OS X 10.8.3 Build 12D78 Seeded to Developers - Page 2

jwm · Mar 12, 2013, 01:07 PM

I wonder what the initial adoption rate of 10.9 will look like....... If it takes this long to get widespread issues fixed, I'm probably going to wait for 10.9.3 before upgrading.

parish · Mar 12, 2013, 01:07 PM

Hmm, judging by the number of betas I wonder if this "10.8.3" really 10.9 in disguise

Northgrove · Mar 12, 2013, 01:10 PM

I will laugh so hard if they discover problems with this update soon after the release.

Sayer · Mar 12, 2013, 01:10 PM

Scumbag Apple:

Seeds 13 (or more) 10.8.3 dev builds, ships final version with massive hardware/performance/data deletion bug that no one ran across in previous 13 (or more) dev builds.

Could happen.

coder12 · Mar 12, 2013, 01:12 PM

Considering how much the last build fixed, I'm hoping this will have the same results.

It's worth the wait!

jwm · Mar 12, 2013, 01:13 PM

What's the big deal in trying to fix everything in one release. If they have fixes for bugs in past and present beta releases, why don'y they just release them.

I don't care if the have releases every week, improving the performance of Apple hardware/software should be Apple's goal here, not doing it all in one release.

What about the slooow shutdown times??
Has that issue been fixed?
I hope in a positive answer from you... beta tester guys!!!

Bye,
Andrea

You should make that a meme

That's what I thought after seeing this article poping up :-)

wlossw · Mar 12, 2013, 01:17 PM

I logged on to check 10.8.3 news... Not the News I was expecting. I laughed so hard when I read that headline!

TheTissot11 · Mar 12, 2013, 01:17 PM

It looks like either Apple has got no real software engineers or they have just discovered 1000 more bugs in ML. In any case, I want to hear something from ignoramus Apple fanboys who wouldn't waste a single second to assert that 10.8.2 is most stable release ever! I'm getting crazy over this beta stuff. WTF! Why sell a new OS when you can't even fix the bugs in the current OS. What was the point to release ML and announce to release a new OS every year. If Lion was continuously developed and supported that would have a far better experience than ML. **** you Apple!

rikscha · Mar 12, 2013, 01:18 PM

Does this fix the rmbp? Would be great! I paid a lot of cash for it and it still lags like hell.

Shrink · Mar 12, 2013, 01:19 PM

WOW!

The fine art of whining has reached a new zenith!

I would definitely not buy 10.9. Maybe I wait until they release 10.10! (If they could ever!) With this rate of progress, it looks like Apple is going on Microsoft path!

I've been patiently waiting since December 2012 for 10.8.3 that could fix all the issues I have with my rMBP. But does Apple care? I don't think so.

Risco · Mar 12, 2013, 01:22 PM

There has to be something more to it. I reckon there are some big internal arguments going on.

I have zero lags issues with my rMBP, did you take it to Apple to be checked?

Orlandoech.com · Mar 12, 2013, 01:25 PM

Apple only cares about iOS and iToys

jwm · Mar 12, 2013, 01:26 PM

And the ball-ache in all this is that it's not just a software issue, it's an everyday hardware issue that is affecting a lot of Mac users.

My rMBP shuts down very quickly when I ask it to (10.8.2).

I imagine that when you ask OS X to shut down, it will ask each running process to gracefully shutdown if it can, then issue a kill command if the process fails to terminate after more than a 'reasonable' amount of time has elapsed.

This, of course, depends on the software that you have installed, what processes are running, and what they are doing at the time. All of these factors, amongst others, can affect how long it will take your machine to actually power-down.

daneoni · Mar 12, 2013, 01:32 PM

You guys are hilariously insufferable.

If Apple rushes out the update then you moan that QC is down and no one tested the software before release. If Apple takes its time prepping an update then you cry that its taking too long, they suck, and only care about iOS.

I mean seriously...

iFitzgerald · Mar 12, 2013, 01:34 PM

I've been begging for this update to come, yet, week after week it's just another beta that has been seeded do the developers. It's frustrating!
On one hand I want it to be a solid update and if they really are polishing it, then I understand the need to wait, but on the other hand, I really want to see if this will fix the issues on my MacBook Pro.

smulji · Mar 12, 2013, 01:36 PM

That's it, I'm switching to Android!

But I don't it, it has been seeded with no know-issues quite a few times already, why isn't it out already?!

Maybe it'll be released at WWDC
