Apple Releases OS X 10.11.5 El Capitan With Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements

[jackth29]

Unfortunately nothing like that is mentioned in the update log but I really it fixes this issue. It's been annoying me for quite some time now...

I thought I was the only one until now. Just updated — hope I don't have anymore system crashes.

Has been released and I have downloaded same













What on earth are you guys doing to your system that causes issues ? Not with Yosemite or this current OS have I had any problems. Of course I don't fool around with things. Everything stock and all have worked well. Only downloaded app would be a weather app.

Great idea! Don't install those filthy applications on your computer! What would you need them for? Work? /s

I feel the same way. Unless these few actually did get a lemon of a Mac.

so will my rMBP finally shut down properly?

What used to happen?

 

[DRCain]

Any word on whether this fixes (or attempts to fix) the system freeze issues from 10.11.4 on 13" rMBPs?

I experienced only one instance of freezing in that manner on my 13" rMBP. the most recent beta for 10.11.5 apparently had not fixed the issue yet. I've only been running 10.11.5 for about an hour but I haven't had any freezes time will tell, also this thread. Sounds like some people fee that 10.11.5 beta 4 solved the issue for them, some people still seem to experience the freeze. Someone on the thread suggested that it was intel HD Graphics driver related.

Fine so far on a late 2011 15" Macbook Pro

Did 10.11.3 cause your display to shut off and then never wake back up?

Errr. No.

I click on things down in the dock and the spaces won't shift. I have to right-click and get OSX to show all windows for that particular application, then select on it.

It's becoming increasingly annoying. On top of that, iOS 9.3.2 is bricking iPads. Useless Apple.

 

[maverick28]

So the 10.11.5 update in the mid May. Will we get 10.11.6 till the 10.12 is released?

Scrolling in Safari is slightly smoother on my 2016 MB. Previously, any moving items would make it choppy. Now, it isn't nearly as bad. Not perfect, but better.

My 2015 iMac 5K is hanging on "Restarting" after installation with the progress bar at about 60%. Been stuck for the last 20 minutes.

Update: I hard powered it off and back on, and the installation resumed and completed normally.

Set your DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, I did this before and it showed up, and I am in the Netherlands too, had that happen to me before and setting the DNS to Googles DNS seems to always work.

Yup, that's what I have as permanent setting. No idea why it won't show up especially as the iMac had no problems.

 

[meduzarija]

Finishing download in a minute. Will report back, I will try to reproduce freeze since I think I found out what was causing it, to see if it's fixed. I'll be back in half an hour probably.

 

[Magnificenthack]

Anyone else actually experiencing this issue? If not, then its probably a hardware issue, not a software issue, if you think its a software issue, did you do a clean install and see if does the same thing? If you assumed its OS X without any real trouble-shooting and no else has a similar issue, perhaps its time to dig a little deeper..

[doublepost=1463429738][/doublepost]YES! - Although not on 10.11.5 as I had to downgrade to 10.11.3 to resolve. Thought my USB bus was going (late 2011 MBP). Stumbled across the freeze issue in 10.11.4. on the forum and tried downgrading "just in case". Problem solved by the earlier version. Now definitely not planning to upgrade to 10.11.5. In other words -- I don't think it's your hardware.

 

[meduzarija]

OK I am happy to report that I wasn't able to freeze my MacBook, at least for now... Yes it is early to report, and I am *NOT* saying that thing is def. fixed, BUT, I was able to reproduce freeze in like 5 minutes of Safari usage(on 10.11.4), and now I have used Safari under sam circumstances, launching more tabs and putting it in heavy load (same content that used to produce freeze), and things are running smoothly. It could be that I am too eager to report, but I will be testing it a little bit more next few days and I'll be sure to report here if I come to any conclusion.

P.S: and yeah, whole OS feels a bit snappier, don't know If I am trippin' or it's update-placebo-hype-gas that got me, it could be, but my typing used to lag a little bit in safari, scrolling too, now it feels much, much better. Oh well...

I really hope this fixes the Firewire audio glitches I've been having since upgrading to El Cap. I know Apple doesn't officially support Firewire anymore, but they shouldn't leave it with issues.

758 Megabytes on my Retina late-2013 MBP on 10.11.4.

907MB on 2015 13inch Macbook Pro

I bet no one has my issue.
I have Wi-Fi turned off in system preferences and my Wi-Fi will turn itself on randomly.
Can't figure out why or how to stop it from doing it.

I upgraded my MacPro5,1 from 10.11.4 to 10.11.5 via the combo updater without any issues. My MacBookPro8,3 froze on the reboot after the App Store upgrade, but after a forced shut-down, everything seems to be OK.

 

[ck2875]

It looks like 10.11.5 includes a version of Safari that's very similar to the build number that has been in the "Safari Technology Preview"....

10.11.5:

• Safari — Version 9.1.1 (11601.6.17)
• Safari Technology Preview v4 — Version 9.1.1 (11601.6.17, 11602.1.31)

10.11.4:

• Safari was Version 9.1 (11601.5.17.1)

 

[mbh1976]

I updated and 2 hours later my computer froze and the fan started going nuts. I restarted, praying it was just fluke

Do you still have this problem with 10.11.5? What Mac are you using?

 

[DesignerOnMac]

So no new iTunes yet?

Was a combo release today.

 

[arpi]

Anyone else actually experiencing this issue?

I have this issue rarely, sometimes on the login screen. I turn off/on the keyboard and it works then.

 

[SoyCapitanSoyCapitan]

Updated. Makes no difference to me as I had no real issue except that I can't delete side bar short cuts without restarting the Finder.

I have the same (or similar) issue with my keyboard when waking from sleep. Have had it in all versions of El Capitan with my Late 2013 15" macBook Pro. Others here and on the Apple discussion boards have reported it too, but it does not seem to be widespread. I think it may be a bluetooth issue.
