- 20" alum iMac 2.4 3 gigs ram
In software update I downloaded the 300+MB security update and when it was finished it wouldn't install. The following info:
"Installation had Errors"
"The following install step failed: run preinstall script for Mac OS XUPD 1.0.5.6. Contact software mfg. for assistance".
I then downloaded the update from Version Tracker and the same message I received that the install failed. I have version 1.0.5.5. It's a 20" alum iMac and I haven't had a problem with other security updates prior to this. Any sane way to correct this before I call Apple support? This is my first Mac so if there is a solution make me simple for me. I verified and repair disk permissions. Thanks for a reply.
