MacBook Air and MacBook Pro Update 2.0

Installed today:

No Performance increase from benchmarks conducted 1 day ago

still testing, will keep you updated if I notice anything

I have been having issues with Power Nap not completely working (I think). Does anyone know if this update fixes that?

nothing mentioned so far, I haven't had a chance to test it throughly

I installed this update this morning on my MBP Retina and it seems to have broken VMWare Fusion - I am running Ubuntu 12.10 32bit as a Guest - Fusion crashes on bootup resulting in the following error:

I will be raising a support request with VMWare.

if you have a time machine backup, try rolling the update back just incase. Also, id try to create a fresh vmware just to make sure.

Thanks - A good idea to restore from Time Machine - Unfortunately I do not have one. I have tried creating a fresh VM - This has similar issues. I will try another OS (Win XP) and also a reinstall of Fusion.

Could this update do anything to the color settings? I swear my 15" MacBook Retina looks more washed out after the update. Can I undo it via time machine?

Arif,

I cannot foresee that a re-install of VMfusion will rectify your problems, It must be on the virtual machine level and if creating a fresh VM has the same problem then only a rollback could test the theory that the update broke the VM.

PS: After applying the 2.0 update by parallels Windows 7 VM functions normally and has received no improvement in the graphics performance inside the VM.

I am the only one who hesitates with the -->

System Requirements

OS X 10.7.4

I must imagine they forgot to add OS X 10.7.4 or later.

I am probably being silly. i dunno.

does this update apply to the 13-inch rMBP as well?

I saw no issues resuming a Windows Vista VM using VMWare (5.0.1) on my 15" rMBP after installing this update.

I just did the update to 2.0. Well to my surprise my USB 3 devices are slower now. One of my USB 3 external hard drives is the WD My Passport 1TB for Mac (portable). Before the update I averaged 117 MB/s read/write now I am only getting 70 MB/s for read/write acording to BlackMagic. I am running on a MacBook Pro Retina Display 2.6 i7 with 16 GB Ram. So it looks to me the improvement went down not up. Go figure.

Didn't really notice anything faster or slower after the update.

BUT: my mbp with 8gb ram now only seems to have 384mb vram for the hd 4000 (down from 512mb).

On another forum someone said his mba with 4gb ram has gone up to 512mb after updating.

Don't know what to think but it's definitely strange.

This update is for all 2012 MacBook.

BUT

My MacBook Pro classic is stuck on a grey screen since i tried this update... so...
