After 10.5.6 iTunes Does Not Recognize Mobile Me
After upgrading to 10.5.6, within iTunes, Mobile Me is now asking to be setup. It is not recognizing that it is already setup on the iPhone. Does anyone else notice this?

Has anyone tried out some gaming benchmarks? I'm sure it just meant bug fixes/glitches but I'm curious as to if there is any FPS increase.
Thank God! That always pissed me off. It was more annoying than useful. Wow this update really is like the second coming.
EDIT: I also just noticed they've changed the options under the power icon in the top bar next to the clock (I'm on a MBP). You used to be able to adjust between performance, battery saver, etc., but now it just shows your current power plan.
When in Finder, I can't increase/decrease the icon size by pinching now

Didn't read but searched the whole thread and didn't see this. I noticed that the energy saver optimization preferences are no longer accessible from the menu bar. You can no longer switch between better power savings/Normal/Better performance/Custom. Why? I loved and used that all the time.

Nice... Safari seems faster, and the Keyboard/mouse preference problems seem to have been resolved...
Hopefully it remains stable for the next few months!

I'm on a late 2008 uni MBP and after the update have noticed much cooler operating temps. Before the update, when using firefox, the temp was at 60-62 C. It's now running at 55-58 C. Anyone else notice lower running temps?
Note: I also installed SMC firmware 1.2 at the same time

x2! mistaken icon changing made me angry!
If any of you are college students and use Schoolhouse, it's performance was already messed up in Leopard, but you could work around it with Rosetta sometimes. But 10.5.6 seems to have completely broken it. The dev seems to have disappeared, he used to talk about the next update, but there's been no word for about 10 months now.
Update ran fine on my Early 2008 MBP.
The big performance issue I'm noticing is that memory usage is improved - normally with all of the following running, I hit swap usage (have 4GB ram):
- Finder
- Path Finder
- Mail
- iCal
- Safari
- NetNewsWire
- Adium
- Terminal
- Parallels (Vista VM - 1GB ram allocated)
I'm still sitting with 768MB free now

Oh that sucks! I always switched to Custom when I was watching long videos online or something so my screen didn't dim. I don't wanna install Caffeine just for that.
What the hell were they thinking???
Give those apps a chance to use RAM, post back later.Update ran fine on my Early 2008 MBP.

Mail issues with 10.5.6
When trying to view an email with an attachments on my PowerPC G5 I get the spinning beach ball and then mail crashes. This only happens when trying to view emails with attachments.
Anyone else having this problem?
