file. Nothing Mac. Nothing owned by anyone other than Firefox. The problem seems to be that the dmg file and the original 4.0 FF file are working in tandem with each other--even though I have already drug the new 8.0 globe into the Apps folder and it updated the FF app with the new stuff. If I could force the dmg file to go away, I would do so, but at every turn the system is telling me it can't be done because it seems to think that dmg file is in use---even though everything is shut down and/or ejected. Hey--I'm getting ready to head out and won't be back till evening. I'll check back in this evening. Thank you again for your help.

Windows 7 64-bit update won't run after hard drive replacement HP G62-144DX

Replaced hard drive, ran recovery discs, everything OK except that windows 7 64-bit would not update. Services showed windows update to be running, but update gave error message: service not started. Reinstalled old hard drive which before all tests had showed drive to be defective and tried again, this time all ran Ok and windows update ran. This time all tests showed the orginal hard drive to be OK.

Hello jzerener,
Is there a question in here somewhere? I'm happy everything is working again, but I certainly can't explain why you encountered these results as you updated.
Thank you for sharing.

Flash Player Update won't run properly on my Windows Vista / IE 9

I am having problems with updating the Adobe Flash Player. The player is installed and recognizes that an update is available. I select to download and install the update and an internet explorer window opens and I am given the opportunity to click the "Download Now" button. However once i do the screen changes for a while to a progress bar titled "Step 1 of 3" and "Initializing" which then changes to "Step 2 of 3" that shows "If you encounter any issues downloading Adobe Flash Player, Click here." but never does anything else. When I take advantage of the 'click here' option or the "Need Help?" prompt in the upper right corner I get another screen overlay showing the following. The problem is I am not getting any of the prompts shown below. It is as if the download never started. And no the prompts shown below are not really apearing and just hiding behind another open window on my screen. It seems to me that the update and download functions are broken. The same thing happens if i go directly to the ADOBE site and try to initiate the install or updates directly from there. Can someone help with this?
1.
When File Download dialog box appears, click Run. Security scan will run automatically.
2.
When User Account Control dialog box appears, click Yes.
Note : If you are still unable to download Adobe Flash Player, click the Back button on your browser. Then click Install/Download now and select the option to Save and Run.

Hi jwklingon,
Thanks for confirming the behaviour, much appreciated. The online installer that you were using (aih in the file name) downloads the Flash Player installer silently in the background and installs it silently. It appears that, for some reason, the download was not occurring. The link Andy provided has the offline installers, which are the full installers and don't download anything in the background. Those should work on your system. If it doesn't, please provide a screenshot of the error the displays, if any.
Thank you.
Maria
