Hi All
Just upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard using the Mac Box Set. Software Update is not working properly. It will open, look for needed updates, find half a dozen. When I click 'continue' it pops up the license agreement for the MacOS X Update Combined. I agree to that and it asks for my admin password to install software... then just stops. No progress bars, no indication that anything is happening. I've left it that way for hours and nothing changes.
If I close Software Update and try again it does the exact same sequence.
I've read past posts here on this topic and deleted the com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist file, without success.
Any help would be great.
As a side note, the first time I did the install I didn't customize it and add Rosetta, which I need. Then, when it did try to install Rosetta, it would say that an update was already in progress (the broken one from Software Update) and wouldn't install Rosetta. That paralysed a lot of apps I needed, so I installed again with Rosetta included. The Software Update was identical for both installs.
