Problem with latest -004 AirPort Update

Hello: Downloaded and installed the 10/26 AirPort 004 update on a Early 2008 Mac Pro directly connected to the latest APE(n). Internet still wotks fine but I cannot access the APE using the AP utility--no devices seen. Wasn't this the problem with the -003 update???

If the file appears in HD/Library/Updates, then delete it and try updating again.
Recently, I installed third party software that trashed OS X 10.5.5 and I was forced to re-install the original OS X 10.5.2 (CD) as a fresh new install.
After the install, the software update OS X 10.5.5 Combo would not Validate. The download version in dmg format also failed verification.
I re-installed 10.5.2 again and ran into the exact same problems.
For the third time, I again installed the original 10.5.2, this time I used Disc Utility to check the drive, this found problems with permissions in this new fresh install and was duly repaired.
TechTool Deluxe (AppleCare Protection Plan) was then used to check that everything was indeed OK.
Screensaver was then turned off along with Energy Saver prior to the Software Update and a successful validated update to 10.5.5 resulted.
When updating the rest of the software everything updated properly except for the Java Update which would not validate.
I set Software Update to ignore the Java Update and again, used Disc Utility which again found permission problems that had to be repaired.
I then downloaded the dmg version of Java Update which installed without a hitch.
Software Updates appear to be Apple's achilles heel, but no worse than any other OS.
Unfortunately, the slightest glitch will compromise a software download or it's installation from any source, one has absolutely no control of this process except for pushing buttons.
The best download software I have used is Star Downloader, for Windows, this downloads from a number of servers simultaneously then re-assembles the separate downloads as one file. I have never had it fail.
I no longer use any of Microsoft's hardware or software, I am so happy with my iMac and Apple's efforts.
I will follow your post with interest.
Best Regards,
BearsPaw

Has ayone experienced any problems withe latest apple tv update

who has experienced problems withe latest apple tv update???

Welcome to the Apple community.
There are always a few that experience some problem or other after an update. Exactly what problems are you having please.

Problem with latest OS X update. 10.10.2. Grey screen. .??

Problem with 10.10.2 update. Getting grey screen. Have tried safe boot but got same result.

Mac OS X- Gray screen appears during startup
Question (?) Mark, Blinking Folder, or Gray Screen at Startup
These are related but not identical issues. Their causes are outlined in Intel-based Mac- Startup sequence and error codes, symbols. Solutions may be found in:
A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac
Mac OS X- Gray screen appears during startup
In most cases the problems may be caused by one or more of these:
a. Problem with the computer's PRAM - See Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM.
b. Boot drive's directory has been corrupted - Repair with Disk Utility.
c. Critical system files are damaged or deleted - Reinstall OS X.
d. The disk drive is physically non-functional - Replace the hard drive.
Note that the information I have provided is what Apple recommends, If other users suggest different solutions than found here, then be sure what they recommend does not impact on your warranty, if any, or ability to get continuing Apple service.
Please don't start removing drives or changing cables unless you know what you are doing and have exhausted other non-invasive alternatives outlined here. If you perform any work yourself that is unapproved by Apple, then you will void any warranty you may have and lose all further Apple Support.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
The main difference if you are using Lion or Mountain Lion is that you must first boot from the Recovery HD. Simply boot from the Recovery HD to perform the above.
Reinstall Snow Leopard Without Erasing The drive
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.

2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing The Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Macbook Pro HD died/not recognized after latest Java & airport update..

Hi,
After the latest Java & airport updates, my mbp won't startup.
The only thing i see after the chime is the questionmark folder.
Holding the option button during restart to choose the bootdisk doesn't show the harddisk.
I've resetted pram & smc and that also doesn't fix it.
The mbp was connected to the charger and the battery almost full.
Hope somebody can help me, have been searching but didn't found no answers.
Did found somebody on the forum with a similair/the same problem

thanks in advance

Antonio, I'm going to try the instal disk tomorrow(it's almost 02:00 over here, and i'm at my girls house). If the harddisk is recognized, i will try the hardware check and see what's wrong.
Firewire mode is still working, so maybe with a little luck i can access it from my PowerMac. Did this before on my old Powerbook 12inch, when it gave up working properly.
Can you believe this.. Because i needed all the space of my external hd, i copied all my music to my mbp's hd tonight.. didn't expect this to happen.
Before i went to my girls house i was thinking about putting it all back, but couldn't wait..
I don't think apple is going to replace my hd on warranty, it's more than 2 years old.
My mbp has served well and i'm waiting for the arrendale 15 mbp's, when they arrive i'll order one and will swap the harddisk for a ssd. Then i can put the hd in my santa rosa mbp.
But if you think i can try asking apple for a replacement harddisk, i will try..

Looking for a site that shows problems with windows patches or updates.

Looking for a site that shows problems with windows patches or updates...so I know what not to install.
Plenty of sites list and summarize individual patches, I want one that consolidates problems and complaints so I can better assess the risk. Currently I'm waiting to install patches several days and doing google searches. That works, but I'd rather find a place
that does it with expertise.
Which forums would be best to look for such problems.
Thanks in and advance for suggestions

Hi,
I agreed with Cyber and Rick.
Windows update helps to keep your PC safer—and your software current—by fetching the latest security and feature updates from Microsoft via the Internet.
Although there might be some problems when installing it, Windows update is not the one to blame.
For troubleshooting Windows updates, if needed:

A problem with Nokia 5530 wirmware updating! Help!

Hi all,
I have meat the problem with Nokia 5530 firmware updating: updating allways finish with the message "Downloading of the variant package failed.Most probably there is non-commercial software in your device."
Is there any solution for that problem?
Thanks and regards,
Alexander

first its ok
then
translation:
For a better connection please insert the usb-cable directly in to the computer and not trough a usb-hub or -keybord or a dockingstation of a laptop.
Nokia Software Updater has tried downloading the software, but this is failed 4 times.
Its posible that it can be caused by a bad, slow or instable internet connection.
This failure can also occur because we have maybe a problem with our servers.
try later again

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

fair enough. No need for any unnecessary posts either. You issue had been addressed ad nauseum already in this forum had you bothered to search this forum (as forum etiquette would dictate) before posting.
In any case, I hope that your problem was solved.

Problems with latest version of Muse

I'd like to report some problems with latest version of Muse. Its actually all related with scroll effect.
1. In previous version I had a group of rectangles and when I added to them motion (initial motion: 0 everywhere, final motion: 0 everywhere) they where sliding nicely down during scrolling my page, and it happened only in y line (horizontally). Now its moving also on the right and left, when I am changing size of window. Other thing is that in firefox this group of rectangles is pinned to bottom of window.
2. I have footer that I want to be always pinned to the bottom of window. The footer is a group of objects: rectangle + one png file with hyperlink, and one text with hyperlink - and of course it worked perfectly in previous version, but now finally when I export the page I have only the rectangle without hyperlink on the bottom of the page and the rest is missing.
I hope I explained it clearly? I did my best :-)

I have a same problem like no.2.
Finally, I fixed it.
First, You have to ungroup the footer objecs.
Second, Group again that.
Then export your site.
Please try this!
I hope this will be of some help.
