I guess I'll be updating a bunch of Macs this week. So it it a full installer only for those of us running the GM?

 

[PBG4 Dude]

Almost there...
MAS downloaded the app, but the app still fails to download the OS...

Delete the file from your Applications folder and try again. This happened to many people, where they downloaded like a 19MB file instead of the 5.17GB file.

Yep, thanks, worked for me as well. Now downloading the full installer.

it's a clean install or update? I can see it on App Store, but not on App Store Update Tab.

Why do I keep downloading a 15 MB installer rather than the full 4 GB installer? Anyone else experiencing the same? Any tips?

Tried clearing AppStore cache and rebooting to no avail.

network weak, try on a better connection.

Note that the 2017 iMac, MacBook, and MacBook Pro changes something with USB-C, since some peripherals that were compatible with the 2015/2016 models are not compatible with the 2017.

AFAIK, this does not change with the High Sierra GM. It may be more a hardware issue.

Which monitor? Your monitor may fall into this affected category. Were you using it before with an older USB-C Mac?

PSA: If the description of a USB-C device doesn't explicitly say it is compatible with the 2017 Kaby Lake Macs, then there is a significant chance it isn't compatible, even if it compatible with older USB-C Macs.

It is the HP ENVY 27" USB-C, it worked perfectly in Sierra, and worked all the way up until the GM of High Sierra.

I'd like to know this too. I was expecting it to show up in the updates section

I put the link above in one of my posts on this page...


All done.


It DOES feel faster, I swear to GOD!!!!

I actually measured JavaScript speed in Safari 11 and it is indeed faster. But what made the most difference to me was the fact that auto-play is disabled, which not only makes for a pleasanter quieter experience, it uses less CPU cycles.

Plus, Metal 2 on supported machines.

I installed it on my Macbook Pro and iMac. The download and installation went as smoothly as butter. I haven't had time to do much with it as its been a rather eventful day.

on top of that I'm doing a late night software deployment for work, so I won't get to play with the OS until tomorrow evening.

For once I wish that I was a juvenile with no responsibilities so that I could try out my shiny new toy.

I got to sneak away to my Mac for a bit. This my favorite part of the update so far. Also known as - Eff u, CNET!

 

[N0ughtsAndCr0sses]

I upgraded yesterday, now I'm charging it to 100% and see how the battery is with the same stuff I do on a daily basis.


In case anyone's wondering
