    You can't update another platform than the one you are running.

    Sure he was. He answered your question with a reply that was spot on. To apply Windows updates, you must be booted into Windows. To apply Mac OS updates, the computer must be booted into OS X.

    No. Neither of you were helpful. My questions was, "How do I perform these *{Apple Software Update for Windows}* updates? Thanks!" Did I get an answer? No.

    This morning on on the Windows side, I got an alert from Windows about an Apple configuration problem, about an _Apple desktop Null Driver_. Obviously, from the Windows side, computability issues can be apparent.

    I asked a simple question in my ignorance. I don't like being responded to with attitude.

    Okay, well then of course you didn't get an answer. Nobody knows what "these updates" you're referring to. if you're not satisfied with the answers provided, then perhaps you should have not asked such a vague question in the first place. Your initial post gave no specifics. We're not mind readers.

    I don't like being responded to with attitude.


    You reap what you sew. No attitude was present until you responded to Hatter.
