Lion 10.7.2 combo updater stuck

I am trying to install Lion 10.7.2 on my MacBook Pro, currently running 10.7.1.
Before starting, I checked/repaired the disk and repaired permissions from the emergency partition.
The installer seemed to work fine but for the past 45 minutes it’s been stuck at ‘Moving items into place… Install time remianing: About a minute’.
What gives?

Have you noticed that "last minute" can last a lifetime But 45 is more than a joke. I'd go for a long walk and if it wasn't finished, maybe have to power off and go back into the Recovery disk and install from there. The trouble with that is it downloads a fresh installer, which takes ages.
Here is the advantage of an external bootable clone of your 10.7.1, and a copy of the new installer ready for such incidents.

Hi, Hi, Hi I have the old MacBook Pro. Upgraded to Mountain Lion which completely wrecked the system. So downgraded to Snow Leopard. The updated the combo update. Now stuck on blue screen at start-up. Need help. Greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
I have the old MacBook Pro. Upgraded to Mountain Lion which completely wrecked the system. So downgraded to Snow Leopard.
Then updated the combo update. Now stuck on blue screen at start-up.
Need help. Greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Downgrade Lion/Mountain Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer
      loads select your language and click on the Continue
      button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the
      Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the
      mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status
      of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then
      the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART
      info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on
      the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions
      from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS
      Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
      partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on
      the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

Lion Combo Update 10.7.3 Error: What is wrong with my computer?

I was having some issues with my laptop and was advised to update to the newest version of lion using the combo update. I was already using the normal, most recent version on lion downloaded and installed via software update (10.7.3).
Now I've tried to install the 10.7.3 combo update twice and it gets stuck at 'less than one minute remaining' and sits like that for hours with no progress. It then says 'About 6 minutes', and again sits for hours without progress. The installer IS responding, the loading bar is animated and nothing I can tell is causing the issue (I've closed all background applications and turned of my antivirus). Please help! Also, I suspect because yesterday I turned off my laptop in the middle of the process after waiting hours for something to change, a lot of my applications immediately crash when trying to be opened. It's a nightmare! I've had hardware troubles in the past so I'm hoping this isnt a result of those.
Here is the screenshot of my installer:
http://cl.ly/1q372L3F163l3R0d3g0Q

Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

Stuck iMac during 10.6.2 to 10.6.8 OS combo update

Dear community,
I recently had to wipe out an iMac HDD and reinstall the OS. The install DVD contained OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.2, and I wished to upgrade to Mavericks (10.9) by doing an intermediate update to 10.6.8, as required by the new OS installer.
After a successful disk erase & OS installation from DVD, I tried to update the OS by using the 10.6.8 Combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1399, which was located on an external hard drive. Just before finishing the update, the screen went black and there was no way to recover the system. Fan and internal HDD were both spinning, so the system was stuck for an unknown reason.
After waiting for 15 minutes, I decided to switch off the computer manually with the power button, and since then the iMac won't boot any more. Here's a list of what I tried:
- Boot from cd ("C" during startup): impossible, another disc is currently in the drive, and can't eject it
- Safe mode: won't load in 30 minutes, I guess it won't load at all
- Reset NVRAM: no effect
- Single user mode:
- "fsck -fy": no effect, volume is OK;
- reinstalling the updates from within su mode "softwareupdate -i -a" (hoping to reinstall it and get rid of the possible crap): impossible, there is no network connection.
Any help would be very welcome

Thanks for the hint, I managed to eject the disc holding the mouse click and inserted the OS DVD.
This doesn't solve the problem though, I can't boot from it (holding "C" has no effect, nor has the "Alt" key).
Reading the verbose boot output, things seem pretty bad:
jnl: unknown-dev replay_journal: from some_decimal: to some_other_decimal (joffset some_hexadecimal)
jnl: unknown-dev replay_journal done.
Maybe broken filesystem, but I can't explain why external boot mode doesn't work…

Why 2GB Lion Combo Update takes 4 hours to download?

Why 2GB Lion Combo Update 10.7.5 takes 4 hours to download from Apple Servers? I cannot update from Software Update app. In two tries, 8 hours waiting, two times after download finish, get download error. Software Update could not save the file. Any suggestion? Thanks!

Mountain lion combo updater

I can't find a download link for the 10.8 combo updater. Does it usually take a while after release for that to appear?

I did already purchase it. But I was remembering the method I used when I updated to Lion, which was probably a few weeks after the original release, by which time there was already a 10.7.1 update. I purchased it, but canceled the update, and downloaded the combo updater to avoid some reported problems.
Thanks for reminding me there's no "combo" until there's something to combine!

