Installing Stand-Alone Update downloaded and burned to CD
I have an eMac and I am running 10.3.5. Since I have a dialup connection, updating to 10.3.9 could not be done since the download time was estimated at NINE HOURS!
So, using another Mac at the school, I downloaded the stnad alone combo update and burned it to a CD.
Before I muck anything up, when I go to install the update on my eMac, do I drag the installer from the CD to the desktop and then install? Or do I install directly from the disk?
And, will this work?
Thanks.
What Cornelius is trying to say....Drag it to you
desktop, install the item and then save/archive the
disk image for future use
All of my installed applications, the disk image is
saved/archived onto a flash drive
I am not sure what you mean by "disk image." I already have the 10.3.9 combo installer loaded on a CD which I burned on the computer where I downloaded the combo update.
Are you saying I should save the installer--what I assume is the "disk image," which I would have dragged from the CD to the desktop, to say, a flash drive or the hard drive?
Sorry for not getting it.
Thanks for your input, guys.

Stand alone update to 4.0.1 ?
Hi
Any one has the address to FCE update to obtain a stand alone updater.
Haveing two Macs, two licenses - non connected to internet.
In need of updater eg. as FinalCut Studio Pro suite.
Anyone knows ?
Yours Bengt WHi
Yes that was the problem.
Power Mac to heavy to carry around. (home)
Internet on my job.
For Final Cut Studio 2. One register and then can download the updates.
I did and it works greatly.
Can't find similar to Final Cut Express 4.
Working with different projects and people I need to update without moving
the Mac around (several kilograms). We have two Macs at different locations and each
has a valid license. Non has Internet locally.
Movie is on an external hard disk that we exchange to do each his own part.

I have an iphone 4s and have installed the new ios download and can no longer find games and other apps that i have downloaded. Where would they be or have they been wiped?
Hi,
don´t be worry, this would not be a problem.
You have to take the same Aplle ID on both devices, then you can sync them via iTunes by using all universal apps on each device, create playlists, albums and all the things you need and sync it, no problem...

Cannot play any video from any website in Mozilla after installing Java 6 update 33, and adobe flash player 11 plugin. However, I can play videos from Google Chrome and also from Internet Explorer. For example, when I'm trying to play a you tube video in Mozilla, a black screen comes up with following error message: "An error has occurred. Please try again later."
(This is like the Wizard of Oz -- when the man comes to the little window in the door and says to Dorothy, "Come back tomorrow." )This may be caused by a recent Flash 11.3 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.

The 10.7 won't show that I installed it after it downloading and restarting. What am I doing wrong?
If Lion isn't showing in the About this Mac window, then you need to install it. All the Mac Apple Store does is put the installer into /Applications. You need to run it, but before you do, make a copy and put it somewhere else, since the stupid installer deletes itself during the installation process, forcing another obnoxious and lengthy download if you ever need to reinstall it.

Best Way to Capture Streaming mp3 for Download and Burn?
Anyone have any suggestions on capturing streaming audio in mp3 format for download and burning to a CD-R disc for private listening away from the computer (Intel Duo2Core)?
What I want to capture is definately legal download but it only seems to want to download into Quicktime, and I can't figure how to get that into a format so I can import to iTunes and burn to a CD so I can listen in my car when I drive.If you save the quicktime audio as a self cotained .mov format, it can be imported into itunes. It can then be converted to an mp3 by using the "covert selection to mp3" under the advanced menu if needed.
Hope this helps

