Software update package for SnowLeopard on April 1st?

Hi. Am new to this forum. This is my first post.
I got a message about software updates while connected in an aiport lounge on April 1st. I made the mistake of accepting without checking what was in the package. It turned out to be a rather big package, and though the WiFi connection was fast it took about 10 min to download. When shutting down to restart after download, the blue screen with the little spinning wheel just stayed on for 15-20 minutes - so finally I shut down the computer and restarted.
The problem is that this update does not display in System Settings where all previously installed updates are listed.
Any idea what this update was and why it doesn't show?
Should I roll my system back to before I got this update using Time Machine?
Thanks in advance for you help!

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
It sounds like you shut down too quickly, while it was installing. Fortunately the 10.6.3 update can be rerun and it should pick up where it left off. But under the circumstances I think you'd be better off with The standalone 10.6.3 Combo Update
Let us know. And yes, it is a large download.

Software updates package at install pending for a secondary site

Hello all,
For the last 2 weeks I have been fighting ore secondary server that will not download a software updates package. It continues to say "install pending" I keep seeing the same message in the Distmgr.log on the secondary server. I
have checked the despoil.log, sender.log and replmgr.log and do not see anything that sticks out as being a error. I have other packages that can be sent to this distribution point without any problems so I know the permissions are ok.
I have removed the packaged and added it back a few times and waiting day between removing it and adding it back.
This all started when the drive ran low on space and this was the package that ran the drive out of space. My best clue is in the distmgr.log file I see it says package JFG0001ED requires a newer version (5) and the current version is 4. The
problem is the distmgr.log file on the primary server is trying to push version 8 and that is the current version going to the other distribution points. It appears that the secondary server is trying to get an different version than the primary
server is serving up.
I have also removed the distribution point role from the secondary server and added it back. I'm pretty sure recreating the package will fix the issue but since it is an update package it is almost 5GB that I would have to resend
to 40 other DPs.

I would remove the package from that distribution point. Once that is done, and it's not waiting for a new version, you can try sending again. Assuming you now have the space for it.

Why distribute Software Update Packages to DP's?

I recently integrated WSUS with SCCM 2012 and deployed my first update package, I distributed it to our DP's at each of our facilities and then deployed the package. I am seeing results but it looks like all my clients are going directly to the Active
SUP for the updates instead of grabbing them from their DP's (which is causing my admins to flip over bandwidth usage). If the clients can only grab the updates from the SUP itself what is the point of distributing the software update package to them?
Is this things running as intended or should they be looking to their DP's for this? I have already investigated the option of setting up secondary sites and creating downstream SUP's but I am seeing conflicting forum posts mentioning that the DP's should
handle to update downloads so I don't want to commit to reorganizing our SCCM infrastructure when there is a simpler solution to this.

Yes the SUP was previously the Upstream server for our stand alone WSUS environment, when we integrated WSUS with SCCM we cleared the GPO directing PC's where to get updates from so that it would not interfere with the default client policies I have set.
Interesting point about the DP on the SUP, it does have a DP role assigned as it was the DP for our corporate office. I know the boundaries are configured correctly because my software packages are downloaded by the clients from their local DP's, I even double
checked this to make sure they were not assigned to this DP for some reason. We have the CAS set as the fallback point as well so I don't think that is why either. Our CAS has a DP role and could serve as this for our corporate office, would it be worth a
shot to clear the DP role from the SUP server and see if this reassigns the WUA managed server for the clients?
<![LOG[Enabling WUA Managed server policy to use server: http://NAME OF SUP.DOMAIN.LOCAL:8530]LOG]!><time="08:36:20.522+360" date="02-26-2014" component="WUAHandler" context="" type="1" thread="3924" file="sourcemanager.cpp:938">
That is an excerpt from the WUAHandler.log on one of the clients at a one of our facilities, would this be the correct place to see where it is downloading the update from? My network admin originally tipped me off to this when he was noticing high bandwidth
utilization from our facilities and traced the packets out to our SUP. I edited out the name of the SUP but I know this is the assigned SUP for my Primary site.

Large Software Update Package size.

