left it at work, it is a mid-2010 MBP 17".
it looked like it stayed on the integrated card even with previously offending apps like fantastical. Yay.
For the person who has the issue, it's not obscure. 10.8.3 repaired compatibility with NEC's Spectraview calibration software which was huge for me. Also, the fix was not listed in the release document. 10.8.4 probably fixes more things than you think.
For those with third-party SSD's how did the update affect your TRIM enabler's?
When I updated to 10.8.3 I had to re-enable TRIM on the iMac and MBP. At the time I was using Groth's on both and when I updated the MBP Groth's stopped working, wouldn't turn on TRIM. I installed Chameleon's SSD Optimizer and it was able to turn TRIM back on.
Today both the iMac (Groth's) and MBP (Chameleon) kept TRIM enabled after the 10.8.4 update.
I always enable TRIM support by hand (by modifying the kext file using a hex editor) after each update. I just updated to 10.8.4 and this time the TRIM support remained enabled. My update file size was only 152 MB.
We have 2 of those in our household and I have never seen any issues like you are describing. I highly doubt that a software upgrade will fix this. Sounds more like some hardware issues you are having.
Oh FFS
1. Copy and paste works perfectly. IT'S NOT A FAULT. Why change for the sake of changing?
2. And? Why is that important. It isn't and you can't do it for the same reason you can't customise the appearance beyond blue and graphite. Apple don't do customisation in that way.
3. OK We finally have an issue! This is a fault and you should report it using apple.com/feedback
4. And another issue. Again report it.
5. iTunes is not updated by this update. It's updated separately. It always has been, it always will be
6. Don't have this issue unless something needs saving. In which case I'm grateful it hasn't shut down.
7. Not an issue. My iMac boots up just fine. Is your HD nearly full?
I did. Not sure this is the cause as I'm having multiple issues after the fact. What did you do to remove said files?
So your mouse cursor only disappears in Photoshop and this is Apple's problem?
Try Adobe.
Hmm, maybe this will finally take care of the issue where Calendar freezes for the first minute or so after I open it because it's "Updating..." with my Exchange calendar. And maybe it will take care of the fact that hitting "Snooze" on any Exchange alarm breaks the event and makes Calendar complain about it until you fix something. Or maybe it will take care of the fact that not all "location" fields need to be matched with Exchange resources.
But I'm not holding my breath. I'm contemplating just using Outlook and removing my Exchange calendar from the Calendar app on OS X.
Bleh, I had my dock customised with unsanity77's mod, and this update broke compatibility. I guess I'll be downgrading tomorrow.
My quick notes (iMac 27" '09)
-Trim support on my Samsung 830 stayed enabled.
-Shutdown times are greatly improved.
-I don't know if Messages stays in order, but even after wiping the database some notifications still don't show up on my Mac. (Before the update this meant they would later appear out of order.)

Damn it. Looks like I'll have to pass on the opportunity to buy a significantly discounted 15" Retina. I tested it on 10.8.3 and the UI lag is very noticeable - just opening system profiler and going from one tab to other made me unhappy.
Question - does the lag persist if you use something like gfxCardStatus app and switch to Nvidia GPU only? I am wondering if it is hardware or software - no point in buying current gen if hardware is the culprit and Apple probably will never fix the lag. Haswell GPU is supposed to be much better so may be that will be answer.
Oh god, yes! This has been annoying me so much lately. I have to resize the columns almost every time I look for files.
I have had NO issues with any of my Apple computers since 2006. I'd imagine you're one of the 0.1% who is running some particular software causing some issue. My computers are not slow at all, very speedy. Even my 2006 MacBook is running fine.
Even though YOU are having problems, the silent majority of us are very happy and pleased.

(under settings there is an option to auto resize based on longest filename)
How ever it is pathetic that apple just do not want to fix simple things that obviously makes life so much easier for everyone... hence why the windows platform has had them since the early 90s
somewhat side note, it also annoys me how when apple then do give in and add simple things 15 years late, they manage to label them to the world as ground breaking "new features".
Anyway, luckily there is a small tool for nearly every strange "why can't I?" in OSX these days.
