[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1655383"] But updating an application, which I presume was the "other successful updates" is not as intrusive as updating the operating system. Which is why a drive can appear to be just fine until along comes an update to the OS and you get an error about it. One thing you can try, if you want, is to completely reinstall Yosemite, reformatting and installing from scratch. Then restore from your backup. IF there are drive problems, that will definitely disclose them as it tries to format, but if the problem is fixable, that may repair it and get you back into business. [/QUOTE]
