[QUOTE="Tarek, post: 1656567, member: 68040"] Thanks for your reply, Lisa. Yes, I was actually following an article on Apple's website since I do not have experience with such things. The versions on my Mac are older than the ones I tried to install, but for some reason they are NOT being installed. Could it possibly have to do with my laptop running Yosemite whereas it came with Lion as default? I see that the updates were made in 2012 which is when Lion was still the latest OS. The reason I am trying to do all of this is that so I can run the Apple Hardware Test since I feel like there is something wrong with my laptop. It has become sluggish and slow even though I don't have a lot of data on it and I usually restart it every day or two in order to clear cache and all of that; I always thought running a hardware test was a good idea, since on my older '08 Mac it revealed that my model has a Graphics Card problem which Apple replaced for free since it was a factory problem.
