Did Apple break their SMB stack again in 10.9.3?

Updated to 10.9.3 this morning now my SMB connections are slower than ever.  10.9.2 seemed to have fixed a bunch of issues with SMB, but now after updating to 10.9.3, it seems worse than it was before 10.9.2. 

Agreed, it is slower than before 10.9.2, plus introduced new bugs as well.

  • Did Apple Break HD-DVD Playback with Mountain Lion using Apple DVD Player?

    First of all, kindly spare me the commentary about Blu-Ray beating HD-DVD. Agreed and not the question. I have perfectly good reasons for using HD-DVD and it works very well for my purposes.
    I authored an HD-DVD in DVD Studio Pro 4.2.2. as I have done many times before on Snow Leopard, but this time on Mountain Lion. When I try to play the HD-DVD, either from the physical disk from a disk image, the menu appears, but when the play button is pressed, the menu stays on screen, but the player shows the timecode of the movie playing, but with no sound or picture.
    Thinking that perhaps the menu got corrupted, I put the same HD-DVD into a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard, and it played perfectly! Conclusion: Not a DVD Studio Pro problem.
    Thinking that it might be DVD Player, I copied DVD Player 5.4 from the Snow Leopard MacBook Pro to the Mountain Lion MacBook Pro (which was running DVD Player 5.6), and the HD-DVD still had the same issue on the Mountain Lion MacBook Pro, under either of the DVD Player versions. Conclusion: Not a DVD Player issue.
    The HD-DVD does mount and initialize, so it's not a hardware issue with the optical drive.
    Conclusion: It would appear to me that it's an OS issue with Mountain Lion breaking (either intentionally or unintentionally), HD-DVD playback. Anyone know anything more about this issue? Anyone else saddened to see Apple turn into Microsoft circa 2005, and the MacOS turn into Vista? I haven't seen much of anything about it in the forums, which is why I'm posting it here.
    Thanks Apple. I just spent the better part of 3 days transcoding and authoring this HD-DVD, only to have you screw it up for me 2 days before my film festival (the perfectly good reason for using HD-DVD). Kindly spare me the, "Why don't you encode a ProRes blah blah blah quicktime movie." Heard it all before.
    I knew I would regret upgrading to Mountain Lion, and I do more and more each and every day as I continually find more things that it broke. Yet another reason to add to my list for downgrading to Snow Leopard. I'm up to about 30 of them. Or to abandon Final Cut for Adobe products.
    Thanks and sorry for the rant, but I'm justifiably frustrated.

    Update: The Apple Store in Nashua, New Hampshire replicated the issue on their own hardware, so yes, Apple did break HD-DVD playback with Mountain Lion (it does still work in Lion, they discovered). The Apple Store reported the issue to engineering, but the more people that report the issue, the more likely Apple will do something about it. Thanks Apple.

  • Why did Apple break the good Bluetooth/headphones options?

    New Bluetooth is very dangerous (if you're driving)!
    OS 2.x = listening to music via headphone jack over car stereo, phone call interrupts, talk on Bluetooth headset, hang up & music restarts automatically through headphone jack.
    OS 3.0 = listening to music via headphone jack over car stereo, phone call interrupts, talk on Bluetooth headset, hang up & music DOESN'T restart! Have to take eyes off road to screw around with music!
    OS 3.0 = Bluetooth headset paired. Plug in headphones, music doesn't automatically switch to headphone output
    OS 3.0 = make phone call via Bluetooth headset, hang up. Dial new number and hit SEND, phone defaults back to IPHONE instead of staying on headset (again while driving, requiring more time dealing with phone instead of driving!)
    VERY disappointed!

    So a year ago I rushed out and bought Bluetooth headphones to use with my iphone, only to findout that the protocall wasn't supported. I bought an adapter and everything worked great (well mostly the music would stop when a call would come in but start again in the background after taking the call.) I lost the adapter a month ago, but knowing this update was coming just counted the days.
    So now I have the update and am quite satisfied to be listening to music and apps through my headphones. I was dismayed to dicover the lack of forward and backward protocall, but am not suprised, I knew apple couldn't give us EVERYTHING we wanted, they have to hold on to somthing for the "next big updated!" What really ****** me off is when I get a call I can no longer answer it on my headphones! I used to be I'd press the answer call button, but now nothing happens, I have to answer it on the phone and select my headset to output through. I'm getting a palm pre.
    (I have Sony DR-BT21G headphones and would be interested to hear if anyone has been able to get their headphones to work for music and answering calls directly on their headphones.)

  • Did Apple discontinue their 17" MacBook Pro?

    Currently I am still using an early 2008 17" MacBook Pro... although it still works great, I am sure I will have to upgrade it pretty soon 'cuz it's running pretty slow.  When I look at the Apple online store, I only saw their 13" and their 15" MBP.  Does it mean they don't make the 17" anymore?  Does anyone know?  Thanks!

    See this discussion - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4021192?tstart=0.
    No, Apple discontinued the 17" model - apparently it was only garnering 2% of total MacBook Pro sales. A market, but a very small market.

