Update tampered with during download message?
I received an error message on both my mini and macbook pro while installing the most recent security, safari, and remote desktop client updates. I've never seen anything like this before, i.e., the warning that the update may have been tampered with during download. I read the support docs about verifying the certif. #s and saw they were in fact different (the one I downloaded from the Apple support site) but it also said to use software update function in OSX to complete the update - which I did... What the heck is going on with this? remote desktop client is not even something I even want or need? Please advise.
Thanks

Part of the OS. Not sure on the other problem.

can some one help me? I have been trying to update my MAC and it will not download because this message come up
(The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.)For anyone that comes across this. I managed to fix the problem. It had something to do with the date on my computer. Mavericks installer apparently does a date check of some sort and that is where the error is coming from. Open terminal and check the system date. It may be wrong. Another poster in the forums told me how to to check the date and change it. Click here for the link to the explanation. Be careful because the date is in a weird format.

I have not been able to install Max OS X Lion because in the process the following message was displayed:
"THE SOFTWARE COULD NOT BE VERIFIED. IT MAY HAVE BEEN CORRUPTED OR TAMPERED WITH DURING DOWNLOADING"
How can I solve this?
Note: I trashed the download and tried re-downloading but this effort was unsuccessful.Since writing my original post I decided to send the following message to Mac App Store Customer Support:
"I have had to download this file from the app store at least ten (10) times. I try to install the file but I keep getting the message "The software could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading."
I then delete the same file and try another attempt at a different time of day. Most recently following Apple Support's advice I contacted my ISP to clear the file cache but they could only clear my browser cache. I have deleted my com.apple.appstore. folder which contains app store cache, also com.apple.appstore.plist and tried again to no avail. I have wasted hours doing all this and I now want my money back please. You can keep this software update until you release it on disk like Snow Leopard which installed like a dream. I'm very disappointed with Apple that they expect the purchaser to do all the work trying to diagnose their software installation issue. Nice idea but poorly executed has been my experience."
I received this message which has confirmed my refund request:
Julia here from the iTunes Store. I understand that you received an error message and have been unable to install OS X Lion. I know how eager you must be to have this resolved, and I will be happy to help in any way that I can.
Please accept my sincere apologies for the frustration this download has caused. Since you were unable to enjoy this purchase, I have gone ahead and issued a refund. In five to seven business days, a credit of £20.99 should be posted to the credit card that appears on the receipt for that purchase.
If you have any other questions or concerns regarding this issue, please reply so I can assist you further. Thank you for being an iTunes Store customer.
Sincerely,
Julia
iTunes Store/Mac App Store Customer Support
Perhaps I'll wait for a disk to become available or see if a download to a pen drive at an Apple store is possible. -
Can't download the latest iTunes. A window pops up... The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.
Now, iTunes won't launch and can't be updated. Please help.
If I have lost my music collection I will be switching platforms ASAP. It is insane that Apple has updates seemingly every day for their products.I was in your same situation with 14 downloads and 14 attempts.
You have to make sure that your Mac is booting into 64 bit mode. You can make sure of this by going into System Preferences and scrolling down to 'Software' and making sure that you are booding with 64 bit Kexts.
If not, restart while holding the 6 and 4 keys down until you see the spinning gear wheel and try installng again.
BUT, what I also did was to go into Applications, click on the Lion installer, Get Info, and give yourself custom priviliges to Read And Write.
I did this simultaneously, and I don't know what function did it, but it worked for me, with no further downloads of the installer.
Good luck! -

When trying to download the New Lion Software from the App Store I get this. The software could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. I am signed in as the administrator - what do I do?? Thanks
The couple of times I got a message like that, repairing permissions on the boot volume fixed the problem.

Downloaded latest OS X and installed on my Mac Book Pro (early 2008). No problems.
Then attempted to install on my Mac Mini 2011 and continuously getting the following message:
"This copy of the Install OS X Mountain Lion application can't be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading."
I noticed that I am not the only one...
Anyone with a solution.
So far all I see are various attempts by people, some successful others not.
This should not be a frustrating complicated ordeal!!!

