Update Error 12 bug for years. I can't remember when Chrome updated itself correctly on my Mac, http://tech.kateva.org/2015/03/fixing-google-chrome-mac-update-error.html but I didn't really dig into the bug. I figured Google would fix it sooner or later, in the meantime I've been manually downloading Chrome installers every few months (not http://www.mac-forums.com/showthread.php?t=317980 a great idea obviously).Today I gave up on Google and started work on the bug. The key to finding the answer was logging into my admin account, starting Console, chrome update clearing the log, then watching what showed up as I started Chrome and opened the About screen while Chrome tried to update and generated the usual error: 12 message.

Then you get something like this:Yeah, 2014. A bit better.Then, still from my Admin Account, I ran Chrome and stepped through several versions of the Chrome About screen:thenDo the relaunch, then ..Setup up Automatic Updates for All Users (I'll be impressed if this actually works!):First automatic update in my memory.I suspect this problem arose from years of several intersecting bugs -- some belong to Apple's famously buggy permissions infrastructure, some related to how Google interacts with people who run OS X as non-admin users, some related to how Google Chrome/Updater manages install errors, some related to how Google mangled OS X Library structures over the years.Once I'd fixed the problem I read Google's tech support note more carefully (with Mavericks/Mountain Lion their sudo instructions only work if you run as admin, they kind of left that out). This is the relevant bit:Run the following command. Be careful to enter the command exactly as written:~/Library/Google/GoogleSoftwareUpdate/GoogleSoftwareUpdate.bundle/Contents/Resou

You might want to run AdWare Medic first to ensure you don't have other issues because Error 12 is a connection to server failure. This is what was written: "Chrome with "Update server not available error :12 " can be fixed by installing a dmg release by google chrome team, its called google updater, a 4 KB installer from http://dl.google.com/dl/mac/install/...wareupdate.dmg After installation restart browser and update it This is the only stable Fix and it works" So I would perform a
