Itunes "check for updates" feature not working?

my friend has itunes 7.0 and when he clicks on "check for updates" inside the itune program it says:
“This version of iTunes (7.0) is the current version.”
I thought the new version of itunes is 7.0.1.8? If so, why isn't the "check for updates" feature downloading the newer version? Can apple please fix this problem because users shouldn't have to download the new update manually and alot of users don't know there is a newer version because they all use the "check for updates" feature.
thanks

Running iTunes 11 on Mac OS 10.6.8. I manually sync my apps/songs/etc.
I atttempted to updates apps using ITunes. The "Check for Updates" at bottom left was non-responsive. I tried:
• Disconnecting the phone (2x), then reconnecting to iTunes
• Relaunching iTunes (2x)
• Reverting back to the previous version (ugh - don't try it)
Googling the problem lead me to many MacRumors and Apple forum threads.
Went to work, tried again tonight and success! The only thing I can attribute the sudden functionality of updating via iTunes is from REBOOTING my G5. BTW, I am using a wired mouse.
Feeling a little silly that I didn't try that earlier.

ITunes 11 Check for Updates button not working

Anyone else having a non-responsive "Check for Updates" and "Get More Apps" button (found in the apps pane)? Clicking either button yields no result, no dialogue bubble to acknowledge the input, not even an error message that it can't connect or that there's no updates available like in previous versions. As of this morning, the button is displaying that I have "3 Updates Available", but clicking on the button does not do anything, the same goes for the adjacent "Get More Apps" button. I ran Disk First Aid's permissions etc. and rebooted, was able to get it to work for the first try, and then thereafter it has reverted back to non-responsiveness. I also resorted to re-installing the iTunes 11 via a fresh download, still the same bug. This versions suffers again from a lot of bugs (and missed opportunities) and I can't revert back to v10.7 because Mountain Lion simply won't let you. Le sigh.

ITunes "Check for updates" don't work for two specific app

I have iPhone 4S, and iTunes at Windows 7 PC. Clean install.
I've bought an GPS navigation app, Turkey Navigation iGO Primo app, which was free at first release day. My problem is, when I click the button "Check for updates" at iTunes(PC), it don't show me any updates, but when I go to app's(iGO Primo) iTunes page, I see that new version released, and iTunes price button says "Update". So I can manually update the app, but iTunes can't automatically finds it. This symptom only occurs for two apps iGO Primo app and Google Search app.
A friend of mine also bought the Primo app at same time as me, and she has no problem, iTunes can find updates automatically.
I can delete the app from iTunes and download again, but no luck, no fix.
Developer(NNG) and Apple technical support can't help me a bit.
Maybe there is other apps at my library that has this problem, I don't check every app's page manually if an update released.
Do you have any solutions?

From the Store menu, select
Check for Unfinished Downloads...

Any workaround?

Hi,
Sorry I missed your post earlier, but I did see another similar one that resurrected this old thread:
Re: Error when using Check For Updates
Apparently no progress yet on this, but since only the refresh list of update centers fails, you can try manually adding the standard Update Centers to the Search list on Step 2 of the wizard:

Disabling the Check for Update feature in 10.1.3

Hi,
I work at a government facility that has tight security restrictions regarding downloading software. We are about to prepare a software delivery package for JDeveloper 10.1.3 that will let our IT department install JDeveloper on all of our developer workstations. One thing we would like to do as part of this deployment package is to disable the Check for Updates and PlugIn feature of JDeveloper. Is there a setting in a configuration file that controls this menu item?
Thanks,
Richard

Hi,
Is the requirement to disable the check for updates feature altogether (i.e. remove the menu item), or to just disable the automatic check that happens on startup?
There isn't currently a documented way to totally disable the feature altogether, however it's possible to add such a feature in a future service update if necessary.
There is a potential way in which you can modify the behavior of the wizard such that it will always find no updates (the menu item will still be present, however). If this is an acceptable solution to you, let me know and I'll fill you in on the details.
Thanks,
Brian

Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
          8.8.8.8
          8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

ITunes "Check for Updates" says 7.3.1 is the most current version

Hi all.
We all know 7.3.2 is out. But when I go to "iTunes--->Check for Updates" in iTunes, it says 7.3.1 is the most current version. What gives?
Thanks in advance.

Also make sure that you don't move your Apple apps from their default location. If you do then the Software Updater doesn't know where to look to see what version that you currently have.

HT5362 How do I turn off notifications for Software Updates? 'App Store' doesn't show in the list of notification apps. I want the background checks for updates, just not the notifications.

How do I turn off notifications for Software Updates?
In the 'Notifications' section of the 'System Preferences' app, there is no tab for managing the notifications of System Updates nor App Store.
Hey--- I like auto-checking for updates, and hey--- I like auto-downloading them in the background.
BUT I do not like being notified of updates in the middle of working! Especially when it's iTunes updates. Grrrr.
Any chance this is easy and I just missed it?
THANKS COMMUNITY!

ITunes app store update button not working

I'm using iTunes 11 on a windows 7 pc, and the problem is that the for apps with update available, the app page in the store is shown to be "downloaded" and not clickable, whereas in iTunes 10 the button says "update". I have a quite large app library with 1000+ apps and the checking for updates button does not always give all the available updates. And it's not latency issues because apps that have updates months before still show up in the store page as downloaded. Anyone else have this issue/bug? I really rely on the update button on the iTunes store page a lot, so any help wound be appreciated. Thanks!

