Set a Software Update Schedule

You can ensure that your Mac and the applications that come with your Mac are up to date with the latest features and fixes by setting a schedule for updating the software. Apple makes OS X updates available from time to time. These updates fix problems, add new features, and resolve security issues. You can reduce computer problems and maximize online safety by setting up your Mac to download and install these updates automatically.

By default, your Mac checks for updates weekly. You can configure Software Update to check for updates daily or only once a month.
