Update or not?

I know it's up to each individual if they want to upgrade or not. I have been waiting for 3.0 to come out since they accounced it. After reading all the messages about bugs, etc and what "spfparker" said, SUGGEST THAT NO ONE UPDATES TO OS 3.0!!! is this what some people think? AAPL said this "if you go into an all-new release thinking it's going to be 100% smooth, you're wrong" do you guys agree? What do you guys think I should go?
Will all your APPS you have now work? (if you have itunes 8.2)?

like the others say, update.
it's been said before, i'll say it again 'you don't go to a hospital looking for healthy people'. this is the place people are going to come to complain about any of their problems.
i updated last night with no problems. and i haven't noticed any particular bugs yet (granted it sometimes takes a few days for these things to become noticable).
while there are already a good number of threads on here with bugs (it's true, updates never seem to be 100% perfect), think of how many thousands of other users there are that aren't complaining and have had no upgrade problems.
as for your apps, well they may not work, i expect there'll be a vast number of app updates hitting the app store over the next week or so.

    My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?

    I tried this and still have the same problems. If I open Address book or the Mac App Store I get the library rebuild popup and a hang. I created a fresh user and then things are better apart from the printing issue. Its clearly some 3rd party software issue but the crash logs are meningless to me. I used the excellent Etre check app from http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck so I have a list of what is being loaded and can compare clean and crashed user info but as I cant work out which of the startup items, launch agents, launch daemons etc that  are causing the problem.
    I have eliminated Dropbox, Mac Keeper and Witness, and it isnt related to my exterrnal LED cinema dispay or my external thunderbolt drives, or any USB devices if thats any help to anyone else. Info from Etrecheck follows -

  • Adobe Extension Manager CS6 update could not be applied

    I have been trying to update my Adobe Extension Manager in CS6 to version 6.0.6 and when I do I receive the error: "update could not be applied ". The only option then is the close. How can this problem be corrected?
    Note: I'm using Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium on Windows 7
    Okay, I just tried uninstalling it and reinstalling after I deleted all mxi files/folders from BOTH "C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6\EM Store" AND "C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Extension Manager CS6 folders. I then tried installing the program again. I then tried updating it using Adobe Application Manager and again it fails and spits back the following code: U44M1P7. I opened the extension manager and checked on the version number mentioned which was 6.0.0.3.4.8 which to me is strange considering that I installed 6.0.6 after the uninstall.
    I can get to the Adobe Extension Manager CS6 6.0.6 06-04-2013.log.gz file but I haven't a clue as to how to open it or attach it to this message.
    Message was edited by: sperry1975

    The error message in the log file is:
    DF045: File corruption detected. Re-install the product & then apply the patch again. (Can not repair file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Extension Manager CS6\Adobe Extension Manager CS6.exe")(Seq 13)
    You can simply delete the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Extension Manager CS6" folder, then download and install http://download.macromedia.com/pub/dw_exchange/extension_manager/win/AdobeExtensionManager 6.0.6All.zip. You will have the latest version of Extension Manager.

  • IPod failure after update : do not panick (too much)

