ITunes system update fail

Trying to do a system upate. Tells me iTunes can't be installed. Asks me to quit the application but iTunes isn't open. Same message appears even when I shut down and restart. I have a mac OS X 10.5.8. 
Not sure if this is what's causing everything to disappear from my iPod Classic (80GB) so that it leaves a black and grey screen.  Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!

Hey Paxos2001,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPhone 4 after an update. If your issue persists after a normal restore with iTunes, you may need to attempt a restore utilizing recovery-mode:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

    System update fails and reads:  ''An error was detected with the package catalog for your system on the System Update Server. Please contact the Support Center.''
    Please help !

    Are you by chance connecting through a proxy?  If so have tried running with a direct internet connection and does it work. Also, have you tried running TVSU again through the proxy and did it work?

  • Itunes latest update failed to install

    Latest update failed to install.
    Loaded manually.
    Now won't run at all...
    HELP....

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Safari, App Store, iTunes, System Updates all stopped working - what can I do?

    I have an early 2011 Macbook Pro running Lion.  I have not had any trouble with computer performance.  I do have internet access and am using Firefox to type this.  So my connection isn't a problem.
    I've had this computer since February-ish, and I've never had problems.  However, a few days ago, Safari just quit working.  I can open it up fine and it loads with a slight hesitation.  However, after about 10 seconds, it just stops loading.  There is NO beachball.  The loading just freezes.
    So for instance, I can open Yahoo.  It will open the page fine.  But the second I try to load my mail or any other site, it just stops in the loading process.  So again, the internet connection isn't the problem.
    And I thought, "Oh, I should install the new updates!  That might fix it."  Wrong.  System Updates just sits in the Install phase until I force close it.  iTunes will not open (beachball).  The App Store opens to a blank page.  Even some games don't open.
    However, Firefox is fine.  And so are most of my other apps.
    Will somebody pleeeeeeease help me?  I hate this.  haha  Thanks.

    Oh and I've tried restarting Safari (multiple times).  I've shut down the computer, too.  No help.

  • TV System Update fails to start

    Hi,
    I'm running Vista SP2 32-bit on a T500.  Several months ago, TV System Update (v3.14) began to fail on startup.  The splash screen just flashes and hangs and it's difficult to stop it from within the Task Manager, so I have to reboot.  I have uninstalled System Update, cleaned the registry, reinstalled a newly downloaded copy and I've even installed the patch recommended for Vista SP2 somewhere in this forum.  I've also stopped and restarted the service within Administrator Tools.  None of this has resulted in getting past the flashing, hung splash screen.  It's driving me a little nuts.
    The ServiceStart.log reads as follows:
    Start service
    The flag of monitor registry: False
    The tvsu_exe.log reads as follows:

    What can I try next?
    Thanks in advance for any thoughts.  I've not found any other suggestions on these boards to solve the problem.

    Hi,
    go to windows services and find the services called "System Update". Open the properties of this services and go to the Log on tab. Make sure, that the "Local Systems account" is selected. Then go to Recovery tab and make sure taht by all 3 options is "Restart the Services" selected.
    Let me know, if that helps.
    Also check the Windows Event log if there is any note, what might be wrong.
    Cheers

  • ThinkPad Yoga 12 System Update fails to install fixes

    I have been having the famous floating cursor problem using OneLink Doc and external monitor, mouse and keyboard. So I decided to run System Update (5.06.0034) to see if anything appropriate would inbstall. SU downloaded 4 fixes, and I selected all to install. The fixes downloaded, installation began and all fixes immediately showed "installation failed".
    Therer was a manual update available in the failure message, but clicking on it did not cause anything to happen.
    The fixes displayed were
    - Lenovo Power Management Driver 1.67.10.4002
    - Lenovo Settings Dependency Package 2.3.3.41
    - Installed camera Driver for Realtek 6.2.9200.10252
    - ThinkPad BIOS Update (non-Vpro) 1.24.1.24
    I went to downloads and downloaded and manually installed Lenovo Power Management Driver and Lenovo Settings Dependency Package (restarts required).
    I ran SU and it showed only the BIOS update needed. I tried again to install and got the same failure.
    I went back to downloads and the only BIOS update was 1.08, not 1.24.1.24. I tried to install it anyway and the install failed due to  "The process does not recognize this system. The process has been canceled."
    I tried uninstalling SU and reinstalling and restart, I ran SU, downloaded and tried to install the BIOS and SU immediately displayed "installation failed".
    So I have a couple of problems. SU is not working and I don't know where to look to try to determine the installation problem. The BIOS update info does not match up between SU and the downloads page.
    Any ideas on where to look for the SU failure to install fixes? Do I need the BIOS?. I checked and my current BIOS shows as LENOVO GQET43WW (1.23), 1/21/2015.

  • T60 updates fail to install,System update fails to start

    T60, 1953, WIndows XPPro. Can download updates but they do not install. Also, when attempting to download new System Update 3.14 it states SUSstart.exe fails to "finish" and thus cannot complete the installation.

