Why won't OSX update? I checked file permissions, NG.

When I try to update OSX, I keep getting an error message. I have done a clean reinstall on the OS, used Disk Utilities to check the HD and verify file permissions. When verifying file permissions, all kinds of new permissions are granted. I don't understand these or where else to look for help, as updates still won't install.
Is this worth pursuing, or do I have a HD or logic board problem here?

Did you verify file permissions or repair file permissions? The latter is what you need to do. Have you tried it with the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Combo Update?

  • Why won't FireFox 4 play mp3 files that have been created since the FF update? It will play mp3 files created prior to the FF update. All of the mp3 files have been created in the same manner, as bounces from Logic Pro 9. Thank you.

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

  • Why won't elements 12 download raw files from Nikon D810?

    Why won't elements 12 download raw files from Nikon D810?  I got a message saying that the camera model is not supported by installed version of camera raw.  How do I fix it?

    Photoshop Elements questions should be posted in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum. Somehow your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
    You can re-post your thread in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.
    My opinion on this....from the Photoshop Elements perspective...
    Nikon D810 is supported by Camera Raw 8.6 and higher (latest version of Camera Raw is 8.7)
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    At the same time, the Camera Raw version needs to be supported by the Photoshop Elements version.
    Photoshop Elements 12 appears to support Camera Raw up to 8.5 which does not support the Nikon D810.
    Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
    Solution...
    a. switch to Photoshop Elements 13 (comes with Camera Raw 8.6 and can be updated to 8.7).
    b. use the DNG Converter in Photoshop Elements 12

  • Why won't Aperture 2 support RAW files imported from Canon 60D when it does from my Olympus DSLR?

    Why won't Aperture 2 support RAW files imported from Canon 60D when it does from my Olympus DSLR?

    I'm afriad the fact that your Olympus dSLR is supported is no relevance.
    The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
    Support for individual camera models has to be added one by one, and Apple will update the OS to work with the most recent version of the software. That's an incentive for you to keep up-to-date. So, for support for your 60D you'll need 10.6.5 plus Aperture 3 and/or iPhoto 11.

  • Why won't Apple update its iPAD to send messages other than imessages?

    Why won't Apple update its iPAD to send messages to phones with systems other and OS? I just purchased an ipad4 for my husband. This limitation is very frustrating. When I purchased and ipad3, I was told how to make the message go through as an SMS; however, this never worked. Had it not been for the fact that my husband has an iphone5 and getting an ipad with the same operating sytem simplifies things for him, it may have been better to get an Android tablet and switch phones!

    I understand that, but it does have a message system, so it makes sense that you should be able to receive ALL messages via this system.  I do have a phone and I can get them all, but if I sit down at the ipad to check messages, I only get those sent through imessage.  Sorry, I'm venting and you probably can't do anything about it.  Apple needs to wake up and figure out that if it doesn't change its protocol on the ipad, then people will switch to another system that does. Hoping that someone from Apple sees this.

  • Why won't osx mavericks upgrade or download

    Spent two days trying to upgrade. Backed up system, cleaned system, repaired disk permission, still nothing. Other than too many people trying to download/upgrade, why won't OSX Mav work?
    Upon first try, apps appeared on desktop as if it was upgrading, but no download/upgrade window.

    Now have tried changing DNS to Google, after reading other discussion posts. Free Upgrade button is green for a split second, and then button becomes gray and reads Download. Is this the problem, that it needs to be green indicating it's available, as with the very first try?

  • Why won't Numbers update free, when my other iWork apps have update for free?

    why won't Numbers update free, when my other iWork apps have update for free?

    I'm not sure if this answers your question. I will update them in iTunes. Then I will connect my phone and in the phone controls I can click the "Update" button and it will change to "Will Update" but doesn't.
    That's part of the problem. Once upon a time, iTunes would just automatically update apps from the computer to the phone and now it apparently requires prompting that doesn't work.

  • Why won't excel read my csv file created with the powersell out-file automatically.

    I wrote a PowerShell script that creates a CSV formatted file.  The script simply creates a comma delimited string for each entry and adds it to a collection.  Then the out-file command write it to a file.
    When you open it with Excel each line is put into one cell.  If you import the file and specify the "," as the delimiter, it imports just fine.  If the data is saved out again as a csv file,  the file is about half the size and opens
    just fine with excel.
    If you open the original file and the file created by Excel with notepad, they look the same.
    So the files are different in size, contents look the same, but Excel won't automatically open the original file.
    Any ideas of why this happens?  Also PowerShell and Excel are both running on Server 2012 R2.  Excel is a remote app.
    If I do an export-CSV, I get some kind of information about the object.
    Here is the script:
    foreach ($group in $groups)
       $header += '"' + $group.name + '",'
       $CSVdata = @()
       $CSVdata += $header
       # Create a user entry
       $users = Get-ADUser -filter * |select SamAccountname, Name | sort SamAccountName
       foreach ($user in $users)
          $Groupmembership = Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership -Identity $user.SamAccountName
          $userentry = '"' + $user.SamAccountName + '",'
          $user
          foreach ($group in $groups)
              if ($Groupmembership.SamAccountName -contains $group.SamAccountName) { $userentry += '"X",'}
              else { $userentry += '"",' }
           $CSVdata += $userentry
          $CSVdata
          Out-File -inputobject $CSVdata -FilePath c:\batch\GroupMembership.csv

    Ok the script works exactly like I want it.  Thank you very much.
    I am trying to understand the script but I am unable to figure out what the line "$keys=$t.Keys|%{$_}"
    does.  I figured ".keys" was a method but my search for it comes up blank.  Do you have a reference you can point me to?  

  • Why won't iTunes read an RSS file

    I have had Radio National podcasts in itunes for a while but it has not updated since Dec 13 and I went to the website to download the new podcasts and it says that I do not have a RSS reader loaded?
    Why won't itunes do it?
    thanks
    Lee

    Are you talking about one of these:
    http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/podcasts/program/
    Click where it says 'Subscribe in iTunes'. When the page opens, click 'View in iTunes'. When iTunes opens and shows the Store page click 'Subscribe'.
    If that doesn't answer it, you need to give more details as to what exactly you are doing.

  • Why won't my L4P and LKS files launch on customer's computer?

    Events make me almost sure I caused this, but would appreciate help if there's a way to prevent doing this all over again...
    Customer had a process file that was running fine, but with an increasing number of staff with access to Lookout he wanted user accounts created and security levels assigned to numerous Lookout objects (accounts and objects were all at default settings). He emailed me the LKS and L4P files, I edited them, and emailed them back. 
    The L4P and LKS launch fine on my computer, but won't on the customer's. On the customer's computer, launching the LKS file produces a compile error, but doesn't identify the error. I've also emailed the files to a colleague, who replied he had no problem either. Should mention colleague (like me) is running North American Win XP. 
    Files were generated in Ver 6.02(1) on WinXP machines, and bench tested fine on a Ver 6.1 Runtime also under XP.
    The customer is located in Poland, has a Ver 6.1 Runtime, and is running it on a Win NT machine. 
    So assuming for a moment I caused this anomaly during my editing, why do the files not work at customer's location and why won't the compiler identify what it is?
    More to the point, how do I fix this?

    Yo, JPhillips:
    Thanks for the tip. Took a look at the err file (see for yourself)... 
    Lookout Process File Compiler Version 6.1 (build 27)
    Copyright National Instruments 1992-2007  All rights reserved.
    cannot open source file: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Lookout 6.1\cedrob.lks 
    This is the same folder where the unedited files WILL work. 
     Ryan, I've uploaded the cedrob2.zipfile to the ftp site. Would appreciate you having a look at it.
    There is certainly a mystery here. If I'm working at a site where the OS is all English, I weigh how much editing I might have to perform and consider moving my Integrator license from my laptop to the customer's computer (to take advantage of the bigger screen, mouse, keyboard and the on-line editing of Lookout) for the duration of the session. In this case, I was at the site (in Poland) in August and since Polish is not my strong suit, I did all my editing on my laptop and transfered the files to customer's computer via memory stick. Everything worked fine during all that, so emailing the files should not be any different, yes?

  • HT3805 Can't open Aperture, says I need to check file permissions. What can I do?

    I was trying to add pictures to my Aperture library from another Aperture library in another account on the mac. When I dragged the file from the shared foder to Aperture it said it was merging libraries. I accidentally closed aperture while I was waiting. Now it will not allow me to open Aperture. The message says Aperture cannot access the library. To use the library, make sure its file permissions are set correctly. What can I do?

    Hold down the option and commnad key's while starting Aperture this will open the library first aid window. Select Repair Permissions and you should be ok.
    Post back if that doesn't fix your problem.
