Hi to all,
I tried to update my nephew iphone 4 version 4.3.4 (8k2), I did back-up everything before attempting to update and the result when I click down-load and update, it does not update instead it says, itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet. I did check my wire-less connections and the connection from my PC to wire-less is hundred percent okay. I did search using google.com to confirm and my connections is good. Is there any problem regardings my firewalls or any help will be appreciated. Thanks

HP Printer Driver Update 1.1.1 not showing up in software update

i have a HP HP Deskjet D4260 attached to my macs, but the 1.1.1. update doesn't show up in software update. (as 1.1 did)
i read here
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/hpprinterdriver111.html
that the update will only be visible if the printer is connected to your computer or a print queue has been created for an earlier version. well they are.
any suggestions here as i remember that with 1.1 there was only about 100mb installed of the total of 450mb.

here it states that the DeskjetD2400 series drivers are still at 2.3.2. but i thought that with these updates also general printing software is updated

11.0.3 update not showing up in software update.

I am currently running itunes 11.0.2 on OS X 10.8.3. Checking for an upate for itunes from within the app indicates an update is available. Choosing to download it brings up the app store. App store checks and retruns that no updates are available. Any ideas? I guess I could go ahead and download the install image for 11.0.3. Just curious why it isn't showing up.
thanks.

ITunes 9.1.1 does not show up in Software Update

I am aware that iTunes 9.1.1 is availible for download at Apple's website, however for some strange reason iTunes always alerts me to upgrade to 9.1.1 but when I open Software Update it says that "Software Update doesn’t have any new software for your computer at this time." I am currently running iTunes 8.2.1 if that helps any, and I would just like to know why the newest version does not show up in my Software Update and if there is anything that can be done to fix this.

Update 10.9.1 not showing up in 'software update'

Late 2013 MBA
fully updated on 10.9
keynote, pages, numbers updated also
all firmwares and camera raw updates complete
basically it is fully update BUT is not offering 10.9.1 at all
I tried to push each of the offered versions of 10.9.1 to the machine via task server also but the machine wont take any of them
so that plus the fact that the update to 10.9.1 is not even offered to me in software update is very confusing
does any one have any advise for me?

Have you tried going to the App Store and finding the update there? Or getting the updater from the Apple Downloads site: OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 Update

App store not showing up in software update.. Any work around for this?

When I run software update it runs and then says that all software is up to date. I don't have an option to install the app store.. Is there any other way to install it?

I totally understand the confusion. That's how I ended up here on the discussion. I am running 10.6.5, so according to Apple's instructions below, this should have worked. Apparently, they need to correct their instructions. Here's what the App Store page says about installing it:
The Mac App Store is available as a free software update for Mac computers running Mac OS X v10.6 or later. If you have an earlier version of Mac OS X, you will need to upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
1. Update your software.
Click the Apple icon, then choose Software Update. A dialog will appear on your desktop. Click the Install button in the dialog to begin the installation. You will be instructed to restart your Mac to complete the process.
Thanks for clearing it up.

About bash bug update being available but not showing up in software updates???

Apple has posted a Bash Bug update (as of 9/29/14) for various versions of OS X. It can be downloaded on the downloads page. But why doesn't it show up as an Apple update on the Software Updates page???
When I go there it says "there are no updates available". What's up with that???
thanks.. bob

Ipods not showing up after software update

Since updating to itunes 8.0.2.20, I cannot access my ipods. I have three. When I plug them into my desktop machine (XP home), I hear the sound that indicates a new USB device, and the ipods will show that they're connected and charging.
But: they don't show up in itunes, so I cannot add or delete anything to them.
Please advise.

Why is safari 5.1.2 not showing up in software updates?

I am running Lion server and the Safari 5.1.2 update isn't there.
Any ideas?

Thanks Wardy22, that indeed did it. Annoying that it's a bit obscure but it works.
CAVEAT EMPTOR:
I host updates for Lion and SnowLeopard on the same box. I see that there are 2 Safari v5.1.2 updates. One is 47MB (Product ID:041-2852) and the other is 38.3MB (Product ID:041-3552). I little digging in the sucatalog file shows that 2852 is for SnowLeopard and 3552 is for Lion. If you've got a mixed environment, you've got a problem!
It seems silly but if this is supposed to be an update server, why should I have to choose a version of Safari? Shouldn't ALL updates be available? I'm just saying...

Security Update 2008-008 No user window.

