Software Update Right Now Not Working!

I know there is a Software Update right now, its Update 1 for Java for OS X Lion updating java to SE6 to 1.6.0_29
So I run Software Update on my Mac and it advises all software up to date!
I checked the version of Java I have, its the old version.
So what is going on, is there a problem with the Software Update software on my Mac, why dosen't the update show up on my Mac, it has done for the past three years so why not now.
Or is it something which is being rolled out around the world to stagger the strain on servers, they never did this before?
Or should I just update direct from the Apple Update page?
Thanks
Phil

Apple did some maintenance, maybe it has influenced the Software Update as well.
You can, of course download the installer from Apple Downloads and install it http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421
I updated yesterday without problems using Software Update.

  • App store, Safari, software updates, icloud, do not work in Mavericks 10.9 using a proxy server

    App store, Safari, software updates, icloud, do not work in Mavericks 10.9. these problems are interrelated I am sure. Apple apps were working fine in 10.8.5 I could do software updates through a proxy server using password authentication. I reinstalled a new system 10.9 on another partition and it won't let me use Safari or update software using a proxy server. Firefox works fine (I am using it to post). I am very disappointed that this wasn not fully tested BEFORE releasing Mavericks. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.

    I had this problem myself.
    Checked the system log with Console, and I found the entry:-
    Nov 11 11:16:41 teds-new-mac.ad.mycompany.co.uk ocspd[537]: Authentication challenge received for "10.203.39.212:8080", unable to obtain proxy server credential from System keychain.
    For some unknown reason, Mavericks seems to be looking in the System keychain, when these credentials are actually held in the Login keychain.
    So, I tried "Copy & Paste"  - copying the https user name & password from the Login keychain and pasting into the System keychain, which worked but it's not quite as straightforward as I initially thought.
    Pasting into the System Keychain was, I found a not-very-intuitive process:
    Having opened your Login Keychain, click once on the item to be copied and when it's highlighted, select "Copy" from the Edit menu or, of course, cmd+c.
    Select the System Keychain:- DO NOT CLICK THE PADLOCK IN THE TOP LEFT TO UNLOCK IT.
    From the Edit menu, select "Paste" or cmd+v.
    You will then get a dialogue box,, enter your administrator's password and select "Modify Keychain" or just hit return, as it's the default entry.
    I found a restart was in order before it recognised everything and would accept https pages without alert boxes, but YMMV.
    Funnily enough - and this is where it seems counter-intuitive, if you do click on the padlock and unlock the System Keychain, "Paste" is greyed out in the Edit menu and cmd+v has no effect.
    Exactly the opposite to what I'd expect..

  • Apple software update and safari not working

    Apple software update says "could not connect verify a connection with the app store". Safari wont even display google. Both apps open up initially.
    <Edited By Host>

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Try the action that you're having trouble with again. Post any messages that appear in the Console window – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into a message.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • Just upgraded to 10.4.7 by Software Update - Avid dongle not working

    I upgraded as I always do thru the Software Update - so it's the combo. Never really had problems like this before.
    I had to reboot many times to get the desktop to come up - ran disk utilitly and fixed permissions and disk - no many errors. All fixed.
    But can't run Avid Xpress pro - Avid says its a dongle combatability issue and is working on it.
    I am asking here because I am lookin for other ideas - and I know there are many people with problems right now. I haven't used very many applications yet because of the holidays.
    Someone already tried to go back to 10.4.6 with no luck.
    Any suggestions.
    PowerMac G4 Dual and PB G4 17'   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    FYI - there has been an unofficial fix that works -
    download the driver for the dongle.

    It works.
    i am on 10.4.7 and was freaked when it didnt work but this driver did the trick

  • TS1702 How can i load sibeluis scorch ,because since the software update it will not work any more, before it worked well ?

    How can i load sibelius scorch, before the software update it worked well,now it will not work, even re down loading it will not hold, please help?

    That would appear to be a Mac program, so posting here in the iTunes Store forum isn't likely to get you any useful advice. If this support article from Sibelius doesn't help:
    http://avid.force.com/pkb/articles/en_US/FAQ/en362435
    I'd suggest asking in the Sibelius forums or contacting Avid/Sibelius support.

  • Software update for iPhoto not working

    Hi Software update tells me that iPhoto and GarageBand have updates available. The version number on my OS Mountain Lion are older than what is shown in update. But when I try to do an update it tells me that the software is already installed and to go to the apple menu to update software. But that only brings me back to the app store update window, right back where I started.
    How do I get these apps updated?
    Thanks
    Steve...

    Download them from Apple page if you purchased it in a disc > http://www.apple.com/support
    If you purchased it in App Store, delete them, open App Store > Purchases and download them

  • I have always been able to connect my Ipad to the tv with the HDMI adapter but since most recent software update it does not work.  Is it me or has others expeirenced this?

    I have tried to stream movies and live TV using my HDMI adapter and cable .  I have always had it work but with the most recent update it no longer will connect.  I hope someone has a good solution.

    It still works for me.
    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • HT4623 The software update option is not available under my general tab...now what

    The software update option is not available under my general tab...now what

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases - you may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.

  • HT1688 I tried to update my iPhone 5 this morning with the new software update and now it won't turn on. When I plug into my itunes account, it says my phone is in recovery mode. Was working perfectly prior to the attempt to update. How do I fix this?

    I tried to update my iPhone 5 this morning with the new software update. Now my phone won't turn on. When I plug into iTunes, it says that my phone is in recovery mode and that it needs to be restored to factory settings. Is there a way to fix this without losing my settings? Why would this happen on a software update?

    That is not what it says. Read the message again. It's telling you it has detected an iPhone in recovery mode and it must be restored.
    Restore it. You don't have a choice at this point.

    The update to iOS 5.0 & higher is an erase/restore deal, so make sure you follow the directions here to update your phone:

    iOS 7.0.4 will be installed.

  • Updated ATV and now: Not working

    Purchased Apple TV and set it up last night. All was working fine.  Prior to going to bed I initiated a software update.  Now there is an image on the screen that indicates I am to plug it into iTunes?  Nothing works when I try to use the remote to access the menu.  Read through the manual and followed instructions to reset the ATV.  Nothing is working.  Please help.

    The update didn't apply properly. It is telling to connect to your computer via micro usb and restore using iTunes.
