How do you restore "details" to software updates in mavericks

In Mountain Lion, when a notification for available software updates appeared, there was an option to choose "Details" which would allow one to decide which updates were wanted and which were not.  In Mavericks, the "Details" choice seems to have disappeared.  Now the only two choices are to install or "remind me later."  Can "Details" be restored?
I work around this issue by going to the App Store and clicking on "Updates," but that is a real time-consuming pain in the neck.

danakasind,
go back into the Keyboard pane of System Preferences and select its Keyboard tab. Is its “Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys” checkbox checked, or is it unchecked? If it’s checked, then you’d need to press Fn-F4 to have it show the Dashboard, if F4 hasn’t been mapped to anything other function.
Next, select its Shortcuts tab. On the left-hand side, select Launchpad & Dock, and ensure that the Show Launchpad checkbox is unchecked. After that, select Mission Control on the left-hand side. On the right-hand side, check the Show Dashboard checkbox, and click where it says F12; it will reveal itself as an input. Press F4 to replace F12 with F4.
I’m running 10.9.1, and this works on my MacBook Pro.

    As already stated, if you didn't back it up, the data is now gone.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?

    How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?  I did something wrong as now nothing is on my phone but several questions such as language, etc. They keep repeating.  When I turn phone completely off, the same thing happens when I turn it on.  It is very frustrating now to have no phone service or anything at all on my phone.

    It sounds as if the phone is waiting to be activated. Did you update software or something like that on the phone? You can either try to finish the Setup routine, or you can connect the device to iTunes on the computer and then after selecting the iPhone in the device pane, click on the button that says Restore a Backup.

    You could try what

    If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

  • Where or how do you get the 2.0 update?

    I got the latest version of itunes, the latest version of software for ipod touch but I still can't find the "APPS" tab in the preferences setting. How do you get the 2.0 update? I had the same problem with the other update when I first bought this thing. Apple is really ******* me off.

    Ya know i would just wait because they dont HAVE to release it today, tommorow, or in the next year if they want too. Maybe they have a new idea and want to add that so you need to be patient... i know we were all dissapointed when i didnt come out in june but just shut your virtual mouth and wait!
    Take a chill pill and relax...

  • HT1414 How do I download iOS 5 Software update?

    Please how do I download iOS 5 Software update if I'm not ready to update via iTunes?

    I have a job, so I don't hang your every word as soon as you post a reply to a thread in which I've participated. Now I've read your other post correcting the fact that I put 6.0.2 as the latest version of iPhone software I won't refer to the version specifically any more.
    So, is iOS 5 available for download?
    I find you very aggresive in your approach and if it continues, I will more than likely only ask questions on here rather than trying to assist others.
    I have better things to do and I'm just trying to help.
