Keeping Your Software Up to Date You can connect to the Internet and automatically download and install the latest free software versions, drivers, and other enhancements from Apple. When you are connected to the Internet, Software Update checks Apple's servers to see if any updates are available for your computer. You can set your Mac mini to check the Apple server periodically and download and install updated software. To check for updated software: 1 Choose Apple () > Software Update. The Software Update window opens. If new software is available, it appears in a list. 2 Click the checkbox to select the items you want to install, then click Install. Type an administrator name and password (the name and password you used when you first set up your computer). When the updates are complete, Software Update checks for updates again. It does this because some updates require that you have installed previous updates. For more information, search for "Software Update" in Mac Help (see page 24).

Keeping Your Software Up to Date
You can connect to the Internet and automatically download and install the latest free
software versions, drivers, and other enhancements from Apple.
When you are connected to the Internet, Software Update checks Apple’s servers to see
if any updates are available for your computer. You can set your Mac mini to check the
Apple server periodically and download and install updated software.
To check for updated software:
1
Choose Apple (
) > Software Update. The Software Update window opens. If new
software is available, it appears in a list.
2
Click the checkbox to select the items you want to install, then click Install. Type an
administrator name and password (the name and password you used when you first
set up your computer).
When the updates are complete, Software Update checks for updates again. It does
this because some updates require that you have installed previous updates. For more
information, search for “Software Update” in Mac Help (see page 24).
