That doesn't specify anything. Those are minors.
Leopard, Snow Leopard and Jaguar all got a .8 release. Tiger got a .11. Panther a .9.Interesting .6 release, when was the last .6 release?
Ah, so you like an OS full of bugs. Got it.That doesn't specify anything. Those are minors.
Highly unlikely. There's no incitament for Apple for rewriting those things in Swift, as it is still a language under strong development.My sense is iOS, OSx, WatchOS, TvOS updates are in part, being rewritten in Swift. New Xcode development tools and improvement in Swift itself are part of Apple's development efforts going forward.
If my suggestion is true, this is a big deal -- a really big deal with the potential of exponential improvements in functionality, stability and cross-OS support.
Eh nope. I'm talking about major ones. I haven't encounter those bugs that was mentioned. I see that you probably experienced it. Got it.[doublepost=1465286555][/doublepost]

Well, get in in-line. There are probably hundreds of show-stopping bugs (just that each of them only affects a tiny fraction of users). Just because it doesn't fix your show-stopping bugs doesn't mean it doesn't fix other people's show-stopping bugs. And just because it doesn't fix any obvious bugs doesn't mean that if doesn't fix any bugs. Many bugs are either too random in their effects such that it is virtually impossible to attribute certain effects to them or too small (eg, they slow down an operation by 100 ms which nobody can notice but fixing 100 of them and some people can notice a difference in some operations).El Capitan keeps getting updated, but there are at least 3 major bugs, two of them VERY major (and have been reported by several users here independently) that I've reported and confirmed with Apple, but they've not been fixed.
So if these updates have zero user-facing changes and don't fix the showstopping stuff, what are they for? Is it to give the illusion that Apple is focusing their attention and resources on OS X? Because based on the last few years, I really doubt it.
You imply regression bugs in 10.11.5 (ie, bugs that only showed up with 10.11.5). My guess would be that 99% of all bugs fixed in an OS update aren't regression bugs. Otherwise you wouldn't move forward.Well yeah.. Nothing is perfect but I mean was there something huge that occurred with .5 that they needed to address? Or is this just another maintenance?
Nice info!Leopard, Snow Leopard and Jaguar all got a .8 release. Tiger got a .11. Panther a .9.
How did you fix Wifi with 10.11.6? Mine won't hook up or drops.I hope it fixes my wifi issue!![]()
I have MacOS Sierra now and still have WiFi glitches with the MacbookPro.. no issues from my Samsung phone or the iPads that we own. When I need to fix it, I turn wifi off then back on. Just happened to me 5 minutes ago.How did you fix Wifi with 10.11.6? Mine won't hook up or drops.
Thanks,
