Keep getting "software update failed" i've tried reinstalling firefox and serching for answers on google..i'm scared i'm not getting my security updates..i'd hate to change browsers cause i love firefox.. any suggestions?

i keep getting " software update failed" i need to close any other firefox running (no others are running)

The quickest fix is to download the latest release from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ and see if the next update works through automatic updates

    After installing a recent java software update(trojan horse) have not been able to open several bookmarked pages.

    Was this the Security Update that disabled Java in the Browsers?
    If so & you need Java, just reverse these unchecks to checks...

    If the iTunes purchases are not in your iTunes library you can redownload them by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If you restore from backup, not that synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup and thus if those items are not in the iTunes library they can't be restored to the iPod during the latter part of the restore process.

    Hi there!
    Yes, same problem too; I've already sent an email to apple support and just received a very vague and unpractical response with "call apple support in your country" as main advice. I've obviously emailed back stating that I need a clearer response and I don not have any intention to spend money calling for support when updates is a free tool. I do also believe this is a probem generated on Apple's end, I just wish they learned to say "sorry, it's us;  working on it!"

    You should try again later, the servers are getting slammed. Bunch of people trying to download at the same time.
    Give it time, keep trying, should eventually work.

Wjosten's earlier  suggest didn't help. Sorry.

  • HT1338 I have a macbook and I keep pressing software update and my computer version 10.5.8 and it says there are no updates anything I can do?

    I have a macbook and I keep pressing software update and my computer version 10.5.8 and it says there are no updates anything I can do?

    10.5.8 is the last release for OS X 10.5.
    If you want to upgrade your operating system, you have to buy it, and it's not available via download. The next upgrade for you would be to OS X Snow Leopard 10.6. In the US, call the Apple online store at 800-MY-APPLE and order 10.6 from the legacy products list. They will send you a DVD, which you can install, then use Software Update to get to the last release of 10.6.8.
    If you want to upgrade further, and your sytsem will support it, you can call the Apple online store again to buy Lion or you can connect to the App Store to buy and download Mountain Lion. If your system will support Lion or ML, you probably should have 4GB of memory for reasonable performance.

    Hello rafagee,
    I understand that you are not able to sync a few songs you purchased from iTunes to your iPhone and other devices.  There may be an issue with the file, but if you have the Apple ID and password used to purchase the songs, you can redownload them.  You can even download the song directly to your iPhone.  I found an article that will give you steps to do this on your computer and on your iPhone:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
