I need help getting the software updates

i was constantly disconnecting from the internet when playing online games on the mac side of my hard drive until i got a software update, but i dont think the update carried over to my windows xp partition, so i still frequently disconnect when playing games on windows, anybody know what the problem is or how i can get the software updates on the windows side?

i dont think the update carried over to my windows xp partition
Of course it didn't. Mac updates don't affect windows, and vice versa.

  • If I take my original iPad to the store can I get the software updated?

    If I take my original iPad to the store can I get the software updated?  My home computer does not have room for the backup.

    Well, you can do that, but your iPad will be totally erased and you will have to start from scratch. You need to backup your iPad and sync with iTunes before you install the update, because the updating process will erase the iPad completely. The reason that you should use your own computer is so that you can restore from the back and then sync all of your content back to the iPad.
    You might want to think about the bigger picture and do something to move some of your files off of your home computer because if the hard drive is full, you are going to have computers problems as well, down the road. There are many inexpensive external hard drives available and you might want to take a look at one.

  • HT4972 I don't have the software updates in my general settings so how do I get the software updates I'll need for Facebook & instagram etc?

    I don't have the software updates in my general settings so how do I get the updates to use instagram, Facebook etc? Any help appreciated

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • NEED HELP GETTING NEW SOFTWARE AND ITUNES

    Hello. I recently updated my iphone 4s to the most recent update. I don't know what it's called, sorry. Anyways, once I did this, my iphone was no longer recognized by itunes. It was recognized by my computer, however. Because of this I tried to download the newest itunes. It told me that I couldn't without 10.8.6 software. I did the "software update" on my computer and it did nothing. I then went onto the internet (apple) and tried to download 10.8.6. It said that I could not without 10.6. software? Anyways, I have been doing all that I can to get any sort of update but I'm not allowed to get anything since I lack 10.8.6 software. I trashed my old itunes as it was apart of the process of getting (what would be the new itunes) to recognize my phone. Now, I can't get itunes or any sort of software and I'm incredibly frustrated. I'm stuck and have no idea what to do or where to start. MY laptop is a macbook pro from 2009. (I am not tech savy and thus need basic explanations) I don't even know the software that I am currently running but please help. I am extremely frustrated as my music (which is one of the few things I use this computer for) is completely gone. HELP. Thank you so much

  • Need help with "Nokia Software Updater"...Plz

    hi
    plz help me
    every time i try to install
    and it gave me this MSG
    " Error 2738.Could not access VBScript run time for custom action."
    my Lap work with W.vista
    and i have N95-8GB
    plz i need a help to update my phone

    Please do a search on this forum for "6280 software update" and you will have your answer.
    Many people have written here about Nokia software updater that tries to flash their 6280 phones with V6.10 (intended for the 6288) and then breaks their phones.
    I myself was busy downloading the firmware for a friends 6280 that was just minutes away from being flashed with 6.10 when I came across messages on many sites telling about the issue with the software updater and 6280 phones. I managed to save that 6280 from sure doom.
    If you also searched before hand you would not have this trouble.
    You need to take the phone to a nokia Service centre to have it flashed now and get it into a working state.

  • I need help with the new updates

    I completed the Iphone IOS 7 update but now my itunes says i need the new version.  After i downloaded that it then said i need to have at least OS X v 10.8 or higher i have no idea what that is???

    It says 10.5.8 so this means i have to buy Mountain Lion so I can run the new Itunes?
    The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x Which is the Minimum requirement for iTunes v 11.1
    It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
    Do this first...

  • How do i get the software updates pushed to my tablet?

    I'm having issues trying to connect to the server when checking for software updates.  I have tried via my 4GLTE connection and as well as my WiFi connection and both methods fail to connect to the server to check for the software updates.  my tablet is runing Android 4.2.2 SW version MV7A_31D25_422A. Please help and thanks

    Hi summerman,
    Please use the following instructions to create a shortcut of the scan software.
    Touch the Windows Logo key on the keyboard
    On the Start/Tile screen, type Officejet
    Click on the HP Officejet 8600 icon, this will open the HP Printer Assistant
    Double click 'Scan a Document or Photo', the HP Scan opens
    With the scan program open you can create a short cut to the program on the taskbar. To create a shortcut, right click on the icon at the bottom of the screen on the taskbar and click on 'Pin this program to the taskbar' this would save you from having to launch it through the Printer Assistant in the future.
    Please let me know if this resolves your inquiry.
    Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.

