Missing packages in Software Update

Hello,
I wanted to report a problem with software update. We have multiple different T540p models here at work, some are i7s and some are i5s. We do a fresh clean install of Windows to remove all of the bloatware, then run system update to fetch all of the drivers. The i7 models pickup all of the drivers fine, while the i5 models are missing some software packages. I believe system update works by associating your machine type/id with the backend. It will then give you a list of all of the drivers/software required for your system.
The only missing package I noticed is the Hotkeys Features Integration with 8.1 . I know this can be downloaded manually but wanted to pass this along.
Product ID: 20BE004FUS
Serial # isn't needed
Thanks.

When you say "FN Key Manager", are you talking about Hotkeys Features Integration, or something else?
Are you deploying Win7 or Win8.1?

Change deployment package for software updates

Hi there
Currently we have different deployment packages and software update groups based on year, product, etc.
In the near future i'd like to rearange our software deployment process in configuration manager 2012:
1x Deployment Package for all updates
1x "Full" Software Update Groups with all updates in it. Additional to that we'll create a "Diff" Software Update Group at the Patchday and merge the updates later via edit membership in the "Full" Software Update Group.
Are the following steps which i would perform correct?
1. Select all updates which are deployed and not expired and not superseeded
2. Create a new Software Update Group "Full"
3. Select the new Software Update Group --> Download --> Create my new deployment package
4. Deploy the new software update group to my collections
5. Delete the obsolete software update groups / deployment package
6. Delete the old updates source folders on our filer.
I current don't know if the redownload process let the updates "forget" the old deployment package. With the above described steps i should get rid of all expired and superseeded updates.
Thanks for any advice :-)
Regards,
Simon

That is correct they only receive and install the updates they require, but don't confuse the metadata and deployments with the updates themselves. They will still receive the metadata and the policies for every update you deploy to them and that's where
the problem lies. Each and every update assigned to a client (using a deployment) has it's own policy which of course must be downloaded by the client and stored in WMI causing the bloat. Note that I haven't experienced this first-hand but am relying on the
accounts of others here in the forums but to me, if there is any chance of this being an issue, I would avoid it.
For Update Groups, just a few categories is sufficient to break things up and I typically do three: workstations, server, office. These are often on different patching schedules anyway so it makes sense to have three separate ADRs for them anyway.
For packages, I typically organize based on the calendar creating a new package every 3-6 months with the package containing all updates. There's really no need to divide the package up by product unless you have DPs dedicated to a specific product. Note
that pre-R2, to change the package an ADR referenced you had to use PowerShell -- it's been added into the GUI in R2 though.

Several Updates Missing from "All Software Updates"

We've been using SCCM 2012 to patch our systems for a few months now and I thought everything was going smoothly until we got an audit back from out Security office about our boxes missing several patches, listed below.
So I go back to the SCCM console to check whether or not the patches were listed in the "All Software Updates" group and also the custom Software Update Group that I was deploying to the systems. And to my surprise, none of the updates were
listed. The only Software Update Point Classifications we have
not enabled are Tools, the rest are enabled. I've also verified that the Software Update Point Products have Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, R2, 2012, and 2012 R2 which encompass the OS of the servers that were found to be deficient.
Why are these updates not listed in SCCM?
How can we ensure they get listed in SCCM and applied to our servers?
How can we prevent this from happening in the future?
2750841: An IPv6 readiness update is available
2775511: An enterprise hotfix rollup is available
2732673: "Delayed write failed" error message when .pst files are stored on a network file server
2728738: You experience a long logon time when you try to log on to a Windows client that uses roaming profiles
2862973: Update for deprecation of MD5 hashing algorithm for Microsoft root certificate program
2574819: An update is available that adds support for DTLS
2894854: An update is available - .NET Framework 4.5.1
2894844: Description of the security update for the .NET Framework 3.5.1
HOTFIX : RDS-based applications crash in Windows 7 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (x64)

Hi,
I can't say I have checked all of the updates that you post here but the ones I did check and I normally deploy as well are not published in Windows Update and that is why you don't see them i either WSUS och Configuration Manager. They are Hotfixes and
not updates that are published there. So you need to download them and either import them using SCUP or deploy them using normal Software Distribution.

MISSING PICTURES AFTER SOFTWARE UPDATE

I recently did a software update on my HTC Thunderbolt and now I notice that I am missing some of my pictures. It's the ones I saved to my SD card from my messages. Is there any way for me to retrieve them???

Thank you to the community for your engagement. Your help is very much appreciated.
sabs318, are those the only pictures missing? Are the pictures taken from your camera saved on the SD card? Have you checked if they are saved on the device memory?
Did you try acraftlady's suggestion?
Please let me know.
Thank you,

Missing emails after Software Update

Hi all,
I seem to missing a large chunk of emails in my Inbox after a recent Software Update. This is only in my Inbox. My Sent mail seems fine. Before the update, my Inbox had around 8000 emails. Now it hovers around 600.
I looked at my Home>Library>Mail>Mailboxes folder. There, it says the size is 110 MB and was last modified on today's date. That tells me all 8000+ emails are still in there, but they just aren't being displayed. I tried Rebuilding the mailbox a while back, but that offered no solution.
Any advice?
Many thanks,
Jon

Powershell, Deployment Packages and Software Updates OH MY!

