   • Install all pending updates available in the Managed Software Center.
   • Plug in your computer to a power source.
   • Connect your computer to a wired internet network (recommended).
   • Make sure your hard drive has 10GB of free space available.

3. Click Managed Software Center.

Note: Verify that you have opened the Managed Software Center and not the App Store.

4. Click Software and select the desired OS X version.
5. Click Updates and select Update All. You will be prompted to log out to begin installation.
6. Your computer will restart after several minutes. Enter your password, if prompted, to continue installation.

   Notes:
