Update to Mac OS X 10.9.5 - Still shows 10.9.4 in 'About This Mac'

I let a Macbook Pro 17" (MacBookPro8,3) update automatically to Mac OS X 10.9.5 during the night while I was away.

It still says '10.9.4' under 'About this Mac', while it also shows the 10.9.5 update being applied in the App Store > Updates. See Screenshot:

Using Terminal, sw_vers -productVersion also shows 10.9.4 as the current version running.

Anyone else have this happen with this update?

Nothing seems to be amiss, but obviously I'd much rather have the update happen. What's the best way to fix this? Running the 10.9.5 Combo update comes to mind, but I'd love to hear others who might be in the same boat, and what the best way to make sure to upgrade is.

thanks!!

I cannot see you screen image, but do you have two installations of OSX on the same drive?

On a rMBP the About This Mac and Terminal versions are in sync.

sw_vers -productVersion

10.9.5

I can not see the picture either.

If you did update in the account that you are in now and don't see it: look in Applications/Utilities/SystemInformation:

click Software on the left and read the version on the right:

it will probably say 10.9.4: it is not installed. Download it again in this same account and install it.

No, I don't have 2 installations on the same drive. Just Mac OS X Mavericks.

It says it's 10.9.4 in the terminal, and in 'About This Mac', so I believe it there, but it also says the 10.9.5 update has been applied in the Software Update 'Updates Installed in the Last 30 Days'. Seems like a bungled up software update issue, maybe my last resort here is to just apply the Combo Update for 10.9.5.

Hmm. Yes, any more guidance on this is much appreciated.
