Don't just tap the button, press and hold it for a bit.
A little bit blanks the screen, a little bit more brings up the shutdown options dialog.
Intermittant Dock icons disappearing is NOT fixed with this update (PRAM and Terminal Cmd still fix it but only temporarily). Come on Apple!!!
Yep. Not so helpful for someone with an iOS7-compatible device wanting to update to 6.1.6, but some of us aren't in that category.
As I've already said earlier, it's been disabled on mine since day 1.

Nope. Even done a clean reinstall of Mavericks. Still happening. It's driving me insane. Don't know what to do. Also, because so random, it's hard to replicate the issue when I decide to take my Mac to Genius Bar.

No, it interrupts my typing and loads the most random website.
For example, before I even finish typing twitter.com, it suddenly loads google search page for letter t. WTH!!
It has twice as many pixels
Sweet. My cMBP must have got a software update to enable retina.
Right. I think a number of comments about being able to update iOS 6 are mostly related to devices that still have it but are compatible with iOS 7, so to get the latest security fix they can only go to iOS 7 rather than get the iOS 6 update that exists for the issue.
While this is true for MacBooks with keyboard power buttons, the older MBPs and MBAs with aluminium buttons in the top case do not exhibit this changed behavior with OS X 10.9.2. I updated a late-2009 MBA, for example, and the power/sleep functionality is the same as with OS X 10.9-10.9.1. I guess there is less risk of accidentally pressing the power button when going for the Delete key.
Anyone else witness this?
Thanks. Yes, I was aware of it, but Cisco released it in a cloud of warnings that it was just a temporary work around, the workaround could cause other issues, and was likely to be rescinded as soon as Apple released an update-- so I figured it wasn't worth lobbying for.
Note to posterity: this may be an Apple bug, but I still hold Cisco responsible for not making proper use of the beta period and identifying this problem before Mavericks went GM. This happens far too often with Cisco's clients.
Has anybody else noticed that the scaled resolutions have smoother animations (Mission Control etc.) when the Dock is set to the left or right of screen than the best for retina default?
FWIW, I'm very impressed with the 10.9.2 Iris Pro graphics drivers - much, much better than before.

you are not being rude at all!
its a fair question!
but, i don't want the update installer, i want to download the OsX installer
But it worked yesterday so i got it
MITM attacks can defeat SSL even without this bug if the user doesn't manually verify the certificate credentials by looking at the organizations name attributed to the certificate. This can be done using ettercap in combination with SSLstrip and other programs for such activities.
Even then a cross site scripting vulnerability in a client side app, such as the browser, which are found all the time can allow SSL credentials to be compromised via the ever so common phishing emails.
Most users don't know how to adequately protect themselves from those types of compromises so the presence of this issue doesn't really make unknowledgeable users less secure anyway.
This doesn't mean that this issue shouldn't be treated seriously but it isn't the end of the world that the media is making it out to be.

Hmmmm, I still have the "File couldn't be copied because it is in use" error when copying to a SMB share. And it comes with this error at the END of copying after I waited some time. Annoying.
Animations still get choppy just after a couple of days of using the Mac (Changing spaces and Mission Control). Was hoping for a fix in 10.9.2 but it didn't work. Like before, only a restart fixes the problem temporarily. I'm on a Macbook Pro 13" mid-2010.
Anyone else having this issue on the same Macbook model?

Im having the same issue when i plug/unplug my led cinema display, i think disabling the clamshell mode (terminal command sudo nvram boot-args="iog=0x0") is causing this but i need to use the display with the mbp open.
I have the same computer than you
Hello!
Thank you for all the information on this thread. I am a complete amateur and I have a (hopefully) basic question.
Reading this thread has indicated that Chrome and Firefox uses a different library, is this correct? Would this be the same case for the Opera browser? I am using that and have been using that for my e-mail and such. Could someone give more information about this and how this works?
Sorry to ask this question on this thread! I really appreciate any kind of information about this. Thanks!
