Can't update from 10.8.1 to 10.8.2

We are upgrading our Macs to Mac Minis in our office. I have currently set up at lease 6 of them and upgraded from 10.8.1 to 10.8.2. The mini I am currently working on does not display the 10.8.2 upgrade in the app store. The iPhoto update is displayed but won't install because I do not have 10.8.2. I have downloaded the 10.8.2 combo and the 10.8.2 but it won't load. the message is "the volume doesn't meet the requirements for this update". This is the same machine as the others I have just updated. They are all brand new. Please help!

Apple removed the update from 10.8.1 to 10.8.2 today!

The combo updates are for the earlyer macs, but the 2012er versions have a special 10.8.2 build,

i tried to download the special combo update for my mac mini 2012 but the download link

from apple is removed too!

I ended up going to the Genius Bar, skeptical about any chances for success. Nut I was proved wrong. At the GB, a 10.8.2 image was installed on my Mac Mini and it works great. So if you lost your patience of waiting for Apple to issue a fix, go visit your local GB and they'll fix it in 30 min. But make sure you back up your drive as it will be wiped out.

For apple maps problem at least they released a statement and apologized and promised to fix it, now I emailed apple the auto response said its thanks giving so we have to wait cuz people are busy killing and eating Turkey . If we didn't use iPhoto or aperture or other apps that needs update we wouldn't care, only some say rumors that apple is working on it, how long or when is still a mystery
