OS X 10.8.5 Update

[findmory]

Just wanted to pass along my smooth update results. From 10.8.2 -> 10.8.5.

1. Installed 10.8.5 Combo Update
2. (before rebooting) Ran Multibeast 5.5.2 w/ DSDT-GA-X58A-UD3R-2.0-FC.aml on desktop
[x] UserDSDT
[x] ALC889
[x] Chimera v2.2.1 r2248

nothing else checked. Rebooted and all worked 100%; sleep, audio, network, multi NVidia (GeForce GT520 & GT240) display cards.

Thanks guys!

Updated
I recommend the Combo update instead of the store incremental update. My procedure is to

1. Download the latest version of MultiBeast for 10.8.5 and read the change file;
2. Repair Permissions using the Disk Utility on the drive to be updated;*
3. Backup your current system with Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper;
4. If you're using the "USB 3 - Universal" (Zenith432's GenericUSBXHCI.kext), remove it from S/L/E folder**;
5. If you've not done a fresh install recently, you should remove npci=0x3000 from the /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist file;
6. Run the Combo Update - don't reboot yet;
7. Run the latest MultiBeast to reload only the audio driver and any other updated kexts;
8. Download the GenericUSBXHCI.kext and install using Kext Utility;
9. Reboot; and
10. Repair Permissions again.*

If sleep/wake-up is not properly working, try removing "darkwake=0" from the Kernel Flags in the /Extra/org.chameleon.Boot.plist file.

Pretty much went exactly as above, from a working 10.8.4 system, except:
4. didn't do this, just left it in there and re-installed with MultiBeast 5.5.2 before Restart
5. didn't do this either, no problems that I know of
7. Realtek ALC889 with DSDT, Trim Enabler: 10.8.3 + TRIM patch, USB 3 Universal
8. not necessary

I never use sleep, so I have no idea if it works or not. Its not worth spending time on, it makes Pro Tools very unhappy. Given the problems of other users getting Mountain Lion to work on my GA-H55-USB3, I'm stoked to have *everything* working: onboard back panel USB 3, eSATA, 1394a, ethernet, S/PDIF. Plus PCIe FW 800, wifi and of course Pro Tools HD3 Accel PCIx with Pro Tools HD 10.3.7.

One more thing, the App Store Apple ID issue was a little weird at first. Asked me to log in, then hung. Went to Sys Prefs>iCloud and it was already logged in. I clicked on Account Details, OK and its fixed. App Store purchases now appear in list.

Would I love an Ivy Bridge board with SATA3 & Thunderbolt? Maybe. But try finding one with 3 adjacent PCIx slots. Fuggedaboutit.

I have noticed on my setup (GA-H55M-UD2H, i5, 16GB RAM) that this update of ML is unstable. I am experiencing random crashes of iMessage and Safari (so far).

Well, with at least Safari, I updated Java and all seems fine. No more random crashes... for now =P. Anyone else experiencing the same issues with Safari since updating to 10.8.5?

does anyone know how to update the firmware for a samsung 840 Pro SSD...or how to get a hackintosh to boot from a bootable CD? One of the posts in this thread said it helps with the 10.8.5 crashes.

When your motherboard splash screen appears....click the button for the boot menu. I believe gigabyte boards is the F12 button. Then you just choose the optical drive.

Thanks for sharing! I'm about to update my main Pro Tools rig from 10.8.4 to 10.8.5. This freshly built rig (born on 9/9/13) is based on a GA-X58A-OC board, 12gb of Corsair Dominator GT ram, a Samsung 840 Pro 128gb SSD, and an nVidia GTX-285 GFX card.

Crossing my fingers.
