Software Update Fails to Install iLife 09 Updates...

I have a Macbook with all the most recent updates installed, and computer otherwise running smoothly.
I had purchased iLife 11 (and since gave it away to a friend) but was very disappointed with the upgrade, and for various reasons decided to go back to the original iLife 09 that my computer came with.
I had already successfully made the downgrade on my Macbook Pro, by deleting the apps, all its related preference files etc I found by searching my computer. When I went to do the same on my Macbook, I was also able to delete and reinstall iLife 09 without a hitch, but when I got to the point where I ran Software Update is where I ran into some issues...
Software Update recognizes that I have iLife 09 installed, and tells me there are updates to iDVD, iWeb, iMovie and iPhoto totalling some 272MB. Everything downloads fine, starts to install but hangs for a few minutes on "Validating Packages" and soon after I get an error message that "None of the updates were installed" citing an "Unexpected Error". What gives?
I have tried the update a few times, after restarts, fixing permissions from Disk Utility, and searched the web for an answer, and come up empty...
Any help in getting this issue resolved would be appreciated. Thanks!

Start by bypassing Software update and downloading the updates directly from Apple Support;

Install one at a time, repair permissions when all done.

  • Illustrator CS3 13.0.2 update failed to install

    Received an automatic update. When I clicked to install, the update returned this message:
    Installation Incomplete
    Adobe Illustrator CS3 13.0.2 update failed to install
    The update cannot be applied to the product.
    Say what?
    I'm at Illustrator CS3 13.0.1. First time an CS3 update dug in its heels and sneered back at me.
    Anybody got a clue about this? Bad update?

    Ok, guys. This is going to be a bit loose, but may help. It is how I got a failed CS3 update to install. I think but am not sure that the install initially failed due to inadequate free space on one of the relevant partitions. I then believe but am not sure that the retract procedure, which is pretty good in general, messed up the registry 'slightly'.
    - first, the 'this installation failed' was driving me insane, of course. So finally I tracked down that there are logs, and where they are. Translating from a German XP, you will find those logs in: C:\Documents and Settings\YourLoginName\Applications Data\Adobe\PatcherLogs. There's one for each of your CS3 applications, and they are in text, so open the one matching your trouble.
    - these logs get huge, if you've made multiple tries, as they contain every detail. Search for the word ERROR and you will probably find the point of trouble. Time and date stamps may help to locate an episode. There is also a phrase "Patching fails, Rolling back the changes done by the patcher..." which you can look for, which shows just after the original ERROR. There's another message (improperly?) marked ERROR just after, which comments 'Set status to rollback'.
    - Ok, now you can see Adobe's idea why the patcher failed. In my case, it said: "Access denied to the registry key: DeviceCentral.advs\shell\Open\command".
    - Well, in Microspeak that is probably pretty clear, to someone. I went looking for that key using Regedit search, helped by the cue a few lines above in the log saying "Regsirty Hive: HKCR". Presumably they meant 'Registry'.
    - Obligatory message right now. If you have a log like this, and don't grok the Registry well, and know what you want to do about backups, etc., you should stop before even opening Regedit. Get someone who is very dependable and knowledgeable to do a fix for you. Have complete full reinstall backups. Etc.. Better safe than having to reinstall windows from a wiped disk, all your applications, recover all your precious data from right now where you crashed it, etc.. That valuable client project...
    - Anyway, you would know what to do about the one or two key permissions if you are qualified, so would do that. In my case it was two keys which had had their owner (me) permissions completely removed.
    - I mention and explain this detail so Adobe can explain it to their likely installer-builders, who seem somehow very likely to be outsourced and offshore. I have directed such groups, and don't envy the process. But something about the unwind procedure I think broke those permissions. And something about the patch procedure didn't preflight to assure there was enough disk space before getting in deep, which is the preventative side of the problem, or so I think. But I think both sides of the problem need to get fixed, unless the unwind failure might have been in an inability to write the registry.
    - I will refrain from comments I made at the time which show my length of service ;)
    - with all this buried under the layers of 'Automatic updater' activity which really hid any clues, I have to wonder why Adobe doesn't have some method for extracting the failure at least from logs, so this could be given to the support techs.
    - I am also wondering just when and if I will truncate that log. After 5 or so tries getting to the root of issue, I now have just one of the logs at the 33MB point...
    - all this was about something I will probably not use, or much besides prototyping something for a product design, Device Central. But it is very annoying, not to say concerning about futures of a big expensive and very useful package, CS3, to have repeated big failures in the update mechanism. Good to have run it to ground. And I don't do tech stuff for a long time, which shows the level of concern this caused.
    - So, Adobe, please make a better situation for your many and varied 'users'. Thank you.
    A nice holiday season to all, long may it last you (into Asian new year).

  • 10.5.7 update failed to install

    The 10.5.7 update failed to install and I have got the following message:
    The update "Mac OS X Update" can't be installed.
    The following install step failed: run preinstall script for MacOSXUpd10.5.7.

