Leopard software update error

[Mac6272]

is anyone else getting a software update error saying that "swscan.apple.com" cant be found on the server ??

 

[mwdmeyer]

I'm getting the same problem on my fresh install.

I am getting the same error. I got it right after running software update (updating iLife '08 and other Pro Apps). I actually came online to see if anyone else was having the same problem (glad its not just me). My guess is that Apple is messing around with the update server before the big day tomorrow.

I think it is best to wait and see if goes away on its own.

same here, looks like Apple is updating their servers for tomorrow

 

[cogsinister]

Hopefully lots of tweaks in store for us when the servers are back up.......

Oh alrighty i was getting confused for a minute how are you guys liking it?? besides macfuse not working im loving it.

No problems with Tiger. Either the last round of updates broke software update, of different OS versions look to different servers.

Or its just working now

Someone please post when theyre software uodates begin to work.

Maybe we'll see 10.4.11 tomorrow and 10.5.1...

Excellent! So do we have to wait for Steve to flick the switch on the Leopard servers then? Shouldn't send out OSs to people on the other side of the world first then!

 

[Mac6272]

10.5.1 would be great deff get some of these application issues resolved. Someone post once they flick the switch

still down...

Glad I found this thread, was starting to worry.
Can't wait to see what kind of goodies there will be when it comes back up!!

oK, now I am getting nervous. As of 6:30am EST Software Update still isn't working. Anyone running Leopard with a working Software Update? Maybe it is not everyone.

Relax!

Software Update worked perfectly OK a couple of days ago. They must just be doing something. It'll be back.

(the only update in there BTW was a Remote Desktop Client update, hardly earth shattering stuff).

 

[Lougle]

I know everything will be working again. And there is a lot more in Software Update than that... that is if you did a clean install and installed iLife ect.

I did a clean install.

You're right about iLife though, that wasn't on there at the time so there probably will be more for that.

As far as a clean install of the system though, the Remote Client was the only update.

So is Software Update working now? Did it work for you edesignuk today?

No, right now it's dead. Same error everyone else is getting.

You're good. Thats all that was in the update for me. I didn't install iLife yet though, I hate booting from cd for some reason (bundled with iMac).

 

[Mac6272]

Software updates are working fine for me

You can just pop in the CD that came with your mac, navigate to where they store the packages, and install "Bundled Software.mpkg" (Pretty sure that's what it's called). No need to boot from CD.

Does anyone know what might be the problem?
