New problem: running Disk Utility with an encrypted Time Machine backup disk connected via USB-C causes Disk Utility to crash instantly. Previously it crashed the MBP, so it's half fixed at least.
Got a tip for us?

Unfortunately you are missing the point. Emojis and other gimmicks mean absolutely nothing to the Real Mac user. Only to those who treat a Mac like a fashion accessory.
Mac users come under two categories
1) Those who purchase a Mac as a tool.
2) Those who purchase a Mac as a fashion accessory
Unfortunately there are far too many that belong in the latter category and it is because of that Apple has lost focus on the REAL Mac user.
LOL, nice straw man. A person can't apparently be 1 and 2? No possible other options at all...
My point is a 2012 MacBook Pro running Mavericks is no less productive than a 2016 MacBook Pro with all the bling running Sierra.
Have you tried disabling scroll acceleration?
I had similar issue with some no-name mouse - retarded acceleration curves that Apple invents was reporting fraction
lines on slow scrolling, causes no scroll at all. Setting:
defaults write .GlobalPreferences com.apple.scrollwheel.scaling -1
fixed the issue.
Oh yeah I forgot there is a third. Those who purchase a Mac to brag "I've got a Mac" when their only intention is to run Windows.
You know its 2016 when every OS update, whether Apple or not, have ****ing Emoji in the headline.
This is Microsoft Clippy's revenge.

Does anyone know if they've changed the SMB/AFP connection authentication method yet.
In all previous versions of OSX credentials for connecting to a network drive could be stored in keychain. Sierra completely screwed that and now I have staff complaining because they're getting constant login prompts for their server shares.

Well I downloaded the Combo:

About 2GB........no problems......so far working just fine
But enough about Boltjames
I need to know two things:
1. Does this AGAIN re-enable "Optimize storage" in iCloud preferences?
2. Does Photos still take weeks to do face detection when you don't store the full quality photos on your computer? (Or, pray tell, does the data sync between computers now? Naah, forget I asked that.)
Exactly my thoughts.... If Apple looses me as a MacOS user they loose an iPhone/iPad user as well.
You know what...after I posted, I decided to do another Google search (I've done several on the issue in the past few weeks). Today, I found a thread that mentioned typing that into Terminal and I've been pondering whether I'd give Sierra another shot. Now, after reading your post, I think I will go ahead and update to Sierra again and then I'll enter that into Terminal. Thank you!
I guess my system got some sort of firmware update. Early 2011 17" MacBook Pro. Recently labeled as obsolete.
Well, I tried to install this update on my new MBP 15+ touch bar. Halfway through the installation, it rebooted to a black screen and just sat that way forever. I force restarted with the power button and it rebooted to a screen that said "15 minutes remaining" and then completed the installation.
All seems OK now, but I get really nervous having to force restart in the middle of an installation.
[doublepost=1481667185][/doublepost]System Integrity Protection still shows "disabled" on my MBP too. I thought this was fixed in this update.

If you use Avira antivirus: disable on scan access. This will fix the issue. It is an Avira issue, not a Macos issue.
Sadly not that simple as I don't use that. No AV at all. I just keep everything patched and use Little Snitch to monitor what programs are trying to talk in or out.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
I synced a movie from iTunes to my iPad(iOS 10.2) with no problem before I knew there was an update .
Does your iPad have Videos app?
Mine doesn't as it got removed on its own. And I cannot download it from the App Store.
