Not uniquely about travel tech, but this seemed the most appropriate forum to post this in.... (I take the Macbook with me when I travel if that counts!)
Just upgraded to macOS High Sierra and after the install had run itself in, I had the "circle with the diagonal line through it" icon over Outlook on the dock. Seems existing versions of Outlook are incompatible with High Sierra. There is, of course a free update to download from Microsoft & that is where the problem lies.
It's clearly a large update that refreshes all the Office applications. Now either Microsoft have not got the upload capacity from their update servers (unlikely, but possible) or there is network congestion somewhere between me & the Microsoft servers (more likely). The Office updates are downloading *very* slowly (has been close on an hour now and overall progress is about 50%).
It's not my internet connection either - Ookla speedtest is reporting 215MB/sec download speed with the Mac plugged into the router via ethernet. All other sites are OK and fast - just the Microsoft updates that are downloading at a snails pace.
You have been warned!
