Why am I getting the same update notification almost daily? The same updates have already been installed at least twice since 8/14/15.

Why am I getting the same update notification almost daily? The same updates have already been installed at least twice since 8/14/15. The App Store icon shows the red circled "1" indicating an update is available, the same update over and over again. The list showing "Updates installed in the last 30 days" clearly shows the same update(s) have been installed twice on the 14th and twice on the 16th. Why is this happening and how do I get rid of this repeating notification?

Some users are experiencing that issue. What updates are causing the issue?

If one of them is OS X 10.10.5, just install it through the Combo installer -> OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 Combo Update The solution for other updates is the same: look for the installer in the Apple website and install it.

You can download OS X 10.10.5 from the link in my first reply. You can also download iTunes 12.2.2 from the Apple site -> http://www.apple.com/itunes/download
