Woohoo downloading now.

quartz2d extreme enabled in this build?

Not according to posts on Ars Technica's forums.

cover me! - I'm going in!

Strange, I thought they would have bundled the Intermediate Codec and DVD Player updates with this as well...

Just installed it, hit restart, walked out of the room for a few mins and when I came back...kernel panic...crashed. Up top the download says 37megs but mine was only 19.4 if that.

Otherwise so far so good. I had also opened iPhoto for the first time since downloading the codec last week and the slowdown seems to be gone.

The iCal icon still doesn't keep today's date after you quit. \

I just downloaded and installed it. The size was 36.3MB. Funny, the whole download and install process only took about 2 minutes and I'm on a wimpy 450MHz sawtooth G4. I'm now running 10.4.1.

(I noticed that it did not optimize after the install. Hope this is not a bad thing).

And it never will.

Just did it, not really any differance - Panther still felt snappier, but I think part of my problem ius bit rot, Il likely start over in the next few weeks if I get time.

Yes, so is everyone else in the world apparently. I get a timeout error.

Oh well, I can pick it up later when the new wears off and the other suc... uhh... people have had a chance to check it out first.

Well first impressions:

It's still stable.

Window resizing is faster than 10.4

H.264 playback is still not great on my Powerbook (I don't expect it to be) but it is smoother.

It's 'snappier' than 10.4 basically.

Haven't had a chance to see if the networking is any better however.

What have they fixed?

Address book - still buggy
now weather is buggy

I'll do a more extensive test tomorrow but for me address book is the same and weather worse - it stalled while i was typing (even though they didn't touch it)

seems fine...except...

when i am in Finder, my Apple menu is horked. It was definitely not like this before the reboot. Its fine in any other application. eeek.

UPDATE: ran macjanitor (all scripts), restarted and didn't fidget around on reboot when it was opening widgets and finder like I did before. Problem is gone.

but this was oooogly.

Fine for me here. Try a restart.

Of course like everyone else I want to know if this update creats any more problems. My dad needs his computer now and it's really critical for his work.

Is Quartz Extreme 2D not being enabled why why the framerate on expose is so choppy on my mac G4 since the 10.4 update? did apple disable it when they updated from panther to tiger?

Ok, it broke my ability to watch HD movies from Gametrailers.com. The quicktime symbol comes up with a question mark. Frustrating to say the least.

So far, so good on my iBook G4 1GHz... feels a bit snappier than 10.4 but I can't quantify the performance difference.

Why not?

(not being snarky, just want to understand your comment.)

Memory usage appears to be down as well... MenuMeters is reporting 198MB used with Mail, Dashboard, iTunes, MSN Messenger, and Safari active.

Yes, QE2D was disabled in 10.4.0. It is reenabled by the ATI and NVIDIA driver update for most cards that support Core Image as of 10.4.1, according to ARS.

As for the larger issue of whether or not to do an upgrade during mission-critical project work on deadline, the usual answer is NEVER, unless something required for the project is currently borked and clearly fixed by the update.
If the project is critical and the machine performs adequately now, don't risk any hiccoughs until the deadline has passed.

Just my .02, but I've seen many a tearful student complain that they "only" updated some component or unrelated plug-in the night before deadline, and yet it's "not their fault" that their project was incomplete or lost as a result. Pity doesn't pay for mistakes.

10.4.1 Installed OK for my rev A 2x2.0 GHz G5. Quartz Debug doesn't show QE2D as active for my ATI 9800 Pro (OEM) GPU.

Considering I feel that my GPU has been flakey as of late, I'm somewhat glad its not active yet.

At any rate, 10.4.1 installed without a hitch on this G5 as well as my Ti PowerBook. I'll report any problems...

I saw Software Update optimize the drive on both machines I installed it on, so I don't know what happened with you.

My slow 500 MHz Ti took a good amount of time to boot up after the update. The Activity Monitor reported various md* processes eating up CPU cycles... my guess is that it was updating metadata and indexes while booting.

cause it violates apple's UI sensibilities to have apps in the dock do anything or have any functionality when the app isn't actually open. if the app isn't open then it is just a symbolic link/icon/alias/whatever you want to call it.

And yet my iCal, on 10.3.9, retains the last known date when it is quit.

Right now, it says '16', since I quit it before midnight.

I launch it, *quit it again*, and it says '17'.

On 10.4.1 iCal keeps the date in the dock icon after it has quit.

Don't know why yours isnt?

Probably because it's the 17th, and you're not seeing that it's reverting back to July from May.

Nope. Mine says May 17th, plain as day, and it's not running.

Maybe some of you guys are confusing the word quit with reboot/logout.

iCal keeps the date in the dock even if you quit but it resets to July 17 everytime you shut down the computer.

Ah, see, I do that about once every two months, so it's entirely possible I don't catch that.

I don't see comments for the Dashboard hole. Has it been corrected or not?

I am new to this argument and for me, the iCal icon returns to Jul 17 after I quit iCal. This was true for 10.4.0 and 10.4.1. In 10.3.9 the icon remained set to the day when it was quit.

I just confirmed this behavior on a second machine. iCal's icon reverts to Jul 17 after quit.

If you logout or restart... its Jul 17, just like after a full startup after shutdown.

Yep. It's an icon, not an app.

The Address Book widget still seems to not be consistently enclosing the Area Code in parentheses, even when everything appears properly in the Address Book itself.

For those who think QE2D is now enabled, how can we tell? I've certainly not noticed any GUI improvements. Resizing windows is still stuttery on my new PowerBook.

quicktime go down... quicktime no go up

I click the minimize (orange) button on the window and the quicktime movie genies down into the dock, I go to the dock and click on the quicktime movie and it won't come up... I end up having to quit quicktime.

i had this in 10.4 try using the Window menu and selecting the movie that way.

iCal does change back to July 17th when you quit - this is a change from Panther

Address book is still dodgy - if you type in a name and then click on the number and go out of dashboard when you go back in Address book will not allow you to type.

iTunes widget still lags.

I haven't noticed any improvement - in fact it seems slower at booting.
