Got a new pro last week, and ran system update, nothing came up, manually downloaded the updates, and ran them, and it said my computer does not need this update.

This happening to anyone else??

Yes. Go try your System Update feature. They will come up one at a time, and after you install the first one, and go through all the steps, go to System update again, and do the second one... Read the instructions so when the fans go CRAZY in the second one, you don't get scared that soemthing's wrong ;)
 
For me..I did the update yesterday..A window pops up after I download it from the software update and it requires your MB to shut down *so I click on the "shut down"* in that pop up page. Then I hold down the power button and it updates my computer..w/ the grey screen and a progress bar that updates the MB...Hope that helps! :)

I know all that. You misunderstand what happened. The macbook never got the point where it shut down. It was stuck in the "shut down" procedure. I never even got the the gray screen etc. :)

Anyway I just held down the power button and it seemed to be working. The computer shut down and when I pressed the power again (as I knew I would do) it did BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP then proceeded to update with the gray screen.

It's all done now, it worked.

Perhaps Apple has already updated your macbook pro?
