Install Software update install Office updates?

Hi , 
Does 'Install software update' task in configuration manager installs office patches or just OS pacthes? I have Office patches (around 100 ) software update group is advertised\deployed to my build and capture machine. Once machine is build, i don't see
any of the office patches installed. I have added 'install software update' step after Install application and packages step (so that office get installed first). 
Regards,

Assuming that you are talking about within a task sequence. This task installs "all" or "all required" (depending upon which option you pick) software updates that are deployed  (and applicable based upon a compliance scan of course) to the target
system -- it doesn't matter what kind of update it is. During OSD, the updates need to be deployed to the same collection that the task sequence is.

  • MacBook Pro 2011- Allowed updates to install for iTunes software and Microsoft office (I think).  After rebooting, computer wouldn't progress past grey apple screen with loading circle.

    I have a MacBook Pro 2011.  I allowed updates to install for iTunes software and Microsoft office (I think).  After rebooting, computer wouldn't progress past grey apple screen with loading circle.  No progression bar ever appeared.  It just sits and spins.  I tried rebooting with Command + Option + R + P and hearing the chime twice....this did not work.
    I also tried Command +Option+R which took me to internet recovery.  From there, I chose reinstall Mac OS X Lion 10.7 but it says my hard drive is locked so I wasnt able to select it.  What do I do???? Help!  I don't want to lose my files and it doesnt appear that I've used Time Machine Back Up.

    I you upgraded to OS X 10.8, then use RecoveryHD by holding Command R at boot time (no option) and reinstall OS X over itself that way so your installing  Mountain Lion.
    Also Disk Uility can be used to Repair the Macintosh HD parttion.
    Also you can use that RecoveryHD to format and install OS X onto a external drive, then option/alt key boot from it and access your files on the non-booting internal drive before erasing, reformatting and reinstalling OS X fresh.

  • Software updates fail to install so does office for mac 2011

    When I check for software updates it says I have 5:
    MacBook Pro EFI Firware Update v 2.3
    Itunes v 10.5.1
    Digital Camera Raw Compatability Update v 3.9
    Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 6 v 6.0
    MacBook Pro SMC Firware Update v 1.5
    When I try to install these items it seems to work fine. It downloads them and prompts me to restart. But when I do, it fails to install any of them ( I have also tried them all one at a time to make sure it's not just one of them messing it up). Then my computer freezes.
    ANY HELP PLEASE??
    Also.. I recently downloaded Microsoft for Mac Home and Student 2011. This downloads fine but when i try to install it gets to the end and says that it encountered a problem. Things I've found online and support from both microsoft and apple have told me do not work. I created another account and tried to open office from my share drive--NOPE. I disabled my antivirus--NOPE. I rebooted in safe mode--NOPE. i fixed my permissions--NOPE. I downloaded the trail version which is supposed to be "error free"--NOPE
    ANY HELP PLEASE??
    Thank you

    The EFI update should be installed all by itself.
    The directions are a bit wacky, and what happens is a bit wacky. If you get that one in, the rest may unclog.

  • HP Driver "Can't install because it is not available from Software Update Server"

    Proplem: Can't use my HP Officejet 6500 E709n on my MacBook Pro, even using USB connection.    I click on sign, get add printer window showing the HP 6500 printer as USB Multifunction.  I select and press 'add'.  I get 'setting up ...' window.  After a while I get the error window, "Can't install the software for the HP Office jet 6500 E709n because it is not currently available from Software Update Server."  Only option is cancel.
    HP site says that it supports Mountain Lion and the only way to get the driver is through Apple's Software Update.
    Apple's site says Mountain Lion supports HP 6500 printer.
    The Windows 7 computer on the netword prints fine to it.
    I would really like to get this connected.  Does anyone have a clue why the driver is not on the Software Update Server what the fix is?
    Thank you for the help.

    Fantastic, Mene1 & John.  Thank you.  I deleted the HP Folder, deleted trash, reboot, and reinstalled.  USB installed like a charm.  Was able to print and scan.   I even noticed that the Fax printer came up for both USB and 192.168.1.65.  I installed the fax printer for the network and it works great without USB.   
    However, the network for the printer never showed up in the list.  I tried IP option and entered the address.  It correctly identified the printer in the "use" field.  However, when I click on 'add' is has a window that says, "Unable to verify the printer on your network.  Unable to contact to '192.168.1.65' due to an error. Would you still like to create the printer?"   I choose Continue, and it creates the printer.  Printing, it just sits there trying to connect with the printer.    Again, the printer is hardwired into my home network and I am using my AT&T U-verse Wi-Fi connection to my MacBook Pro (which works for Fax on the printer). 
    Any ideas?

  • Various Software Updates (Intel)" Can't be Installed (verification failed!)

    This is essentially a repost of a problem unsolved, but with a new wrinkle:
    When I first reported this two months ago, it was just happening on an Intel iMac. Now, someone else in the office just purchased a MacBook Pro, and from the SAME NETWORK, is have the exact same problem!
    The process is to run Software Update. Select an update. Downloading begins. But when it gets to the end, Software Update reports:
    The update "<whatever the update is named>" Can't be Installed
    The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or correupted since being signed by "Apple".
    Tried this several times, same message.
    So, in the case of the 10.4.8 update, I tried downloading the stand-alone installers (MacOSXUpd10.4.8Intel.dmg and then MacOSXUpd10-1.4.8Intel.dmg).
    Both stand-alone packages downloaded, but got a "verification failed" message in the Safari DOWNLOADS window.
    Plenty of hard disk space. Permissions Repaired.
    I SUSPECT the problem has something to do with either 1) the NetGear router (which connects to the DSL modem) or the Airport Base Station (which connects to the physical network, which connects to the NetGear Router).
    Both Macs (iMac & MacBook Pro) are connected via the AIrport base station.
    I'm pretty sure I have a good network connection, because I am able to use Apple Remote Desktop to see into the network and connect to the iMac with no connection errors.
    Any ideas from all you gurus out there?

    I am having the same problems on my wifes iMac. Any large updates just won't come down. Someone had suggested memory problems, but I have done a full hardware check and all is cool. My G5 on the same network get's it's updates OK.
    However, when I try to download the combined 10.4.8 update (149Mb) for my wife (via my machine) I still get a verification error! I don't know what to do next. The problems started with the 10.4.8 update, so maybe it's 10.4.7 related?

  • Last night, mail suddenly lost all my emails, which were stored in mailboxes.  What happened and how can I find my lost files?  I have the latest MacBookPro, running Lion 10.7.2 all software updates installed

    Last night the mail application from Apple lost all my old emails, which were stored in mailboxes, neatly sorted by category.  What happened and how do I find them? 
    Details:  I shut down mail to run errands outside my office.  My late model MacBook Pro was on "sleep".  When I returned, I opened the application, and (RATS!) all the mailboxes were missing.  They just evaporated. 
    Operating system:  10.7.2 - all software updates installed and current as of 24 hours ago (12-30-11, 6 AM EST). 
    ln the mail program, the trash folder is OK and the sent folder is OK. 
    Yesterday, I did no maintenance on my mail folders.
    HELP! 

    1 - the sudden disappearance of my 22 mailboxes, used to sort the emails that I need to file for future use
    That was most likely the result of some kind of corruption, as I've already said, not a bug in Mail.  Have you repaired the hard drive with Disk Utility recently?  That wouldn't be a bad idea.
    2 - at random times, mail (or the server) says that my password is incorrect and I must reenter (fix:  usually I can quit mail, restart, and the connection is restored without reentering my password)
    This is a known issue, where a failure to respond promptly on the server's end mimics what happens when the password is rejected.  There's no need to quit Mail, just cancel when asked to enter the password, take the account back online and try again.
    3 - mail seems to resort the mail in my mailboxes at random time.  Several times a day, I must reset the sort to (a) by date; (b) by desending
    Never seen that before.  That points more to some kind of possible corruption in your Mail data or preference files.

  • Cant install new software updates

    Hi,
    It seems I cant install any software updates from apple.When I click the install button,nothing happens.Normally the Admin password screen comes up but its not.
    Anyone have any advice?

    Cutting to the chase, I think the best solution to this problem is to make a really good backup with TimeMachine and then do a clean install os Leopard, and then to update Leopard, and then to use TimeMachine to restore your files.
    I tried Archive and Install. At first, I attempted to preserve user preferences. But the installation of Leopard hung. Looking at the logs, it hung after the system had installed, and as it was in the process of trying to restore the user settings. I then tried Archive and Install without preserving user preferences. This appeared to work, but several files were corrupted. Most obviously, files that had recently been edited with Microsoft EXCEL 2008. I then deleted the Archived files and restored all my user files from TimeMachine. Problem solved.
    I wonder if the combination of Microsoft Office 2008 and Leopard 10.5 is somehow toxic.

  • Force Apple Software Updates to Install Without User Intervention?

    I have a Mac server (Yosemite 10.10.2) that pushes certain Apple software updates to my client iMacs (Mavericks 10.9.4).  For example I want to update the Apple Remote Desktop client on all of the clients.  Once I log into a client machine I see that the update is available and has been received from my Mac server.  The problem is that it is not installed.  It appears that I would have to visit each machine and log in and then click install to get this done.  I have to believe there is a way to get this done without having to visit every machine.  Any ideas would be appreciated.

    You might want to look at implementing Munki. Munki is mainly intended as a means of distributing both initial Application installs, but also updates for those applications, e.g. Microsoft Office. It can however also automate installing Apple Software Updates. Importantly it does not require the end user to ever enter any administrator details to allow these updates to be installed.
    See https://code.google.com/p/munki/wiki/AppleSoftwareUpdatesWithMunki

  • After installing software updates, PB won't boot up completlely HELP!

