OS CRASH - Mac OS X 10.4.9 Update Causing Ugly Crashes?

6 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/os-crash-mac-os-x-10-4-9-update-causing-ugly-crashes.52532/

There are a handful of Macintosh users who are suffering problems from the recent update to Mac OS X 10.4.9. Based on the comments in the blog entry below and the thread links provided, it isn’t an isolated incident, nor is it the same problem for everybody. The author, Pete Mortensen, warns his readers to possibly reconsider the update, based on the problems described to him. I would just advise to make a disk image or a backup to removable media, as with any service pack or equivalent release. Is this just the typical problems that users may experience with a fairly large update, or is it something more? Neowin members, if you own a Mac – have you updated, and if so, has the update gone smoothly, or do you have a story to tell?

well well i wonder what our MAC representatives on thinkdigit have to say to this couple this to the bug patch released recently talks of which are currently on in another thread

i hope the same doesnt happen wit 10.5 ... leopard. !!

....My heart is in my mouth. I close all running programs and start the installer. Does everything fine and goes in for a restart. I'm praying (even though I have proper backups). Takes 2 minutes to show the apple logo (usually 7-9 secs). Then that shows for about 3 minutes by which point I knew I had been screwed with. I knew I shouldn't have upgraded to 10.4.9. I was almost going to hold the power button when it started and everything went back to normal....10.4.9 (phew!).

haha....goobimama...some thriller story u have got with a happy ending too

i think any OS can go crazy that way if something goes wrong, why to blame MAC for that,
