10.5.3 out in the wild….
Jim Geduldick
Apple just released 10.5.3(420 mb download) as always be careful to jump right on it and let others go through the heartache of learning what is broken/fixed. Never update a production machine during a project especially quicktime updates .One thing I always do is I never touch software updater I always go out to the combo updater from the Apple website . Why? Because each update is a little different(delta/combo) from the updater to the download from the support page and knock wood have not had any issues in a long time from doing the combo updater from Apple.
As for the 10.5.3 update this is what Apple says on it.The Mac OS X 10.5.3 Update is recommended for Mac OS X 10.5, 10.5.1, and 10.5.2 Leopard. It includes general operating system improvements that enhance the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac. For detailed information about security updates, please visit this website. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard is packed with over 300 new features, installs easily, and works with the software and accessories you already have. Kbase article
Bug fixes to be focused on :
- Audio Applications
- Video Applications
- 802.1X
- Active Directory/Directory Services
- AirPort
- Back To My Mac
- Graphics
- Installer
- Spaces
- Time Machine
As always BACK UP YOUR MACHINE REGULARLY its your own fault in this day and age if your not backing up your systems. Drives are dirt cheap and with Time Machine and a slew of other applications like Carbon Copy Cloner and Super Duper there is no excuse not to have some workflow in place.
