QUICKTIME [7.4.1] Why can't get from auto-update?

I'm trying to get the new quicktime from the auto/update, but it says my software is upto date / but when i checked online the new version was available only from its website,,, so whys it not there in autoupdate, is there a problem in the new version / which is why apple is not it putting on,,, help plz?

Lawrence,
Thanks for your reply. 
So to affirm your point, I agree there are certain users who (for whatever reasons) prefer to evaluate and research the available consensus on every single update published for every single of their apps.  So yes, my want to have apps on the iPhone auto-update (vs being required to manually click to update them) might  frustrate some. To that end, I'd imagine there are very few features (like an auto update) a company could add to a heavily used system (like Apple's iOS) without generating some controversy; the auto-update I want is no exception. 
That said, the argument that the majority (or even a significant minority) of users wouldn't want to receive the most updated versions of the apps they have on their phones seems a bit thin.  Updates are just that: "up to date" versions of their software.  The onus is on the developers to release functioning and improved updates; that's an obligation Apple should reinforce if they desire a robust and diverse ecology of apps to augment the utility and value of their phones. 
The present dynamic assumes iPhone users want to invest their time evaluating and collecting research on the viability of each new update to their apps.  That's ridiculous and implies a mistrust of both their app publishers, as well as the effectiveness of a democratic marketplace:
App publishers want to do right by their users, thus they want to release good updates, and
A marketplace of user ratings and reviews influence other user behavior, so an irresponsible developer wouldn't get very far releasing crap updates.

  • Mac OS 10.4.11 I can't get Firefox auto updates to work so on my Mac what do I check

    I am set up for auto updates in Firefox but I get a message from Firefox that it does not have the authority to do it. I get Microsoft auto updates so do I need to change something on the Mac or what?
    Thanks, Helen Kelly

    Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean reinstall.
    Install the new version that you have downloaded.
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • Why can't Flash Player auto-update?

    Even in 1998, applications had the capability to auto-update. Why do I have to download a new install file for almost every Flash Player update? It even has the option to allow auto-updates yet here I am downloading another install file for the 37th time! If flash wasn't so embedded in all of the internet, I would abandon it and uninstall it altogether. I hope that someone comes along with a better solution so I don't have to use FP anymore. Get with the times, Adobe!

    Flash Player HAS auto update available
    The updates are not simply "patches" anymore. That sort of thing went the way of FAT16, several years ago.
    You shouldn't have to update every day. If you are, something is wrong.

  • Why can I get several HD channels in HD on my rooftop antenna, but the not on Fios?

    Why can I get several HD channels in HD on my rooftop antenna, but not on Fios?
    E.g. WABC, WNBC, WLIW and WNET come in at least 4 HD channels via my rooftop antenna but only one WLIW (non-HD) on Fios.
    Bummer.
    I can switch from the RF to HDMI sources but I thought with all of the channels I could at least get the ones I watch.
    I'm located in Northern NJ USA, about 10 miles (line of sight) from NYC.

    I assume you get the NJ versions of those channels? 
    Networks pay for exclusive programming rights within specific markets. Cable operators are only allowed to offer a specific set of local channels within their designated media market (DMA).  If you aren't considered to be in the NYC market, then you aren't supposed to receive those channels.
    Like many in the DC area, I can pickup the Baltimore locals with an antenna, but I as I live in the DC DMA, those are the only channels I receive from Verizon, Comcast, DirecTV, etc.  Note there are circumstances where a customer might fall between two markets, living in an area with overlapping DMAs; in that case, the provider can choose to offer two different sets of locals.  Verizon FiOS does do that in some areas.

  • I am unable to apply my downloaded update. When I try to apply it and restart firefox, it still says 'apply downloaded update now...'. Why can't I apply this update and what do I do about it?

    I am unable to apply my downloaded update. When I try to apply it and restart firefox, it still says 'apply downloaded update now...'. Why can't I apply this update and what do I do about it?

    Checked out that link and everything seems to be in order on this machine at this time.
    I only have CC installed on this one machine, not even my secondary machine like is permitted. it seems odd that I'm asked to re-accept the Licence Agreement as often as I am. If I had to guess, it's almost every week, if not multiple times some weeks, that all the software will decide I should have to view the licence agreement.
    Edit: I've never had any noticeable "errors" activating or anything like that. I just get asked to do it quite frequently.
    This activation screen isn't too annoying (it involves clicking one single button), but like I stated earlier, if I'm trying to launch the software by double-clicking on a PSD, AI, PPROJ, AEP, etc... that file will fail to open.
    I feel like that's probably not really a bug, but it is frustrating, since I did launch the application with the intent to edit that specific file I tried to open.
    Again, something that you guys may consider working on.
    Another annoyance is that: agreeing to the licence agreement is a per-application task, so if I see that Licence Agreement dialogue window by opening Photoshop (for example), I know that every other piece of software I have in the suite (Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects, Audition) will be showing me that screen on it's next launch. Probably deliberate for legal purposes that I can't just agree once for the whole suite, but heck, it would save me a lot of minor headaches if it was a unified agreement.