Best Way to Capture Streaming mp# for Download and Burn?
Anyone have any suggestions on capturing streaming audio in mp3 format for download and burning to a CD-R disc for private listening away from the computer (Intel Duo2Core)?
What I want to capture is definately legal download but it only seems to want to download into Quicktime, and I can't figure how to get that into a format so I can import to iTunes and burn to a CD so I can listen in my car when I drive.Actually that is one of the reasons I use Audio Hijack. Maybe WireTap is different now, but earlier versions would record ALL sounds, including system beeps and application alerts. Audio Hijack can record on a per application basis, excluding sounds from other apps that don't belong in that recording.
Audio Hijack records a standard audio file in the format of your choice (MP3, AAC, Apple Lossless, WAV etc). Once it's recorded, you can play it back in any sound app you like, or move it into iTunes so you can sync it to your iPod, or burn the file to a CD.
It records in real time, so if you want to record an hour of audio, you have to let it run for an hour, like a VCR. This is the only way to capture real-time streams. That said, if you wanted to record a program like This American Life that is also available as a ready-made podcast or audio file, you should download the podcast version instead of recording it, because it would be faster to download the ready-made file instead of recording it in real time.
WireTap and Audio Hijack are for when no easily downloadable file is available, and only streams are provided. -
In iTunes my iPhone refers me to iTunes on my computer for verification. iTunes won't work on my computer. How can both my iPhone and iPad stand alone?
Turns out that when my iPod Touch was restored, the restrictions had been turned ON for Facebook and several other apps. This is what was preventing the Facebook app from accessing my Camera Roll for picture downloads. This is odd since all of my iPod backups would not have had those settings turned on. This is also the first time this has occurred given the few times I've had to restore my iPod Touch.
Anyway if you experience the same behavior from your iPod or iPhone with iOS 8.0.2, just go to the General settings and review your settings under Restrictions. Once you set them to allow for changes, you should be back in business. -
Can't download new install stand-alone Lightroom 5
Hi all.
I am trying to install LR 5 on a new computer. New purchase, downloaded, stand-alone product.
Running Mac OS Mavericks. When I click the download button, nothing happens. I have tried a 'download link as...' but this just gives me the webpage to click the download button again. I have no error messages. Internet connection is fine, and I was able to subsequently download Adobe Flash with no problems.
I have tried Safari, Firefox and Chrome, all with pop-up blockers off. I am really stuck now and don't know what to try next. Any ideas??
Thanks in advance.Try to download using below link

iTunes auto-update dowloaded and installed on 28/01/2014. iTunes now won't launch and error message states file MSVCR80.dll is missing. Tried unistalling and downloading/installing again to no avail. Any clues?
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

Is there a way to have updates download and install automaticly
Hello All,
I have a network with about 300 computers, 5 of which are Macs. With the recent security issues, and frequent updates, is there a way to set things up so that updates will download and install without any user intervention? Say maybe at 1am? I dont know if this is something you could do with automator.
Any help would be much appreciated!

For 5 Mac's, likely it would be better to do it manually, you also get the benefit of waiting for the all clear first.
Apple has been known ot roll out updates that break third party software, anti-virus etc.
Take for instance 10.6.8, seemed harmless, but these boards were flooded with people who's third party Rosetta based software broke, it cost businesses a lot of money in downtime.
Another is firmware updates, three in a row that were bricking Mac's logicboards.
So automatic updates isn't quite the best course of action, and with 5 machines, it's likely better to roll out to one, then another, then the rest jsut to make sure they all don't go down at once, especially with a small number.
Usually you can get the users of those 5 Mac's to update themselves, pick a leader out of the group to coordinate with, they are pretty happy having Mac's and likely to comply when you give the all clear sign. -

Software update - download and save
The loss of the download and save option in software updates is a serious issue for people like me who do not have the luxury of a fast connection. Typically an OS updatetakes 5-6 hours. So we download and save to use on multiple machines.
Downloading from the website is not an option because if I download more than about 2 at once the connection drops. In the past I could leave the updater on overnight and download all the updates sequentially. Now I have to stay up overnight to do this!
Can anyone advise me of if there is a workround. How can I stop my Mac destroying the update after installing?
And please Apple can you restore the download and install later option. The message I'm getting is that you have little interest any more in your developing world clients.Just a note to let you know that Apple won't restore the download and save option. at least that was their response to my bug reports noting that it was missing.
If you want to report this issue to Apple, send a bug report or an enhancement request via its Bug Reporter system. To do ths, join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report or enhancement request. The nice thing with this procedure over submitting feedback is that you get a response and a follow-up number; thus, starting a dialog with engineering.
Finally, the *softwareupdate --list* command manually in the Terminal app will tell you what's available for updates. -
IBook G4 hangs during update downloads and Update installs
I have an older iBook G4 (model A1133), and it works great. However, I just reinstalled OS 10.5, and while doing the software updates the download will sometimes "hang" and not complete. However, I can cancel that partcular update process, and then go right back and restart the software update process and the download may complete perfectly. I'm at a loss as to why.
It doesn't appear to be my network connection as my PC downloads just fine. Additionally, I've also had the software update download complete normally, but when it begins the installation process, it will begin the install, but will hang and not complete. When that occurs it generally gets to the "writing the installer script" portion of the install, and will hang up and not complete the install. Again, if I quit and then restart the update process it may comlete everything on the second or third attempt. Does anyone know what may be causing this? Thanks in advance.I find that it is better to download a major system combo update than rely on the software update function. You could get the 10.5.8 combo updater and apply it as outlined in these articles.
