Problems with update / permissions

Hi
I have a problem with my 15" mid 2010 macbook Pro with 8GB RAM, running Lion with 10.7.4.
Problem:
I cannot update the SW running the Apple update - I finds the new updates for iMovie, iPhoto, Java etc, but when asking it to install them, it prompts me that I cannot install due to not having the correct permissions.
The problem occured approx 3-4 weeks ago. Before that I had never experienced this before...
I have repaired the permissions, but that didn't help - does anyone have a solution to this?
FYI I'm still a novice on the Mac - so I'm learning everyday....

Per

Besides repairing permissions with disk utility, you need to reset your user permissions. Follow instructions here:
Repairing User Permissions in OS X Lion
You’ll need to reboot to perform this, and then use the same resetpassword utility that is used to change passwords in Lion, but instead choosing a hidden option.
When you use the Disk Utility app and Repair Permissions — it doesn’t actually repair the permission settings on folders and files in your Home folder where your documents and personal applications reside.
In Lion, there is an additional Repair Permissions application utility hidden away. This toolis located inside boot Repair Utilities. Here’s how to access it.
Restart Lion and hold down the Command and R keys.
You will boot into the Repair Utilities screen. On top, in the Menu Bar click the Utilities item then select Terminal.
In the Terminal window, type resetpassword and hit Return.
The Password reset utility launches, but you’re not going to reset the password. Instead, click on the icon for your Mac’s hard drive at the top. From the drop-down below it, select the user account where you are having issues.
At the bottom of the window, you’ll see an area labeled ‘Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs’. Click the Reset button there.
The reset process takes a couple of minutes. When it’s done, quit the programs you’ve opened and restart your Mac. Notice that ‘Spotlight’ starts re-indexing immediately.

Problem with updating the PC Updater software

Good evening (from Germany). I have a problem with updating my Nokia Software Updater. I can download the setup and I can execute this. But when the installation starts (0%) a error message appears. It's a problem with Windows Installer but I don't know how to solve the problem. Here is a picture with the exactly error message:

Problem with file permissions

Hello all,
I am making a simple HttpServlet, which takes input
from html page and saves in to a file, but I'm having a
bit of a problem with file permissions.
I'm getting the following exception

Hello again.
I'm still having problems with this. I made
a simple servlet that reads from and writes
to text file. The reading part work fine on my
computer, but the writing doesn't, not even
an exception is thrown if the file exists that
I'm trying to write to. If I try to create a new
file I'll get an exception about file permissions.
I also asked a friend of mine to try this same
servlet on his windows computer and it works
as it should.
Here's the code
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;
import java.io.*;
public class ReadServlet extends HttpServlet
     public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
          String s = "";
          PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
          String docroot = getServletContext().getRealPath( "/" );
          out.println("docroot: "+docroot);
          File file = new File(docroot+"test.txt");
          if(file.exists())
               s = readFile(file);
               out.println(s);
          else
               out.println("file not found");
               //file.createNewFile();                    // causes exception
               //out.println("new file created.");
          writeFile(file, "written by servlet");
          out.println("Now look in the file "+file.getPath());
          out.println("and see if it contains text 'written by servlet'");
     public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException
          doPost(request, response);
     private String readFile(File file)
          FileInputStream fis = null;
          BufferedInputStream bis = null;
          DataInputStream dis = null;
          String s = "";
          try
               fis = new FileInputStream(file);
               bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis);
               dis = new DataInputStream(bis);
               s = dis.readLine();
               fis.close();
               bis.close();
               dis.close();
          catch(Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
          return s;
     private void writeFile(File file, String s)
          FileOutputStream fos = null;
          BufferedOutputStream bos = null;
          DataOutputStream dos = null;
          try
               fos = new FileOutputStream(file);
               bos = new BufferedOutputStream(fos);
               dos = new DataOutputStream(bos);
               dos.writeChars(s);
               fos.flush();
               bos.flush();
               dos.flush();
               fos.close();
               bos.close();
               dos.close();
          catch(Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
}And if someone wants to test this servlet I can
give a war package.
Any advices?

You need to find a store selling it and purchase it. If you buy it from an online store, it comes in the form of a DVD shipped to you.
Unless Apple or someone with a site license applicable to you says otherwise, you can't download it.

Y510p and problem with Update Nvidia Driver

Hi everyonei have problem with updating my y510p lenovo laptop nvidia driver ,my current nvidia driver version is 327.62 which i download from lenovo website,Now for better performance in new games like gta v and witcher3 ,i decide to updating nvidia driver,first remove my nvidia graphic driver from add or remove then download nvidia ver 350 from nvidia official web site , which nvidia website confirm it support my graphic card which is Gt755m , then i install new ver and during install i check clean install , after successful install , restart laptop , then there was problem . when i try to open nvidia control panel it wont running and an error showed up and said "You are not currently using a display attached to an NVIDIA GPU" .i try to open a game , game running in really low fps and i find out game run on hd graphic of my laptop and my nvidia graphic wont run .The only way to repair was i install my last nvidia driver 327.62 and run a system restore .guys what is your suggestion and how i can update my y510p nvidia driver ?Thanks

Hi Y510Man,
     The video graphics installation order is important. You need to install the Intel Graphics first, and then do the Nvidia. IIRC you should un-install the Nvidia driver, then re-install (or upgrade) the Intel HD Graphics driver. Reboot, and install the new Nvidia driver.
     I don't know why, but every time I upgraded my Y470 Nvidia driver, I had to use this procedure. First install, or re-install, the Intel driver, then install the Nvidia. You can't just upgrade the Nvidia driver without a re-install of the Intel. I think it has to do with the Optimus setting, and the automatic switching.
    Let us know how it goes.
Cheers

Problem with update SCCM client to Sp1 CU3 on Windows 2008 server

Hi all,
I have problem with update SCCM client on Windows 2008 Server to 2012 Sp1 CU3. I have sent to deployment package with update (SP1 Cumulative Update 3 - server update) on four servers and after few minutes I have got in Monitoring\Deployment details four
this same errors in "Asset Details":
USER Message ID
Status type Description
NT\AUTHORITY\SYSTEM 1006
Error 3003
I love that types of error... which is har to find answer on google :-( I have tried but I haven't find any constructive :-( Did you met with something similar? Which log I should check (sorry - I'm still noob in SCCM2012) to update actual SCCM Client SP1
(5.00.7804.1000) to SP1 CU3 (5.00.7804.1400)?
Thank you.

I see in fodler with CU3 updates, are four packages:
- SP1 Cumulative update 3 - x64 client update
- SP1 Cumulative update 3 - x86 client update
- SP1 Cumulative update 3 - server update
- SP1 Cumulative update 3 - console update
It will be stupid but... maybe I should deploy x64 client update package?
