Software Updates is not installing anything (Safari, iTunes).
It hangs for hours...
I tried downloading Safari 9.1.3 but after opening the installer after a few seconds it stops and says that the software was not installed.
I recently changed hard drive to an SSD, permissions have been repaired an infinite amount of times...
I have been able to install other software.
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
Try resetting the App Store and Clearing Cookies. You can also try in the Safe Mode.
I tried all that you suggested, but I still cannot install the downloaded Safari 9.1.3 (installer crashes) or iTunes 12.5.1 (software update hangs forever at "calculating" install time).
I was able to update to Sierra after reinstalling the system... However, Siri did not work at all and I had lost tens of thousands of emails, plus all my signatures and rules, so I went back UP to Mavericks... ;-)
Thanks
Try installing in another admin account. If that doesn't work, reboot normally.
