Where does Snow Leo download the upgrade packages?

The software-upgrade function starts automatically in my osx 10.6, it downloads all the upgrade packages but before installing them, it asks me if I want to install all of them or few of them. Last time, I wanted to install only few of them. Now my question is: where did Snow Leopard download the rest of the upgrade packages that I didn't install? Can I delete them?
Thanks a lot for your answers.

Software Update will always download the updates to /Library/Updates.  That is the Library folder at the root of your hard drive.
There is an option in SU to have it automatically download updates in the background.  In this case, all updates may already be downloaded by the time you see them listed in SU.  Downloading and installing are two distinct processes.  Just because SU downloads an update, it will not install the updates until you tell it to.
There is also an option to not have SU download the updates in the background.  In this case, when SU notifies you that there is an update available, it will first have to download the software before it can install it.  Again, the download will be temporarily placed in the /Library/Updates directory.

  • Where can I find/download the package that contains: OracleConnectionPoolD

    Hi,
    I have classes12.zip and can make successful database connections using Oracle's JDBC driver.
    However, when I tried to run a connection pooling example - from a text book (called "PooledExample.java") - I got the following error messages...
    C:\testdart\testdart\source>javac PooledExample.java
    PooledExample.java:5: package oracle.jdbc.driver does not exist
    import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;

    location: class PooledExample
    new OracleConnectionPoolDataSource();

    Where can I find/download the package that contains these classes (I'm assuming that there missing)? Is it possible that JDBC 2.0 works for Oracle9i only? (I'm using Oracle8i)
    I looked on Oracle's website but its not clear where to download this API
    Thanks!!!

    They should be in classes12.zip (oracle.jdbc.driver definitely is). It sounds like you don't have classes12.zip in your classpath when you are compiling. Normally you don't use the Oracle classes directly so you only need classes12.zip when running your application but in your case you are directly referring to them in your Java source code so you need them when you compile.

  • Where can I find the link to download the upgrade from 5 to Lightroom 6 (stand alone) version?

    Where can I find the link to download the upgrade from 5 to Lightroom 6 (stand alone) version?

    Just to be clear for others who might read this thread: There is a free trial available for both CC and standalone (perpetual license) customers.   The free trial for both sets of customers is called "CC"; but if at the end of the trial you want to convert to a standalone (perpetual) license, it's just as easy as with previous versions.  You pay $149 ($79 if upgrading), get a license key, and enter the key into the free trial.

    Hi Godavari,
    All the packages required by Oracle 10g can be found on the OEL4 installation Disks.
    For example,
    If you are using OEL4 installation CDs, you can find the gnome-libs package at /Enterprise/RPMS/gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-44.2.i386.rpm.
    BTW, you can also use "up2date --install <packagename>" if you can access ULN.

  • Where can I download the upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6?

    Where can I download the upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6?

    Call 1-800-MY-APPLE to buy the DVD ... no download for it.
    $19 for single user license, $29 for 5-user license (Apple will eventually stop sellingand only Amazon at $100+ will be left, so you may want to buy a 5-user pack now).

    Because the file is over 5 GBs. If your internet service is slow then it can take a long time - several hours.

  • HT5037 It doesn't work for me. Anyone got any suggestions? Just gets into a loop where I upgrade and then launch and it says I need to download the upgrader and upgrade again. Help!!

    I want to open some old iphoto libraries. The new iphoto says I have to upgrade the library, so I downloaded the upgrader and ran it on the library I wanted to upgrade and still it would not open, just kept giving me the same error message about needing to upgrade the library!! How can I open that old library file?

    Did you go to Applications/Utilities and find the upgrader app and then double click it?

  • Where does iTunes 7 keep the iPod software?

    Hi All,
    I work in technical support and am a bit let down by the current embedded iPod updater in iTunes 7. This works ok except for one thing, after downloading the latest iPod updater from within iTunes 7, i want to transfer the updater to various machines. Searching the libraries came up with nada. Only once i opened up the iTunes 7 package did i find "iPodUpdater.framework" in contents. It also appears that a different updater is downloaded for each model of iPod as opposed to the old stand-alone all-in-one iPod updater. So, Where does iTunes 7 keep the iPod software? We are very bandwidth challenged in my country so it is very handy to be able to keep the latest updates on an external drive, usb disk, etc.
    While the embedded updater is nice and clever i think a bit more needs to be done, maybe put it into the Application Support Folder or something?
    Thank you in advance

    Thanx for your reply SeaBeast.
    Erm, ok maybe I'm not being clear.
    Pre iTunes7: iPod's were updated using the iPod updater application located in /Applications/Utilities. This could be downloaded as a standalone app and showed up in software updater when updating of the app was required. Easy.
    iTunes7:iPod updater is now part of iTunes. Updates are downloaded from within iTunes ( iPod model specific it seems ) and sometimes it has to be forced to update, see
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060912144151766
    Where does it keep these downloaded updates?
    Does it modify the existing "iPod Updater 2006-06-28.app"?
    To my knowledge it is now seperate from this. If it was still seperate i could download it from Apple as a stand-alone but as far as i can see this is no longer the case. Please help. Maybe I'm just being a ******* and missing something simple here.
    Thanx again.

  • Where does Snow Leopard store iTunes Music

    Greetings,
    I wanted to get a clean start for my iTunes Library.
    First, I deleted my iTunes folder in Documents into the trash and then emptied the Trash. Second, I deleted the iTunes app.
    I went to iTunes and downloaded a new iTunes application. After it was installed the entire iTunes music library was there when I opened my new download of the iTunes Application.
    Where did it come from if I deleted my iTunes folder thinking I was deleting all of my downloaded songs?
    So my question is where does Snow Leopard store these songs? I assumed they would be gone so I could begin to put in new albums in my iTunes.
    Thanks in advance for your help and support.
    Leigh

    You can find out or change where the actual songs are by opening iTunes/Preferences/Advanced (I'm still on iTunes 8 so I apologize if your menu looks different). Click my link below. The yellow highlight is mine.

  • When I attempt to download the upgrade to Lightroom CC I get the message "Lightroom is downloading now..." however, nothing happens.

    I have the Adobe CC Photographers package. When I attempt to download the upgrade to Lightroom CC I get the message "Lightroom is downloading now..." however, nothing happens. The download does not begin, I get no error messages.is the 2nd day that Lightroom CC has been available. Is the problem that Adobe can not handle the volume or do I have another problem?
    Thanks, Charles

    I'm experiencing the same exact problem.  I thought the Adobe CC Photographers package was supposed to provide us with automatic updates?  This is not a good user experience, and I hope that Adobe will remedy it soon.
    Thanks,
