Long silent download after 9.3.2 update

Hi,
I made an update of my Acrobat writer version 9.  It wen( fine although it took wome time (about 10 min for download and 5 min for installation).  HOWEVER, after the first reboot, I noticed a long silent download (no indication of what was going on, but I assumed it had to do with Acrobat because trying to check for update from within Acrobat made a message to appear telling me that the Update was already running).  After about 20 min, the download stopped and a window appeared indicating that an update was being installed.  This took about 5 min, and after a now reboot, evryting was fine.
Is this normal (i.e., an update that runs in tow successive "waves" with the second almost completly silent, and a total of more thha 30 min for the whole update...).

IPhoto orders photos using a SQLite database structure - much more up to date and much more powerful than an antique file based organization. If you do not want the organizational and search power of a SQL database then the answer is really simple. Do not use it and go back to your old fashioned methods. No one forces you to use iPhoto
As to why?  The event sort is wrong and you need to set it to the sort you want. View menu ==> event sort

  • Pop - gmail - mail no longer downloading after 10.5.8 update

    I don't know if it's related to the update - and I think I also updated safari (which I never use) but overnight my mail program has stopped downloading new mail from my Gmail account, which has always worked without a hitch.
    The connection doctor says all is good - green lights all around.
    And when I view the activity monitor while it's looking for new mail, it says 'connecting to...' and then 'sending password' and then nothing. It just ends, no new email, no error, no nothing.
    Anyone??????

    Ok, so I got mine working by deleting my Mail preferences from ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist. Just move that file to your desktop while Mail is quit. You can always put it back if you like.
    The down side is that you lose your accounts and have to set them up again, but all your mailboxes and downloaded emails should be reconnected fine. The preferences file contains the information about the accounts, but not the mail itself.
    I tried restoring a backup copy of my preferences file, but as others have mentioned, each time I quit and restart Mail, my accounts were lost again and it asked me to set them up. The only way I found to prevent this was to get move the preferences file aside. Now it quits and restarts without a problem.
    Hope that helps. Not ideal, but you can at least get back up and running.

  • Long "Preparing" phase after 10.5.8 update is NORMAL

    An OSX update usually involves thousands of files, so many as to overwhelm Time Machine's usual method of quickly determining what's changed and needs to be backed-up.
    Instead, it must do a "deep traversal," examining every directory (folder) on your system, causing a lengthy "Preparing" phase, and somewhat larger than normal backups.
    This "deep traversal" must be repeated again (and again) until a backup is completed successfully, so try *not to interrupt or cancel* it.
    If in doubt about what Time Machine is doing, click here to download the +Time Machine Buddy+ widget. It shows the messages from your logs for one TM backup run at a time, in a small window.

    No, that's much too long. In some extreme cases, as much as a few hours might be normal, but some folks give up after 10 minutes.
    Start with item #D2 in the Time Machine - Troubleshooting *User Tip* at the top of this forum.
    If nothing there seems to help, please start a new thread. Include your setup (which Mac is having trouble), what your destination is (external drive, Time Capsule), etc.; the messages from the widget; whether this is your first backup, or your first since upgrading to 10.5.8; and anything else that might be pertinent.

  • IPhone headphones no longer control iTunes after 10.5.6 update

    I just purchased my new MacBook Pro yesterday; happy to find out I could use the "clicker" on my iPhone headphones to control my iTunes. The machine came stocked with a version of Leopard before 10.5.6, so The Updater prompted me to update. After the update I was very disappointed to find out that my "clicker" no longer was capable of controlling my iTunes.
    Has anyone else noticed this anomaly?

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions ..
    According to VersionTracker, Clicker operating system requirements are:
    Operating System Requirements:
    This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:
    Mac OS X 10.4 Intel
    Mac OS X 10.4 PPC
    Mac OS X 10.3.9

    Dude, I got some good and bad news!
    Found out that the usb driver of http://www.usb-audio.com/ is working !!
    Bad news; it costs a sh*tload of money for something that should be working with the factorydrivers in the first place.
    So, if you really need to have this thing up and running, there is a solution
    I already informed sounddevices and they told me they didn't know this..........

  • HT201365 How do I see the apps I have previously downloaded after the 7.02 update on iPhone?

    I have just updated my iPhone 4S with the 7.02 update. All of the apps I have previously downloaded are no longer showing on my phone. Are they stored anywhere in a file or do I have to download everything from the beginning? It's a bit frustrating that nothing is mentioned about this in the update.
    Any help gratefully received - things like whatsapp will be painful to get everyone's details again.
    Many thanks

  • Garageband takes longer to load after the 5.2 update

    I've found that Garageband '08 does not load correctly with the 5.2 update. Apparently, Garageband takes up to a minute or longer to load During this time, the initialization window is active, the Finder acts somewhat slower, and Garageband is listed as unresponsive in the Dock. Usually, it loads after a long period of time, and works, but once I quit GB, it has to load up for a long time again. I've seen in other threads that external iSight cameras and other audio-related peripherals can by the cause of this, but I do not use my FireWire iSight camera with my MBP, nor do I have any external speakers and whatnot. Right now, I just have Office 2008 installed alongside the other applications.
    My question is what files, if any are conflicting with GB, should I look for? Or what would fix the problem as a whole? I understand that there were some other topics about this issue, but I don't think anyone has mentioned any tips in the past few days. I use GB a lot, so I could use some assistance. Any help would be appreciated.
    -MacUser

    Since I end up waiting at least 30 seconds to 2 minutes or so for GB to open, I need to figure out if I should just reinstall OS X with the restore disks and leave it at that until a fix arrives... I'd rather not though. Apple, come on, release a patch or some sort of fix for it!
    I did try to recreate the problem by using a FireWire iSight but even after doing that and fixing it, nothing changed. I saw in one thread that some people have GB working correctly for them while others do not, so surely there is something somewhere wreaking havoc with GB. This is really odd.

