Mac OS X software update notifications for non-admin users As you might heard before, you should not do your normal work with an account that has administrative rights, no matter under which operating system. Although the vendors don’t make it very easy sometimes. Compared to MS Windows you are quite well off with Mac OS X, but also here you will find some caveats. For example, the automatic notification about available software updates only works, if you are logged in as an administrator. In a multi-user environment this makes sense, since you don’t want to confuse ordinary users with such notifications. However, you cannot switch it on for a non-admin account that is used by the owner/admin of the machine, even if you want it.UpdateCheck is a free AppleScript embedded into a plist-file for the launchd. UpdateCheck will automatically check for available software updates once per day, and if there are any, it will display them in a Growl notification or – if Growl is not installed – in an ordinary dialog window.Installation: Copy the plist file to /Library/LaunchAgents in your Home folder. If the LaunchAgents folder does not exist, create it. Then re-login or enter the following command in the Terminal:launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/de.anderson.sven.updateCheck.plist
