HT5056 The update downloads but then won't install - Error

I have a Mac OSX 10.6 notebook; when I try to install the Java update - it downloads just fine but then just says there is an error and won't install. I have not had any problems before with updates.

Do you think I should pay to get help from Support to get this update installed?
Ummm...no. Download and install the updates manually: http://support.apple.com/downloads/

  • Pro free trial downloaded but it won't install because it says I already have a superior product (Standard)?

    I have Adobe Standard.  I'd like a free trial of Adobe Pro because moving pages around in a 400 page document in Standard seems to be a nightmare.  It says Pro downloaded but it won't install because it says I already have a superior product.

    I think the point is that you have a registered product and that is being interpreted as superior. Anyway, you may have to uninstall (after deactivating) Std to look at Pro. Don't do this if you do not have a backup of the Std install file and S/N that you should have saved to a backup CD and/or backup HD.

  • I downloaded but it won't install, keeps asking for a password

    I am using Vista and I downloaded firefox. After download complete I clicked on run and a window popped up asking for administrator and password. It also had a button to switch to me and I did both but it won't install. Nothing happens.

    Just to be sure:<br />
    You did download Firefox from the official Mozilla site (http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html) ?
    Did you try to run the Firefox installer as Administrator via the right-click context menu ?
    If you keep having problems then you may need to disable your anti-virus software temporarily.

  • Why does my download box show the active download but then when it's done the box is empty, before this it used to retain the name/title of the download ?

    My download box used to show me the completed downloads ... now it just shows the progress of the download and then goes blank?
    It used to retain the completed download title/name and I could click it to open instead of having to go out to my desktop to open the download ...

    that has not changed it ... I still get a blank download box after the download :(

  • Firefox won't insall into my applications folder. Says can't install because libsmime3.dylib is in use. I am running Mac Os 10.6.7 on a Macbook Pro. I can run firefox okay from the disk image but just won't install into the apps folder.

    My system is a Macbook Pro running Mac Os 10.6.7 with a 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 duo processor with 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 ram. The upgrade downloads fine, but when I try to drag the firefox image onto my appication folder, I get a dialogue box that says...Cannot install application because "libsmime3.dylib" is in use. I can run Firefox fine from the disk image.

    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.

  • My iPod touch will access the app store, but it won't install from it.

    I was given a used iPod Touch, and I don't know any of its history. Eveything was working fine, and then one day I tried to install from the App store and it won't work at all. I can press the "install" button, but then the app store will just close without even setting up an icon on the home screen. If I try to install the same app again, there's no record that I had tried to install it previously. I use this for school, so this is really annoying.
    PS: I am a clueless Windows user, and have never owned and i-anything until now. =)

    Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • I have the system requirements but it won't install

    I've downloaded the version compatible with my computer but it says does not meet the system requirements. It's not a new computer but everything has always worked fine on it. I had uninstalled the old version as I read online that uninstalling and reinstalling should fix the problem but that didn't happen. Any help is appreciated

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    From what you describe, your internet connection is the culprit. Until the download completes (all parts, not just some of the parts as you have now), you cannot run the exe file and install the software. I find it a little odd that the CD forces a download, but the carriers actually are responsible for that distribution when they sell to their end users. In any event, internet connectivity is important so that updates and such can be accomplished as they are released.
    Just to be sure, are you downloading from here?
    http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/?lid=us:bboftwareesktopSoftware&lpos=us:bboftware
    From there, you can get either the PC or MAC version of the Desktop Software.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • I finished downloading the first part but then i press "install now" and it says software update unavailable. what should i do?

    Each step involved in updating to/installing iOS7 requires communication with Apple Servers. They are currently being accessed by millions. Please be patient and just keep trying. Or wait till the traffic on them has dropped.

  • Just downloaded Firefox 5.0. Now, whenever I try to download a file, the Download Window opens, I see the progress of the file downloading, but then it disappears. The Downloads Window is blank. I can't find the downloaded file anywhere on my computer.

    I cleared the list of downloaded files in the Download Window. Now the window is blank, even though I have downloaded several files.

  • TS1717 Itunes says it's corrupted, reinstall. I download but it won't reinstall as "another installation is underway". But there is no other installation!! I go round in circles - how to crack this?

    Itunes tells me it's corrupted and to reinstall. I download but it won't install "untill another installion is finished." BUT THERE IS NO OTHER INSTALLATION. wHAT DO i DO?

    many thanks.
    Reregistering the Windows Installer Service is worth a try with that one. (It's a little trickier on 64-bit Vista and Windows 7 systems, but still doable.)
    First, launch a command prompt as an administrator. In your Start search, type cmd then right-click on the cmd that comes up and select "Run as administrator".
    If you have a 32-bit Vista or 7
    At the command prompt:
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    If you have a 64-bit Vista or 7
    At the command prompt:
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
    Both 32-bit and 64-bit Vista or 7
    Restart the PC and try another iTunes install.

    So I'm finally thinking about switching over from 10.6.8 to 10.7.5.  Normally, when I upgrade to a newer OS, it's usually when a newer OS than that comes out.  ie. Mountain Lion is out, so Lion would have seen it's issues and has been updated as much
