CptDodge Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Hi, I've just had a go at updating jaS 10.5.2 to 10.5.5 using the combo update and my own update method (using variations of methods on here). Had a kernel panic but that was because i had not re-installed a kext properly. This will probably seem a daft question i know but because 'About this Mac' function does not work (never worked in 10.5.2) how do i check if 10.5.5 is actually installed? I tried looking in the system-profiler but could not find anything. Should i take it for granted that because i am using the computer at the moment i can safely say that the update went ok.? Any help would be greatly appreciated. many thanks Rog Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/147526-help-1052-to-1055-how-to-check-if-updated/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptDodge Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 'BUMP' Could anybody out there help me resolve 'about this mac' issue for 10.5.2? Every-time i click on it, it acts like a screen refresh, everything disappears then comes back again. I've tried searching the forum but all the help i can find is for Tiger (10.4). I can not find anything to help me with 10.5.x Please help me. Many thanks Rog EDIT: I've fixed it. Did a search on the net and came across a site which said how to fix it. The fault is with AppleSMBIOS.kext. I have now installed version 1.0.1 and 'about this mac' now works for 10.5.x Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/147526-help-1052-to-1055-how-to-check-if-updated/#findComment-1081299 Share on other sites More sharing options...
