The same thing happens to me, it says: 7.0.517.41 and won't update to the new version. I've tried installing it again with "the new one" found in the stable site and still says: 7.0.517.41
Anyone knows why is that?

My Linux Chrome just updated to 7.0.517.44. Probably just some latency waiting for the update to propagate worldwide?

Ok, this is the third time that it happened to me. I have the previous version of Chrome (.41) but impossible to update, according this sentence:
"Impossible to update the server (error: 12)"
It's really annoying to deal with this every update, so please fix it. Thanks
I have Mac OS X 10.6.4

When running Chrome on Mac with Snow Leopard it makes my processor run wild. When? Multiple tabs and windows. Perhaps if a tab has a flash video opened (not sure about this!)

I have problem with showing some swf files.I think that problem in in updated flash player.In other browsers it is o.k. In Chrome I just get blank field where should be flash file and on right click there is dimmed option Movie not loaded...

Finally Chrome autoupdated itself without a hitch. Amazing!
Now if it can only download obscure pages like nytimes.com or ft.com, that would be *outstanding.*
Enough with your meaningless version numbers. How about fixing what a browser is supposed to do: I.E. download pages, quickly and easily????
OSX 10.6.4 and yes it works on Safari on the same machine and yes I cleaned cookies and cache to try to help creaky Chrome along -- to no avail.

There is a SERIOUS problem with Flash introduced in Chrome 7.0.517.44 for Mac OS X, version Leopard 10.6.4.
Instead of a full window Flash, often just a black page is shown.
Moreover Chrome is locking/freezing the whole system down for a few seconds, which happens each couple of minutes.
I firmly hope this will get fixed within few days.

Frankly i am sick and tired of having to fix the shockwave flash crashes, even the new one has crashed. So might wait for the new IE at least that should be okay. I have used your Firefox and Chrome for a few years but this year has been terrible , what are you doing Google . Time it was fixed or you will lose me and a lot of other people as well.

Some java-applets that did work in 7.0.517.41 does not work in 7.0.517.44.
see http://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/group/chromium-bugs/browse_thread/thread/c362366b1c0fd2f8/91e53201852207ff?lnk=raot&pli=1

Hi, I have 7.0.517.44 installed on Mac OS X snow leopard and recently, my flash videos has been crashing randomly. Sometime everything works fine, other time the flash window would be a blank space and I can see my desktop in it. The weird thing is, I can still hear the sound so I know it is playing. Does anyone else has this problem?

I'm also having serious problems with this release on MacOS X 10.6.4. I cannot use Google Chrome in three different computers, all with the same OS and all using the same release of Google Chrome: on the three computers, I have kernel panics telling me to shutdown the computer and restart it. I never had this kind of problems on MacOSX, and I'm really disappointed and surprised having this problem caused by a web browser. I have seen that it has something to do with the flash videos. If I play videos from Youtube or Megavideo or any other, the screen freezes for a second every minute approximately, and in some of those freezes, the system crash totally.

Is anyone having problems with CSS files not being loaded into the page?

Still getting white flashes on reloading the page or scrolling down. It can be pretty annoying. It also slows down the system (using OS X 10.6.4. on a Mac Book Pro) and sometimes flash videos don't play as they should. I've tried with disabling the flash player on a computer and just using the Chrome's built in one but it didn't make any major difference.
Right now, my fans jump to 6000 rpm and Chrome is pretty much the only app opened.

Great update. Keep up the good work. Have been using Chrome, since it came out. Have never looked back since. Chrome has replaced firefox/IE on my XP machine. Have got all of my relatives and friends to shift to chrome too. My neice has just got a new Win7 netbook. Will shift her browser to Chrome too.
