I have installed os x update 10.10.1 but it does not show and I cannot update to 10.10.2

I'm running a 5-year old macbook (2009 white) running Yosemite.  I had to install update 10.10.1 as a stand alone because the app store shows it as an available update but will not "install it" (the app store will start to "download" it but the download always stops after 1-3 seconds.....fast forward to today when tried to update to 10.10.2 and the app store will not install it....I click on the download button and it starts to download then stops after 1-3 seconds.  I again downloaded the 10.10.1 stand alone update and installed it using the .dmg file.  I then downloaded the 10.10.2 update as a stand alone and when I tried to install it, I could not because the installation program said that I didn't have 10.10.1 installed......I'm at witts end.  I've tried every solution I can find but nothing has worked and my computer has been acting this way since at least November.  Any advice out there?
Thanks!

    I connect my macbook pro to an Epson wireless projector. The macbook can see the projector wirelessly and the image on the macbook is displayed on the projector. However on system ref., the arrangement tab does not show and thus cannot have multiple view.
    I am trying to project Pro Presenter on the Epson projector such that I have the detail screen on the macbook and only the screen I want people to see on the projector display. This has not been possible because the arrangement tab on the Display section of the System Preference is not showing. If i tried to search for the arangement, it comes back with the message that there is not other source detected, hence the arrangement tab is not showing.
    I have also tried to connect the Epson directly to the Macbook but it still the same result, so its not because it is a wireless connection. Can someone advise me jhow to go around this problem. I have used windows before and it is very easy to extend ptojection on windows, but this system seems to be frustrating to me.

    Hi Marcel1no,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! 
    I understand that it can be frustrating when an application downloaded from the App Store is not behaving as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend using the attached article for information on troubleshooting apps downloaded from the App Store.

    Hi  - I recently purchased a new iMac. I have a registered cs5 design premium package which is an upgrade - I have no disc for cs4 but have the qualifying serial number for it. I have installed cs5 via download onto my iMac but it is not accepting the serial number. Can anybody help. Does anybody else think that Adobe will loose a lot of customers by not providing any chat or call support for cs5 users??

    You can support serial number and activation support.

  • I have installed Adobe Flash but firefox does not show as plugin

    I have downloaded the most recent versions of Firefox (30.0) and Adobe Flash Player. The Adobe website tells me my flash player is installed and current but Firefox does not show it as a plug in and a site that requires flash player (google finance) to view charts does not work. The place for the chart remains blank after telling me it has loaded.
    Any thoughts?

    When a page is using a plugin, usually an icon similar to a piece of Lego appears in the address bar. You can click the logo to check that Flash is allowed to run on the page, or approve it to run if it isn't.
    I randomly picked a stock and enlarged the chart and got the following URL. Any luck with this one: http://www.google.com/finance?chdnp=1&chdd=1&chds=1&chdv=1&chvs=maximized&chdeh=0&chfdeh=0&chdet=1405540800000&chddm=1173&chls=IntervalBasedLine&q=NASDAQ%3AAAPL&ntsp=0&fct=big&ei=YJzGU_iiEZSziALE4oCYCg
    Does it matter whether you view it in a regular tab or in a private window? To view in a private window, right-click the link > Open Link in New Private Window.

  • I have installed latest itunes software on my pc but it is not opening

    i have installed latest itunes software on my pc but it is not opening
    HELP

    where are my audiobooks wrote:
    I have now opened an itunes account on my PC.
    What is meant by this?  Was iTunes simply installed and then signed in with the existing Apple ID or was a new Apple ID created?
    If the former, simply transfer purchases from the device by selecting File > Transfer Purchases with the device connected.  Or re-download them from iTunes as described in the article from which the question was posted.
    If a new Apple ID was created, sign out of it and stop using it.  Sign in with the same Apple ID that the content was purchased with.

  • I am installing snow leopard on a new drive unformatted but it does not show the disk to install it on.? do i need to format first with one partition?

    I have installed a new drive on my mac book and more ram but the snow leopard install asks which to install the system on but then does not show the drive.
    do I have to partition it and name it first. -- if so just one partition?

    Do this:
    Drive Preparation
    1.  Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Complete the OS X installation.

  • I have an iphone 4 with the latest updates, but icloud does not show store option. My pics and music are not on the cloud, how do I upload them from my phone to the cloud? I just paid $20 thinking i needed more storage, but that did nothing. help

    I have an Iphone 4 with OS 5.1.1 and it does not show store or music under my icloud tab in the phone. Also, my music and photos don't show on my icloud?
    My contacts show and find my iphone....on the icloud. I just paid $20 thinking more storage would help, but it didn't. How can i cancel that and get a refund?
    Where are is my music on the cloud? How do I upload my music to it? If I lose my phone, it looks like there is no where to go to retrieve my music.
    And itunes won't let me sync my music to my computer. It is all music that I've purchased on itunes.
    Thanks!

    You need to subscribe to iTunes Match to store your music on iCloud:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/
    To transfer iTunes Store purchases made on your phone to your computer, connect your phone then choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu in iTunes.
