Sleep after the security update

I just installed the March 1, 2006 security update on my imac (10.4.5, 2GHz G5 20"). Since then, it's had trouble sleeping - sometimes I need to select SLEEP 2-3 times before it kicks in.
Anyone else see this kind of behavior change?

iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

That did it (so far). I had repaired permissins, but hadn't thought of restarting.
Thanks for the hand

After the security update I can no longer save or save as in Adobe Illustrator. I tried the Rosetta Fix to no avail.

After the security update I can no longer save or save as in Adobe Illustrator. The program has become useless. I tried the Rosetta Fix to no avail. How can I fix this?

I'm assuming by "I tried the Rosetta Fix to no avail" that means you downloaded and installed the 10.6.8 Combo Update? Is that correct, Apple hasn't posted any fix so you need to be specific about what you mean.
Please look over

is that the fix you are referring to?

The 10-Step Program to Overcoming Kernel Panic Syndrome
Apple finally replaced my MBP, as well, but they made me jump through hoops and waste days of self-diagnosis and prayer offerings to the Kernel Goddess.
1) Kernel panics began about a month after purchase and within 30 minutes machine became unresponsive.
2) Apple replaced logic board.
3) Kernel panics began within days of picking up machine from Apple Store following logic board replacement.
4) Called Apple Store and was told to wipe the drive and do a complete reinstall (a pain since I would also have to reinstall Parallels, Windows and Windows apps).
5) Called AppleCare to get a 2nd opinion. Technician told me an OS X archive and reinstall, which is less obtrusive, should fix it. He also said if kernel panics continue afterwards, hardware is defective and Apple Store should replace.
6) Did an archive and reinstall of OS X. Kernel panics continued. Apple Store refused to replace machine, and instead insisted I do a complete reinstall.
7) Ran Apple system diagnosis tool (one of the CDs the MBP came with) in looping mode for 8hrs. No issues found. Kernel panics continue.
8) Completely wiped the hard drive and reinstalled everything from scratch. Kernel panics continued.
9) Apple Store refused to replace machine.
I purchased the MBP Core Duo in early October, shortly after which Apple released the MBP Core 2 Duo. I began to wonder if Apple's reluctance to replace my machine was due to the fact that they may no longer stock Core Duos, so any replacement would effectively be an upgrade, at least in terms of chip speed (2.16GHz to 2.33GHz).
10) I asked the Apple Store if the "unearned upgrade" was why they were dragging their feet, and if so, I would be willing to pay the difference because my entire job is run off of the laptop. They finally agreed to replace my MBP Core Duo with a MBP Core 2 Duo. The C2D came with 2GB RAM whereas the CD came with only 1GB RAM which I upgraded to 2GB at time of purchase. So my only out-of-pocket costs were to pay for the extra 1GB RAM (I kept the additional Apple 1GB RAM from original purchase because Apple could not except used RAM in the exchange).
So far, the new MBP C2D has not had any kernel panics (hope I don't jinx myself now). I had to be very persistent, and I documented the cr*p out of everything (calls, emails, kernel panic log, visits to stores, calls to AppleCare, hours spent diagnosis, reinstalling).
Hope everyone gets their kernel panics resolved. I lost days of productivity and years off of my life from the stress of stomping around my office, cursing like a wounded pirate.

HT201366 Can anyone else terminal out of their home directory after the security update on the weekend?

syntax: machine:~user$ cd \
That SHOULD take me to \volume1\
However what happens is terminal hangs at > and does nothing and I remain in \volume1\users\homedirectory
so I tired BASH. Same thing. Terminal just hangs as if it doesn't know what to do.
I've verified that all three of my Mac's are doing the same thing after this weekend. The only reason I was alerted to this, is a Firend called me with the same problem and asked if the syntax was correct.
cd .. seems to work but only one level at a time where as cd \ would take you right to volume1.

You've been spending too much time in Windows.
Use the other Slash.

Applications crashing after latest security update??

