Apple Releases macOS Catalina 10.15.1 Update With New Emoji and AirPods Pro Support

[BarredOwl]

Catalina NEVER, or NEVER Catalina.

Whichever you prefer.

 

[Brevecht]

Same here...finally started to install now.

Ok, I see it started installing at yours now...

Hope that will change soon here too...

Still showing the 1 minute remaining 🤦‍♂️

I think 10.16 they need to rename to emojiOS.

Post of the day. Bravo!

Right. Like adding new emojis leads to instability. Your argument makes no sense whatsoever.

you don't get it obviously.....

adding emojis takes resources from apple....that could otherwise be used to fix their OS

4.5GB coming....

I have been on the 1 minute remaining for the past 20 minutes now

After having read about cases where the Catalina ROM (?) update completely bricked iMacs from 2013 and others (with Apple telling the owners that this is not covered by them), I'm even not sure about THAT anymore ...

yes the last update bricked my 2017 mac book pro so i guess i'm safe from this one as i can't install it

 

[kissmo]

Emoji?? Really??
Dear Apfel Strudel.... please fix GPU drivers, slow boot time and

 

[shinji]

"Less than a minute remaining" turned into "About 2 minutes remaining."

Been that way for about 10 minutes now...

 

[metalsiren]

yea for me it was downloading fast but now its crawling.....

 

[dan9700]

Do we really need 3 emojis per person I mean Apple plz focus on major issues with the Mac

Has the download stalled for anyone? not sure if their servers are down.

 

[whsbuss]

Download took forever, it’s finally done and installing now.

Still at 3.07gb

 

[RFolk]

Is Catalina the worst OS version to date ? Just curios. It seems that every patch release is focusing on everything else but stability and bugs fixing.

Still at 3.07gb

Mine too, stuck at 3.07gb . server may be down?

 

[MacRS4]

Didn't take that long.

 

[bnw99]

Wondering if it will fix the equalizer issue in Apple Music?

This! Its the most annoying thing ever. I reported it to Apple a week ago, but who knows.

"Less than a minute remaining" turned into "About 2 minutes remaining."

Been that way for about 10 minutes now...

Same for me.

I find it comical that Apple takes the time to point out that "over 70" new emoji's have been added to the release (and even give said update its own section in the announcement!).

It really gives you a sense of where Apple's priorities are these days... is there an emoji for that?

You do realize that Apple is simply complying with the unicode emoji standard…

 

[Clix Pix]

Still saying "less than a minute remaining" here but I doubt that since it's now been the longest "less than a minute" in history! I"m just leaving it alone and it'll finish downloading when it is good and ready.....

 

[tywebb13]

Build number is 19B88.

I've been using the app "Boom" in the mean time. It's a nice app but is not perfect and every once and a while it will drop out for a second or two. Using it for Apple Music as well as Spotify. Hoping for the best.

 

[triptolemus]

Right. Like adding new emojis leads to instability.

Of course it doesn't, but why can't they just update in align with the Unicode standard...quietly? Why is that the first item in the feature set?

It's utterly ridiculous.

So your theory is that Apple is pulling software and hardware engineers off other projects to draw Emoji?

ya, makes PERFECT sense.
