OK...I ended up verifing the disk permissions and it came up with alot of things so I went ahead and repaired the disk permissions. Hopefully this fixed whatever was wrong.displaced said:
Then I went to apples website and downloaded the 145mb PowerPC combo update for 10.4.7 just to ensure everything was OK. I installed it and it restarted with no problems...unlike last time. So hopefully everything should be good now!
Thanks for the help displaced

Wait about a week. TrDo will have an update for X.4.7. It's funny to see my 10pt turn back to 15pt. It looks cartoony again.
Cheers.
not exactly sure if i will actually notice ANY of those updates. it is 133mb and it was very quick to d/l and install and rebooting took as long as it usually does (<1min).
im hoping it fixes the fan issue through firmware and a probably with the lid/sleeping

133 MB for an upgrade to my 2 week old MacBook
This is an unbelievable amount of code. How many lines of code are in 133 MB?
I don't want to know what kind of notes they are writing next to the executable lines.
And 37MB for iPhoto? This is truely a bloatware app.
I think OSX is heading down this path as well.

Good that were fixing some of those problems and bugs, surprised some have gone so long without fixes.
(By the way - I am very unhappy with the decision to close the thread in the Page 2 - Leopard "Screenshots". Sure a few people mentioned to close it, but there was nothing inappropriate in it. I wanted to add a couple of points but then realized I couldn't because it was closed, I was away from any computers for the last week so was unable to see it before today. I am interested to know the answer to the question raised by: JFreak - post #295. But I guess since some people want to be ignorant everyone can suffer from an unwarranted forum closure)
P.S. Sorry for the rambling in this forum, but figured it might get seen here.

Seems Faster On PPC Quad - Is This Placebo Or Real?
I'd like to report placebo effect making me think it's faster or is it in fact really faster? My mail seems to launch much faster. Everything seems much snappier. Looking forward to seeing if Safari still crawles to a snails pace as soon as I have 20 sites loaded into multiple Tabs and Pages.

Examples of browser plug-ins include Macromedia's Flash,Windows Media Player,Quicktime and others..
For example..
If you go to a website that has a media file on the page like a video it might be a Windows Media Video.If it is and you have Windows Media Player installed and it's NOT a UB that could cause the browser to become unresponsive or perhaps even stop responding or in worse case scenerios.Crash the browser.
I believe they resolved the Samba/Xcode 2.3 issue; though I'm still waiting on that. My log files still report the same errors, but nmbd process doesn't infinitely loop through life and death. I also haven't hit the 50% CPU load with it yet, either.
Mounted AFP volumes still hang Finder, but it seems to be a faster timeout period now; probably just the post-update placebo effect or something. Not that I was expecting this to be resolved, as it's Mozilla's issue, but Firefox still takes up 99% CPU when holding down the left-mouse button on a blank page. Spotlight menu still responds to "Show Desktop" Expose.
Most importantly, however, I am no longer receiving any mooing at 62 to 65 degrees on my Macbook, though the fan is still spinning in the same manner, just quietly. (It also seems to be dissipating the heat better.)
Oddly, I keep getting cut, grep, top and sh appearing and then disappearing in my Activity Monitor. [Nevermind, these are processes run by CoreDuoTemp.app]

Think I Found A Bug, Kids
Well, the deal is that everytime I hover my cursor over a link, an icon of an app or just hover it over the the red "x" (close), it activates whatever I am hovering over. Same thing happens in iTunes, too, which can be very frustrating when I try to drag song files around. Also, in iTunes, if I highlight multiple tracks, all of the tracks I have highlighted stay highlighted....for a few brief moments and then become un-highlighted. FWIW, I just noticed that my cursor keeps jumping around. Any idea what's going on with any of my issues? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance....

I updated my MBP via the "Software Update" feature. I must say it was pretty painless... I'm one happy cookie

I can't imagine Apple enabling "Focus Follows Mouse" in Aqua!
What brand mouse? What model of Macintosh? Did you confirm the Keyboard & Mouse settings (or any third-party settings/prefpanes that may be necessary) in System Preferences?
