Here's to hoping

So here's to hoping that it makes jEdit and Eclipse more stable! JEdit was solid on Jaguar but soooo unstable with Panther.

Yeah, Apple is spoiling us

 

[fatfish]

So many updates

So many updates, just wondering if they're being introduced for something on the horizon.

 

[Blue Moon]

Yeah, Apple is spoiling us

Yep, but we haven't been spoiled like this in awhile. I'm already salivating, Pro Application Support 2.1 as well!

 

[macridah]

Not a bad tuesday .... some cool announcements.

 

[mactastic]

Nice... updates coming in fast and furious now. Let's hope they are all stable and free of any major bugs.

[EyeMyke]

am i the only one a tad bit annoyed by these spread out updates?

 

[DHagan4755]

Yea, finally the maps in motion work on weather.com.

not really so much that they're spread out, but that they ALL require restarts - if they're going to offer so many things that require restarts, a little combination action would be appreciated. Otherwise, bring 'em on.

 

[cait-sith]

uh..

i just installed this, now a bunch of java applets on websites i use are causing safari to crash.. wtf???

 

[Doctor Q]

Every update requires a restart. I'm glad my login password isn't extremely long.

 

[Some_Big_Spoon]

Some of us have to wait till we get home to update.. no time to be hanging out on the boards all day, so they'll all be there for us *cough, cough* ;-)
:-D

Run Disk Utility!

Before downloading any new software run Disk Utility. Upon restart, run it again. Upset about having to restart? Geez.

 

[outerspaceapple]

There is definantly a speed increase with this new java version. my ski stunt simulator is running much faster http://wm.twintipped.com/sssjava/ .

Updates galore -- is Apple making up for lost time or something?

And before someone else says it: does all these updates a sign of the new Powerbook G5?

Yeah, must have run repair permissions a dozen times today. Made me wonder (after all the years it's been there) why would anyone use the verify permissions instead of repairing first time, anyone care to explain.

 

[Phaeox]

Jaxa 1.4.1 never really loaded well on my eMac, so i'll just have to wait and see for this update

 

[PlaceofDis]
