10.6.4 Graphics update & 10.6.5?

Hi...I got Snow Leopard today because there are some games on Steam I wanted to play but the specific ones I want require 10.6.4 & the 10.6.4 Graphics update in order to play them...so I got home & installed SL 10.6.3 from the disc and then did an update from finder. After updating,low & behold I see i'm at 10.6.5..(I didn't know about this updates existence until then)...anyway..I downloaded the 10.6.4 Graphics update but when I tried to install, it said my system wasn't supported & it required 10.6.4 to be installed....so i guess i'm asking: whether the 10.6.4 Graphics Update was likely included in the 10.6.5 update or if i need to roll back to 10.6.4 (if thats even possible?) and then install the Graphics Update? Or should I be able to install this update anyway and I am getting this error msg for another reason? thanks in advance for any help

It's included in 10.6.5.

  • Macbook Pro no longer support Apple Cinema Display after graphic update 1.0

    I recently updated my system to ver. 10.5.2 and after that I updated to graphic system 1.0. After that my macbook pro began to have several problems dealing with my 23" Apple Cinema Display.
    1- if started in 'closed lid' mode it gives me a kernel panic (shaded screen) error during start up
    2- if started in 'open lid' mode it boots fine but whether i decide to close the lid it fails to wake from sleep mode. It starts for one or two seconds and then it gets back to sleep.
    So, I made a long time taking test during the weekend and after several "archive and install" I found that this issue is related to the leopard graphic system update 1.0. Somehow this update mess up the way that macbook pro deals with my Apple Cinema Display.
    I hope that someone at Apple will address this issue toward a solution in a short time.
    I appreciate any other experience in this sense by anybody.
    Thank you for any reply.

    Check out the 'Apple Displays' forum and you'll find that you are not alone. MBP/Cinema Display relationship broken since graphics updater. Hopefully an Apple patch soon, or it's time for an Archive and Install w/o updating the graphics.

  • Problems with Snow Leopard Graphics Update

    I downloaded the new graphics update for Snow Leopard, but when I go to install it it says I need at least a version 10.6.4 OS to use it. I double checked my OS, and that is exactly what I have. What's the problem?

    Well I found out what was going on in another thread, apparently my computer already has it incorporated in it, just Steam doesn't recognize that.

  • Snow Leopard Graphics Update question...

    How do you know if you have the Snow Leopard Graphics Update is installed on your Mac? Can one check in system profiler? Is that I went from 10.6.3 to 10.6.4 via software update, and then when I ran Software Update in 10.6.4, it only showed the Mac OS X 10.6.5 Update rather than the Snow Leopard Graphics Update and the security update as supposed to, I was hoping that when I installed the OSX 10.6.5 update it also instlled the Snow Leopard Graphics update and all the Security Updates issued in 10.6.4 run.
    Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

    I was hoping that when I installed the OSX 10.6.5 update it also instlled the Snow Leopard Graphics update and all the Security Updates issued in 10.6.4 run.
    It did.

  • Leopard graphic update

    I downloaded and installed the recommended Leopard graphic update, and now certain type on websites appears blurry. I've had this problem before, but fixed it by changing the font smoothing style and text sharpening, however, now no matter what changes I make, the problem persists. Is there anything else I can do? For all intents and purposes major sites like CNN's breaking news banner reads like I'm wearing coke-bottle glasses, and working with larger non-standard type in Pages is giving me a headache. Any advice welcome.

    It's actually what I do all the times. When I say that I start in 'closed lid' mode I intend that I open the lid to press the start button and immediately close the lid. In this particular case the Apple Cinema Display remains inactive and after a short while the apple on the lid of my Macbook Pro turns lit and when I open the screen has a black multi language alert which advise me to restart my machine by pressing the start button. After I restart the my Mac in 'open lid' mode and after I log in, appears a message that tells me that the system was restarted after crash and here comes the detailed error that follows:

    There is one more thing: as I told before, I thought that the culprit was the graphic update 1,0 but today I have the same problem without it.