    This message is both to thank helpers on the forum that saved me from having to send my iPod to repair and to those of you who are (or about) to experience the same problem.
    My profile :
    40Go 4th generation iPod with 20Go music in, always handled with extreme care, used daily for 16 months (so out of warranty) without a slightest faillure, including ripping to my new computer.
    PowerBook G4 under Mac OSX 10.4.6. Just to say my message won’t help PC users, sorry.
    Connection Firewire or USB2.
    My nightmaric experience of 2006-03-23 update.
    After I had updated, I transferred a recent playlist OK onto the iPod but to my surprise read 0 playlists, artists, songs etc on the iPod screen and could not access any tracks.
    Did the 5Rs several times with no success, ie different alarm signals would show (not the sad face icon though), the iPod would not connect or would refuse to disconnect or would freeze every app. on my computer which always get a bit scarying. Checked the iPod under disk utility found out several errors.
    After much fiddling around and thanks to fantastic help on the forum (track these by browsing my posts), I think I can tell you now what to do if the same happens to you and help you to recover a fully functional iPod in a couple of hours. But beware that this only applies if you don’t have any physical damage of your hardware. My iPod never made the strange noises that many users report. I should add that I am absolutely convinced that it is the update that interferes with some iPod models and so just the software has to be reinitialized.
    First try a 5R of course, but if this does not solve the problem (in my case it surely did not), switch to disk mode and connect your iPod. If it opens iTunes, quit iTunes and go to disk utility. First check the disk in the SOS panel. It will give you an idea of bad sectors and/or failure to complete. If the checking is OK proceed to erase with the security option « zero out data ». If the disk has bad sectors, you should first do a quick erase with the « don’t erase data » option, then check if the disk passes the check up. If yes return to erase and erase again by selecting « zero out data ». The computer will warn you that you are going to lose functions of the iPod but don’t worry, you will restore these straight afterwards. This reformatting will take maybe a couple of hours but you should see it progressing smoothly with the elapsing time moving on. After it is completed, re-check the disk once more. You are now ready to restore, and I recommend that you do it using a previous soft version, eg, 2006-01-10 for instance, not 2006-03-23 which initially caused the problem. It may freeze while restoring. Don’t panick and try restoring again. I was successful at my second go. Complete restoring, as asked on your computer, by plugging to power supply. Then enter your own settings, langage etc, and come back to your computer, go to iTunes and…
    … I wish you that, a couple of minutes later, you have hundreds songs back onto your favorite music companion and that you are ready for hours of bog-free listening like I am now.
    Just to end up, I’d like to thank all the helpers on the forum (Mitch, Lyssa, Jeff… and co.) who give a lot of their time to the community in avery friendly way. I am in touch with Apple so that if ever the problem happens to be reasonably frequent, they do release a note asap.
    Best of luck to everyone don’t hesitate to contact me on this thread if you need more details on the procedure, I’ll try to help as much as I can but I am not an expert just a regular user of Apple computers and slightly ; ) addicted to music and daily use of iPod (so not so mad afterall… ; ).
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   iPod 40G 4th gen

    Don't give up HOPE ** this work for Mac users only**
    so, after 4 days of trying the disk utility erase mode-- sometimes working sometimes not,,, ditto to all of these posts- my ipod seemed to have a hard drive failure the way it was clicking-- anyways-- here is what worked for me--
    hold the middle button and play/pause until you see the check mark- (this puts the ipod into disk mode)
    plug it in to your computer
    open up the disk utility
    choose Mac OS extended - **make sure the jornaled in not selected, and also **uncheck install OS9
    then erase- you may get the question about naming your ipod if itunes opens and all that -- I'd name it, but make sure you check the option to manually update- you don't want to keep the box checked to sync with your itunes at this point-then eject it by using the eject button from itunes in the window on the left-
    go to your ipod software updater folder (located in your utilities folder)---- here's the catch- the only updater that seemed to work for me- after 4 days of torment- was the
    11-17-05 updater!- (I actually talked to a tech. on the phone and he said the latest update does not have a bug-yeah right,that's when all my problems started- but he said the one before it does!!- thanks for letting us know apple!)
    so, double click it- hit restore - and wow- it actually worked- Good luck peeps- I know, myself, I was very disappointed in apple with this situation- My warranty ran out two months ago!- like many others I see here, I feared i was looking at another 300 dollars for the 30GB- but, alass it worked Amen- Let me know if I can help anyone- I'll check back on the board soon- to answer any questions i can

  • System Update 5 not detecting drivers for M92P (2988-A6U)