Ok, so I snooped around and was not able to find an answer to my question so here goes.
I'm building an automated process where Orchestrator runbooks will automate the entire process of downloading updates, deploying to test groups, waiting for an approved RFC then deploying the updates. That's the 10k foot level view.
My question revolves around the process of downloading software updates and placing them into a package. It has been suggested that the Save-CMSoftwareUpdate does this, but reviewing the doc I am less inclined to believe this statement. Was hoping
to get lucky and have someone reply that they have done this and here are the interesting parts.
This will all be performed via powershell commands with no direct user interaction at all. So some powershell script that pops up the download software updates wizard will not work for me.
Thanks in advance for any pearls of wisdom around this,
Jim

Ok, I know that we are playing 20 questions here, but I needed the first part to scope the next set of questions.
You say that the approvals are coming from an external source...are you wanting to automate the parsing of the external source or are you planning on putting the approvals into a WSUS group for it to download the update content? Keep in mind here
that the UpdateID that I am referring to is a GUID and not something that someone is likely to give you in a human readable document. The problem with Bulletin IDs is that they will likely apply to a number of operating systems and architectures.
It would be nice if you could get them to populate the approvals into the computer group directly to alleviate the ambiguity. Of course you have to remember that someone has to keep it cleaned up.
You can query WSUS for all of the UpdateIDs for a given computer group.
Beyond this, you will now need to use the WSUS APIs and may want to take a look at the IUpdate interface:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.updateservices.administration.iupdate_members(v=vs.85).aspx and call the GetInstallableItems method, which will return a list of InstallableItem:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.updateservices.administration.installableitem_members(v=vs.85).aspx each item will have an ID, which is the ID that you will need to publish into your update package; it also has a Files property, which
is a list of files for the installable item, and is of type UpdateFile:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.updateservices.administration.updatefile_members(v=vs.85).aspx. These are the files that will get published into the update package. Each update file will have a FileUri property, which will
provide you with a web link to download the file. If you are a bit more enterprising, you can mangle the FileUri into a UNC path, so that you can just copy the file directly.
You should now create the update list. In the process of creating the update list, you will want to create a table of UpdateID to CI...you will need this when you create your advertisement.
Once you have gathered all of the update content, and their associated InstallableItem identifiers, you are ready to tell configuration manager to populate the update package with the installable items. Interesting here is that you are dealing with
the installable items and not directly with the updates. Configuration manager will associate the InstallableItems with the appropriate updates to be shown in the interface.
Once you get the package populated, you will need to create the advertisements to the appropriate collection. By the way, this is done on an individual update basis. Remember that update lists, update packages and update advertisements have
no direct relationship to one another, although a stronger bond was created in 2012.
Simple stuff huh?!?
Remember that Configuration Manager will not pull metadata across for updates that are already superseded, so you may not always have a one to one reference.
Keeping your packages cleaned up, removing extraneous update content that is no longer needed, is a completely different subject.
It would be greatly appreciated if you would mark any helpful entries as helpful and if the entry answers your question, please mark it with the Answer link.

Missing search option (software update 1.3)

Hey-
When I go into the music category of other people's iPods, they have a feature that allows them to search through their music by scrolling to a letter and typing it in by pushing the center button. It seems that my iPod doesn't have it. I've restored it and such to try to get the feature to install, but to no avail. I have the software update 1.3 and the model number is MA147LL. Please help me to figure out how to get the search feature!
Thank you!

Not all iPods have this feature. I believe it was only late 2006 and later versions of the fifth-gen that actually have this feature.

Missing contacts after software update

Contacts in iphone 4S disappeared over night after software update. It is only showing contacts from my social sites such as facebook.

Did you back up to the cloud, itunes, or email (like hotmail) before you updated? If so, they are easily recoverable. If not, then bye bye.

Facebook App is missing after the Software Update.

hi i've nokia asha 205 i recently updated my device software after that my inbuilt facebook software is deleted. after restoring backup it shows some file which are not supported by device
Moderator's note: The subject was amended.

Hi rj25, you can download the application right back to your phone thru our Nokia Store. Just go to the "Store" icon on your phone's Menu and search for the Facebook application from there and download it.

Creating Software Update Packages - Best Practice?

