Apple Releases macOS Sierra With Siri, Apple Pay, Apple Watch Unlock, Universal Clipboard, and More

If we had the GM2 install 16A323, do we need to reinstall this final version or are we okay?

Great. Now it is 11 hours 40 minutes! Come on, I’ve asked you to stop downloading…!

Pause and resume the download, most of the times download speeds will improve greatly.

So glad to not have this OCD anymore. Now, just update the damn thing and move on with my life. So much more relaxing.

Naa. I feel like a fresh install helps my MacBook to keep running at maximum speed now it's getting on a bit. Flush out the hidden files and the stuff uninstalled apps always leave behind. I don't mind doing it, it's a pretty easy process and doesn't take too long at all. At the end of it my MacBook feels brand new.

Just like with iOS 10, I'll wait for the inevitable bug reports.

I don't have courage to install 10.12. I am waiting for 10.12.1.

 

[trekkie604]

ehh, you guys go first. I'll wait for the inevitable trouble threads

 

[Thunderhawks]

Anyone figure out why I can't load this on a 2009 MBP but I can load it on a 2009 MB?

I thought 2008 was the cut off, which leaves out my trusted 17" MBP (Sob)

 

[4God]

There's a Safari update for El Cap too.

 

[PilotWoo]

I don't have courage to install 10.12. I am waiting for 10.12.1.

Remove your headphone jack.

1 day, 18 hours...and I'm in Palo Alto. I could walk over and pick up a copy faster.

Its not showing up on my mac for some reason

No way in hell I'm putting this on my mid 2010 MBP. I need it to keep chugging on until Apple decides to finally blow our skirt up with a new MBP.

I have it on mine and it works great considering I have a Solid State Hybrid Drive.

i consider myself lucky that I did not have a problem when i installed ios 10 tuesday morning. I will not take the risk with my Mac. I will wait a couple days to let the dust settle and feedback from immediate adopters.

 

[snakes-]

i loaded it half hour before over manually search in appstore

Anyone going to upgrade their macbook air 2011?

Maybe after an SSD upgrade. Can't even free up enough for the installer on the 64GB.

 

[JackieInCo]

Alright folks, if you haven't learned from last week - you might want to wait a little before downloading. And definitely backup your system with Time Machine or a cloning solution.

I waited almost six months before I upgraded my 2015 MBP and 2012 MBP. My 2012 Mini still hasn't upgraded.

I'm waiting a few months at least this time.

 

[TMRJIJ]

I'm out. Still using and enjoying my early 2008 24" 3.04GHz iMac running OS X El Capitan (10.11).

2008 Mac Pro.

We can help you with that, if you want?

while I agree, I cannot bother reinstalling every piece of software and corresponding plug ins, recalibrating preferences and so on and so forth.

I can't believe noone has checked this yet.

 

[iamtheonlyone4ever]

cat "/Applications/Install macOS Sierra.app/Contents/Info.plist" | grep -A 1 DTSDKBuild
<key>DTSDKBuild</key>
<string>16A322</string>

edit: ignore this, apparently this isn't a reliable way of extracting the build number..

to get mac os build version # simply do this
go to about this mac
go to system report
go to software
and look at system version

Downloading now. 15 minute d/l on east coast. Didn't show in the update tab, so I searched for sierra and there it was.

 

[Pahanda]

My 2008MBP won't get this update
Time for Apple to release new MBPs!

 

[darkweather]

If it isn't showing in updates tab, just search for Sierra in the Mac App Store and download that.

it is not showing in updates tab, and it's seen already "downloaded" in the app store...

 

[Thunderhawks]

I have to put this customary comment in...... but is safari snappier?

Depends on which porn site you go!
