Impossible to update the Imac to 10.11.6

My Mac has always been very reliable, but still crashes when trying to update to 10.11.6, that occurs whenever two times during the night because of the automatic updates that I had to disable it gets in the middle of the progress bar and the stalls, the only way to make it work is now going through a time Machine up which has 10 hours each time!

I also tried a manual update that has encountered the same problem so once again, I had to use time machine, I also did a full download reinstall who completed but also did not install properly, please could you someone let me know the best way to work around this problem, thank you very much Barry

Please download and install OS X 10.11.6 Combo of the Apple site updates:

Apple - Support - downloads

https://support.Apple.com/downloads/MacOS

Combo set

It is a more complete installation, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so you have to overwrite all files are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have previously applied. All your data and settings must be kept, but that said, you should always have a backup.

    Hi elizabethg,.

    Photoshop CC 2015 would require minimum Mac OS 10.9, therefor you can maximum download the trial version of Photoshop CC 2014 which is compatible with the version of Mac OS you have.

    Download link: direct download links of Adobe CC 2014: Creative Cloud 2014 Release. ProDesignTools

    We will also recommend you use Photoshop CS6 trial, because if in case you want to buy the trial then its available through the third party dealer as a standalone application.

  • update the iMac mid-2011 or buy a new one.

    Hi guys,.

    I have an iMac 21.5 "mid 2011 with 12 Gb RAM. I was wondering if it was a good idea to override this model (installation of an SSD, etc.) or buying a new iMac.

    I am not very happy with RAM soldered to the logic board of the new models 21.5 ". Load path Apple extra RAM too. Most users may not upgrade RAM or change SSDS by themselves, but, I'm a small part of those who like to modify and update my Mac, I like to do and not be restricted by a marketing strategy.

    However, what do you think?

    Looking at the price of new iMacs, I would setup an SSD and more RAM if your iMac runs correctly. You will save money, and this computer will last you a few years without glitches.

    However, if you feel that your iMac is not powerful enough for the tasks you do, go for a new iMac. As you say, Apple does not allow you to change anything (except installation RAM on iMac 27 inches), so buy the iMac with the amount of RAM and disk that meet your needs.

  • Try to update the iMac G5 DMG 10.5

    I have an old iMac G5 with 10.4.11 on it. He has a bad CD drive and can't seem to even a superdrive Apple CD/DVD, when connected by USB. So I a. My 10.5 installation disk DMG file. First I tried to copy it to a Firewire hard drive, but the iMac won't even see the drive (FW tab in everything it sees Mac nothing), although two other Mac (Intel), he can see very well.   I also put on a USB key, but when I run the update to 10.5, it is said to 'restart to start' and then just restarts in its 10.4 normal on the internal drive. What Miss me - how this DMG to upgrade my iMac 10.4? I also see that the iMac can start on the network; is there a way I can get one of my other Macs to serve the 10.5 update via network to begin out of that? Or, can I do the USB drive (32 GB) a real startup disk and start the iMac that?

    Most of the PowerPC Macs can start up of external hard drives, FireWire (not USB).  Former ports USB2.0 (even if) may not provide enough power for a USB optical drive, if it is powered type current by USB (not its own power supply).  And it would not work for this purpose, because it is USB, no FireWire.  This is why the USB flash drive does not either, at the start of the iMac.

    It may have to this external FireWire drive.  What type of disk external drive FireWIre is?  Is this a record 2.5 inches which is powered by the FireWire port, or a 3.5-inch disk addition which has its own power supply?  The type with its own power supply is better, don't count is not on the port for power.  Is it directly connected to the FireWire port on the iMac?  If you have more than one FireWire cable, have you tried more than one (to rule out a defective cable)?  FireWire 400 (older type) or FireWire 800 (new type)?  Either should work, as long as you have the right cable.  What type of port the iMac FireWire has?

    If you can get it recognized by the Mac, you can use disk utility to 'restore' the .dmg to the FireWire drive file.  The FireWire drive should be cleared to have the Map of Partition Apple partition scheme and format Mac OS extended (journaled), be bootable with a PowerPC Mac.

  • Impossible to update the details of the employee

    Hi friends,

    I developed a page request. The results of the employee are shown in the table and a column of the table that has empid is a command link. By clicking on this link, I am able to go to a page containing the details of the employee. However when I try to update the details of the employee, I get the following error

    I checked the view object. It is editable. No idea where I am going wrong.

    Thank you

    The ViewObject (VO) you use for the query is not based on an EntiryObject (EO). Only your EOs based are able to update the data. You can do two things:

    (1) base you VO on an EO

    (2) use the retail ID to open a form in a different VO, inspired by the EO and modify the data here. An example for this can be found here http://tompeez.wordpress.com/2011/07/31/using-diferent-vos-for-master-detail-navigation/

  • Update the iMac MID 2011 to work in FCPX with 4K

    Hi all

    I think to upgrade my iMac like mine is a MID 2011 but research on the Apple site, I don't think OMG that tilt for £2800!  My current system is an i7 3.4 GHz with 12 GB 1333 MHz RAM and AMD R HD6970M 2048 MB.
    I also installed an SSD as boot drive a few years so he tried there to justify going to the iMAC for 5K.

