OSX 10.5.7 Finally Out, Last Stop to Snow Leopard!

apple server is getting pegged. If the DL pauses for long enough the DL hangs and the checksum is wrong so you get that dummy error. Keep trying or try the DL link in the first post.

Does the keyboard count as a powered USB hub? If so, then that's not really proof of DFU mode working since you could use DFU mode on Mac OS X 10.5.6 through a powered USB hub.

Just installed 10.5.7 And I have had no problems what so ever. All though I am using a brand new MacBook Pro, And 4gig 320HD model.. So I did not think I would have any. I am wondering about Itunes and such. I won't be upgrading Itunes anymore..

Iinstall the update will It wipe my mac clean or will I keep everything afterwards?

**cleanconscience** · 05-12-2009, 07:23 PM

Just installed on macbook 2ghz core duo. No problems. Can't speak for dfu mode, but syncing works fine, but install was quick 7 or 8 minutes. everything seems to work just peachy.

Just d/l & update everything seem to work just fine. 286MB

Ok, before I did the install, I tried using "Software Update", and it was saying it was going to take anywhere from 2-8 hours. WTF. SO i went to the Apple website, and downloaded it directly. Restarted and it stayed at the Blue screen w/ the "rotating loading circle" for about 20 minutes. I knew somethign was wrong, but didn't want to interrupt the installation process. Then I just gave up and restarted manually. Then it rebooted on it's on a couple of times. I log in and my custom theme was still there.

Normally I have to reinstall the files manually, but they were still there. Checks "About This Mac" and it was 10.5.7, so I guess I'm okay.

Did anybody running the 10.5.6 DFU fix upgraded? Any problem?

**imode** · 05-12-2009, 09:12 PM

I strongly suggest downloading the Combo Update. I did the delta update and ended up with a kernel panic (Gray Screen of Death) caused by a kernel extension version mismatch (AppleIntelPowerManagement). Fortunately I was able to upgrade my emergency OS on an external drive with the combo update and copy over the kernel extensions. Then I had to reapply the combo update to my main drive. Seems the delta update is causing people lots of grief.

Also, noticed that the IOUSBEthernet.kext was updated so I suspect this will fix the DFU issue people were having (haven't tried it yet)

^Hmmm, see I did the Delta and got the gray boo screen, rebooted twice and now everything is happy again.

**Poseidon79** · 05-12-2009, 09:36 PM

Updated through "Software Update"... everything went smooth and DFU works for me.

**ekidd** · 05-12-2009, 09:50 PM

I used the delta update and got a flashing blue/white screen. Stayed like that for a while so i decided to do a hard reset. After the hard reset i got the apple logo and the spinning wheel then it reseted by itself. It then got to the log in screen then resetted by itself one more time. Then, i got a real long boot up and everything seems to be okay. Now my MBP just takes longer to boot up. Should i dl the combo package and reinstall?

Unfortunately wasn't that easy for me... Removed the extension caches and rebooted about 4 times. System.kext (as well as some other extensions) were not updated which caused immediate kernel panics.

**A Retired Mod** · 05-12-2009, 10:12 PM

Updated through software updates too and used DFU mode with out in issue.

**marcoiac** · 05-12-2009, 10:40 PM

Used the combo update and had no issues. I was running 10.5.6 with DFU fix and have also lots of third party system mods. No issues at all. I would suggest the combo. I haven't heard anybody upgrading with the combo having problems
