Apple Prepping OS X 10.5.7 Update

It works fine for me but I have to manually put '/owa' after the address (so only 'https://webmail.company.com/owa' works and not 'https://webmail.company.com'. Maybe that would fix the problem you're having?
It does, however, only work in 'simple mode' or something, so it looks and feels much more basic than under Windows, where it can use ActiveX objects. However I prefer it the way it is on the Mac, it loads much quicker.
Plus one. I run an airport extreme and once in a blue moon I have to re-enter my password after awaking from sleep. Happens with all 4 macs in the house every now and again. If I never ever lose my keychain details again I will be a much happier boy.
Once in a blue moon? It's every single time after waking from sleep since 10.5.6. And a recent Vista update caused just the same issue on the Windows side. Something about it not saving the plain text password correctly. That's my newest gripe.
Other things, like making the iTunes dashboard widget work at all, stopping other wake-from-sleep issues like wrong colour calibration suddenly being applied, brightness being set to minimum, inability to connect to SMB shares, etc. would just be icing at this point - basically given up on them as it has now been almost 18 months (4.5 years for the iTunes widget actually, that was screwed in Tiger too).
Mind you, they did finally restore minimised window icon badges to QuickTime windows in the QT 7.6 update, after I submitted the feedback with every new version since 7.0 ... so maybe if I submit on the iTunes widget for the 20th time with 10.5.7 they might get to it. Of course they still haven't made the 'export' dialog in QT remember where I want it to appear, so it's all a bit of a mixed bag.
Edit: oh and I forgot the most annoying Leopard bug - the menubar still doesn't properly follow application focus. Most notably using Entourage, so even if they don't actually fix this one, Exchange support in Mail in SL may just make it seem like they did

That time frame looks more like 7-8 weeks to me.

Oh geeze...
I guess i'm so excited about it that I can't even do basic math anymore!!! hehe That time frame looks more like 7-8 weeks to me.
I will say late March for Mac OS 10.5.7 if anything.
I hope they fix the issue where every time I paste a address of a file minus the file name in the go to folder thing in finder it never finds the folder.
...Why?
(Not that I care about Safari or Leopard for that matter, but still, seems odd.)
Install safari first then the beta... the new safari beta also does not install on Snow Leopard.. which has me @$% off..
and mail.app will once again, after 4 years, hide after autolaunch at login when instructed
Haha, I don't know why that little issue seems so insolvable for Apple software engineers.

7 to 8 weeks to get my ATV's working again
Theyve been down since the last OSX & iTunes update and iv tried every tip, trick ,mod ,hack i could find and iv been on Apple discussion almost everyday so this latest update cant come soon enough.

That does seem odd that the new browser beta wont run on the new build of OS X?
I didn't read everyone's posts, but i was thinking that maybe they may have worded it wrong. Maybe they meant that the updated browser won't install with, as in at the same time, as the update?

They said current build, not release build.
I am praying that it fixes the issue that prevents tethered photography using Canon EOS Utility.. which worked FINE up through 10.5.5 .. but not with 10.5.6 .. this is a HUGE issue for those of us who do remote/tethered shooting with our cameras. I'm currently looking at having to reinstall OSX off the disc, then go to 10.5.5 just to use this application. It shouldn't be that difficult!!
Come on Apple.. .fix this issue!

uhm... are you a developer of Snow Leopard or something? Otherwise i don't get how this would make you mad..
it means that for the developers who this build was given out to, Safari 4 won't run.
But why is everybody so worried about this? Do you honestly think that Apple would release a brand spanking new browser but wouldn't make it compatible with a new software upgrade??!?
relax...
Yeah! I hope they fix the issue that...
...oh hell. I'm not having any issues with Leopard. Runs great here...
Lol I had the same issue. It disappeared not to long ago though... No idea what was causing it
Small improvement I'd like to see: WPA2 on the Internet Sharing feature, at the moment we've only got WEP!
Would also like the option to emit a 802.11n signal. (at the moment its just g)

I am working at a large company in London and this is indeed an issue. Have to show users how to turn Airport on and off for no good reason really. Luckily most laptop users still use Ethernet, but it would be nice not have to deal with that!
Have you submitted a bug report to Apple about this? I would always suggest doing so when you can.
That's odd.
Wonder how long before that is remedied?
Can see this delaying current Safari 4 users from upgrading their OSes - kind of defeating the point.
Again, odd.
So, a beta version of a product does not run on an alpha version of another (I mean alpha because is not available for the general public)... And?
I don't see the problem. It's obvious that whatever the release dates for both are, Safari 4 WILL RUN on OS X 10.5.7.
This is teh first time I hear this problem. I never had it myself or anyone I know. That, by itself, means that it is not as simple as a Leopard bug, but something else is going on. Maybe a combination of Leopard with some other application(s) is causing the problem. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else for that matter, to test every single combination of hardware and software possibilities. Otherwise they would never release new computers.
