I've been trying to perform an archive install for a few hours now. The f'n thing keeps hanging.

I think Apple's QA has really declined. Last update, several people I know got screwed by the Adobe thing. Now, I'm reading reports that people are having trouble with this release. I'm not too forgiving here. My iMac is running as close to stock as it can (no haxies, etc). The installer just crashed. WTF Apple!?

1. Close Safari.

4. Open info.plist - You can use either Property List Editor or TextEdit.
5. Locate Bundle Identifier for com.apple.Safari.
6. Change BOTH MaxBundleVersion AND MinBundleVersion to (current version of Safari; usually the first three digits are sufficient)
7. Save and relaunch Safari.

HTH

Here is how to get PithHelmet working with 10.4.7.

In the info.plist file, search for "417" and replace it with "420". Should work.

Yeah... you're right. Kinda jerky

The update went fine here on my MBP 15". However, the issue of winking of screen after it wakes up seems to have worsened! (earlier it looked as if the problem was solved but now it seems as if it has gone worse)

[marsbt]

It was jerky for me even before 10.4.7. Really jerky if there were several images on the page aligned vertically so that I had to go Pg-Down a few times to get to bottom. On those pages scrolling has been jerky in 10.4.6 too.

After a bit of usage: this jerky safari scrolling is annoying me now

This got the Acidsearch SIMBL plugin working again for me. Thanks for the tip!

I just noticed that my MBP doesn't get as hot on that bar about the number keys. Yesterday I wouldn't have been able to hold my finger on that bar for more then 5 seconds without it being uncomfortable but tonight I can hold my finger on there all I want. The only thing different is the 10.4.7 update.....

[eddiecatflap]

my net connection via airport seems much faster and more reliable and safari no longer has that weird line in the middle when you scroll

so far so good !

No two-fingered right-clicking for iBook users? Dang, I was looking forward to that...

10.4.7 fixes the bug with LDAP accounts being able to authenticate through the security framework.

anyone elses safari break? Mines acting verrry odd.

if i type in the address bar it won't display the text until i open a new tab, then mysteriously the webpage is display but i cant scroll. i can click a link, but it wont refresh till i've flipped back and forward to the other tab.

After giving up and trying to close the window, it just hangs until i force quit.

AFAIK your startup disk is only listed in the about window if you have more than one volume.

April 3rd, so almost three months ago.

So the updates to OpenGL that the latest WoW patch mentioned it would take advantage of didn't make it in?

[onlykaria]

i thought this thing mentioned something about control of the fan, this bugger is hotter than ever any news of what this update does for the 17 inmbp heat issue

Is anybody else experiencing wake-from-sleep problems on their Wind-Tunnel G4? I'm not sure mine fully wakes up (I definitely don't have video).

[hldan]

I am experiencing choppy scrolling when scrolling from the trackpad only. I have a PPC 17" PowerBook and I use Sidetrack and Safari is choppy while scrolling. I have read that people with the Intel based Macs are experiencing choppy 2 finger scrolling in Safari.
Firefox works like a charm FYI.

I can't see Apple switching OS X to OS XI, even if it is logical. Or if they do, all the graphic artists will leave, because no-one will want to try to design sexy packaging like Panther or Tiger with a "I" besides the "X".

Yet it still appears to be running fine on a 1.33GHz G4.

Boo. I rebooted and now my About this Mac box looks like this



Im getting the same garbledness when i select Shut down etc. Tried cleaning the font cache out using Onyx, but that didn't fix it. Anyone got any ideas?

I think I am having issues as well. I have not confirmed yet - since I need to work - but I woke my Sawtooth G4 up today and it was "on" but non-responsive. Mouse was fine, display was on and I could see the desktop - but no activity and I was unable to SSH in.

[forkies]

omg is that a new feature? sweet

Yes, but only for the Intel version this time around. I got a nice improvement in WoW on my Macbook 2.0.

Do you have any font managers installed? Or, did you use TinkerTool to change your system typefaces? Did you move any fonts from the /Library/Fonts or /System/Library/Fonts folders?

[Landos Mustache]

Strange that the intel macs get better updates.

Anywho, 10.4.7 is pretty un-eventful for me. Didn't fix a single problem that I have been experiencing.

No, no font managers installed. Was fine until I installed the 10.4.7 update.

Thank Buddha for icons.

P.S. Are you running any haxies?

Bigger ≠ better. Or at least that's what the counsellor tells me...

No kidding... maybe there were more bugs with the Intel version

[eobet]

Yup, the two finger mouse scroll does seem to be stuttering for me as well, but only during "mid speed" scrolling (slow and fast scrolling is still smooth).

Hmm. Either way it is odd that open GL is that much better on intel macs now when on PPC there is no improvement.

[stuppy]

Sorted the problem. Downloaded the Intel combo update and installed it again. Solved me problems

It seems that the PPC and Intel sides are not quite "in sync" when it comes to updates. Has something to do with the PPC side having so many more systems to test and bug fix than does the Intel side. For reference, my knowledge on this comes only from what info TigerClaw gives out on the WoW mac forums:

anybody got any idea when leopard's coming out? i'm still on 10.3.9 but thinking about holding out so i dont have to buy 2 OSs in the near future. everything i've seen about 10.4 rocks but I have 2 macs so i'd have to buy the muti-license for AUS $300!! not much point if leopard's almost here

[mac128k-1984]

Some people over at apple discussions thought that their MacBooks were running a tad cooler thanks to this update. Any truth to this?

January, February, ballpark-guesstimate.

Anyone's WebKit break over this? I tried downloading the latest nightly without change (I was using the recommended build from the Applications thread before that) with no luck. Just bounces once and goes away.

Oh well, back to good old regular Safari for me

Oh, and did not fix my issue with Motion unexpectedly quitting with desktop preview on for me either. And boo to only intels getting OpenGL updates