  • HT201263 My iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5 yet most apps run on iOS 7. Why can't I make the update on my iPad 1? Is this so I buy another iPad 2+? Now why would I want to buy something that will be obsolete in a few years?

    My iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5 yet most apps run on iOS 7. Why can't I make the update on my iPad 1? Is this so I buy another iPad 2+? Now why would I want to buy something that will be obsolete in a few years?  I really want to purchase an Live TV plan yet I need iOS 7 to run most TV apps.
    Can Apple tell me why my iPad 1 is obsolete?
    g

    It's not obsolete as much as the first gen simply lacks the power to run the newer operating systems. IT doesn't have enough RAM. If someone managed to hack it to get iOS 6 or 7 on there they'd just have a slow, boggy and unresponsive device. (think putting windows 7 on an old laptop.
    Unfortunately software moves faster than hardware. Every thing goes obsolete. I've had my ipad 2 for two and a half years now and I know it only has so much longer left to it too. Just the 'joys' of advancing technology.

  • HT204053 I changed my Apple ID on all my devices and Apple services but iCloud still shows my old Apple ID. How can I get it to update?

    I changed my Apple ID on all my devices and  services but iCloud still shows my old Apple ID. How can I get it to update?

    I asked the Apple Tech support people and their advice worked for me, it's a setting on the iPad itself. see below.
    Follow the below instructions to sign in with your new account name.
    1) From the home screen, tap Settings
    2) Tap Store
    3) Tap Sign Out
    4) Tap Sign In
    5) Enter your current account name "xxxx" and your password  and tap OK.
    If you are still unable to change the sign in name on your iPad, please sign into your account on your computer and then sync the iPad so the changes will be updated.
    good luck

    Dear All,
    Please let me know, How can I get the last updated email address of the customer ??
    Also, I am trying to read CDHDR table where OBJECTCLAS is ADRESSE, however what value should be passed into OBJECTID field, looks like it is ADRNR with a Suffix BP.
    Please confirm me what value should be passed into OBJECTID field.
    Thank you.

    Hi Anitha,
      Check if this is something that helps you:
    Change documents in BAS
    CDHDR
    address type 1
    objectclass = ADRESSE             
    objectid = addrgroup + addrnumber     (ADRC-ADDR_GROUP + ADDRNNUMBER) !!
                     'BP  000xxxxxx'
    private address (address type 2)
    objectclass = ADRESSE2
    objectid =  'BP  000xxxxxx000yyyyyyy'   
                            persnumber+adrnr private

    Why can't I access the updated that are pending on my phone? I've turned the phone off and also closed all the apps. But still won't allow me to access the updates. Just a blank screen.

    Another post is reporting that applying the 6.1 update fixes their issue. I'll have to wait until I am back on WiFi to try that.

  • First question - I have Acrobat 9 on my desktop and the license seems to have been messed up.  I tried to download and fis but I asked me for a disk.  I don't have any idea where the "disk" is.  Can I get the license update without that disk?

    Second question - In anticipation of not being able to do that, I bought (at University bookstore) Acrobat XI Pro - do I need to uninstall the 9.0 Pro version before I try to install the XI version?

  • Why can't I download my updates...it doesn't accept my password...changed it several times no luck

    Why can't I download my updates....it says my password is wrong...changed it several times with still no luck. What's wrong? When I login to my apple ID it works..whist am I doing wrong?

    Have you tried logging out of your account by tapping on it in Settings > Store and then logging back in ?
    If that doesn't work then you could try closing the App Store app completely and seeing if you can download updates when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the App Store 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the App Store app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Another option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Restored iPod, can't get january software update

    I had to restore my ipod to make it sync with another computer and now I can't get the software update I freakin bought. I have tried everything under iPod Touch on the support pages. I have everything right and it just won't let me get it. This computer I bought the update on has had the OS reinstalled on it since then.

    I've got the same problem. My touch came w/ 1.1.3. I up'd to 1.1.4, and purchased the January app update when it came out.
    I wanted to wipe my iPod of personal information (going to sell it). I read on here that doing the settings:erase doesn't remove all information (wifi, iTunes purchase). Tried it, verified that post was correct (I could still attach to my encrypted wifi). So I went looking for a total reset instructions.
    Found Apple's webpage on how to do it, and then how to install, verify or reinstall the January update: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1376
    So I factory-reset it, then followed the instructions to reapply the update. It's not working for me. I can sync music, videos, etc to it. I see the correct software version and serial number when I click on it in iTunes. Just no new apps on it.
    I've performed the reset/sync ordeal a few times now. Tried setting it to manual, just to see if that might do the trick. Or toggling to non-manual afterward.
    Still no luck
