What's the difference between "update" and "up to date"?

Something is said to be "up to date" after you "update" it.  There wasn't that simple?

Cry. Stamp your feet. Swear a lot.\n\nThen take the upgrade back and buy the full version.

I came to this Q&A late, so you probably have already\ndone the upgrade, but I'll make a couple of comments\nanyway.\n\nFirst, if you have multiple machines supporting an app\nserver, I presume that they're all running both the same\nrelease of the OS as well as the same patches (in order\nto get consistent results regardless of which machine\nprovides the service).  Given that assumption (ie. system\nshared objects are the same), I can't see any point to\nthe suggestion that you must use statically compiled\nbinaries.\n\nI think the other advice is really to the point, because\nit is those little details (like updating environments,\ndocumentation, the "pkgadd" database, or other small\npieces of state information) that could cause you\nheadaches later on. If the upgrade really is strictly\nlimited to modifying one directory, then sure, you can do\nit as you suggest.\n\nI'm curious, though, about your comment about\n"downtime".  If your machines supporting the app server\nare replicated, then it doesn't seem like there would be\n*any* downtime if you took them offline (one at a time)\nfor upgrades.  Isn't that part of the designed-in beauty of\nusing multiple machines?

Go to add-remove programs in control panel, you may have to click on the box at the top right that says show all updates.

I used the link below and got a server error. Said it was doing a current update. Hope it works for you later.

Use your add / remove programs in control panel, just be sure that "Show Updates" is checked up at the top.

This may be because the Automatic Update feature is turned on. To disable Automatic Updates feature, \nRight click "My Computer", click "Properties", go to "Automatic Updates" tab, and select, "Turn off automatic updating" and click "OK". It's done.

No, I wait a long, long time to upgrade software.  There's no point unless it contains functionality that you don't have (or you need it for clients) and it is a bad idea in the first year or 2 of any major new software release, because of the possibility of bugs.

I believe 10 is the latest version.\n\nThese sites may help.

Better stability. When a new version of an OS comes out, there are so many bugs that a large company can't afford to have take down their server, so they stick with what works.

I assume that the update is a manual process because the act of updating the revnum field would be considered a change to the document in itself.  I.e. if you opened your document, and made no change at all except for updating REVNUM, the program would consider that to be a change and, upon exiting, would ask if you want to save the document.\n\nAside from setting up a macro to refresh the revnum field on opening, you could try hitting F9 on your keyboard.  It beats having to manually refresh using the mouse.

No reason to trash them, just to download the latest.  I would reccommend keeping them all, as who knows how tightly the upgrade is tied to your old version.\n\nIf your add remove programs will let you remove the 1.4.2 stuff, and leave 5.0 intact, then I would say that is your best bet to go.\n\nRemoving them all, just to install a new version really won't save you that much space in the long run, and for the hassles involved with all of that work, I say leave it.  It's not hurting any thing.

The latest version is 2, there is no way you can update no.1 .you have to buy no.2 or if you own number 2 and it is version 1.1.1.0 then go to their website and download an update

Updates are important , basically (and most importantly)they are needed to improve security features already installed on your comp."Critical Updates" are obviously more important to install than service packs so try and select them first if theres a huge list to update. They may have failed to install because of server overload, maybe try updating at a differant time.If using Internet Explorer, click tools tab/ update. Goodluck !!