    What might be the problem?

    I also have a problem with the disk permissions. Anytime I launch the 'verify disk permissions' I have got the same bunch of warnings:
    Permissions differ on "System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app/Contents/CodeResources", should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrw-r--r-- .

    May be there is a connection between these two problems?

    The upgrade is not the 11.0.06, but that is an update. The upgrade is what
    you can purchase if you had a previous version of Acrobat (at least AA 9).
    The upgrade is substantially less in price than the full product. With the
    upgrade you also have to have the SN of the previous product available for
    the install. That is why I asked about the upgrade. Once you install AA XI,
    then going to 11.0.06 is a free update (updates are changes in the
    sub-version and are done quarterly or when there is a critical security
    issue).  You can often fix installations by running a repair. In Windows
    that is done either from Help>Repair or from the Control Panel. I do not
    know the equivalent of the Control panel in the MAC. In any case I am glad
    you got it fixed.

  • CS5 updates fail to install

    In the process of updating to Windows 8.1, I've started with a fresh install of CS5 and LR. CS5 installs without problems, but fails to update. It appears to be downloading the updates, but gives the error : "Some updates failed to install", providing a list of all components of CS5. Each component reports "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later". Having tried several times, each with the same result, I contacted adobe customer support using the link provided: Error "This serial number is not for a qualifying product" | CS6, CS5.5, CS5"
    Adobe support confirmed that there was no problem with the serial or license, and referred me to the forum. The forums do not appear to have a clear solution to this issue. Some updates are available for manual download, but it appears not all of them. I'm not sure why the product update installer is included in CS5 if it is not functional. This seems like a possible case of a broken link for the installer, but there does not seem to be a way to update the installer itself.

    I was just referred to the forum as well for the same issue. My serial numbers are verified and registered. I see here that this is the place to go for unanswered questions. I think the main issue here is that Adobe doesn't want to offer support for older products. Likely, Adobe is trying to force us into purchasing the upgraded software. If anyone has found a solution, please feel free to share it with me as well as I have an identical situation.
    Adobe offered that I call tech support. Last time I tried to contact adobe via telephone, it took more than a half an hour just to get a rep on the phone and of course their solution was to buy cs6.
    Best of luck to ya.

    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour

    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:

    Hi,
    to see the cause of Windows 8 update failures, we must look for error messages in the following log files:
    Please run the Windows Explorer and go to the folder "C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\" and copy all files to your document folder, also copy the setupapi.dev.log from the folder C:\Windows\Inf, the "C:\Windows\WindowsUpdate.log" and the file "C:\Windows\winsxs\poqexec.log"
    to your document folder (otherwise you can't upload it), zip all files into 1 ZIP and upload the zip to your SkyDrive [1] and post a link here.

  • Server 2012 (not R2) RODC fails to install Windows Updates

    Good morning all
    Since around October, our 80-odd 2012 (non-R2) RODCs have been failing to install windows updates, rolling them back on reboot. Patches that don't require a reboot are fine. The short version is, please log a call with MS and reference this thread, if you're
    having this issue as currently they're saying they won't fix this!!
    Our product support group opened an official case and reported this with Microsoft and they've found the cause. PLEASE NOTE however, that this relates to RODC and ALL patches failing, not just 3000061 on non-RODC.
    There was some chat relevant to this as originally it was thought KB3000061 was to blame, and a few other people had had the same issue there (see links at the bottom). I think however, that this issue now stands alone as any patch we try to install will
    fail.

    Cause:
    The installer uses SAM API calls to manage the group. It always connects to the local SAM instance. The component also handles an uninstall task in the same function. On uninstall the group is being deleted.
    So the SAM handle is requested with "Create Group" and "Delete" access.
    The error happens because a RODC does not allow any changes and thus returns STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED.
    More information about the prevent from accidental deletion feature please refer :
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773347(v=WS.10).aspx
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc739350(v=WS.10).aspx
    Recommendation:
    This is a Bug in the RODC running on server 2012, However you may do an in place upgrade to Server 2012 R2 and then proceed with the installation of the patch.
    The bad news is this is fixed in 2012 R2 with a hotfix - but it isn't fixed in 2012 and it won't be because.. they've only had one official report logged. And that was by us. So, if you want this fixed, you need to start logging this with MS now.
    What I can say just now is that this isn't related to the registry fixes with WinEVT we've all been trying, it's NOT limited to 2008 that has been upgraded in place to 2012 (our product support group replicated it in the lab with a brand new 2012 promoted
    to RODC) and it IS only happening with RODC. Possible fix might be to make your RODC RW for a bit and install your patches then.

    The error indicates that IIS is returning a "404 not found" error back to the Windows Update Agent.  That might mean that you need to specify the correct port that WSUS is listening on, e.g.:
