Apple Seeds Mac OS X 10.5.1 9B13



As expected, Apple has started seeding Mac OS 10.5.1 to developers for testing. The latest seed carries a build number of 9B13 and offers a number of fixes.

Apple details a number of issues addressed in the seed. Specifically, there have been fixes to Mail Sync, Spotlight Index, Disk Management, Text Drawing, iCal and CalDAV syncing, Keychain login, Read-Only Issue with SMB, AirPort 802.1X, Application Firewall, To-Do Notes, and Smart Mailboxes.

Apple released Mac OS X Leopard on October 26th and sold over 2 million copies in the first weekend. There have been some vocal complaints about bugs in the first version of Mac OS X 10.5.

Notably absent from that list: Time Machine via Air Disk.

...and the workarounds are NOT an acceptable alternative.

Looking forward to using the new MacBook for the first time with this update installed.

Will it fix the "Dashboard dead for all users" problem caused by enabling parental controls?

I can't fix mine, no matter what I try reversing. Ugh! I never realized how much I used Dashboard until it became completely dead.

hope they fix the finder glitches

1, the secure delete that hangs

2, the finder window disappearing when you unmount and drive or image

Sigh... neither of my big Leopard issues are on the list:

1. iDisk syncing that fails when files are added to or removed from packages (such as OmniOutliner autosaves), and
2. Spaces weirdness where, after I'm logged in for awhile, windows start to disappear, and Spaces stops automatically taking me to the right space when I switch to an application.

I guess I'll keep waiting for 10.5.2.

I feel your pain about the iDisk sync. Apple need to be reading up on all these customer problems. Do they read these boards?

I have noticed "magic swtiching" as well. It usually happens when a menu bar remains in space 1 and I have tried moving the app to space 2. Try using the preferences to choose which space the entire program opens up into. Just a temp fix though, the spaces experience should be as easy as dragging any window.

just note, these list of fixes are rarely exhaustive. just because you don't see something in it doesn't really mean anything.
