TS1394 Macbook pro not installing updates

Late 2010 model. Not installing any downloaded applications/updates.
Could anyone know what could be causing this?

You posted in the "Snow Leopard Forum", so I assume that is your correct version of OS X?  If so, OS X 10.6.8 is the last version that Apple put out, so there are no further "Updates" for it.  If you mean you want an "Upgrade" to 10. 7 "Lion", or 10.8 "Mountain Lion", you have to purchase those from the Mac App Store.  They are not Free.

  • MacBook Pro not installing OS X 10.6.4

    I got Ilife 11 and tried to install it. It said i had to update my software so i got out the Snow Leopard installer and tried to install it but i just said it cant install on my Computer. I have a MacBook Pro with MAC OS X 10.5.8 software. Can you help me or tell me what's wrong?

    You need to use a retail package and not one from a different Mac model.

  • Macbook Pro not installing Mavericks

    My 2012 13" Macbook Pro was acting so slow lately that I could not use it. I tried to reset it to factory settings by following instructions found online. Now the computer fails to reinstall Mavericks. Any suggestions?

    It starts on a screen where I have to enter my apple id and password and the first time I tried to download it, I left it download for 17 hours and it stayed on "Less than a minute" left for the complete download for 15 of those hours. The second time It refused to even start the download and said "An error occured during download".

  • HT1338 my macbook will not install updates

    My computer will check for updates then it makes a list of available updates and even looks like its going to install them but after a few minutes pass it just say that it was unable to update
    I have a hp that i use alot so I probably missed some previous updates i dont know but would love to be able to update my safari and itunes for sure
    thank you

    Joey, greetings;  You certainly are correct:  With that said, I did download from two sources on the Internet and got this response:
    Clearly both times I should have checked if it was OS or Windows.  Not having I need for this application, it was a failure to pursue a thorough investigation.
    Perhaps though this is one of the problems that melaniefromkaufman is having.  I still hope that melaniefrokaufman will provide us with additional information.
    Thanks for keeping me honest.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook pro not installing Numark NS6 drivers.

    Okay so i bought a Numark ns6 to dj with and i was using it just fine on my osx 10.8 but now its not allowing any audio out on the ns6. i went to their forums and it said that the new drivers do work with Mavericks 10.9. however i have a friend who is using my device on his laptop and has updated to Mavericks 10.9 as well and his works just fine. so i found the versions of software he is using and i downloaded them however the drivers will not open and install on my mac. any suggestions to get this to open and install the drivers so i can get back to playing gigs at night?

  • I have a Macbook Pro. I updated to 10.9.4 an downloaded the trial for Creative Cloud. It downloaded and installed but will not open. I shut down and tried reinstalling. Same problem.

    Thanks.

    I stumbled upon the solution. In addition to downloading Creative Cloud, I needed to go back to the website and  download trials for the programs I want to use--Photoshop and Lightroom. Once I did that, I was in business. Would save trouble if that was made clear on the download site.
    Thanks

    You can force quit by holding the power button down for extended period.
    During boot up hold down the Option key and choose your Macintosh HD OSX.
    In >System Preferences> Startup Disk>choose your internal OSX System as Default.

  • MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 2.0 will not install.

    Hi
    The latest MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 2.0 will not install.
    It runs and I restart my Mac but when I search for more updates it appears as a required update again.
    Anyone know why this may be?

    I had the same problem today. I called Apple support who transferred me to second level support and no resolution. I decided to try a combination of the items I have seen below.
    I restarted my computer. I went to apple support download and downloaded the software EFI firmware update 2.0 by typing in search window. I made sure the power cord was pulled into the wall and the laptop had a FULL charge. I installed the update and the computer restarted.
    I went to check the software update window after the update and restart completed and SUCCESSFUL.
    I do not know why the Genius Bar or the second level support could not resolve my issues but, by me reading information here I hope at least this issue is resolved.
    Thanks ALL.......... Happy Mac ing

  • 'MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update (v2.3)' not installing

      'MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update (v2.3)' not installing
            I've tried multiple times now to install this update. When I do, it downloads and my computer will restart around 5 times with the 'beep' the first time. Once its finished the restarts and resumes normally, I check the Software Update via the Apple menu and it still appears in the list of updates.
    What's the cause of this and what can I do to resolve this?

    Is your machine plugged in when you do this?  The firmware update will not take place unless your system is plugged in.  You'll just get a black screen that flashes a few times and it will eventually boot regularly back to what it was.  If the firmware is installing, you'll see a progress bar at the bottom of your display.

  • MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 2.7: installed or not?

    I have MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 2.7 showing as installed on Mar 17, 2015 on my AppStore Updates page; it also shows up as installed on Mar 18, 2015 and yet Mavericks wants to install it again.
    I seriously doubt this update has been updated so many times, something just doesn't seem right.
    Questions: what should I do? Is there a way to get rid off this annoying (1) showing on the AppStore updates?
    Thanks!
    Fernando

    I have also been getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred" "The digital signature on Mac Book Pro EFI Firmware Update is missing or invalid. The update may have been tampered with since being signed by Apple. Click Update to download and check the update again.(203)" [OK]
    This seems to indicate some sort of problem with/in the Apple Store, don't you think? Who do we call, Ghostbusters? :-) Hello, Apple, you there?
    Thanks for replying!