  • ThinkVantage System Update fails

    Hi
    I have a T61p with XP Pro.  I am not able to get any system updates for my machine through ThinkVantage System Update.  It says "An error occured while gathering user information." and then it fails.  I have no idea why it would say that.  Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    this might have multiple reasons, why this error is present. Here are only few, that I can think of:
    - registry entries with the MTM of your system information was changed, or is not present
    - the local TVSU repository was changed/damaged and therefore cannot read the the system info and the proces list correctly
    In your situation I would do following:
    - uninstall TVSU using Add/REmove programs
    * reboot the machine
    - go to %ProgramFiles%\Lenovo and make sure, that there is no folder called "System Update". If it exists, then delete it completely
    - go to registry:HKLM\Software\Lenovo and also make sure, that there is no key called "System Update". If it exists, then delete it
    - download an install the latest TVUS from lenovo. com
    * reboot the machine
    - test TVSU
    I assume, this should help as the error, that you are getting seems to be a system exception issue, where the applicaiton cannot reaco appropriately due to missconfiguration.
    However, with the above steps, this should be fixed.
    Anyway, please test it and let me know the results.
    Cheers

  • Automatic system update failed: restart ends at apple icon

    I opted to accept all the suggested automatic online update performed. I got a message saying that the update of my system software failed. Now my ibook G4 won't fully restart. It stops at the apple icon. What should I do?

    Hi,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    Start from the install disc by placing it in the drive and holding down the "c" key as you restart. Click through the installation screen through the language screen and choose Disk Utility from the menu (Installer menu in Panther, Utility menu in Tiger). Highlight the drive on the left and click Repair Disk. If it reports errors and repairs repeat the process until no errors are reported and restart. If it starts you're done. If not you'll probably need to do an Archive and Install. Click on Options and choose Preserve Users and Network Settings and all of your files will remain intact. Once done go to the Apple Support page>Downloads and download the appropriate Combo down load for your OS. Either 10.3.9 or 10.4.11.

  • System Update fails on X201

    I am running Windows 7 x64  with 4GB of memory and installed System Update 4.  When I run the application, it gets stuck on the splash screen for about 2 minutes and then disappears. I have powered the laptop on/off many times and no luck. Any ideas here?
    thx jc
    X201 type 3626-D74
    Bios version 1.17

    I think i figured it out - or at least I hope.  Was trying to update my home machine via Remote Desktop from elsewhere.
    When I got home, did a shutdown/restart, and tried to run again.  Of course, it worked.  Guess can't run remotely?
    Now, to figure out why the Rescue/Recovery overwrote ALL of my old backups last night with a new one!  ARGH!

  • Thinkvanta​ge System Update fails:

    When executing Thinkvantage System Update on Lenovo 8168D5M  (Windows XP Professional) I get error message:
    ThinkVantage System TvsuCommandLauncher has encountered a problem and needs to close.
    I have downloaded and reinstalled System Update v3.15.0017.  Problem persists. .

    Hi,
    can you please first clarify following sentence:
    "I also tried to download manually and intall them separately"
    Do I understand it correctly, that you have downloaded these files using ThinkVantage System Updates (TVSU) and also have tried to install these update using TVSU?
    If that is correct, then could you please try just to deffer these updates/ just download them and then go to following location:
    %programfiles(x86)%\Lenovo\System Update\session
    - find the appropriate update(every folder name is the update name which contains also the executable)
    - once you find the corrcte update, then try to install it manually
    - once you are sure, that this update was installed correctly, start TVSU and check if the list have changed
    If not and you still see the update version, that you have just installed, then this might be an issue with the version detection and might be caused, by the fact, that the update does not write the courrent version.
    However, please test this situation and let me know, the results.
    BTW: I assume, that you are using the version 4.0.0024 of TVSU.
    Can you tell me the system, that you are using this applicaiton on? T60, or T400,....
    Cheers

  • System update failed - strange behavior

    Hello,
    I have got the following problem: A system update (pacman -Syu) was interrupted because of power shortage. The system still boots but some things don't work anymore. For example the program wifi-menu returns the prompt inmediatly (without scanning, etc.). Then I tried to downgrade netctl  from the cache  with pacman -U  /var/cache/pacman/pkg/packagename but the the same thing happened, direct return of the prompt.
    Any help would very appreciated. Thanks!
    Bas

    Hello,
    'pacman -Sc' doesn't do anything. It's the same: direct return to prompt. As is the same with 'wifi-menu', shutdown -h "now"...
    As I said this happened after a system upgrade was interrupted because the electricity went down in my flat...
    I discovered at least part of the issue has to do wiith sudo. As superuser (using 'su') the programs start. But some things are still strange:
    - netctl doesn't work anymore, a package (wpa_actiond) that is necessary was missing. I reinstalled it but netctl still doesn't work
    - I tried to reinstall sudo but i get a lot of "exists in file system errors". When I do a pacman -Qo of the files I get the error "No package owns.."
    I am starting to think that reinstalling the system would make the least effort...

  • ITunes Genius update fails every time.

    Hello all. I'm having problems with itunes genius on my computer. No matter how many times I try to update genius, it fails at the end. It takes a few hours collecting my information, then sends it to Apple, then as it tries to deliver the results, it fails, saying iTunes Store is busy. I have tried on many occasions over the last few months, but to no avail. I used to use genius all the time, and I really hope somebody could help me fix this. I have tried many solutions, like reinstalling itunes, deleting library files, but to no avail.
    A bit more information to help you solve this issue
    I have a large itunes library, almost 2TB, approx 200,000 songs ( but I've been told this should not affect genius)
    I am running itunes on 2 computers, both under the same login. I copy the music across to the second computer after uploading to itunes on the first (would running itunes on 2 separate computers affect genius)
    Both computers are running Windows 7
    I Really hope somebody, either through personal experience, or just technical know-how, can help me solve this problem. If not I may have to find a different music player, because genius is the only reason I stay with itunes. Thanks in anticipation.
