10.5.2 and a Security Update?

I downloaded the latest update to Leopard which is fine for me, and then also installed the Graphics update that comes with it; but I see in online sources and at the Apple Downloads page, that there is also a Security Update: +02/11/2008 Security Update 2008-001 is recommended for all users+.
Unlike the other software, this did not appear in Software Update.
Does anyone know if I should download this, or if it is incorporated into 10.5.2 (I doubt this because of the timing), or if I can ignore it?

It was incorporated with the download, there's no way it would not have been, why? It was a large update 330+Mb. Apple would not release another separate update. Some don't take the system update until a few weeks, therefore the security update on its own.

  • Graphics Update (and/or Security Update 5) killed DVD Player Playback???

    DVD player worked fined before I applied the Graphics Update (and the Security Update 5).
    Both done through the Software Update process
    Now the DVD Player application gives me a black screen. (The sound is playing fine).
    (Tried different DVDs, including one which I was half thru watching on my MacBook Pro)

    I remembered I did one more thing. I swichted from the 32-bit startup to the 64-bit (using "32- or 64-bit Kernel Startup Mode Selector.app")
    I now switched back, and DVD Player is working fine again.
    So that is what causes the problem. (although I don't understand why, because even 32-bit applictions should run fine in the 64-bit Kernel mode)
    I hope Apple will fix this issue soon.

  • MacOS 10.4.11- Unable to update to current recommended Firefox because OS10.5.x is required. Cannot go to 10.5.x, what Firefox should I be running and what security update? And how do I get these updates?

    OSX 10.4 isn't the only limiting factor that you have, Firefox 4+ versions need an Intel processor.
    For older Macs that aren't supported in Firefox 4+ versions, try TenFourFox for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8 . <br />

    Firefox 3.6.25 has basically the same security updates that the latest Firefox 9 version has - far better then what you now have.

  • Firefox running slow or not loading sites before and after security update

    Firefox was slow or would time out loading websites and I got a notice of security update. I'm running Mac OS 10.5.8 and Firefox 10.0.1. I've tried saving a new profile in Terminal and it keeps telling me "firefox-bin quit unexpectedly). I've tried to make a new profile and there is no "Firefox" listed under "Library/Applications Support". Google Chrome is wicked quick and Safari is working normally. Firefox is my choice but I just can't use it. Any suggestions that won't cause me to loose my bookmarks, etc.?

    Thanks.
    Yes I have. That's where I ran into the problem in trying to set up a new profile and found no listing for Firefox under my Library/Applications Support. I can't make a new profile if I can't access Applications Support. I miss Firefox. There are so many things to like about it but it's just not functional right now and I'm apparently not the only person with this problem. Chrome is my current best friend, sad to say.

  • Huge problem after Safari 3.1 and new security update

    I just installed the new SAFARI 3.1 as well as the security update and I am SCREWED! (unless a genius here can help out).
    After the install and restart my desktop picture is sligthy blown up but worse -it essentially floats when I move the mouse. As such, it can obscure the top of the image which "hides" the Apple pull down options AND I canot get the dock to reveal at the bottom of the frame. In a word - screwed.
    Any thoughts?
    thanks
    Theo

    looks like I figured this out on my own - it was the zoom function that had somehow been activated.
    It all seems to be working fine now once I set that

  • ANM server and Linux (Security) Updates, which must I deny?

    Hello!
    Tha ANM installs some special RPMs into server. Can I update the OS with RedHat update or yum and accept all updates?
    Kai

    Kai-
      For the OVA based ANM, you have no kernal access.  For the RedHat based install, as long as the update does not mess up the sql database, or restrict any of the calls ANM uses, it wouldn't hurt it.

    Problem is solved by setting my MBP's WiFi Network to have Manually IP addressas well as setting the appropriate DNS servers provided by the ISP. Probably Apple's update change something. I was using DHCP before and now I have to use Manual in order to connect to Xserve share points.

  • Beach Balls and freezes after installing Safari 3.1 and security update

    Hi,
    I just recently installed the safari 3.1 update and the security update. My machine is an iMac 2.4 GHz with 10.5.2. Prior to this, the machine only had one freeze (had to power off) which happened a about a month back. Since the update, 2 days ago, the machine seems to show the beach ball more often. On one specific occasion (happened when my son was using it), the Chess game was running, and the mouse cursor turned into a beach ball and everything froze - can only move the mouse cursor/beach ball but nothing else responded. Even hitting the caps lock key took minutes before the caps lock light came on. Me being a windows user for a long time, I was blindly trying to find the keyboard equivalent of ctrl-alt-del to pull up a process list of some kind so that I can kill the offending app. But was not successful, hence I had to power off.
    On another occasion, and this time, it happened to me - the beach ball came up as I was using safari. I could use other stuff in the OS, but any time I brought the cursor over safari, it would turn into a beach ball. After waiting a few minutes and clicking away on the safari window, the beach ball turned into a finger cursor when I clicked on the http address window - and safari started to work like normal again.
    I'm wondering if anyone else has had experiences similar to this and if there are any steps I can take to prevent this again.
    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Apple forums:
    Did you perform both updates at the same time? I usually recommend doing them one-at-a-time, so if anything happens you know which update caused the problem.
    I especially never do a system update with any other update. I always do that one last, and wait for the dust to settle by reading this board first.
    You should run DU and check the HD and repair permissions. That's a start.

