Tiger Auto Update cannot find server

I have not been able to go to auto update and download updates and have to do it manually. When every I press auto update is says Software update cannot connect to the update server. Check your internet connection (which is always checked to be ok and online all the tine) can someone help me.
Not getting any errors just the above.
G4 Quick Silver  Tiger Operating Software and otherwise running very well.

Hi, that can be a stubborn one, but...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions.
Try trashing these files if they exist, but don't empty the trash yet...
Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
Library/Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.(12 digit number).plist
Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
Reboot.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
Might see these for Software Update not working...

    Cannot connect to iTunes store.Safari cannot find server.I can't update my games and other applications cos iPad cannot connect to iTunes store.Please help

    Be sure you have a good WiFi signal!
    Try reset modem/router (disconnect from power for some minutes)
    Keep the Powerbutton and the Homebutton pressed at the same time until you see the Apple logo on your iPad screen.

  • SOFTWARE UPDATE CANT FIND SERVER???

    hi info is below, every time i try use software update it tells me cannot find server make sure you are connected to the internet and try again. the problem is i am connected to the internet i can use internet on everything apps,itunes,safari,mozilla,skype,aim,msn,etc. the only problem is software update i know i can go to apple.com/downloads to manually download updates but its a pain in the neck, so if anybody can help that would be great, oh yeah someone told me to delete cache and it still doesnt work so it isnt cache its something else im not sure what though

    Open the Terminal in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and run:
    defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL
    Also check that you can browse to http://swquery.apple.com/ and http://swscan.apple.com/ ; getting a 404 page is enough.

  • Problem with wrt54gl Cannot find server or DNS Error

    Hello,
    I am having problem with wrt54gl roouter. I have windows 2K professional that connected trough the wire. The browser (and other tools) is periodically loosing connection for around 30-60 seconds showing "Cannot find server or DNS Error". after refreshes it comes back. If I connect PC directly to internet without router I never have a problem. I have put statical resolution of dns servers(3 of them) and ip does not help. I switch between ports on pc and router site, change the cable, remove antivirus, put latest windows updates, use different browsers. Disable anable 2d network card (2 on mother board).
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Hi… Login to the setup page of the router and reduce the MTU to 1365. Upgrade or re-flash the firmware if needed.

  • "Cannot Find Server" Constant Error Message

    I've been having this problem for quite some time. I will attempt to connect to a website only to wait forever and then get a "Cannot find server" error message. It's not just with one site, it happens with many.
    It's also random. Sometimes everything connects fine and fast, and then inexplicably I get "Cant' find server" for sites like Facebook, Amazon, even Apple. It can start working again for a few minutes and then in an instant I'm getting error messages again.
    However, my email always works fine.
    And this is NOT a Safari problem. I also get the same trouble when I switch to Firefox or Explorer. My ISP says it's an Airport / Mac issue since it all works fine if I direct connect to the laptop and because my email is also working.
    In addition, when I'm having this problem, my iPhone also cannot connect to the WWW but can get email.
    I've tried powercycling the modem and the airport numerous times. It's really becoming a pain.
    Any thoughts?

    Me too I tried everything. I am an Apple fan with 2 computers,3 iPods. I have no idea what the problem is. I had to re-run the disk each time to find the internet. Finally tried a Linksys Grouter worked first time-laptop anywhere in the house strong signal. I have had similar problems with an Airport Express-never got it to work-so tried the Extreme. I returned it-I didn't want to but I just could not get it to work.

    Thank you Garland_M for replying.  
    I have since removed the Printer Server, and found that I can simply put the USB Cable from the Printer to Computer 1, and Computer 2 will see it on the Network..... so I didn't even need that Printer Server in my setup as I had been informed.

    rkaufmann87,
    The printer that I have does not have network capabilities built in.... to have the network capabilities, HP says an additional piece of equipment must be used.... in my case, an HP JetDirect 175x Print Server... I found a used one on eBay that was inexpensive, so I purchased that, and have been trying to configure it to my computer and printer for about 5 hours now.... all I got were error pages.
    I have an older iMac (2008), and I wanted the ability of the use of one printer for the new and old computers.
    After I read your advice, I disconnected the HP JetDirect 175x Print Server entirely, and used just a USB cable from the printer to the computer. 
    The printer worked great from my new computer, but I still wanted the ability of using the printer with the older computer (Wi-Fi). I went into the Print & Scan of System Preferences, and for the heck of it, I clicked the "Printer Sharing" box. 
    I went to the old computer, and for the heck of it, I tried printing something.... LO & BEHOLD it worked. 
    I don't know how it works, because as I said before, the printer is not network-ready.  When I bought the printer several years ago, there were two printers of that model on the shelf.  One was a HP 2015, and the other was a HP 2015n.... (n meaning network).  At the time I didn't think that I would ever need a network printer, which was more expensive, so I purchased the non-network one.
    Now I am truly bewildered as to how I am able to print from both computers without the HP JetDirect 175x Print Server.
    Do you, or anyone else have the answer to that????

  • IE returns "Cannot find server" page during Servlet processing

    I have 2 JSP applications, that require a certain amount of server processing before they complete. For small amounts of information, both of these applications work fine. However, with larger amounts of processing, IE seems to timeout or have a problem maintaining its session and returns with "Cannot find server" - the actual server processing continues meanwhile. This only happens with IE - other browsers maintain persistence. The "timeout" is always consistent - 5 minutes or so with one of the applications, 13 minutes with the other.
    I can find no IE configuration that controls this. Since this doesn't happen with other browsers, is this an IE problem or a design issue with the application that doesn't manifest itself with other browsers ?

    I wouldn't call it an IE problem. I would call it a design issue -- you should not take that long to return a response to the browser. Instead, you should return an immediate response that says something like "Your request has been received for processing", and have some other thread processing requests off-line. That other thread should send a notification (by e-mail?) to the user when the request has been processed, including a link where the data can be accessed.

  • Forms/4GL Tutorial Returns Cannot find server or DNS Error

    Hi:
    I am trying to plow through this tutorial (10.1.3.1.0) and when I run the SRList.jpsx page I receive the error: Cannot find server or DNS Error. The URL produced by JDeveloper is:
    http://192.168.99.36:8988/SRTutorialADFBC-UserInterface-context-root/faces/app/SRList.jspx.
    Any suggestions?
    I've culled the forums and the Web, and cannot find a match. The only nugget that I can add is that I'm using JDeveloper with the OA Framework extension. I have been successful creating pages with OA Framework and executing them. Is there some incompatibility with OA Framework and ADF?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Mchrist,
    You cannot use the OA Framework download to develop ADF apps.
    I would create two batch/command files: in each one, set JDEV_USER_DIR and any other environment variables to point to a proper place and run the JDeveloper.
    Just unzip JDev and OA Framework to separate locations and ensure that the user directory for each is in a separate location as well.

  • Cannot find server error trying to download Migration Workbench

    I've been trying to download OMWB for the last 4 days, from Oracle Migration Workbench Downloads / Release 9.2.0.1.2 for Microsoft Windows 98/NT/2000/XP page.
    Keep getting 'Cannot find server' and 'Page cannot be displayed' errors in Internet Explorer.
    Is this the correct URL:
    http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/omwb/92012/omwb_92012.exe
    I downloaded and used the previous version of OMWB. Was very satisfied with it. Unfortunately, I had to rebuild my hard drive and lost OMWB.

    I suggest that you retry, maybe there was some network glitches... If you follow the links from OTN you should be able to download no problems. Did you try the split downloads as an alternative?

  • Error while synchronizing: Cannot find server

    I have synchornization enabled both on my laptop and PC.
    On laptop everything is fine, but any changes done on PC are not synchronizing with the "Cannot find server \ Wrong server" error.

