Unable to Update System via Airport

Tried to update wife's system 2.4GHz 15" MBP using Airport connection. Airport connection working fine - able to connect and get the list of updates needed. When I hit install the files would download and every single one of them then informed that the file could not install because it had been tampered with or was corrupt. Since two of them were 145MB and 77MB respectively I did not want to go through the lengthy process again. So I retried some of the smaller ones with the same result.
Moved her computer to my office and connected via LAN cable and everything worked like a champ.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking that the long password and encryption(WPA) might be introducing errors although this seems odd.
Thanks,
rhys

I only use Software Update, (which is very touchy as for timing on downloads), to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

Unable to update system apps after credit card change

Hi all,
A store called (no name) an authorized Apple dealer for Thailand installed a new hard drive 1Tb on my Mac book pro (2009).
Now I am not able to update system app originally installed on my mac like iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand.
I get the message:
My question:
How can I get these system apps back to my mac?
To explain the problem:
my original hard drive started to get really slow and after a mavericks update.
All of a sudden Appstore has stopped working and wouldn't start up.
I was unable to do updates and also Pages , Numbers and terminal stopped working.
After googling what the problem could be I have learned that there might be a application causing the problem a third party app I later found out.
I went to the store and I asked if a upgrade with a new hard drive (1Tb) and memory (8gb) could solve the problem, the said yes and i agreed to do this installation!
Unfortunately the store just installed the hard drive but was unable to provide me with the memory as agreed so now i have only the 1tb hard drive.
The system incl. Pages , Numbers and terminal now is working again, not really faster but improved a bit and this also included the startup time, except the items mentioned above. ( iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand)
By the way:
I did change my CC as I am in Asia and my old card was running out of date!
I had a different Apple Id because i had purchased the Mac in Thailand and changed the store and Id to Spain (for CC reasons) but was never a problem if i had updates in the past!
Thanks for any advice.

I don't know if it will solve your original problem, but the Vodafone software needs to be reinstalled or removed.
Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking theCustomize button, if there is one.
Back up all data before making any changes.
You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

Linksys srw2048 unable to update firmware via xmodem (using hyperterm)

I have three srw2048 series switches at my new job. One updated fine via the web interface the other two (after I found a windows machine to use the web interface) looked as though they were uploading the new file but after a reboot I was still on the old verison. So I broke out the console cable. What I have done is to Download Software to the switch (option 1) this kicks me over into xmodem. Once I am in xmodem I choose to send a file (the latest rom) using the 1K Xmodem protocol it immediately gives me retries and errors until it reaches a threshold that ends the session. During this whole process zero k is transferred.
Boot Version 1.0.0.04
Software Version 1.0.0.49
Hardware Version 00.03.10
The only thing I can think is that I must need older files to upgrade to an intermediary version before loading the latest 1.22 rom file.

You might want to pose this question in the Linksys forums at http://homecommunity.cisco.com/
Also, try another terminal program like Teraterm Pro. Maybe it needs "classic" xmodem?

HT201210 Unable to update apps via iTunes

I recently updated my iPad2 to iOS7. Huge mistake, but what's done is done. Anyway, since the update I am now unable to update any of my apps. Before the update I had no problems, but now it just kicks out the request and goes into a never ending loop of asking for my password without actually updating anything. Am I the only one with this problem?
In addition to this, I am now unable to use my messages function or FaceTime. Goes into the same never ending loop.

If anything like my Asha 311 how about going to Settings > scroll down off screen to connectivity > net connection - set to Wi-Fi first?

I browsed several boards and a huge set of websites but did find anything related.

At the first time yes, because i'm using an extra raid controller. That's because the environment 'boot-device' has to be set to a value different than 'disk'.
At the end of the jumpstart installation i have to type 'init 6' for reboot manually and the environment 'boot-device' has its default value. Thats why the server isn't boot and fall back to net boot.

Unable to access internet via Airport Express

Hi. I'm have trouble connecting to the internet using my Airport Express.
When I plug in my DSL modem to the unit, I get the solid green light. My Macbook is able to connect to the airport, and to other computers on the same Airport.
However, none of my computers are able to reach any internet sites. They were even unable to directly ping a remote IP address. However, if I plug my DSL modem directly into my Macbook, bypassing the Airport, it correctly connects to the internet, which leads me to believe the problem is with my Airport.
A couple of oddities which I don't know if they are normal. First, in my MacBook's network prefs, the DNS box is blank. However, I'm connected via DHCP, so I didn't know if that'd matter. In the airport configuration app, under internet, it's also using DHCP, but the box is empty, with the same address as the router (192.168.1.1) greyed out next to it. The IP address is 192.168.1.5. This number is rather different than when I connect to my DSL router directly on my MacBook.
I'm running what I believe to be the newest firmware (6.3).
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,
Nathaniel

Hi,
I solved the problem using the airport express firmware 6.1.1. and erasing all favourites networks in network pref panel to create new ones. You may also check the keychains utility (applications -> utilities). If there is several times the same pass, just keep the latest and erase the others.
Hope my english is understandable...

