Update 7.0 will not install on ATV 3rd Gen.

I've been trying for days to get update 7.0 installed on my Apple TV 3rd Gen. It downloads fine but immediately says "The Update Failed..." I have restarted, reset, and restored the ATV but the update continues to fail. I'm out of ideas and can't seem to find similar issues online so I'm guessing this is an isolated problem. Any ideas?

Well, it took three Restores but the update is installing...finally!

The software update will not install on my 3rd gen. iPod Touch

I've downloaded the software update to my computer, but when trying to install it to my iPod, it fails halfway through. I gave it about 5 hours the first time, but the progress bar didn't budge. I would reinstall the update but I don't know how to do that.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong?
(I am updated to iTunes 10)

i would recommend you don't upgrade because ever since i upgraded my ipod had to be restored and now all my songs skip. i never had this problem with my 3rd gen touch until the upgrade

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

My IPhone 5 installed the new IOS 7 update but it will not install. Why?

My IPhone 5 installed the new IOS 7 update but it will not install. Why?

I imagine a ton of people are attempting to download, install, and reactive their devices it right now. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

Macbook Pro SMC update 1.3 will not install

Greetings,
I am having problems getting the latest SMC update to install on my 15" Macbook pro. My built in drive has a boot camp partition, so I understand if the update won't install using that. But When booting off freshly GUID partitioned and HFS+(journaled) formatted Firewire 400 drive (Leopard installed and updated to 10.5.7) SMC 1.3 update will not install and gives same error "Your firmware can not be updated because the hard drive partition scheme may not be supported. You must be booted from a GUID partition or RAID scheme." Huh?
I tried the update pushed down by software update, and a manual download.
Current SMC version showing in system profiler as 1.16f10
Anyone else experience this or have any suggestions?

"...hit the hardware start button, get gong, machine starts to boot, something briefly flashes on the screen"
Hi Bob, you have to hold down the start button(5-10secs) until you hear a long tone. Then let go and everything is ok.
You'll also see the progress bar install the update, that is what the brief flash was but because the button wasn't held for a few seconds, it didn't take.

Update for keynote will not install...how to remove update or ignore?

How can I ignore an update for Keynote that will not install? I also have an update for my printer that I have installed 4 times but it still shows as needing to be installed?

Try hiding the Keynote app in the Trash where the Mac App Store can't see it. Then try to redownload it from your Purchases list. You should get the most recent version available.

BBC iplayer says Adobe Air needs updating: Adobe Air will not install, but says I have a later version already on my PC!

Use Firefox. Have BBC iPlayer which will not load, saying I need a newer version of Adobe Air: when trying to instal Adobe Air, get message saying I already have a more recent version. It worked when I was using IE, but not since changing to Firefox.

Hi there,
stumbled on this conversation after having problems myself.
After lots of trial and error, I was finally able to install iPlayer on my MacBook Pro.
Firstly remove Adobe Air (Applications, Utilities, Adobe Air Uninstaller).
Reboot (not sure if it is needed but it is what I did).
Download Adobe Air 2.5 from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/853/cpsid_85304.html
Then retry installing iPlayer from the BBC webpage. I ignored the prompt from Adobe Air to upgrade to the latest version (3.1).

Update to iTunes will NOT install and all subsequent attempts to reinstall fail.

I was informed of an update to iTunes tonight so I tried to install it. It would not install. "The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." A second error message pop up stating "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes - Error 7 (WIndows error 126)"
I've tried reinstalling iTunes 3 times. After each time I've cleared cache and temporary internet files and re-booted. I've used Firefox, IE 10 and Google Chrome. Nothing works.
I need this fixed. It was working great until Apple decided to put out an update that screwed everything up.

Go it done. The key appears to have been UTTERLY removing EVERYTHING - even going so far as to delete every iTune folder under Users/Local, LocalLow, and Roaming, and Programs Files, and clearing out all Temp files.
Thanks!

Security Update 2007 006 will not install!

I downloaded the newly released Security update (Intel) and tried to install it on my 24" Intel iMac. I was immediately informed that my volume "does not meet the requirements for this update" and it refused to go farther.
Has anyone an idea what is going on here?
Griff

Here is what worked for me.
Run Safari 3.0 installer and choose uninstall. Then, after a restart, either use the Apple software program in Tiger or download the updater for your machine. Either should install.
Evidently, the Safari installer had already put the fix on my computer, but since I have a lot of time to kill, this gave me the peace of mind that the whole fix is installed.
Then you can reinstal Safari Beta, if you really want it.
Personally I am going to wait until Fall and get 10.5.

