HT1338 software update is saying my safari is up to date but it's not....
I am running Safari 5.1.5 but when I run software update it is saying I am up to date. I have tried downloading from the apple website unsuccessfully.
There is a know problem with the Safari downloads from Apple, it's been reported.
Safari 5.1.7 is on 10.6.8 so your due for the update for sure, it's just they are having issues right now of a unknown nature, your the second I've discussed this with.
Wait it out and come back later or use Firefox in the meanwhile.

I cannot update iTunes because when I run the Apple Software Updater, it says "'iTunes + QuickTime' has an invalid signature. It will not be installed." If I try downloading only it says "'iTunes cannot update. Invalid signature. Can someone help?
This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes for Windows forums.

Okay: My start page is the one Google provides: http://www.google.ca/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official and frequently it has a note underneath the search box that "You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!" But when I check for updates on the About Firefox window, it says my Firefox is up to date. So what is the start page looking for? Is there some setting I need to adjust? Or is this a Google marketing ploy to get me to switch to Chrome?
I tentatively think I have the solution; this is for when the session id value 'thing', in about:config, referred to in other answers is already on the default/rest state.
I am assuming, I don't what to imply certainty in-case there is a value wrong in our browsers, that the problem stems from the fact that our homepage is no longer the default for Firefox.
So, go to 'Options'>'General' and delete the homepage. This will reset it to the new address, which is 'about:home'.
I hope this helps some people. -

How do I get a driver for my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 so that it will run with Mountain LIon? I tried "Software Update" and says "no update available". I contacted Epson and was told all driver updates had to be obtained using "Software Update"?
You will find the latest Epson drivers herehttp://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398.
If you don't find a driver for your printer in the above, then install the Gutenprint drivers. It supports your model. -
I have 10.5.8 and when I run software update, it says it is up to date. How do I update further?
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Snow Leopard is a paid upgrade, so you can't get it in Software Update.
First, check if your Mac is supported > http://support.apple.com/kb/sp575 Then, buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
After that, make a Time Machine backup and/or a clone with Carbon Copy Cloner, insert the DVD and upgrade. The disc will upgrade OS X to 10.6.3, so open > Software Update and install the most recent version -
I did software update, now java in Safari doesn't work.
I ran software update, now Java in Safari and Firefox doesn't work. How do I fix it?
I already tried that.
I am running OS 10.6.8.
I did a "normal" software update (under the Apple icon).. didn't update the OS to a higher level, it's still 10.6.8. But now certain websites tell me that Java is missing or not working. When I go to the Java site, they say that you can only download the newest Java for OS 7 or higher... that Java is automatically part of OS 6 and should have automatically updated when I do a Mac software update.
Java used to work. Now that I've "updated" my Mac software, it doesn't work. And there's no way to download and install Java (according to them).
It's a never ending circle with no solution. -
I have been trying to update my computer ( mac book Pro ) to at least the 10.6.8 Version but it says that i need a least a 10.6 first. When i go into the software update it says that my computer is updated. Its not help me.
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 must 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 MobileMe service; 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)
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
7. Xserve (Early 2009)
Are my applications compatible?
See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.
For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion. -

I have OSX 10.6.4 and when I go to software update it says I am up to date......what to do?
Hi,
I did this but it did not work. I notice that SoftwareUpdate.plist when I have dragged it to the desktop is still in Preferences.
Also, I am doubtful that I am really in safe mode as it does not say so and when I press shift on start up tone i get rapid non-stop flashing of smaller grey symbols: do not enter, question mark, apple logo; so, in order to get the flashing to stop I momentarily release the shift and the larger grey apple logo comes up and then I press shift as quickly as I can then I release it as the gears start spinning.
I really appreciate your time and trouble on this. -
my macknook pro is incredibly behind in updates. however when selecting software update it says there are no updates. i can't do much with it due to nothing running on the software i have currently.
To get to the next release of OS X, which is Snow Leopard 10.6, you must purchase the install DVD for it from Apple.
This is the next required upgrade from 10.5. Once you get there then you can consider upgrading to newer version if your MBP will support them. -
The Software Update screen says Connecting to Update Server, "Paused Downloading Firefox 3.6.4". Nothing seems to be happening.
* I have shut down my computer and restarted.
* I have cleared my history.
I'm hoping the upgrade will help with the crashes. How can I get the update?If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

I got a refurbished mac yesterday, and it disent have the latest osxlion software, and i think it has snow leopard. When i clicked software update it says my software was up to date. Please help me get it freee, because i was supposed to.
Apple includes Lion with its refurbished products. What you bought was a used computer. The best course of action is to try to get your money back and buy a factory-certified refurbished computer. Otherwise, you are likely buying someone else's problem.

While trying to install new printer suggested software from HP for a 2600n Laser color... it says it is fully installed... but then will NOT print. Have retried several times... turning off both the printer and the MacBook. Same old thing... says it is downloading its big file... then same 'ol fail. Have the printer plugged into either or both USB and network cables. Have tried all I know... and have run networks and related connection points in the public schools for years.
The setup for Mac had been fairly easy with HP, Epson, Canon, etc
and there historically was a cheat-sheet or shortcut page for Mac...
Did you get the driver for your OS X version through Apple Software Update?
{Perhaps there was a firmware update, too?}
Or was the driver/firmware download directly from HP Support pages?

They have a product user forum, but I can't say I've used them; printers are too disposable.
And troubles I had with HP in recent years were a matter of buying an Epson instead.
HP Printer - Support Forums:
http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Printers-LaserJet/bd-p/bsc-413
For setup, you should not have both sets of cables attached. Had the unit been
working in the not-so-distant past with older drivers, with any Mac OS X 10.6.8?
Printer errors can be so much ufn to diagnose. Given the vintage of your HP
I wonder if their live chat support would charge to talk to you about it...?
Sorry that I don't have great or new ideas with HP issues.
Good luck & happy computing!