Not sure if this is normal or not, but I noticed that our Software Update Packages are HUGE. I've noticed a few things.
Office 2010 Updates are being downloaded for ALL Languages - even though I've only selected English.
I see multiple updates being duplicated. For example:
ie11-windows6.1-kb3021952-x64 - I have two of these files, that are same exact size
(50mb) but they are in two different folders.
One is in D:\Source - Updates\February Updates 2015\c2b0814b-b278-4826-b44d-5054771f93d8 the other is in
D:\Source - Updates\February Updates 2015\4178f1cf-204e-4969-aba8-79a537c9ba45
Is this normal? I typically have one SUG/deployment pkg for each month for both Server/Workstation and office packages, and this month my package is about 3.5 gigs..
Is this normal?? Thanks to anyone that can set me straight!

Hi,
In System Center 2012 Configuration Manager, we’ve added the capability to automatically remove software update content from distribution points when that content is related to expired updates. This process helps manage drive space on your distribution points
by removing any content you no longer need.
Also, please refer to the thread below:

Recreate Software update packages

Hi,
I am working on a new environment where I would like to reorganize the software update packages. Currently, they are organized in 3 types:
- Workstation update packages (W7,8,8.1)
- Server update packages (2003,2008...)
- Application updates (Office...)
For each type there is one package per year (ex: Workstation update packages - 2014...)
Since (per year) I have one package for servers and another one for computers, I end up having the same update twice in 2 different packages (IE update in that case).
I don't think it's a big deal but I would like to "clean" it and regroup it under only one package per year ideally that would contain computer, server and office packages.
Is it possible to reorganize the packages or should I re-download all the updates ?
Also, since I have 3 ADR (Server, computer, Office), I was wondering if it could cause an issue if the three of them point to the same package and are launched around the same time after Patch Tuesday.
Thanks.

Hi,
>>Is it possible to reorganize the packages or should I re-download all the updates ?
If the updates need to be downloaded do not exist in the package, they will be redownloaded.
>>Also, since I have 3 ADR (Server, computer, Office), I was wondering if it could cause an issue if the three of them point to the same package and are launched around the same time after Patch Tuesday.
I think this is OK.
Best Regards,
Joyce

How do i Install the Software Update Server for Windows 7?

How do i Install the Software Update Server for Windows 7? I get an error saying: Can't Install the Software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
I downloaded the software so How do I install it?
Do I install it all over again or when I have windows open?
I am using Bootcamp.

Back up your system drive completely. If you have no backup plan in place, now would be a good time to start. You can use CarbonCopyCloner to make a complete, bootable backup of your system on another drive or volume. After you have done this: download the combo update using the link supplied by Niel and run the installer.

SCCM 2012 Software Update Management for Windows Servers and how to automatic set SCOM maintenance mode?

Hi,
We planning to go one level higher to automat and have more dynamic Software Update Management for Windows Servers. We have SCCM 2012 R2, SCOM 2012 R2 and SCO 2012 R2.
Our plan is to pur server in an AD-Group to get Update Schedule, from the servers will be importet to an Collection for Automatic Update and reboot. If I understand Everything right SCOM can't read AD-Group and put then in an Schedule maintenance mode. SCOM
can read reg value as exempel.
IS there any smar way to make the SCOM Maintenance Mode Schedule dynamic?
I found this
http://www.scom2k7.com/scom-2012-maintenance-mode-scheduler/?
/SaiTech

You could use Orchestrator to put the servers from a specific collection, or AD group, in maintenance mode in SCOM. For an example see:

Software Update Checks for Updates at Start Up Even When Off

I had problems with Software Update struggling to updating my Macbook's firmware (I solved it by updating the firmware outside of Software Update with Installer), I am now having problems with Software Update.
Software Update checks for updates everytime I start up my computer - even when I have Software Update checks turned off in System Preferences. Is there a way to correct this?

I, too, am having this same problem. However, I'll need a little patience from everyone. The last Mac I used was an SE30 and now about 15-18 years later I have 3 PC desktops and 3 PC laptops in my house. But... I'm exploring getting back to Mac and have a MacBook Pro that's exactly 10 days old. No problems until 2 days ago and now every time I boot, the little software update icon is bouncing on my Dock. It searches and then tells me there are no updates to install. Pretty annoying having it do this every start up. I've checked apple>system preferences>software update and unchecked it (so that it should be off). Still shows up on next boot.
So, I tried to follow your suggestion about top level HD > preferences, but haven't quite figured out the Mac OS enough to know where these preferences are that you're directing me to. Could you possibly be a bit more granular for this Mac novice?
Thanks a ton. These little system annoyances are why I've decided to try and break the PC grip on my life and it's a little disappointing to already have one on my mac. At least on the PC I know how to get rid of these things, but I'm still learning this Mac stuff.
Thanks again,
E

Software Update Page for the Galaxy S4

Has anyone noticed that on Verizon's Software Update Page for the Galaxy S4 it is displaying update I545VRUDMI1? We are currently at update I545VRUEMK2 which is two updates after the one that they have on the Software Update Page.

