This is going to be a big pain in the behind for Homebrew, MacPorts, and compiling things from source generally. Currently, from 10.10, the system no longer permits unsigned kexts to run, at all. The only public way to circumvent this 'security' measure at the moment is to disable all kext signing checks, which is a less than delightful solution. My mac is stuck on OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 and won’t update past that, no updates on app store no nothing, I recently bought an iPhone x and iTunes won’t let me sync my old iphone back up because it needs an update which i cannot get, its frustrating me, I don’t know what to do anymore, I’ve looked everywhere on the internet and can’t find a solution. Version 10.10 DP5: System Preferences - System Preferences has an updated look with a slightly redesigned top bar. Launchpad - Launchpad has a new download progress bar. OS X 10.10 Yosemite or later.

OS X 10.10 is a perfectly appropriate name: it’s the best OS X ever, but it’s still OS X.
This happened Saturday, 2014 Aug 16.
• I received an email allegedly from Dropbox.
• It says my Dropbox app is out of date.
• Strange, because the Dropbox app updates itself, silently and automatically.
• I check my Dropbox version. It is Dropbox 2.10.27. Is this the latest, I don't know?
• By the way, I have Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite DP5.
• The email (HTML) contains an 'Update' button anchored to:
https://www.dropbox.com/l/D597IVhchBlArC6GhlySxq/
• That looks legitimate.
• So I click the button. A web page opens, a download begins, disk image decompresses, Dropbox.app appears.
• I double-click the decompressed Dropbox.app. Gatekeeper (Apple security feature built into OS X since late 2012) pops up a dialog, tells me that app is not allowed to launch because it is from an unidentified developer. Eeek!
• I check the version of the decompressed app, (Contents/Info.plist). It says that it is version 1.0. Well, definitely that explains why it would not have been signed for Gatekeeper, if it is indeed Dropbox 1.0 which was published in 2010. But it also would definitely not be an update from my current version 2.10.27.

It seems like either the Saturday night crew at Dropbox has made a major mistake, or this is some kind of new phishing attack that came pretty close to succeeding.
I have reported this to Dropbox support. We’ll see what they say!
UPDATE MONDAY AUG 18 14:00 Pacific
I received a reply from Dropbox:
Thanks for contacting us! This email is actually from us and is not phishing, so go ahead and update your version of Dropbox if you haven't already.
We regularly release new versions of the Dropbox app with additional features, better performance and security enhancements. These updates are automatically applied in most cases, but certain conditions can prevent the update from completing. When this happens, we notify you either through the Dropbox app itself or via email about this situation.
If you received this message, the solution is as simple as getting the latest version from our download page:
https://www.dropbox.com/install
More information about the update process and how to continue using your Dropbox can be found here:
https://www.dropbox.com/help/6251
I hope this information helps!
Aubrey
And if I click on that link, there is a big blue button offering “Dropbox 2.10.28 for Mac”. So, apparently there is a new version, and probably what Aubrey says is all true, as far as it goes.
My explanation is that
• Someone in the Dropbox weekend crew accidentally posted Dropbox 1.0 instead of the latest version of Dropbox.
• Dropbox’ automatic updater ran on my computer.
• It failed to install, possibly because Apple’s Gatekeeper would not allow the old unsigned Dropbox 1.0 which it found.
• The installation failure triggered Saturday's email to me.
• Sometime between Saturday and now, someone at Dropbox took down the 1.0 and posted the correct, latest version.
Anyhow, it looks to be fixed now. I’ll just wait a week and probably Dropbox will update itself.