    Do you think I'll get a decent performance gain in FCPX edition 4K since the new iMAC
    4.0 GHz quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 4.2 GHz
    32GB 1867 MHz DDR3
    2 TB disk Fusion
    AMD Radeon R9 M395X with 4 GB of video memory

    Thank you very much

  • Update the iMac 21.5 mid 2010 "with SSD

    Hi - I am interested in upgrading my iMac 21.5 mid 2010 "with an internal SSD. Have been reading the posts on the subject and I wanted to clarify a few points. As I understand it, there is not a spare drive Bay, so my options are to replace the existing drive, or replace the optical drive.

    My questions are:

    (1) is there a difference in meaning in performance in both options?

    (2) the location of the optical drive is a stable position (physically) to put a SSD?

    (3) if it is placed in the location of the optical drive, I'll be able to boot from the SSD drive?

    (4) I read that if you replace the hard drive, there is also a problem with a heat sensor that fans end up running a full speed, and you must download a software workaround solution, or get a special thermal sensor OWC. This applies also to put it in the optical Bay? Why or why not, and if not, is the drive always properly cooled? Not sure I quite understand that part.

    Thanks for any help,

    David

    I added an SSD for my iMac 2011. It has an extra SATA port, so I could leave the optical drive in place and put the SSD in behind it, while keeping the original HARD disk too.

    I think that 2010 models do not have this port, but the other World Computing would be able to confirm this on their site based on the available kits.

    1. you won't see any difference in performance in both positions. Note, the 2010 iMac uses ports SATA 3 G, so if you use a 6G SSD, it will only run at 3G speeds. Willl you always get a huge performance on the old HDD even gain at this slower speed.

    2. Yes, to use the available kits

    3. Yes the installer once you define which drive you want to boot from in system preferences > startup

    4. I think it's only valid for 2011 models, but still OWC kits will show if you need the adaptor cable. It does not apply in the optical drive. Cooling still works correctly if you use the kits to correct or additional software.

    Edit: just check out OWC, it seems that the thermal cable adapter is required for this model

    Edit 2: If you have never worked on electronics, I strongly suggest that you do not open the iMac yourself. If it is not particularly difficult if you are experienced, it is very easy to break something if you do not have this experience.

  • Impossible to update the BIOS on my Satellite A660

    Hello, guys!
    When I try to update the BIOS on my laptop in version 2.3 (latest version 1.6) I get the message "install UEFI winflash 0.02:

    + The program will be closed! +
    + There is an error occurred, please check below Articles. +
    + The BIOS above 230 version. +
    + More than 20% of battery capacity. +
    + Is attached AC. +

    The conditions of the first and the last are rooms but the second is not because the battery is dead (always 0% charged). Is there another way to update the BIOS?
    Thank you!

    Post edited by: al_3

    No, there is no other update BIOS because victory BIOS update version is available on the Toshiba driver website.

    I guess you need good work and battery charge in order to update the BIOS.

    But why you want to update the BIOS? Is something wrong with the laptop?
    The update of the BIOS is a very serious update and must be done very carefully
    Incorrect procedure may damage the motherboard!

  • Impossible to update the BIOS on Satellite A665

    Hello

    I desperately need help with update my BIOS on Satellite A665 that my battery won't charge and the site said to me updated the BIOS, but it is not letting me update battery is less than 10%.

    Please someone help me because I have no way to use the laptop without power still present.

    Hey Buddy,

    Can you charge the battery when the laptop is turned off? Usually battery LED should show you white and orange color to the loading process if the battery is fully charged. And then start the computer and update the BIOS.

  • Impossible to update the display drivers for Satellite L650

    I have L650 and AMD ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470.
    First of all, I wanted to update my drivers Toshiba program showing that this driver is old. OK, I downloaded, install and then, months later, window pop-up, this driver is always old. I did it again and I noticed that the driver is not updated at all.

    So I went to the ATI site, and there I discovered that the latest drivers for my card there but they will not work with Toshiba. Weird is, I tried anyway, they don't work.
    So I went to Toshiba site and start downloading AMD, each of them display drivers. None of them worked: errors or 'installation complete', but nothing works. I tried other sites with drivers for my model. Resut: Nope, once again.

    Finally, I found the most up-to-date drivers for my Radeon, from Toshiba Web site... from 2011. Is this some kind of joke? Why can't I have the drivers updated just because it is Toshiba? Why Toshiba is not updated their drivers, when the software they gave me with the laptop gives me alerts that my drivers are outdated.

    Hello

    > Why Toshiba is not updated their drivers, when the software they gave me with the laptop gives me alerts that my drivers are outdated.

    Many different laptop models were equipped with the same GPU. That's why you should also search for drivers of graphics cards that have been released for the new laptop models equipped with the same graphic card.

    > Yes, so I went to the ATI site, and there I discovered that the latest drivers for my card there but they will not work with Toshiba. Weird is, I tried anyway, they don't work.

    I read in various forums on graphics cards drivers and update issues.
    It seems that Toshiba provides special and changed graphics cards drivers that have been specially designed for mobile use. These drivers support a kind of protection which is important since s graphic portable units are equipped with large modules of cooling the overheating.

    However, there is a solution to install the page ATI original drivers, but the use of these drivers is at your own risk. You need to download the driver package that contains the dll and ini files.

    Then you should be able to update the driver through Device Manager by using the Advanced installation procedure which allows to point to the folder that contains the mentioned dll and ini files.
