Mac OSX SUS - Why aren't the latest updates offered for some software
For instance, on my sus, Quicktime 7.6.4 is the latest version offered for leopard. 7.6.6 is available on Apple's site. Is there actually a 7.6.6 update others can see on their sus, or is this a universal issue - and why aren't the latest updates available?
Thanks
I just checked my 10.6.3 SUS server at it appears to have that Quicktime 7.6.6 update listed. The size is listed as 68.5 MB and the post date is 03/30/10. My SUS Server Admin interface shows a "Last Check" time of Apr 13, 2010 3:00:00 AM.
I have wiped and reinstalled my SUS server several times dealing with the "missing 10.6.3" updates bug reported many times in these forums so that may be why my server is displaying the Quicktime 7.6.6 update.

What is the latest update available for Mac OSX 10.5.8 that will allow me to get the latest update for iTunes. I really need to update my iPhone and CAN'T!! GRRRR!!!
Minimally you need Snow Leopard or greater:
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 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.
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
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?

How to find out what the latest update is for something from apple's site?
i've never been able to do this, and has been a recurring problem for many years:
how can you, using apple's web site -- presumably the support or downloads section -- find out what the latest update for/of a certain product is?
without going into the details, the software update app is of no use to me.
for example, i have a airport extreme base station 54 mbps. how do i go about finding out what it's latest software is? do such products not have a web page which has the latest update linked to from it?
why is it so hard, impossible i find, to find out what the latest software is?
any pointers much appreciated. (i'm not particularly looking for the answer to "what't the latest update for a airport extreme base station 54 mbps?" but a general method for finding out the latest update for anything using apple's web site)
thanks very much.If you use the Advance Search function:
http://search.info.apple.com/
you can filter results to give downloads for the search words airport extreme base station. The return will be in date order from newest to oldest. Yo ucan also designate word pairs of groups to narrow the search. -

Why doesn't the latest update of Adobe Flash work well?
Well for me it doesn't.
This is my 3rd time downloading it, it'll eventually stop working again like it did the first two times and I'm going to have to reinstall it again.
I went to see if I still had it by going to: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
I see the moving red dot, but in step two, everything in red is blurry/faded.
Shows which version I have, but I can't find it anywhere on my computer. I have the latest version.
Also every website that I visit that supports flash tells me to update to the newest version, which I ALREADY HAVE.

Why won't the latest update Jan 14 install on my PC?
I have been using itunes for years and have never had any problems with it. I was advised by itunes today that a new update was available which I routinely tried to install. However the update failed with the message "Runtime Error" Program:C:\Program Files (x86) iTunes\iTunesHelper.exe R6034 An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information. Unfortunately I have no idea what this means. I tried uninstalling Itunes and downloading it again from the apple website. It seemed to download OK! but when I tried to open it I received the same message as before.I am now stuck with hundreds of songs, TV & movies purchased from apple with no means of playing them on my PC. Any assistance would be appreciated. I am running Windows 7 and have an i5 processor and a 1gb Nvidia graphics card installed. Is it my PC or an issue with the latest version of itunes?
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Why Won't The Latest Update for iCloud Install?
Hi.
Apple keeps trying to update iCloud, but even after updating iTunes, QuickTime, and my iPhone successfully, the iCloud update still won't install. It bombs out at the end in the "validating installation" step, and says there is something wrong with the installer file, and rolls back the attempted installation. This keeps happening with the automatic update, wither I let it run automatically or select the "download only" option and then run the update myself. And, this happens when I go to the iCloud website and download the latest version, to try to manually install that.
How can I get a good copy of the iCloud update package?
Thanks,
CalenHey calenfromalbuquerque,
I see that you’re having some issues with an attempted update to iCloud Control Panel for Windows. Since this is happening when you are attempting to update iCloud Control Panel through the automatic update process and when attempting to manually update the program, this issue could possibly stem from interference with security software on your computer. I have an article for you that addresses this issue and has some troubleshooting steps for you to try in order to resolve it:

Why isn't the SD option working for some tv shows?
For convenience sake, I download a lot of tv shows, and I have always had the option of choosing SD or HD. For some shows (for example, Devious Maids) it will only let me choose HD now, though I have bought it in SD before. Most of the shows are still available in SD on Amazon, but I prefer iTunes. Anybody else experiencing this and does anyone have an explanation?
Either your words are not 3D layers or your Composition is set to Front View. You must be looking at the Active Camera view to see what the camera moves will look like when rendered.
If that doesn't solve your problem then select the camera layer and the text that is not moving, press the U key twice to reveal all modified properties and send us a full resolution screenshot by dragging it into the Reply field on this forum. -
The Secuna Online Scanner reports that Flash10b.ocx in directory C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\Macromed\Flash\ should be replaced by version 10.0.32.18 even after I run the update installer pointed to by Secunia. I would note that there is no C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\Macromed\Flash\ directory on my system. The Flash10b.ocx file is located in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\ directory and is still version 10.0.22.87 according to the properties dialog for the file. I should note that Firefox is my default web browser but of course IE is installed and working.
I assumed that the updated file would also be Flash10b.ocx but it appears that it becomes Flash10c.ocx and I did not notice the additional file.

Has anyone tried REAL VNC client for Mac OSX? Is it worth the money?
Has anyone tried REAL VNC client for Mac OSX? Is it worth the money?
you should not be getting that many crashes and unlike others here i don't see any strong reason to go to 7.2 other than to get to 7.2.1. i very strongly suspect you have dodgy AU's (probably around 218 of them) and if you have a look at your crash log it should show you why you are crashing. if you see an AU in the crash log it is telling you it is causing headaches. my guess is that upgrading is not going to solve your problems.
just so you know, if everything is running as it should be logic will hardly ever crash. post up the crashed thread from your crash log next time it happens. also make sure that you have the proapp kit latest version.
i know its deeply frustrating when things are going pear shaped. everyone but everyone feels that the stupid thing should just work and gets the over-whelming feeling that apple is supposed to make products that just work, that we paid good money for that level reliability and if it's going to act like this we might just as well have stayed with cheaper PC's. reality is, once you start throwing thrid party's into the mix it is really hard to keep control of reliabillity. if you took logic back to zero 3rd party plugs and in built audio, it would take fanatical fundamentalist to crash the thing. (having said that - i reckon i could) -
Why is my iPod not syncing to iTunes when i have the latest update?
Seems, iTunes can't read your backup anymore. Copy the backup folder to a safe place before you delete the latest backup from the list in iTunes/Preferences/Devices
The folder where your backup data is stored changes depending on the computer's operating system. Since iTunes only keeps one backup per device, you should ensure the backup folder is included in your periodic data backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.
copied from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
After you deleted the backup from the list, try again to sync.
