SCCM Reporting: Software Updates / Apllication the "Installed date" is missing or null in reports

When the “V_GS_Add_Remove_Programs” or “V_GS_Quick_Fix_Engineering” queried for installed date (the views that contains information  on updates/application
installed date),  the “installDate0” Column returns “Null” or is
"blank" on most of the rows.
The machine in this example is “X”
2. As you can see from the machines X's add remove Programs installed Date is given clearly.
Appreciate your help on this as its for an audit report of windows updates and applications installed date, I know that some applications do not populate this value but my argument is if its visible from Programs and Features why isn't the data being collected.
Best Regards,
Michael

  • 24" iMac won't install any 'large' Apple software updates from the internet

    I am having a serious issue with my iMac and neither the people on the phone at Apple Care or the 'Geniuses' at the Genius Bar have been able to assist. So, maybe someone here can:
    First - here is the background information about what happened and what I've done:
    A few weeks ago when the new iTunes 10 came out I went to upgrade. The upgrade failed it said. So, I thought perhaps Apple was having issues with the new software or something. So, I thought - Ok, I'll give it a day or two.
    I come back and try again from Apple.com - no luck. Hmmmm - well, I just happened to see my 'software update' icon pop up and there was iTunes. I thought "Great! Now I'm sure it'll install!" No luck.
    So, I think - well, perhaps I've done something to corrupt my profile. So, I create a new profile and try again. No dice.
    So now I'm really confused and figure - ok, let me try a partition and I'll try again. Still nothing.
    Finally I figure - ok, something is wrong here. So, since nothing is working I backup my music and important files and wipe out the hard drive and start over. No luck. And, in fact - since I had gone back to 10.5.4 or whatever - software updates needed to install to get me back to 10.5.5. Those wouldn't install through software updates OR when downloaded from Apple.com - Smaller downloads like, flash, java, firefox, etc - all download and install without issue.
    I decided to engage "Apple Care" and they call me at the time I specified and we begin to do some tests on the hardware and everything came back ok. We tried from Apple.com and software updates again - still won't install the software. Keeps coming back with "Software installation failed" something about the package installer was corrupted during downloading.
    The guy at Apple care thinks perhaps its my network corrupting something. This begins to make a little sense and I think, maybe he's right. My wireless router isn't that great so, maybe I'll just go replace it. However, while I'm checking out I begin to think that maybe its NOT my wireless router - because I do have 2 other computers in my house who haven't had issues downloading anything. So, this is unlikely. But, I didn't like the wireless router anyway - so I went ahead with the purchase.
    I get it home - set it up and try again. STILL not working. So, I make an Appointment at the "Genius Bar". I take it in - show them the screen shots of the errors and we get started. They try to do the install of either iTunes or the combo update on THEIR network - still won't work. The genius thinks I have a bad HD and takes the computer for 2 days to look at it.
    I finally get to go pick it up - excited that I'll have my iMac (which I use for work) back and functioning again. I go pick it up and they decided that it wasn't my hard drive - but likely my RAM. They couldn't prove it was the RAM but figured since I bought the RAM after I bought the iMac that this must be the issue (even though it was up to exact Apple standards and was from Crucial). So, I think - well, while I have a blank slate I'll go ahead and install Snow Leopard. So, I pick up Snow Leopard and get new RAM too and go home to install.
    I get the computer home, put the new RAM in, install snow leopard and get ready to work! After snow leopard install is done - it has some new updates it needs to install. And the update FAILS to install again. Oh, and they never replaced the HD.
    So, I call Apple Care again - they have no clue. They suggest making an Apple Genius Bar appointment. So, I take it in again. They run diagnostics on it from their 'Triage' external hard drive and everything checks out. He says its probably the hard drive (same conclusion they came to the first time) and said that they would replace it.
    I get the computer back - take it home. Everything is up to date. All the software updates were back in place including iTunes 10. However, I still want to test and see if I can download iTunes and/or do updates. So, I uninstall iTunes and download it again. Same problem. STILL won't install any large software downloads. But, again - Smaller downloads like, flash, java, firefox, etc - all download and install without issue. Just no core Apple updates or things like iTunes will download and install on my iMac.
    I then took it to a friends house - set it up on his network - same issue.
    So to sum up:
    I have re-imaged the hard drive several times
    I have replaced the ram
    I have replaced my networking hardware (even though other machines on the network have no issues)
    I have taken it in twice to the Genius Bar and they still haven't fixed it
    The Problem followed the machine and exhibited the same issues in store as it did in my home (so we know the problems stays with the machine)
    I have tried it on yet a 3rd network and the issue still exists
    The people at the Genius Bar told me that If I still have issues then its with my network - even though its been proven it wasn't.
    Its only larger downloads like Combo Updates and iTunes that won't install.
    Any ideas? Sorry for the long post but its been quite an ordeal.

