Hi WAMUG Members,
I probably don't need to remind people as I've have posted this warning
numerous times, but just in case, I'll post it one last time ;-)
Install OS X Updates correctly:
DON’T FORGET:
1. Backup your system BEFORE installing the Combo Update (or Update).
2. Repair Permissions before and after installing the Combo Update (or Update).
3. Turn OFF Time Machine in System Preferences
4. Unmount & Disconnect any External USB & Firewire Drives / Time Machine
5. Install the Combo Update (or Update)
6. Run Software Update after installing the Updates
7. Repair Permissions
8. Connect your Backup Drive
8. Go to System Preferences > Time Machine and Turn Time Machine ON
Let Time Machine complete a backup.
** Apple warning for installing Updates:
Do not interrupt the installation process once you have started to update your
system.
As I have said numerous times on WAMUG List “Do Not Upgrade if anything is
amiss with your system”.
As is the case with all updates, if there’s anything at all amiss with your
system before the update, the update is likely to expose them.