Unable to update VAP2 via LSMW

There is an LSMW for VAP2 transaction which uses records from the flat file to update the data.
I am trying to update the Salutation/Title of the contact person via VAP2 transaction using records from the flat file. In VAP2 transaction salutation/title appears as drop down menu, these recrods appear correctly in the Read Data and Display Converted Data step of LSMW but when I try to to update the same data in the last step of LSMW(Run Batch Input Session) it does not update the data also the data that appears in these screens of VAP2 is not correct one i.e. it is not from the flat file that I am using.
I am running the LSMW in foreground and I am providing the partner number at each step of the LSMW.
Please suggest me what could have gone wrong.

Because you did a hard-reset already, I recommend the Nokia Software Recovery Tool because that tool makes sure you get all software/firmware components again, even the demo-stuff from mass storage. By the way, if you do not get Nokia Belle Refresh (111.040…), please give us your Product Code (dial *#0000#) so we can look into that, and why. Otherwise, the Nokia Store on the phone does not work anymore …

Unable to configure express via airport admin utility

After much faffing around I finally got my airport express to connect to my existing network and even got the little speaker button to show up in itunes (hooorah) but then it asked me if I wanted to update the firmware so I said yes and then it all went 't*ts up' and I never got airport utility to read the configuration again even after resetting ?
Anybody got any helpful advice ?
Thanks
AnniB

I think that the resetting alone solved your issue, because I am having the same problem without ever upgrading to the new firmware. My Airport Express is working fine, but I wanted to check the settings, so I opened the Utility program. It asked me if I wanted to updated the firmware, and I hit cancel.
The Utility see my AX and can get the basic info, but I get the same -6753 error when trying to read the configuration of the AX.
I will try the resetting procedure, but I don't think the firmware is the issue here, since I have the old firmware with the same problem.

Setting up a security system via Airport Extreme...

So I'm setting up an in-home security system called ingrid and everything is cool but the ingrid system does not detect the internet. I have everything set up as per the instructions for airport and ingrid... I'm a assuming it must be some kind of setting that just isn't allowing the phone that the system works off of to access the internet... I put in the phone's MAC address and gave it everyday all day timed access.. Still nothing... please help.

Most Guest Network problems are a result of not using the correct type of modem with the AirPort Extreme.
Apple is expecting you to use a simple modem.....not a modem/router or gateway type of device.....with the AirPort Extreme.
So, let's first confirm on what type of device that you have to make sure that it will be compatible with the Guest Network feature.
If you are not sure of your modem type, post back with the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem"......so we can check compatibility with that device.

I am told I need to update my Adobe Flash. I am unable to update it via the directed web site.

I have go to (http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/) update my adobe flash. When I click on the link that says download now, nothing happens.
How can I correct this?
Thank you,
Mark

I always use the method(s) and links below to update. On the main Adobe Flashplayer page (the one you cited),
*Adobe will now download another browser if you do not un-check the box on the first page
*Adobe also downloaded, in the past, the troublesome getplus extension (an updater for Flash) on the page you cited
*May install Adobe Air along with Flash, which is not widely used at this point, except on mobile devices.
There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash; an '''ActiveX version''' for IE only and a '''Plugin version''' for most other browsers including Firefox. On a Windows system, you should always update both individually.
#'''Using Firefox''', go to the following direct download link and SAVE the download to your desktop so you can find it later: http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
#When the download is finished, close Firefox (File > Exit '''''OR''''' Firefox button > Exit)
#Click or double-click on the file you just saved to your desktop
#*In the installation window that appears, click the box to the left of "I have read and...." to place a check mark in the box
#*The "Install" button in the lower right corner will now be highlighted, click it.
#*The installation is quick.
#Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
#Direct link ActiveX version for IE '''''only''''': http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
'''If this reply solves your problem, please click "Solved It" next to this reply when <u>signed-in</u> to the forum.'''

My User is unable to update NoteboxPro via the Windows Store - ERROR c101a7d1

One of my users is getting an ERROR on his device when he tries to update to the latest version of my application NoteboxPro. The error code is
c101a7d1
I have the same device and network operator that I use for testing my apps before I submit them and have not had any issues. What does this error means and how does my user update to the latest NoteboxPro?
He has tried to do a total un-install of the app and re-install but still gets the error code
c101a7d1.
Please help.

Hi Jason,
Actually its a Windows Phone app. Its probably my 2nd or 3rd update since I moved the code from WP7.8 over to WP8/8.1 - which also had issues that never got resolved properly by MS Support.
This latest update had minimal code tweaks, no big features or sweeping changes at all. I will definitely help vote up your post.
Another (separate) annoyance that I noticed was the switch from SkyDrive to OneDrive. That caused a lot of users to not be able to get access to their accounts from my app, which meant they could not restore files. This issue also exists when users
change devices (i.e. upgrade or get a new device). My users have to revert to creating a new OneDrive account and manually copying over the backup/restore files.... it just makes us look back as developers even though we have followed the API as suggested.
Cheers
