That update link appears to be invalid. Thought the 1.1 update fixed everything, but my Rosetta enabled apps still have issues. Now I see buggy activity in my other apps. Silverfast and Epson scanning software not working. Adobe Golive buggy
Don't have the time, but will restore the old system from Time Machine tonight and avoid updates for a while.
Will try reporting specifics. -- oops, not allowed to report unless I'm a registered developer...
That link is quite valid. Works just fine for me. You must have some sort of firewall that is blocking it.
Getting Safari's "too many redirects" error message when I click on the link. Not a firewall problem.
Sounds like an internet provider routing issue.
It is consistant, if nothing else. Been doing this for a couple days. Not to worry, I won't be touching that update after the reinstall of the previous system!
Well, I've alerted the powers that be. It does fix the Rosetta issue for those who installed the 1.0 update. Of course there are those who have prevailing issues that it obviously can't help. The redirect suggests you may be one who does. Keep your system backed up, and if at one point an update is a must, feel free to return to the forum, and start a new thread stating your dilemma.
Well, my issues weren't "prevailing" until AFTER i installed the update, so it took something that was working just fine, and screwed it up....
Think he was referring to my issues. My system got quite munged up from that update. I will allow Apple a fail once and awhile since they've generally been pretty good. This one is the worst in a long while. The "fix" didn't cut it.
I having more trouble with why they are insisting people download it. It needs to be completely pulled and rethought.
If you're getting redirects, then empty Safari's cache, quit Safari, and try again. It's working here. BTW, the 1.1 version fixed the major Rosetta issues. I expect a 1.2 version that fixes the security issues to follow shortly.
Thanks, though didn't assume that the Safari issue was related.
Then why did you post to this thread? That only confuses matters. Try Baltwo's solution, and if it doesn't work please post to the Safari forum.
I only made the reference because I couldn't access the update link ***posted in this thread*** :-)
Well guys I finally Erased and re=formatted my drive re-oinstalled OS and of course since I use Time machine
I had to restore each folder individully! I think I'll stay away from the security update for now.
Thanks you all for you thoughts, Help and moral support. Now I better get back to getting the rest of my PC......oh wait a minuite this is a Mac (I almost forgot.......It seemed so much like my last experianc with a PC) Bak to the way it was.
Makes you wonder if Apple outsourced the writting of security updates to Microsoft!
Well unlike the PC, the security updates aren't "required." They do keep you on your toes though, if you bother to install them. If it ain't broken, don't fix it!

I don't quite understand the "not required" aspect of a "security update". In this day of viruses, malware, etc, when Apple says they updating our system's "security", why would one choose not to install it? The fact that my computer's running just fine already, doesn't give me the thought that by updating my computer's "security", I'll be putting every in jeopardy. So when a security update screws up the previously funtionality, I have every right to be ******, and expect better from Apple, no?
I haven't updated any machine past 10.7.1 on 10.7, and 10.6.3 on 10.6. That means I've been left out of security updates for over a year. I don't have anti-virus or anti-spyware on any of my Macs. Have my machines been infected? No. I've had Macs since 1992. Macs have built-in security much better by default. Root accounts are disabled by default. Network ports are closed by default. And .exe files won't execute on a Mac unless it has Windows installed. Not that updating security isn't a good idea, but it isn't essential. And Macs have run Windows natively since 2006. But the open firmware is an EFI, which is not standard to any other PC. Point is, unless you are really paranoid, or don't trust yourself when it comes to e-mail attachment judgement, or downloading software, or peer2peer software, your risk is minimal. You run a much greater risk at data loss through your own error, and hardware malfunction, than any security hazard.
