Airport seemed a bit wonky - update doesn't appear to have fixed that bug.

Itunes Visualiser
Anyone else noticed post-update that the itunes visualiser gfx are a lot faster - I don't mean the frame rate, I mean that the patterns are actually moving/drawing a lot faster???
I don't think it's the "snappier" placebo effect either - there's a really big difference on my machine - it looks great.

Weird
10.4.5 - Both SE T610 and SE K700i syncs with both my Macs (MDD & iBook)
10.4.6 - SE T610 syncs, but not SE K700i
10.4.7 - SE K700i syncs, but not SE T610
...some sort of progress I guess

Or any Samsung phone for that matter. iSync will always be Apple's ugly step child I guess.
Sleep problems?
After applying the update my PowerMac G4 mirrored drive doors will not goto sleep. Just sits there with fans running and the screen on, but black.
ARGH! Worked fine before 10.4.7.

Icon spacing on desktop, etc.
Yeah, unfortunately! Makes me wonder if/when they'll ever get some of the other annoying small details right, too.
I've logged in to my PowerMac only to find icons all shifted around from where I had them for months and months before. It doesn't usually happen unless you have a pretty full desktop. But you'll get such nonsense as your hard drive icons moving themselves arbitrarily from the top-right corner of the screen to scattered amongst other icons in the middle of the desktop.
One of my other pet-peeves is the subtle "timing" issues that seem to be present with the whole procedure of clicking to highlight, and then single-clicking to rename a file or folder, or clicking a highlighted group of files and holding down the mouse button to drag them all someplace. This is something Windows got right, and OS X still has "glitches" with. Once in a while, I try to drag a selected group of items to the trash or to another folder, and instead of doing it - it immediately de-selects the entire highlighted group except for the item under my mouse pointer, and tries to drag just that one item. Frustrating!

IMAP Fix
Check your SOCKS proxy settings. I turned it off and IMAP works for me now.

10.4.7 could be the last or we could see
10.4.8
10.4.9
10.4.10
10.4.11 and so on. As many as it takes to get it right.
OS X revision numbers while expressed in decimal notation are not decimal numbers! OS.major.minor
I don't know if its just me, but I use a program Quiet MBP to silence my MBP (simlar to photoboot method) and since the update, I have had to increase its setting (decrease the slider, decreasing the rest between uses). I know have to run it at 100 instead of 150 to get silence (meaning 50 miliseconds less rest).
ANyone else notice this?

First restart after an update is always slow. Restart again and you will see the usual fast start.
Try A Safe Boot
Press and hold the shift key while booting up. This might solve your problem. If it does not you may want to boot from Tiger Install DVD and run disk first aid. Do NOT repair permissions while booted from the Tiger Install DVD. If that does not work then you might try Disk Warrior or reinstall.

Photoshop and AFP
Anyone else seen positive results from the AFP fix for Photoshop?
Preliminary tests seems to indicate it is fixed. Can't tell you how happy I am about that. 10.4.6 would crash repeatedly when saving Photoshop files to our server.

What's with all the negatives???
So, according to the poll at the top of this thread, something like 85% of users either "Don't notice a difference" or "Fixed a major feature" with this upgrade.
And only 4% encountered "major issues".
So why all the negative ratings? Is it some disaffected Dell stockholder with a "click negative" scriptbot? Or are you guys a bunch of whiners?

Many distressing reports here. Can't say I really want to update now... everything's working fine, so why mess with it?
