Lion OS X 10.7.3 combo update bugs

After installing 10.7.3 combo update, I found out some bugs:
The major one is the login screen freezing. Occasionally, when I quit from sleep mode to the login screen. The screen freezes, no respond to either keyboard or trackpad. Then it goes back to sleep mode again. This wasn't happening when I was using the previous version 10.7.2.
Another one is the dashboard calculator. Every time I press once to a number button, it shows up two digits.
I don't use time machine. Will there be any methods that can revert my OS to 10.7.2?

File bug reports via Apple's feedback link.
If you haven't been making bootable backups/clones, then there's no way to go back unless you retained a copy of the 10.7.2 or earlier install app.

Mountain lion combo updater

I can't find a download link for the 10.8 combo updater. Does it usually take a while after release for that to appear?

I did already purchase it. But I was remembering the method I used when I updated to Lion, which was probably a few weeks after the original release, by which time there was already a 10.7.1 update. I purchased it, but canceled the update, and downloaded the combo updater to avoid some reported problems.
Thanks for reminding me there's no "combo" until there's something to combine!

Lion Combo Update 10.7.3 Error: What is wrong with my computer?

I was having some issues with my laptop and was advised to update to the newest version of lion using the combo update. I was already using the normal, most recent version on lion downloaded and installed via software update (10.7.3).
Now I've tried to install the 10.7.3 combo update twice and it gets stuck at 'less than one minute remaining' and sits like that for hours with no progress. It then says 'About 6 minutes', and again sits for hours without progress. The installer IS responding, the loading bar is animated and nothing I can tell is causing the issue (I've closed all background applications and turned of my antivirus). Please help! Also, I suspect because yesterday I turned off my laptop in the middle of the process after waiting hours for something to change, a lot of my applications immediately crash when trying to be opened. It's a nightmare! I've had hardware troubles in the past so I'm hoping this isnt a result of those.
Here is the screenshot of my installer:

Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Erase the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

Hi, Hi, Hi I have the old MacBook Pro. Upgraded to Mountain Lion which completely wrecked the system. So downgraded to Snow Leopard. The updated the combo update. Now stuck on blue screen at start-up. Need help. Greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,

Then updated the combo update. Now stuck on blue screen at start-up.
Need help. Greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Downgrade Lion/Mountain Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer
      loads select your language and click on the Continue
      button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the
      Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the
      mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status
      of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then
      the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART
      info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on
      the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions
      from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS
      Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
      partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on
      the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

HT1338 Desire to install "OS X Combo Update" so I can install QuickTime 7 to Mountain Lion

Desire to install "OS X Combo Update"so I can install Quick Time 7.
Thanks. Roger

There's something I don't understand. First, open  > About this Mac, and tell me what you see next to Version. If it's 10.8.4, you have the latest version, so you don't have to reinstall 10.8.4.
What problem have you got installing QuickTime 7? Have you followed the steps of this page? > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3678

Combo Update for Mountain Lion v10.8.5? Help.

I just bought my MacBook Pro earlier today. In my app store I have to do an update to OS X Update Combined 10.8.5 I try to update the system and I cant because its giving me an error code of 102! So I then tried to download it from the apple site and it wont even show progress in the downloads folder. The most it will go to is about 5% then just stay there until I delete it. I need help, please!

If you download the Combo updater from -> http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1676 - don't try to stop the download. It's a 831MB file, so it may take some time to download (depending on your Internet speed).
Once it's downloaded, simply double-click on the .dmg file and then couble-click the installer.
How fast is your Internet connection?

Still cannot open App Store even after 10.6.8 Combo Update

Any help on this would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I need to get the App Store working so that I can re-install a Lion upgrade that I already purchased before. I had to replace my HD and now with 10.6.8, the App Store will not open.
I have installed the 10.6.8 Combo Update and then done the other software updates through the System Preferences.
This still comes up when I try to open App Store:
"App store cannot be opened because of a problem.

Try uninstalling the App Store app using this utility > Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
Just moving the App Store app to the Trash doesn't delete all the associated files.
Then try the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
See if that will reinstall the App Store so you can re download Lion.
At some point, you may need the original install discs even if that works.
Replacement disc(s) from Apple:   You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.

Installing Combo Update If I Already Have OS X 10.8.2

Hi there!
My Macbook Pro 2011 slowed down drastically after the Mountain Lion installation (it wasn't a clean installation... just updated it straight, from Snow Leopard). I just heard about the combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1581 so was wondering if this will fix the issue or it's no point since I'm already using 10.8.2... Btw, when I installed Mountain Lion the version I got was 10.8.2...
Just wondering...
Thanks!!

1) Did you uninstall using Sophos' uninstaller? Just wondering if there is something still arround.
2) What is slow about the bootup? Is it stuck on the gray screen for a while, or is it slow loading up all the programs that were left open when you restarted?
3) You might try ClamXAV for scanning those files you transfer. It can just sit there and not do anything until you want to scan those files with it. However, you might be able to set up Sophos to not be so intrusive, also.
Thomas has a lot of good advice, here: Mac Malware Guide

10.7.3 Combo Updated and still no internet connectivity, 15" Early '11 MBP, Wi-Fi or ethernet

Early 2011 15" MacBook Pro, 2.2Ghz i7, 8GB RAM
I downloaded the 10.7.3 delta update on Saturday and installed it without issues. As soon as I started using it I was unable to connect to any internet conenction within OS X. Wi-Fi, Ethernet, nothing can connect to the internet, although I can connect to the router.
I am able to connect to the internet using my Boot Camp Windows 7 partition, as well as through the Lion Recovery Disk's Safari Browser.
I was able to download the 10.7.3 combo update as the hopeful solution to my problems using Windows 7.
However, after installing it I am in no better position and my 10.7.3 install still has no access whatsoever to the internet.
Looking for an urgent fix, and have tried most of the various forum suggestions (checking/unchecking settings, etc.) - all to no avail.
Please help.

I've been on 10.7.1 thru 10.7.3 and am still suffering from connectivity issues (brand new MBA running Lion). If you search using the keywords Lion Wifi Problems (or something to that effect) a lot pops up...one thread has almost 200k views and the other's got over 45k (other threads have a few hundred or a few thousand), just in the Apple Support area alone, ignoring the bloggers that have also raised this issue.
The issue doesn't affect everyone running Lion, or all of a particular type of machine, but there are enough reports of Lion on different machines (upgrades to older machines, and pre-installed brand new ones, desktops and notebooks), using different routers, in different countries, etc., to show that this is a statistically significant problem, and that there's most certainly a bug in the OS. There are people running PCs and older OS versions and iOS on the same network, and the only thing with the problem is the machine running Lion. Unforunately, Apple has not officially acknowledged this problem, so for those of us who've tried everything and run out of options, we're stuck with what we've got - an expensive machine that can rarely/barely connect to the internet.
There are some temporary fixes like logging out and logging back in (sometimes after logging into a different account), renewing the DHCP lease in network preferences, turning the router off and on again, reinstalling the OS, deleting all the remembered networks and passwords, deleting the preference file and letting it rebuild, changing the order of services in network preferences (e.g. so WiFi comes before Bluetooth), setting up a continuous ping so the network doesn't disconnect because there's no data transfer, etc., etc. For some people, this miraculously works, but for most, it's a quick fix or doesn't help at all.
10.7.3 was supposed to address part of the issue (not finding a network when waking from sleep), but unfortunately hasn't for most people. I'm starting to think the only way this will get fixed is if people kick up enough of a fuss to mainstream media that they start to take notice and report on this. I would think that this is far worse a problem than the antenna issue, because these machines are more expensive, and lose connectivity regardless of how we hold them or where we take them. This is particularly frustrating for those of us who own machines that have no ethernet port, or are in places where the only option is WiFi.
Best of luck with resolving this. Hopefully Apple will fix things soon!

Reinstall 10.8.2 Combo update on AIR 2012, no way ?

Hi.
I have always been able to re-install the Mac OS X Combo update on top again.
On my Macbook Pro, iMac 27" and a Mac pro but on my Macbook Air 2012 with 10.8.2 installed.
I can't re-install 10.8.2 Combo update again. I do that sometimes if strange things happen.
Then this is an easy fix must of the times. But strangely enough. I can't do it on this Air ???
I have done it tons of time on all my other Macs running Lion and Snow Lion.
This Air have Mountain Lion but is'nt that the same ???
Please if anyone knows why it want let me re-install the Combo update again. Let me know ASAP.
Thanks a lot.
Erik S

Hi bro.
Thx for your quick replay
Yes its the latest Air 2012 model and it already have the combo 10.8.2 update on it.
But how can the 10.8.2 be newer that the 10.8.2 combo update ???? Thats that latest update from what i know.
And i have always been able to re-install the combo again if anything was strange. But not on this.
It just tells me that its not for this model ?
Its not bought right now. I had it 2 month and i updated it to 10.8.2 my self.
Version 10.8.2 installed is 10.8.2 build 12C3006
I also used the ML 10.8.2 Supplemental Update 2.0

Try repairing your hard drive and permissions then retry:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

SL 10.6.8 combo update keeps failing on me

I have a mid 2009 macbook pro 13in. that came with in Leopard. In anticipation of Lion, I bought a retail copy of Snow Leopard being 10.6.3. I needed to upgrade to 10.6.8 to be able to get mac app store. But everytime i run software updater and download combo update for 10.6.8, it always fail. I tried cleaning up my disk by clean installing the retail snow leopard 10.6.3 and using migration assistant to restore my user, apps, settings, files and all that. but after doing all that trouble, combo 10.6.8 still fails. am i doing something wrong? or is there a problem with the update file itself?
I want to fix this so once i get Lion and encounter any problem, i can go back to 10.6.8 in a breeze.
help badly needed.

runs installer, verifies it and when it starts to write the files and showed how much time left to finish the install, it will stop and show a window that the installation failed and i need to restart.
i forgot to mention that i can update to 10.6.8 from 10.6.3 by taking the long road of updating to 10.6.4 then 10.6.5... and so on, until i get to 10.6.8. but updating from 10.6.3 directly to 10.6.8 using combo update fails everytime even if i try it on 10.6.4, 10.6.5 and so on...
im looking through most discussions but i cant seem to find someone having the same issue as mine.

Cant apply 10.7.5 combo update?

I have a 2006 MacPro that I installed the 10.7.5 Update through the normal software update process that resulted in my system acting up and would like to install the 10.7.5 combo update which many say fixes these issues but when using the installer it says "Mac OS X Update Combined can't be installe don this disk. This volume does not meet the requirements foro this update."
Any suggestions?

I have the same problem.
I update through normal mechanism from 10.7.3 to 10.7.5. But the computer is still finicky so I download the combo update for 10.7.5 and tried to install it. It gives me the message that my disk does not meet the requirements. (I took the combo update here :
OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)). Repairing the volume, the disk, clearing caches, updating the system, trying in safe boot. Nothing worked.
I also tried to the terminal to no avail. Notice in the terminal output the weird "Status disabled" associated to my disk.

Should I install the 10.7.3 combo update?

Hi,
I've just read many reports of users experiencing problems with OS X Lion 10.7.3 when installed from the software update. I successfully updated 5 Macs using this method (hence not from the combo update).
Should I install the combo update on top of my working 10.7.3 systems or should I just leave them as is?
Is Apple going to release some kind of patch in order to "unify" all 10.7.3 versions? (there was the original combo then a new combo and the delta update available from software update). If I understand correctly there were at least 2 differents builds of 10.7.3 that were made available to the general public.
Thanks.

My question as well......see my post.
