How do I get into software update?

When I used 10.1.5 and I ran software update, it always asked if I wanted to see the x number of items I had disabled. I usually said no, but once in a while I wanted to look it over and see if there was anything worth getting.



Now I have all these disabled items carried over from when I had 10.1, but now if there isn't any software that needs updating, I can't go into the Software Update program to uncheck some of the deleted items. I want to be able to get in and download iPhoto, but I just can't get in. I'll download it from Apple, but it's not as convenient. I suppose I'll have to wait for a security update, or I could try moving iTunes out of the Applications folder.

    Hmm, I just answered my own question. I moved iTunes out of the Applications folder and ran Software Update again, and lo and behold, iTunes came up as something to update, and there was nothing in the list of disabled updates! That's right, all those localized files that I didn't install, and the iPhoto download weren't there anymore.



    Looks like I'll just go to Apple's site.

    Isn't iPhoto part of Jaguar's easy install option, or so?