I am setting up our SCCM 2012 R2 environment to begin using it for Windows Updates, however I'm not sure 100% the best method of setting it up.
Currently my plan is to break out the deployment packages by OS, but I read\told that I should avoid creating to many dynamic deployment packages, as every time it changes all the computers will re-scan that package. So What I want to do is create
various packages for OS and years, so I would have a package that contains all updates for Windows 7, older then January 31, 2013 (assuming the package doesn't have 1000+ updates), and are not superseded\Expired. Then I would create Packages for the 2014
monthly updates each month, then at the end 2014, combine them all in 1 package, and restart the process for 2015. Is this a sound plan or is there a better course of action?
If this the best practice method, is there any way to automatically create these packages? I tried the Automatic Deployment Rules, but I can not set a Year of release, only the a time frame of the release,(older then 9 Months), unless I am missing
something. The only way I can see doing this is going into All Software Updates, and filtering on my requirements, and then manually creating the package, but this would less desirable, as after each year I would like to remove the superseded and expired
without having to recreate the package.
Mark.

First, please learn what the different objects are -- not trying to be rude, just stating that if you don't do this, you will have fundamental issues. Packages are effectively meaningless when it comes to deploying updates. Packages are simply a way of grouping
the binary files so they can be distributed to DPs and in-turn made available to clients. The package an update is in is irrelevant. Also, you do not "deploy" update packages and packages are not scanned by clients. The terminology is very important because
there are implications that go along with it).
What you are actually talking about above are software update groups. These are separate and distinct objects from update packages. Software Update groups group updates (not the update binaries) into logical groups that can be in-turn deployed or used for
compliance reporting.
Thus, you have two different containers that you need to be concerned about, update packages and update groups. As mentioned, the update package an update is in is pretty meaningless as long as the update is in a package that is also available to the clients
that need it. Thus, the best way (IMO) to organize packages is by calendar period. Yearly or semi-annually usually works well. This is done more less to avoid putting all the updates into a single package that could get corrupted or will be difficult to deploy
to new DPs.
As for update groups, IMO, the best way is to create a new group every month for each class of products. This typically equates to one for servers, one for workstations, and one for Office every month. Then at the end of every year (or some other timeframe),
rolling these monthly updates into a larger update group. Keep in mind that a single update group can have no more than 1,000 updates in it though. (There is no explicit limit on packages at all except see my comments above about not wanting one huge package
for all updates.)
Initially populating packages (like 2009, 2010, 2011, etc) is a manual process as is populating the update groups. From then on, you can use an ADR (or really three: one for workstations, one for servers, and one for Office) that runs every month, scans
for updates released in the past month, and creates a new update group.
Depending upon your update process, you may have to go back and add additional deployments to each update group also, but that won't take too long. Also, always QC your update groups created by an ADR. You don't want IE11 slipping through if it will break
your main LOB application.

Software Update not finding missing loops

I've just updated my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6.8) from iLife 09 to iLife 11.
In Garageband most of the loops are missing (greyed out). When I click on one I'm given the option of downloading later or now. When I choose 'now' it opens Software Update which searches for updates and tells me that all my software is up to date. If I click on a missing look again the message says that the software instrument or Apple Loop is currently being installed and that I should open Software Update for additional information.
How do I install all the missing loops if Software Update is telling me all my programs are up to date?

What happened to the "Security Update for Microsoft Word 2010 (KB2899519) 32-Bit Edition" software update?

When I deployed my software updates this particular one shows that there is some hash mismatch. So I deleted it from the package, the software update group, and the data library in the content library on my DP.
Then I wanted to re-download it and re-deploy it, but it does not show up at all in the "All Software Updates" section.
Am I missing something here?
Thanks

I did click that bar, Peter, and it still does not show that update.
Is this just me, or is this really odd?
I was able to successfully re-deploy this update by going into the update group created by the ADR and downloading that update in my 2014 package that it needed it to go into (the ADR that I currently have is for my 2015 package that will start running in
January, but when I ran it, it went into the 2015 package). Then I right clicked on the software update and added it to my DEC 2014 update group by selecting the "Edit Membership" option and then I checked on the "DEC 2014" box.
After that, I just updated the DP and then ran the necessary client actions from the Right-Click Tools from Now Micro on my collection and it installed just fine.
The only update that shows up in the "All Software Updates" section is the 64-bit version of KB2899519, not the 32-bit that I am looking for.
But, I would really LOVE to know why this update is not showing up in the "All Software Updates" section.
Thanks

Where are the software update files located?

Because I get charged for my download traffic (don't ask--one of the drawbacks of living in the country), I set my software update preference to download the latest 10.5.4 update. That way I can then transfer the update file to our other computers. However, I can't find where Apple sticks the file.
Thanks,
John

Hello John,
That ability to "Install and keep package" in Software Update, doesn't work.
It use to be an extremely useful thing, but now no longer works in Leopard. Instead you will have to download the Update from the Apple site and then you will be able to keep it, and only use Software Update to tell you want you need.
In 10.3, not sure about 10.4 I could collect all packages, which I would then burn onto a CD. But alas, no more.
