Mac OS X 10.3.9 Now Available

[hcuar]

Installed on my PM... no apparent problems. I just installed my new Airport Extreme base station tonight as well. Works great!

What a night... new base station and 10.3.9.

 

[Brize]

No mention of updated graphics drivers or a fix for the G5 fan problem.

10.3.9 seems to have resolved the fan issue on my Dual G5.

 

[Applespider]

It appears to have fixed the ambient lighting problem that appeared in 10.3.8 and meant that the PB's screen was constantly flickering in variable lighting. I've turned it back on and it seems to be working as it used to pre 10.3.8

lets not start this debate again. anyone with a brain knows that if another update is coming, they can go with 10.3.10. they didnt run out of numbers.

Thank You.

this will be the last update to panther.. long live the great panther! ~sigh~ good times.. good times...

transparent windows

What does "Use transparent window" in the safari debug menu do (besides get rid of window shadows)? That seems to be new. Someone smart here should spend some unnecessary time figuring it out.

Hi Mitch, Apple Pro Wireless Mouse worked immediately upon restart here.

...and here I am on Safari 1.2.4... waiting for the 10.3.9 download to complete. I feel so deprived!

try to go to any site
you'll see some effect every time you go to new site or reload old one

also try to put in the address bar and press enter
about:blank

go to the site

Changes noticed so far:

1. Safari's bookmark bar has all the defaults back again.
2. About This Mac says 10.3.9.

Those are all the changes I've noticed!

it's really odd. it lets you highlight the entire window contents, even blank space and lets you drag the window around from any spot in the window. edit: does the highlight thing anyway. i have no idea what it does then. it wouldnt load pithhelmet when i started safari because it "hadn't been tested" and it didn't connect to my wifi network on startup but other than that it's all good. dock curiously seems better.

Doin' it!

This is Red Five, I'm goin' in!

Edit: Works like a champ.

 

[aarond12]

I for one am going to go for 14 days of uptime!!!
Then, TIGER!

W00T!

Ironically, on a Mac machine, 14 days uptime is no big deal. Now, if you were running Windows...

I hope it fixes the 4 wheel drive in my Jeep.

 

[Honortgoat]

Woohoo!

Trackpad fix for my 15" PowerBook! Now lets hope it works.

Addresses slow vertical tracking and intermittent trackpad behavior on PowerBook G4 12-inch 1.5GHz, 15-inch 1.67/1.5GHz, and 17-inch 1.67GHz computers.

If your PowerBook G4 sometimes wakes up with a kernel panic, installing this update may help.

Cool!

...though I'm not so sure I like that "may" in there.

Safari Changes

Has anybody else noticed that you can no longer option-click a download to see the speed (instead of the estimated download time).... strange huh?

Also, Safari has crashed on me 3 times in the last 10 minutes after this update... repairing disk permissions now....

 

[Lacero]

Any news this update is compatible with FCP 5.0?

 

[vieoray]

all the default bookmarks in the bookmark bar return. other than that, no problems on this iMac G5.

Pop-up blocker fixed

Safari's pop-up blocker appears to be fixed. I cleared out all cookies and cache and went to a known pop-under "offender" site (MacDailyNews) and didn't get one!

Everything seems to be running fine. I haven't experienced the BT issues that one poster mentioned.

On my system, both the estimated time and the speed are now displayed simultaneously.
