TogaForComfort Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Just posted this in another thread, the retail disks are 10A432. I have been running it for the last few days and really like the refinements they have made, the have also improved how laptops connect to wireless networks afer waking from sleep, which was one of my biggest issues with 10.5. Found a few bugs here and there but thats to be expected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huy Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 your going by one guy who "says" it is 10a432 lolwhen there are crowds of people saying it I will be convinced Another person here saying 10A432. We're ahead in Australia so lots of people have the retail discs/up-to-date ones already. All the same build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TogaForComfort Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Another person here saying 10A432.We're ahead in Australia so lots of people have the retail discs/up-to-date ones already. All the same build. I work for an Apple reseller and have been seeting up 10.6 machines since wednesday in preperation for the Launch in our stores. I have installed about 20 machines so far, all the same build, all boxed retail disks. Anyother build numbers will be for machine specific disks (The grey ones that come with a new machine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stetson Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Never had a problem with that... ever since Panther WiFi connected right away. Under Leopard I have seen a few times where I will open up my Macbook and it won't connect to Wifi for a while or won't even show the wireless network as being available. I closed and reopened it and it found the network right away. Rare but a bit annoying when it did happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only had a few machines with it, but it would do it almost everytime the machine would wake up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 So guys, its confirmed that Quicktime X will not be release for Leopard and Windows? I will not be updating to SL anytime soon. Well Quicktime X is touted as a new feature for Snow Leopard, so it's unlikely to be released for Leopard. I wonder if copying the .app over would work though? As for Windows, well it depends whether Apple wants to compete with WMP more. Quicktime is crap on Windows and WMP12 supports .mov out of the box afaik so it might be a pointless move.

Quicktime is crap on Windows and WMP12 supports .mov out of the box afaik so it might be a pointless move. the architectures are incompatible, i just tried running quicktime player from my SL partition on my 10.5.8 OS X and it does not work. remember that Quicktime X is not just the Quicktime Player.app, it is a core framework of the OS similar to how webkit is to Safari. I still believe that Leopard might get some of the power and maybe the UI, Windows if anything might get only the UI and nothing more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Neo Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 SL being a hybrid OS is confusing for the average end user however it does make the "choice" and transition from 32bit to 64bit waaaaaaay easier. The average user doesn't even know what the kernel is. Let alone if it's running in 32 or 64-bit;);) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Helix Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 The average user doesn't even know what the kernel is. Let alone if it's running in 32 or 64-bit. ;) but they do know the terms 32-bit and 64-bit thanks to marketing, wether they understand it or not...........lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BajiRav Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 One of my cousin will be upgrading to Snow Leopard and she is not much of a power user. Is the upgrade smooth in click-next-click-next-install mode? I don't have a intel Mac to try it myself. I have asked her to back up :D but just wondering? The average user doesn't even know what the kernel is. Let alone if it's running in 32 or 64-bit. ;) They why does Apple need to advertise it to average user? :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Got it today from the Apple retail store, done an upgrade. Pretty good so far :).
