| for what it is worth - for many years i've only chosen to use the full apple osx combo updaters and never the delta updates on close to 100 Mac Pro's and 5 OSX Servers and never had the issues i've seen frequently mentioned online with OSX updates there seems to frequently be issues with missing components using the delta updaters such as todd mentioned - and this is going back to 10.4/10.5 at least some of the users would update their home OSX machines and suffer these strange issues and usually a re-install of the full combo OSX update would cure the problems - though i'm not 100% sure if they are still doing the same thing with 10.7/10.8 and this whole new direct download from apple stuff, but i would assume so? ___________________________________________________________________ Dann Stubbs - dann@darkskydigital.com Dark Sky Digital - http://www.darkskydigital.com http://www.RenderKing.com Value Priced C4D, VRAY Render Farm ___________________________________________________________________ On May 12, 2013, at 9:07 AM, Jeffrey Handy wrote: > Can those components be installed manually? > > We've been doing in-place OS upgrades since Leopard (when upgrading to SL) and have come out pretty well in our shop of three Xserve systems and 10 Mac Pros.