  • MacBook Pro Retina SMC Update 1.1 Won't Install

    Hi Everybody. I am having a really annoying problem with my rMBP. I have the update labaled: "MacBook Pro Retina SMC Update 1.1" Available in my Mac AppStore app. After I click update, I get a prompt letting me know that the laptop needs to be plugged in, I hit ok. It downloads (very small file) and asks me to Restart or hit "Not Now". I click restart, the system reboots into a updating page where a status bar quickly completes. The laptop restarts again back to OSX. I open up the appstore and goto the updates page and what do I see? 1 available update: MacBook Pro Retina SMC Update 1.1, like I never did anything to begin with.
    My system info is:
    Model Name:          MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacBookPro10,1
      Processor Name:          Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:          2.6 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1
      Total Number of Cores:          4
      L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
      L3 Cache:          6 MB
      Memory:          8 GB
      Boot ROM Version:          MBP101.00EE.B02
      SMC Version (system):          2.3f32
      Serial Number (system):          xxx
      Hardware UUID: xxx
    Please help this is really annoying.

    I had the same problem. Tried all the proposed fixes. Nothing worked. This solved my problem:
    1. Install a fresh copy of mountain lion on an extern disk
    2. Startup from that disk
    3. Update to 10.8.3.
    4. Restart
    5. Open app store, go to updates. You should see the SMC 1.1. update.
    6. Click update
    7. Restart
    Once the update installed (fan will go quickly to max speed during startup) switch back to your internal disk and start up. Now the SMC 1.1. update shouldn't show up in the app store/upadtes.

  • MacBook Pro not booting up after Software Update ('prohibited' symbol)

    Hi there
    I'm having some issues with my (late 2008) MacBook Pro after installing a recent software update: the machine is not booting up, instead displaying the 'prohibited' symbol on the grey bootup screen, thus:
    !http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/7215/photovl.jpg!
    The back story: this morning I ran Software Update and installed the iWork update, the latest security update and the Snow Leopard Graphics Update. This installation apparently went fine, however on the required reboot the computer displayed the above image, and did nothing.
    I booted from the Snow Leopard install DVD, fixed disk permissions and repaired the disc, which Disk Utility claimed was successful; the computer still would not boot.
    I then rebooted from the Snow Leopard DVD and restored from my most recent Time Machine backup (dated a few days ago, before the software update). This, still, did not do the trick.
    As I have never seen this particular issue before, I'm at a loss as to what to try next, partly as I don't really know what the symbol is signifying. Any assistance that can be offered would be very, very useful.
    Cheers in advance!

    Thanks for that, I did go looking for it but couldn't find it.
    Unfortunately, resetting the PRAM and NVRAM didn't work. Will a reinstallation of OS X make a difference, bearing in mind I've already restored from a Time Machine backup? (I don't know if those clone everything or don't include system files).

  • I made a dual boot of windows 7 and mac os x lion in my macbook pro .i installed m icrosoft support software also. now, can i install windows updates? do i turn on the automatic updating of updates? does hot fix of microsoft helps in stop freezing?

    i made a dual boot of windows 7 and mac os x lion in my macbook pro .i installed m icrosoft support software also. now, can i install windows updates? do i turn on the automatic updating of updates? does hot fix of microsoft i.e, " support.microsoft.com/kb/979491" helps in stop freezing in dual boot mechanism?

    Windows has a software updater built into Windows and when you install the Boot Camp drivers then it will install an Apple software updater also. I believe Windows is set to automatically download and install your updates as does the Apple software Updater. They both will update the individual files it needs to periodically.
    "Microsoft updates" and "Windows updates" are basically the same thing in Windows. Are you talking about the "Windows support software" when downloading from Boot Camp Assistant? Apple installs a software updater for it's Boot Camp drivers in Windows 7 so you can do it manually or automatically.
    The "Hot Fix" your referring to is only for certain motherboards built from other Windows only computer manufacturers and does NOT pertain to any Apple computers.
    If you have a problem with your computer then it's best to ask a specific question so we can help better.

  • My mac book pro does not install updates that require a restart of the computer

    I have a macbook pro and any update that does not require a restart works perfectly, but if an update requires a restart (as most do) the computer will restart and the progress bar on the update will get stuck on "writing files" without moving on from this phase. I have even let the update try to install for up to ten hours and it still stays in the same phase. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Boot up from your install DVD and run "Repair Disk" from the Utility menu.
    Repair permissions and restart your computer after each installation.
    If there are multiple updates listed in SU, what I do is install 2 at a time, repair permissions, restart computer & install the next batch of 2.  The max is 3 that I will install all at one time.
