Apple Releases OS X 10.8.3 With Mac App Store Gift Card Camera Redemption and Boot Camp Enhancements

[HenryDJP]

Wait, is this OS X news on the front page? I'm confused. I thought this was iOS Rumors :p

Really? I'm out of the loop. I thought this site was for Non-Apple products.

What's the difference between the regular download and the combo download?

 

[Badagri]

Yes. It disables shut down.

Skynet has taken over!

 

[HenryDJP]

Windows 8 would suck on a Mac, since there's no touch screen

It doesn't suck any less on a PC.

 

[Rogzilla]

I hope this fixes the weird graphics bugs I've been getting for a while on my 13" MBP 2009. Scrolling in Safari on Full screen can cause a weird clipping issue that freezes my computer and requires a hard restart.

 

[ihuman:D]

Holy crap! Now that this has happened, my money's on the PowerBook G5 being released tomorrow

But tomorrow's Friday!!! It has to be a Tuesday!!!

What's the difference between the regular download and the combo download?

delta 10.8.2 -> 10.8.3
combo 10.8, 10.8.1, 10.8.2 -> 10.8.3

 

[rami.g]

delta 10.8.2 -> 10.8.3
combo 10.8, 10.8.1, 10.8.2 -> 10.8.3

Thanks.

Does it recognise your password? Mine doesn't.

same here, 10.8.2. same with safari or chrome

 

[HenryDJP]

I've not been able to access any iCloud services since installing these updates.
Is anyone else having these problems?

Nope, everything works fine after the update.

 

[AMDeeb]

ONLY Apple

"With 13 different beta seeds for developers, OS X 10.8.3 spent three and a half months in testing before seeing a public release."
​

ONLY Apple can release 13 different beta seeds for a software update .. We had an INCREDIBLE momentum, our developers just CANT stop testing..

are there new NVIDIA graphics driver with improved performance?

 

[Baklava]

Yah, when they invent software that doesn't need any memory, you will be notified.

Gratulations for the lousiest comment 2013.

 

[kushari]

Nope - have restarted five times - all the same (slower).

Try running onyx

are there new NVIDIA graphics driver with improved performance?

I know that there *ARE* new NVIDIA drivers but I haven't tested performance yet. They mostly add a subset of OpenGL 3.3 features on supported hardware. PM me if you want the tech details.

 

[BigJohno]

Can anyone confirm mac pro running 600 series nvidia cards works with 10.8.3?

I've not been able to access any iCloud services since installing these updates.
Is anyone else having these problems?

Same problem here. iOS logs in fine. Mail and Safari on the mac cannot login...it doesn't recognize my password. Changed password. Still doesn't work.

 

[madsci954]

What good timing, I got my iTunes card in the mail today and tried camera code redemption. It works fast and flawless.

 

[DJTaurus]

iCloud doesn't recognize my password

Guys just try to sign out and the sign in...

 

[mikeorchard]

Has anyone installed the update with windows 8 already installed on boot camp, if so any issues?

Just updated now, downloading the Windows Support drivers to see if they're any different from the last ones. Having already setup Bootcamp makes no difference.

 

[danzzz777]

i've updated from the app-store, and for the last 15 minutes i'm in the gray screen with the rotating loading animation.

should it take that long?

the thing is that just before restarting the computer for the update i've had a LAN failure, and finder itself was stuck canceling a 50GB file transfer...

obviously, i'm scared to power off manually...

any tips?

 

[kushari]

This update has made my shutdown time WORSE (by about 10 seconds).

try running onyx

 

[judgejohn82]

same here, 10.8.2. same with safari or chrome

Same here, getting the following error message from Fantastical

 

[Squilly]

With the compatibility of Windows 8, I'll bet the next Mac has touch screen capabilities.

Messages isn't recognizing my AIM mac.com account, keeps saying my password is wrong.
