Transparentdock doesn't work. Anyone know what I should do?

What didn't Apple previously get right about daylight savings time?

Isn't DST changing in 2007? Maybe they forgot about that...

 

[Viewtiful Rich]

I guess Apple loves us.

My update was around 15.5MB

Seems to have installed fine on my iBook except that she wouldn't accept my password on the first boot up. I restarted again and it now works properly.

Yes. DST is in fact changing. They probably forgot to slip that in the last update as you have said...

Use ClearDock in stead... that doesn't get broken with every frelling minor update...

I believe some states recently passed legislation changing their time zone/when DST takes effect.

Edit: Here's a link, although it happened last year maybe Apple's just getting around to changing it since the change doesn't take effect until April of this year.

That's what I was hoping it does... but I'd think Apple would say that in the description, given the amount of concern people are expressing.

I believe some states recently passed legislation changing their time zone/when DST takes effect.

Actually I believe this is due to the new Federal law which changes the day at which the clock changeover occurs.

I found the details. Apple says

Updated the rules for time zones and Daylight Savings Time to conform to changes in the law for the United States, Australia, and other locations, for 2006 and later.

This is for the change, in the U.S., that results from the Energy Policy Act of 2005, which changes the start of Daylight Saving Time from the first Sunday of April to the second Sunday of March and the end of Daylight Saving Time from the last Sunday of October to the first Sunday of November, starting in 2007.

Login Screen of Death

I installed 10.4.5 and when the computer rebooted, I was taken to a login screen where I was asked for my password. I did not have this setting turned on before. I enetered every concievable password I have ever used and it wouldn't let me in. After restarting it a second time, it took me right to my desktop. Everything seems normal now. I submitted this to Apple.

 

[mad jew]

Australian dates have changed? Must have missed that memo.

 

[sebpayne]

Is there any updates to the CoreImage RAW processor for OS X? Wonder if it has support or my camera yet!

No problems here with it as yet on my G4 1GHz eMac.

Things seem snappier for some reason, but thats probably my imagination.

Ok... Safari (and Shiira) still crashes wildly if I close the tab after a resultless search at my public local library: http://www.bergen.folkebibl.no/cgi-bin/websok

Firefox don't mind...

I think the problem is with Intel iMacs, not Power PC ones updated with this release.
The update didn't break my Front Row hack on my iMac G5!

(Never mind, my update says Power PC but I guess there is an Intel update too...)

dead link.

I think this is too soon for apple to release an update to stop the Mac OS X running on windows thing. that will be tomorrows update to 10.4.6. back to the windows world

 

[bigbadTKO]

what about the bug where the finder drew black borders around some thumbnail images?

 

[reflex]

Nice update, it fixed my QuickTime problem. Previously I had to run the PPC version through Rosetta to be able to watch any streams.

 

[Doctor Q]

For the year 2006 only, the start of Daylight Saving Time in Australia will be April 2 instead of March 26 in some states.

 

[runninmac]

Is it just me or does the 2-fingered scrolling seem more snappy?

Ah, thanks. I'll set my alarm now.
