Live 8.0.4 still crashes on me occasionally in 10.5.8 so I guess all is good

About AirPort Client Update for MacBook and MacBook Pro

 This update is recommended for some Intel-based Macintosh computers running Mac OS X v10.5.8 and addresses an issue with AirPort performance while running on battery power. It may only be installed on:?? MacBook (13-inch, Late 2007)? MacBook (13-inch, Early 2008)? MacBook (13-inch, Late 2008)? MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2008)? MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2008)? MacBook Pro (17-inch, Late 2008)

Excellent - cheers for that - downloading...

Oddly enough, although my machine is a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2008)?, the update refuses to install, saying that my hardware is not compatible... ah well, thanks anyway...

thanks steko, tried the save boot... will see...

odd enough the first 'issue' i have on a mac in over 10 years... ah well it had to come... one day

Cheers steko - thanks for collecting all the info here in this thread. I'll give that a go tomorrow, after I make a back-up...

ok...

I'm trapped.

I'm still on a stable and reliable os 10.5.6.
I accepted the update from itunes 8 to 9.
itunes9 now needs Safari 4 to access the iTunes Store.

But I can't install safari 4 because I'm not on 10.5.8.... AAAAAArg!!!!!



This will make me avoid spending too much $$ on iTunes store

Before they release a really reliable update....

cheers

i say wait, only good thing (if you have need for it, i do) is that you can set up home sharing in iTunes9, it's really wicked.

otherwise, i would wait.

thanks subfunk,

I'm less and less trusting apple. they release new updates every monthes, and it's more and more un-reliable...

I'm now used to wait before upgrading the system, but I always click "yes" for applications updates such as iTunes, safari... I should learn to wait for these upgrades too...

and now I'm on iTunes 9, I thought it would be better than the 8 (I prefered the 7... but automatically updated when asked for, and the 8 is often "color-wheeling" when an iPod is connected...)

the only problem is that I cant' access the iTunes store without safari 4, but it's a minor problem, as I'm not really a DJ so I don't really need to buy some tracks every week...

WTF is Apple doing? can't they wait before releasing their upgrades????


Perhap's are they building a new commercial philosophy to attract pc-users: "we've got to implement bugs and crappy hardware-system malfunctions, a too clean and reliable OS seems to frighten the potential customers that come from the pc world"...

no shit...

^^^ i always click yes, 10.5.8 is the first update with a minor issue, ah no airport once as well, but that they fiexed super fast. But maybe it's been good for so many years it feels like a big issue now.

Fair enough.

EDIT: because apple except those two times i mentioned never gave me a headache is the only software i updated blind. everything else i follow: 'don't change a running system'
also with apple the reason for updating regular is security updates and stuff.
