GPU Rendering on Premiere CC and DaVinci Resolve will NOT work after the update, the only solution is to go back to 10.9.2!

I should have thought to make this topic. Just had to completely wipe my Mac Pro (only a couple weeks old, hadn't set up Time Machine, oops!) because of this.

Now I've got my Time Machine set up and will do a backup before doing any updates!

Damnit, I literally just got my new Mac Pro yesterday and updated to 10.9.3! Ugh. I have the D500 cards though, hopefully I can squeeze by with no problems. Is there anyway to test if I have the problem? Just open Premiere and try to render something out using the GPU's?

Wonderful.

Thanks Apple.

well, good news for anyone with an Intel Iris+ nVidia GT750, everything seems to work just fine with 10.9.3. Seems the prob is isolated to AMD cards. never liked AMD products very much, waited to step into a macBook until nVidia was available. I suspect, while Apple may be culpable, the real issue is with AMD Dxx drivers.

Only some users reported issues with D500 cards, you'll see it if Davinci Resolve stops working after a few minutes and freezes the complete computer = hard reset. The bug is already reported to Apple, Adobe and Blackmagic so they have to fix it. Its even impossible to open older files in DaVinci!

I have Mac Pro D500, and Resolve quits after 1-2 minutes..... Anyone know how to safely downgrade to 10.9.2?? AAAARRRGGHHHHHHH