    I posted earlier about my problem but on the wrong forum. I'm new to this forum and I'm a new mac owner in desperate need of your help!!
    Yesterday a few software updates needed to be installed so I did, they were minor- iTunes, iTunes Phone Driver, Microsoft Office, and a security update. I installed all the software with no problems until it wanted to restart. I let it do its thing, but after 10 or 15 minutes it would not boot up so I held down the power button and shut it off. It wasn't making any peculiar sounds except that after 10 minutes the crunching noise that the hard drive makes became sort of sporadic and lost consistency.
    Since then I have rest the PRAM, ran disk utility off my OS X installation disk and repaired the disk and permissions all with no progress. The repairs came back "appears to be ok." I also ran the hardware test and the results, once again, came back "ok."
    I've been reading through forums for the past day or so and haven't found anything quite like my situation. If someone could talk me through some other options to fix this, I would really appreciate it. I'm stumped and in a bit of a pickle. I really need my PB for school and am over 4 hours away from the nearest mac store.
    Whoever reads this will cringe when I say I haven't backed anything up... I'm not worried about losing music or pictures or other documents but I am concerned about losing my apps- I'm an art major and I really need all my photoshop, illustrator, flash, etc... I don't have the original disks for those programs since the computer belonged to my mom who is a graphic designer and got those programs through her work.
    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me. You're a saint if you can offer any helpful advice.
    Thanks so much,
    Scurvie :0)

    Hi s,
    Was the PB working without any issues before this?
    Exactly what happens when you try to boot normally?
    I'm wondering if you did a hard shutdown (last resort) in the middle of your PB installing/arranging tens of thousands of files, so now there is software and potentially firmware corruption (something like a brain surgeon sewing your head up only halfway through the operation).
    Have you tried booting into Safe Mode?
    If you get the PB booted again, repair permissions (not from the install disc).
    Run Software Update, but never let it install more than one update at a time, and repair permissions before and after each update. If you want to be safer yet, go to Apple Downloads and download the update from there, then install it. Enough people have reported issues using SU that I never install from there. Also, if you're really running 10.4.1, that should be your first order of business; you should update to 10.4.11.
    If you have another Mac available to you, see if yours will boot into FireWire Target Disk Mode.
    Now that you've learned about backing up, I'm sure you'll go out and buy a FireWire external HD, and if you get the PB working properly again, clone the PB's internal HD to the external. If you ever have software issues again, you can simply clone the latest backup back onto the PB's HD and be ready to go from that point.

  • Why does Software Update want to install ProKit Update when I don't have any of the listed apps?

    Software Update just prompted me to install ProKit Update 7.0.  I don't have any of the applications listed in the description.  I searched for each with Spotlight just to make sure.  My Macbook has only a clean install of Snow Leopard, Microsoft Office 2008, and Xcode 4.0.2.  Why am I being prompted to install this update?
    Extracted from the description: This update is recommended for users of Final Cut Pro, Motion, Soundtrack Pro, DVD Studio Pro, iPhoto, Aperture, Final Cut Express, Logic Pro, MainStage, Logic Express and iAd Producer.

    Linc Davis wrote:
    It doesn't check whether any of those applications are installed. All Macs come with iPhoto. You may have removed it, but SU doesn't know that.
    I do not have iPhoto installed and it was never installed.  iPhoto is part of iLife, which is on disc #2.  I slicked the disk and did a clean install of Snow Leopard using only disc #1.  I am surprised that Software Update doesn't check what is installed so it knows what update to install, I thought that was the whole point of Software Update.  It seems to know what hardware drivers are installed and will only install updates for those specific drivers.  But fine with me, I will install that update.

  • I installed latest software updates today and now iphoto won't work at all - heeelllppp!

    Hello
    i installed latest software updates today and since then iphoto will not work at all.  The window oens but it remains blank, and when I go to force quit it says iphoto not responding, so it's as if it's crashing on startup.  I can't access my photo library or put new photos in the library from my camera, in fact I can't do anything at all with it. 
    I am in Africa a long way from home and tech support, so please can anyone help me??  Im a bit desperate as my whole photo library is inaccessible, and it will be months before I am back in the UK.
    I am not hugeley techie so plain English please.

  • Admin users not authorized to install software updates?

    A couple of colleagues in my office are having a weird problem. They all have administrative access to their computers, but when Software Update asks them for an administrative password to install the updates, it says they don't have administrative access.
    Any ideas?

    This is not happening with all computers, just some of them. Most users (of company computers) update their software quite regularly without any problems.
    Interesting.
    Try creating a new admin account on one of the machines from scratch and see if it allows updating.
    If so, it might simply be a corrupted preference file.
