Drobo dashboard osx el capitan3/13/2023 If somebody loses their patience or perhaps they are reminded of an older install that crashed, bar any feedback, they could be tempted to interrupt the firmware update attempting to recover from a “crash”. The problem with the status quo, and what makes it so dangerous, is that there is ZERO user feedback. Just blinking a light (could be the caps lock key for portable Macs) would be good enough. I think Howard’s post again serves as a reminder just how helpful it would be if Apple had some kind of indicator to tell the user that, despite a black screen for prolonged periods of time, their Mac was still updating its firmware and to just be patient. And personally, that does really bug me because I will most likely want to get a new MBP soon and then Catalina will have to be dealt with one way or another. Precisely because I know how restrained they are with such warnings against “moving ahead”, I take their cautions re: Catalina quite seriously. are known to resist change or advise people to hold off because of change, but IIRC they have cautioned users several times about potentially severe mail issues if you use Mail.app and decide to go Catalina. The majority of users have are not seeing any issues, but many are unhappy with some of the new featuresĪpologies if I’m reading this all wrong, but to me that almost makes it sound like most Catalina issues are just folks having trouble to adjust.īut if I take just what has been discussed here on TidBITS I’d say many users have suffered from mail issues (some as serious as actual loss) and it’s these persistent issues without fixes from Apple (despite how many updates now?) that are causing much of the upset and Catalina remorse, not few superficial changes that might take getting adjusted to (64 bit was well announced and most came prepared). Otherwise, you can wait until it’s convenient-as you’ll see in the comments, a few people have anecdotally had problems with it. If you’ve already installed macOS 10.15.4 and are likely to run into any of the bugs it fixes, it’s probably worth installing this update soon. On his Eclectic Light Company blog, Howard Oakley said, “This is the smallest macOS update that I have ever analysed in detail, suggesting that those bugs were severe in their effects.” You can install the 1.01 GB macOS 10.15.4 Supplemental Update from System Preferences > Software Update. The supplemental update has no published CVE entries.