  • Did Apple break Kindle connectivity?

    I returned from holiday and now my Kindle doesn't connect to my iMac-generated wifi anymore. What gives, man. I can't remember if maybe there was an update released recently that may have broken this?
    I tried the 8-step 'solution' in another thread about removing and reinstalling the airport card in Network settings, but that didn't work. The Kindle just says it can't connect to the wireless network when it used to have no problem.
    Is this a known issue and is there a fix?
    Thanks
    Bob

    I have an iMac connected to a wired router, so I have been using the iMac's internet sharing to generate a wireless hotspot for my Kindle and other devices. I think it had no password. Is that ad-hoc? I know Kindle now tells me it won't work with ad-hoc networks, but it didn't have any trouble with it before today.
    Until today, this worked fine with the Kindle. Now it gives me that can't connect message. I haven't had problems connecting with the Kindle to other hotspots. Also my iPad has no trouble connecting to this iMac-generated network.
    I can't think of anything that has changed, except that I think I did install some updates just before I left. That is why I am thinking that's what broke it.
    Anyone know what I could try? I've already tried password/no-password, WEP 40 and 128, changing the wireless channel.
    Thanks

  • After updating my IOS TO 8.1 (12B411) on 10/23/14, I went to update my blood sugar level in the IHealth app. And now after the new IOS update I'm unable to find the blood glucose option in the IHealth app. Did Apple remove it or just mess up AGAIN?

    Apple removed blood glucose until further notice. The reason behind this is that it gave a distorted picture in countries where the medical world used other measuring units. I suspect it will be available again in a future update.

  • Why did Apple choose O2 as their carrier in the UK????

    Why did Apple choose O2 to be the carrier in the UK when their 3G network is truly awful?
    I get 1 bar of signal on 3G most of the time
    Wouldn't it have been more useful for Apple to sign with 3 as they are the main 3G carrier in the UK?

    I am using my Italian, unlocked, iPhone here in UK with Orange. Coverage is mostly OK and orange has got EDGE when 3G is not available.
    I have heard funny stories about O2 coverage but that has nothing to do with the iPhone itselfit is just the network.
    I found the T-Mobile site very useful where you can punch 3 postcodes where you mostly are and it will tell you what data and voice coverage you have.
    O2 has a similar service but I am told by fellow iPhone users that is not reliable.
    Not very useful to have unlimited data if you don't have coverage but you can pop into a cafe and they for sure will have Wifi that you can use.

  • I bought an Apple TV and used its yesterdary all the day...when I rented a film, its spend about 4 hours to charge... I think it isn't normal... Did Apple had some problem in their network yesterday? Do you have some clue to me? Tks and Rgds

    Download time is mostly related to your internet connection speed.  Beside, there's no need to wait for the entire movie to download before you start watching it; only some buffer needs to be downloaded.  When the buffer is filled, you should get a message that your rented movie can now be watched which usually happen within a minute of the purchase on standard cable connection.

  • Why did apple stop supporting disc installed video games in their macs

    I was wondering why did apple support disc installed games like spore on older macs but they wont install on the newer macs. This is really bothering me because i like disc installed videos games they are safer and you have to purchase them in order to play them unless you have a crack. Now apple is saying that discs are obsolete when really they aren't.

    These are user-to-user forums where everyday folk (volunteers) post questions and offer answers (technical support) to each other.None of us users take part in any of Apple's decisions and/or why they do the things that do.  Your best bet would be to post your concerns over on the Product Feedback website.

  • How did Apple screw up the maps app this badly?

    I am normally not a complainer, but rather appreciate great technology.
    However, I am shocked beyond description about how badly Apple screwed up the maps application in IOS 6.
    The maps application is the by far the most frequently used and most useful iphone application for me.
    I rely on it all the time.  It WAS so incredibly easy to use, and almost always dependable.
    Yes, turn-by-turn directions would be nice, but not at the cost of screwing up so many other critical features.
    I have now had 2 extremely frustrating experiences.
    The other night, I was driving home from work and using the maps application to route to a store.  I was using the voice instruction mode.  There was heavy traffic so I wanted to zoom out / around to look for alternate routes.  Well, this is almost impossible to do, and furthermore, there is much less accurate and detailed information about traffic conditions.  This would have been a piece of cake with the old maps application.
    Yesterday, I had to make a trip to Pacific Sales in San Jose.I tried "Pacific" with the mapped zoomed to the general area, and it could not find it.Then I tried "Pacific sales", again no luck.  Its an appliance store, so I tried "appliances", and again no luck.
    Finally, I had to log into the web, go to google maps, and find it there.
    It was slow, but it worked!
    1 month ago, I had the highest confidence in Apple due to their track record of deliverying great stuff that works and is easy to use.
    I would never have considered an android phone.
    However, this problem with the maps app has so shaken my confidence in Apple, that I will go today to look at a Samsung Galaxy III.
    Maybe its not going to be my thing, but I hope Apple realizes how big they screwed up.
    The Apple of Steve Jobs would never, ever, ever have let this happen.
    The old Apple would have stayed with Google Maps for another year, and made this new maps app better, more reliable, and more user friendly than Android BEFORE releasing it.  It would have been revolutionarily good and would have surprised us with how good it was.
    I really truly love Apple and its products.
    But this is a really bad mistake and I am so fearful that its an omen of whats to come in future from Apple.
    I would not be surprised if this very deeply damages Apple at a time when the competition is getting tougher & tougher.
    Of all the functions on the Apple Iphone, the maps are the heart and soul.  Apple is probably right to go its own way eventually, but not like this!
    It is just going to drive people into the arms of Android.
    I am just curious, did Apple actually test this thing thoroughly before releasing it?
    I mean, it took me only a few days to figure out this thing is total crap.
    How did Apple not know this (which is a very scary thought), or maybe even more scary, maybe they did know but feel they have enough market power to get away with it?  I can't think of any other explanations. So, which is it?  Either way, its very bad news for Apple fans.

