Update has stopped installing the new OS

Iv'e had my playbook connected to the computer for over 3 hours now trying to install the latest OS and it has been stuck on the same part of the installation.
Installing sys.hotspotBrowser
That is apparently what it is doing, but it hasn't done a thing after filling the bar about a third of the way. Any suggestions? If I unplug the playbook it might wipe it.

Main Menu is a nice shortcut system through the menubar.  Unfortunately many third party menubar applications break even with free updates.    You already have the Launcher & Stacks in the Dock to manage folders of your applications etc...  At least Main Menu was quick to update this time for Lion.  Before upgrading, consider my FAQ*:

  • Has anyone installed the new firmware?

    Has anyone installed the new firmware yet? And have you noticed any issues with it? I'm weary of installing Apple's firmware updates after how terrible the last one was (I'm sure everyone remembers the hdd hangs). Also, Apple's trackpad update was terrible as well for the first few weeks it was out.

    Because I was one of the users affected last time.

    Not just a tiny amount of people. Lots of people had this issue. Firmware downgrade is what solved it, until Apple released an upgrade of the upgrade. I just wanted to check if anyone was having issues with this firmware before I upgraded.
    And I'm not sure why people are getting so offended. It's a simple question of "did upgrading to the new firmware screw up your computer", and requires a yes or a no answer. The last two times I installed an update it messed with my computer, so it makes sense for me to be weary. You would be as well if you were in the same situation. And I have not yet heard anything about this firmware, but I haven't had time to check out what people have said. I'm in med school and I'm usually fairly busy.

  • Has anyone installed the new galaxy s3 update?

    Just curious if anyone has installed the software update for the Samsung Galaxy S3 and if they ran into any issues?

    Installed fine. However, I was disappointed to see it was not KitKat 4.4. Otherwise, no problems here.
    Cheers!

  • Has anyone installed the new update to Itunes 7.3.1 sucessfully?

    I know people complain more often than they say thanks but having experienced the problems upgrading to 7.3.0 and resolving them with the help of this discussion forum I am hesitant to do another update for fear that I will lose more than I gain.
    So have people installed the latest update and been successful? Or were there problems for everyone?
    HP 720n   Windows XP  

    Troublefree upgrade from 7.3.0.x on an XP SP2 box, and two troublefree initial installs on a 32-bit Vista Ultimate box so far. (A separate set of issue on the Vista box required a restore from the the factory's recovery partition, hence the two different initial installs on the same Vista box.)

  • I can't update or Re install the new Firefox on my win 8.1 system. The setup up that downloaded is not working, why?

    The setup up that downloaded is not working.

    If the file has "stub" in the name, it needs to connect back to the server for additional files. Some firewalls block that. Try installing the full installer from the following page (scroll down for your preferred language):
    https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/
    Any luck?

  • When closing Firefox, I used to have the choice to 'save and quit' so I'd open with the same tabs next time. This has stopped with the new version. How can I save my tabs now?

    the only message that comes up now when I close is 'you are about to close x number of tabs' with no offer to save anything.

    Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.
    You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.
    Another possibility is to use:

  • Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later. 0x80070032

    Hello, I'm trying to update my Windows 10 to the new build and it's not possible in my computer.
    In PC Settings\Preview Build I get this error as a result after trying to install the new update:
    Failed to install the new preview build, please try again later. 0x80070032
    EDIT: After trying the solution posted here: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/66f82aff-9411-4c5f-a34f-e3172df32925/preview-build-failed-to-download-0x80246018?forum=WinPreview2014Setup
    Now I have different error 0x80240024

    Hi,
    Did you find the error during downloading or installing process? Have you cleared the SoftwareDistribution folder and check the issue again?
    It would be better if you can check the event viewer and windowsupdate.log (%windir%\Windowsupdate.log), find related information, upload the log to OneDrive for further analysis.

  • Has anyone else had trouble installing the new Apple TV update?

    I have tried several time to install the new software for my Apple TV, but each time I am getting a message saying the intall was unsuccessful.  I have 2 and it installed on the older Apple TV (non-HD version) but the newer set will not install the update.

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.
    If when you choose restore you get a message that the device cannot be found, download the file below
    Apple TV Software Restore 5.1.1 (2nd generation)
    Then hold down the option key while choosing restore and select the downloaded file when prompted.
    If you have the Apple TV 3, use the following file.
    Apple TV Software Restore 5.1.1 (3rd generation)

  • HT4623 how long will take to install the new update on my iphone, it has been at the same % for a hour.

    How long does it take to install the new iphone update, my iphone is been stuck at the same % for over a hour.

    The update should not take more than 5 minutes to download and update.
    I would recommended pressing on the sleep/wake button for a few seconds untill you see the 'slide to shut down' bar. Shut the device down and try again.

  • Why will airplay not work from my desktop to apple tv after I installed the new update?

  • I cannot uninstall itunes version 10.7.0.21 from my laptop use of that I also cannot install the new update.

    I cannot uninstall iTunes version 10.7.0.21 from my laptop (windows 7), therefore I cannot install the new iTunes version....!
    Every time I try to do it, a "message" from the windows installer pops up saying "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable", I try to find the installation package "iTunes.msi" but I can never find it either...!
    The funny part is, I can still use this version, but I would like the have the update, which can make my computer much faster than now!
    Can someone help me out??

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • I just installed the new itunes software update and it completely whiped my computer and have lost all my files? can some one expalin to me what happened and how do i undo it?

    Can someone please help me! I installed the new itunes software onto my computer it shut down then when i tried to log back into my computer all of my documents and everything was gone! the only thing remaining was my recycle bin. but my documents etc are gone!
    I tried to uninstall the software but it still hasnt made a difference! Has anyone had the same issue and if so how do I fix it? I need all my documents back!!

    Installing an iTunes update does not remove your media or personal files.
    Are the files actually missing off the computer, if so, you have a serious computer issue... not a software update issue.
    Regardless, use the backup of your media and other important files to put everything back.  You do have a backup, correct?

  • Has anyone's screen go blank and not boot up after installing the new yosemite OS

    has anyone's screen go blank and not boot up after installing the new yosemite OS

    Hi Mofimac,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your Mac is only starting up to a blank gray or white screen after updating OS X, you can find some useful troubleshooting steps in this article:
    Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
    I recommend going through these first three sections first:
    Disconnect, test peripheral devices and network cables
    Perform a Safe Boot
    Reset the NVRAM / PRAM
    Best Regards,

  • Why has the sound gone all of a sudden after installing the new iOS 5.0.1?

    I have had the iPhone 4s since the time it was released in the uk, u had no problems with it, it's network coverage was pretty good, the loudness of the speakers was good ad the battery would last me an entire day, now after installing the new ios 5.0.1, my sous has gone, I can't hear the music playing, I can't here te clicks and the tap sounds when touching the phone, the only time it makes sound is when I make a call and I can put it on loud speaker, other than that there's no sound coming from te loud speaker, oh yeah Siri seems to be working fine. Do aby of you people know what's wrong and if any of you lot are going through the same problem or any other problems since tbe update to ios5.0.1, apple you need to get this sorted as the speaker is important to some of us if not all and it would be great if you could sort this out and any other problems caused by this update and to allow the phone to work and operate the way it should, thanks!

    Hi Guys,  I FIXED IT!!!!
    I have post eariler on this forum and as you know I have the same problem, I have tried all the things listed here and nothing was perminant in fixing this painful iphone hating problem.... and failed.  But I need to happily say that I now have the fix!!!!  This worked for me and I fixed it by myself so you don't need to go to apple or service centre or anything.
    Ok I like so many of you here truly believed this was as IO5 issue as it only dropped the sound on the speakers once that IO5 update came along.  I tried a bunch of reset, reboots, home clicks, lock and unlocks, to fix this and all failed.  some worked for an hour but then failed.  hours of my life that I will never get back.   but since I have learnt this is not a IO5 problem but a hardware issue! ...  and in paticualar is has to do with your bottom connection.  Your phone is thinking it is docked all the time.
    To fix the no sound problem what you need is...
    1.  a torch
    2.  a tooth brush
    3.  methalated spirits
    4. a butter knife
    Step 1.
    get your torch and shine it down the bottom connection plate to see what kind of dust, sand, hair or anything you have stuck in there.   all that need to be removed!  everything!  it might look clean but still thats ok go to step 2.
    step 2.
    Turn on your music app and put the speakers on!  If your phone is like mine it should not work.  you most probably don't even have the volume display to turn it on but its ok, just do it! and it should still play with no sound.   its important you try and run the speakers as this will show you that it is a hardware problem.
    step 3.
    Dip your tooth brush into some methated sprits.   then at your sink tap the exess metho out of your brush as you just want the brushes to be slightly damp, not soaking wet and then scrub the bottom connetiors on your iphone.  work the brush back and forward in a way that scoops the dirt out of the phone, not just pushing it side to side.
    (As you bushing you should notice the volume bar come back on or off as you scub.   This happened to me and that is how I realised I was on the right track to fixing this problem as I was doing something external that was actually controling when the volume display came on or off.   but once I cleaned it this still didn't fix the problem...)
    Step 4.
    Use the back side of a butter knife (not the sharp side) to gently slide over the connectors on the iphone.  Do this gently as you are only pushing down on the tiny metal contect bars and you should notice the volume display come on again.  slide it back and forward.  Now the area of interest is about 2/3 along the connection plate to the right.   This is the area that has the infomation sent when your iphone thinks its docked.
    This has worked for me and I have not had a problem since I did this 2 weeks ago.   I have since learnt that the new IOS 5 has activated a different part of the bottom conectors.  if you have been using dodgy connectors or unapproved apple cables (as I was)  any damage or hair and dirt on the terminal this is effecting it.  Try it.   just remember if you can do something external to your phone then there lies the problem.
    Hope this works for your phone as it did for mine. 
    Cheers
