Apple releases MacBook Pro Software Update 1.0

We don't have a whole lot to go on for this one, but Apple has released MacBook pro Software Update 1.0. What's in it, you ask? Well, it "provides important bug fixes and is recommended for all 2.2/2.4GHz MacBook Pro models" (the most current ones available as of this writing). Sorry folks, but that's all the update page says. If you don't see this in Software Update, head on over to said update page and get to updatin'.

If that wasn't bad enough, when I do get it to work and clicked on a drop-down, the drop-down menu starts rolling (up) everytime I try to scroll down...then it becomes "possessed" - really. If I am lucky and can finally get the curser to click on the Apple to try to shutdown and get to the shutdown drop-down. It won't let me click on shutdown now, and starts making pumping error noises. Yikes!!! I took it to the Genius Bar last Friday and they replaced the "top deck"...thinking this fixed the problem I brought it home yesterday and afer almost 40 minutes of wonderful bliss thinking the problem was fixed. All the issues come back again.
Oh yes, and this is my personal favorite....when I was able to click into google to try to do a search to see if others had just some of these problems...it typed in the letters BACKWARDS, as in SDRAWKCAB....oh yes...no lie!!!
This is my first Mac and I have pampered it, installed all upgrades to keep it current...no liquids within 10' of it, really have only used the photo features, Adobe Photoshop, Safari, and iChat - Don't even have any iTunes downloaded, nor use most of the other programs factory installed.
I am so sad....I so wanted to love my Apple, and now I am regretting not getting another Dell laptop!
I have another appointment today to drop it off again...thank goodness I bought the 3 yr warranty!
Thanks for letting me vent!
I have been experiencing odd freezes which I believe to be related to the graphics drivers. Updated today and so far, so good.

I have a macbook pro intel core 2 duo w/2.16 ghz and I don't know if I should run/not run the update. It is required for the 2.2 and 2.4 kids. sigh.... If there is nothing but the nvidia updates, I'll pass.

No idea if the slowness of Unreal Tournament, as noted by MacWorld, has improved.
so far it looks like it fixed the extra sensitive ambiance sensors for me
June 29 2007 at 8:36 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyYeah..... until I hear of anything major being fixed I think I'll hold off on this update. The risk of the patch breaking something seems to far outweight the risk of it fixing something I care about.
Why dont they give us some release notes or something. Why the hell did they put this out?
Screen rotation with an external display has been added.
