    I'm slightly concerned about how long it's been taking for my MacBook Pro to update iMovie. I'm running OS X 10.9. Here's a screenshot I took when I tried to restart my computer.

    If this is routine and something I shouldn't worry about, hearing it from here would be a relief. Thanks!

    How long has it taken and what kind of storage media have you got (HDD vs SSD)?

    I don't know where you are and what time that equates to me, but if it's still running then there's something definitely wrong. Personally, I'd probably force quit it, though I don't know if that's the safest option.