General Surgery,
Trauma Surgery Critical Care.Yup, the safe mode/repair/redownload/install finally solved it - had to do it after midnight as all the 4gig downloads have already trashed my 60gig internet limit for this month, installed REALLY slowly bugt eventually at 0330 i had working Mountatin Lion on my Macbook.
This has to be the most tedious upgrade, Mac OR Windows, I've ever done. Takes me back to inserting 15 floppies for sheer inconvenience, and from the numbers reporting this problem, it's more than an occasional glitch. And for some reason the download always fails if left unattended, even if all the sleep modes, etc, are negated.
3/10 to Apple this time around. -
I can't intall the OS lion. is show me this message, The software could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading.?
I encountered the same error "…can't be verified…" error on my 2010 MBP too. Tried six times and finally I could get it installed. Here's what I did:
Went to "Users & Groups" in System Preferences, checked that the Apple ID specified for the current user is the same Apple ID I used in the download purchase of ML from the App Store.
Rebooted in Safe Mode.
Went to Disk Utility -> Repair Disk Permissions
Downloaded ML at midnight (and the download was significantly faster!)
Rebooted in Normal Mode.
Ran the ML Installer. -

Creative Cloud update fails with "the download appears to be corrupted" when tried through our company's firewall, but succeeds if the computer is taken outside the firewall. The IT guys have opened up the ports and URL's specified in the Adobe documentation. I have also captured the network traffic of both the failed and successful downloads for IT to examine (using Little Snitch), however they can find nothing to account for the problem. Adobe just seems to "give up and die" after about 2-3 minutes. Why is this? How can I or IT fix this?
Can I send the above log files to someone familiar with these issues for examination?Hi Gveo,
Please follow the article: Creative Cloud Help | About Creative Cloud Packager which will help you to get your issue fixed.
Thanks,

Persistent Error During Download message
I realize this issue has been posted multiple times in the past, but we've been experiencing it consistently for the past several days. I've checked the DPS status site and also scoured the Forums to see if anyone else recently posted something.
Using the ACV, and when trying to download updates to a folio, we continually receive the error message: Error During Download, Please resume your download later." Getting this error message on iPads running iOS 5, 6 and 7. Updating content within the folio producer works fine, as does previewing a local version.
We've tried signing out and signing back in, deleting the ACV and reinstalling, nothing works.
We're of course under a deadline and unable to have remote staff proof a final version of our folio.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.We recently completed an AWS migration which has resulted in a number of intermittent outages and download issues. These outages haven't affected folios published to the Folio Producer Service—just the acrobat.com folios used for testing and sharing. Please bear with us while we resolve these issues.
As noted, the workaround for downloading content is to publish a folio as Free and Private. However, this workaround doesn't work for shared folios.
We'll provide more details when we have them. Check the status page (http://status.adobedps.com/) for additional details and updates. -
As I mentioned, there is an error while trying to update photoshop, camera raw, etc. I receives message when you try to download the update, an error occurred. Exit and try again later.
What to do? Without Camera Raw update I can't open Raw files from my cameras. Guy from chat on adobe website just give me link for support website, it's ridiculous.abdzi schrieb:
Hi,
Finally I made an update. I used download files from Adobe update pages (the same websites that were offline for few days), I couldn't do it automatically from PS CS5 application. Last problem is Adobe Extension update, can't do it automatically and manually becouse there are no update files for Adobe Extension CS5 for Windows (only for Mac). Most important is that my Camera Raw can open files from my cameras now. Thank You for your help.
Hey abdzi could you give a short explanation were you found which download files?? I have the same problem and realy need the Camera Raw update. Please!! Thank you -
iTunes fails to update. During download, it gets to last (presunambly) package and hangs at last 3 Mb. I have left it for days, it won't complete. Any idea how to fix?
This is a common issue. Temporarily disable the Anti-Virus and Firewall software on the computer.

Apple Software Update gets stuck during download.
My daughter was updating iTunes with ASU and we lost power. Now the download gets to about 11MB, gets stuck, and never finishes. It will sit at 11MB forever. I've tried deleting the files in the installer caches, I've tried repairing ASU.
Anybody have any ideas?I suggest you to upgrade by the alternate and easiest way by downloading from
