Been using since last 2 days, so fur so gud

not yet update.. if update i need to update xcode also .. haish more gb

Siri on macOS Sierra is well built and efficient thus far. Having fun with it on the desktop experience!

Upgraded to Sierra day before...
My MBP were too laggy...
Clean installing now. Hopefully it can run better.

For your information, Sierra does not support essential apps any more such as Adobe CS6 and older Microsoft Office. Please read for more unsupported apps before updating.

Just upgrading now.
Wait for 16mins download:D

Downloaded 3 times already still unable to install upgrade. Some message from the installer "this installation file is damage and unable to install". Read a suggestion to delete .plist from the package and the installer started but later another msg pop-up "unable to install to this machine 'null'".

This will be the 4th iteration of Mac OSX / MacOS that I have come by with my 13" mid-2012 MBA. Managed to install the last 3 iteration easily but not this one. Any take?

you need superfast internet. same as windows msdn.. slow corrupt.. torrent much better for download rather then bulk dvd download

Hahha my download failed 16 times bro. End up I cannot tahan, I just use my data to download. 25 minutes kao tim.

#ripmalaysiainternet

A lot of traffic going through Mac App Store for the download. Took a while myself to download it on a 100mbps line, but at the same time, I can download anything off torrents at blazing speed. Might as well you wait for a couple of weeks when things are more stable.

what could be the problem? unifi issue?

My download was very fast. I still haven't install
I sked not compatible with my security IP cam and canon printer

I'm only using 4mbps. My whole area unifi also not working also. So could be possible.

had similar issue with El Capitan last year so just waited out - 2 months later all well (tried to El Cap on first week of release) so will wait a bit before trying for Sierra.

BTW, which data - Green, Blue or Yellow?

Green bro haha. I tell you TM is really giving me cancer man. First was App Store being shitty af. Now Mac App Store.

Thanks. I'm on green too. will give it a go. couple of my condo living friends have high praises for TIME (but limited to condos/ apartments only)

BTW, Green has pulled the plug on free Spotify ... for RM188/month something should be free!

Haha damn that green. 16gigs of Spotify 😢 I always cannot finish hahaha. But I spend most of my time in Australia also. So my Spotify is always being used. But now. I need to second guess myself if I should continue paying 14.90 for it. I already have Tidal, Google Play Music/YouTube Red and Apple Music subscriptions

wow so many ... major music fan

we all should port over to teach Green a lesson!

Australia..so got yourself the new 7 or 7 Plus?

Haha yeah man.

Nope haha. Planning to. No cash now. 😂 plus the horrible back orders. So maw I wait longer. Not hardcore Apple fan. I'm still an Android fanatic by all means.

Didn't download macos Sierra yet because my printer does not have driver yet

Canon? Mine also no official driver.

Yep. Canon lbp2900

Every year also same problem :/

few days using MacOs Sierra is great. No problem so far. Everything is very smooth.

Disabled spotlight to get longer battery life on my Macbook Air 11".

Eventhough I didn't clean install, everything still run very smooth. So I don't think lag can be solved with fresh install. I believe something wrong with the Mac spec not compatible with MacOs Sierra.

All the 3 times download completed but cannot install. But as suggested by other forumer might as well wait until their server cool down and download later.

Haha I got the same printer. I think there was never an official driver for it but you can use the old Yosemite or El Capitan driver

I dunno I haven't tried though

That must feel awful but oh well. What to do.

I have downloaded since last week. Did an upgrade rather than a clean install, just was lazy but fortunately, all went well without any hiccups. All my installed apps appears to work just fine.

No lagging issues or whatsoever thus far.

slow downloads? i download macos sierra a few hour after its released only waiting for 28min to complete download, by the way im on crappy shitty 30mb unifi.
before download make sure that u change to original unifi dns before download the update.. after that can change back ur google dns, i found its was fast download and no interruption
just my 5.50 mee goreng mamak bellamey thought...

yup me tooo.. its better just update and not clean install this is bcoz of macos sierra don have anymore the option "download from anywhere " so cant install the jack sparrow crack app
hihi..naya..balaa

Only issue I got with Sierra is Siri didn't work quite right out of the box. I didn't do a clean install. Too focking lazy to 😂 Siri had to be set up again in order to work again.

so long already. You crazy meh. Buy new one la. Apple supporter cannot be so cheapo one la.

Successful clean install on my mba 11 today using bootable usb. So far running well n smooth. 😀

nowdays tech allready limit ..So apple may focus on optimization rather then hardware.

1. Just for excel you need super quad /hexa core ?
2. 8 gb ram ddr3 for more enough if in 2010 till now.. 16gb if for real scratch disk
3. Proc may good a little bit but those tiny fraction wouldn't see in consumer. I do prefer xeon ..
4. We need to reduce junkyard 3 years new pc / laptop depreciation

wow, you must be careful owner mine is 3 years oredy

What do you mean? Any real differences or just another face as new operating system?

siri is good. Quite impressive voice tracking.

mine MBA mid-2012 still working...changed battery and repair my power adapter.

My Siri is not picking up my voice command. Not sure what happened. It was ok the first 2 day of use. Any help?


Attached thumbnail(s)

no microfone. lol

Does Sierra have slow wake up times? On El Capitan when i put my notebook lid down for some time about 30 minutes when i open up the screen shows but i can't move mouse or do anything for about 10 seconds. Previously on Yosemite didn't have this problem. Does Sierra have this problem too?

Hi..since i upgraded to Sierra, it always appear the JAVA issue. After i update it, still the same..anyone experiencing the same thing?

