“About 29 minutes remaining”
:-( The price I pay for being dumb to let it update during the work day. OSX is starting to feel more like the old Windows....
- misterdata 9y agoAnd what time did it actually take in the end?
- reacharavindh 9y agoI'd say between 15 to 20 minutes.
- ungzd 9y agoFor me, about a hour and 2 (or 3?) reboots. And this is minor version update that consists only in bugfixes. I don't understand why overwritting few megabytes of files takes so long time and requires multiple reboots.
- dav43 9y agoIsn’t it ever! The install update now or remind later notifications is classic Windows UI.
- orionblastar 9y agoI respect people who choose Macs and MacOS but there are reasons why I use Linux Mint and other versions of GNU/Linux.
- mbesto 9y agoLemme guess - your fan is buzzing too?
- MiddleEndian 9y agoOS X through around 10.4 would run most updates in the background and you could restart later at your own leisure. It was fantastic back then.
