Software Update's Never Finish Downloading Part 2

Ok so I thought I was done dealing with this but guess not... I am having a hard time updating to Mac 10.5.4. It was an automatic update but every time it gets started I hit a snag about 10 min into it and it "freezes". The computer volume buttons still function so it is not "shut down" but the percentage bar stops making progress....
I took the prior advice and started doing the downloads one at a time but hit a snag with this big one... I have tried manually downloading and that didn't work either, any help???
Isn't technology great??

Why don't you try downloading the update from another computer, transferring it to a thumbdrive and then transfer it into another computer.

My macbook pro stalls during software update and never finishes the update

My Macbook Pro is a 17-inch laptop purchased in early 2011. It's on system 10.7.5. Software Update keeps telling me I need to update.
I click ok, it starts to update, then gets stalled "moving 3 items into place".
I've tried many times to do this update, but it NEVER finishes the update, just stays stalled "moving items into place" and it can stay that way for HOURS. Then I need to go back to work, so I re-start. What's the problem, and how can I fix it?

Software Updates in DMZ BITS download hangs

Hi guys,
i am running into a strange problem when deploying software updates to a DMZ system without internet access.
Here are some facts about the environment:
1 Primary Site: W2k8 R2 / SCCM 2012
1 DMZ system (mgmt Point, sup, dp) W2k8R2 (SQL replication, manual wsus replication) SSL Must be used
The DMZ mgmt Point is not able to download Software Updates. They are listed in the Software Center but they persist with downloading at 0%. Application packages are working fine. Just the SW Update get stuck.
The Boundaries are OK, there are no "IIS request filtering files" inside the updates (e.g just scep definitions), the DP ist up to date, iis bindings are correct (if i install the client certificate in the internet explorer i am able to access the DP.
I already reinstalled the client and created new deployments.
It would be really great if you have some ideas what the problem could be?
Here are some parts of the logs:
it is very strange that "internetproxy.log" looks for a proxy even if the server is the DP itself.

thank you very much for your help!!

Hi Philipp,
I am having this same problem...software updates are stuck at downloading 0% for "internet" DMZ/Workgroup SCCM 2012 clients that communicate with DP/MP in an untrusted forest (no internet access). Normal software packages/programs/task sequences can
download and install successfully.
SCCM 2012 SP1 with CU1 running on Windows Server 2012 on all site servers and site system servers. SQL 2012 SP1 on site servers. Clients using PKI certs. MP and DP using HTTPS with PKI certs.
Similarities are that there is a 207 in the IIS log file when the client attempts to download the update. The rest of the logs aren't very useful because they just stop logging and the client sits in a "downloading 0%" state.
Did you ever resolve the problem? Is anyone else having this problem?
Thanks, appreciate any help I can get.
Darren

have reformatted my Imac using original discs (installed leopard (10.5)) tried to do the software update but it cant download the itunes update and when it gets to the configure update screen after restart for main update, it just gets stuck. HELP!
The configure bar gets about an 1/8 full and then just does nothing. I think its lists the update as combo update? cant remember with out checking.
I have tried to do the disk verify and repair but this has made no difference.
Please let me know what i need to do, I have reformatted the mac just to start over as was clogged with a lot of useless data, I had installed lion (10.7) from the app store previously and now cant seem to find a way to re install lion. I hope I dont need to pay for it again?

If you erased your hard drive, you'll need to reinstll OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard to access the App store. You won't have to pay for OS X 10.7 Lion again. Did you try booting to the recovery partition by holding the command and r keys down? If that's still there, you can reinstall OS X 10.7 from there.
If you're looking to install the current iTunes, you need OS X 10.6.8 at a minimum.
If you're still trying to update OS X 10.5 Leopard, you can download the combo update from here. Download, use Disk Utility to repair permissions, apply the update, then repair permissions again. That will take you to OS X 10.5.8.

ITunes never finished download

iTunes never finished download the music and audiobooks that I purchased, the downloading process didn't have any problem in the begining, but after a while, the file that was downloading didn't appear in the purchased list, and I couldn't find it anywhere in iTunes, if I restarted iTunes or choosed Advanced>check for purchases.. then it appeared again, and being downloaded again from the begining...
The problem repeated so that my purchases are always being downloaded and never finished... they also never resume from the point that have problem, they always are downloaded from the begining.
Windows XP Pro P4 3.0Ghz, 1gb Ram, 700gb HDD...

Same thing happened to me just now. I purchased a single song and it got about 1/4 of the way through and now it is just stuck...***
anyone know what I can do?

Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Sorry this solution is late but I just got off of the phone with Apple support and this worked.
Open iTunes
Connect your iPhone and keep it connected during this entire process.
In the iTunes menu at the very top (File, Edit, View) choose STORE> Sign in and sign into your iTunes account.
Once this is complete look at the upper right corner of iTunes and you will see an iPhone and Store button, cick STORE. Now you will be in the iTunes store where you see the advertisements of the various albums, songs etc. Look on your upper left of the window for your itunes account name and in the black band next to your iTunes account name, you will see a House icon, then Music, Movies, TV Shows etc.
Make sure the HOUSE icon is selected.
Stay on this screen in iTunes and on the lower RIGHT, you will see an area that says- QUICK LINKS. In that area click - Purchased
After you do this you will be transported to another area of iTunes. Here there will be a menu across the top- Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, Books are the choices.
Choose APPS and you will see the apps that you have purchased. You will also see the apps that didn't download to your phone.
Find the apps that didn't download and click the cloud next to their name. Doing this will download the chosen apps to the computer you are on.
Once you have downloaded the apps in question, in the upper right corner click LIBRARY.
Now you should see the button that says iPhone because your phone is still plugged in. Click the iPhone button and then click SYNC on the lower right to sync your iPhone.
The apps you downloaded will now be on your phone.
Sorry for the long instructions but this is what works.

Apple Software Update gets stuck during download.

My daughter was updating iTunes with ASU and we lost power. Now the download gets to about 11MB, gets stuck, and never finishes. It will sit at 11MB forever. I've tried deleting the files in the installer caches, I've tried repairing ASU.
Anybody have any ideas?

I suggest you to upgrade by the alternate and easiest way by downloading from
* getfirefox.com

Firefox 3.6.15 is not downloading on MAC OSX, not via software update nor via manual download. It claims i do not have full admin rights which is not true.

If I do a manual download via FF website, it starts to install, asking if I want to replace an older version of FF. If I then continue, it says that it cannot process as I do not have access to 'certain components'????
I have full admin rights, it is f... my computer. I am running a Macbook Pro on OSX 10.6.6.
FF is giving me more problems lately, a.o. not showing certain flash elements (have latets flashplayer). Anyone else getting annoyed with FF?

I eventually did an archive and install to get 10.4.7 installed on my MBP the last time around. Now 10.4.8 is doing the same thing. Neither via Software Update nor manual downloads of Intel delta or combo updaters will apply. Arg!
Has anyone else seeen this? I've tried applying the update while booted regularly and also in safe boot to no avail.

Set Software Update to never check on client?

For now, rather than figure out Software Update service, which seems more complicated than some other services, I'm going to push updates out over ARD to my clients (>25 Macs). I'm setting up the managed prefs for these clients using Workgroup Manager, and I would like to have the clients never check for software updates. I can't seem to find a managed pref to set this. Does it exist? Or, can anyone tell me the key and other settings to just manually enter this by hand in Workgroup Manager? I can't seem to find the check frequency setting anywhere on my personal Mac (not in /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate nor in the ~/ version). Is there another way to prevent client machines from automatically checking Apple's SU servers short of making that change on every client individually? I guess I could set it before making my NetRestore image, but I'd rather do it through Workgroup Manager.

I don't know how to do it through Managed Client, though I expect that you probably can.
You can do it manually in Terminal.app using 'softwareupdate --schedule off'. To do multiple systems, use ARDs Send UNIX Command function.

Software update window never progresses

i saw similar topics in the 10.5 troubleshooting page (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307005), but nothing exactly like mine.
i'm using OS 10.5.1 now. i've tried to install OS 10.5.2 several times, but every time i do it never progresses. The "software install" window gets stuck on "Installing 1 Item", and the progress bar never moves, and the words "Configuring Installation" appear under the progress bar. What I do?!

I have a similar issue. My Software Update never loads, it takes a very very long time and then times out. thanks.

Getting an error message that unable to check for software update when trying to download new iOS 8.0.2 update ?? Can someone help ???

Getting an error message of unable to
check for software update when trying to update to
ios 8.0.2. Can someone help ??

Howdy there otss1979,
It sounds like you are unable to download the iOS 8.0.2 update either, over the air, or using iTunes. If you are updating the software on your phone in Settings > General > software update I would recommend starting with this article:
Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update
If you are using iTunes, I would use this article instead:
Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes
If you are getting a specific error number, the following article will help you get that resolved:
Resolve iOS update and restore errors
If this does not resolve the issue, could you please write the error message you are getting word for word for me?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling
