Looks like the latest Leopard update, 10.5.4, just landed. Nothing big, but all the details are after the break; Mac users, you know how to snag it. General
- Includes recent Apple security updates.
- Resolves an issue with saving and reopening Adobe Creative Suite 3 files on a remote server.
- Includes additional RAW image support for several cameras.
- Addresses an issue that may result in a partially installed X11 application.
- Improves L2TP VPN client reliability.
- Addresses AirPort reliability issues with 5GHz networks.
- Addresses AirPort issues that may result in slower performance in Logic Studio or MainStage.
- Improves overall iCal reliability for meeting requests, cancellation notices, delegation, and syncing with iPhone.
- Resolves an issue that prevents deleting an iCal event without notifying the creator.
- Addresses an issue in which events in all calendars affect availability. A checkbox now enables information-only calendars to be transparent from free/busy lookups.
- Resolves a UI issue preventing delegated calendars from showing up as a separate window.
- Addresses an issue with copying and pasting attendees from one event to another.
- Resolves an issue in which iCal may not delete events after a specified time interval, even when set to do so in iCal preferences.
- Addresses an issue in which To Dos cannot be marked private.
- Addresses a potential performance issue when loading secure web pages.
- Resolves issues that may be encountered when accessing secure web pages with client certificates that reside on a smart card.
- Addresses an issue in which switching from a space with a Finder window keeps the Finder as the active application instead of the application residing in the destination space.
- Fixes an issue in which dragging an application from the list of application assignments in Spaces System Preferences does not assign the application to the desired space.
- Resolves an Exposé issue that may result in only a subset of windows being shown.
E71 releases interest in Apple v0.000
Looks like E71 is full of LameWare and is only compatible with windows.
I am really happy these things are becoming so prevalent. Viva la HD!
Must be Microsoft E71. It had enough interest in Apple to click through to the post and make a comment instead of scrolling past it.
Fix the bugs from the third of course.
when is the update to liger coming out?
Oh good stuff!
*launches software update*
:D
Go early adopters go! You're my personal beta testers. Personally, I wouldn't rush to install anything until it's been tested well enough.. by my beta testers.
I just installed an Ubuntu updatel. Why don't you post about that Engadget?
Ubuntu seems to be updated almost everyday from my experience :)
I just installed KB95679 and wonder why Engadget hasn't mentioned it yet (it quailfies as breaking news)
That is because your update is from 2003 Jakob, and most people don't use FoxPro anymore.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/95679
lol! @Jakob Henner - Fail.
hahaha oh my god. that poor poor soul.
I just installed an Ubuntu updatel. Why don't you post about that Engadget?
Because you posted about it twice, which was plenty.
Seriously folks, it's a two sentence news post pre-break, fairly easy to skip if you don't care.
Snagit was a windows only app last time I checked...
Because nobody would click on it if there was an Ubuntu update story
It doesn't come up for me in software update and I couldn't find it on the site...this just me?
Addresses AirPort reliability issues with 5GHz networks.
horay!
All Adobe CS3 users better update ASAP!
If you work directly against a server with 10.5.3 your files are at risk.
Not a small "issue", no siree...
Apple or Adobe hasn't fixed other "issues" with CS3 in Leopard, how hard is it!
will be downloading this update of course, and like the show "Quantum Leap", wishing that all was well after the next leap, but it never is.
osx sucks, windows sucks, linux sucks
Damn. What does that leave? IBM PC-DOS?
TAKE YOUR PLAN 9 SOMEWHERE ELSE!
BeOS FTW!!!
bsd, the man's OS
ViVa OS/2.
@ Vidit Bhargava
That was an epicly awesome comeback xD
paper pwns!
RTE-A
Paper pwns only you're still using RockOS...
I'll be getting the last laugh when that Atari 800 update comes through.
Preparing for MobileMe and the iPhone 3G plus security updates (likely got rid of the hole that was allowing the trojan horse that appeared last week to get through)
And I thought OS X was ever so secure, good thing I kept my PC. No I love my Mac and PC.
I actually saw a show about a guy with an abacus that can do some crazy shit. He could calculate faster then a guy with a calculator.
hey, because of this apple update any one think that the 2.0 software might come out tonight or do you think it will be like the 8th of july sorry if i went off topic but i just want to see if it will happen tonight and see your thoughts on it
I forsee. 10.5.4 hackinrosh updater. Releases by 1pm est GMT July 1st
If this doesn't fix my Airport problems I'm gonna be sad.
I don't think even the FAA can fix your airport problems.
"Includes recent Apple security updates. "
Wow thats real specific. Like what sort of security holes did the 'worlds most advanced operating system' have?
I FREAKING LOVE SYSTEM UPDATES!!!
KERNAL PANICk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It means it's also a combo updater for the folks who didn't install the latest updates
i know this is off topic but any one know if 2.0 software will come out tomarrow or july 8th if any one has any info on this can u please post it
Mac OS 2.0 came out in April 1985. I'd recommend going to System 5, though, as then you get MultiFinder.
Doesn't really seem worthy of a 10.5.x for that little bit of change. Maybe they are trying to burn through the sequence so they can sell you 10.6.0 a little sooner.
I know this is off topic but any one know if 2.0 software will come
out tomarrow or july 8th if any one has any info on this can u please
post it
Why don't you ask that for a 4th time then maybe someone at Apple will reply with iPhone OS 2's release date. Seriously, it will out be out by the 11th of July at the latest; thats less than 2 weeks so calm down and it will be here soon (thats my polite way of telling you to get a life)!
Right? If you know enough to ask the question on a tech blog but don't know enough to find it yourself? Just failure right there....
