[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1623935, member: 175845"] If it's anything like [I][B]Mac Informer[/B][/I], and especially if you not right up to date with the latest OS X, I wouldn't bother. I just recently tried the [I][B]Mac Informer[/B][/I], and nearly every app that I have that it suggests there's an update for, all that I checked on were for Yosemite OS X 10.10.x - OK for some maybe, but one detail they didn't figure out - I'm running Mavericks OS X 10.9.5 and they aren't compatible!! And most of those "informers" work the same way AFAIK. So, you've been warned!! :D Edit: PS: I should note that Apple's own Software Update can do the same thing I discovered yesterday, if one switches between Purchases and Updates and one has clicked the "Show Incompatible App Updates", that also need OS X 10.10 and the window doesn't always refresh properly to not list the [I]Incompatible[/I] apps.
