I'm so much happier now that I have language support for Catalan, Croatian, Greek, Hebrew, Romanian, Slovak, Thai, and Ukrainian.

Thanks Apple, that was so well waiting for. And before anyone accuses me of being a cynic, that was top of the list of issues addressed by 10.7.3

Not everyone on this planet speaks English as a primary language. In fact, you'll find that the majority don't.

Of course! More languages = more $$$. That is without question at the top of Apple's list. ;)

Kidding aside, it's disturbing that general stability of software seems to become a "feature" in and of itself that's added -- if ever -- much, much later in the lifecycle.

FTFY
 
I installed the update from Software Update on my Late 2011 MBP. It's working fine. Has anyone had an issue with a 2011 product or are all the problems with 2010 and older hardware?
 
Installed after repair disk and permissions MBP mid 2009, havent noticed any difference so far. I didnt have any problems to start with though apart from the backlit keyboard not working but that was from when i installed new ram.
 
Anyone else see this?

"Snappier"?

I don't know about you folks, maybe I am momentarily off the the apple-is-great spell, but my MBP is NOTICEABLY slower and less 'snappier' than ever before (2.7Ghz, i7, 8Gb RAM), loading the OS from the start takes at least 8-10 seconds more, and after log in, the redraw of the icons (about 15) on the desktop is ridiculously slow (3-4 seconds), overall not impressed at all.

I have a Mid-2009 MBP as well. Check the connection for the keyboard, you might have bumped it loose when putting in RAM.

As for Lion functionality. I've had numerous issues since upgrading to Lion. Some have been slightly corrected with updates some have not. My ambient light sensor no longer works, longer boot times, more beach balls of death, and lots of system hangs.

I will note that I tried to run disk utility after latest update and it told me to run it on boot up as the disk needed to be repaired. There was both disk volume count errors and about 25 incorrect permissions settings to be repaired. After the repairs it runs a little smoother and faster and the fans aren't screaming at full speed as much as before, but ambient light sensor still not working.

So perhaps a good disk utility (from system disc or boot) will help some of the other issues. Can't say I had the weird text image crashing problems
 
My bad, I used "minoritary" in the same sense used for "minoritary shareholders" - originally, "minority" is only a substantive, so I wanted to emphasize the term above as an adjective applied to those languages (call it a neologism if you will)...

So it can be "minority languages" for you, OK? ;)
I think the issue is that no one got it. Good try though.

Now that I'm updating I can say on an older white MacBook launchpad is noticeably less choppy. I can say that it's actually somewhat smooth. I never had the choppy problem with Mission Control so I can't speak to that being smoother.

So far I haven't had any crashes (Safari would crash a few times an hour for no reason even with no extensions) but I haven't been using it long. I'm currently testing to see if Time Machine still kills my network when it's running (I'm using a sparse bundle to connect to an external drive on my file server). So far so good.

[EDIT]
Safari still crashes like a champ.

The TM bug seems to be fixed. I haven't had it choke my network yet.

Believe me when I say that every Romanian, who uses a Mac or a PC, does speak English, because that was the only language available on Windows XP. I really don't see anybody using the Romanian language in Mac OS X, maybe new users, but how many could that be? This update should've addressed more serious problems.
 
Can't believe all the people having issues with Lion in this thread. Besides the CUI CUI CUI error, which is an actual problem. (Or just complaining about feature requests, most of the time).

There is a way to troubleshoot your issues, you know.

1. Do a clean install.
2. Don't restore anything from a Time Machine Backup. Manually copy and paste your documents to your new install.
3. Install your applications one by one, restarting your computer and going awhile without installing another one to note any performance changes.
4. Identify the problem app.
 
Serious PPC / Rosetta Issues on 10.6 Snow Leopard

I can verify and replicate that Lotus Notes and MailWatch DO NOT work in 10.6 anyone after the update.

Both cause the following error: CallPPCFunctionAtAddressInt

I used deploystudio to go reimage, tested apps ok, installed security update again, apps broke, on 3 different Macs.

If you need PPC / Rosetta support STAY AWAY!

You must be joking...Lion has never supported PPC or Rosetta. :rolleyes:
 
Still making the icons in icon-view is broken when enlarging with the slider button. Ridiculous. In Snow Leopard I could even enlarging with the pinch gesture on the trackpad…
 
Not good!

Software Update apparently took me to the Combo download (it was the 1.2 GB version). Awful! Could not open any apps; screwy-looking CUI on the buttons, etc. I did a Time Machine full system restore back to 10.7.2, but don't know what else to do other than to not update to this version. I hope they fix it soon!

MBP mid 2009
 
SMB is still broken on both sides...

Zero improvements in SMB:
1. Finder shows "red" minus sign on NAS SMB shares/folders.
2. Enable SMB sharing with Windows is not functional (windows users could not access mac shares), until this option is disabled and enabled after fresh boot.

Everything else seems to work as it used to, may be a bit slower...

I updated my 2010 iMac with the combo update about an hour ago and all seems to be running well.

I had no issues during or after installation and no application crashes to report so far.
 
The only change I can see after updating my system is significantly increased amount of heat which my MacBook has to deal with. I don't know how about you, but CPU heated up to 75°C while running nothing but Mail, Safari and iTunes does NOT seem OK to me.
 
instant on back?

Does anyone know if they brought back "real" instant-on on laptops such as the MBA with this update?
