Leopard Update (Install & Restart) Not Working

I recently installed Leopard on my MacBook Pro 17" without any difficulties. Shortly after I downloaded the 500MB update. As part of that, I get the software update screen that tells me to INSTALL AND RESTART. I have tried this several times. Each time my computer shuts down to the blue screen and I get an installation progress bar. The bar gets to about 10% completion and freezes for hours.
What are my options to get this update to install?
Thank you!

Thanks for the reply. I don't think I explained my problem clearly.
To answer your questions first, yes, I did download the update from automatic software updater and I don't think I downloaded it more than once.
The problem isn't that my computer won't reboot, it's that software updater wants to shut down (and install the new update BEFORE it shuts down) and then restart on its own. However, it never installs the update. I end up having to do a hard turnoff (or whatever it's called when just hold in the power button until it turns off) and then turn the computer back on (and it turns on just fine).
Thanks for the speedy reply. I just posted this.
Sidebar question -- Do I need to be connected to the internet during this process?

    Firefox says my Adobe needs to be updated-I update the program and am still getting the same error message and adobe isn't working either.

    hello dzucker, according to your system details, you still have adobe reader 9.4.5 present which is vulnerable. please update at least to version 9.5.3 or the current acrobat reader XI which are available at https://get.adobe.com/reader/ (the site currently seems down/has some issues, so if it doesn't work immediately check back a little bit later).

         If they have set up port forwarding for you already then that is different.  In that case, then you could be experiencing the bug with the most recent release of ARD (3.7.2) and in particular ARD 3.7.2 and Yosemite ARD version 3.8 clients.  It has been reported numerous times in the forums and to Apple that since 3.7.2, clients are frequently unavailable to connect to despite there being no network issue between the remote computer and client computer.  I have not seen anyone report it who was working from outside the LAN to inside the LAN, but I have the same issue with a number of my own computers that are simply on a different subnet, so it stands rot reason that it would happen from a port forwarding location.
         I am sometimes able to resolve the issue locally by SSH connecting into the client computer using Terminal on my admin machine and restarting or relaunching the ARD agent on the remote device, then trying to connect to it again after about 30 seconds.
    The Terminal commands for this procedure are as follows, though you might need to include a port number from outside the LAN:
    First:
    ssh ipaddress -l adminusername
    (example: ssh 192.168.1.1 -l macadmin)
    Second:
    sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/k ickstart -restart -agent
    After that, waiting about 30 seconds and trying to observe or control usually works, though the computer may still fail to show an online or lit-up status indicator.

  • After doing last Mavericks update, Messages is not working properly

    Since yesterday, after doing last Mavericks update, Messages is not working properly - the Dock icon is not bouncing nor showing any number for new messages. Very annoying, since I usually have Messages on background while working and I now i don't realize if people is chatting me unless I open the messages wondows.

    Hi,
    Check System Preferences > Notification is set for Messages

    Restart the app and test this sound is (still) playing.
    Place app in background an iMessages "yourself" form your iPhone.

  • After doing a widows update itunes will not work at all

    after doing a widows update itunes will not work at all

    hiya!
    I get the itunes has encounterd a problem and needs to close, sorry for the inconvenience error, no specific error number. I do not have QT installed,
    not having QT installed is what will be causing your itunes error message at the moment. let's try a careful standalone QT 7.1 install.
    download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
    Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
    if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
    (if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
    love, b

  • HT4972 My ipad 1 is stuck on IOS 4 as the IOS 5 update instructions do not work. When I use itunes update the software looks for an update file and the apple site doesn't have one!

    My ipad 1 is stuck on IOS 4 as these IOS 5 update instructions do not work. When I use itunes update the software looks for an IOS 5 software update file and the apple site doesn't seem have one anywhere!

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • App store, Safari, software updates, icloud, do not work in Mavericks 10.9 using a proxy server

    App store, Safari, software updates, icloud, do not work in Mavericks 10.9. these problems are interrelated I am sure. Apple apps were working fine in 10.8.5 I could do software updates through a proxy server using password authentication. I reinstalled a new system 10.9 on another partition and it won't let me use Safari or update software using a proxy server. Firefox works fine (I am using it to post). I am very disappointed that this wasn not fully tested BEFORE releasing Mavericks. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.

    I had this problem myself.
    Checked the system log with Console, and I found the entry:-
    Nov 11 11:16:41 teds-new-mac.ad.mycompany.co.uk ocspd[537]: Authentication challenge received for "10.203.39.212:8080", unable to obtain proxy server credential from System keychain.
    For some unknown reason, Mavericks seems to be looking in the System keychain, when these credentials are actually held in the Login keychain.
    So, I tried "Copy & Paste"  - copying the https user name & password from the Login keychain and pasting into the System keychain, which worked but it's not quite as straightforward as I initially thought.
    Pasting into the System Keychain was, I found a not-very-intuitive process:
    Having opened your Login Keychain, click once on the item to be copied and when it's highlighted, select "Copy" from the Edit menu or, of course, cmd+c.
    Select the System Keychain:- DO NOT CLICK THE PADLOCK IN THE TOP LEFT TO UNLOCK IT.
    From the Edit menu, select "Paste" or cmd+v.
    You will then get a dialogue box,, enter your administrator's password and select "Modify Keychain" or just hit return, as it's the default entry.
    I found a restart was in order before it recognised everything and would accept https pages without alert boxes, but YMMV.
    Funnily enough - and this is where it seems counter-intuitive, if you do click on the padlock and unlock the System Keychain, "Paste" is greyed out in the Edit menu and cmd+v has no effect.
    Exactly the opposite to what I'd expect..

    I use a Dialog Region plug-in for that.
    Please advise, what is causing a problem with update?

    Sloger,
    if this is your tabular form
    SELECT apex_item.checkbox (30,
    ...and this is your update statement
    FOR i IN 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_f*30*.COUNT
    ...Then you will only ever update records that have been checked. Unchecked checkboxes are not passed back in the global array. You need to have a hidden column with the ID's for the record and loop through that when you are updating/inserting. That is why the built in tabular form has a MRU and a MRD. the MRU loops through the hidden ID column. The MRD loops through the checkbox.
    Thanks,

    Hi all,

    Did you check if a COMMIT statement is getting triggered(you can do that by placing a break point in the debugger at the statement COMMIT)? Click on F5 once the control reaches COMMIT statment and wait for a new session to
    get opened for debugging.
    Not sure, about the debugger that you are using(classical/New),  lately, I have faced issues with update debugging while using new debugger, it would be a good idea to cross-check in classical debugger.

  • How do I uninstall the iPhoto update which does not work on maverick?

    How do I uninstall the iphoto update which does not work. ie it tells me my library is locked out and the recommended action by apple does not open the phot library first aid. ? i need to go back to the old iphoto.

    Terence, I was trying a way to message you directly - jumping on a recent thread seemed to be the only way (sorry, DEW45). 
    Terence, you seem to be the foremost expert on apeture and iphoto and have helped me many times in the past (thanks).  I have a question that you may be able to help with (anyone also feel free to take a stab).  I use blogger to upload my photos and host my blog (www.sippingespresso.com).  I spend hours organzing and editing photos - namely, I will enhance and sometimes alter an image in Apeture.  It always saves over the orginal file (at least for viewing purposes), which is fine by me.  But then when I go to upload the photos onto blogger it seems to always pull my dull, original image.  Obviously, I want the newer, bright, enhanced photo.
    I'm one step away from importing them, dragging them out of iphoto and into Photoshop, then editing the files and dragging them back into iphoto, deleting the originals and uploading from there.  There HAS to be a better way - please help!!  I've already posted far too many boring images without the beauty of Apeture's "auto enhance".
    Thanks in advance, Terence or anyone else.

    Looks like updates via the App. store update option is not working again. Comments?

    There are a number of other threads from people reporting a problem with a blank Updates tab in the App Store app - it looks like there is a problem at Apple's end which they need to fix.
    Some posts are suggesting that you if you go into the Purchased tab in the App Store app you might be able to update the apps from there, though you will need to scroll through the list to find those with updates and individually update them.
