Have you upgraded yours?

Not sure if my 2011 MBP can handle it!

slow..already got it last year since developers beta

i'll wait it out for a couple of months before i upgrade to this high sierra

not available since spinnig hardisk

Updated this morning 5.17gb

can still upgrade, but the new apple file system will not be used on your hardisk.

unlike the previous macOS upgrade, you need to manually search for it. it won't show automatically under the update tab.

what is a mess. last time xcode code this issue.. have to manually update. suddenly got update..
i'm really unsure what the apple think now .. ?Very different

IINM it support old MBP all the back to 2010. Mine is early 2011 but not yet updated the OS. Will do it tonite. But 5.17GB files? Damn. The update files getting bigger now.

From my previous experienced it is safe to wait a few month before update. Especially if you're using a lot of non-standard software. There will be compatibility issues before they release patch.

Installed and running well MBPR 13" 2013 APFS.

has anyone tried it on older hw? Not sure if I should install it on my MBP 15" mid-2010 with SSD. And if I do should I convert to APFS or stay on HFS?

Oh yesterday i tried still no update

unlike the previous macOS upgrade, you need to manually search for it. it won't show automatically under the update tab.

You're right have to search for it

does it have better memory management and more efficient hdd space?

after i downloaded it and install it. my mac just keep stuck at the black screen with apple logo and a sentence saying updating for few hours.

Then I force restart it, then my mac failed to restart and seems like the whole system crash. Anyone know how to settle this?

memory management not sure and it suppose to be more efficient on SSD.. HDD still the older format iinm..

Recovery mode fail as well? the cmd+R during restart.. hope everything got back up..

It some how screwed up my chrome password chain. All sites i have to login again. All saved passwords are gone.

Good thing I upgrade the RAM to 16GB and added an SSD. Should compensate for the lag, if any.

2 days on High Sierra. No lag. Seems smooth on my ol' early 2011 MBP. Then again, I've not touch Adobe apps for the past few days so dunno how the performance of it after upgrading.

Does it uses smaller space compare to el capitan ?

not sure why i went to recovery mode and it let me choose to install the new mac os high sierra. Then everything is done.

Anyone encountered major issues after upgrade? Ie. Crashes, hanging, slow program launching etc...

Just upgraded two days ago. Damn smooth. But dont feel any changes

Cool. Thank you for your feedback. Well, I guess its time to hit that upgrade button.

mine upgrade downloaded, but yet to click install button too.

Got supplemental update today

Anyone has noticed Low down in the write and read speed for ssd after upgraded to the macOS high Siera due to the new APFS?

Yes, same here. No change or difference in speed.

no install yet.. i think end of the year i install..

Are you refering to the OS or SSD? If it is the OS, why wait till end of the year?

my 1TB platter disk.. Mostly high sierra only work on SSD. If i wanted to install better i save money to samsung T5/western digital .. and install to external disk .. It all depend on job requirement.. As i don't time for APPLE bugs, better settle the job and reinstall at external usb 3.1 gen 2 ssd for maximum speed..

True. You have a valid point there.

Performance is great on my MBP 2016, but it makes my MBP 2011 almost not working, it was still fine on El Capitan.

In what way does it make your MBP almost not working? Slow, freeze?

I just installed it on my Mac Mini Late 2012 running a standard Hard disk. No issues at all and it runs fine and smooth.

That is weird, I upgraded my MBP 2011 as well to High Sierra but my MBP is running on an SSD. Do you have any battery problems on your MBP 2011?

at least one good news.. But still i don't time if any failure to test ..

I notice Safari on High Sierra is some how laggy compare to Sierra... I'm using the 12" Macbook core i5 (Y processor) but it only happen on Safari... Chrome has no problem...


Currently I have more than 12 tabs on chrome and 8 tabs on Safari... some how I feel Safari is more laggy than Chrome... it used to be chrome more laggy before...

That is strange. Not having any lags on Safari after updating to High Sierra

laggy leh... maybe cause 12" macbook processor not powderfull enough haha

the 12-inch macbook is not powerful enough. already mentioned previously.

well I think it is the optimization laaa.. if Chrome is not laggy I think safari can fix it too...

about power I have no issue with it..