So i was prompted to download the new security update and the newest version of iTunes today. i do so, and upon start-up, i open adium and try to chat with a friend. before it could even open the IM window, adium chrashes. I updated adium and it still does the same. I then attempted to see if there were additional updates and the Software Updater also crashes instantly. i havent noticed any problems with other programs yet, but can anyone help me out on this one?
and the problems didn't start until AFTER the security update was installed

Some general advice on updating:
It is worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, as they have all been extensively beta-tested, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first to an external hard disk. Ideally you should always have a bootable clone of your system that enables you to revert to the previous pre-update state.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site.
The Combo updater of Leopard 10.5.8 can be found here:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/MacOS_X_10_5_8_ComboUpdate
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Full details about the 10.5.8 update here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3606
More information on using Software Updater here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.5.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.5.7 to 10.5.8. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications and turn off energy saving and screensaver.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them compliant with the latest version of your operating system. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 4.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
If you are updating Safari (or just have):
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed an OS update and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party add-on.
Additional tips on software installation here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
• /Library/InputManagers
• ~/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later).

Vertical stripes after latest Security Update 2008-004 for OS X Tiger

Hi there,
I'm experiencing vertical stripes and color issues on my PB G4 17 inch screen after the security update 2008-004.
Funny thing is, a screenshot looks fine.
I already resetted PRAM and NVRAM. Didn't help.
Does anyone know a solution?
Thanks,
Phil

It's probably got nothing to do with the upgrade.
I guess your computer is about 15-20 months old and the serial number starts with W84 or W85.
This is obviously a common problem among these serial numbers, and it starts after about 15 months.
I've got a mint PBG4 17, that's NEVER left the house. Just turned it in on AppleCare repair (32 days left, phew) for this problem.
This number series is assembled in Shanghai in 2005.

IChat AV after last security update

it looks like that the last security update has made something to iChat. Everybody is having problems. My iSight in my iMac (updated) stopped streaming video in iChat after the update, while my Macbook (not updated yet) works perfectly. Any idea anybody?
Thanks

Let me be more specific about my problem. After the security update in my iMac C2D, every time I try to do a video conference through iChat with AIM buddies my image freezes when the conference starts.
I can see and hear my buddies and they can hear me, but they don't see me. I see my image frozen. The iSight green light is on. iSight works ok with other applications and even with iChat before the conference starts.
I don't have the problem with my Mackbook using iChat with the same buddies. I have not updated the Mackbook yet with the security update.
I'm using a Bellsouth DSL modem connected to an Airport Express router. Both macs are using airport to connect to internet.
Any ideas?
Thank you!

After installing security update 10.6.8 I've seen dialog boxes asking me if I will permit certain root processes, e.g. configd, to receive unsolicited messages from the internet. What are the consequences of denying these requests?

After installing security update 10.6.8 last night I've seen dialog boxes asking me if I will allow incoming network connections to certain root processes, e.g. configd. I didn't see these dialog boxes prior to installing 10.6.8. How do I make informed decisions? In other words,
(1) Where can I find 25-word summary descriptions of these processes?
(2) Where can I find discussions of the consequences of granting or denying these requests?
Alternatively (and at some risk of revealing metaphysical doubt) why am I being asked for these permissions? And who expects me to make correct decisions?
I have turned on th standard-issue OS X firewall and am running my system in stealth mode.

After installing the security update from 21.04.2015 my Phone does not start any more

Hi everybody,
I have installed the update 10052 for my Lumia 535 DS and now it can't be started any more. When starting the phone the two gears appear and start moving but than it's turned off. This happens each time I'm trying to start the phone. Any suggestions to get
my phone running again?
Alexander Allmendinger

Hi Chris, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I think your choices are to...
Reapply the Security update...
http://support.apple.com/downloads/SecurityUpdate_2008_008__Client_PPC
Reapply the Combo update...
The combo update for PowerPC-based Macs...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateppc.html
Repair Permissions afterwards, reboot.
If all the above fails, then it appears to be time for an Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
Just be sure to select Preserve Users & Settings.
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if the Disk Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows what could happen!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates.
I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

After installing the Security Update 2015-002 many system app icons have switched. How can I fix this?