Probably not for a while since they are talking up the S5 having 4.4 and the S3 and S4 not. Trying to screw us over some more.

Software update instructions for Nokia Asha 501

Hey,
software update instructions for Asha 501 can be found from here:
http://www.nokia.com/global/support/software-update/new-nokia-asha-software-update
By default your phone is set to automatically check for updates every 8 days and you will be notified when an update is available for download. If you want, it's possible to force the update check immediately by switching off and back on "Check via mobile data" setting from the “Phone update” menu. The size of the update is around 8 MB, so it's recommended to use Wi-Fi for the download.

Dear Nokia Software Employee,
Thank you for the new nokia 501 update.
However I am interested to get another new update concerning:
1) Wireless configuration:
It will include security mode of 802.1x, and EAP plug-in settings such as EAP-LEAP, EAP-PEAP, etcc....
2) Keep applications minimized instead of closed:
Sometimes there are some applications need to be minimized and not to be closed
Ex: Applications such Athan, Prayers, Quran, etccc...
3) Some Applications menu not working with screen touch but working with key buttons
There are some applications that you cannot use the screen touch under the menu
I will be greatful if the software will finalize the above suggestions
Thank you and Best Regards

Hello,
Perfectly fine working iPad and I attempted to load the software update provided for settings. Now all I get is an on again off again apple. Attempted hard reset to no avail. iTunes no longer recognizes the device. So......? what? how? where?
Thanks, Richard

And one more point, I am not an Apple user. This is my first experience and have had to learn as I go. So any explanations please break it down for a noob. I am fairly computer geeky but when it comes to Mac or Apple or iAnything... I have zero experience.

Software Update Packages and binary differential replication

Do Software Update packages have any differential replication built in, or do the update packages just re-deploy the full package when updates are added or removed from it?

All ConfigMgr content replication always uses file differential replication so no to your question, only the changed files are sent. BDR wouldn't help unless and actual file is changed at the binary level which, to my knowledge, never happens with software
update files, and typically only happens (and is of value) with large files like OS images (aka WIMs).

Source version of software update package is getting modified

Hi
In what condition does the source version of package get updated.
I have a software update package created, suddenly saw its source version got updated.
Regards Sushain KApoor

There are only two ways the version (of a software update package) is incremented: you manually trigger a package update or you add updates to the package (which in turn triggers a package update).

Local Apple Software Update Server for Windows

Has anyone figured out, how to use Leopard's Software Update Server, as a local Apple Software Update Server for Windows?
As you may know, 10.5 Software Update Server downloads, not only mac updates, but the windows' version of them as well (e.g. Safari, iTunes for windows).
There has to be a way to use that new feature.

{quote:title=Apple wrote:}
Software Update Server is capable of automatically mirroring updates between
Apple’s software update server and your local server to guarantee that the most

Software update asks for restart before installing the updates. When restarted password is asked. After the restart the software updates have not been installed. how come?

Software update ask for a restart before installing the updates. After the restart password is asked. When given the computer is restarted but the software updates have not been installed. How come?

This article
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57400956-263/apple-issues-software-installe r-update/
explains what might be going on.
I noted that one of the updates in the list for my wife's iMac was an update to Software Update itself. Probably to fix this very problem. But it wasn't being applied due to Software Update itself not working.
I considered two solutions.
(1) Uncheck all the updates except that one update to Software Update. Then after fixing Software Update, apply all the other updates remaining. I did NOT try this approach.
(2) Download and install the "combo update" for 10.6 -- from here
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1399
I decided to try solution #2. It's a large download, 1 GB, but the whole process took less than 15 minutes. The "combo" update checks and reapplies every update since the beginning of 10.6, so if something is missing or amiss, it gets filled in. It's done manually, by downloading the update, opening the .dmg file, and running the update. When I did this, it fixed the Software Update issue because I then reran Software Update and additional, new updates were found and they all installed fine. Software Update was working as it should. I then ran it a third time and some additional ones were found, also then successfully applied. Finally, no new updates were found by Software Update, which mean everything is up to date.
I can't be sure if your issue is the same as mine (the bug in the CNET article above) but I'm guessing that the combo update will resolve your issue.
