No fixes for Mail? Wow!

It gives me more trouble than anything in Lion.

[WheelSpinners]

Downloading now. I'm glad mine is only a measly 730 MB.

[aquaman]

My download is actually going pretty fast. I'm just surprised by how large these updates are getting. We did shed all that PPC stuff, right?

[g5g5]

No problems here. Everything seems to be running fine and fast.

I've been having issues with Mission Control as of late. There are times where things won't show up on other desktops and/or spaces. The option to add "+" them on the top right doesn't show up either. A restart fixes everything, but that can be a pain in the ass. So hopefully this update helps. It does appear to be working correctly at the moment.

[Ray Finkle]

Pretty much the same for me. Doesn't seem anything at all changed for me same glitches I always got.

[Grasshopper]

I think they might have changed the camera icon for taking screenshots with Command + Shift + 4 + Spacebar. I could be wrong, but it doesn't look the same to me.

No problems here. It's the same old Lion. Both the good and the bad.

[Fox]

Install went OK here; I used the combo. Safari does seem faster. I saw a warning on using the delta if you are running Rosetta programs.

[Weee]

I don't know, but stay away from Security Update 2012-001 if you're still using Snow Leopard. It supposedly has a bug that totally kills Rosetta and PPC applications.

[Doug]

I installed the Snow Leopard Security Update and it did indeed kill one of my old PPC apps, MailWatch. Constant crashes when I try to launch.

I still use Quicken 2006, PPC, and that still operates normally so apparently the PPC kill is selective. Hope it stays that way.
