Software update NOT WORKING FOR SAFARI
Why Apple doesn't solve this issue, very irritating to go always to Apple website and download from there, any idea to repair this ?
Thanks
Hi Ferro;
As far as I can see Apple doesn't have to fix anything with Software Update because it is working perfectly for myself and the users I help to support.
So maybe if you can give us more details; such as what error messages are you getting, what have you done so far to solve this problem.

Software update not working for Mountain Lion?
A chunk of my client's office 's still using Mountain Lion -- last week, I ran software update for about half of them, and installed the latest Safari & Security updates.
This week, I went to run Software Update on the other half of them, and no updates are available -- even though they're running Safari 6.1.3 and don't have the latest Security Update.
But the Mavericks macs still get updates available.
Did Apple stop supporting Mountain Lion and I just didn't get the memo?

Logic Studio: Software Update not working for Compressor and can't download
I'm a Logic Studio customer. The 3.0.2 update isn't working from Software Update. I've tried to download the installation file separately, but it looks like you need a Final Cut Studio SN to download. Compressor is part of Logic Studio, so we need to be able to update also - without relying on Software Update. Thanks guys
Hello there Brad,
I was thinking it might be a good idea to delete and re install the iMovie and iPhoto applications from the Mac App store.
First find the apps in your Applications folder in finder, and move them to the trash and restart your computer.
Then use this article to re download them from the Mac App Store.

You do not need to use cleaning programs. They can destroy your computer operation as they may already have done.

EasyFind – Spotlight Replacement
Do a backup.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

Mac Book Software Update not working (Software Update does not have any new software for your computer at this time), my current MacBook version is 10.5.8.
As a result I can't update iTunes, version 10.5.2 (This software requiers Mac OS X version 10.6.8 or later)
Now when I connect my iPhone 4, version iOS 6 iTunes can't connect to iPhone (The iPhone "XXXXX's iPhone" cannot be used because it requiers iTunes version 10.6.3 or later.)
so in a nutshell can't use iphone 4, because iTune is not updated and will not update because Mac Book is not up to date and will not update either.
Please help.
Thank you

TS1394 Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)
Software Update NOT WORKING (Snow Leopard)
Hi, I am currently using Snow Leopard 10.6 on my iMac. I opened iTunes and was told there was an update available so I clicked the button to download it. This obviously opened up the 'download' screen with blue bar. The blue bar does not move and the message comes up that the download failed. I have tried troubleshooting, but the message I get is that I am not connected to the internet - which I am.
Please help.Check your iTunes version, it's reporting v10.6.3 here on 10.6.8 and no updates required.
You should be able to download it from here

Apple Software Update Not Working
I cannot get Apple Software Update to work on my Windows XP Pro system. It simply says that new software was found but it did not specify which Apple software needs to be updated. I am using iTunes, QuickTime, and Safari. Any help appreciated!
The latest version numbers (at the time I'm making this post) are:
iTunes 10.6.3.25
QuickTime 7.7.2
Safari 5.1.7
If you're behind on any of those, try updating using installers downloaded from the Apple website:

Could please explain to us how software update is not working for you? Your question as asked it so generic, it not possible to answer it. Maybe if you could be more specific as to how it is not working for you or what is is not doing that is causing you problems.

Software Update Not Working - Stuck at "Checking for New Software"
Hey Everybody,
I have recently been experiencing problems with my Software Update. After I open it, it gets stuck at the screen and times-out after a while asking me to check my network to see if I'm connected to the Internet. My internet is working fine yet the Software Update is still not working. I have tried removing the Software Update pdlist and trying to change the cache.db yet nothing is working. I have run the verify disk and repair disk utility with no result. Anyone got any other ideas other then a clean install?See if the following fixes the problem:
Fix for Software Update
See Troubleshooting Automatic Software Update in Mac OS X.
Delete the following files:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.xxx.plist
"xxx" is a number.
/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate/ (delete entire folder)

Hi
Has anyone experienced that the software updater is not working
I tried already a combo updater and repairing permissions .The updater isn't working.
'time-out code 1001' . 'Your network isn't working properly . '
My internet-connections works fine! Mail and Safari and Explorer no problems.So where do I have to look for a solution
ThanksIt's possible that Apple's servers are busy. This sometimes happens when new updates are made available and during maintenance. Try using Software Update later today or tomorrow and see if there's any change.
Good luck. -
Software Update not working properly
Hi all,
I have been having problems with my Software Update in that I am getting an error message saying "Software Update could not expand the package correctly". This has most recently happened with iPod Updater 2006-03-23.
This is not much to go on, but do any of you have an idea as to what might be wrong?
Many thanks in anticipation.Hi Taylor L.
Thanks for the continued support and sorry for the delay in reply. As I said I am more than a bit inept on technical issues so I am afraid I have no idea how to repair my permissions.
Tried all the other fixes and no luck. I did try and run the update from the .pkg files in the trash folder (moved automatically by Updater when it did not work) and when it comes to selecting a destination the hard drive is nowhere to be found (i.e. there is no destination to select!). Here below are the lines from the Console since the last restart:

On my Mac Mini Software Update is not working as expected. I have this machine setup with multiple accounts and my kids accounts are very limited so they can use the computer safly while I am not home. My account has admin permissions. When I log into the computer and run Software Update it finds many (11) updates. I click install all and go do something else. I come back about 20 mintues later and found the system sitting at the "login" screen. I thought great it finished. Then I thought that was way to fast. So I log in and run Software Update again. You guessed it the same 11 items need an Update. So now I try and update them one at a time. I successfully updated a few items. Then I thought let me update the 4 items that require a reboot at one time. I started the update and left the machine alone for a while. I came back to the system saying I needed to restart. I clicked on OK. The system then said that it couldn't log out because "Software Update" was running. I could not do anything at this point except hold the power button in until the system powered down and I could then restart it.
To me it seams like a problem with the multi-user setup. Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks,
ScottThis did not solve the problem. I repaired disk permissions and deleted all the SoftwareUpdate ".plist" files found in the link. I restarted the Mac Mini. When I tried to run the Software Update for everything it still died. I then ran each update by itself and it worked fine so my system is up to date. However, I suspect the problem will reappear the next time Apple releases many updates together.
I guess I need to figure out the best way to contact Apple directly. And thanks for the info you provided.
