before turning to the CNET apple support forums i thought i would get some "local" advice from you guys.
im trying to update my macbook.
currently running: Mac OS X Version 10.5.4
so i clicked the little apple logo in the top left and went to software update and it scanned for new update "it usually works perfect for me" so i downloaded a bunch of updates for itunes and the usual crap etc.
the final update is "Mac OS X update combined" version "10.5.6" - note the version is 2 ahead of my current version.
so i went to "install 1 item" entered my password, hit "agree" a few times and then an error popped up
"THE UPDATE "MAC OSX UPDATE COMBINED" CAN'T BE SAVED.
A NEWWORKING ERROR HAS OCCURRED: CANNOT OPEN FILE (-3001). MAKE SURE YOU CAN CONNECT TO THE INTERNET, THEN TRY AGAIN."
i can connect to the internet perfect (if i couldn't i wouldn't be posting this message - lol) and the other updates installed without a problem.
i tried rebooting several times to have no success. then i tried downloading update 10.5.5 (note this version - 1 above my current version) directly from the apple site. 700 mb's later and it refused to install because it said it was the wrong version.
ARGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I WAS PRAISING APPLE AND ACCEPTED STEVES NON APPEARANCE WHEN I WATCHED MACWORLD 09 ON THE INTERNET EARLIER TODAY. NOW THIS SHIT! ALL I WANT TO DO IS UPDATE!!! WHY APPLE WHY!
edit: im going to post this into "equipment" incase no mackies come in here - you never know!
