Apple Releases Mac OS X 10.6.2

[*LTD*]

Done installing. Might take a while, so don't be alarmed. All seems well.

Looks like no changes to Magic Mouse gestures except for (I assume) native support.

Safari feels snappier.

I'm waiting until 10.8.2

9CC2 issue FIXED

I'm happy to report the 9CC2 panel bug is fixed in 10.6.2!

The brightness setting now goes smoothly all the way down. When on minimum brightness (just one notch above turning the backlight off) I get almost 8 hours of battery life reported in the battery indicator, at 90%. In 10.6.1 this would be less than 5 hours, because of the increased brightness and the assorted energy consumption.

Worth updating for this reason alone (for me).

Don't see the fixes list include the AirPort and Flash Player slow down problems in the new iMacs...

• this update addresses video playback and performance issues for iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009) and iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) computers that may occur in some situations while AirPort is turned on

I don't see any Tiger security update?

Oh, that's right. You may have bought it brand new two years ago, but it's 'obsolete' today.

"ay us again!"

You do know that things are obsolete the minute you buy them right?

Same, took a while to install.

Safari does seems a little snappier too.

It fixed all my Maya issues so I'm very happy. Time to update my main desktop machine

 

[Eidorian]

Any luck with fixing the web browser issues with the Open/Save dialog box?

The best $25 you will have ever spent toward upgrading a Mac.

9CC2 panel issue is better, if not fixed, for me =

I just hope it fixes an issue I've had with my iMac 27" with the screensaver turning off after coming on for a few seconds, showing the "Enter Password" dialog (as I have that enabled in Security Preferences), and making it so I can't reliably have my machine go to sleep at night or over weekends.

It would be awesome if so...

Do you have SSH enabled? Port 21 or 22 open on your router? Whenever you get pinged it wakes your screen. Drives me nuts.

I liked this message when restarting:

"Software Update Canceled restart"

Are Energy Saver profiles back? Haven't updated yet, and won't rush if they aren't.

Despite that I did rush, and the answer is no. I so miss this feature!

Thanks! Done downloading. Installing starts now...

I'm curious, why is my update 157.7MB and others are 500MB?
My Mac is a Mac Pro3,1, can anyone shed some light on this? I'm on 10.6.1.

MobileMe

me.com has improved, more smooth. idisk... not at all, slow slow. anyone else notice this?

 

[pknz]

Hopefully SL is moving out of beta phase now ...

It has been out of Beta stage for some time now.

Finally, some bug fixes are here.

There were bugs fixed in 10.6.1 also.

Maybe 10.6.3 will be a good update. I'll still wait.

Who said 10.6.2 wasn't a good update?

Different machines have different requirements that require either the combo or delta updates depending on what system you have and what you are upgrading from...

The vast majority of people get the smaller update but sometimes you require the bigger one if your system needs it.

Looks like I'll have something to do after work!
