Mail, AppStore, Safari all crash after OSX 10.9.4 upgrade

I recently updated to OSX 10.9.4 and began having problems using native Mail client, AppStore and Safari. All crash upon trying to open.


Crash Dump shows as follows:


Process: Mail [650]

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to go about resolving this?

Any help is much appreciated. I am not much of a troubleshooter on MBP, since I bought it in 2009 "it just works..." (until recently)

Thanks

Eric,


Thank you for your help. I downloaded the 10.9.5 Combo Update.

When I went to install it, the installer crashed.


Got this Info:

Any thoughts on where to go from here?
