how did you get the full installer?

Let me clarify what I meant by "Manual update."  All I did was to search the 
mac app store manually from the toolbar for El Capitan, find it in the search results, 
and then manually click on install rather than letting Software Update find it for me.

Nevertheless, it's about 5 or 6 gigs, give or take.

   Like I said, it could have been a few different things or could have simply 
required waiting a bit to try to check for updates. The important thing is you 
are up and running with 10.11.2.


     As for the manual download, you can get any software from the Apple.com 
website from the support page. Just do a search for the manual updater for El 
Capitan.

John,

I definitely only have one Apple ID, and it was already signed in.  that said 
however, I did sign out and back in.  I don't recall if I rebooted or not, 
though with my level of tech skill, it wouldn't surprise me if I did.

Chris.

   I’m assuming you had already gotten up and running with 10.11.1 before you 
tried the update? I probably would have signed out of the Mac App store, 
rebooted the system and then signed back into the store just to see what would 
occur. There are a couple of factors, but that would depend on there own 
factors as well, such as Apple ID’s being used, ETC.

Guys,

This isn't really a big deal per sé, but it does have me a little bit curious.

I have a white polycarbon mid 2010 13 inch macbook, which has El Capitan.

For some reason, my mac got really really sluggish, and was practically locking 
up every second I'd turn my head.  I ran all the necessary disk and permission 
repairs etc.  Nothing at all seemed to be helping.  My suspicion is that I had 
an app installed which was really bogging down the system, although even 
looking through Activity Monitor, it was a little hard to determine.

For this reason and a few others, I went ahead and bit the bullet by simply 
just repartitioning the drive, wiping it, and starting clean.  The weird thing 
is, I noticed when I went to the mac app store to download El Capitan, so I 
could use Disk Maker X to create my bootable media, I noticed that 10.11.2 was 
available, although, I only had 10.11.1.  Weirdly enough, though I am not on 
any beta, private nor public at this given time, and though I'm not currently 
even enrolled with this mac for the beta in the first place, Software Update 
simply put, would not, try as I may, let me install nor download the 10.11.2 
update.  It kept telling me no updates were available.  I say it's not a big 
deal, as I simply just went the manual route, and manually downloaded it, but 
why would it be there in the app store, yet Software update not see it?  To me, 
that makes entirely no sense.  Yes, I have my security settings configured in 
System Prefs to notify of OS updates, and never have I had an issue like this 
previously.

It just has me a bit bathled.

Any ideas?  As for the post news of this message, LOL, I did manage to get 
10.11.2 installed from the manual download/install I performed.  I also have 
found that things no longer are sluggish at all.

Chris.