  • Unable to install Leaopard Graphics Update v 1.0 in intel iMAC

    My iMAC keeps prompting me to install an update called "Leopard Graphics Update version 1.0". It seems to download, but then the computer indicates that it cannot install it owing to some authentication or verification issues. Don't want to install this if it may be a danger to the computer. Would like to either get it installed properly or make it stop prompting me for this particular update. What should I do? Please advise. Allen Colson

    Hi Allen Colson;
    Have you repaired permissions?

  • Problems After Snow Leopard Graphics Update 1.0

    Hi Mac Users,
    I recognised some problems with graphic on Mc OS X 10.6.4 after software update SL Graphics Update 1.0 for example:
    - expose extra blue square for window of the application,
    - iPhoto photo preview frame became transparent grey and it comes above not only iPhoto windows but all behind,
    - problems with Safari
    - problems with expose with all window of one application
    - others.
    To fix it go please to website appletoolbox.com (topic as subject of this thread) or simple search for it by the subject of this thread in web search engine like Google for example.
    Simply try:
    Reset SMS - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Also instructions and link on mention website.
    or
    Safe Boot of Mac OS X - press and hold Shift button after turning on Mac.
    Good luck and hopefully Apple will not make more extra problematic updates for us Users
    PS. I check that there is no problem on MacBook Pro 2008 edition with this update.
    MacJU

    mine isnt going nuts but the display wont come back on after waking from sleep (each time and has been replicable since update installed). so i turned it off from sleeping (the computer) but the display sleeps and that also wont come back on when moving the mouse or pressing any keys. only way to get screen back up is performing a cold boot which kinda *****.
    ive tried clearing pram but that didnt help. im not sure whats in the graphics update but the next time i reinstall os, i might just skip this update because its causing me more issues than it supposedly solves (im not a big gamer anyway)
    this occurs on a mbp 7,1 (13" early 2010). i have not seen or heard it happen on a mbp 5,4 nor have i tried it on my mbp 6,2 (15" early 2010), but even then the screen on my mbp 6,2 has been going nuts before the update (im guessing a faulty card?) but i use my mbp 7,1 for main development work.
    i hope apple solves this issue soon

  • IMac G4 graphical issues- 10.5.8 (w/ Graphics Update 1.0!) Help!

    Hi!
         I've searched EVERYWHERE for help with this- ot no avail . I have a 700MHz (15") iMac G4 (32MB Nvidia GeForece2 MX) 1GB RAM, running Leopard. Unsupported, yes, but with LeopardAsisst, CleanMyMac and Monolingual, it has been running extremely well despite the curcumstances . But I have re-installed OS X countless times (Clean, Archive & install, etc) Cleaning caches/optimizing/countless tasks w/ OnyX, and every time i wake from sleep, little lines of pixels like this: --- show up multicolored, and never go away until a reboot. what's worse, if you move the mouse, they follow it and make a horrible path of colored lines. Also, when I open Grids in the Stacks folders, the outside of it is lined with weird patterns and colored lines. I honestly despise Tiger after living in the luxury of Leopard, and since performance isn't an issue, what's left? Many others have put Leopard on unofficially, and have no problems! I'm so aggravated, and I just want a fix- permanently. Any ideas? Please help! A 13-year-old could barely afford a G4, let alone a NEW Mac! Graphics Update never helped, and I have (in my many re-installs) used every update of Leoaprd, without a fix. Surely there is one (fix)? PLEASE help, and thanks so much- I can give any more info if desired! P.S. My iMac is upgraded from head to toe- 120GB HD, 1GB RAM, SuperDrive, Clock Battery replaced, (obviously no CPU/GPU upgrades as it is soldered to the logic board) Again, thanks!
    All respect,
    Noah Budgor

    I assume you tried resetting PRAM and PMU...?
    If you have the iMac plugged into an old or overcrowded power strip (surge suppressor), be sure to try connecting it directly to the wall outlet (as a test) to see if it makes any difference.
    You said that you tried many re-installs... If you re-installed Tiger instead of Leopard, does this problem recur?

  • Leopard 10.5.2 Graphics Update Screws up Resolution?

    I have an outboard Viewsonic 22" Monitor and after installing the 10.5.2 Leopard Graphics Update that just released today, my monitor shows as a generic "Color LCD" rather than the Viewsonic. I'm connected using a DVI connector.
    The display works, but the resolutions don't show in the display preferences that I need; it shows only resolutions on the native display, not on the Viewsonic monitor.

