The 10.6.5 Update is a pile of

So now im going to reinstal osx snow and stay on update 10.6.4, then i am able to play world of warcaft agin.
On the 10.6.5 Update its total unplay able.
So my question is.
Can i instal and still have all my files as it is now and after that go for the combo updates or do i have to erease all?

There is no provision to rename & save the old system with the Snow Leopard installer. You are thinking of the Archive & Install option provided in Leopard & earlier OS versions, but not with Snow Leopard.
With Snow Leopard you could just run the installer again, & if all goes well it would replace the existing OS with a fresh copy of whatever version the installer contains; however, this will not eliminate any problems other than in the replaced OS files. Bad user preference files, file system corruption, conflicts with third party software, & many other problems that may have caused problems with the latest (or any other reapplied) update will still be there if they were prior to the reinstall.
Moreover, if any file system corruption contributed to the problems, it is likely to get much worse with every install or update unless it is eliminated before applying them. (File system corruption causes files to overwrite parts of each other, become cross-linked, or create other errors that cause ever greater errors, creating a vicious circle.)

  • ERROR MESSAGE: The IPOD cannot be updated.

    Please help!! Have tried everything can think of including, resetting, retrying, restarting, reinstalling and restoring. ITunes automatically starts downloading when you connect but then only transfers the first 50 or so songs in the library, and then says update complete. When you ask it to then update the IPOD through file menu an error message comes up saying 'The IPOD cannot be updated, the disk could not be read from or written to.' There is no problem with the IPOD, because I have been able to update it via another PC, it just won't update via the laptop even though the ITunes has been set up on the laptop as the ITunes I want to use.

  • "All of the Playlists Selected for Updating No Longer Exist"

    My family has 2 ipod shuffles. After purchasing a Nano recently, I inserted the cd that came with it. Apparently the existing iTunes software was removed and reinstalled. At any rate, the library still shows all the original songs, but when the Nano is plugged in, iTunes immediately gives a prompt stating "Songs on the iPod *** cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for updating no longer exist." The library is there, the playlists that were there are there, and I can play the songs on my cpu. Is there anything I can do besides completely uninstalling everything and starting over?

    This message appears every time I try and update my ipod or put photos on. I also get this message:

    Perhaps check for corrupted files--I had this issue with a messed up track/ file, and that kept killing the sync. More here:

  • The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.

    I started getting these errors on one of my lists that has several workflows running on it. The strange thing is it has been running pretty much error free for 1.5 years and we have not made any changes to the workflows and no updates have been applied prior
    to the errors staring.
    It is typically always the same workflow but it doesn't always happen, only some of the newly added list items will error. If I simply cancel the current instance and manually start it again it runs fine to completion and it only seems to error out
    at the start.
    Most of the other workflows pause/wait for a status change but I will be reviewing all the workflows to confirm there is no locking conflict. I have added a Wait to one other workflow that I know will update the list item on startup, it is populating
    the Title column but even after that I am still getting the error.
    I noticed in the TraceLogs, 2 errors that started on Feb 2 and I could not find them in any previous logs (went back many days with no occurrences).

    Any suggestions on what could be causing the sudden errors. I will be reviewing all other workflows but as I mentioned previously, this system has been working great up until Feb 2 with no changes to the lists or workflows for 3-6+ months.
    Thanks in advance.

    Our SPF 2010 server is relatively small to many setups I am sure. The list with the issue only has 4456 items and there are a few associated lists, eg lookups, Tasks, etc see below for count.

    Tasks = 7711  (All workflow tasks from all site lists)

    Workflow History = 584930 (I periodically run a cleanup on this and try to keep it under 400k)
    Tslips = 3522 (Engagements list can create items here, but overall not much interaction between lists)
    A few other lists that are used by workflows to lookup associations that are fairly static and under 50 items, eg "Parters Admin" used to lookup a partners executive admin to assign a task.

  • The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information. Outcome: Unknown Error

    Received this error (The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.) recently on a workflow that was
    working fine and no changes were made to the workflow.
    I have tried a few suggestions, i.e. adding a pause before any ‘Update’ action (which didn’t help because the workflow past this action without incident); checked the data type being written
    to the fields (the correct data types are being written); and we even checked the list schema to ensure the list names and the internal names are aligned (they
    are), but we still cannot figure out why the workflow is still throwing this error.
    We located the area within the workflow step where it is failing and we inserted a logging action to determine if the workflow would execute the logging action but it did not, but wrote the same error message.
    The workflow is a Reusable Approval workflow designed in SharePoint Designer 2010 and attached to a content type. 
    The form associated with the list was modified in InfoPath 2010. 
    Approvers would provide their approval in the InfoPath form which is then read by the workflow.
    Side note - items created after the workflow throws this Unknown Error some seem to be working fine. 
    We have deleted the item in question and re-added it with no effect. 
    Based on what we were able to determine there don’t seem to be any consistency with how this issue is behaving.
    Any suggestions on how to further investigate this issue in order to find the root cause would be greatly appreciated?
    Cheers

    Hi,
    I understand that the reusable workflow doesn’t work properly now. Have you tried to remove the Update list item action to see whether the workflow can run without issue?
    If the workflow runs perfectly when the Update list item action is removed, then you need to check whether there are errors in the update action. Check whether the values have been changed.
    Thanks,

  • My iphone 5s won't show up in itunes after the 11.1.4 update. How do I connect it so I can sync music again?

