[w_parietti22]

man! it sucks when the security update is the best news of the day.

At least their is news unlike somedays!

 

[sorryiwasdreami]

I feel safer already!

God I hope this doesn't screw up my system like 10.3.9 did. I had to revert back to 3.7 before I could get work my way back up to 10.3.9

10.3.9 screwed up my system too. How do you revert back to 10.3.7?

 

[FlyNolJ]

Ehhh...

I don't think you do revert back...?

Well, maybe you can.... I'll check into that for you.

Looked @ Apple site, no clue, sorry.

 

[joeswinehart]

Odd.

I'm not getting it in SW update....

Hmmm...I don't see it either, like Sam I'm also another G4/800 iMac. Something special about us? Doesn't show up on the macquarium either, though. Coincidence? I think not!

Not getting it in software update either.. pulled already?

 

[PlaceofDis]

if its not showing up in SU, you can download it from here:

http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/

 

[deebster]

I don't see in in SU either, but since I don't have iSync installed and have ignored its updates this seems reasonable.

Which leads me to believe that it contains no hidden fix for the problems caused by the 10.3.9 update, otherwise it would have appeared in the list for everyone.

And you have uninstalled any of AcidSearch, PithHelmet, Sogudi and whatnot ?

NB: The newest version of Sogudi seems to work.

Do you have any third party apps installled? And have you read
this?

 

[Maxiseller]

Hey, you mention that you had to revert back to 3.7? How do you do this? 3.9 entirely messed up Safari. I got it bacl by deleting and reinstalling 1.2 but the problem is that it still doesn't work properly!! My bookmarks are entirely static and I can't add or delete them! Any help would be appreciated with regard to reverting back to an older update without reinstalling my OS.

 

[Colman]

I was hoping it would fix my Palm syncing.

But no such luck: my sync is crashing midway through since the update, which is unfortunate since I managed to lose all the data in my Clié yesterday through unrelated incompetence on my part, so reversion to backup would be nice!

I did reinstall Palm Desktop, that didn't help. Anyone seen any pointers on this one?

 

[Hugin777]

Have you tried repairing permissions ?

If that doesn't do it, then download and install the 10.3.9 COMBO updater. With no programs running while updating.

I wonder if they... GASP... stopped supporting us?!

oh well... I'm getting a Powerbook within the next quarter or two.

I'm not seeing it either and I'm using a PB, so you can put the conspiracy theories away for now!

NB: The newest version of Sogudi seems to work.

Enlighten me; what are these programs good for?

 

[Hugin777]

Search.

E.g. with Sogudi installed you just type "mov the iron giant" in Safari's location bar to search the IMDB for the movie.

Search MacUpdate.com for a bit of self enlightenment

I just installed the Mac OS X Security update 2005 - 004. No problems incurred, all is well.

 

[aegisdesign]

Breaking Safari every time they update the version number. ;-)

Nothing to fix

There's nothing to fix. Problems are caused by hosed systems to begin with. The majority of users had no problems at all.

What do you mean "hosed systems?" I never had problems with Software Updates until 10.3.9. I have none of these third-party apps others mention and don't know enough to tweak and play around with. It's the same OS I originally installed with the various Updates Apple has released.

So why did 10.3.9 break my system then?

Have you read the 'fix' from Apple?
