Latest OS X update not possible

After I got the information that a new version of OS X is available, I downloaded it and the MacBook Pro started the installation. After ca. 5 Minutes the process stopped with a error message, that the the update is not not possible due of a possibel corrupt file and that I should try later again.
I tried 5 times with the same result.
How can I update the MacBook Pro?
Somebody around with the same experience?
thanks for any hint
best regards

I think I wait for the next major update and hope this will run...
I only have Version 10.6.3 on a DVD...10.7 I purchased by dowloading it from Apple.
Don't know what will happen if I install 10.6 over the top...... will I get 10.7 again ? Will the apps continue to run?
Sorry to tell you but if the current update won't install the next one won't either until you fix the problem that is stopping the current one from working.
No you don't want to install that older OS over the top of Lion. That would be Really bad and wouldn't work anyway.
When you installed Lion it created a Recovery HD partition on your drive. To get to that Recovery HD partition you have to hold down the Command+r key combo at startup. That will boot you to the Recovery HD. From there you can RE-Download and install the Lion OS.
But what you should do first is get this program from Apple.
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1433
Then create a USB stick with it that has all the Recovery HD files on it. That will allow you to boot the computer from that stick and do maintenance and re-install the OS.
But you should also follow the instructions for making your own USB stick that has the OS install files on it so you don't have to go through downloading the OS when and if you need to re-install. These instruction are found all over the net.
The real definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting a different outcome.
Good Luck and Best Wishes. Have a great Sunday.

  • ISight 1.0.3 update not possible on iChat 3

    Soft Version : 1.0.2 (up-date requised)
    In the program of up-date of d'iSight 1.0.3, proposal to install the last software on my iSight, BUT it's not possible to install this last version.
    AND this question again at each launch of iChat 3.
    Please, How to solve that ? (update version or cancel the question).

     Hello, iPh!l.
    Your 10.4.x (Tiger) Mac will not run the firmware update because the 1.0.3 Firmware update is only for 10.3.7-10.3.9 (Panther). If your Mac OS X maintenance is not up to date, doing maintenance may correct your problem.
    If maintenance does NOT fix the problem, I agree with Ralph that applying the 10.4.6 Combo Update should resolve your issue. Because you had difficulty with the Combo Updater when you tried previously, you should use the update technique suggested in How I Update My Mac OS X. That method works for me.
    If the problem persists, try connecting your iSight to a Mac that is running Panther to do the firmware update. Perhaps a friend or local retailer has one that you can use to perform the firmware update on your iSight. Your iSight should then work properly on you Mac. If not, see your Apple Service Technician.
    If you do not have access to an Apple Service Technician, you might also get some helpful ideas by searching iSight Discussions for "1.0.3" for suggestions offered to other users.

  • Firmware update not possible

    I bought a 3G and as I connect to iTunes I got the message it is unable to update.
    I think there is a customized firmware with the iPad baseband on the phone.
    What can I do to go back to the original firmware?
    There should be a way to go back to a virgin state from that customized firmware.
    It is only that a downgrade is not possible. There should be a chance to clear the
    memory, or am I wrong?

    If that's the case, you most likely will never be able to install a stock firmware on your phone...custom .ipsw files only.

  • Artboard not showing in Photoshop - Update not possible, because download fails

    Hi,
    I keep having issues with Photoshop CS5. Sometimes when I open a file, the image itself doesn't show (the artboard). In the layers I see the file is open, but I can't see the image. When I restart the computer it usually works again. It's not a problem of the videocard, it has been replaced.
    I can't do an update on any Adobe programs either, because it keeps saying "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later." And the same thing again and again.
    Any ideas on those two issues?
    Thanks, Caro

    The latest version of CS5 can be downloaded here: Download CS5 products

  • Could not activate iPhone - server is unavailable; update not possible

    My iPhone said it required activation when I turned it on. I go to the "Activate iPhone" screen and enter my Apple ID and password. Hitting "Next" doesn't seem to produce any results, but then tells me (after multiple attempts) that "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."  I found this result: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3424. I tried restarting it but get the same screen.
    I tried connecting to iTunes and I am told that the software has expired and must be updated. Hitting the "Check for Update" button on iTunes, however, says I'm up to date. The last option the link above gives is to "Restore iPhone" - however clicking this tells me I have to turn off "Find My iPhone" before I can. How do I turn off "Find My iPhone"? I have to access the app on my device, which I can't get into as it's not activated.
    Any thoughts on how I can fix this?

    this is outrageous! I'm a developer too and using ios since the beta versions! Now I can't use my iphone, neither activate it (takes too long and then gives an error). Itunes gives an error too saying that the software version is wrong but I can't update it because it says that I have the latest version....
    Gone to "Find my iphone" and erase all content and then erase iphone from icloud but the issue still on....

  • Windows latest forced nVidia update not compatible with HP Firebird PC

    The latest windows update is including an "Important" October 2012 update from Nvidia that is not compatible with the Firbird's graphics.      It completely trashes the graphics and will only run in the low-power hybrid mode.     I re-installed the HP driver, only to have it reset again by the Windows update and had to do it all over again.   If anyone is having this problem, make sure you disable the nVidia update.

