Mac OS X Combined Update to 10.6.8, Data Image Corrupted on Download? Help Please?

I am trying to update my MacBook to the latest OS X 10.6.8, but once downloaded and the laptop asks to be restarted to complete installation, it installs half way and i am returned with a message that the image data is corrupted. Anyone help or know of this error?
Thank You

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
It could be because of an Internet error. Redownload Mac OS X 10.6.8 from Support webpage > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399

  • Mac OS X combined update can't be saved

    I bought the Snow Leopard upgrade disc from Apple two weeksago and the install went with out a problem. I went to check for updates and there’s a rather large OS X combined update 1.06GB.
    When I start the download I will generally get about haveway through when the following error occurs:
    Mac OS X Combined update cannot be saved.
    It says to check my Internet connection, but I can’t find anything wrong with my Internet connection other than it's slow. I’m using a DSL service from one ofthe worst providers in the country.
    If I restart the download everything that was downloadedprior will be partially gone. The most recent attempt it went from 520MB downloaded now when I restart it’s down to 81MB downloaded.
    Short of me hoofing my iMac to another location is there anyway this update can be downloaded in smaller pieces?

    Are you trying to install the update while on-line? If so, download the update .dmg file  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 and install it off-line. This is the safest way to install system updates, especially if you have dialup or slow-speed connections.
    Another method is to go to a library & take a DVD to download/copy the file.

  • Mac oc 10 combined update issues

    I have updated my software to snow leopard, then checked for update, but when I update the Mac OS 10 combined my computer freaks out

    Is your data backed up?
    How full is your hard drive and how big is it?
    Did you repair permissions?
    Define freaked out.  Does it ask you to restart with four languages?  Does audio not play on all applications?
    Do some applications just quit before even opening?

  • Should I install Mac OS X Combined Update 10.3.9

    I am am totally up to date with all software updates to 10.3.9, but after the last security update safari, mail, itunes and cable internet connection is slow. Cable company says all is operating fully on their end. Repaired permissions-zapped p-ram - reset safari all the basic stuff. A Mac user friend says I should install Mac OS X Combined Update 10.3.9.... Can I do that? Will that possibly help? What else will I need to install after that if anything. I am afraid to install the latest security update that seems to have caused all this.
    Should I install Mac OS X Combined Update 10.3.9 on top of my current 10.3.9 configuration?

    Gman --
    In addition to the great info you've already gotten here,
    1. Can you repair permissions?
    If not, see the sticky post at the top of this discussion topic page.

  • I have just tried to connect my Mac book pro to an LG Plasma TV via an iWires Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable. All I get on my TV is the Mac wallpaper and nothing else. I am missing something really silly, could anyone help please.

    Hi there. I also bought an iWires mini Display port to HDMI cable and have an LG LED/LCD TV. I plugged it in to my MB Pro and followed the very small writing that came in the package and got both audio and video going. You need to change the audio settings from within System Preferences on your Mac to select your TV as the audio output.
    My concern is the data latency - do you experience a delay between moving your mouse on the MBPro and the TV displaying the movement? It is only a fraction of a second, but certainly enough to be annoying, especially in a cable as expensive as the iWire.

  • My files are all there and open in Preview but in Numbers they come up blank. Same in Pages. Any ideas please? My Mac was stopped suddenly by a power cut. Could this be relevant? Help please. Jon Sims

    "My Mac was stopped suddenly by a power cut. Could this be relevant?"
    Sounds very relevant.
    Do you have access to another computer with Numbers installed?
    If so, do your files open properly on that computer?
    If so, then the problem is your computer itself, which is best posted in a different forum.

  • Itunes 10.5.2x64 cannot install on winidows7 laptop.10.5.1x64 worked ok , tried to update now nothing, itunes will just not re-install , any help please!!

