Repeated Update Available Notices for Installed Updates

My computer keeps notifying me that updates available when they've already been installed and are listed as installed.
The Command Line Tools, for instance, are listed as installed a half dozen times or so, yet it's cosnattly being offered as an available update. The list of updates available for the computer keeps growing, but they're all installed. Update All or Update will run and go through the process, but the list never clears.
How do I get Updates to work properly and recognize what updates are already installed?

  • I have been getting notices for installing latest version of firefox. However, I understand that SMART BOOKMARKS TOOLBAR is not compatible with the latest versi

    I have been getting notices to instal latest version of firefox. However, I understand that SMART BOOKMARKS TOOLBAR , is not compatible. I experienced this before. Therefore, I do not want to go for it. .But at the same time, I often get problem in google documents because of no latest version.
    Pl. help

    The developer of '''''Smart Bookmarks Bar''''' seems to have abandoned that Add-on and has not issued an update to it since 2009-02-13.
    *See --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/smart-bookmarks-bar/versions/
    Have a look at a very similar Add-on named '''''Roomy Bookmarks Toolbar'''''. If you like that Add-on, un-install '''''Smart Bookmarks Bar''''' before installing it.

  • Repeating Software Update Notice for Version 10..2.1.3062

    I am repeatedly getting the notice "Applications update Version 10.2.1.3062 - size 377MB" but when I try to download it, the download fails. This is a corporate BB and so all updates are put through via our company IT group. They haven't been able to advise why I'm getting this notice or why it doesn't work. I get the notice almost every day.

    Updates to the OS go through the carrier to your device, not through your company. Your company may block the download, though.

  • I found the update function for Genius which is hidden in the Store menu but not in the actually Store. I repeatedly update Genius, get the message that it is communicating with Apple, then that Genius is updated but it never works. What gives?

    Repeted updates to Genius do nothing. I always get an error message for all 13,000 songs I have. My disc drive crashed and its taken months to reload click by click every song from the cloud or my computer. iTunes repeatedly crashes if you try to load more than about 50 songs at a time, and always crashes around the 200th song. All my playlists were erased and when I synch one of my two iPods everything on that was erased including all the play lists, I don't ever want to synch my other iPod because it still has dozens of my play lists that it took years to create based on 13,000 songs. So warning iTunes totally ***** if this ever happens to you. My Zune account on the other hand was fine. Anyway back to the question at hand - Genius use to work for my collection. Genius still works for the iPod which I will never synch again, why doesn't it work for my collection now despite repeated updates. Suppose its just another buggy Apple piece of software. BTW don't ever use Apple's iCloud it eats your entire music collection, erases it from you computer and then doles it out one click at a time from the cloud - another stupid piece of software from the geniuses at Apple. But why am I surprised Apple destroyed the record industry, so why not destroy everyone's CD collection and just reduce us all to slaves of iTunes and its magic. I'm sick of Apple and its bloated reputation for great software.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATION" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up").
    In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC. Now try another QuickTime install (Version 7.7.1). Does it go through properly this time?

  • How do I disable the 'Updates Available' notice?

    The 'Updates Available' notice seems to be unkillable. I choose not to update the system software immediately and would like to stop this notice from appearing every two minutes. I can click on it and slide it off screen but soon it pops back. I've checked out system preferences, notification preferences, to no avail. It gets in the way of aliases I have on the desk top and is a contender for the most stubbornly annoying feature of this OS. Any way I can suppress this thing?

    See if the info in this thread helps, or at least gets you closer to a solution:  Disable pre-call "time available" announcement - $80/mo. prepaid unlimited plan

  • Windows 8/8.1 - No Option for "Install Updates and Shut Down"

    We’ve got a handful of Windows 8 workstations and I’ve noticed that users don’t get the “Install Updates and Shut Down” option when they shut their systems down. Nor do they get the updates icon in the notification area.
    Instead, all they get is the following message at the logon screen:
    There is no way I can expect my users to do this.
    I need to ensure that the updates are installed when the user shuts down.
    There must be a way of configuring Group Policy to allow Windows 8 workstations to prompt to install updates when the user shuts down.
    I cannot implement an option whereby updates are installed automatically without the user being aware. If updates start installing automatically then there is the potential for loss of work if a user is away from their desk for a long period of time and
    their system just restarts to complete the installation.
    Our current group policy settings are below. This works fine for the Windows 7 workstations.
    I presume others have experienced this? Can anyone offer any guidance?
    Thanks
    Current Group policy settings:-
    Client Computers Policy:-
    Configure Automatic Updating – 3 – Auto download and notify for install
    I don't work for Microsoft - I just use their products.

