Software update fixed with 10.4.3!!

I'll be darned - an update actually fixed one of my problems! Software Update would run automatically every day, but would never report an update unless I updated manually. Now today I get a Java upgrade and it happened automatically! Thanks, Apple, for fixing the problem you caused in a previous OS update!

I had a similar problem (not sure if it was the same error #) with updating. I deleted my Caches folders (or just the contents) and rebooted (~/Library/Caches and /Library/Caches) and it fixed the problem for me.

Iphone 3G Software Update Fixes security vulnerability associated with viewing malicious PDF files?

Is there an Iphone 3G Software Update Fixes security vulnerability associated with viewing malicious PDF files? Latest version I can download is 4.2.1
I assume no fix is available, does anyone know if I'm still vulnerable to the security bug?

No fix is needed since that vulnarability isn't in 4.2.1.

Major Sync and software update issue with windows 7 and iphone

Loved my iPhone 3g and love my 4.0! My only concern is syncing and software updates are sporadic.
When I first purchased and sync'd my 3g on my laptop, that I had since 2005 w/XP home 64bit, it would constantly (1 out of 5 times) show phone was disconnected and could not sync. Purchased a desktop, 2009 w/Vista 64bit (same issue mentioned continued) then upgraded to windows 7 64bit (same issue mentioned continued).
Both pc's are authorized and contain the same apps and software. I went through all trouble shooting steps (authorize/deauthorize, phone hard boot, sync w/airplane mode on and/or off, uninstall and or reinstall iTunes, etc...) when both phones would brick after software updates on both pc's.
The last software update 4.0 and most recent 4.2.1 went well on laptop with XP and no longer shows sync issue. The problem continues on the windows 7 and backup has completed successfully 3 times.
Long story short, I have to pray the laptop never dies because iTunes, syncing and software updates on XP works now! The problem with software update, backups and syncing persists on windows 7.
* I was able to apply 4.2.1 software update on XP and then connect to windows 7 to sync and backup successfully. I then disconnected/reconnected iphone to windows 7 and problem happened again, unable to sync phone was disconnected error message.

I've had my new pc for over a year, never had any probs syncing my iphone (then a 3G but now the big 4!)
I went to sync updates to Apps and a couple of tunes I had downloaded straight to my phone only to get an error message 'iTunes has stopped working - windows is checking the problem' followed by another messaged telling me there was a problem causing the program not to work correctly. Windows will close the program and notify me if a solution is found'
Well..... I have NO music on my iPhone and every time I try to sync, the same error messages come up and the bloody program shuts down....

Is Open Software Updater compatible with firefox?

The popup, Open Software Updater, keeps coming in and wants me to download it to keep firefox up to date. Is open software updater a valid firefox updater?

hello logdenfarm, updates are handled automatically & internally by firefox (you can always trigger a check for updates manually in the firefox ''menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] > help [[Image:Help-29]] > about firefox'').
so there is no need for external updaters, which might in some cases also bundle unnecessary or malicious software - i'm not familiar with the program you have mentioned specifically, but if you receive poups form an unclear source you should probably run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

IPod Software Update failed with iTunes 7

Just installed iTunes 7 and after connecting to my iPod it wanted me to update to firmware 1.2 but everytime I click on download it fails.
"iTunes could not contact the iPod software update server because you are not connected to the Internet."
That is very funny because without the internt iTunes wouldn't even be able to get the information that an update is available....
So the diagnosis doesnt help anything either but I am posting it, maybe somebody has a idea:

How would a software update fix iPhones taking yellow pictures?

I am one of the unlucky owners of a yellow picture taking iPhone 4. I have read seveal other threads where people say that hopefully this can be fixed in a software update. Pardon my lack of iPhone prowess but I was just wondering, wouldn't writing a universal software update to fix the problem in one phone then change the software in a properly working phone, in turn potentially causing problems in those phones? In other words, how would they write a software fix that would KNOW which iPhone needed the correction while not impacting the iPhones that are already working fine?

I think all iP4's have this issue but it depends on the lighting. I have tested this on my phone and seven others. Outside in sunlight (about 5500K lighting) it works fine and white balance is very good. Under my Modeling Lights (3200K) still very good but when you get down to low wattage (40 watts) incandescent lighting (2500K) photos are very yellow. I think all iP4's suffer from this, at least the seven that I tested including my own. A software update can fix the way the white balance is corrected.

Software Updates Fail With Permissions Error

Three recent software updates (Security Update 2008-02 v1 & v1.1, Aperture 2.1) have given me problems when using the default mode where the Software Update Systems Preferences application downloads and installs in one continuous sequence. The Security updates both failed with a permissions error at the end of the download, saying they'd move the Package file to the trash where I could install it manually. Neither one actually placed anything in the trash though. Instead I downloaded the installer disk images from the direct link at Apple.com and installed the Package from Finder. With the Aperture installer the error was something about an inability to expand the installer. This time I performed a "Download Only" in Software Update then ran the installer once the download was complete that way. This worked too.
So far I've run a permissions repair from Disk Tool and changed the read/write permissions on the /Library/Updates folder as suggested in an earlier thread. Neither had any effect on subsequent updates. What should I try next?