HT1338 Desire to install "OS X Combo Update" so I can install QuickTime 7 to Mountain Lion

Desire to install "OS X Combo Update"so I can install Quick Time 7.
Thanks. Roger

There's something I don't understand. First, open  > About this Mac, and tell me what you see next to Version. If it's 10.8.4, you have the latest version, so you don't have to reinstall 10.8.4.
What problem have you got installing QuickTime 7? Have you followed the steps of this page? > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3678

Lion OS X 10.7.3 combo update bugs

After installing 10.7.3 combo update, I found out some bugs:
The major one is the login screen freezing. Occasionally, when I quit from sleep mode to the login screen. The screen freezes, no respond to either keyboard or trackpad. Then it goes back to sleep mode again. This wasn't happening when I was using the previous version 10.7.2.
Another one is the dashboard calculator. Every time I press once to a number button, it shows up two digits.
I don't use time machine. Will there be any methods that can revert my OS to 10.7.2?

File bug reports via Apple's feedback link.
If you haven't been making bootable backups/clones, then there's no way to go back unless you retained a copy of the 10.7.2 or earlier install app.

Combo Update for Mountain Lion v10.8.5? Help.

I just bought my MacBook Pro earlier today. In my app store I have to do an update to OS X Update Combined 10.8.5 I try to update the system and I cant because its giving me an error code of 102! So I then tried to download it from the apple site and it wont even show progress in the downloads folder. The most it will go to is about 5% then just stay there until I delete it. I need help, please!

If you download the Combo updater from -> http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1676 - don't try to stop the download. It's a 831MB file, so it may take some time to download (depending on your Internet speed).
Once it's downloaded, simply double-click on the .dmg file and then couble-click the installer.
How fast is your Internet connection?

Installing Combo Update If I Already Have OS X 10.8.2

Hi there!
My Macbook Pro 2011 slowed down drastically after the Mountain Lion installation (it wasn't a clean installation... just updated it straight, from Snow Leopard). I just heard about the combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1581 so was wondering if this will fix the issue or it's no point since I'm already using 10.8.2... Btw, when I installed Mountain Lion the version I got was 10.8.2...
Just wondering...
Thanks!!

1) Did you uninstall using Sophos' uninstaller? Just wondering if there is something still arround.
2) What is slow about the bootup? Is it stuck on the gray screen for a while, or is it slow loading up all the programs that were left open when you restarted?
3) You might try ClamXAV for scanning those files you transfer. It can just sit there and not do anything until you want to scan those files with it. However, you might be able to set up Sophos to not be so intrusive, also.
Thomas has a lot of good advice, here: Mac Malware Guide

10.7.3 Combo Updated and still no internet connectivity, 15" Early '11 MBP, Wi-Fi or ethernet

Early 2011 15" MacBook Pro, 2.2Ghz i7, 8GB RAM
I downloaded the 10.7.3 delta update on Saturday and installed it without issues. As soon as I started using it I was unable to connect to any internet conenction within OS X. Wi-Fi, Ethernet, nothing can connect to the internet, although I can connect to the router.
I am able to connect to the internet using my Boot Camp Windows 7 partition, as well as through the Lion Recovery Disk's Safari Browser.
I was able to download the 10.7.3 combo update as the hopeful solution to my problems using Windows 7.
However, after installing it I am in no better position and my 10.7.3 install still has no access whatsoever to the internet.
Looking for an urgent fix, and have tried most of the various forum suggestions (checking/unchecking settings, etc.) - all to no avail.
Please help.

I've been on 10.7.1 thru 10.7.3 and am still suffering from connectivity issues (brand new MBA running Lion). If you search using the keywords Lion Wifi Problems (or something to that effect) a lot pops up...one thread has almost 200k views and the other's got over 45k (other threads have a few hundred or a few thousand), just in the Apple Support area alone, ignoring the bloggers that have also raised this issue.
The issue doesn't affect everyone running Lion, or all of a particular type of machine, but there are enough reports of Lion on different machines (upgrades to older machines, and pre-installed brand new ones, desktops and notebooks), using different routers, in different countries, etc., to show that this is a statistically significant problem, and that there's most certainly a bug in the OS. There are people running PCs and older OS versions and iOS on the same network, and the only thing with the problem is the machine running Lion. Unforunately, Apple has not officially acknowledged this problem, so for those of us who've tried everything and run out of options, we're stuck with what we've got - an expensive machine that can rarely/barely connect to the internet.
There are some temporary fixes like logging out and logging back in (sometimes after logging into a different account), renewing the DHCP lease in network preferences, turning the router off and on again, reinstalling the OS, deleting all the remembered networks and passwords, deleting the preference file and letting it rebuild, changing the order of services in network preferences (e.g. so WiFi comes before Bluetooth), setting up a continuous ping so the network doesn't disconnect because there's no data transfer, etc., etc. For some people, this miraculously works, but for most, it's a quick fix or doesn't help at all.
10.7.3 was supposed to address part of the issue (not finding a network when waking from sleep), but unfortunately hasn't for most people. I'm starting to think the only way this will get fixed is if people kick up enough of a fuss to mainstream media that they start to take notice and report on this. I would think that this is far worse a problem than the antenna issue, because these machines are more expensive, and lose connectivity regardless of how we hold them or where we take them. This is particularly frustrating for those of us who own machines that have no ethernet port, or are in places where the only option is WiFi.
Best of luck with resolving this. Hopefully Apple will fix things soon!

