So I haven't turned on my Probook 4350s in a while. I turned it on and got a few updates in the app store. I remember not to update the OS with the app store, and when I looked at what is being updated it was stuff like safari and itunes, and I thought that was safe. The update took around 5...

My atheros chip has serious performance problems under Mavericks. First, I noticed that I cannot connect to my Chromecast reliably whereas other devices connect just fine. Second, during regular browsing the wifi would seem to freeze and come back 5-10 seconds later. This makes watching any sort...

I made a disk image after I got Mavericks working the way I liked - this was without signing into google or iCloud. I then setup iCloud, google, and Facebook and did a few other things. I didn't like something in my system so I reverted back to the image I made (this is without iCloud, google or...

I also had this problem. I found I could fix it without an external USB keyboard by toggling the "turn numlock on during boot" in the bios. So if the installer gives wants a keyboard, just reboot into bios and toggle the option, doesn't matter if you turn it on or off. Reboot into the installer...

No Chameleon is completely gone somehow. If I don't have the installer I cannot access either partition. Tried reinstalling it using the wizard. It tells me it is installed but still get a message telling me there is no OS on the harddrive.

One thing I encountered during the probook installer portion is after making my selection and clicking next, I saw a message saying "these kernel drivers are not supported... etc, contact your driver vendor." And the system froze. I hard restarted and it seems like it works. Wifi and sound works...

It says: com.apple.kextcache[5689]: /: no supported helper partitions to update.

I can't get past the error message that the combo update throws up at the end for both 10.8.4 and 10.8.5. I think a few others have reported this problem too.

I was running 8 instances of "yes" in the terminal.

I used HW monitor. The temps kept rising and the fans didn't spin up from minimum level at all so the CPU throttled to 1.8 GHz or lower and temps were around 100F. Anyway. Somehow I fixed it by installing other options in the Installer, including OSX support kexts, DSDT generator/patcher, SSDT...

I noticed that instead of turning the fan on, the computer throttles the CPU back when CPU temperature reaches around 100 F. Obviously I would rather have the fans come on instead of losing performance. I applied the "original" and "quiet" fan patches from probook installer 6.1.6 beta. The...

That option has been missing for me. Also, now my battery is not reporting the correct information. It is stuck at 97% regardless of whether plugged in or not.

A little off topic, but how do you toggle the behavior of the volume and brightness controls from FN+button to just button? I remember the older probook installers having this option but it never worked for me. The latest probook installer fixed some issues with my 10.8.3 like the sleep bug and...

I tried running the probook installer even after the combo update failed and after choosing all the options the probook installer also failed. The combo update managed to mess up my system enough that I had to restore to an old image. So I guess the best option is to create new partition...

The combo update failed. Any ideas?

Yes. Yes.

What options should I choose in the installer for 1080p, wifi and bluetooth, audio, USB3? What about SSDT? Do I need to have those checked as well. In short, I should run the proinstaller as if I'm installing for the first time?

I'm not sure what you mean by a spare partition? Use disk utility to partition the SSD and install there? Can I alternatively: back up my partition with disk utility and restore using a boot USB if the upgrade doesn't go well?

I have a probook 4350s. I put in a 1080p screen, 16 GB Ram, SSD, harddisk in CDROM bay, etc. I remember tweaking and reinstalling OSX over several weeks until everything worked smoothly - webcam, audio, SD reader, USB3, 1080p screen, etc. Was happy and made a disk image. I kind of want to...

I will second that. I also have a 1080p screen and graphical glitches with 4 gb ram. I installed 16 gb and 10.8.3 reports 512 MB graphics memory, up from 386 MB before, but all you need is 8 GB for OS X to up the graphics memory to 512 MB. All of my glitches are now gone.