    Yes, I have tried the updates directly from the Apple website and a different issue occurs. When I do that I get various different errors - the most common saying 'Codec overrun'. This has happened both before and after complete software OS reinstalls (Completely wiping the HD clean).
    I did a video of my issue on my iPhone. I had to cut it and compress it to get it off my phone without syncing (because I can't sync it since I can't get iTunes installed now). So, its about a minute long if anyone wants to see it:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8leWwEoIeXI
    And yes, we tried to repair permissions a couple times but didn't seem to have any effect on whether it would install these updates. Again, it's NOT all software downloads/installs. It seems to be limited to LARGER pieces of software. Example: Firefox, Flash, Java and Silverlight have all downloaded and installed without error on my iMac. Apple combo updates and iTunes won't install at all.

  • I performed a software update and the system is installing an update but it has been running for over 24hrs and keeps saying "This may take a few minutes, don't shut down your computer" Can anyone help?

    Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
    This happens the same whenever I try to install.
    To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
    My plugin is still showing as out of date.
    Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.

  • How do I know if the Maverick software update has been installed on my mac?

    How do I know if the Maverick software update has been installed on my mac?

    It will not download if you already have it.
    Just to be 100% clear …
    Look in /Applications for "Install OS X Mavericks"
    Use the Finders Go menu > Applications. To open it.
    You may have an Applications folder in your Home directory too, it shouldn't be in there but it is possible.
    Also try Spotlight to see if it can find that filename.
    Can you also tell us what system you have?
    Apple menu > About this Mac > more info button… What is the Model (under the Overview tab).
    10.9 doesn't install on all systems, so it could explain why you can't get it, however it usually displays a dialog stating that fact.

  • Cannot install itunes 7 because os 10.6.8 is needed. I select software update and the 10.6.8 is not available to be downloaded. I'm trying to load itunes to the iphone5

    If you're using a PowerPC Mac, you can't.
    If you're using an Intel Mac, phone the online Apple Store and order a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD.
    If you don't know, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu.

    My macbook air is stuck at the "installing software updated" screen while installing update for the osX. What should I do?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If your Mac has been installing software updates for a long time, Software Update is probably frozen. Hold the Power button until your MacBook Air turns off, and turn it on again. OS X should start up.

  • HT4623 I download the software update but the update did not installed

    I download the software update but the update did not installed

    Did you do this download on the phone, or in iTunes? If on the phone, after the download did you select install? Same with iTunes, did you select update and install or just download? What did it do? Is anything showing on your phone?

    This list comes from WSUS which in its default, newly installed state is out of date. The list is however updated every time that WSUS in synced and the catalog is updated in ConfigMgr. Thus, you simple need to initiate an update catalog sync from within
    the ConfigMgr console by going to the Software Updates -> All Software Updates node and choosing Synchronize Software Updates from the ribbon bar or right-click context menu.

  • Report that can display the installation date of an application or program

    Hi,
    Would like to ask if anyone knows a built-in report in SCCM 2012 that can display the installation date of an application or program, either it was through deployment with SCCM or through manual installation?
    Thanks in advance!

    Got this to give me the report that I wanted but eliminating some entry on the SQL Query that
    Peter van der Woude gave. Here's the Query I used to display the computer name, name of software, date of installation and day since installation of the software.
    SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT
    dbo.v_R_System.Name0,
    dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS.DisplayName0,
    dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS.InstallDate0,
    DATEDIFF(Day, CONVERT(date,dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS.InstallDate0), GETDATE()) AS [days since installed]
    FROM
    dbo.v_R_System INNER JOIN
    dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS ON
    dbo.v_R_System.ResourceID = dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS.ResourceID
    WHERE
    (SELECT ISDATE(dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS.InstallDate0)) = 1
    GROUP BY
    dbo.v_R_System.Name0,
    dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS.DisplayName0,
    dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS.InstallDate0,
    DATEDIFF(Day, CONVERT(date,dbo.v_GS_ADD_REMOVE_PROGRAMS.InstallDate0), GETDATE())
    Thanks

  • Software updates will not install...  error message

    Software updates refuse to install for several weeks/months... backed up to six or more updates... cannot get any help from apple unless i pay them 75 dollars but i am sure it is something simple... when i attempt to update, i put in my pass code, they download and when they go to install the error message says "none of the checked updates can be installed, sorry an unexpected error has occurred" vague enough for you? Can anyone help me out, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    What happens when you run Software Update?
    Get MacJanitor and run the Maintenance scripts. When it's finished quit MacJanitor and restart your Mac.
    Have you checked the hard disk for errors?
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window where you see Capacity and Available. Make sure there is always 15% free disk space. Not enough disk space can cause directory corruption.
    If you cannot boot from your install disk, try booting in Safe Mode

    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
    If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...
    See the Using iTunes Section Here...
    How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    To use iCloud you have to have iOS 5 or later.

    I am having exactly the same problem right now. After some research, it looked like my HD was toast. I replaced it today, that part was easy, but now I cannot seem to use my original Install Disk to format the new HD. I get a grey restart screen, or if I get to the Language Selection screen, my cursor is frozen in left corner and I can't use it.
    Very frustrating, hope someone else has some ideas!
    PS My MacBook was about same age, and "expired" in exactly the same way as yours.

    Upgrade the computer’s OS, or switch to a product such as Firefox.
    To upgrade, open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.
