OSX Sierra

And also Mac Office 2011? Any issues?

[WinstonWolf]

Two installs with Office 2016 x64 and both seem fine here.

This is the first OS my trusty MacBook Pro 17" isn't able to run. Feel a little sad.

No problems here. The update agents also work without a hitch.

A very safe update so far!

First bug...watching a youtube video (on chrome) and it randomly ends and goes back to the mac login screen requiring password.
When I log back in and open chrome it brings up the option to restore tabs due to not being shut down properly.

Anyone rushing out to buy the patented apple paper bAg yet?

So this update seems to have taken my kitchen iMac just over the 320gb available on my WD Passport for Time Machine, so I can't backup at the moment

Any recommendations for a 500GB/1TB drive to replace it? Cheaper the better

Prices on external hard drives seem to have stayed about the same over the last few months.
I'd be interested what people recommend.

Double the size at least for time machine?
Just bought a 4tb for 69. Using a 2tb for time machine.
Time machine will recycle tHe space I think.

No - but looks a logical and neat trick. Might try that later!

I'm getting Mail crashes when doing searches and then opening emails that have been found... Hmmmm. Need to narrow it down and look at Apple discussions to see if I'm not alone

Yes, first time.

It seems to be working fine on both my 2010 iMac and 2015 MacBook, I do need to check the iCloud documents settings though.

Anyone using VM Ware Fusion 6? Does it still work ok?

Anyone? Still waiting to update but can't if it's not compatible.

For anyone else who's interested. Fusion 6 is not compatible. Needed to update to Fusion 8.5.

Since the update, everything looks 'smaller' in Safari. On PH, for instance, all the fonts are smaller than before, too small for my eyesight. Can't find anywhere to make them bigger. Any ideas?
