OS X 10.5.3 murdered my Macbook Pro!
Machinery breaks down, it’s a fact of life, but it was Apple’s latest update to OS X (10.5.3) that murdered my Macbook Pro. I tried asking for help from the official forums several days ago, but the prairie winds can still be heard blowing through the support request topic I created. Not one response.
I checked through other ‘Macbook Pro dark screen/black screen/died after software update’ posts, not all but a fair few coming after people had attempted 10.5.3 updates, and tried some of the solutions offered by other Apple customers. I could find no acknowledgement from Apple that it’s screwed up with its own hardware and software interactions—again—or when to expect a solution. Of course, Apple can’t promise a solution until it owns up to the bloody problem in the first place.