    I have the same problem, however it was working fine for a while. Now, it has same LCD option, not the HP 23" that i have hooked up.
    Apple, please fix!

  • Graphics update = screen-tearing in Safari

    Has anyone else who has installed the Snow Leopard Graphics Update noticed a pronounced screen-tearing effect when scrolling in Safari? The first left 10% of a Safari window appear to be totally out of sync with the rest of the page.
    UPDATE: The same effect doesn't appear to happen in Firefox. Maybe it's limited to Safari?

  • Display problems after installing 10.5.2 and the leopard graphics update

    Shortly after installing the leopard graphics update, my display started exhibiting problems.
    The next day, the powerbook wouldn't even boot, just leaving me at a blue screen.
    I tried verifying permissions and verifying disk, reinstalling leopard and eventually did a fresh install of Tiger, which boots, but crashes frequently and has graphics corruption as visible in this screenshot:
    http://pics.livejournal.com/dorukai/pic/000fw0hw
    The same corruption is visible on a second monitor if I connect one.
    The timing (being right after installing the graphics update) suggests that the update somehow caused this problem (flashing the video card firmware maybe?) but any ideas at all are very welcome at this point!
    Unfortunately after installing Tiger I kept getting updates, and one has broken the ability to boot normally, I can only boot in safe mode

    I have the same problem. It happened right after I installed the graphics update. When the computer restarted, my screen went crazy. I couldn't see anything, just a screen full of horizontal lines. After restarting a couple of times it seemed to go away, but it has begun to happen again recently. although not as bad yet. I am not saying it's not a logic board issue, but it does seem funny that more than one person is experiencing the same type of problem after the graphics update. I guess it's time to take a trip to the apple store.

  • HP Support Assistant not installing graphics updates

    I am trying to update my graphics driver through the HP Support Assistant, as it tells me that there is an update to it. It goes through the process of downloading the update, but it doesn't instal. I have already tried uninstalling the support assistant with Microsoft Fixit and reinstalling. I even ran the assistant as Administrator to see if it was a permissions issue. Unfortunately the driver page for my computer (http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-110-000-Desktop-PC-series/5359000/model/5365304/drivers) does not have the new one 10.18.10.3621Ap1/sp67247.
    Do I need to delete my old graphics driver first? Is there a place where I can just direct download it and install myself? Is there a location where the Support Assistant downloads it to that I can get it from there? Any help that isn't simply "Uninstall and Reinstall" would be greatly appreciated.
    Included are pictures of the Support Assistant and what is happening.

  • Permissions Error Installing Graphic Update With Software Update

    I tried to install Leopard Graphic Update 1.0 using Software Update and got a permissions error. There was also a message saying the package had been moved to the trash and to use the Finder to install it.
    There was no package in the trash so I manually downloaded and installed Leopard Graphic Update 1.0.
    I am running 10.5.2 on a 1 GHz iMac G4.
    Has any one else seen this problem? Any idea what is wrong?
    Thanks.

    Ditto for me when installing Leopard Graphics Update 1.0 via Software Update.
    Manual download and install worked w/o a hitch.
    Curious Note: /Library/Updates/Leopard Graphics Update/Packages/SUGraphicsDrivers200801-1.0.dist had odd permissions in that the admin group had read access but a different admin account had write access. This was the last account logged in prior to my upgrading to Leopard from the DVD, but Software Update has never been run from that account. I gave the admin group write access (from the Get Info window) prior to manually installing the update. I doubt that had anything to do with the manual install working, but it might have something to do with Software Update failing.

  • Graphics update for snow leopard. HELP!

    Hey! I just downloaded a game app called steam(not too important) and i downloaded this game. The only problem is that its insanely laggy. So  i wanna know if there are any graphics update for 2011 snow leopard. I checked my version and it says im running 10.6.7. Im not sure if thats goodor bad so someone let me now what i have to do to make my mac a little better with gaming. I do not game a lot, but i really want this game :')
    Heres some of the info!:

    If there is a graphics update, it will be incorporated into an update via Software Update. There is no other way to update graphics cards or drivers in a Mac.
    Your Macbook only has 2 GB RAM -  it may help to increase RAM (of course that won't help the graphics issue), but it may help.
