I’ve sent a bug report.
Is it possible to remove 10.4.9?

2

I just completed the 10.4.9 update myself and Unity won’t launch on my machine either (MB Pro). This after being all good with 10.4.8… :cry:

We’ll be looking into this ASAP.

Oh fragnabbit! I just finished the update (it’s bouncing in my dock right now) and can’t back out of it now. Darn racking frack!!!

4

D’oh! Me to it appears. I’m on a 1st gen Intel iMac.

Ok folks, there is a solution at hand that only costs you another 310MB download… :roll: If you download and run the Intel 10.4.9 Combo updater then all is good. I just downloaded it and ran it myself and Unity is once again alive and well. We recognize that this is but a workaround and will continue to drive for a proper solution. If that fails on your end then please let us know ASAP.

Just about to update and read this post.

Wonder if it affects PPC.

PPC machines seem to be safe from this issue. David Helgason and I ran the initial update simultaneously, him on a PPC and me on an Intel machine and he was unaffected.

ppc is not affected by this.

Just off iChat with David H. If you have updated using the auto update to 10.4.9 on an Intel Mac just do as Tom mentions … download the combo updater on Apple’s site and install that. Fixed everything fine for me …

I aslo submitted a crash log to the OTEE folks to help them solve the issue.

With 10.4.9 Combo updater it’s working again.
Thanks

Combo updater worked for me also.

12

The auto upgrade works fine on my Core Duo 17" MBP

Either my machine is not affected or Apple has done a quick fix on the upgrade package…

strokes his ppc

Another thumbs up for the combo updater. Fixed everything, Unity works under 10.4.9 now.

15

My Unity still doesn’t work after the combo update. Any help OTEE?

16

Did you send a bug report using Report Bug.app? This way otee will be able to see what went wrong during the startup.

17

BronxBomber and I just exchanged some IMs and I asked him to do the same thing Keli (along with sending along the crash log of course).

18

Hey, thanks for the news! Got the email, hadn’t noticed 4.9.

Long live Unity!!!

I thought to post here what happened to me just in case it might be of any help. After reading the email from otee I have installed directly the 10.4.9 combo update without installing the items shown in auto update. Restarted the machine. Installed the remaining updates with auto update (quicktime, itunes, …). At this point Unity didn’t start. Once I have reinstalled the combo update it worked again. Hope this help.
