On the new 10.4.7 update

I just installed the new 10.4.7 update; always happy to install a new update. After I booted back up I entered my login information and hit enter. The whole interface loaded so quickly I was astonished. Very little delay in loading up after login. Beyond that, applications are clearly snappy, especially with multiple apps open and being navigated\used. Spotlight seems...no IS lighting fast compared to before when it was merely supersonic.
This is exactly the sort of post I would attribute to an over excited Mac user, as so many of us are. Clearly I am imagining it or otherwise exaggerating, right?
I saw nothing in the update that I would attribute to this. Maybe it's just because it's been ages since my last reboot?
Any one else notice a difference after installing the 10.4.7 update? Of any kind?

William Cornelius,
Yes, I believe that's a big part of it. I do that and have never had an issue. However, I do not use any computer while it's doing an update, either. I know that's really not necessary, but it's only a few minutes. I've always got something else I can do. In addition, nothing external is plugged in - and that's easy too, as my printer is now wireless and just sits there all by its lonesome.

  • The new ACR 5.5 update will not install in Elements 7.0

    Hello All:
    This situation is now becoming ridiculous (well, for me that is).  I just tried to install the new ACR 5.5 update and it is "unable to install" into Elements 7.0.  I downloaded the update several times, unzipped the install file, but when trying to install, it just gives me a message that it is unable to install and to hit the "quit" button.
    I have a Vista 64 Bit system with 12 Gigs of RAM.  I've installed Elements 7.0 and Lightroom 2.5 on my system - all with no problems.  For some reason, I could never get Photoshop CS-4 to install at all and I've been through the mill trying to install Photoshop - but nothing worked and had to eventually give up.  Trying to get Adobe support for CS installation on my 64 Bit system has been ridiculous in this regard as each and every time I called, I was connected with some techrep located in India who all they did was "parrot" back what I told them - how frustrating.  But as I mentioned, Elements 7.0 and Lightroom installed just fine.
    The previous ACR 5.4 installed just fine into Elements, but now...ACR 5.5 will not install.  It tells me that I do NOT have CS-4 installed so it cannot install.  What's up with that? Has Adobe stopped supporting the latest ACR upgrades for Elements?  What gives?
    Does anybody just have just the newest ACR 5.5 plug-in by itself that they can send me so I can just put it in my plug-ins folder (or a place where I can download it)?  Adobe used to just have the plug-in that you could unzip and copy and paste and put it into your plug-in folders - but not anymore.  Now they make it an 82 Meg install program and thus some of my problems.
    Can anybody help here?  Why does the install program look for CS-4, yet overlook Elements 7.0 completely.  Helpppppppppp.

    Hi Benherrmann,
    Sorry to listen that you havent been able to install the Camera Raw 5.5 plugin.
    But as far as my knowledge goes for PSE, PSE never lists Camera Raw plugin for updates in the Updater Preferences dialog i.e., if you will launch Help->Check for updates, a updater window will open. If you will check the preferences of that updater dialog, it will tell you that it never checks for updates for Camera Raw plugin unlike what happens in Mac. In Mac Camera Raw updates does get installs just by installing PSE(v6 of course as there is no PSE7 for Mac. Hopefully there will be a v8 for Mac by the end of october as seen in the last release).
    Dont know exact reason why Adobe had configured it in that way? why there is some difference between Win and Mac.
    So it prompts me that somehow you need to install Ps CS4 on the machine to get the patch installation through updater. Although this is not Ps forum, would you mind telling what error/issues are you facing while installing Ps CS4?
    Regards,
    Ankush

  • Will the new 10.6.8 update fix SATA3 issues related with 2011 MacBook Pros?

    Will the new 10.6.8 update fix SATA3 issues related with 2011 MacBook Pros?

    It is against TOU to speculate on these message board.  Suggest you post your question on the Mac Rumors site.
    As I already stated, there is no 10.6.8 update.  If there was, it would be listed in Software Update.

    Keep in mind the requirements to download iTunes 11.1:
    Macintosh System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel Core processor
    OS X version 10.6.8 or later
    400MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
    And
    Windows System Requirements
    PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    400MB of available disk space

    after the new os x software update i cant watch cnet videos or cnn videos

    Hello Abel.
    Welcome to the user to user Apple Support forums.
    I have tired Safari and Firefox on CNN and the video seems to load just fine, also there isn't any widespread issue. So I'm thinking this is a specific issue to your machine.
    I don't know why the videos are not playing, I'm assuming you have a fast enough Internet connection, but we can try a few things like installing any and all codecs and running some maintainence and repair functions that might clear the issue up.
    Install the software at these two locations and reboot your machine, see if the site works.
    Perian (installs additional Quicktime codecs)
    FlipForMac (Windows media in Quicktime)
    You'll likely come across media that requires these codecs eventually so for all intensive purposes it's eliminating a possiblity.
    Also I just noticed the CNN site uses Flash, please update your Flash player plug-in here
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Please bookmark these sites for later use, Flash get updated often.

    Go here http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1582, download the update file and run it. Ideally, start up in Safe Mode when you do the update.

    Just a thought, try using the search feature of these forums, this issue has been addressed multiple times.  Also, it's faster than other user's asking you to provide more details of the actual issue.

    Upgrading to Mavericks
    You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later

             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.

    cannot re enable the add ons after the new 13.0.1 update ,it shows no update available and all the add-ons are disabled

    I have the same problem. One minute everything was okay, the next minute all my addons were disabled.

    I can reenable them but FF will disable them on the next startup. I uninstalled version 13 and installed version 12. Problem gone! So I'm still using version 12 and am afraid to update to version 13.
    This problem began when I was trying to research and fix a problem (no history all-of-a-sudden) so it probably was something I caused. Can't recall everything I did though.
    So: Does the addon problem I described have a solution? If so, I'll update my version 12 to version 13. Please respond.....

  • Hi, i'm a new member of this community. I've recently learn about flashback malware and other threats to Mac devices. I've installed the new Mac OS X update for Lion 10.7, and the flashback removal tool. what about the update for Flash Player?

    Hi,
    i'm a new member of this community. I've recently learn about flashback malware and other threats to Mac devices. I've installed the new Mac OS X update for Lion 10.7, and the flashback removal tool. What about the update for Flash Player? Should i install it? Otherwise, should i permanently remove this app?
    I realy need some advice.
    Thank's to all.

    Be sure to install the latest version of Safari (version 5.1.7) which is available via Software Update (in the Apple menu) if you have not already installed it. This update will automatically disable older versions of Flash when new versions are available, and will instruct you on how to install the latest version on your system. This should help keep your system safe from any vulnerabilities in Flash.
    Note that this is only useful if you use Safari, though other browsers have their own update mechanisms you should research and enable or configure to your liking.