How I revived my MBA after 10.6.3 update: Combo Updater to the rescue!

Hi, just wanted to let everyone know how I managed to revive my MBA when it would no longer boot after a failed update to 10.6.3 using Software Update.
I want to provide as many details as possible, so this will be looooong.
*The problem:* Late in the evening, I got a message from SU that new updates were available. I downloaded the updates to 10.6.3, iTunes 9.1, and three other apps. The machine logged me out, did the install and then suddenly quit with an error message when the whole process was about 95% complete. It immediately rebooted as well but got stuck at the Apple logo and the spinning gear. I could only power it down by holding the power button >4 secs.
*What I tried:* I used a PC to go online and look for help. So I tried: an SMC reset, a PRAM reset, a safe boot (hold Shift key) and a single user boot (hold Command-S). Nothing worked. Slight panic, as the MBA cannot work in target disk mode (no Firewire!) and I had not yet activated Time Machine.
Luckily, I had installed Boot Camp some days ago and a version of Windows. With the new Boot Camp 3.1, Windows can read the Mac HFS filesystem. As it turned out, Windows booted fine and could indeed read and copy my files (with total disregard for any security... nice). So my most important docs were safe.
Still no Mac OS X boot though. Holding Command-V at boot (which allows you to watch the boot process) showed that the machine consistently got stuck after loading AppleCPUPowerManagement (or similar). After doing the SMC reset, it seemed to get stuck a little later, when listing the allowed WiFi channels in my region. However, nothing could get it to boot.
Now I do own an MBA Superdrive so I could boot from the Snow Leopard 10.6.0 DVD. Running Disk Utility showed that nothing was actually wrong with the SSD. It just refused to boot. So I opted to do a 'backup and install' of 10.6.0 from the DVD. It took quite a while, but ran through okay. However, after restarting, the MBA would still not boot. Argh!
*The solution:* Like many Mac users, I did not know that Macs can boot from USB drives. But Intel Macs can! So I went over to my wife's Mac Mini and used Carbon Copy Cloner to make a 1:1 copy of its system drive on a portable HD. I could at least boot my MBA now and backup my personal files in proper Mac format. Right? Eh, no. The boot went well, but under my wife's username I was of locked out of my own home directory. There are probably utilities to circumvent this, but I tried something different first.
I had read on the web that the huge 'Combo Update' files for Mac OS X sometimes do a better job at updating all necessary files. They also allow you to write the update to a different HD than the current boot drive. So... still working off the copied Mac Mini disk, I downloaded the 10.6.3 Combo Updater (>700MB!) and applied it to the MBA's boot disk. It took ages, seemed to get stuck at several points (I really hate not having a drive activity LED) but finished.
Restarted my MBA and presto! Everything fine. Immediately did a full backup and a software update of course. My MBA had gone from 10.6.2 to 10.6.0 to 10.6.3 - Safari, Java and a number of other things needed updates. But it went well.
Hopefully this'll work for some of you too. I'd try booting from a different disk first and running the Combo Update. It will probably solve your problems.

sebuchen1954, sometimes an audio problem can be completely independent of a video problem; for example, when GoToMeeting 4.1 ran on my computer, the video worked fine, but the audio was straight out of +Alvin and the Chipmunks+ when it went through a USB headset. (That problem was fixed in GoToMeeting 4.5.)
Is your partner running the latest Windows version of Skype (4.2.32.155 at this time)?
Since your partner has Windows, perhaps [AIM|http://products.aim.com/windows] (version 7.2.6.1 is currently the most recent version) would be a functional iChat analogue for Windows?

Lion 10.7.2 Software Update doesn't offer Lion 10.7.3

2007 Mac Pro 3GHZ (2,1) with Lion 10.7.2.
Software Update doesn't see that the 10.7.3 update is available for this machine. I successfully upgraded a MacBook Pro using Software Update, but this machine doesn't find it. So, I've downloaded the Combo Update and will run it tomorrow, unless someone here thinks something else is amiss.

It's definitely not being presented to some machines.
My Mid-2011 Mac Mini Server was presented the update via Software Update and installed fine.
My Mid-2011 27", Early-2009 24" iMacs and my Mid-2010 Macbook Pro aren't being presented the update.
As a question, are you using Filevault by any chance? It's the only common thread I can find between the three that aren't working for me.
Edit: Give the Combo update a shot. Looks to have worked fine for me.

Still cannot open App Store even after 10.6.8 Combo Update

Any help on this would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I need to get the App Store working so that I can re-install a Lion upgrade that I already purchased before. I had to replace my HD and now with 10.6.8, the App Store will not open.
I have installed the 10.6.8 Combo Update and then done the other software updates through the System Preferences.
This still comes up when I try to open App Store:
"App store cannot be opened because of a problem.

Try uninstalling the App Store app using this utility > Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
Just moving the App Store app to the Trash doesn't delete all the associated files.
Then try the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
See if that will reinstall the App Store so you can re download Lion.
At some point, you may need the original install discs even if that works.
Replacement disc(s) from Apple:   You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
