10.5.4 is out and about
Written by Jacob Thomason

leopard_dvd.jpgWell, there isn't much special in this update.  About what you would expect from a minor release.  However, one thing that will be very good news for some of you is the fix for CS3 files that are saved and accessed on a remote server.  This has been a huge issue for a large number of graphic artists.  When saving files to a remote location it breaks the file and its irreversable.  It is a good thing Apple stepped up to the plate with a fix for this!  Aside from that, expect to see some security updates, and a couple fixes for your fav apps.  Read on for the full list.


The following is copied directly from Apple.com

The 10.5.4 Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Leopard and includes general operating system fixes that enhance the stability, compatibility and security of your Mac.

General

  • Includes recent Apple security updates.
  • Resolves an issue with saving and reopening Adobe Creative Suite 3 files on a remote server.
  • Includes additional RAW image support for several cameras.
  • Addresses an issue that may result in a partially installed X11 application.
  • Improves L2TP VPN client reliability.

AirPort

  • Addresses AirPort reliability issues with 5GHz networks.
  • Addresses AirPort issues that may result in slower performance in Logic Studio or MainStage.

iCal

  • Improves overall iCal reliability for meeting requests, cancellation notices, delegation, and syncing with iPhone.
  • Resolves an issue that prevents deleting an iCal event without notifying the creator.
  • Addresses an issue in which events in all calendars affect availability.  A checkbox now enables information-only calendars to be transparent from free/busy lookups.
  • Resolves a UI issue preventing delegated calendars from showing up as a separate window.
  • Addresses an issue with copying and pasting attendees from one event to another.
  • Resolves an issue in which iCal may not delete events after a specified time interval, even when set to do so in iCal preferences.
  • Addresses an issue in which To Dos cannot be marked private.

Safari

  • Addresses a potential performance issue when loading secure web pages.
  • Resolves issues that may be encountered when accessing secure web pages with client certificates that reside on a smart card.

Spaces and Exposé

  • Addresses an issue in which switching from a space with a Finder window keeps the Finder as the active application instead of the application residing in the destination space.
  • Fixes an issue in which dragging an application from the list of application assignments in Spaces System Preferences does not assign the application to the desired space.
  • Resolves an Exposé issue that may result in only a subset of windows being shown.

There is also the network home folders, where the user works directly off the server, no local home folders at all.

Josh, 
 
Alot of people use an iSCSI network storage method that mounts and acts exactly like a local disk. Editing files over the network isn't that uncommon. I haven't experienced this issue myself, but alot of people in larger graphic design firms have.

To the previous commenters: Did you really edit mission-critical files directly from a mounted network volume? That's probably not the best idea to begin with.

The CS3 issue terrified us, we would be unbelievable F*d if that happened. This is good news, as opposed to the normal "Its an Apple issue"..."Its an Adobe issue" back and forth.

thank goodness Apple fixed the CS3 issue. I'm still going to wait a few weeks before updating my work machines, just in case.