    It's been about three weeks since I was able to connect my phone to itunes. When I connect my phone to my computer, it will show up on the desktop, and I can sync my photos, but itunes doesn't recognize it. I've tried removing and downloading itunes three times, and have restarted my phone and nothing's changed. I know there's nothing wrong with the usb cable or my phone. I'm pretty confindent that it has something to do with the 11.1.4 update. Does anybody know how this can be fixed?

    Hello macr888,
    I would be concerned as well if my iPhone was not recognized by iTunes.  Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue.  I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

  • Can you help me interpret the following lines in UPDATE rule?

    Hi,
    Can you help me interpret the following lines in UPDATE rule?
    1. What is the role of role of u201CCHANGING RESULT.u201D and u201CCHANGING lc_local_value.u201D?
    2. What is the role of the CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY', in particular the Exporting and Importing parts?
    3. Can I say that u201CCOMM_STRUCTURE-ORDER_VALu201D in the subroutine is passed to u201Clc_document_valueu201D in the u201CFORM loc_curr_convertu201D; and further passed to u201Cforeign_amountu201D in the u201CCALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY'u201D?
    4. Finally, what becomes of my original u201CActual Goods receipt quantityu201D( 0GR_QTY ) which I am writing the routine for? I donu2019t see any where in the code that it is being referred to? Do any of these codes affect the value of 0GR_QTY?
    5. Also, if there are 3 different subroutines in the INCLUDE and I am making the change described in #4 above, how do I know which of the 3 subroutines to call?
    ===============================
    ===============================
    So I am reviewing a transfer routine in for u201CActual Goods receipt quantityu201D and routine an INCLUDE statement: INCLUDE RS_BCT_MM_UPDATE_RULES.
    The update rule also includes the following properties to run the following subroutine in the Include:
    IF u2026..
    perFORM LOC_CURR_CONVERT
               USING    COMM_STRUCTURE-ORDER_VAL
                        COMM_STRUCTURE-DOC_DATE
                        COMM_STRUCTURE-ORDER_CURR
                        COMM_STRUCTURE-LOC_CURRCY
                        COMM_STRUCTURE-EXCHG_RATE
               CHANGING RESULT.
    I verified in the INCLUDE (RS_BCT_MM_UPDATE_RULES) and the subroutine is as follows:
    FORM loc_curr_convert
      USING    lc_document_value
               lc_date
               lc_document_currency
               value(lc_local_currency)
               lc_rate
      CHANGING lc_local_value.
    conversion of lc_rate from floating-point to decimal. Necessary for *
    call of CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY.

    lc_rate_dec = lc_rate.
      IF lc_document_currency = lc_local_currency
      no conversion necessary -> Main case 1
        AND NOT ( lc_document_currency IS INITIAL
               OR lc_local_currency IS INITIAL ) .
        lc_local_value = lc_document_value.

      ENDIF.
    ENDFORM.

    HI,
    Thanks so much the explanations.
    I just verified again on our dev system and the update rule for 0GR_QTY (Actual goods receipt quantity) include the following:
        perFORM QUANTITY_CONVERT
           USING    COMM_STRUCTURE-CPQUAOU
                    COMM_STRUCTURE-po_UNIT
                    COMM_STRUCTURE-base_uom
                    COMM_STRUCTURE-numerator
                    COMM_STRUCTURE-denomintr
           CHANGING RESULT
    Now, in the include, I also found:
    FORM QUANTITY_CONVERT
      USING    QC_SOURCE_VALUE
               QC_SOURCE_UNIT
               VALUE(QC_TARGET_UNIT)
               QC_UMREZ
               QC_UMREN
      CHANGING QC_TARGET_VALUE.
    i.  Does it mean it actually does quantity conversion?
    ii. If you have access to the INCLUDE I will appreciate some hints on what the subroutine QUANTITY_CONVERT is doing. It does not appear do to be saying anything about quantity conversion; but it is supposed to be doing something with the parameters being passed from the update routine.
    iii. In your response to #5, after all the computation in the INCLUDE, what comes back to the Update rule  i.e. what comes back to become the value of 0GR_QTY?
    Is it the u201CRESULT.u201D in the update rule or u201CQC_TARGET_VALUE.u201D in the subroutine in the INCLUDE.
    iv. So, am to create an Update rule for 0PSTNG_DATE and the source is BUDAT; and I need to write a routine using the include INCLUDE RS_BCT_MM_UPDATE_RULES.
    I looked through the INCLUDE and identified all the subroutines in this INCLUDE as follows:
    QUANTITY_CONVERT
    LOC_CURR_CONVERT
    GET_WEEK
    WEEK_DAY
    QUARTER_DAY
    --Does it mean that to use this subroutine, I can only use the USING parameters of one of these listed subroutines?
    --Also, does it mean that because 0PSTNG_DATE is a date, I can only use one of
    GET_WEEK
    WEEK_DAY
    QUARTER_DAY
    --Or, are there other includes to be used for 0PSTNG_DATE
    Thanks
