yeah, i'm having this problem too. I don't even have to play a tune -- just open iTunes and the whole machine freezes. Rare crashes and freezes aren't as rare any more
Traveling this week and made the mistake of updating before I left... have to learn my lesson the hardway I guess.
For the record, I used Software Update from 10.6.6 on a 2010 MBA 13" Ultimate .

I don't know if this is related to 10.6.7 or not but I synced my iPad and iPhone sequentially this morning and each time I checked a new box to sync a specific artist/playlist, iTunes froze for 30 seconds. Once the sync actually started, it was fine.
Just did a complete reinstall before I did this. 10.6.0 on my 2009 iMac and did the combo to 10.6.7.
Ever since the update to 10.6.7 when I load a CD or mount a disk, my desktop icons have changed to 24 x 24, although this is not a massive issue just strange. CMD+J to change them back.
this update killed my 2010 MBP
sat there for about 10 minutes and then displayed "The update couldn't be installed" error. Forced me to restart and never booted back up. Just sat at the gray screen forever. Well, more than an hour, before I decided to put it out of its misery. Reinstalled 10.6.3 from the disk. The 10.6.7 update still failed, but 10.6.6 did go through. Now some apps don't start (I only tried iPhoto before going to sleep). Crap, didn't expect anything like that from Apple - first time in 5 years that I'm having problems with OS. Not fun.

After reinstalling 10.6.3, did you use the Combo Update for 10.6.7?
Don't let it bother you....unless you express fawning adoration for all things Apple in every post you make you're automatically a troll.
Welcome to Macrumors!
On a topical note, I installed last night on my big iMac (pre-Metal enclosure) with no issues.

There is no point to implement in SL TRIM function when in 2 3month time this will be standard in Lion. You can wait couple of month i asuming
I hope too because i have same problem, SMB shares become sleepy and i cannot access them when computer go to sleep.

Anything about late 2010 iMac 27" noises and (in my case) squeaks. ?
Just asking..
what noises and squeaks ??
Hey neighbor i asuming you are on Ziggo
no, i actually just went to software update and let it do its thing.
i think what it actually did was installed the combo 10.6.6 and then install 10.6.7. will be playing with it tonight again
My battery only shows 3h of battery life (i have a new 2011 MBP) instead of before (more than 7h).. battery just dropped within 15minutes from 100% to 89% by doing nothing!..
Anyone else with this problem? Or any solution??

At the risk of getting flammed I'll add my 2c. Of course the combo update worked fine on a mbp, but also worked great on two hackintoshes. Thats win win for ya.
This broke my printer drivers (Canon Imagerunner C3170). I can now only print in the slower raster mode and not the default, quicker UFR mode.
I wish they had a combo update for the 2011 Macbook Pro. This makes module imaging a nightmare.
Have you installed the update by now? Did it remove the "unique" TRIM support? Or can anyone with a new MBP and SSD confirm TRIM support is still available?
Seems odd if they dropped support after 1 month with a general update on those devices.
Hasn't fixed my SDHC problem...
Hi.
Is anyone else experienceing this?
Device:
MBP 13" (early 2011) - the new one!
HOWEVER:
All current-line iMac and MBA do read the card (I tested these in-store).
Called Apple support and they say "I'm not alone", but can't tell me more.
The card is read perfectly well using a 35-1 media adaptor via USB on my MBP, and works perfectly well in my camera.
Go figure! I just hope it's nothing to do with Sandybridge! sigh...

Lucky. I have 16 Mb down / ? up here in the States through Comcast. I think the fastest connection for regular people Comcast offers is like 50 down, though for businesses get up to 100 Mbps. Kinda wish the US would improve its infrastructure more and not just go after profits.