I open at least 20 tabs in chrome and 15+ tabs in Safari everyday and the notebook do not shutdown just sleep... also I have also lots of apps open mainly powerpoint, 5-8 Excel with multiple sheets inside and some essential apps like 4 cloud drive and whatsapp so far all running and the notebook can keep up... my average CPU temp around 57c to 65c kinda ok I think...have not encounter any bottle neck yet... I have use 2 Macbook pro before and I know what they can do... but so far this tini macbook has been keeping up quite solid... never felt I need a pro to do my job...

I just tried to install it today but it just cant install because it says 'the recovery server could not be located' anyone having a same problem? Please help me.

Please connect to WiFi on top of your right

yes, im connect to the wifi

That's odd because it should connect to ths recovery server once you are connected to wifi. Really boggled myself as well.

how to connect to recovery server?

in my launcher.. please install macos high sieera.. lai lai

Installed but left 60GB of space on my macbook. Planning to upgrade my ssd.

macbook is hard to upgrade ssd.

this is why the important of not to get a small ssd due to the price at the time of purchase.

Yes. But if you are purchasing a larger SSD from the shop, get them to install it for you. Let them worry about the upgrade hassle.

it depends if the shop can do rite? becos if not wrong, the apple is using SSD that you may not be able to find in normal retail shop.

I saw from forum, a lot of them needs to buy from some online shop.

if shop does not sell, i dun think they can do for u. this is what i know though.

if u have managed to find it at shop, which it is good for u as well.

I'm probably buying from online then bring in-store to someone who specializes in apple products to help me pasang. Found him in TZ, specializes in apple products, he sells also but quite pricey.

Cool. There are shops that specializes in apple products. I guess TZ is one of them. Thank you for sharing the info.

this is why.

so for those who haven't bought their new macbook, i would certainly recommend them not to cheap out on the storage itself. go for minimum 512gb to avoid the hassle later since the difference in price of 256gb vs 512gb or 128gb vs 256gb is about the same as after purchase upgrade instead since one cannot just add the extra storage on top of the existing. for example 256gb cannot just add the difference to add to 512gb later straightaway but to change a new 512gb which the existing 256gb will be into waste.

Guys, I am having problem with high sierra.
1) Using my MBP late 2016 with Sierra, I gatal want to download high sierra.
2) During download, I did paused and resume the process.
3) Suddenly during installation process after I choose my drive to install to, a pop up appeared: “The operation couldn’t be completed. Permission denied.”
4) I have tried several time to re install but the same popup appears.
5) Now I cannot to go back to Sierra and cannot continue.

Ps; I have tried USB bootable, same popup. already reset PRAM and I already do recovery by internet. But not working.

Please help me guys, how can fix this without clean/ format my drive. Tq

Talking bout safari, I have some serious slowness slowness and stuttering issue in Facebook when trying to play video.

Scrolling on LYN seems abit stuttering as well.

I wasn't planning to be doing what I'm doing now, so the storage part during purchase was like minimum. Now I'll be needing shitload of storage because of sizes of the edited videos and the amount of footage needed stored while editing. Omg

this lesson told us that, it is better to be overkilled than regrets. we need to buffer extra especially for the 'working space' on the macbook itself.

ahaha just gotta live with it but next time I'll know

Hmmmm.......try clearing the cache and see if it helps. It worked well for me. Good luck!

Hi. I have a macbook pro 13" retina late 2013 model... After 2nd day upgrade to High Sierra, iPhoto & iMovie apps abruptly closed when I'm working on them. Googled and some user suggest due to using external monitor. Tried disconnect external monitor and restart but still problem exist. Feels like using Windows now...Always sudden close while working on those two apps.

Guys, anyone have problem with album cover not showing up in Finder after High Sierra install?

Yes, that's an issue. With all 30,000 of my songs. But iTunes, managed to identify them. Just in finder, it displays that note gray symbol.

i just update to High Sierra on my iMac 2009. became so sluggish upon start up. any ideas on how i could speed things up?

thanks
