Apple Releases OS X 10.11 El Capitan With Improved Spotlight Search, Enhanced Performance, and Revamped Apps

[HobeSoundDarryl]

Pages is working fine for me, but there is a thread about it in the El Cap forum and apparently my experience is not universal. The share menu doesn't work though, but this occurred in Yosemite as well.

And you mean Pages 09, not the "new" and "improved" version of Pages that stripped out the DTP side of Pages '09, right? It's that DTP side that matters most, so I need the former version of Pages to work well or I have to consider making a separate boot drive of the "as is" before considering this OS X upgrade. Thanks for any clarification.

I wonder if Public Beta testers will get the release build.

If you follow the link in the story it takes you to the info page, then click the link there and it takes you to the App Store page. Click the Download button there and it asks you if you wan to download it since you already have El Capitan. I said yes and it is downloading to the /Applications folder. (Gonna put it on a memory stick and clean install.)

I'm running 10.11 Beta (15A278b). It says 'no updates available'.

 

[GadgetBen]

Is this the same as the latest public beta build?

If so its the worst version I have tested of all the betas. My iCloud folders are crashing constantly.

Open up the App store and "purchase" the released version, then install it.

Should we download the whole thing? Or wait for a GM -> Final update?

It's up, I had to search "el capitan" though.

Good advice, thanks from The UK

There won't be an update. Download the full installer.

This worked for me. Thanks!

SEARCH....people...SEARCH "el capitan"

Yup, searched "El Capitan", and begun the download up here in Canada. I don't think Apple prompts the regular user to download the update until after eager users are done hogging the server bandwidth lol.

Wasn't seeing as an update in Mac Store, but the link is working.
Downloading now...

 

[james126]

Downloading now. *Crosses Fingers* that this update fixes the lag on my 27 inch retina 5k iMac.

 

[Steviejobz]

Stop downloading people! You're slowing my speed.

 

[anyjungleinguy]

Good speed here. Pulling 5 MB/s.

Open up the App store and "purchase" the released version, then install it.

Fresh install and then restore data, or just running the App Store updater?

 

[Thunderhawks]

Not seeing it in the App Store.

Probably already pulled as it is a few hours old!

 

[partyfart]

Is see this version is build 15A284, while the GM version 15A282b. Will there be an developer update or do i need to install this 15A284 version?

 

[Thunderhawks]

Oh hello el capitan. It's a pleasure to finally meet you.

Yes, better than the Cocinero.

 

[jmille44]

Where is the COMBO UPDATE ?

 

[djang0]

Anyone got the direct link to the installer (not in the App Store) yet?

There is no such link outside the app store to download OS X... or am I mistaken?

 

[n-evo]

Queue the downloading now comments....

Don't forget people telling us their download file sizes.

 

[Johnczech]
