OS X 10.5.4 Combined Update Installation Hang

I can't seem to install the 10.5.4 combined update. When I try, it hangs before log in. It goes to "Configuring Installation" but never finishes. Is there a way to install this update? I am on a Macbook.

See Mac OS X 10.5: Software Update stops responding during "Configuring installation" to see if the issue described applies to you, if not the suggested fix.
Alternately, download the 10.5.6 or later combined update manually but before running the installer, check the size of the download to make sure it agrees with the size listed on the combo download page.
Note that once 10.5.6 or later is installed, the issue described should never occur again.

After update installs, hangs at blue screen

I just installed the latest update. The download completed, the update installed and then it rebooted.
On reboot, I get the chime, the Apple shows, the wheel whirls, it changes to the blue screen and then hangs there. I have left it in that condition for an 30 with no progress. I rebooted several times with the exact same results.
Any ideas?

I have the same problem on my MacPro but discovered a work around.
This works for me.
Powerdown then powerup with your finger on the eject button on the keyboard. My tray come out, then it will boot! Don't remove your finger until you have the User login list. I can then log in as usual and everything works! But if I do a Permissions repair I always have some more errors! Hardware test is fine. Everything OK until update.
Hope it works for you!

Installing combined update for 10.4.11 from an iBook running 10.4.2

My friend's iBook was having trouble running iTunes (stuttered play); I checked to see what version she had and found she was running 7.1 under 10.4.2. I launched Software Update (which was set to search for updates monthly, but hasn't been) and set it to update four or five things--iTunes, Java, Quicktime, and the combined update for 10.4.11. Everything seemed to download and install fine, until the last one, the combined update. There was a red exclamation mark next to it in the Sofwware Update window and an error message popped up, saying there had been an error and it had been unable to install the update, and that the package was in the trash, where we should reopen it using the Finder. We did this; the Installer app launched and immediately closed (with the regular "application has quit unexpectedly" message). Attempts to launch other applications likewise fail. An attempt to download the combined update from the apple webpage was successful, but when we tried to mount the disk image, a "warning message" popped up, saying the disk image failed to mount due to a "broken pipe". The computer now hangs on restart and won't boot up. Any help restoring and/or updating would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

Boot from the Original Install cD/DVD, look in the Menubar for Utilities>Disk Utility, use that to Verify/Repair the HD, then use it to Repair Permissions.
If you boot to the HD, then use Disk Utility from the HD to Repair Permissions then reboot again.

Combined update MAC OS X Ver 10.6.6

I have installed two times the update called "Combined update MAC OS X Ver 10.6.6".
After the installation the computer blinks the screen and the computer stop working.
I have solved this, reinstalling the original MAC OS X 10.6.1
I would like to know how to solve this problem
Thanks,

Try downloading the combined update file through a source other than Apple Software Update such as: http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1349. Having the seperate file (I think its a .dmg) may help.
Maybe that will work, otherwise it may have not worked the first time because something was corrupt in your old installation so just try again.
If still no success, check that all the programs you have are not causing some kind of compatibility issue.

Combined Update Freezes on Install

I'm desperately trying to update my new MacBook 10.5.2 with the Combined Update OS X. It downloads fine using the Software Update application, i restart my machine and all the updates are installed except the combined update which just freezes on installation with the narration "Configuring Update". I originally got this message while running Bootcamp with Vista Ultimate, thought that may be the reason and therefore deleted the Vista partition and reinstalled OS X using the installation DVD and left Vista off altogether.
I'm not too sure what else to try, any suggestions??

Are you doing the reinstall with the original disks that came with the MacBook?
Are you using the correct version of the 10.5.5 Combo updater?
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1055comboupdate.html
Are you waiting long enough for the updater to do it's thing? Maybe start the updater and leave it alone, go have a cup of coffee, see if it works through its "isssues".
Have you tried booting into Safe mode and running the updater in Safe mode?
To start up in safe mode:
Shut down your computer and wait 10 seconds.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold down the Shift key.
You should press the Shift key as soon as possible after your hear the startup tone, but not before.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator (spinning gear).
I don't know if the updater will run in Safe mode, but it is worth trying.

Software Update Installer stuck on "Configuring Installation"

Hi, I just received my Mac Pro yesterday and, of course, it needed some updates. After I downloaded some software updates and the large Combined Update for Leopard, I chose to restart the computer to let them install. As of about 45 minutes ago, the progress bar hasn't moved (approximately at a 2% position). It isn't slowly moving; rather, it's not moving at all. The window simply says "Installing 7 items" and "Configuring Installation".
I have a feeling that this is caused by the Combined Update. Is this normal, or do I have a corrupt update?
Thank you!
Michael

HT3606 Mac OS X v10.5.8 Combined Update stalls updating my G4 1.25

Mac OS X v10.5.8 Update stalls updating my G4 1.25. A peek at the files being installed was reference to "standalone i386 efi" which has no place on a PPC. Are there different versions of the combined update? There are different sizes of the combined update.

