Apparently Apple decided to test how much their servers and bandwith pipes could handle at one time. Releasing a new iOS and a new OS X on the same day, that's ballsy.

Maybe they're trying to figure out who to blame for that amazing keynote stream.

i have now Safari 7.1 ....

Helped the WIFI dropping(s) on a MB Air 2013

Safari is so snappy that it snaps all the time.

Wow - after upgrading, I just lost all my Gmail emails that were in OSX Mail. Gmail that I use in Postbox was not affected.


WTF.

 

[bigandtasty]

always love seeing os x related news!

 

[Serban]

anybody else has Safari 7.1 instead of 7.0.6?

 

[macenied]

Maybe it's just me, Safari 7.0.6 came with the Mavericks 10.9.5 upgrade. After that Safari 7.1 was available for update.

That was my experience too. And Safari really does feel snappier (all jokes aside).

Mavericks is my favourite OS X version thus far. Followed by Tiger. Not upgrading to Yosemite anytime soon.

Very wrong attitude. Update is always good especially in Mac land.

Sadly, not since Lion...

TRIM Support

Just a friendly remainder - if you use a non-Apple SSD in your OS X System you need to enable TRIM Support again ( as with every OS X upgrade / update ). For me, the Chameleon Tool ( Beta Version ), released for OS X 10.9.4 worked fine.

Unless you have an SSD with built-in garbage collection (like my Crucial M4) since that won't work nicely with forcing TRIM to be enabled.

10.9.5 is rock solid for me.

Cannot comment on this - AFAIK most of the modern SSD's ( I have a Corsair GT ) have built in garbage collection. Corsair recommends TRIM though.

My point has been that the "TRIM support" - enable - setting gets lost due to the upgrade / update.

I have Yosemite Public Beta running on a 2012 MacBook Pro test machine. Fresh install. I'm not happy *at all* with Yosemite. It's huge steps backwards in terms of a refined and elegant interface. Far too bright. And that damn "Happy Finder" is so annoying and cartoonish. I really feel that it needs to be a more humble smile like it's always been. No need to make it high on sugar.

i dunno what they did to their server but i downloaded everything today in matter of minutes. a year ago and year before that it took me hours and hours. so they made something right..

My experience was the exact opposite today. OS X and the AppleTV updates took hours!

 

[Lancer]

Feels snappier

How long until 10.10?

 

[Michaelgtrusa]

Hey it just updated me too Safari 7.1!

That's correct

 

[macenied]

... OS X and the AppleTV updates took hours!

Currently using a slow WIFI:

iOS 8 -> iPhone 5 < 30 minutes ( using iTunes )
iOS 8 -> iPad 4 < 30 minutes ( using iTunes )
OS X 10.9.5 -> MacBook Pro 13" mid 2010 < 10 minutes

 

[Aniseedvan]

Interesting, have you all with slow wifi done everything possible to diagnose the issues????

Last month I thought I had that issue but my husband was having problems too, he's running a late 2011 i7 13"MPB maxed out and i'm running the mid 2014 retina 15"mbp maxed out, but turns out the storms in NYC affected wifi towers, once they solved that, our wifi has never been this blazing fast and efficient.

I haven't updated to this new update yet but currently at 10.9.4 and wifi is blazing fast - actually faster than it's ever been in fact.


Good luck everyone!

I LOVE u ALL!

It's not so much slow wifi as no wifi at all, it just drops off, but says it's still connected. I've noticed it more acutely on this rMBP than my older Air but it's still there to an extent. iOS, PCs and Android devices on the same connection are all fine. You have to stop and restart wifi for it to come back. I really hope this will fix it. I'm on a pretty stable 80/20 connection here.

So, after automatically restarting the download twice (at 139k after 20 minutes and at c300k after another 25 minutes); projecting that it would take three days, Software Update eventually decides enough is enough...

 

[allanfries]

I think this update actually fixed my bluetooth issue.

2012 Mac Pro and 3 2013 MacMini's all updated super fast. But the pair of 2009 iMac's are having super slow update downloads... Every machine was on 10.9.4 before, and the updates all started around the same time. Interesting. Update is only 136MB also...

Im experiencing the same with my 2011 MBP. It says 9 hours to download 275 Mb