    Hi Selik,
    Thank you for your question. Apologies for the late reply. I understand that you are receiving a synchronization error. May I confirm with you what service this is associated with?
    If it is Firefox Sync please check the following:
    # Do you have a firewall or antivirus that may be blocking https://accounts.firefox.com or specifically a name like * .services.mozilla.com
    # Please enable logging and post any errors to share [http://pastebin.mozilla.org/]
    How to turn on logging:
    # Open about:config and turn on: services.sync.log.appender.file.logOnSuccess and services.sync.log.logger.engine.bookmarks
    # Restart Firefox and look at: about:sync-log
    # Logs and error messages will be located here
    Thank you, we look forward to your reply!

  • Intermittent "Cannot find server or dns error"

    We are getting "Cannot find server or dns error" intermittently. It happens most frequently using internet explorer on https. Anyone else getting this or have any suggestions?
    (I have logged as TAR 1525537.999)
    null

    After many, many hours or research and corresponding with other
    Oracle resources, we resolved the issue. We still receive the
    "Cannot find server or DNS error" but with much, much less
    frequency.
    Here are the complete details:
    Environment:
    Windows NT 4.0 SP 6
    Oracle 9iAS 1.0.2.2
    Oracle 9iAS Portal 3.0.9.8.0
    Oracle 8i Database 8.1.7.0.0
    Apache HTTP Server: 1.3.19 (win32)
    mod_ssl: 2.8.1
    OpenSSL: 0.9.5a
    SSL port: 443
    Problem:
    We were running into the following error intermittently (but very
    frequently) when accessing pages in the Oracle Portal application
    with SSL enabled:
    "Cannot find server or DNS error" at the bottom of a "Page cannot
    be displayed" error page.
    Resolution:
    7 Applied patchset for Oracle8i 8.1.7.1.1 (to database client and
    server)
    7 Applied patchset for Oracle8i 8.1.7.1.5 (to database client and
    server)
    7 Applied patchset for Oracle Portal 3.0.9.8.1
    7 Implemented solution for Oracle Bug No. 1822053 (HTTP 404 Doing
    Portal Development) by changing (and un-commenting) the following
    line in our Apache http.conf file:
    From: #SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" nokeepalive
    ssl-unclean-shutdown
    To: SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" ssl-unclean-shutdown
    7 Implemented solution for Oracle Bug No. 1821195 (When uploading
    large file using modplsql & SSL error reading data from client)
    by replacing the existing ApacheModuleSSL.dll file with the
    patched file referenced in the bug details.
    Note: Bug No. 1821195 is for Oracle9iAS 1.0.2.2. It references
    Bug No. 1773627 for Oracle9iAS 1.0.2.1.
    I feel the biggest help was finding out about Bug No.
    1821195/1773627. We were provided the bug details by a local
    Oracle technical consultant, Dave McMarlin, referred to us by the
    Oracle Joint Staff Account Manager. That solved our problem with
    receiving the noted error message when we tried to add items to
    the content area. Applying the change to the http.conf file
    identified by Bug No. 1822053 (removing the nokeepalive entry) in
    combination with the Oracle8i and Oracle Portal upgrade seems to
    have solved our problems with the other intermittent occurrences
    of the noted error message.
    According to the details for the ApacheModuleSSL.dll patch, there
    was mention of a bug in the "select" function in Windows NT 4.0:
    "When checking a socket, if data can be read without blocking,
    select () returns yes, but when actually reading from the socket
    with recv(), that function returns WSAEWOULDBLOCK, which says
    that reading would block. It seems that this problem does not
    occur in usual operation, but only in an SSL enabled Apache
    (modssl or apache-ssl) with https. The code for WIN32, which
    handles writing to a socket, already contains a workaround for
    this. The code for reading from a socket did not have a
    workaround."
