Safari stuck configuring installation for 3.2

Hi gang,
I am trying to use Software Update on my MacBook Pro to update Safari to 3.2. All of the windows closed with the exception of the install window (as usual), but the progress bar is stuck at "Configuring Installation".
Any ideas?
Cheers!

Try downloading the standalone updater and installing from there. I'd recommend downloading it, then booting into Safe mode (hold the shift key at bootup) and use Disk Utility to run a permissions repair (can take a while). Then install from the downloaded updater and restart the computer after that completes, allowing it to boot normally.
The standalone updater is available here: http://www.apple.com/safari/download/

  • My Air is stuck at Installing 3 items "Configuring Installation" for 2 hrs

    My Air is stuck at "Installing 3 items" "Configuring Installation." For 2 hrs I've tried to install the latest software updates and it gets stuck. The only thing I've done to it 3 times is to hold the power button and try again with the longest I've left it was for 1 hour at the inital install. I've done a repair permissions but my Air doesn't want to install any of it.
    The updates are Firmware for the Air, Firmware for Bluetooth and Safari.

    Looks like the Bluetooth firmware is causing the stalled update. Trying to download this:

  • My Power Mac stuck in installation for Tiger.

    i tried to install tiger to my power mac G5. One of the disks i found broken, and it wont let me exit the installer,
    I dont want to be on tiger, i just want to use my mac.
    Maybe there is a way to either exit the installer, or reboot the mac.
    Thanks,
    PS. my warranty ran out a year ago

    You'll need to power down the Mac, then Repair the Hard Drive.
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

    If it was the 2nd Disc that messed up, That second Disc thing happens frequently, the best way around it is to do a Custom install, and eliminate enough Printer Drivers, Languages, Fonts, and Applications you don't need... then it may skip #2 altogether.

  • Software Update seems stuck on "Configuring Installation"

    i got the automatic update notice for the latest OS 10.5.? i don't remember
    went to download the new software. now its been stuck on "configuring installation" for about the last 15 minutes
    how long is this process supposed to take?

    Give it at least an hour. BTW, make a bootable backup/clone of your 10.5.3 installation before proceeding? If not, tsk, tsk. See these for details:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106941
    http://www.macmaps.com/upgradefaq.html
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/installswupdates.html
    http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/backuprecovery.html
    If you cancel the installation operation, you have a good chance of mucking the OS up. Subsequent recovery is tenuous. If you're lucky, you might still have a bootable installation. If that's the case, then download and manually install the 10.5.4 COMBO update.

  • Can't upgrade to Safari 4 release - stuck at Configuring Installation

    OK, so i've read all topics I could find on this subject (both on and off this forum), and have tried them all, but to no luck.
    my 2 problems:
    - Automatic (software update) Safari 4 release update gets stuck on configuring installation (and yes, I've deleted all "updates")
    - Manual download of safari 4 update gets stuck on configuring installation as well
    I used to have safari 4 beta on my computer.
    I've tried to delete anything I could find related to safari of my computer in hopes it would pass the configuring stage.
    All other updates/programs install fine.
    anybody with the same problem who's found a solution ?

    seems that the safari installed ALSO checked the receipts on the drive "G5". Since this was an old PowerMac G5 drive, it might have gotten the wrong idea.
    You need to "repair permissions" via Disk Utility in your Applications>Utilities folder.
    tried to re-install 10.5.7 combo update, but this stalled at "configuration installation" as well
    The problem with Safari may be symptomatic of other problems on the Mac. A reinstall of the OS using Archive & Install may be the next logical step to resolve the issues cropping up here.
    Hi starman
    See step 1: I've done a repair permissions on all drives already.
    I understand that re-installing OS will solve all this most likely, but since that's a 2-3 day process (with re-installing approx 100 apps, authorizations etc.) I rather find other means to fix this first.

  • 10.5.3 Update stuck at "Configuring Installation..."

    I downloaded the update and then restarted my iMac only to find the installation progress bar to be stuck at a certain point. After 10 hours of leaving it at that, I forced shut down my iMac. Any ideas as to why the update won't work? Maybe I messed up with the OS files... but I doubt it.
    -I recently re-installed Leopard... if that's a problem.

    Thanks everyone with your tips I was able to overcome this issue.
    For those of you who may be found in the same predicament, you can resolve this by going into the HD > Library > Updates and move all the files and folders to your desktop. In each of the folders there is a folder called Packages, launch the file with the .pkg suffix. This is the actual installer. Do this until you find the culprit installer that is causing problems (you'll recognize it because it will get stuck at 'Configuring Installation'). After you have successfully applied all the good updates. Throw everything away (including the plist file) and restart. Launch Software Update and it should redownload the package that was damaged and all other updates.
    Hope this helps.

