My OS X Update 10.8.3 will not complete even with a restart

I dont know why this update won't complete. The computer restarts and once it starts up again the update is still there and tells me to restart again.

Download the update from here and install it. 10.8.3 Combo Update.

Software update notification (red circle) will not disappear even after download

Hi all, just a quick question. I updated my software last night after seeing the red, circular "1" update notification over the settings menu. Everything downloaded normally on both my ipad and iphone, but for some reason, the notification circle will not disappear on the iphone. I have synced it with my laptop, turned it off and on, and even reset all the phone's settings but that pesky red circle remains. I have tried just about everything I can think of outside of restoring it to factory settings and starting over. Honestly, I feel it should not come to this. To have to completely wipe my phone and start over because of something as simple as a software update is madness. I know this is a trivial thing to be so annoyed by but I use my phone often and anything out of the ordinary gets irritating quickly. Any advice or info would be much appreciated. Thanks guys!

The quickest way to try to fix it is to download the Mac OS X 10.6.7 Update Combo and manually install the update. It should fill in any missing gaps. I suggest dragging & dropping the Mac App Store into the Trash before the installation to let the update install a fresh version of the MAS.

It will not open even with a fresh install

''locking this thread as duplicate, please continue at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026778 /questions/1026778]''
Firefox has not opened for a while. I did a fresh install on a windows 8.1 64 bit operating system and the darn thing still will not open. I am not happy about this.

I'm re-installing from a cd. I have upgraded since Aperture 1.0!! When I use the install from Aperture 3.0, it won't open my library (because it has been updated to a newer version of Aperture). So, I tried to open Aperture with the sample library on the disc. No go. States I don't have permissions.
I updated the re-installed version of Aperture 3.0 to the current 3.2.3. I still CANNOT open Aperture. I seem to be getting the same error message.
I have fixed permissions and all. My Mac is up to date. I don't know what else to do.
I have a MacBook Air and Aperture works great on it. Problem is my huge library is difficult to transfer or duplicate since it is so large. I think I will just take out my hard drive from my Mac Pro and put it in a desktop enclosure.
I can't even open Aperture from my Vault.

My antivirus found and removed a virus called Hijacker.DosPop_Toolbar, and now Firfox browser will not open, even with uninstall and reinstall?

I have uninstalled version 8 and tried to go back to an earlier version, but browser still will not open.

Delete the Program Files for Firefox and install a freshly downloaded Firefox_setup file.

When syncing after recent update, sync is stuck at "Step 4 of 4" "Waiting for changes to be applied" and will not complete, even after hours. How can this be fixed?

I completed the most recent software update for both iTunes and iPhone recently. I am now trying to sync my iPhone to add newly purchased audiobooks and the sync remains stuck at "Step 4 of 4" with the message "Waiting for changes to be applied" I have tried everything to correct this. When sync is cancelled a failure to sync message is generated. Any ideas????

Alright, so I reset my computer and suddenly it then recovered. Other times it wouldn't recover after resetting the computer, so I have no idea how it happened. I just restarted the computer lots of time and finally it worked.
Okay, back to square one. Now to transfer music, I tried my previous acknowledgable solutions but they didn't work. The iPod touch does not feature a hard-disk mode, and windows media player doesn't support iPods.
I've tried multiple programs to transfer music but none of them work properly and keep giving me error codes. So my iPod still gets stuck at Step 4: Waiting for changes to be applied or whatever it said.
Thanks in advance ._. (Please help)
p.s - Apple is useless. If I don't get steady answers tomorrow I'm going to end up calling them and get this problem fixed first hand. Second hand? I don't know, over the **** phone.

IPhone will not update (error code 1) will not restore even in DFU mode (error code 1)

I bought the iPhone 4S from a friend, and I came to wiping it manually from the handset, no problems found however during the initial steps the iPhone was unable to validate on the apple servers (with the carrier stuck on searching). So, I plugged the phone into my trusty laptop installed Itunes fresh and proceeded to restore. The process gets to the later part of the validation and throws up an Error Code 1.
I'm aware (from searches across the internet) that error code 1 is typically found in phones with tampered hardware/software e.g. Jailbreak, unlock etc. My friend is not tech savvy and doesnt have a clue about these things so I'm sure the phone is 'as is'.
So i proceeded to troubleshoot the issue:
I edited my hosts file to point to the apple validation server (and checked it allowed connections to gs.apple.com within my browser - successful).
Now as the handset is stuck in recovery mode (with the usb and apple logo) I tried to restore via regular Recovery mode - no sucess (error 1)
Entered the phone into DFU mode (which, in essence ALL of google preaches is the way to restore regardless of issue) same error occurred.
So i looked into 3rd party applications that could force it to restore or perhaps allow a functional end product.
Redsnow (latest edition only provides restore for up to iOS 6.1.somethingorother) that produced a dead end.
Pangu restore facility (latest edition for iOS 7/some 8 models) hanged at the same place as the apple loader.
I've tried flushing my DNS cache, and verified the Date/time on my computer and router is correct.
I refuse to accept the phone is nonfunctional but am rapidly running out of ideas as how to
a) restore it to the iOS it initially had
b) update it forcefully and have iOS 8
c) install a custom rom in the hope some fuctionality exists enough to restore it again.
Please inform me of any suggestions you might have,
regards Jack.
PS. Further information; This has been attempted on 2 seperate windows workstations both running windows 8.1 up to date.
The USB cable is an unofficial one but has caused no issues in the past on another iphone that ive restored.

