General link to info on update not working for me. My question: What's "updated" in Safari?

Luca · 2004-11-05, 16:37

Hopefully they've disabled the debug code and really made Safari snappier.

SKMDC · 2004-11-05, 16:39

safari is 1.2.4 (v125.11)

Actually, Safari would get a fair bit snappier if Apple would fix that stupid animated GIF bug.

I have a fresh installation on my new PowerBook, so what the hell, no important data to lose.

I'll test the fruit for the tribe.

Brad · 2004-11-05, 16:51

Actually, I'm doing a whole slew of updates on my tower that I've been putting off and decided to jump on the 10.3.6 one too.

If course, I have so much to download and install, it'll probably be another 15 minutes before it's done.

Brad · 2004-11-05, 17:02

How very bizarre! When it finished installing and rebooted, I was presented with the registration screen.

Quagmire · 2004-11-05, 17:13

It is a small update size wise. A whopping 14 MB reporting here. Still installing here.

alcimedes · 2004-11-05, 17:21

downloaded and installed on a G4 powerbook, and a dual G5. so far everything's fine, and OpenGL based games still work.

Moogs · 2004-11-05, 17:32

So far so good here as well. Not that I was having a tremendous amount of trouble before. :smokey:

HowardG · 2004-11-05, 17:39

Hrrm. Mine rebooted and is now STUCK at the Boot Screen stage of "Login Window starting" prompt

Doing a Repair Permissions to see if I can get it back up.

murbot · 2004-11-05, 18:04

My PowerBook is at least 3 times faster now.

BuonRotto · 2004-11-05, 18:15

Mine burst into flames.

Oh, wait, that was my toaster.

It is obvious that software update likes my computer configuration better than yours.

onlyafterdark · 2004-11-05, 19:17

After I installed the update, my PB locked up after the login page. Its the first time this has ever happened to me after a system update. Im going to do a permission repair and see whats going on. Everything else seems to be working tho.

curiousuburb · 2004-11-05, 19:40

So far, so good... iBook500 seems to like it fine.

thegelding · 2004-11-05, 19:52

I'm updating the prebinding, but application launch has become horribly long. I think it was 12 bounces for iChat!

SilentEchoes · 2004-11-05, 20:31

My computer froze while installing it, then the machine would not boot.

First time an update has ever gone wrong for me.

kretara · 2004-11-05, 20:56

I installed earlier today on a Dual G4 500 and everything worked just fine.
Starting on my PowerBook now.
Wish me luck.

Ryan · 2004-11-05, 21:15

Sounds like I'll hold off on my Powerbook, but I'm taking the plunge with my eMac. Will report on Monday(gone tomorrow, Marine Band on Sunday in SF).

kretara · 2004-11-05, 21:32

Everything fine here on a PB 12" 1.33

psmith2.0 · 2004-11-05, 22:07

Everything is totally fine here, too, on a 15" 1.25GHz PowerBook. I can't tell any difference, which is sometimes all you want.

MCQ · 2004-11-05, 22:35

Seems good here on a 12" PB Rev. B

scratt · 2004-11-05, 23:00

A *cough* "friend' of mines computer had a load of *cough* "pre-release" Apple *cough* stuff on it and he told me that it stopped those apps working.. Poor guy!

It also did nothing for my G5 which still boots up 3 times out of 5 at max processor speeds because the SystemUIserver is trying to solve all the worlds folding@home / SETI@home and cancer algorithms, or something all at the same time! I swear to God one of these days the top of one of my processors is going to ping off!!

Moogs · 2004-11-05, 23:17

Did he*cough* have a copy of*cough*Motion1.5/2.0running on that machine*cough*?