Not sure about the layout on PC but try this.
(1) Starting at home screen (click the house icon top, middle). (2) Top right, click on Library button. (3) Next screen, top left, click the icon that says Music. It will pull up a menu where you can select Apps (also movies, tv, etc).
At the bottom right you should see your update button for your apps and telling you the count of those.
Good luck

Add-ons - Check for updates doesn't work

Hi
In FF5 i found that the "Check for Updates" and "Update Add-ons Automatically" does not work for plugins. I notice in FF6 that a link has appeared "Check to see if your plugins are up to date".
However i've now discovered that in FF6, "Check for Updates", "Find Updates" (from the right-click menu of a particular add-on) and "Update Add-ons Automatically" did not work for extensions either.
Please see here for evidence https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/862250
My question is - is Check for Updates / Update Add-ons automatically intended to work for either plugins or extensions. If so, has the bug been reported, if not, why is it there?
thanks ...

That is because the creator hasn't uploaded that new version yet to the Add-ons site and if he has done that then the extension still needs to be approved before updating will work.<br />
Such unapproved extension usually appear first on the versions page (e.g. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/speed-dial/versions/) waiting for review, but that hasn't happened yet if this case.
Plugins always need to be updated manually by visiting the website or via an alert from the plugin (Java and Shockwave do that)

"Check for Update" does NOT find 3.6.9

I am running Firefox 3.6.8 at home on two computers (Win7 Home Premium) 64-bit on one, WinXP Home on the other).
When I run a manual "check for update" on each computer,
they both say that no updates are available.

Check for new mail not working on one account

For a number of months now I have been having trouble getting new mail. I have my Apple Mail 2.1 preferences set to check for new mail every minute and play a New Mail Sound when something arrives. This seems to be working for my earthlink POP account but not my dot.mac e-mail account. The only way to get new dot.mac e-mail on my G5 tower is to alternately click on the left most icons for the different incomming tray icons in my in box, then the InBox icon itself. I dont have to do that for my second e-mail account--an earthlink POP account, or on either account on my laptop. Also, When I do click on the specific in box for my dot mac account, it takes forever to load that new mail, and the activity monitor shows that it is caching every attachment that is already in my in box even though it is already old mail.
Also, Mail seems to be following Smart Mailboxes arbitrarily. For instance, I have a smart mailbox set up to display any incoming mail from someone in my Family Group from address book, however it seems to ignore about half of these, but display the other half accurately.
Anyone know whats going on or how to fix it so I dont have to mannually keep checking for new mail? Again, I have my preferences set to check for new mail every minute and to play a new mail sound, and new mail does work fine from my Earthlink POP account.
Thanks for your help.

If this happens to your .Mac account only, try rebuilding the mailbox, i.e. select it and do Mailbox > Rebuild.

Select for update query not working..

hi i am tying to get this bit of ncode to work so i can then go to the next part of demonstrating a deadlock between two transactions. however i cannot go any further has my initial code does not work at all. here it goes
//////////User A////////////////////////////////
DECLARE
v_salary squad.salary%TYPE := 300;
v_pos squad.position%TYPE := 'Forward';
BEGIN
UPDATE squad
SET salary = salary + v_salary
WHERE sname = 'Henry';
FOR UPDATE;
UPDATE squad
SET position = v_pos
WHERE sname = 'Fabregas';
COMMIT;
END;
//////////////////////User B/////////////
DECLARE
v_salary squad.salary%TYPE := 200;
v_pos squad.position%TYPE := 'Forward';
BEGIN
UPDATE squad
SET position = v_pos
WHERE sname = 'Fabregas';
FOR UPDATE;
UPDATE squad
SET salary = salary + v_salary
WHERE sname = 'Henry';
FOR UPDATE;
COMMIT;
END;
Basicly user a creats a lock and so does user b, user b enquires a lock from user a and vice versa i.e. a deadlock

Hi
You get the following error:
ORA-06550: line 8, column 7:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "UPDATE" when expecting one of the following:
because the FOR UPDATE; is invalid in your statement.
Try this:
//////////User A////////////////////////////////
DECLARE
v_salary squad.salary%TYPE := 300;
v_pos squad.position%TYPE := 'Forward';
v_n number;
BEGIN
UPDATE squad
SET salary = salary + v_salary
WHERE sname = 'Henry';
select 1 into v_n from squad
WHERE sname = 'Fabregas'
for update;
UPDATE squad
SET position = v_pos
WHERE sname = 'Fabregas';
COMMIT;
END;
//////////////////////User B/////////////
DECLARE
v_salary squad.salary%TYPE := 200;
v_pos squad.position%TYPE := 'Forward';
v_n number;
BEGIN
UPDATE squad
SET position = v_pos
WHERE sname = 'Fabregas';
select 1 into v_n from squad
WHERE sname = 'Henry'
for update;
UPDATE squad
SET salary = salary + v_salary
WHERE sname = 'Henry';
COMMIT;
END;
To syncronize the blocks first in a SQLPlus call these two statements:
select 1 from squad WHERE sname = 'Fabregas' for update;
select 1 from squad WHERE sname = 'Henry' for update;
After this start the user A code in another SQLPlus, and start the user B code. After this call rollback or commit in the first sqlplus.

Checking for new comments not working

A little while back I wrote in about how to know when people had written comments on my blog entries. The reply was helpful, in telling me that iWeb puts a red label on the app icon in the dock when you have unread comments; just like MAIL does. HOWEVER, when you open the app, and click on File>Check for new comments, nothing happens - I've tried it on all three levels, the archives, the entries, and main page, AND the site, but nothing shows up. Any ideas what to do next? Using latest iWeb version, too. I know I can use a free blog site and redirect but I'd like not to have to do that if possible. And the other suggestion, writing a script, was a bit daunting time-wise for me when I checked on what that required...
Thanks!

I seem to have gotten my iWeb out of "checking for new comments". I went to File > "publish all to .mac" After it was done publishing all my sites to .mac, I restarted the program, and it finally finished checking for new comments. (It did take a while to finish though) I am not sure why this worked, but it did. I hope this helps.
