Re: Automatic Updates

In my updates section it tells me that the download for the Mac OS X update is 100 mb. I only have dial up. Is there anyway to download the updates little by little. The other downloads like imovie, itunes,idvd were not this big....

It would really help if I could split it up

The download for the OS X is quite a large one in my 'automatic updates' it is 100mb and I only have a dial-up connection.

Is there anyway to split it up or download in sections. It is the largest download, the others are 20mb and under. I was just wondering.

You could buy panther, or just have it run over night.

Go somewhere that has broadband, download the standalone updater, burn it to CDR, and then install on your system...