OS X Yosemite
Introduces Refined New Design, Powerful Apps & Amazing New Continuity Features
SAN FRANCISCO―June 2, 2014―Apple® today announced OS X® Yosemite, a powerful new version of OS X redesigned and refined with a fresh, modern look, powerful new apps and amazing new continuity features that make working across your Mac® and iOS devices more fluid than ever. The new Today view in Notification Center gives you a quick look at everything you need to know, all in one place; iCloud Drive™ is located within the Finder and can store files of any type; and Safari® has a new streamlined design that puts the most important controls at your fingertips. Mail makes editing and sending attachments easier than ever; Handoff lets you start an activity on one device and pass it to the other; and Instant Hotspot makes using your iPhone’s hotspot as easy as connecting to a Wi-Fi network. Yosemite even gives you the ability to make iPhone® calls on your Mac.
“Yosemite is the future of OS X with its incredible new design and amazing new apps, all engineered to work beautifully with iOS,” said Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering. “We engineer our platforms, services and devices together, so we are able to create a seamless experience for our users across all our products that is unparalleled in the industry. It’s something only Apple can deliver.”
With Yosemite, OS X has been redesigned and refined with a fresh modern look where controls are clearer, smarter and easier to understand, and streamlined toolbars put the focus on your content without compromising functionality. Translucent elements reveal additional content in your app window, provide a hint at what’s hidden behind and take on the look of your desktop. App icons have a clean, consistent design and an updated system font improves readability.
The new Today view in Notification Center gives you a quick look at everything you need to know with widgets for Calendar, Weather, Stocks, Reminders, World Clock and social networks. You can even download additional widgets from the Mac App Store℠ to customize your Today view. Spotlight® now appears front and center on your desktop and adds new categories of results, so you can view rich suggestions from Wikipedia, Maps, Bing, App Store, iTunes Store®, iBooks Store™, top websites, news and movie showtimes.
Built right into the Finder, iCloud Drive stores files of any type in iCloud®. iCloud Drive works like any other folder on your Mac, so you can drag documents into it, organize them with folders and Tags and search for them using Spotlight. With iCloud Drive, you can access all your files in iCloud from your Mac, iPhone, iPad® or even a Windows PC.
Safari has a new streamlined design that puts the most important controls at your fingertips. A new Favorites view gives you quick access to your favorite websites, and a powerful new Tabs view displays thumbnails of all your open web pages in one window. Safari also gives you more control over your privacy, with separate Private Browsing windows and built-in support for DuckDuckGo, a search engine that doesn’t track users. When you search for popular or common terms, new Spotlight Suggestions appear along with the suggestions from your search provider. Safari supports the latest web standards, including WebGL and SPDY, and with support for HTML5 Premium Video Extensions, you can watch Netflix HD videos for up to two hours longer.¹ Powered by the Nitro javascript engine, Safari is over six times faster than Firefox and over five times faster than Chrome when executing javascript found in typical websites.²Mail makes editing and sending attachments easier than ever. With Markup you can quickly fill out and sign forms and even annotate images and PDFs from within Mail. Mail Drop allows you to easily send large videos, images or files up to 5GB from the Mail app to any email address. Messages has a new look and delivers even more options for communicating with friends and family. Now you can add titles to ongoing message threads so they are easy to find, add new contacts to ongoing conversations, or leave those conversations you no longer want to follow. With Soundbites you can create, send and listen to audio clips right in Messages.
Continuity features in Yosemite make your Mac and iOS device perfect companions. When your iPhone or iPad is near your Mac, Handoff lets you start an activity on one device and pass it to the other. Instant Hotspot makes using your iPhone’s hotspot as easy as connecting to a Wi-Fi network.³ Now the SMS and MMS messages that previously only appeared on your iPhone appear in Messages on all your devices. You can even send SMS or MMS messages directly from your Mac and make or receive iPhone calls using your Mac as a speakerphone.⁴
Yosemite delivers platform technologies that make it easier for developers to create amazing new Mac apps. SpriteKit makes it easier to incorporate realistic motion, physics and lighting in games, and integrates with SceneKit to bring 3D casual gaming within reach of any developer. Storyboards for Yosemite and Xcode® 6 take advantage of the new View Controller APIs in AppKit to make it easier to build apps that navigate between multiple views of data. New APIs allow developers to integrate Handoff into their own apps and create Today view widgets for distribution through the Mac App Store. Share Menu extensions add new destinations to the Share Menu, and new APIs let developers create custom Share Sheets.
The developer preview of Yosemite is available to Mac Developer Program members starting today. To help make OS X even better, Apple is introducing the OS X Beta Program, which gives customers early access to Yosemite and invites them to try out the release and submit their feedback. Mac users can participate in the OS X Beta Program for Yosemite this summer and download the final version for free from the Mac App Store this fall. Customers interested in signing up can visit www.apple.com/osx/preview for more details.