  • I need help with the Security Update 2006-002!

    Security update has really screwed up the two systems I've installed it on:
    1) My G4 PowerBook refused to reboot after the update, getting only as far as the initialApple screen. Rebooting with a 10.4 install disk and using Disk Utilities to try to repair the disk either results in an "Unable to unmount disk" error, or if Repair does proceed, it is unable to repair the disk. I get a "Invalid node structure" error message, then a "Rebuilding B-Tree" message, then a "The Voluma Macintosh HD could not be repaird" message, and Repair quits with a "Error: the underlying task reported failure on exit" message.
    2) On my Dual 2 GHz G5 desktop, Safari appears to be unable to load more than six URL:s in 6 tabs; I read about 20 webcomics all organized in a bookmarks folder, and my usual practice is to select "Open in tabs" to open them all at once. Heretofore Safari has opened all the tabs and all the URLs without a hitch. After the update it will open all the ttabs but only about the first six sites load - all the rest just sit there spinning their wheels.
    Also it has hosed iChat on my Dsktop. iChat will open, but will not send or receive chats, and will not open the buddy window.
    Also Also, the system frequently hangs, seizing up anywhere from 30 seconds to a few minutes, then resuming normally. Safari seems to be the culprit, but I can't really tell.
    I need an update to recover from the effects of the last update.

    I'm not very knowledgeable on macs yet being a new user (switcher) However, there appear to have been too many problems for too many people and too many systems associated with this update for it to be co-incidental. Take a look through the topics since the update appeared. My computer is brand new. The update did something that screwed something in the startup file (or whatever) The nice man in India helped me get the computer going by removing all sorts of wonderous things, this after his colleague in Cork had sent me all sorts of stuff to my work address to try out when I got home, like pram and nvram (which only made things worse) and other things. Now my computers fixed. Except that there's now no printer, it won't find the drivers off the install discs and any driver I load from canon isn't recognised or a script isn't recognised. I bought this thing to get away from problems like this on PCs!!!!

  • I have the first generation iPad, how do I get the software update iOS 6?

    I have the first generation iPad and I'm trying to download apps but my device keeps telling me to download the iOS software update 6. When I go to updates in my settings it's saying my device is up to date with iOS 5.1.1, but it's saying I need the iOS 6. How do I upgrade my device if it's not showing iOS update 6?

    The first generation iPad cannot be updated past iOS 5.1.1
    You may still be able to get compatible versions fo the Apps by downloading the App to iTunes on a computer or another device that does support the current  App version using the same Apple Id you have on your iPad. With that done you can follow these instructions from your iPad to get a compatible version:

  • Signed up for free software download of Lion, I got the code to redeem it on the App Store but lost the code, how can I retrieve it to get the software update for free?

    I bought my new Macbook on July 23, so that qualified me for the free Lion software update. I entered in all my info and then accidently clicked out of the screen before I wrote down the code to redeem it.  I tried to do it again but of course it said my system had already been issued a redeem code.  Is there a way I can get it back so I can get the update for free?

  • I need help with a software update problem??

    I recently got a new macbook pro and I was doing a software update last night as it was required but then when it started to do the update the computer installed the software and then a barring noise came from the mac and it tried to restart 4 times before it eventually came back on. The software trying to install was Fireware 800 I think. Can anyone help with this?

    Try MacBook notebook forum to talk to other users, or OS Software (Lion or Snow Leopard)
    Does not sound like an Apple OS update though.

    I'd recommend trying to uninstall everything - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976 .
    If that doesn't resolve it, I'd recommend going through it, or try installing through another user if you're able to.
