Yosemite updates both available and complete at the same time

I can open the app store and see the pending updates and click on them but it says "Installed" even when they're not. Furthermore, some actually are installed (like 10.10.1) and others are not (like Safari 8.0.2). After clicking on an update it says installed in the history below but also still stays in the available list regardless of which actual status is true (hedging their bets?). I went through the old usual suspect places looking for package receipts but other than in my local App Store folder in Application Support there don't seem to be current receipts, or at least moving them has no effect (the history file has an effect on AppStore.app and removes the history but the problem remains and it gets remade and updated when I try an install again. This is now happening for all new Apple installs.
I have tried looking for receipts and tried reinstalling Yosemite to no avail.
It would be nice if I could clear the completed updates and actually install the ones that aren't. But I'd be perfectly happy to reset it so that it just tries to update anything.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

Back up all data. Quit the App Store application if it’s running. Test after each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Updates
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move the contents of the selected folder to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 2
Do as in Step 1 with this line:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
Restart the computer. If there's no change, quit the App Store and restore the file you moved from your backup, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Otherwise, recreate your settings in the Software Update preference pane.
Step 3
Hold down the option key and select
          Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Move the following items from the Library folder to the Trash (some may not exist):
          Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
          Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
          Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.*.plist
          Saved Application State/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.savedState
Here, * stands for a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes.
Step 4
Restart the computer in safe mode. Certain caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.
Safe mode is much slower to start up than normal. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
When the login screen appears, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.

Can I setup my P1606dn to eprint both Mac and PC at the same time?

Can I setup my P1606dn to eprint both Mac and PC at the same time?

Hi Poindexter65,
There is no setup involved to ePrint from a computer. So, the answer is yes. All you need to do in order to ePrint, is send an email (attaching whatever you wish to print) to the printer's email address.
Here is a link with more information about ePrint and specifications for attachment types, file sizes, etc.: https://h30495.www3.hp.com/help#eprint

Use one external harddrive on both pc and mac at the same time

i bought an iomega external harddrive today
can i use it on both mac and pc at the same times?
for ex:
when i plug in both computer
i could able to read and write on the hdd on both computer
since i format it into 4 partitions (2 journal and 2 doc)
so i wish i can use them separately in 2 computers

Hi Jerry_L and welocme to Discussions,
using such USB or Firewire connected external harddrives with two computers at the same time is usually not recommended by the manufacturer.
Doing so might lead to data-loss and the like.
Check with the manual of that harddisk to verify.
Using it with one computer at a time with your partitioning should be doable.

Access to a server by both afp and smb at the same time

I'm sure that there's an answer to this, but it's not obvious to me. I have a series of macbooks and various linux servers that I use for file storage. Some of the older linux boxes share via smb, but I'd like to move to afp, primarily as I think that it ought to be easier to administer.
Before a do a migration, how do I mount remote shared filespace on the same server with different protocols? Finder seems happy to authenticate as either AFP or SMB user to a specific machine, but not both at the same time - I only get one server in the left hand pane of finder.
Is it possible to get dual access to work? Do I just use different IP addresses for the server?
cheers

Ok great, thanks v much

Delete photos in both iPhoto and Finder at the same time??

Is there any way I can delete photos in iPhoto AND at the same time delete them permanently in the finder?
We all take too many pictures with out digital cameras and we can't say for sure which once are good with just looking at the camera... so we have to import ALL of them to iPhoto. When we do that, they also get saved in the Finder. When you delete the bad photos in iPhoto you still sit on the bad photos in Finder...
Does anyone know an easy way to delete BOTH at the same time?
Thank you

I'm not sure I understand your set up:
And I wanted to let you know that under Preferences the box "copy items to the iPhoto Library" is checked.
So, all your pics are copied into the iPhoto Library. BUT you also have copies in the Pictures Folder. Why do you have two copies? They don't count as a back up because they aren't on a different volume, all they are doing is wasting disk space.
If you let iPhoto manage the files then you have no need to access them in the Finder. With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Unix Style Package File. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
I'm not sure I understand your problem.

Does Apple TV output audio via both HDMI and Toslink at the same time?

I would like to know if Apple TV outputs audio via both the HDMI and Toslink ports AT THE SAME TIME...
Ideally, I want to use it in my main zone connected to my TV via HDMI and convert the Toslink signal to analog to be exported to Zone 2 on my receivers. (My receiver - as do most - can only direct analog sources to Zones 2, 3, and 4)

Hey Bob,
I have this same issue. I was wondering what model of toslink to analog adapter you went with and how well it works?
Thanks!

Sound coming from both speakers and headphones at the same time in probook 4440s

I have a Probook 4440s with windows 8 pro(64 bit) with IDT high definition codec installed. Yesterday when i was playing some songs i noticed that the sound was coming from both headphones and speakers even when my headphones are plugeed in and my lappy was having no such problems a few hours earliers while i was watching a movie. Please help..

It may be because you have both the internal speakers and headphones enabled at the sametime on your laptop. This might just happen automatically when you plug your headphones in. You need to manage your audio devices on your laptop.
Go to Control Panel> Hardware and Sounds> Manage Audio Devices> Playback Tab (which should already be selected)
In the playback tab there should be a list of all the audio devices you are using on your computer. Right click on the one you don't want to use and click disable. This should stop the sound coming from that audio device.
Remember: You will need to enable that audio device if you want to listen to sound through it again. Your internal speakers won't work once you enable them again. This might also be the case with your headphones. You may also have to do this every time your plug in a device or once you restart your computer.
Another note: Sometimes disabled devices will not show up on the audio device list so once you disable a device it will dissappear. This is an easy fix too. Just right click on an audio device and make sure show disabled devices and show disconnected devices is checked.
I hope this helps.
(I was using a computer with Windows XP to explain the instructions but it should be similar with your Windows Operating System. You may however have to play around a little on your computer because it may be slightly different)

On my wireless printer can i use both usb and wireless at the same time

i tried to print from coupons,com but it will not i have used coupons.com before with my other printer and weorked fine i have coupons.com looking into it
just wondering if anyone else out there have the same problem

Hi,
Same physical printer but when connecting to SAME computer using both USB and wireless it becomes two (logical) printers. Probably your default prnter is the wireless one, you have to select the right printer before print .

Sound from both Speakers and headphones at the same time

I have a Pavilion Sleekbook 15-b003ee
recently i have a very annoying problem anytime i plug in a headphone on the sound comes from both the laptop speakers and the headphones
I tried the following
1- Changed the driver tried both versions on the HP support
2- changed the headphones tried 3 of them and the same problem
3- tried the Microsoft HD Audio driver (no sound could comeout from the headphones)
4- tried disabling the communication device from the control panel while the speakers is on and vise versa
5- A system restore
still the same problem and i think it maybe an malfunction from the hardware or the headphones jack port on the laptop but how does the sound still come out from the headphones ?
I thought of buying a USB headphones but the laptop is no more than 3 months old so i think i still on warranty and such if it is a hardware problem , I am currently in Egypt bought the laptop from Egypt also

Hello RamiAbbas,
Take a look at this document, which provides troubleshooting steps that I hope, help resolve your issue. You are also in warranty, and are welcome to call and speak to an HP rep to help as well.
Since you are in Greece, look here for the number you need to call for tech support.

App on both iPhone and iPad at the same time?

I tried Google, some FAQs and looking through threads here, but didn't find an answer.
(If I missed it could you please link me to it?)
If I buy an app will I be allowed to sync it both to my phone and pad or do I have to choose which one I want to use it on?

If I buy an app will I be allowed to sync it both to my phone and pad
Yes, unless either device is listed as incompatible in the application's description.

My SB Audigy 2 card can't use headset and musicamplifier at the same time

Hi, i just bought a SB Audigy 2 [D400] and i have downloaded drivers and programs. I run Windows XP SP2.
The soundcard works fine but it is very very annoying that i physically have to change the jack in the green=line out jack from headset to musicamplifier when i want to use my musicamplifier and change back the jack in the green=line out from musicamplifier to headset when i just want to use the headset/headphones .
In the shop they told my that i can connect both amplifier and headset at the same time and then with creative software control whether there is sound in the headset or in the amplifier. But i can't simple get it work.
I tried to use the green to the amplifier and the headset/speakers in the black (line out 2) and then with creative speaker settings softeware choose headphones but still the ampliefier receive the sound and no sound in the headphones. Why? In fact no matter what configuration i try the headphones doesn't work.
But if i change the jacks so headset is in the green line out then only headset is working and the amplifier doesn't work no matter i put it in sort=line out 2 jack or orange=line out 3 jack.
Can somebody here tell me if it is possible or not to connect both headset and external amplifier and control by software which to play? and how?
please help, thx.
Michael

If you can have an ASIO compatible music playing system, then it might be possible to have system like you wish when using Creative Audigy 2 card. Since ASIO bypasses Windows Audio System, you can use both 'drivers' (ASIO - WDM/MME/DS) side by side.
Say you want to play a game (using headset /w mic) and someone other like to listen music at the same time. With ASIO capable system you can output your music for example to "center L/R (stereo) channels" and same time output sounds from other source (using MME/DS/WDM drivers) to normal output channel (Front L/R). Only thing is, you need to set your speakersystem to 4 or 6 (depending which other channel you're using) (and for better 'balance' to adjust "angle" on THX console. You get the THX console by installing Audigy 2 Zs software).
Try for example http://img332.imageshack.us/img332/463/djs9mo.jpg[/img] width="406" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" >
Another option:
Say you want to play music through external amplifier and play game online with your headset + microphone (eg. others but you listen the music, you play games)
--> try free http://img332.imageshack.us/img332/4589/tbp7rz.jpg[/img] width="406" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" >
If you use ASIO on BeatPort Player you can select L/R individually from the list(s). Same rules as described earlier.
= You can play from 2 different sources simultaoneusly (ASIO + WDM/MME/DS) to two different outputs without disturbance. The other (WDM/MME/DS) source is set 'automatically' output to (Audigy) "green" port, and the other (ASIO) to "black" or "orange" port (as set).

Can WRT54G use WPA and WEP at the same time?

I used to have a smc 802.11b wireless router and a dlink 802.11b wireless print server.
In order to have WPA and a firewall, I replaced the wireless router with a linksys WRT54G.
Then I realize the dlink print server, even though it has the "g" keyword in the model name, does not do WPA (DP-G321).
Do I have to buy a 802.11g wireless print server? Or is there another solution?
I don't supposed the linksys router can do both WPA and WEP at the same time?
Connecting the print server to the router with a cable is not feasible. They are on different floors.

both of your devices are has a wireless b technology settings, just set a wep encryption on your network rather than wpa because some wireless b devices don;t work with wpa. with regards to your query if wep and wpa can be used at the same time, the answer is no.

Using LIKE and IN at the same time

Is it possible to use both LIKE and IN at the same time such as:
select first_name from emp where user_id LIKE IN('1%','2%')
Thanks in advance
--Joshua

Or consider the IN - parameters as a string. Then you can do the following:
SQL> SELECT ename
FROM emp
WHERE EXISTS (
          SELECT NULL
            FROM (SELECT RTRIM (SUBSTR (nums,
                                        INSTR (nums, ',', 1, iter.pos) + 1,
                                          INSTR (nums, ',', 1, iter.pos + 1)
                                        - INSTR (nums, ',', 1, iter.pos)
                               ) nums
                    FROM (SELECT ',' || 'SCO,BLA,CLA' || ',' nums

How to record midi and audio at the same time?

Hello,
I have a Roland sh-201 synth and Logic 9. When I use patches from the sh-201, it will record it via audio. What if I wanted to record the audio but also have the midi information as well? How would I be able to accomplish this? My synth is connected via USB which carries both midi and audio. Sorry for my poor english, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

Hi
Logic will record both audio and MIDI at the same time, but you *MUST* have the Software Instrument/MIDI track selected in the Arrange Track List.
The audio track must be 'Record Ready':
HTH
CCT

Yosemite updates both available and complete at the same time
