Why can't I launch software update?

I am confused and don't know what else to do.  I can not get the updates installed.

Here are the steps I followed

-Click the black Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen.

-Click on "about this Mac",

-Click "software updates".

-Select Update

Result: He begins to calculate the time and at the end of a few seconds nothing else happens. This happens when I select an update at a time or all at once.

Things I've tried.

(1) close all programs and restart the Mac.

(2) restart the Mac by pressing the 4 following keys [Option], [order], [P], [R] and wait for the Bell to ring twice.

(3) Ran disk utility and verified: result was "no error".

(4) Ran disk utility and verified permissions: result was "no found permissions."

I would be grateful to any direction.

Have you tried to do it from the app store? Lancement launch of the app store, and then select the Store menu and verify that you see 'View my account ' and make sure that it contains your apple ID. Then click the icon for updates at the top of the screen. Don't you see the update of the system of exploitation that are listed there? If so, click on the button to update and see if it works. If you do not see the update, return to the Store menu and select "logout". Return to the menu, then connect you using your Apple ID. See if that makes a difference. Good luck!

    Hi brownie8,

    ·         What version of the operating system is installed on the computer?

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    ·         (Numbers KB) updates you install?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software .

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot State to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow the link step 7 to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    Method 3: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.

    Previously, McAfee SecurityCenter has been installed on my pc, but it has been replaced by McAfee Total Protectiononce the subscription has expired. [It isunderlining] I remember getting a Norton trial software installed at a given moment, but this has been removed to make room for software McAfee, to ensure that there is no conflict between the programs.

    You should have installed McAfee Total Protection before as your McAfee Security Center subscription expires. If you're lucky, the following may solve your problem:

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    1B. download the tool McAfee Consumer Product Removal, save it to your desktop:http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. right click on the file that you saved in # 1 above and select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    4. now run this triple McAfee fix: http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=TS100507

    [Note that you you already downloaded the removal tool in my # 1 step b above.] You will restart three times: after uninstalling McAfee Total Protection; After you run the removal tool; and then the reinstallation of McAfee Total Protection.]

    5. after reinstalling McAfee Total Protection, manually & repeatedly update the app until you get a prompt "no update more".

    6. for good measure an another Windows update reset (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058), restart once again & test.

  • Why can't I launch Acrobat 9.0 Pro in 64-bit Windows 7?

    Earlier today, I was limping Pro 9.0 in windows 7.  Then it stopped working.  Although the document would scan, there is no text on the page when the analysis is complete.

    You must update AA9. I don't know what subversion was necessary to work with x 64 systems. Usually the initial versions have not worked with x 64 systems. I think AA9 works with x 64, but only after the update. The current version of AA9 is 9.5.2. Some have reported problems with x 64 yet after the upgrade, but without the upgrade of systems you can probably forget it.
