Just updated not too long ago with the combo update after reading other issues with the standard update. The update didn't have any problems and everything seems to be god so far here.

The update appears to have gone through ok for me except for one thing. Each time, I bring the iMac out of sleep, WiFi is NOT connected. I didn't have this problem before 10.7.3. I just rebooted the iMac and so I'll see if it happens again.

Thanks! I think it looks kind of silly. Why is the finger angled to the left?

I don?t know ! But I?ve tried to do it with my real hand, and it?s not very ergonomic !

*sigh* It's merely giving you the illusion that the index finger is slightly curved down...

Well, it still happens. My WiFi stays disconnected now (post 10.7.3) after waking from sleep. I have to go to WiFi and click on my network for it to connect. I didn't have this issue before the update. This update was supposed to fix the problem it caused me. Lol. I tried forgetting the network and removing WiFi and re-adding everything and that didn't solve anything. So I'll have to put in a call to AppleCare.

Did you install the combo update? cause that's what i downloaded and now it's fixed.

I installed all the updates that were available in "software update".

use the combo update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1484 it has been noted that many users are experiencing issues only using the delta upgrades http://osxdaily.com/2012/02/01/fix-mac-os-x-10-7-3-update-problems-cui-errors-stuck-installs-and-crashes/

The download link does not work. Neither does the links provided at osxdaily. I've noticed that a lot. Everytime I click on an Apple support link, its a bad link.

I had to go to apple.com, click on support and click on downloads to get that update.

I'm really beginning to think something is wrong when almost every Apple KB article link I come across comes up as bad.

yeah it's something wrong on their side cause it's been happening a lot lately.

Was kinda hoping for a larger Changelog as I found 10.7.2 to still not compare with 10.6.8. But the System does feel snappier. I imagine a lot has changed behind the scenes that none of us know about.

Will test the new SMB Optimisations this weekend.

As I am speaking, my Finder has crashed and relaunching it doesn?t work well. *sigh*

It?s been like this since at least Snow Leopard, maybe even Leopard, even with a clean install and a different computer. I guess they will never fix that. :/

Edit : Ok, so Right click on Finder and Relaunch never worked. But the Apple Menu > Force Quit and clicking Force Quit 20 times has worked.

Woah, just randomly noticed that the vectorized cursors are finally working properly in 10.7.3. They're showing up in Safari and YouTube videos as they should be, nice and crisp. Minor, I know, but it's nice to see it "only" took three point releases to fix the issue.

EDIT: Pointless post, looks like it already got mentioned. Sorry.

At least they fixed it. With previous Mac OS X version you had to wait until the next major new version came around. That said Microsoft doesn't really fix anything interface related in their service packs.

Well, doing the combo update seemed to have fixed my WiFi issue. I can now let my iMac sleep and it will re-connect automatically on wake-up. I just find it odd that, I never had the WiFi issue before the update and the update comes along to "fix" that issue and for me, instead of just leaving all as it is, it gives me the problem it was meant to fix. Lol weird.

Ya, my dad gets that on his iMac now. He had the ocassional error pre 10.7.3 but seems to get it all the time after sleep now. I did the combo update, but I might rerun it after downloading the "b" version.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Microsoft finally admits its default Windows 11 25H2, 24H2 action broke key legacy component by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. So far the company has acknowledged two known issues that have popped up after the release which include bugged-out Office apps as well as the Recycle Bin; though there could be more at play too. Speaking of bugs and issues, Microsoft seems to have finally acknowledged a problem that probably has been around for close to a year. That's because back in July of 2025 the company made a default change to the latest Windows 11 versions, wherein it switched to JScript9Legacy on Windows 11 24H2 and later releases. Hence following the release of version 25H2 in October 2025, JScript9Legacy also remained default-enabled. As a result there has been a compatibility issue ever since then. For those wondering, by switching to JScript9Legacy Microsoft intended to improve the security of modern Windows PCs by reducing vulnerabilities tied to legacy scripting like cross-site scripting (XSS), among others. XSS exploits can allow cyber-attackers to attach malicious code onto legitimate websites and use them to execute the code when a potential victim loads such a website. Hence the new JScript9Legacy engine enforced stricter execution policies and improved object handling, which should help mitigate such attacks. Microsoft today has published a new support article detailing the problem. Neowin spotted it while browsing. The company says that JScript global definitions and execution context may fail to persist across scripts, potentially breaking older dependent apps and web-based components that relied on this legacy behavior. In the article Microsoft has confirmed that the issue stems from its move away from the older jscript9.dll engine in favor of jscript9legacy.dll. As mentioned above, while the newer engine was designed to address vulnerabilities and strengthen security it also changes how JScript handles execution context. As a result functions and definitions loaded by one script could no longer remain available to subsequent scripts once execution ended. The company notes that some applications worked correctly on earlier Windows versions because the older JScript engine automatically retained global definitions and execution state between scripts. Under the newer model though that behavior is disabled by default causing certain legacy workloads and polyfill-dependent scripts to fail. Microsoft says it addressed the problem via the KB5077241 update though the fix had not been enabled automatically in the following updates. As such admins must explicitly turn on persistent JScript execution context using a Registry setting that the tech giant shared today. The configuration can be applied to individual processes or system-wide through the FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE registry key. The steps have been outlined below: Run the following command to create the feature control registry key: reg add "HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_ENABLE_PERSISTENCE" Under this key, create a new DWORD (32-bit) value. Configure the value as follows: To enable persistence for specific processes only: Set the value to 1 for each target process name. To enable persistence for all processes: Add * as the key name and set its value to 1. You can find the official support article here on Microsoft's website.
