“Another beta version of OS X 10.9.3 has been released for registered developers, indicating that it shouldn’t be too long until the general public can get its paws on the updated Mac OS software,” Joe White reports for AppAdvice.
“Though OS X 10.9.3 might sound like a minor point update, for certain users it’ll prove quite significant,” White reports. “This is because OS X 10.9.3 brings ‘true’ Retina display support for external 4K monitors.”
“In OS X 10.9.3,” White reports, “MacBook Pro with Retina display owners can run external 4K monitors at pixel-doubled ‘Retina’-grade quality resolutions. Plus, we’ve also heard from registered developers that the updated software allows users to power 4K monitors at 60 Hz, rather than 30 Hz, which should result in a smoother experience.”

I noticed that lagging/unsmooth stepping on that sharp 4k on the demo at Apple. This should be a huge fix!
Wonder if external FireWire connected hard disk drives will sleep now. They are getting tired after being awake for so long…
10.9.2 thankfully fixed the graphics corruption issue I was having on my MacBook Pro.

Thank God no!!! At least it’s resolved with 10.9.2. When it’s that bad, I question whether the graphics card is going bad.
I don’t get why they add and update headline features but leave persistent UI annoyances in.
(Right arrow keying along some photos in Icon view still stops at the end of the row, there’s still no proper window management or Cut, the look and feel is stuck on grey and white and the system sounds are from 1985….)
OS X needs modernizing in a big way but Apple appears to be spending more time/effort/money on lawyers than engineers of late.
One star this if you agree.
Lord help us I hope they fixed the email IMAP fail this time.
Connecting to SMB servers fix??
