Mac OS X Update 10.4.5 Combo Vs Mac OS X Update 10.4.5 Delta
What would be the difference between these two installers apart from their size?
Regards,
Daniel
"I have been saying in my posts that Combo will take care of system hiccups / glitches that sequential SUs would not.
Is that correct?"
You are correct in the sense that it appears that users who have installed a Delta update and had some problems have had some success overcoming those problems by reinstalling the Combo Updater. However, this is not a cureall nor does it mean that everyone who uses a Delta updater will have a problem or that all problems will be solved by applying the Combo Updater.
I know this sounds a bit "weasely," but as the commercial once said, "your mileage may vary."

initially i have both 4.5 and 4.6 mail, but have the message of not being able to run my mail. so i followed the instructions and reinstalled Mac OS X Update v10.6.8 combo v1.1 but i cannot proceed to the next step, because
it says my hd does not meet the requirements for this update. and my mail 4.6 is gone, i cant even find it using spotlight.I reinstalled my MAC OS X update 10.6.8 successfully. But when I tried to do the next step which is to reinstall security update 2012-004, I couldn't. When I chose my macintosh hard disk to install it on, my installer said it can't be installed. That this volume does not meet the requirements for this update. Mine is version 10.6.8 is it because its not compatible with my version?

I tried to sync a new ipod to my itunes library, but it said I need to update my itunes version. When I tried to update, it would not let me. Do I need to upgrade my OS system to Leopard then to Lion?
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Snow Leopard General Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
2. 1GB of memory
3. 5GB of available disk space
4. DVD drive for installation
5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
fees may apply.
6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
terms apply.
10.6.8 is needed for full compatibility with the iPod Touch. You can upgrade to Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements, but it is not needed to use your new iPod. -
Hi, I have a 2011 Mac with Os X 10.6.8. I need any Os update ? Txs joe
HHi I have a 2011 Mac with Os X 10.8.1. Need any OS X update .?
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2463 is a guide to where to post. As for upgrading 10.8 is also known as Mountain Lion. You can upgrade to 10.8.5 combo without losing too much compatibility, and that operating system does offer more security updates than under 10.8.1 alone. Verify with any software you do have working that it has been tested under 10.8.5. Tweaks may make some software fail. 10.9 and 10.10 are different enough that I wouldn't upgrade unless you are willing to handle interface changes and greater changes in compatibility. Before upgrading, or installing new software always backup your data: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992

No problem. You have to pay for the next upgrades, just like you paid for the last one.
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.

Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
Model Identifier 5,1 or later

Mac OS X 10.4.6 (64 MB) vs Mac OS X 10.4.6 Combo (140 MB) Installation
What is the difference in the Mac OS X 10.4.6 for PPC (64 MB) versus the
Mac OS X 10.4.6 Combo for PPC (140 MB) other than the download size?
I updated my system with the 64 MB version.
Which one should you use or should you download and use both? (10.4.6) ?
Thanks,
Richard
IMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)Combo updates contain all updated files released since OS 10.4, and will update all versions of 10.4 to 10.4.6.
The Delta (64MB) update only contains files necessary for updating 10.4.5 to 10.4.6.
You do not need to use both. However most people find that using the Combo update is more "thorough" and results in a more stable OS afterwards. I personally always use the Combo update. -

How to to update a friend's 10.8 Mac, who lives out of Internet range?
To to update a friend's 10.8 Mac, who lives out of Internet range, I used to take her downloaded Software Update files on my USB drive. With 10.8.2 her machine now rejects my update files and insists it must have Internet access. How do I help her in future? There are many remote places in Australia where there is no Internet access, not even dialup.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You should be able to update OS X without Internet. As she is running OS X 10.8, download OS X 10.8.2 Combo and OS X 10.8.2 Supplemental Update, copy them to a USB drive and install them in this order. You shouldn't be prompted to connect the computer to the Internet -
10.4.10 update and very strange problem with Mac Mini
Dear All,
I have just updated my Mac Mini Intel and I am having a strange problem.
My Mac Mini has problems booting up. Sometimes I get through the login screen as normal but my wallpaper shows and there are no desktop icons, no dock, no top of screen finder menu bar. Some other times I get stuck in the progress bar of the booting up.
I tried to run utilities from install disk and there were no problems detected.
The VERY STRANGE thing is that several times now as I put my fingertip onto the power button laying it on the button but not pressing it yet (because I would like to shut down the system), the system kicks in and becomes unfrozen!!!
Someone in the 123macmini.com forum says that this problem is related to the airport receiver which is near the power button.
What do you think about it???
MacBook and MacMini Mac OS X (10.4.10)ok, I have found a kind of fix for the problem, although may run a hardware test to check something!.
I unplugged all USB and Firewire devices, I turned off Bluetooth and Airport, reinstalled the 10.4.10 combo update, when it restarted the starting mac osx screen took barely a second or 2 to load (my comment above is becuase from when I first got it on Sunday I noticed it was slow to boot up, also noticed that the screen resoulution I have set does not kick in until I log on, although this may be becuase this mac mini is an intel one). The computer booted up very quickly and I tuend on bluetooth and airport with no issues and plugged all the usb and fireware devices back in. I again turned the airport off and restarted and again it booted up very quickly logged on and swithced the airport back on. I decided to reboot with the sirport on and it got stuck at the end of the os x starting up screen, I waited a few mins switched it off and on again and it booted up fine although slower. I dont mind turning the airport off when I power down as the mac usually stays on anyway. I assume Apple will release a fix for this as a lot of people seem to have the problem so think I will stay put with this for the time being. It was taking a several goes to get to the login screen before but usually got there every few boots. -
I recently did a system update and installed Yosemite on my Mac. Now I am unable to open CS5 at all. The error message I get is this: "To open Adobe Photoshop CS5.1, you need to install legacy Java SE 6 runtime." I have tried downloading this and it still gives me the same mess
In the details it is mentioned that it is an outdated version of Java.
Is this a security risk that i need to live with to get CS5 to run with Yosemite?
Also i need to reject messages from Java in the future about updates, or not?
thx for any input
