Problem downloading VLC 2.1.4 update for mac osx

I received an update message from VLC that their latest 2.1.4 update was available and it launched an update window.  Every time I try to update, an error message appears and says to try again later.  When I go to VLC's site and try to update, it shows that my browser, Safari, can't connect to that server.  I've tried searching the web for others experiencing this problem and have found nothing.  Seems odd that there wouldn't be some dialogue if this was a problem affecting others.  Maybe it hasn't been a problem for others. This occured on Friday night and has continued through today.  Looking for any input. 

Running the latest 2.1.3 version of VLC.  They have had a few updates in the past few months and every update has worked problem free.  Not until now has there been an issue.  I've tried the update process via the drop down menu under VLC search for updates (update within the app) as well as going to VLC's site and clicking on the download button. " Error message" appears when using the update within the app and "Safari cannot can't connect to the server" window when using the VLC site.  Security & privacy settings show allow apps downloaded from Mac App Store and identified developers.  Not a big deal guys and thanks for the input.  Apparently not a problem among the collective.  It appears to be a problem with my computer.

  • Just got a Nikon D610 and CS5 for Mac can't open the images -- message says installed version of camera raw doesn't support the camera.  Downloaded the Raw 6.2 update for Mac, but installation failed. Now what?

    The D610 didn't get out-of-the-box RAW support until Photoshop CC.
    You can either upgrade to CC or use the DNG Converter to convert and open your DNGs in CS5.

  • How do I download a previous version of firefox for mac osx 10.5.8 (leopard)?

    How do I download a previous version of firefox for mac osx 10.5.8 (leopard)?

    Beginning with Firefox 4, Macs must have an Intel x86 processor (which you do NOT have; yours is a PPC Mac) '''''<u>and</u>''''' OSX 10.5 or higher
    *System Requirements: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/4.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 4]   [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/5.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 5] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/6.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 6] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/7.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 7] [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/8.0/system-requirements/index.html Firefox 8]
    '''''The good news''''' is that Firefox 3.6.24 still supports OSX 10.4 and Macs with the PPC Mac architecture. '''''The bad news''''' is that support for the Firefox 3.6.x series is likely to end in the first quarter of 2012.

    You can try the third-party product '''''TenFourFox''''' that supports PPC Macs. Firefox 8 version of '''''TenFourFox''''' is available. The product is based on Firefox released versions. All support is provided by the developer, not by this site:

  • I am trying to download the new adobe update for Mac OSX 10.9.5,without success.

    I will begin the download and it gets hung up on 25% and eventually the installer will just close itself.  I have checked all of the recommendations, i.e. the browser preferences and deleting the filing and starting over.  Help?

    First you need to research all the problems people are having with the higher OSX versions, & make sure you have a bootable clone of what you have just in case.
    then you must get 10.6 if they still have it, install it & update to 10.6.8 so you have the App Store to buy & download the huge 10.8 Installer.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

  • Am I the only one with a problem with iMovie since the Mavericks update for Mac???

    My iMovie keeps freezing, causing my whole computer to freeze and all I can do is shut it down and then the whole project is gone when I open the computer again. It will say that I have 1 project or 2 projects or whatever but no projects show up? And if I create a new movie with the same name as the previous ones, it will say that the project already exists? This is the third time within 30 minutes I have to start all over with a project cause it just keeps freezing and I have to shut the whole thing down by pressing down the on/off button, cause its the only thing that does not freeze. It's frustrating, please help, anyone?

    I have no issues with suspend-resume cycle with networkmanager.

  • Pages updates for Mac OSx 10.6.8

    It seems I am being forced to purchase a new version of Pages software in order to read, open, save or print documents sent to me by a colleague. However, the newest version of Pages requires 10.7 and up. Where can I purchase a compatible version?

    There is no compatible version for Snow Leopard on the App Store. You can purchase a boxed set iWork '09 that should work with Snow Leopard. Look for it on eBay or Amazon.com.

  • How to install english language adobe Photoshop CS4 for Mac OSX 10.7.5 ?

    Hello,
    I am in Germany and need to switch Photoshop to English.
    The option is not available in the language preferences (attached screenshot)
    I could only find an update for Mac OSX 10.4, but not 10.7?
    Please help!
    Thanks in advance!

    Languages are serial number specific. You cannot change them on the fly. If your serial number supports it, you would have to install it in English. anything beyond that is a hack like stripping the localization files from the app package...

  • HT6030 I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update. Hmmmm.