    I am sorry but this is NOT an answer.
    You're correct. It's not. Microsoft has some overzealous contractors who seem to think any response is "the answer". I've unmarked the post, because, in fact, it was merely "additional information" which may or may not have addressed the
    original issue.
    I, like the original poster, have several computers that do NOT offer 'Install Updates' in any of the power menus and definitely do NOT install the updates during either a restart or a shutdown.
    Now *THAT* is an entirely *DIFFERENT* situation than what the Original Poster has offered here, so the appropriate thing for you to do is to start a NEW THREAD and fully describe the environment and symptoms of the problem and what you've done (if anything)
    to try to identify, isolate, or remediate the undesirable behavior.
    The PCs I have are Windows 8.1 installed from a partner copy of Windows 8 and upgraded.
    I'm intrigued with this "partner copy of Windows 8" thing. Have you asked "the partner" what they customized in the installation image before you actually installed the product???
    Can someone please offer a SOLUTION as opposed to parroting what SHOULD happen.
    Not until you provide us with some actionable information. :-)

  • TA48312 How can i update my osx software from my emac from osx 10.3 to the highest available software for an emac?

    How can i update my osx software from my emac from osx 10.3 to the highest available software for an emac?
    I have osx 10.3.x and i want to update to the highest possible. Please help!!!!! i cant find the download. And i dont want to lose any data!!

    Depending upon the specific model you have you can upgrade to either 10.4.x or 10.5.x. Neither are available from Apple any longer, so you will need to look to eBay or Amazon for copies. Be sure to only purchase retail copies and not gray labled machine-specific copies.
    If your eMac came with 10.3 originally and has a clock speed of 1 GHz or higher, then you can install Leopard, 10.5.x.
    If you don't want to lose data then make backups.

  • Why do I get daily notices to install the same update?

    Why do I keep getting daily notices to install the same update?

    Possibly because you have set firefox to ask you what to do when an update is available. Your sytem information suggests you are using firefox4.0 and the current main release is now firefox 4.0.1
    Go to about firefox and use the manual update option, it should then update. If you continue to have problems
    # please confirm which version you do have installed
    # copy any error messages you see, explaining when these occur, and what seems to generate them

  • Not Approved Updates Showing up for Install on Clients

    I have a group of servers that have an update that was selected as "Not Approved" for the group they are located in on WSUS, yet they show up for install when doing a windows update. If the update was selected on WSUS as "Not Approved"
    why is it showing up on the servers available for installation? I don't want to decline the update as it is approved for other groups on WSUS, I simply don't want some groups to get this particular update so I made it "Not Approved" for that group.
    Thanks for the help.
    Yamil

    If the update was selected on WSUS as "Not Approved" why is it showing up on the servers available for installation?
    Because "NotApproved" is not a DENY condition; it's merely the absence of an ALLOW condition.
    It only takes one approval in one group of which a computer is a member for it to have permission to install an update. If a computer belongs to multiple groups and you don't want the update deployed, the update must be NotApproved (i.e. not allowed) for
    ALL groups of which that client system is a member
    I strongly encourage the practice of creating group structures so that an update only has to be approved for ONE group (or one parent group), and then ensure that group (or group structure) only has computers that should get that update.
    Sometimes this also involves creating custom groups just to handle individual updates.

  • I just got a notice for iPad update.  It froze and will not start no matter what I do, I just got a notice for iPad update.  It froze and will not start no matter what I do

    I received a notice for software update.  It froze in process. I forced quited the iPad.  It will not start.  I see the apple and then it goes away.  Latest thing is a round iTunes with a plug symbol below it. It's plugged it and nothing.

    When I do that it says it will wipe my iPad clean and start over leaving me with nothing. 

  • Help - Default OS password for installing updates?

    I have a G4. I tried to download and install software updates last night but it asked me for a password to install the updates. I'm not aware of any password I set up.
    Does anyone know if there is a default password for installing new software?

    I'm not sure how this relates to AppleScript, but..
    There is no default password that anyone else can tell you.
    If you're using an admin account you can use your username and password, otherwise you can use 'admin' using the password you defined when you first installed/ran the system.
    If you don't recall that password, boot from the installer CD/DVD and choose the 'Change root password' option from the menus in the installer (before you actually run the install).

