    I've been having an issue for awhile where I can't update to 10.9.3. It shows as an available update in the App Store but when I go to install it, it will restart my computer but no installation will occur. It was already downloaded, but it simply won't install. Any ideas on how to fix this? I've tried fixing permissions but that hasn't made a difference. I hope I don't have to reinstall the entire OS!

    Try downloading the combo update here and install it that way.

    Oh good. :) Often when the installer gets hung up that combo can override things and fix it.