    I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update.   Expect it's due to being at 10.9.1.  Mail is still teetering between dysfunctional and non-functional.  Advice?

    I'm not sure what "Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6" is. Mac OS X 10.5.6 is Leopard, a system that is quite old at this point. There have not been any Mail updates for Leopard in quite some time. If you are trying to install some old Mail update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 in Mavericks, that won't work.
    If you are trying to install the Mavericks Mail update manually, that's not necessary if you have updated through the App Store. If the App Store shows no updates, you don't need this. (The error message doesn't make sense, and may indicate some other problem with your system, assuming that you were downloading this update from Apple's site.)
    I'd advise you to start a new topic in the Mavericks forum and describe the problems you are having with Mail. Be sure to include specifics, but try to avoid speculating on causes, as responses that may be related to an inaccurate assumption on your part can cloud the issue.

  • When downloading the new 10.7 update for itunes, an error message saying that there is an error writing to file, verify that you have access to this file comes up... what is this??

    When downloading the new 10.7 update for itunes, an error message saying that there is an error writing to file, verify that you have access to this file comes up... what is this??

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • HT1926 I keep getting the following message after attempting to download and install the latest update for iTunes: missing MSVCR80.dll.  error 7 (windows error 126)

    I keep getting the following message after attempting to download and install the latest update for iTunes: missing MSVCR80.dll.  error 7 (windows error 126). Anyone else having this issue? How do I get iTunes back in working order?

    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.

  • Download of 8.1.2 update for ipad air 2 consistently fails after 2-3 hours.

    I've made several attempts to download the 8.1.2 update for my ipad air 2.  Past IOS updates for earlier ipads typically took 3-4 hours.  With this update for the new air 2, the estimated time rapidly climbs from 4 hours to 14, then after 2-3 hours the status changes to "processing file", then there's a popup that "an error occurred".  Unfortunately I didn't capture the exact error code.  This has happened 4 times now at different times of different days of the week.  Using the latest version of iTunes (side note - where's help/about for version info?) on Windows 8.1.  Any ideas?  TIA.

    Thanks but that's no help.  I have a relatively high-speed connection.  The 8.1.2 upgrade for our iphones still took 2-3 hours.  The issue with that doesn't seem to be my connection as it's only managing 1/3-1/2 full out.  I suspect any network slowdown is elsewhere.  In any case the estimate seems to be off because the download seems to complete.  At least that's how I interpret the status change from downloading to processing file. THEN the error occurs.

  • Camera Raw 6.7 Update for Mac OS 10.10:  Installation Failed error message.

    Camera Raw 6.7 Update for Mac:  Installation Failed error message.  Update downloaded directly from Adobe website.  Newly purchased Mac Workbook Pro, OS 10.10, using Photoshop CS5. Other updates successfully accomplished.  Camera Raw 6.7 Update was downloaded multiple times with multiple installation attempts. Any recommendations?

    thanks for the prompt response...i appreciate it.  according to the link you listed, that's correct.  the strange thing is that prior to the upgrad to mac os 10.8.4, photoshop CS5 was working just fine and i was able to open my canon raw files with my current camera raw plug-in version 6.7 which adobe has indicated is the last camera raw update they'll be offering for cs 5
    so it's clearly an issue related to the "upgrade" of the os.  seems like every solution creates 6 new problems...further evidence for the notion that if it ain't broke don't fix it!  thanks again.

  • Migration assistant update for Mac OS X Snow Leopard

    Hello -- I downloaded SNOW LEOPARD successfully that past week. I did a software update as well afterwards.
    Now in preparation for upgrading to LION OS X, I read an article that mentions one must make sure to have the MIGRATION ASSISTANT UPDATE for Mac OS X Snow Leopard installed. I am unsure if this was included in the software updates I performed. One would assume it would be there. BUT there is not a detailed listing of what these combination updates include. HOW can I tell if I have the desired version required to continue on to LION?
    Another suggestion was for one to perform FIRST AID on the start up disk. It only says to select your Mac HD and then to "verify" ..... do they mean to VERIFY DISK or VERIFY DISK PERMISSIONS. I have on occasion performed a REPAIR DISK PERMISSIONS but not the others mentioned. I do not know what the difference is?
    THANK YOU

    I have the same console mesages repeating ad-nasium as you do. What is interesting is I do have the StartuoItems directory but it is empty. The problem I have is that the log-in window comes up as normal, but I can not type in it for about 5-8 seconds. This has started after the latest updates which you mention. Don't know if this issue is related or not. Have deleted the loginwindows and loginitems preferences to no effect.
