In About this Mac it shows that the OS is Yosemite but the version number is 10.90. Is this normal? I thought Yosemite is 10.10, and Mavericks was 10.9.

OS X Yosemite Version 10.90

Download the latest Yosemite installer from the Mac App Store but do not install it.

Copy following in to your Terminal to verify the downloaded Yosemite file is correct:

shasum /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg

Wait for a minute for it to calculate. The result for the previous version should be:

eebf02a20ac27665a966957eec6f5e6fe3228a19  /Applications/Install OS X Yosemite.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg

And for Yosemite Download as of Nov. 27 the result is:

a673c2c6d967f4da2934b7d6cf3736936970b194  /Applications/Install OS X Yosemite.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg

Proceed with Install.
