Leopard is updated to 10.5.1
Less than three weeks after making its debut, Leopard, also known as OS X 10.5, has received it's first incremental update. 10.5.1, available via Apple's Software Update or via Apple's web site. The update addresses a number of issues, most notably in the areas of networking and Internet security.Here's a quick run-down of some of our own problems in Leopard, that have been addressed in this update:
- Password management issues with Airport
- NAT problems with D-Link routers or gateways
- Read-only issues with SMB folder shares on Windows machines (this was a huge headache for us, and we are ecstatic that it has been addressed)
- Those file upload via Flash problems
If you use Leopard, make sure you update to 10.5.1 as soon as possible!
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

I'm glad they fixed the SMB shares so fast, I ran into that problem and it was annoying. Although I still have problems with network shares and Leopard. In Tiger (and the last couple of OS Xs) the macs on my network would find all the computers extremely fast. Now sometimes my macs see one computer but not the others, or all (but not usually), and they seem to loose connection with the other computers frequently. It's the only thing that makes me wish I hadn't upgraded. Hopefully they'll either fix it or someone comes up with a work around actually works.

It won't install on my PowerBook G4. Just sits there and does nothing. Restarting the computer doesn't seem to do any harm but I can't understand why I can't install this.

This update seems to have killed a Java app that I use regularly.
It uses Java webstart. Worked fine yesterday... now, it won't start up at all. I get the 'application quit unexpectedly' message right away after clicking the dock icon.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
