Passcode for Update of software

I have never create a passcode for updating of software. Now it is asking for the passcode when I tried to update. Anyone can help?
Thank you.

Perhaps it wants you to set a passcode for the account, not enter one you already have. But for the latter:

How to unblock function for updating IOS software.

we did say not to upgrade some time ago, now we want to upgrade ios, how to find and unblock function for upgrading ios to newer software?

I did everything that you guys asked me to do. Until now my iphone is useless. A friend of mine asked me to update his iphone 4 running ios 5.1.1 to ios 7.1.2 and I was able to update it without experiencing any error then I tried it again on my iphone but the same error appeared. The same (error code 3194).
This got me thinking that APPLE must have blocked my iphone from updating to later version of IOS. can someone please help me figure out and understand why this is happening to my iphone if other iphone like my friend's can update ios so easy?

License requirements for updating WLC software

Hi all,
I've WLC 4404 running 4.1.171.0 and want to know if i can upgrade it to the latest version of the OS for free?
Do i need an active smartnet subscription? Can you upgrade for free? Can you buy and upgrade? In the dark about this.
Thanks,
Neil

Hi Neil,
There are no "licensing" costs involved with this type of WLC Upgrade. If you have access to the Software download Centre you are good to go :)
Hope this helps!

May I know how to update preinstalled iPhoto in MacBook Pro?I was not given the password which was required for updating.

I need to update my preinstalled iPhoto in my MacBook Pro, how ever i was not issued with the password needed for updating.

AppStore software and the free iLife included on new Mac's is copy protected and can only be updated or reinstalled (free) by the original owner.
If you bought the machine used or a "open box", the original owner should have wiped the Macintosh HD partition and just reinstalled OS X, but many don't do that or what occurs is the store reinstalls OS X free and then free iLife using their AppleID.
So when it comes time to update it, you can't because you have a different AppleID and password.
It's terrible hassle with all this mega-copy protection shenanigans because it allows someone to sell you a used Mac with tons of software for more money you later can't update for security issues and compatibly with newer OS X versions.
So you can either to choose to use it as is, or wipe and reinstall OS X and then buy a copy of the software, then it will be in your name.

Can I maually check for updates but prevent them from being automatically installed if it turns out one is available?

Can I maually check for updates but prevent them from being automatically installed if it turns out one is available?
Background:
In options I have "check for updates, but let me choose whether to install them" ticked. This works fine, in that I periodically receive a notice of an available update, and it will ask me whether I want to I want to install it.
But there are certain times -- for reasons I won't go into here (unless requested as part of seeking a solution) -- where I want to manually check for new versions, but RETAIN the ability to decide whether or not to install it. But if I click Help/About Firefox/Check for Updates, and it finds an update, it will immediately proceed to install it without asking for permission. While that seems quite inconsistent with my update preferences in Options, it is apparently normal behavior as described in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version#w_how-do-i-manually-check-for-updates.
So is there any way I can manually check for new-update availability but then refuse the update if I so choose? Once an unwanted install begins, I'm concerned that if I click cancel I could end up with a partial installation or some "messed up," duplicated or corrupted FF files (e.g., multiple versions appended with (1), (2) etc, similar to what sometimes confusingly happens when I do an XP System Restore).
Thanks.

I think what needs to be made very clear here is that when a user clicks on "check for updates" the software should bloody well CHECK for updates and most certainly SHOULD NOT proceed to download and apply any updates. this is misleading and intrusive.
I just wanted to check if there was an updated version but I DID NOT want to actually update at that moment. the software downloaded data, costing me money and tried to apply the update which could have potentially messed up my settings if I had not checked everything was ok first.
I actually discovered how to prevent the update by searching through windows and manually deleting the files but why should anyone have to go to such lengths?
the software should simply do as it is asked, not do things that have most certainly not been asked.

I just updated the software on my iPad2 and now it's asking for my passcode but I never set one. How can I fix this?

I fixed it!!
While not connected to any USB cable I put the iPad in recovery mode.
To do that turn the iPad completely off. Press and hold the home button while turning the iPad on, once you see the apple logo release the home button.
Turn on your OS X mac after it boots up connect the USB from iPod to Mac. iTunes should start. If not launch itunes.
Perform the factory restore process paying attention to all of the screen message windows. Then set up the ipad like it was new.

I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S. It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S, 16 GB to the most recent version (8.1?). I don't know what I was updating from, because I can't access that, but it was whatever was installed on it (I got it about a year ago, so probably 6.something).
It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync with my macbook plus, which is what I have always sync'd it to. (I backed it up and sync'd it right before I tried to update the software.)
Since it originally froze almost 3 hours ago, it shows a white screen with the apple on it and a line underneath. When I try to sync with my laptop, it says it needs me to enter a passcode on the phone, which I can't enter because the screen is frozen. So I'm unable to access the iPhone portion of iTunes.
I have tried to turn it off, with no luck. I have tried rebooting my laptop and syncing, but I still get the same result.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I really wanted to wait to update the software, but I was having internet connectivity issues for the past 3 weeks, and Sprint suggested updating the phone's software.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi NWL1,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

HT5622 I updated new software on my phone and now can't use it because its asking for a 4 digit security code that I don't know. How do I find this number?

I updated new software on my Apple 4S phone and now can't use it because it requires a 4 digit security code that I don't know. The phone store when I originally bought phone bypassed it for me. How do I find it?