  • Car Stereo No Longer Recognizes iPhone after iOS 7.1 Update

    I connect my iPhone to my car stereo with via USB (the stereo doesn't have bluetooth) and now after the iOS 7.1 update, it no longers works in my car. My stereo displays an error message of 'iPod err' when I connect it. I've used this same car stereo and USB cable to connect my iPhone for years without any issues, until the 7.1 update a couple days ago.
    Anyone else having this issue? This is real frustrating.

    In another thread on this issue, Brendan writes:
    Turns out restarting my car and/or rebooting my iphone "fixed" the issue. Apparently this was unrelated to the iOS 7.2 upgrade. Honda + iPhone has been rock solid (even if the Honda Fit UI is terrible), so I'm not sure what to make of this problem. Maybe a glitch? Who knows.
    Here is the URL for that thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25211736?ac_cid=tw123456#25211736
    His suggestion worked for me: turn off your car, completely shut-off your phone and let it sit a few minutes. Then reboot phone and start car and try again.
    Good luck!

  • TS3276 after 10.6.8 update I can no longer receive email

    I can no longer receive email after 10.6.8 update. I also just moved to iCloud. Can anyone help me?

    What changed, before you could no longer save image attachments to iPhoto?
    Did you install new software or upgrade to newer versions?  Which version of iPhoto are you using?
    The "Save to iPhoto" feature has been missing for some iPhoto versions. I do not remember exactly when it vanished, but it is back with iPhoto 9,6 and MacOS X 10.10.2.
    As  a work-around - you can drag photo attacuments from your mail to the iPhoto icon in the Dock to save them to iPhoto.

  • DVD export broken after 10.0.1 update

    A project which I have previously exported to DVD in Final Cut Pro 10.0 can no longer be exported after 10.0.1 update.
    The symptom is that, athough it plays back fine in the Viewer, after doing Share -> DVD, the burned DVD ends up with these choppy sections where it loops the same 0.3 seconds or so over and over. This occurs after about 4 minutes of playback (it is an 8 minute video).
    I've burned multiple DVDs, and deleted the projects render files and re-rendered, and tried multiple DVD players, all to no avail.
    This is my first attempt to burn a DVD since applying the update from App Store, which is why I surmise the update may be involved.
    Visually it looks a lot like a disc with a bad scratch where it gets in a loop. But as far as I can tell, Final Cut Pro is actually burning the DVD fine, and it is actually writing the same 0.3 second of video over and over. That is, if I put it into a DVD player, I can fast forward from 03:00 to 07:00, and it is still looping the same snippet of video.
    Has anybody seen this problem? Any advice for how to fix. Thanks.

    This may or may not be related, but its worth mentioning as it relates to what may be a change in the update. I did a test export "Share" > "DVD..." on a project. It worked very well. DVD played just fine on a few devices.
    Same project after the update and it fails to share a DVD now. It opens the Share Monitor app and after a few seconds FCPX shows me this:
    First, lets take a moment to appreciate the inherent humor in FCPX telling me I've failed. Funny. Moving on...
    Restarted FCPX - no change.
    Deleted "Shared Items" folder, in my FCP Project folder - no change.
    Restarted Lion - no change.
    Realization iLife in Lion no longer comes with iDVD - not happy.
    Any advice?

    I can no longer buy, download, or update apps/iTunes without being asked for apple ID and billing information. Even if apps are free or updating I'm asked for billing information. It's been like this for a couple of weeks after the purchase of a movie off iTunes and the purchase was successful but afterwards my App Store and iTunes stopped working properly.

  • Epson printer driver no longer working after 10.4.11 update

    It seems that my original Epson driver for my Stylus Photo 750 is no longer working after my latest Tiger update. The system does recognise it but shows an exclamation mark behind it and refuses to print with it (the document stays in the waiting line forever). Reinstalling as well as repairing permissions didn´t help. Fortunately the Gimp Epson driver is still working but I have no access to my coloursync profiles with this driver.
    I know that many printer drivers need to be rewritten for Leopard (one of the reasons I didn´t update yet) but it is not understandable why problems happen with a Tiger update.
    Does anyone know a workaround?
    Thanks very much
    Wolfgang

    I just discovered a similar problem. I have an old Epson SC3000 and under 10.4.11 my computer doesn't communicate with the printer. It's an AppleTalk printer, connected via Ethernet. I tried bypassing my network switch and connected it directly to the Mac-- no go. I then rebooted into 10.3.9 and printing works fine.
    I downloaded the driver from Epson and installed it in 10.4.11. When I try to add the printer in the Printer Setup Utility, the machine just hangs-- can't force quit the utility and eventually the Finder even stops responding. It takes a hard reboot to clear up.
    I can't say whether or not printing worked in earlier versions of 10.4. I haven't been using 10.4 for very long, and I rarely use the SC3000.

  • I downloaded the latest Firefox security update and my computer will no longer access the internet in any fashion, despite the fact that I'm still connected to the internet. Other browsers no longer work either.

    Immediately after I downloaded the latest firefox security update my computer will no longer access the internet. I still have a fine wireless connection but Firefox, Internet Explorer, Itunes, and every other program will no longer access the internet, saying there is a connection error. I even tried restoring my system to a previous date but it said that a security program was preventing it from doing so.

    What's the security program called? Is it '''Win 7 Security''' by any chance? There's a rogue AV app that will prevent internet access by that name. It comes in many different flavours, but it's basically the same product with different names depending on the operating system its aimed at. See screenshot.
