      If you're on Emeryville (2.5.5.0 or earlier):

      Confirm that you do not yet have the latest software by following these steps.  If you have the latest version, there is no need to continue.  

      1. Ensure your Origin is connected to WiFi.  

      2. Leave Origin plugged in for 5-10 minutes. Feel free to continue to use your tool. The update will download in the background.

      3. Unplug Origin and plug it back in. 

      4. You will see a confirmation screen after the update has been installed.