  • XML Updating not possible after Copy Paste

    Hi all
    I have a problem with updating large financial tables. The tables are generated from Excel into XML, then placed via JavaScript on ID pages. I can get up to 10 tables some containing 100 rows by 8 cols data.
    All formating is done by the combination of Tags, Styles and Scripts.
    Should the people that generate the financial tables in the first place update the Excel file, we re run the process and the layout tables in ID update no problem.
    Now come the layout artists and copy paste the table they need onto the layout where additional background stories and images combine into the final layout.
    The XML tree of the data they copy also copies into the layoutfile. All good so far.
    Now an update via Excel arrives and I need to update the final layout file.
    But the link is no longer in the Links palette. As soon as I do the copy paste it is gone.
    How do I update the relevant subset of XML on the final layout file, from the complete XML dataset given to me.
    Any ideas where I went wrong?
    Romano

    I do not think is possible to copy links between documents.
    I think the only way to create a link is to Import XML and Create Link.
    Therefore, you should try to adopt a workflow that does not result in copy and pasting the XML to a new document:
    Several choices present themselves:
    1. Adjust your script to import the XML into the final layout file directly.
    2. After you have copy-and-pasted the XML, open the structure pane, select the XML root, and re-import the XML file by hand, creating a link.
    3. Cut and paste the final layout into the layout with the link.
    4. Pages (panel) > Move Pages the pages from the final layout into the layout with the linked XML content, and then move the linked XML around in that layout onto the pages where it matters
    Good luck!

  • Creating rows through entity variable makes updates not possible

    I went through the following basic scenario of using entity variables in my BPEL process running in SOA Suite 11.1.1.3.0.
    We have an ADF business component (SDO) deployed in the SOA environment which represents an updatable View object with all available methods exposed in the service interface. The primary key column in the underlying entity object is filled from an Oracle sequence when the entity is created.
    When triying to make use of this SDO through entity variables later on I encounted the following strange behavior.
    The Create Entity activity being placed alone in the BPEL can successfully create an entity, no problem with that. The transaction gets committed and a new row is inserted in the database. But trying to make this simplest scenario a bit more complex fails... Indeed let's put a simple Assign activity after the Create Entity activity and change some field's value. Running the process results in a fault being thrown with this in the stack trace :
    Caused by: oracle.jbo.service.errors.ServiceException: JBO-25020: View row with key oracle.jbo.Key[2942 ] is not found in Ta

    This basically means that Create Entity succeeded getting the primary key value from the sequence and prepared the row for creation but a posterior update could not locate it in the view object. Probably the runtime was trying to get the row from the database but since the transaction had not committed yet it did not find the row.
    I've been trying with no success to get any working samples in the Oracle documentation or any traces in Google about using entity variables to create and update rows in the same BPEL. The only references I found were about binding to existing rows and then updating them. I tried this out, it works but I need to CREATE and UPDATE rows!
    Has anyone run into this issue already?

    Hello.
    Yes, I've met this issue.
    The root of the issue in your Entity Object. I suppose that Pk is auto generated by sequence in your database. You should open your EO, then chose Attributes, then double click on primary key attribute. The screen named "Edit Attribute: <your primary key>" opened. Check the box Refresh After "Insert" in the bottom right corner of this screen. It means that after inserting of a new Pk in your table this one will be re-read back to VO and therefore you will be able to update the Entity variable. Clear all, rebuild, redeploy, enjoy.
    You should to do it for all EOs you are going to use for creating Entity variables.

  • Updates not possible after recovery from Virus

    Once upon a time... (Over a year ago) I used a tool to remove a virus on this little used laptop.
    All SEEMED to be well. But I recently realized that Updates were not being applied.

  • IOS 5 Update - Not possible to recover Purchased apps after having changed the country of origin

    All
    I am currently struggling to restore my apps that I have purchased on my iPhone 4. I can see my purchase history but here is the problem: The majority of the apps were purchased when my iTunes account was still linked to my German bank account/Region. I have changed the region and payment details when in relocated to the UK. The question is now how can I restore my apps made while my account was linked to my German details? I already tried to restore my payment information and region but no luck so far.
    Can anybody assist me with this problem? Any input would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    @shadow221, unfortunately that method only retured my previously backedup photos and nothing else. After attempting restoring it back to a few Backups with failed attempts, I just gave up. 
    Some users mentioned doing a complete restore to factory setting and do a backup but it just screwed with my ipod and no music back.  So i just let it be.  I reloaded my old tracks from iTunes, my Apps, unfortunately iTunes doesnt give me any option to reload any of my videos FML.
    I did the above and wasted a good day and a half of my life reloading (on my pc) 300 songs, now I only have 1,200+ more to download to match my previous library contents.  Thanks Apple.
    PS: i called Apple a week before the iOS 5 release and an associate explained that it will NOT delete my library if I do the update---thanks much for the warning!!!

  • Confirmation Control Key in PO update not possible with partial delivery

    Hi gurus,
    When I do a MIGO that a partial quantity of a PO and after, I will want confirm the rest of quantity of this position in ME22N, system doesn't allow add a confirmation!!
    Confirmations only are posible if all quantity is pending???
    Thank you!!
    I will reward points all answers!!

    Hi Daniel,
    The confirmation functionality is used to get better visibility & control over the goods receipts. Due to this requirement, when you work with confirmations, the system will not propose any quantity for MIGO unless any confirmations are entered in the PO. Also, MIGO will propose only such quantity for which the confirmation is entered.
    Now you will have two options:
    1. If confirmation is mandt, then the Conf reqd check-box must be checked during ME21N. This will restrict the GR for confirmations only.
    2. If confirmation is not mandt, then confirmation will not be possible after partial GR.
    Hope this is helpful.
    Cheers.

  • Software updates not possible - New MacBook

    I bought a macbook at the end of February 2008. I however have not been able to download the software update for Mac OSX 10.5.2. Each time I activate the Software Update utility, I am told that I have to restart. No problem, I proceed.
    The problem is that my macbook powers down, and then sits there (to date my longest sit has been 24 straight hours!) just telling me that it is "Configuring Installation". After that I completly re-installed the Mac-Software with the original disks but having the same result. I have 3 other MacBooks with which I don´t have this problem. Please help - Thanks