Cs6 no support ? Fark

ok downloading now

Ok Sierra support Office 2016 (word, excel, ppt) without glitch

just wondering, is it ok to continuously plug my laptop with charger all the time? So that my battery count will be lesser as it shows there "Power Source" so i assume its not using consuming my battery thus it will not increase the battery counts?

Another thing Sierra so good compressed unused files and apps and gave me 20Gb+ extra space, even after i updated 2.5Gb of Office 2016.

yeah i haven't heard of exploding macbook yet, but i do have the habit of disconnecting the charger when i leave for work.

my 2012 11" MBA still kicking, only that the battery life only 2.5 hours max if i only surfing.

Why you change battery? how?

This post has been edited by chokia: Oct 6 2016, 08:20 AM

You can try contact MacCore to ask for battery replacement. Here is the link on how to replace your battery by yourself.

You can find a few 3rd party within the forum. They will contact you and advise the cost of replacement.

OK thanks, i just dont want to use the battery so that it doesnt decrease the life span, since i have power source might as well use power source

I updated mine to Sierra and CS6 seems working except Microsoft Office, need to install Java in order CS6 to work. Heard one have problems with their CS6 but I haven't encounter any problem yet so far.

Confirm smooth ? especially Excel smooth kah ?

My MS2016 on Elcapital works like shit, excel performance sucks and keep choking...lol

Switched back to MS2011 now.

yup notice excel quite slow on 2016

U not using Sierra?

Not Yet. Just afraid of bugs lol

siri is really good

Does anyone here does a clean re-install of the OS or just update on top of the current OS?

i re-install OSX then update to MacOS Sierra...All is good. MS Office 2016 works fine...with latest 15.27 patch updated.

Oh. It does! Good then. Coz i aint gonna upgrade for now if cs6 does not work.

Yes and No. Yes if you keep plugged in battery count cycle will be very low, but for protecting the battery then no. It will still deteriorate over time and even with low cycle the battery will still need replacement.

Mine still nags to update but afraid some old programs might not work like old Photoshop. I just wish they stop with that different password requirements for this and that repeated every 15+ mins.
Is the new OSX browser still vulnerable to malaysia adware popups? The settings in safari does not help at all.

Thanks, then its better for it to run on battery after full charge?

Imo just use as how you like , my battery died recently after about 6 years and 90% of time i use it plugged in, 10% on
Battery itself. It died on the 205 cycle shown on coconut batt.
So if you asked me i am satisfied the battery can last me that many years lol.

I think since Yosemite, a standalone installation of legacy Java is needed to run AI. That is unless you upgraded in place which might have Java intact. Not entirely sure about that.

Clean install everytime if there is time. Lion disk maker is always there to help.

You can only upgrade in place for so many times before some weird problems start appearing.

The main point is to not drain the battery unnecessarily. Keeping it topped up is the best for it's health.

If 10% of the time nets you 205 cycles, you must be some real heavy user. I had a batt that died on my in as little as 300 odd cycles, but heavy usage on and off the charger.

I agree, the cycle count doesn't dictate how the battery wears. Apple gave that 1000 charge cycle statement just to give you an estimation of how long it could last and they could have done it in a certain manner to get to that count. It can't be used to determine how your battery will last.

I've had issues in El Capitan before, I did a clean OS re-install with Sierra and the problems went away. Definitely is recommended if you have the time.

Time and some experience definitely. It is better to have a clean system than one that is upgraded in place. Generally, i feel it performs faster too.

Just the extra hassle of setting things back up again. Generally, i can do a clean installation with all the apps i need in under one half hours on a speedy machine not counting time to backup and restore.

just upgraded

WTH no "Hey Siri"? come on my iMac is always plugged in so power is not a problem. Why cant we have Hey Siri? To press a button is so yesterday
unbelievable !🙄

Updated it, so far haven't found any issues yet

hi, everyone just wondering if i need to backup all my stuffs before updating? Applications all need to reinstall?

Never tried updating an OS on a Mac before so i'm really not sure

You can do a backup via time machine just to be extra safe

Alright, thanks

Previous dev previews killed my right macbook pro retina speaker - but this version restored it

Clean install macOS Sierra 10.12 and upgrade to 10.12.4 (16E195).
Tap to click does not work on login screen.
Night shift feature is working.

the latest update sems to be draining damn alot of battery. anyone noticed it?

my macbook air 128gb always full.(maximum have 10gb left) only for development use...
kesian sangat.. any ideas?

this OSX sierra basically took how much storage...?

A lot always mention 128gb is enough etc during the time of purchase but they will realize eventually it becomes the bottleneck.

even 256 also not enough for me

yup, for nowadays, 512gb should be the minimum.

Yeah, I was initially using 128Gb on my Macbook Pro and now using 256Gb on my Macbook. Definitely my next purchase has to have at least a minimum of 512Gb.

xcode is the annoying effect.. if you just left with 10 GB ..pretty critical.. buy memory card 128 GB.. when download put there..
Latest xcode you need to manually download instead of normal update xcode.

lol kesian... SD Card.. ==

recently i have clean up those XCode simulators... removed old 1... save a lot of space..
yet still not enough.

you need this

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/disk-diag-c...672206759?mt=12

woo. i will take a look on this.
currently using those disk defragment tool to analyse and manual delete files..

if this APP looks cool, then i will purchase it

Certainly. 128gb has the worst usefulness. 256gb is Super minimum but at least usable. 512gb is a best spot.

I am using 512gb one which at least I have adequate free space to work with.

I will like to let go my Office 365 subscription nw. Any taker?

Anyone got USB Siera installation drive?

You can create it yourself