I Installed the Security Update 2015-002 on March 13 on my 13-inch Macbook Pro (mid 2010) running Yosemite. However after it rebooted many of the system app icons have switched places. For instance: The delete button in finder has the icon for Full Screen (while others are just plain white). And the button for New Message in Mail now shows a search icon. Please see screengrab below.
IS there a way to fix this mess without having to manually change all this?

I have some new info on the issueI thought I'd share with you.
First of all, I've installed Photoshop CC on my SurfacePro (Windows 8) and do not have the lag issue there. It's very similar hardware to my MacBook Pro. So the issue must have something to do with my MacBook.
After a lot of tinkering I discovered that it is my 27" Thunderbolt Display that is causing the brush lag. When I unplug it and only use my built in 13" screen the brush lag is gone. Aha!
I tried every available option in the Performance section but nothing helped. Again, Photoshop CS5 with attached Thunderbolt Display doesn't have a brush lag issue.
I'd be interested to know everyone else's setup who is experiencing this problem.

What do I do after I got an error after trying to download the security update?

What do I do next when I got an error after trying to download the security update?

Thank you for providing these details. It makes helping you much easier.
You have a 16GB iPad, but have only 2.4GB available. This is likely contributing to the issue. This amount, 15% of the iPad's storage capacity, is the minimum free space you should have. But when updating iOS, you should expect the new version to use somewhat more space than the old. I believe going to Settings > General > Usage and freeing space will help with your issue.
Another recommendation would be to use iTunes on your computer to do the update instead of over-the-air.
I believe either one of these would help you. Both would be at least as good.

After a security update I get the log on screen for a site which I use which then immediately reverts to the starting page of the site without a chance to log on

The site in question had no problems until the security update.
If I log on using Firefox 3 there are also no problems.

Hi:
Just had a similar problem.
(And I think the solution might apply to Leopard Server as well as client versions of Tiger and Leopard.)
Last night, I applied the 2009-001 security update to our PPC Tiger Server. I did it via a download from Software Update, controlling the server's screen remotely from home via ARD.
Upon restart, I could not longer see or control the server via ARD, but the mail server was still working. ssh prompted me for passwords, but wouldn't let me connect.
So I came to the office this morning and found a blue screen and a spinning wheel cursor.
I tried a number of things, including:
--Starting in safe mode (it wouldn't)
--Single user mode and running fsck
--Repairing permissions using Disk Utility (via a start-up CD)
--Repairing the disk using Disk Utility (via a start-up CD)
--Resetting the PRAM
--Disconnecting peripherals
Then I saw a tip on-line somewhere and reinstalled the security update in the following manner:
--Download the update from Apple's downloads page on CPU-matching hardware (that is, a PowerPC Mac.)
--Connect via FireWire Target Disk mode.
--Double-click the installation package and install it on the server's hard drive. (This didn't work the first time I tried installing from an Intel Mac.)
--Restart.
And the server restarted and away we go.
I've got some mail server issues to repair (it appears), but at least it's running again.
I have not tried restarting again to see what happens.

Not able to connect to base station after last security update

Since the lastest update came out, I am no longer able to connect to the same base station I was once able to connect to. I get my DSL through SBC, and the station is a 2Wire Gateway. My mac mini still is able to connect, since it didn't have the security update. Did this happen to anyone else when they got the airport update?
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I've got a similar problem. After the "AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001" was installed, i am only able to surf for approximately 30 minutes. Then my connections to the Internet stops working. When I disconnect and reconnect to my Accesspoint, my MacBookPro is unable to get an IP over DHCP. If I manually type an valid IP, the System Settings show that my Airport is connected to the Accesspoint and has connection to the Internet but it still doesn't work. The only thing that helps is to go in the "sleep mode" ("ruhezustand"), when i wake up my MBP i am able to surf for further 30 min, but even this doens't work always. When I tested the connection to the accesspoint under windows on the MBP everything worked fine.

HT5549 trouble putting iMac to sleep after installing this update?

I can't put my imac to sleep anymore after installing the security update for Java. Is anyone else having this problem?
Fran

I had the download file open all the time and closing that has solved (looks like) the problem. However, this was not an issue while I use the regular mouse.