    Cannot get itunes 10.5.2x64 to install at all, 10.5.1x64 worked ok  on my Vaio win7 laptop.The update totally screwed everything,
    all I get is "the installer encountered errors before itunes could be configured.errors occured during installation.your system has not been modified."
    Any help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Praise God - I found the solution after hours of work: (1) Uninstall all Apple programs (itunes, Quicktime, Bonjour, .....); (2) Go to "Common Files" and delete all Apple files - this might be difficult for some are locked from you - you may have to change the "Owner" of the file in order to delete it - if that doesn't work "Rename the Apple Follder to something like Apple Old - that's like deleting it.  Then download 10.5 from Apple and away you go - yippee.

  • Mac Pro (2008) Mouse opertational but won't click or open any applications. Help Please!

    Mac Pro (Early 2008) my mouse lets me navigate all over and I can see the arrow and everything but can't click or open any applications. What shall I do? Help PLease!

    I have a very similar problem on a Mac Pro 2010.
    There are 3 Mac Pro's in the office and my apple mouse works perfectly on the other 2 machines, but not mine. On the flip side, he other Apple mice (from the other two Mac Pro's) work perfectly on my machine....?????!?!?
    I've tried the guest account on my Mac and mouse works perfect. But when I log back into my account, the click functionality is gone. I can click on the toolbar (open applications) but I can't click anywhere else (Although I have noticed that I can click tabs in Safari, but it just closes them, it doesn't switch to the tab).
    The only major difference, is my Mac is running Yosemite, and the others are Mavericks and Snow Leopard.
    Any ideas????

    There are several apps in the App Store. Look at them to see what might meet your needs. There is a keynote app that might be best for you.

  • I downloaded the IOS6 update and now it wont connect to my home wifi HELP PLEASE!

    I downloaded the new update and now it wont conect me to my home Wifi PLEASE HELP! when i click to connect with my wifi it brings up this apple page saying" try another search the page i searched for cannot be found" idk what to do!

    Have you tried starting FF in safe mode and then disabling all add-ons and extensions?
    Then restart the browser enabling each add-on one by one. I did this and found that Stumbleupon toolbar was the problem for me as my browser was freezing as soon as I started it and going into not responding but with this currently disabled the browser works fine. Just hope there is an update for Stumble soon.

  • Updated to 10.4.6 and now no internet! Help, please ..

    I have both a G5 and G4-PB on a small network at home. Both were recently "subjected" to the latest updates, 10.4.6 and security-update.
    Now neither computer will connect to the internet over the router - actually, any of two router (a D-Link that I normally use and a Planet that I keep as a backup).
    The funny thing is that the D-Link will correctly ping any internet address from within the browser-based admin tool, but nothing can make the Macs recognize the internet.
    Yet, if I connect either computer directly to my cable-modem, without a router in-between, everything seems to work fine.
    What gives? Can anyone help? This is very, very frustrating.
    Thanks so much to the "guru's" in advance

    The problem seems to have been solved!
    I did a couple of things, and don't know which one was the solution.
    First, I ran Onyx (free download fm versiontracker) both cleaning, maintenance and automatic, with the standard options.
    Then, I shut down and disconnected everything - computer, router and cable-modem.
    Then, in this order, I plugged the computer in to router. Turned on router. Plugged the cable-modem into router. Turned on cable-modem. Plugged router into the computer and, finally, turned on the computer.
    Lo' and behold - the net is back up!

  • Can i use two iphone 4's on my mac usings itunes account but also get different contacts and email accounts...help please

    Hi i two iphones one mine one my wifes.
    We have one mac laptop and one itunes account. is it possible to sync the two iphones on itunes but have two different contacts and email address.
    But i would also like my apps to work on her mobile as i do not want to pay for them twice..

    Yes. There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer. Each device can have its own sync preferences with iTunes on the same computer.
    If both iPhones are synced with the same Address Book under the same computer login account, then the contacts on each iPhone will be the same. With the Address Book on a Mac, you can sync select Address Book Groups only with an iPhone instead of the entire Address Book and all groups. You and/or your wife can create an Address Book Group or multiple Groups to be synced with each other's iPhone only. You can transfer the settings for one email account to one iPhone and the settings for another email account to the other iPhone.
