I'm not seeing much difference. I'm curious what has changed in Safari.

Great minds think alike, Keith...

So basically no one will notice a difference. I was curious if there would be anything we would notice. Oftentimes there will be small changes notices after updates like this that don't make the release notes. Guess not this time around.

Like you, I haven't noticed anything to this point.

Facebook seems to be scrolling better...

I’m just happy that I can reply from the address to which the original message was sent without having to manually enter it. About freaking time.

That.Is.All.
Carry. On.

Anybody else having the update be really slow to download?

I had other app updates that came down fast so I know it's not my connection.

Yeah. It took over 35 minutes to DL then about 15 to install.

I updated shortly after Keith posted that there was one and the download & installation went fairly quick. I can only assume that a majority of people are currently updating.

 

[kch50428]

My download has actually timed out several times and right now says over 7 hours to finish.

Try the direct download instead of software update: OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.3 (Combo)

Fixing that 'audio stutter' was helpful...now I don't feel like Mel Tillis anymore

Question. When I downloaded the update it was 548Mb, JustMeD's screen shot had the update at 249Mb and karenkcoulter's post stated 800Mb. Why the huge differences in file size? Just curious.

I'm still waiting for them to add back the ability to use all our photos in the screen saver instead of only a single folder.