Some general advice on updating Leopard:
It is worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, as they have all been extensively beta-tested, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first to an external hard disk. Ideally you should always have a bootable clone of your system that enables you to revert to the previous pre-update state.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site.
The Combo updater of Leopard 10.5.8 can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Full details about the 10.5.8 update here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3606
More information on using Software Updater here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.5.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications and turn off energy saving and screensaver.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious! In fact a second restart can be recommended.
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them compliant with the latest version of your operating system. Give them a week or two while you regularly check their websites for updates.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
[b]If you are updating Safari (or just have):[/b]
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed an OS update and Safari is crashing, the very [i]first[/i] thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party add-on.
Additional tips on software installation here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
/Library/InputManagers
~/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).

How do I install the FM10 licensing fix when Adobe Update Installer won't run?

Adobe Update Installer won't run so can't install FM10 licensing fix
This question is Not Answered.(Mark as assumed answered)
Aug 9, 2013 12:09 PM
Tags (edit): none (add)
Because FM10 began crashing with "fatal" errors whenever I tried to generate a TOC for a small (65 page) book, I researched workarounds and none of them worked. Now that I have delivered a crippled deliverable via Acrobat manipulations, I would like to fix FM. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, got some updates, and then received the "licensing fix" error that popped up in January. I'm wondering why this fix was included not in the updates. That said, the licensing fix package, first, would not unzip so I downloaded it again. I unzipped it but I got a message that Adobe Updater Installer could not run and after several clicks I found that file. I reinstalled Adoble Update Installer but it still does not run.
I am running Windows XP and have TCS 3.5.I uninstalled FM and RH but not Acrobat, Captivate, or Photoshop.
So, now what? Listen to my supervisor who says never use FM again?
P.S. Why do I have to enter a title for my question and then do it again when this page opens??

Give Adobe Support a call or contact the TCS team at [email protected] - something in your environment is causing the installer to fail (I'd guess).

How can I set service preferences with Safari 5.0.5 and os 10.6.8? Was working fine until combined update install.

My service preferences won't set after installing combined update earlier this week and the security 2012-4 update that caused so much problem with mail. Is there a list of changes that was made in safari with this latest update, because the bookmarking isn't working the same and the readling list page is gone?

because the bookmarking isn't working and the same and the reading list page is gone?
Your profile indicates you have v10.7.2 installed yet your topic refers to v10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).
Try this...
Open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Safari then reselect it.
Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync your bookmarks and reading list.
Safari 5.0.5 is an outdated version. You need to update Safari.
Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click Software Update...
Restart your Mac after the updates are installed.

The update installation on my iPod touch failed and erased everything.

I plugged in my iPod touch (1st generation)into my computer and opened iTunes. A message popped up saying that there was a new update for my iPod, so i clicked on the download and install button. I downloaded the update and while it was installing, another message popped up saying the installation failed. so I was like ok I'll just click on the download again and reinstall it. But now my iPod wasn't showing on iTunes. I disconnected it and reconnected it and my iPod still didn't show. Then I noticed that the download wasn't there either. I turned on my iPod and all it showed was a picture with a connection cord pointing up to the iTunes logo. I think that the failed update installation must have completely erased my iPod touch's software. I have tried looking for the update download all over my computer but found nothing. what do I do now? Is there a way for me to download the software again or something? thank you

Thanks Jason, I will try the troubleshooting steps. Will they still work even if my iPod touch isn't even being recognized as an iPod by iTunes or my computer?
If the iPod is not recognized and cannot be restored from the other user account, try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1852
You can quickly isolate the issue by trying to restore from another computer.
If the issue is not present on another computer try the tips in the article above.
If the iPod touch has the same issue on another computer, it may need repair.

10.6.2 combined update seems to have no effect

Hello all,
I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard (10.6.0) from Leopard (10.5.8) and everything looked pretty good. However, I've tried to install the "10.6.2 combined update" through Software Update two times now and it doesn't seem to have worked either time. I get no error message, but after my computer restarts the "About This Mac" window still shows a system version of 10.6. Can anyone suggest what might be going wrong and how to fix it?
Thanks!

yes, it is if you are upgrading directly from 10.6. that's exactly what the OP got via software update.

11.0.4 Updater installation failed - error U44M1P7

For the benefit of others, I wanted to post the steps that fixed this issue for gbrozk1:
Open Extension Manager CS5.
Select Dreamweaver on the left, and then remove the HTML5Pack (11.0.3 Updater) extension.
Repair the installation of Dreamweaver using your original installation media.
To do this, insert your original installation DVD, or double-click the downloaded DMG file, and then double-click Set-Up.app to begin the installation.
When given choices of which products to Install/Re-install, uncheck everything except Dreamweaver. (That is, we need to be sure Dreamweaver is selected to be re-installed. Re-installing repairs the installation.)
Follow the remaining on-screen instructions to complete the re-install/repair of Dreamweaver.
Restart your computer.
Install the 11.0.4 update.
Hope that helps someone!

I am on a Mac, 10.7.2 and am running CS5 - Dreamweaver runs fine there are no issues there, I have now 3 Adobe Application Manager updates in my tool bar... As soon as it runs again, I'll have 4...
Anyone have any answers that DON'T involve reinstalling Dreamweaver?