    Ok, 3 more wonderful IOS 6 maps experiences to share!
    When out shopping for paints, decided to visit Kelly Moore.
    Used the maps app and used it to take me to the nearest store, except it was not where maps said it would be!
    I called the Kelly Moore store, and they told me the maps app has the wrong town, and they have had many customers with the same problem!
    Next up, I was looking for a Sherwin Williams store in San Jose, so maps took me to El Camino Real, except it took me to the wrong end of El Camino Real in Santa Clara, about 15 minutes from the right destination in Mountain View!  In fact, the app took me to Santa Clara University!
    Last up, I was looking for a Chevron station.  Apps routed me to the location, but no gas station. 
    So, I finally decide to use google maps through the browser, and it ends up it was again the right address but wrong city!!!! 
    Unbelievable!  My confidence in Apple has been further shaken, to where I am about to give up.
    I just can't trust their app, which is something I depend on every day to save me time, money and gas.
    So disappointed in Apple right now...  It makes antenna gate look like a minor incident, which it was in my opinion!

  • Why did Apple ruin iWork? How do I downgrade back to 09'?

    Why did Apple ruin iWork? How do I downgrade back to 09'?
    The new iWork is a major major major major dissappointment. I'm so let down by Apple. Perhaps it was their goal to bolster 3rd parties like MS Office, cause that's what I was just forced to use again . . . .

    Now Apple really gave me another good definition of "There is no such a free lunch."
    This new "free" iWork really cost me a terrible headache, huge time lost, and horrible frustration. No time to give Apple feedback because I am busy fixing all my iWork's files.
    Upgrade should be adding new better features to what already exist.

  • IMovie DOES NOT AUTOSAVE!!! Why the **** did Apple remove "Save" in the first place and how to fix this problem?!?!

    There's no good reason Apple removed the ability to manually save. I work in a project, I save it at a point and then make edits that I may or may not want. It could be 1000 changes I make before I see that I'm not satisfied with them and want to revert back to my last saved session. In iMovie not only can I not do that but the autosave doesn't work and has cost me tens of hours!
    iMovie just hit me with a bug saying I couldn't share becuase there wasn't enough memory so I have to quit iMovie, open it up again then try to share it. Well, there IS enough memory so I don't know why it was saying that anyway. But besides that, I was afraid to quit iMovie because the **** thing never saves.
    I google and find out I can duplicate a project and that should save it. I do that. Restart it. Bam. None of the changes I've spent the past 2 days on saved....
    Why has Apple broken their iMovie like this and is there ANYONE that has figured out a way to make projects save?
    This is absolutely the last time I'm using iMovie (or any Apple app that removed manual save) but I've done too much editing to start all over again in another video editor. I need to make these changes AGAIN then save them.
    How?!

    The first G4 models were basically a repackaged/upgraded G3 & came in 350 & 400MHz models. This design was called PCI version. The next G4 models were AGPs. This link http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g4/index-powermac-g4.html has the specs/pictures of all the G4 models.

    Using these links, you should be able to determine which model you have.
    Removing the battery causes all settings in the internal memory to be reset, just like resetting the PMU/CUDA. See Mac PRAM, NVRAM, CUDA/PMU & Battery Tutorial

  • Why did Apple raise its prices overnight by $200 on the iMac, including refurbished models.

    Other than greed and trying to narrow the spread between the price of the old iMacs and the just-announced new iMac, why did Apple raise its prices overnight by $200 on the iMac, including refurbished models? Their existing product component costs didn't increase overnight.

  • Why did apple mail get much worse with lion osx?  I can't add recipients without copy and paste?

    why did apple mail get much worse with lion osx?  I can't add recipients without copy and paste?

    I went through updates on my three newest Macs this week.  As I stated I'm talking about iTunes 10.5.1 (42).  I am checking for updates now and I see 10.5.2 is now available.  I'll know in about 15 minutes if this issue is fixed or not.
    15 minutes later:
    I must have updated this PPC G5 a day or two before iTunes 10.5.2 came out.  I was able to update to 10.5.2 (11) and this copy/paste bug is fixed.  I'm happy again.