  • Write-Progress in PowerShell script for installing Missing Updates

    Hi, I had a previous question here
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/88931488-3b2c-4c08-9ad3-6651ba9bbcef/action?threadDisplayName=progress-indicator-for-installing-missing-sccm-2012-r2-updates
    But that method is not working as expected.  The progress bar displays then continues to increment past 100 throwing an error each time.
    I'm thinking I could use a foreach loop for the missing updates but I'm just lost when it comes to Powershell syntax.
    For example:
    # Get the number of missing updates
    [System.Management.ManagementObject[]] $CMMissingUpdates = @(GWMI -ComputerName $server -query "SELECT * FROM CCM_SoftwareUpdate WHERE ComplianceState = '0'" -namespace "ROOT\ccm\ClientSDK") #End Get update count.
    $result.UpdateCountBefore = "The number of missing updates is $($CMMissingUpdates.count)"
    #Install missing updates.
    #Begin example code, not tested.
    Foreach ($update in $CMMissingUpdates)
    $i++
    If ($CMMissingUpdates.count) {
    $CMInstallMissingUpdates = (GWMI -ComputerName $server -Namespace "root\ccm\clientsdk" -Class "CCM_SoftwareUpdatesManager" -List).InstallUpdates($CMMissingUpdates)
    Do {
    Start-Sleep -Seconds 15
    [array]$CMInstallPendingUpdates = @(GWMI -ComputerName $server -query "SELECT * FROM CCM_SoftwareUpdate WHERE EvaluationState = 6 or EvaluationState = 7" -namespace "ROOT\ccm\ClientSDK")
    #end my example code.
    #The code below is working to install updates but Write-Progress isn't.
    If ($CMMissingUpdates.count) {
    #$result.UpdateCountBefore = "The number of missing updates is $($CMMissingUpdates.count)"
    $CMInstallMissingUpdates = (GWMI -ComputerName $server -Namespace "root\ccm\clientsdk" -Class "CCM_SoftwareUpdatesManager" -List).InstallUpdates($CMMissingUpdates)
    #Set the missing updates to variable for progress indicator.
    $updates = $CMMissingUpdates.Count
    $Increment = 100 / $updates
    $Percent = 0
    Do {
    Start-Sleep -Seconds 15
    [array]$CMInstallPendingUpdates = @(GWMI -ComputerName $server -query "SELECT * FROM CCM_SoftwareUpdate WHERE EvaluationState = 6 or EvaluationState = 7" -namespace "ROOT\ccm\ClientSDK")
    #Not 100% sure $result.UpdateCountBefore is needed below.
    $result.UpdateCountBefore = "The number of pending updates for installation is: $($CMInstallPendingUpdates.count)"
    Write-Progress -Activity "Updates are installing..." -PercentComplete $Percent -Status "Working..."
    $Percent = $Percent + $Increment
    } While (($CMInstallPendingUpdates.count -ne 0) -and ((New-TimeSpan -Start $StartTime -End $(Get-Date)) -lt "00:45:00"))
    Write-Progress -Activity "Updates Installed" -Status "Done" -Completed
    } ELSE {
    $result.UpdateCountAfter = "There are no missing updates."}
    $result

    The increment should be 100  / (max number of items)
    That will not exceed 100 through (max number of items ) iterations in a loop
    Mathematically that can be written as 
    100 / (Max Number of items) * (max number of items ) iterations in a loop
    = 100 * ( (Max Number of Item) / (Number Iterations in a loop) )
    = 100 * 1 = 100
    The (max number of items) and (Number of Iterations in a loop ) need to be based on the same number.
    In the script, it is not based on the same number.
    The maximum number of items is $CMMissingUpdates.Count
    The number of iterations in the loop  is based on the condition 
    ($CMInstallPendingUpdates.count -ne 0)
    Which causes the iterations of the loop to exceed $CMMissingUpdates.Count
    Assuming the $CMInstallPendingUpdates.count is going down (is decremented) through the loop, then
    $Increment = 100 /
    $CMInstallPendingUpdates.count

    How did you do that?  Do you mean you sync to iTunes that had the ipad library?
    The phone with the issue, settings - general - reset - erase all contents and settings - this will wipe the phone clean and then restore from your backup.