I do apologise if this is the incorrect discussion group, but I couldn’t find a email address to report this so I thought I would post it and it may eventually get to the right people.
I’ve just updated (using Software Update) the latest Security Update 2008-008. The Mac was running perfectly beforehand (all updates and security updates to date).
When using the Mac I regularly switch between user accounts, however I have found that after the update if I log out of a user account (with no admin privileges) the main user accounts window does not appear. (I am left with the desktop picture of the account I have tried to log out of and no menu bar.)
The only solution I have found to this problem (in each instance after the initial one, I have waited for 5 minutes to give the system a chance) is to hold down the power key until it switches off the Mac. The Mac then starts up fine and displays the user window, from there I can choose which account I want to use.
As I switch between these accounts throughout the day, shutting down the Mac, between switches, will seriously impede getting anything done.
Nevertheless, the above problem does not manifest itself when I have logged out of the admin account, this appears to be working as it should. The list of user accounts opens and I can choose an account as normal. Additionally, the problem does not appear if a user account is already open and I am logging onto another account from the fast user switching menu.
I realise the short term solution is to have an account open all the time, but this is not ideal, as the open account I am sure, will be using resources unnecessarily.
If however, someone has a more substantial solution then I would be most grateful for the suggestion.

Accounts are numbered 501, 502, etc. as the computer sees them, so that's the origin of the multiple trash folders. Each account has its own trash.
As you can read in an earlier post and through the links, safe mode does move some things to the trash so it does act as a temporary purge of items.
I just tried reading the file about what the most recent security update changes. I don't really understand most of it but I didn't see anything that specifically said log out modification to me. It is pretty hard trying to resolve logout issues and you seem to have this strange combination of accounts that work and don't work.
One thing you haven't done but could try is booting from your installer disc and run Disk Utility's repair drive (not permissions but drive). Actually, running Applejack does a reduced version of the same thing but it's worth a try if only to see what it reports about drive condition.
Dock. I am not sure what the dock would have to do with this. You could try removing the com.apple.dock.plist file from your home directory > Library > Preferences folder. Just move it to someplace else temporarily and see if that clears up anything on a logout.
It appears that this Secuirty update 2008-008 (10.4.11) is causing an ever increasing circle of problems as more posts are appearing in various places on the Internet.
This happens after any kind of update, but especially an update which changes components of the operating system. It is really a matter of matter of perception. It looks like there's a lot of problems because the hundred people who do have problems post here to ask about the problem. What you don't see are the thousands (millions?) of people who do not post because they did not have a problem.
There's been recent discussions as to what steps are truly necessary in doing a minimal problem update.
I think #1 to which all agree is to make sure you have a backup of your computer in case you do need to back out of it again.
Some like to boot from their installer discs or an external backup and verify (and if necessary repair) their internal drives as well as drive permissions. This is done with Disk Utility.
You can also go to the step of booting into safe mode to do the install.
I like to download the update onto my computer and install it from there rather than let Software Update do it. I know a few people who had problems with doing the update via software updater found a manual install to work.
Repair permissions again afterward.
It also helps to only install one update at a time and to run the computer for a while to make sure it is behaving well.
Almost all of the above steps (except backup) have been questioned as to necessity because probably many people have done successful updates without doing them. I say they can't hurt, they can very likely do good (especially if your computer isn't regularly maintained), so why not do them to be safe.
I cannot bear the idea, but having spent the last 20 or so hours trying to solve this problem, I am left with reinstalling the entire system from scratch. I cannot believe that this is my only alternative. And for the moment at least it will remain on the shelf.
Well, I am not a computer expert (just another Mac user with a few years on the clock) and I am running out of ideas. Maybe somebody else will happen by who can figure out what is going on. Can you think of anything that is different about the problem accounts that makes them different from the others? Any special software installed?
Incidentally, how much free space do you have on your hard drive? Sometimes stragne issues can arise if drives are getting over full.

OSX cannot boot-up after installing Security Update 2008-008

Hi Everyone.
I'm using a MacPro 2 x 2.66Ghz Dual Core Intel Xeon with 3GB RAM with Tiger 10.4.11.
After installing Security Update 2008-008, my OSX was not able to boot-up. The screen shows the Apple Logo and the spinning grey gear wheel. It stayed that way for several hours.
I finally switched it off and re-installed OSX 10.4.8 using the Start-up disk that came with my MacPro.
Now I've updated the OSX, all the software & updates EXCEPT Security Update 2008-08. My MacPro works fine now.
Was Security Update 2008-008 the cause of this problem ?
Sincerely,
Azman

Was Security Update 2008-008 the cause of this problem ?
Probably not directly. Very likely something was not quite right on your computer before the update and the update happened to exacerbate that. A number of people feel that optimizing the maintenance of your computer before doing the update and doing the update under controlled conditions minimizes problems.
There's been recent discussions as to what steps are truly necessary in doing a minimal problem update.
