Update to The 10.4.11 Update Combined(Intel) impossible

Dear users,
I reinstalled my mac using my Tiger 10.4.4 installation CDs. When I then tried installing the latest update: Mac OS X 10.4.11 Update Combined(Intel) the computer refused.
The following error message appears:
A networking error has occurred: timed out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again.
How come ?
Thank you for any type of help.
Om Shanti

Hi Om shanti, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Sounds like you were using Software Update!?
I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.
My advice...
Get the combo update for Intel-based Macs here...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateintel.html
Then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions,apply the update.
Repair Permissions after install, then reboot.

  • Update Combined (Intel) from 10.4.5 to 10.4.8

    Wont boot after update. Ends with spinning load symbol. Doesnt go to User Selection.
    I have to revert to install DVD (10.4.5) to get back in.
    What do I need to do?
    Also, I tried to install 10.4.7 and I get the message "You cannot install Mac OSX Update (Intel) on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update."
    Specs:
    15.9GB Free
    Intel Core Cuo: 1.66
    Boot Rom Version: MM11.0055.B03
    SMC Version: 1.3f4

    You can't install 10.4.7 because the installer recognises that you have 10.4.8 already.
    The fix is a bit time-consuming, but you'll need the original MacOS install DVD that came with the mini. Insert that in the system, then reboot with the C key held down to force it to boot from the optical drive.
    Once you have the system running, select the option to 'Archive and Install'. This will put a new copy of the original MacOS on your system, while archiving all the settings etc you had. An explanation of the archive and install process is at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    ON EDIT: once you have your mini booted back into 10.4.5 (presumably the MacOS version it was supplied with), you can recover settings from the archived 10.4.8. However, I would generally suggest you DON'T do this unless you really need to, since the problem you had may have been caused by a latent issue with MacOS prior to applying the 10.4.8 combo updater.

  • Mac OS X Update Combined (Intel) 10.4.9 315 MB

    hi,
    ok how do i update my os (now at 1..4.5) if this update screws up my computer........it's happened twice.......both times involved really long sessions with mac tech to archive and install.........no apple care and no phone left but they helped me anyway???
    so - how do i update my OS X 10.4.9 if it screws it up?
    the first time it never stopped loading and
    the second time i got the "kernel panic"
    (the second time someone else was using my computer when the update came up and decided to install it - after less than a minute the "kernel panic" screen showed up..
    thanks,
    sunny

    Do the following:
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
    2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
    4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
    5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)
    6. Carbon Copy Cloner (Freeware - 3.0 is a Universal Binary)
    7. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
    The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
    1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
    2. Toast
    3. Impression
    4. arRSync
    Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
    Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files.
    Once you have a working clone of your system on an external backup drive you can then update your system. If there are problems you can boot from the backup, erase the internal drive, and restore the old system.
    Never install new system updates without first repairing the hard drive and permissions. Quit all applications before updating and do not touch the computer until the installation has completed. If you have third-party peripherals attached temporarily remove them. For additional protection boot into safe mode before installing updates. Turn off automatic updates in Software Update to avoid having other users update your system outside of your control.

  • The update "Mac OS X update combined (powerpc)" can't be installed?

    I recently upgraded from OS X 10.3.9 to Tiger (10.4.6) and encountered a weird problem. My system is a Dual 1GHz G4 (mirror drive door) with 768 MB RAM.
    When I try to launch iTunes, I get an error telling me that "iTunes requires Mac OS X 10.4.7 or later..."
    That never happened before, so I assume that the Tiger installation (or a Software Update I was unaware of) sabotaged iTunes by imposing this new requirement.
    Now here's the irony: I can't install OS X 10.4.7! When I run Software Update, it tries to install Mac OS X Update Combined (PowerPC) 10.4.10-- but it fails every time with the message:
    The update "Mac OS X update combined (powerpc)" can't be installed.
    The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by "Apple."
    So this seems to be a transmission error, or something wrong with Apple's server. I've tried this repeatedly over the last few days, but nothing changes.
    Any suggestions? I tried downloading the installer from Apple's download page, but it results in the same error. Is there perhaps a clean version of 10.4.8 I can download from somewhere?
    It's really frustrating not being able to run iTunes because of an OS "upgrade."

    Then, stop using Software Update, click the Downloads link at the page's top, and manually download the COMBO update. As for iTunes, apparently you installed a later version. With 10.4.6, your quite a few updates behind: OS, security, iTunes, and QuickTime, just to name a few. Before you update, be sure you make a bootable backup/clone. Details for doing that are in these:

  • The update "Mac OS X Update Combined" can't be saved.

    A few days ago my mac ( late 2009 model MacBook pro running lion 10.7.2 ) started freezing, a lot. The freezing seemed to be a problem with osx itself rather than with any particular program. So I initiated software update hoping that there would be an osx update. Low and behold, there was.
    Here is the problem.... I can't get it. I have tried twice and both times I get this message
    "The update “Mac OS X Update Combined” can’t be saved.
    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."
    Any ideas?

    Ok this problem has developed somewhat.
    My machine has gone from bad freezing spells to being downright broken.
    I rebooted the machine and got stuck at login screen.
    Rebooted again and didn't get to login screen.
    Rebooted again and got logged in but my desktop was unresponsive and then started flashing between the desktop image and a plain grey screen. I did this literally all night (left it over night).
    So today I have booted up from an install of lion I have on an external FireWire drive. And all is well. I am trying to backup things like my photo library and other documents so that I can format the internal hard drive and and do a clean install.
    I can access the hard drive, see all the files, but when trying to copy it over I get an error message saying
    "the finder can't complete the operation because some data in "iPhoto library" can't be read or written ( error code -36 )
    Now before anyone screams broken hard drive, the data can be read, because I can view it all in finder. Just can't copy it out to an external drive.
    Please help!!
    Oh ps. Before booting from the external I created a new admin account on my machine and booted int that. The freezing problem was the same as in my normal account.

  • I am upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I keep getting an error when I try to load the Mac Os x update combined. It says that it was corrupted during download. Have try loading from Apple website V10.6.7 upgrade combined but it still won't do it?

    I have an Intel Desktop iMac and I am upgrading from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I keep getting an error when it tries to load the Mac OS X update combined. It says that it was corrupted during download. Have try loading from Apple website  Mac OS X V10.6.7 upgrade combined but it still won't do it? Any other suggestions. The printer is not working either - I am not sure if they are connected. Everything else is fine.

    Please excuse, but I have to ask an obvious question: Did you already update using the Snow Leopard Retail install DVD? (You must do this first; 10.6.7 is just an update if you already have 10.6.) Are you, then, trying to update from whatever version was on the install DVD to 10.6.7?
    Otherwise, I'd keep trying. The 10.6.7 Combo is a huge update.

    Well, I've tried your solution without luck.
    So, I tried reinstalling OS X Mountain Lion (without formatting the HDD) and it worked! I did it like this:
    - Turned on my MBP while holding down Command-R to start OS X Recovery
    - Chose the option to reinstall OS X Mountain Lion
    After a while, the system rebooted and OS X 10.8.2 was already installed. All my data remained on the HDD since I didn't format it before reinstalling OS X.
    Hope it helps some of you with the same problem.

  • My computer got corrupted when I tried to install the Mac OS X update combined

    When I tried to download 5 new updates the download could not be completed it got stuck on the Mac OS X update combined. I have the snow leopard and was advised to reinstall the operating system. Can I do this without loosing what I have? Is there something else that I can do?

    You can reinstall Snow Leopard without erasing the disk but hopefully you have a backup of your important files just in case.

  • HELP: The update "Mac OS X Update Combined" can't be saved error -1001

    I have a Mac Mini at a vacation town home, so it needs quite a few updates whenever I use it. Everything installed fine except a combined 10.5.6 and 10.5.7 update. Everytime I attempt to download/install it, it will download a few mbs, then stop and give me the error:
    *The update “Mac OS X Update Combined” can’t be saved.*
    A networking error has occurred: timed out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again.
    My internet never seems to have conked out, as the 'ready' light on my modem is always lit, so where is the problem here?

    Installed Snow Leopard OK, but when uploading the Mac OS X Update Combined, it would not save. It said it could not connect to update server, but my internet connection is working. Any suggestions on fixing?

    Run software up date, write down the update name and version. Go to the Apple site and do a search for the updates one at a time and download them one at a time. Use an ethernet connection, sometimes software update "crushes large updates. I have experienced this before.  Hope it helps.  ATB

  • Mac OS X Update Combined v. 10.5.6 wouldn't install

    I have a MacBookPro Mac OS X 10.5.4 2.5 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 2GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM memory, I installed the update to the Mac OS X Update Combined 10.5.6 version, it worked, I click install in the Software Update app., it tells me to restart, I click "restart now" and so far so good.
    The installation begins, and it gets stuck at around 10%. I thought maybe it needed time, so I kept it all night, for about 7 hours, the next morning it was still stuck where i left it, it didn't move a tiny bit. So i'm not sure how to get the installation for my update to work, or where am i going wrong (all the other updates were installed successfully except this one)?
    Any suggestions, please.

    I'm left confused by this discussion... and, I would hate to add to the confusion of others. But here is my problem: If you've downloaded the combo update from the Apple website, there is no need to utilize Software Update to install the program!
    Software Update is useful only to the extent that it can alert you to the existence of an available update. It is up to you whether you wish to proceed with the update (via Software Update). My preference, however, is to do as you have done: download the Combo (if available) update from Apple website, then restart your Mac in Safe Boot and install the dmg/pkg that you now have waiting in your "downloads" folder.
