I'm currently running 10.6.4 on my 1.5 year old Macbook Pro. I went to update to 10.6.6 (for the App Store), but I'm having trouble.

The Software Update finds 12 items that needed to be installed, including OS X. If I tell it to go ahead and install those items it prompts me to restart the computer so it can finish, but when I click "Restart" it logs me out and brings me directly to the login screen. If I click "Restart" from there, it restarts but without installing the update. If I log back in, the update is not installed. I've even tried waiting at the login screen for a few minutes, but I'm assuming that's not the issue. I've repeated these steps several times.

Any ideas?

Try the combo update straight from the apple site and see if the problem persists.