  • All Updates Stuck on Configure Installation

    Hi, I am having a problem with my updates on my mac mini. I am running 10.5.2. The problem I seem to be having is that when I try to install my updates, for example the new Safari and security update. It will download and tell me I have to restart my computer. I do that then it just freezes on configure installation. It has done it to me three times and this last time I let it sit for 7 hours while I was at work. I then have to hold my power button down to restart the mac and after that it works fine but without the updates. I really hope someone can help me and thank you in advance for anyone with any suggestions.

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    first thing to try is to insert the OSX Leopard DVD and restart while holding down the 'C'-key.
    Then Choose Your Language and you are greeted with the OSX Installation Screen (no worry).
    Fom the Top Menu - choose 'Utilities' and then 'Disk Utility'.
    Let Disk Utility run its Repair routines (repair permissions; repair volume).
    Repeat these repairs until there are no more errors reported.
    Good Luck

  • "CONFIGURATION INSTALLATION" locks up for Leopard 10.5.2

    My computer seems to lock-up when trying to "update" from 10.5.1 to 10.5.2.
    On 6 occasions on different weeks, I let the computer run the configuration update, and on one occasion left it running for 12 hours. It simply hangs up and the blue bar (during "configuration installation) goes about 1/8th of an inch and sits there. I've run this for 7 hours, all the way to 12 hours and the blue bar just seems to lock up. I have to power down and re-boot.
    Can someone advise (in plain English) what the steps are to correct this? Please be gentle, I still think *kernel panic* is when I was making pop corn on the stove in 1956 on mom's electric stove top and unpopped corn goes flying in the kitchen...
    Thanks,

    Start with the basics... Are you installing from Software Update or have you downloaded the combo update and manually run it?
    I would recommend you download and run the combo, and not use Software Update.
    Prior to install, backup everything! Then double check that you have backed up everything! You've been lucky 6 times - don't wait for #7 to be unlucky and render your Mac inoperable before thinking of backup.
    Before you run the updater, power down and restart it. Run Disk util and repair permissions. Check the disk to see if there are any issues with it too. If so, repair these prior to updating (post here for more help as disk issues may not be as easy to repair as clicking "repair disk").
    Just let it do it's thing. If it hangs for more than 30 mins I'd say restart it (it shouldn't take all that long really - hats off to you for having 12 hrs worth of patience!). If it fails again, come back and let us know we can help you through checking out some logs.

  • Providing configuration file for SQL 2012 Express installation which installing HPC 2012 R2

    Hi guys,
    I need to know if there is any way to provide configuration file for SQL 2012 Express installation which installing HPC 2012 R2?
    I am scripting installation on HPC 2012 R2 with default SQL 2012 Express edition but I am not able to find any option to provide a configuation file for SQL 2012 Express installaiton.
    Thanks,
    Vivs.

    Hi Vivs,
    As my understanding, you want to generate a configuration file and install SQL Server 2012 express edition using that configuration file.
    If that is the case, firstly, you could generate the configuration file following the steps below since express edition is run in AutoAdvance mode which skips "Ready to Install" page.
    1.Double-click SQL Server installation file in your local drive, you will see that the file will be extracted to a temporary folder. Please make a note of what directory it is extracted to. For example, it could be in c:\ followed by a folder name which
    will be a set of random letters and numbers "gy7h8hjhhj67rfs7".
    2.Cancel installation. Then click on the Start button on the task bar, click run, type the command cmd.exe, and go to that directory via cmd.
    3.Execute the following command: setup.exe /ACTION=INSTALL /UIMODE=Normal
    4.Follow the wizard through to the 'Ready to Install' page. The path to the configuration file is specified in the 'Ready to Install' page in the configuration file path section.
    5.Cancel the setup without actually completing the installation, to generate the INI file.
    Secondly, to install SQL Server using Command Prompt, go to the SQL Server installation media root (the temporary folder) from the command prompt and specify the ConfigurationFile.ini as a parameter as shown below.
    Setup.exe /ConfigurationFile=ConfigurationFile.INI
    For more information about the process, please refer to the article:

  • I tried to update itunes to the latest version yet it wont update. Im currently getting a error message,from  Window Installer, configuration dat for this product is corru

    I'm trying to update itunes but not very successful and im not making much progress.  Im currently getting a message on the screen from Window Installer quoting configuration data for this product is corrupt while trying

    The path 'C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple\Apple Software Update\iTunes.msi' cannot be found.  Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

    Thanks for the straightforward tip. I had restarted once already, but the second time was a charm. The install button now works. Don't know if it mattered, but I also repaired disk permissions and then restarted in safe mode this time.
    The printer driver is apparently a different issue in itself. It turns out that the my printer, the HP Deskjet F380, has some fluke that makes it incompatible in 10.6. A new driver is coming out from HP according to Rickmeister in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10076690&#10076690
    In case anyone else has the same problem with the F380: Like the user in the aforementioned thread, I downloaded and installed the old HP drivers for 10.5, and now at least I can print in the meantime.
