| 445293 | 2006-04-09 23:22:00 | imac bondi blue 192mb ram 20Gb harddrive 233 processor osX 10.1 righto The problem is this I click on the updates button in the control panel, i enter my password (I am admin level) and it shows me an update (unfrtunately it is the wrong update it requires 10.1.1, and i only have 10.1) I click update and it takes me to the download page, which has a link on it to the correct version for my OS (10.1), i download the correct version and it appears as a dmg file on my desktop, i double click on it and it gets mounted but when i click on the file inside (an installer package think) it tells me I can't install as it needs an admin password The problem is this, there is no where to enter the admin password, i am given no option or anything like that I have had a look at the apple site, but everything seems to state that it is a point and click affair, which it isn't for me, i think this update is the one that changes the way the update mechanism works any help would be greatly appreciated |