    I've installed our corporate image (Windows 7 SP1 - 64bit) which has an older network driver installed. 11.12.36.0
    The latest driver from Lenovo's web site is 11.15.16.0 which installs without a problem.
    So i re-imaged again with the older driver 11.12.36.0 and figured that the easiest way to update the driver(s) would be to use System Update 5. 
    To my surprise when i ran system update it returns the following:
    "No packages applicable to your system were found"
    No i know i could just fix the image and install the driver during the image process but I want to use System Update.
    Does anybody have a clue as to why System Update is not detecting the needed drivers?
    Has anybody had any success with running System Update 5 on a Windows 7 sp1 64-bit machines?
    Thanks-

    Unfortunately right now it appears that the 11.15.16.0 version of that driver does not have TVSU support yet.  Once the content team completes the process of creating and testing the package through TVSU, it will be published for customers.  I'll try to find out where this one falls in the queue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

  • Windows update does not work after using System recovery disk

    I have a Toshiba Satellite c655 with WIndows 7 64 bit Home premium. The hard drive died on it, so I purchased a new hard drive and purchased the appropriate Recovery media from Toshiba. I followed the directions and installed the 3 disks on to the new hard drive. But Windows update does not work I get the following error: Windows update can not currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your PC    No matter what I try, I can not get it to work. And it will not let me install Windows Defender either. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time on this matter.

    I do have a questiion.  I started the most recent iOS update on my iPhone last night and before it was ever completed a message appeared on my screen.  It is a pic of the docking/charging cord with an arrow pointing to an iTunes logo...HELP!!!!!  I have tried holding down the home key and power button several times and the same message continues to appear. 

  • HT201210 My download for iOS 7 was interrupted, it has downloaded but not installed. it goes through routine Terms & Agreements and everything, but when i try to update it tries to verify the update then says that the update is not available.

    I dont understand, when i try to update it will go through routine apple stuff, then it it will say " Software Update Unavailable (under) Software Update is not available at this time. Try again later." The thing is that i was downloading it and my wi-fi had restarted for some unknown reason and it downloaded onto my phone but not installed. and at the moment it is really bothering me because I have waited a long time for iOS 7 and I am not being allowed to update my phone to it and i just wanted to know how to fix it. Thank you.

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to download 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.

    You need to connect your iPod to iTunes on a computer and update from there.
    Before updating, I recommend that you create a backup first, using : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
    Please note that iPod 3d generation only goes up to iOS 5.1.1
    To update the iPod, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4623

  • "The updater does not have a firmware image"

    My initial problem was that I suddenly could not copy purchased music from iTunes to my iPod. I tried the suggestion of downloading the iPod Updater. The Updater did indicate that my iPod software, 2.2, "needs update". Upon attempting to install the Updater (by clicking 'Update'), I received the following message: "The Updater does not have a firmware image." I notice that SEVERAL people are having the same problem at this very moment on this message board. I hope someone from Apple notices this fiasco and does something to fix it. Please help. Restoring my iPod is not an option for me. Thanks.

    Yes, I've had this problem too. And the iPod has not been updated with any of the tracks I bought since updating to iTunes 5, but iTunes REloaded all the older tracks onto my iPod. Why? Seeing as the upgrade to iTunes 5 was a bit traumatic in itself, I'm not altogether surprised to discover the newer tracks had not been copied: there is obviously some incompatability here somewhere - but goodness knows where.

    problem updating to iphoto 9.6 after upgrading to Yoesmite  I am getting the following message when I try top date iPhoto This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or canc

    "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled." ?
    This error message will appear erraneously, if you skipped the update to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5.1 and went straight from an earlier MacOS X version to Yosemite, without first updating to iPhoto 9.5.1 and associating iPhoto to your AppleID.
    Try first to buy iPhoto with your AppleID instead of updating. Delete iPhoto from Applications, but don't empty the Trash, then go to the main page of the App Store and search for iPhoto. If you are lucky, it will show as free and you can buy it directly.
    If iPhoto  is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support: Ask for a redemption code. You will need to provide a prove of purchase for your mac with iPhoto preinstalled.
