Crossing fingers for my 2013 MacPro 12 core with the D700's.

Don't need social networking...

Stability, compatibility is what I need most!

FINALLY! My work iMac (late 2012 27") has been suffering from this bug for a really long time. It seemed like it had briefly gone away for a month or two this Spring but came back several weeks ago. Every time I would bring the system back up, it would also turn off iCloud Document Sync which would make all of my Coda 2 sites disappear. It is literally the worst bug I've ever had with a Mac and nearly drove me crazy having to login again and try to pick up where I left off each time.

Sleep has been bad for me, unmounting drives incorrectly and when waking up it would just be a black screen, almost like the monitor wasn't turning on.

The thick of it
I'll be interested to see if this fixes a recent intermittent issue with my Mac Pro, where upon booting the screen looks like a Magic Eye drawing and the system is frozen. If not, it's off to the Genius Bar...

OK, where is the 10.9.4 Combo update? I have searched for it and come up with nothing. Strange.

Any word if this fixes the issues with the 2013 MacPro 12 core with the two D700. Adobe Premiere is displaying pink lines when exporting.

Wifi is much SNAPPIER !

I believe that this may have fixed all of the lagging wifi connectivity issues I had with my iMac. Have been using the update for just an hour or so, but immediately this feels much faster and more reliable, Does anyone else agree ?

No 10.9.4 download

I too cannot find it. I have three Macs to update and I don’t want to download it three times via the App Store. Only 10.9.3 is shown. Come on Apple wake up!

Does this fix the issue where USB drives are unmounted when waking from sleep? For example, you have a USB drive connected, close the lid/sleep, then on wake there's a message in the upper right corner that the drive was improperly disconnected?

Thanks

I am also interested in the combo update, but the size shouldn't be a problem. On my iMac it was 35MB and on my rMBP a little less than 100MB.

After updating to 10.9.4, the display on my 13" lappy somehow changed to "Scaled" so I had a weird wide-screen resolution meant for a huge monitor. Had to put it back to "Best for Display"

Other than that... everything else seems to check out.

Safari still loads up till a certain point and loads completely after like 5 seconds.
I hope Yosemite will fix this bug.
