Update to 10.4.4 now software update does not work

Updated using the standalone installer and now Software Update will not launch, although I can run it from the Preference pane. Tried repair permissions. Ran cron scripts. Ran the combo update. Still no luck. Any ideas. Thanks.

Confusing because they contradict each other. Where are you trying in the failed instance? From the About this Mac menu item? Please be a bit more specific. If my assumption is correct, then create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if it works there. Report back.

    1.  Since you "upgraded" to Mountain Lion (presumably from Snow Leopard) partition your hard drive or add an external hard drive and install Snow Leopard and use the "dual-boot" method to access Microsoft Office 2004 when needed; or
    2.  Install Snow Leopard Server ($20 by telephone order only from Apple) into Parallels 8 and have concurrent access to Microsoft Entourage 2004 while in Mountain Lion:

    You can then access your emails in Entourage and either continue to use Entourage, or export/import them into Microsoft Outlook 2011, Apple's OS X Mail, Mozilla's Thunderbird, or otherwise.

  • S5 updated to Lollipop 5.0, now cellular data does not work

    My Galaxy S5 phone automatically updated to Lollipop 5.0 last night and now I am having connectivity issues using cellular network.  I click on my chrome icon and the internet page comes up.  I type in a web address and it will just keep showing the loading "circle".  Eventually it will time out and exit me back to the home screen.  If the page does load, it only does a partial load.  If I scroll to the bottom of the page where the load ends, it will kick me back out to the home screen or continue to load without actually loading. I have turned the wi-fi off.  I have toggled airplane mode.  I have toggled celluar mode.  I have pulled the battery. I have wiped the cache partition.

    Having the device searching in global mode for a signal can cause the battery to drain more quickly than if it were only looking for the CDMA or LTE networks for voice and data. I would also make sure that the display is set to auto, and that you're only using the vibrate function when you need to in order to make the battery last longer through the day.

    Go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and check to see if they have released an updated driver for your particular model.

    I updated my itunes (latest verion out as of nov/20/2012) and restored my 2nd gen itouch, now my itouch does not work properly (keeps freezing). how do i fix this?

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • I updated to ios 7 and now the battery does not stop charging any ideas, or have to wait for update? thanks

    i updated to ios 7 and now the battery does not stop charging any ideas, or have to wait for update? thanks

    To show the battery percentage used go to settings
    from there click general scroll to usage and select
    scroll to bottom of page for battery usage select on.
    This will show the icon battery and the percent numbers on the top right.
    When phone is connected to an outlet sometimes it does not always show complete charge. I do not understand why but it is what it is.
    FYI I sent reply to you not to deggie. You can have your own satisfaction to reply direct.

    Hi,
    /Users/sarahschadek/Desktop/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari
    Move the Safari app from the Desktop to the Applications folder.
    Restart your Mac.
    That's why you see this:
    When I try to do the updates my computer says it has ready it goes through like it is downloading them then at the end it says some of the files could not be saved to "/" files.
    After your restart your Mac, click the Apple  menu (top left in your screen) then click:  Software Update ...

  • I am new to mac air. Today i installed (unsuccessfully!) MAPLE16 on my mac book air. Now since it does not work properly (it also does not appear in  applications) i decide to delete it. I could not remove it from launchpad . i need urgent help

    i am new to mac air. Today i installed (unsuccessfully!) MAPLE16 on my mac book air. Now since it does not work properly (it also does not appear in  applications) i decide to delete it. I could not remove it from launchpad . i need urgent help from your side.

    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 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.brickmyrmac.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.
    You generally have to reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
    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.
    You may be advised by others to try to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name, or by running "utilities" that purport to remove software. I don't give such advice. Those tactics often will not work and maymake the problem worse.

  • HT1414 my iphone 4s will not come on.  i used it today now it just does not work.  i cant power off or nothing.

    my iphone 4s will not come on.  i used it today now it just does not work.  i cant power off or nothing.

    Try this...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the Phone On...