Do you have the latest version of iTunes? Did you check for anti-virus software? One of the sections talks about interference from anti-virus software and firewalls. Also, you should not have to make any changes to your Host file unless your computer has been used to jailbreak a phone. I worry because you were using a number of software applications that are designed for jailbreaking devices. Excerpt from this support document. Get help with iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
Check for hardware issues
Related errors: 1, 3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
These errors mean that your device or computer might have a hardware issue that stops the update or restore from completing.
Check that your security software and settings aren't blocking your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
Make sure that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

App Store updates are frozen and will not complete the installation.

I've tried resetting... tried signing out of itunes and signing back in. I have all of these apps and games that want me to update... i click on them... they say installing... but the status bar does not move.

That's an indication that you have apps installed that were purchased with a different ID. Either sign in with the credentials used to purchase them so you can update them, or delete them and re-download them using your ID.

Firefox will not open even with new profile

When I attempt to open Firefox nothing happens on screen. I have created a new profile still no joy. In the Windows Task Master Process window Firefox.exe is shown. I have attempted to update Firefox no joy I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox still no joy. I know that it is working in the background but where and how can I bring it to the foreground

Hi cor-el, and thanks
Have checked the Firewall that is ok and have allowed any mention of Firefox to have Internet acess , still no joy, I am using Zone Alarm.
I do not get any messages when I attempt open Fire Fox just the browser does not open. I can see in the Task Manager that Firefox has started and is sitting idle but no Browser window.
I End Task in the Task Manager before I attempt to start Fire Fox again after I have made any changes such as the changes to Zone Alarm as mentioned before. Then I attempt to start Firefox again and still no joy.

Time Machine will not complete backup with WD My Passport for Mac

I am on 10.10.3 and am trying to backup up this particular machine for the first time. I had a 1TB WD My Passport for Mac that worked fine on my older Macbook Pro (which has not been updated to 10.10.3) and have been slow in getting around to backing up this new machine. I tried the 1TB after clearing space and it wasn't working. Figured it must be something with that drive, so I bought a new one (needed more space anyway) and just received a new 2TB WD My Passport for Mac. Tried the update again via Time Machine and it went through the entire process only to tell me it couldn't complete. The drive has something on it now because it doesn't have the full 2TB free and in finder the file says "in progress" at the end of the file name under backup. Please help. I need to backup this machine and now think it is Apple related and not drive related.

Apps will not download, even with full 4G service

What the crap? I can't download any apps from the Playstore. I've got 9 app updates, and I've tried to download a few new ones, and none of them even started to download. Anyone know what the deal is?

Oh wow. That's pretty strange, clboatright. It does help us to confirm it's not something on our network stopping the download since you were also getting the error on WiFi. We haven't given up. Please try:
Settings>Data Usage> make sure Mobile Data is on and limit mobile data usage is off. Also press Menu and make sure Restrict Background Data is off.
**then return to home screen**
Settings>Application Manager>All>tap Play Store then clear cache (not data) and force stop
**then return to home screen**
Settings>Application Manager>All>tap Google Service Framework and clear data (not cache) and force stop
Then reboot your phone. If the trouble continues, a full hard reseet http://vz.to/LfV00q would be the next step. Please keep us posted.

Address Book Opens Automatically and will not close (even with Force Quit)

The address book automatically opens at times and I cannot close it. Even with a force quit, I cannot close it. It takes up over 80% of CPU cycles when it opens automatically. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks
Robby

This is happening to me too. Has occurred on MBP 17" about six or seven times over the past couple of weeks. Have not been able to replicate it. But recently suspect that it may be related to auto syncing and/or syncing my iPhone 3G.
Anyone else have an idea?

Visio 2013 32-bit trial version will not install even with other 32-bit MS products only.

Trying to load MS Visio 2013 Trial to determine if it works so I can purchase full version.
Environment: MacBook Pro, w/ VMWare Fusion 4, Windows 7, running only MS Project 32-bit on the VMWare side. MS Office is not installed only MS Project.
Downloaded Visio 2013 Trial img file and attempted to install. Received 64-bit conflict with 32-bit software error message. Deleted Visio 2013 64-bit version and redownloaded Visio 2013 Trial img this time in 32-bit. Tried to install but the same 64-bit
conflict message is appearing. As the only software I have installed is MS Project 32-bit it does not appear that there should be a conflict. I have scanned TechNet and Googled to try and understand how to determine and resolve the conflict but
there are no threads to address this specific problem.
P.S. I cannot uninstall and reinstall MS Project as I spent hours on the phone with Microsoft and VMWare Support to get it installed the first time so I don't want to mess with an existing environment that is finally working.
Microsoft online chat recommended calling MS Support and they have now sent me to you. Can you please help?

Dear Smith_123:
Thank you for your reply. However, Office had never been previously on the OS as it was never purchased. I do have Office for Mac 2011 but that is 32 bit and is not on the VMWare / Windows side of the machine. But even if I had, I would not know
how to clean up the residual file or registry keys without assistance.
After 1 hours and 20 min on the phone last evening and being handed from person to person through literally 9 different people, I finally reached someone that seemed knowledgeable in MS Support. But all they would give me was a circular answer:
We can't help you because it is a Trial Version for which there is no support offered. When I explained I wanted to be sure Visio worked on my machine prior to spending between $300 and $600 on a copy, Support could only say that I would have to purchase it
first before they would give me any help to see if it works. When I offered to purchase it right then since I had finally gotten to someone who appeared as though they could help, he told me that he was Support and not Sales so I would have to go elsewhere
to purchase the product. Very frustrating.
