Question I was wondering would you please suggest to me: how often should I do a
software update within system presences?
P.S I've set up my software update to manual
Thanks
Answer I do mine weekly -- but anytime you hear of a new update via www.macupdate.com or through e-mail, it might be a good time to run it. One hint, though -- before you run it, run the Disk Utility program (it's inside your Applications > Utilities Folder in OS 10.4) to Verify and, if needed, Repair Permission. Then run Software Update and then, yes, run Verify/Repair Disk Permissions again. It will keep your Mac very happy! -- George