Update Downloads but will not Install (and a few other issues)

My dInc2 keeps telling me I have an update. I download the firmware and then it tells me that if I install I won't be able to use the phone. This is fine - it's what always happens. Except it NEVER installs. Ever. I've tried a million times. And more recently, my clock disappeared. I was so glad I wasn't having that issue - but then it happened. Has anyone else experienced the issue of updates not installing? How do I fix it?

AngM627, I can imagine how frustrating it must be for you to keep receiving the notification advising you to update your phone software. Do you mind telling me which software version is on your Incredible 2?

Macbook efi firmware update 1.1 will not install

When I check for software updates, there is an update that is labeled "Macbook EFI firmware update 1.1", I click on the button to install it, a message is displayed that the update was installed successfuly, I click on the "OK" button, it checks for updates again a message is displayed that "Your software is up to date". When I click on the "Quit" button a Windows opens displaying a message about the firmware update and I have to click on the "Shut down" button. The system shuts down, when I turn it back on and check for software updates again the "Macbook EFI firmware update 1.1" is listed again, I have been through this 3 times, it says it installs but when I check again it still shows up as an update that needs to be installed and the firmware version has not changed as is should if the update did in fact install, what am I missing???

ICloud Backup crashes and will not complete on iPad 3rd Gen

iCloud Backup has not been able to complete a backup on my 3rd Gen iPad since I upgraded to iOS 7.1. The backup starts, but about half-way through the iPad spontaneously reboots. This happens both when I manually start the backup from the Settings app and also when it attempts an automatic backup while the screen is off. I am also syncing with iTunes on my Mac, so I have occasional backups that way, but I would like to get iCloud backup to work again.
Is anybody else experiencing this?
In general, I find iOS 7.1 slow and still very buggy on a 3rd Gen iPad. I don't think the hardware can really keep up with it.
Thanks,
Drew

FYI iOS 7.1 runs fine on my iPad 3. I haven't encountered any bugs.
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.
If this doesn't solve your problem and, accounting for your mention of other bugs, consider doing a complete restore to Factory using iTunes on your computer.

Update 9.1 will not install, re-attempts for many weeks

Hi:
on one of our Win XP systems we have an issue with Adobe Acrobat Reader v9.1, this automated update popping up and asking to install the software. Every each time the update starts and shows a message that someone is using Acrobat, asking to stop that process. But I cannot identify any such process. I used process explorer, killed off everything I can think of, to no avail. As soon I click on "Retry," installer returns to the menu and asks to stop Acrobat user.
I tried reboot, restart, log off everybody else, kill processes, remove quick acrobat starter etc, etc. What upsets me is the obnoxious recurring nature of the problem and the fact that the most elementary functionality of telling actually what process is the user is not implemented in the installer.
Could someone please give me a hint how to find this mystery "acrobat user" process?
Thomas

Thanks for the replies, but the last assumption is not correct. Every of these versions of Acro Reader came same way from the web.
Apparently the suggestion is not to look for the "mystery process" but rather tio assume that Microsoft installer got its settings scrambled. I will give it a go lacking any other hint.

Keyboard firmware update 1.0 will not install

Hi - I think others have had similar problems, but I don't know if a solution exists?
When software opens on our macbook here at work, we get a message that there is an update available for the keyboard. It should ensure that the first keystroke is recognized after the macbook's been asleep and solve a few other problems. Well, the first keystroke isn't generally recognized, so I decided to try again to install it. Here is what happens:
It downloads perfectly, as far as I can tell.
The machine restarts.
The software tries to install itself. It quits less than halfway through, giving me an error message and then, "your keyboard firmware could not be updated". This has happened twice over the past three months or so. What is this update, how important is it, and how on earth do I get it to install?
TIA!

First, does your MacBook meet the following requirements:
System Requirements
Installation of MacBook and MacBook Pro Keyboard Firmware Update 1.0 requires Mac OS X 10.5.2.
Note the above because it does not appear that you have a version of Leopard installed.
The MacBook and MacBook Pro Keyboard Firmware Update 1.0 supports the following products:
MacBook (Late 2006)
MacBook (Mid 2007)
MacBook (Late 2007)
MacBook Pro (17-inch Core 2 Duo)
MacBook Pro (15-inch Core 2 Duo)
MacBook Pro (Mid 2007, 2.4/2.2GHz)
MacBook Pro (Late 2007, 2.4/2.2GHz)
When will the keyboard firmware be updated?
This update installs an application in the Utilities folder called "Built-in Keyboard Firmware Update." The updater application will automatically open. Once open, please follow the instructions within the application to complete the update. It can also be manually run later by double-clicking the updater in the Utilities folder.
Second, I would download and install the standalone version rather than using Software Update.
