5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
Mac OS X 10.5.4 delivers a relatively small number of changes. Multiple iCal issues are fixed, including "overall reliability", user interface problems, and privacy-related matters. Safari gets a tweak or two to provide potentially faster loading of secure web pages and the use of client certificates stored on smart cards. Changes to AirPort are supposed to address reliability issues with 5GHz networks and performance problems with Logic Studio and MainStage. A small number of user interface quirks in Spaces and Exposé - such as a tendency for Exposé to fail to display every window - have been set right. RAW image support has been extended to a larger range of cameras, the reliability of the L2TP VPN client has been improved, and an X11 installation issue repaired. (X11 is required by some applications that have been ported from Linux without being modified to use the Mac's native Aqua windowing system.) And there's also a stack of security fixes - please read on. |