I just ran into this and what was happening to me was I had SU to automatically download updates in the background.
But I have 2 user accounts i use, so it was downloading the package under user A and I was trying to install via user B.
So i just deleted the old file in /Library/Updates then re-downloaded. I could have also just changed the permissions on the file.

What did Apple Software Update do with my Mail??

I can't open my Mail application version 4.5
I downloaded the recommended Software Update sent to me from Apple on my MacAir
The following message flashes when I attempt to open my Mail
"You can't use this version of Mail with this version of Mac OSX"
I tried the suggestions from Apple - still no Mail

My guess is that Mail was included with OS X version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard from 2010) also.
Here are two downloads that might help:
1. OS X Version 10.6.8 supplmental update: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1429
2. Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard): http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586

Software Update advice with wrong website address.

I've just received a Software Update notification, but the website given for obtaining further information appears to be wrong. After clicking it, I received the response "Document 307051 not found". The suggested search was also unsuccessful.
The updates offered were to Java for Mac OS X 10.4 Release 6 and Quick Time.
I'm hoping that somebody from Apple may see this and sort out the problem, but I can't rely on that. Has anyone got advice for me as to how else to draw the matter to Apple's attention?

You didn't perchance ever visit a site that insisted you need a QT Player update to view Video did you? It intercepts some DNS requests & redirects, don't install it...
http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/trojanosxdnschanger.shtml
I think some IMs do this as well as Spammers/Scammers.
If you need updates, or think you might, either use Software Update, or better yet visit Apple>downloads.

Safari 3.1 from software update hangs with 2% installation complete

I tried to update safari via software update and each time the OS restarts to complete the install it hangs around the 2-3% installation complete. I also installed the security update and that seems to have completed properly (although now i'm not sure)
When i restart the mac by holding in the power button the OS boots up but safari won't start from the dock and the update is still listed in software update.
I would download it from the apple download but would like to resolve any problems that might be stopping software update working properly

Did something similar myself. Used timemachine to roll back safari to before the update and used that version to download the update from Apple.
I tried to get the download from a windows machine but I guess Apple were trying to be helpful and detected that I was using a windows machine and internet explorer so wouldn't show me the mac editions of the download. (would have liked a direct link to the other editions (mac/intel mac/PowerPC) on the download page because every search i entered brought me back to the same page

Does 1.01 software update fix the freezing Apple logo porblem?

Been on holiday since before this was released and therefore not hasd a chance to check. I have my iPod classic 160GB with me and it seems to be working sweetly with 4,000 tracks (30% of my library). This is the most I could ever sucessfully upload despite trying with 2 different models. I love the interface, even if it is slowish and the sound quality is good too. I don´t want to have to return another one, this time for a refund as will miss the good things about it.
I return from holiday on Sunday and would like to think that the freezing issue has been reslove via the firmware update (or iTunes 7.4.2) but cannot find any confirmation of this. A lot of the posters with this problem appear to have gone away. Does this mean it´s fixed?

Hello !
I have a ipod classic 160gb, and i updated it to 1.0.1, but my itunes was 7.4.1 while synching. I have the apple-logo-freeze problem when i try to synch my whole library. The Update to 1.0.1 didn't change anything!
So far i found out my ipod is working with "almost" all playlist synchronized, it's just one playlist-folder i can't synch or it will freeze. But i already tried to synch that folder first without the other music, then it works flawless, but when filling it up with the rest, it freezes again, it's really annoying, i can't localize the problem at all. It seems like the ipod won't work with all the playlists on it. Well, trying now to update itunes and do the whole thing again... for about the 9th time

IPhone 4 Software Update: Problem with Contacts!

I recently updated my iPhone 4 software. Now when I open up my iMessages only the phone number appears at the top of the message like so: +1(781)555-5555. The contact name appears when I receieve a pop-up notification, but not when I actually open the message. And I have all of my contacts with their proper phone numbers. This only happens with select contacts. Any ideas? THANKS!

Wierd... If it's only a few select contacts I would just write down the contact information, delete the contact and recreate it.

Help!!!Software update -problems with ITUNES?

After updating my Apple TV - I can sync everything but ITUNES.
What am I doing incorrectly.
When I go to computer on the menu- I am taken to a menu that effectively says -if you continue all your Itunes will be lost [they are not there anyway.]
I have restored to factory settings and reverted to original menus etc. and that works fine.
However I would like to use the updated software....
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lu

Try to update again. I am sure that will work,was only a fluke.
What you have to lose, another factory restore.\\Make sure that your iTunes is the last version.
Good luck!

Software Update Problems with Internet and links xperia L

Since the last Update my xperia L has Problems
Google chrome can not be opend via Icon
Google search is possible but if you want to Open any link it cannot be opend (no New window)
Internet is only available via wifi but not with the smart phone supplier (tmobile) - resulting in no access to Internet

Strange! Try to remove the battery from the phone for a while and then try again. You can also start your phone in safe mode to see if the problem may be related to any 3rd party apps installed in your phone:
