You must Update you system software before using this setup
Hi guys, I checked I saw that I am not the only one to have this problem but didn't find any solution.
Everything is up to date, bootcamp 3.01, OSX 10.6.2 and the main partition is journalized.
So what can I do ?
Please help me!
Thanks
Just to update the situation - I found the reason.
For some, unbeknown, reason, journaling was disabled on Macintosh HD. Enabling it resolved the issues.
Many thanks for the help.

"You must update your system software before using this setup assistant"
Hello,
I've installed the new Mac OS X on my MacBook (CoreDuo) and I'm receiving this error when trying to setup boot camp. I had a perfect installation of it on Tiger, and my system is fully up to date with all the latest updates from Apple so I'm a little perplexed as to the solution?

It is on an older macbook that originally has cs4. When I try and open camera raw in cs6, this message appears. Help please!
I found the solution of this problem.
1 Open bridge cs 6
2 Go to Edit - Preferences - File Type Associations
3 Select Canon Camera Raw
4 In the dropdown menu browse for Photoshop CS 6
It appears that the default seeting is explorer settings.
That means in my case the exploroer settings was ACDsee
Please see the screen shot
Hope this helps

When you create a PostScript file you must rely on system fonts and use document fonts
I got this error:
"When you create a PostScript file you must rely on system fonts and use document fonts. Please go to the printer properties, "Adobe PDF Settings" page and turn OFF the option "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts."
This strikes me as bad practice. I only want to use system fonts and document fonts will muck me up.
That being said, I could not easily find a way to fix this with Acrobat Pro XI. I opened Control Panel (Windows 8) and found the printer and mucked around in the various ways to get to change the PDF settings (there are several ways, and some of them present the choices as bold and not just regular). I found two separate switches for "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" and turned both off, BUT that did not work.
Frustrated, I went back to FrameMaker and clicked File > Print Setup and then for the PDF printer, Printer Properties. There I found a THIRD instance of "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" that was set differently than the other two. This was the setting the error message meant. Change this one.
Thanks for the convoluted UI, Adobe. What a pain, but there is the answer for all who follow after....> Windows 7 and Frame 7.2.
This is not a supported configuration and probably does not work, due (I'm guessing) to driver API changes from XP to Win7, which would affect generating PDF and Ps output. This would affect Save-as-PDF and Print-to-Ps+Distill (unless you have a newer version of the full Acrobat product).
As it happens, I'm going to attempt something similar: FM 7.0 on Win7 64 Pro. However, I'm going to install that old FM in "XP Mode".
XP Mode is a 32-bit virtual machine running actual Windows XP inside Win7. It is (now maybe "was") available for Windows 7 Enterprise, Professional and Ultimate (but not Basic, Home or not-so-Premium). When XP went off support life earlier this month, Mr.Bill may have taken down the ability to download XP Mode (or not, since some large enterprises are able to purchase continued support for XP at some great cost). XP Mode never was supported for Win8. There are other VMs for Windows available.
If XP Mode is still available, you also need a CPU that has hardware virtualization, which all recent 64-bit AMD processors do, but which is fused-off in many low end 64-bit Intel processors. AMD processors need a separate unobvious hot-fix patch installed before you do anything else about XP Mode. -
I currently use OS 10.6.8 and Aperture 3, and just got a Nikon D600. It seems the the RAW Compatibility updates (4.01) are for use only with OS 10.7.5 or later, is that right? Do I need to update my whole OS to use this camera? Thank you!
Thanks to Bobthefisherman & Turbostar. Turns out I've got a corrupted disk (which I found out via "verify disk" on Disk Utility First Aid. Previously, I never thought to verify disk -- only to repair permissions -- so I never knew my HD had been corrupted.
Wasn't able to do a clean install of OSX10.6 because my SuperDrive only sporadically will load discs, so I am taking it to the Apple Store to see if they can do a clean install, and depending upon costs, get the Superdrive replaced.
The HD wasn't partioned by the way. And I did have just over 40GB of contiguous space.
Thanks again. -

I prepare a photo in Aperture and send to the printer. It appears to go through but I get the following error "You need to install software to use this printer. To install the software, choose Software Update from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer isn’t available in Software Update, contact the manufacturer of your printer." Even though the printer has worked fine for two years up until today. I re-downloaded the driver from Epson, installed and still the same thing.
I use an Epson 3880. After upgrading to Lion, I had to upgrade/re-install the Epson printer drivers. All work now.
There was a glitch in the installation, but I can't remember right now.
OP: did you get the newest drivers -- for Mountain Lion? did you uninstall the Epson 3880 before re-installing with the newest drivers? have you rebooted? -
Im trying to watch a show but because of this message its not allowing me to do so. Again the error message im receiving is " Your device's clock appears to be incorrect as a result you ,ay experince problems using this application" how do i resolve this issue?
If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then best is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox application and save the disk image file to the desktop
*Firefox 26.0: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application (open the Applications folder in the Finder and drag the Firefox application to the Trash) to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Installing+Firefox+on+Mac
Your personal data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox profile folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data when you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

Hi all,
We are having issues with Adobe Bridge working properly with Photoshop. When trying to access Bridge through Photoshop we receive the following error "Bridge CS6 was not found on this system. To use this command, please reinstall Bridge CS6"
- We have the Master Collection CS6 installed
- Bridge CS6 is working fine as a stand-alone program
- This is installed on Windows 7 x64
- I am unable to find an uninstall location for Bridge CS6, it is not under control panel > Adobe Master Suite
- All adobe products are up-to-date as of this morning.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

It has not worked previously.
Does not make a difference is bridge is open or not.
Yes, we are accessing it through File/browse in bridge.
OK, back to square 1.
Does Bridge work normally? Does it load Bridge CS6 or does CS5 come up? Only one version can run at same time.
If you double click on an image it opens in CS6? -
Cannot update any system software
I currently cannot update any system/apple software in any way.
If I run Software Update from the apple menu/system prefs, it informs me that my software is up to date, even though this is clearly not the case.
If I download the updates manually from Apple's website, they refuse to install. When I get to the Destination selection screen (i.e. "Select a Destination: <list of volumes>"), my startup disk is disabled! In the Installer log it says the following:
=== Starting check on volume /
Requirement: requires "certain file content criteria" PASS for root=/, domain=0
Requirement: requires "certain InstallationCheck criteria" PASS for root=/, domain=0
Requirement: requires "certain VolumeCheck criteria" FAIL for root=/, domain=0
=== Starting check on volume /
Requirement: requires "certain file content criteria" PASS for root=/, domain=0
_volumeAppeared: volumeCheckTool disabled Ti (this is the startup volume's name)
This first happened to me when I tried installing the QT 7.1 and Security Update 2006-003 updates back in May. It's still happening now with iTunes 6.0.5 and QT 7.1.2. The last thing I installed through SU was Security Update 2006-002 back in March.
Any ideas? This really, really *****.

attempting to update operating system on macbook pro with osx10.4.11.
how is this accomplished and what is the cost ? is the worth the expense give the age of unit?Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