  • Beware the Security Update - How I fixed my WIFI problem and a question

    First of all I have read the "Latest Update from 21 January is A Disaster" thread and I basically agree with Andrew is Stuck so please don't feel the need repeat any of the stuff about it is not a bug in the update etc etc and I should have a Super Duper clone to hand etc etc . I have read that stuff. You are probably right but they should write on the Security Update info panel - "Be Careful this could really ruin your day".
    I am ****** off and stressed out and I need to rant and I am not looking for that kind of lecture - even if it is partially or wholly true. I need to feel positive by warning people the way I wish I had been warned!
    NB I am near the end of a professional dance tour as Musical Director running music on Logic on my MBP and it has been working fantastic - not a single glitch in 6 weeks. I would never upgrade my OS or Logic in the middle of job like this BUT Security Updates have always seem like something you should install because they will protect the Mac or protect against any new viruses etc. I have never had a problem with them before. (THAT ATTITUDE WILL NOW CHANGE!!!)
    This update has caused a lot of people a lot of problems (check out this forum) and it has caused me more real world problems than anything I have downloaded and installed from anywhere in the last 3 years. Thus it has nothing to do with Security!!! HOw any people does a Security Uodate have to goose before it becomes an unsatisfactory Security Update?
    This security update suddenly stopped my WIFI working and put me in a real hole.
    (I am sure you don't care but I have a meeting tomorrow morning that I needed to do 3 hours of prep for including looking at VIDEO online. And the Security Update has just put paid to that. )
    After 3 hours I have just got WIfi back- here's how:
    I repaired permissions twice with Disk Utility - no joy. I found I could get online when I booted in Safe Mode (and I could get online with my Iphone on the same WIFi setup) so I knew it was not the router - though I did switch the router on and off a few times,
    When I initially ran Repair permissions there was loads of things needing repair. I ran it again and 2 remained:
    usr/share/derby it keeps trying to repair
    and one of the package contents of the ARDAgent.app (System>Library>CoreServices>RemoteManagement>ARDAgent.app>Contents>MacOS>ARDAg ent) had a warning attached that it in the Disk Utility Repair Permissions report that it had been modified.
    So I restored ARDAgent.app from a Time Machine Back up and replaced the offending file when in Safe Mode (Restart with Shift held down). - using Ctrl Click to open the ARDAgent.app package contents.
    This seemed to sort it all out for me.
    I guess people need to look in their Disk Utility Repair Permissions reports and see if any esoteric system files have been goosed by the update and see if they can get them back - although if you don't know what you are doing this could make things worse......
    Anyway I DO have questions:
    If this hadn't of worked:
    1) Would reinstalling Snow Leopard from disks have upset my preferences, installs of Logic and Audio drivers and 3rd party application installs and the rest?
    - the main stressor when this happens is not trying to lose the whole day.
    2) Is there a way of just restoring the System from a Time Machine Backup or a SuperDuper clone or do you have to restore the whole state of the entire Hard Drive?
    Best
    Tommy Banana
    PS I feel better now. Thanks for listening.

    The fact that you saw no glitches while running Logic before applying the update means almost nothing because that uses only a small subset of system resources. Far more significant is that Safe Mode restored some missing functionality: because it disables non-essential items like user fonts, third party drivers, & so on, it points to problems in those areas.
    Equally significant, the fact that there are relatively few reports of post-update problems among the several million Snow Leopard users points away from the update itself as the cause of your problems.
    Separate & apart from that, it so happens that I'm a sound engineer/system designer/board operator with nearly 40 years of professional touring experience. FWIW, I never have & never will update the software of any system I must rely on professionally (whether it is running on a Mac, a PC, or dedicated hardware) unless & until I can thoroughly test it first and I have a trustworthy backup/recursion strategy to fall back on in case of problems.
    I strongly suggest you learn from your unpleasant experience & do the same. I have had far fewer problems with Macs than with PC's, but nothing is 100% reliable to begin with. Changing the OS software part way through the tour is just asking for trouble, no matter how reliable that has been in the past. Even if the budget allows for nothing better than a stack of burned CD's & a couple of consumer grade CD players, no professional tour can afford to be without some fallback strategy in place. That should be self-evident & require no warning from Apple or anybody else.

  • IMac G5 freezes on start up after ITunes, Quicktime and Security update

    On June 2nd, the following event occurred on my IMac G5 (model year 2005) equipped Mac OS 10.4.9
    Upon completion of the automatic update for Itunes, Quicktime and a security update, the computer restarted.
    However, the start-up sequence freezes on a grey screen with the logo for the power button displayed in the middle and a message inviting to hold down the poer button down for 5 sec to re-start.
    the only way to complete the start up sequence is to hold down the apple key while pressing the power button.
    Does anyone have any suggestions to regain control of my computer ?thank you in advance.

    Welcome to Discussions - Hopefully, you repaired permissions both before and after updating, if not, it might be a good thing to do now. Also, you are not alone in having problems with the update, take a look at this.
    Generally, it's better to install updates one by one, so that if you have problems, you know which one caused them.

  • Slower MBP since 10.5.4 Most Recent Security Update and iTunes 7.7.1(1)

    Anyone notice a significant overall slowdown since installing updates to iTunes and the Security Updates that were released recently? My MBP is an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.3GHz with 4GB of memory; it should blaze, and used to, but not anymore. Very noticeable slowdown overall!

    After update 10.5.2 there has been performance issues on my MBP as well.
    Response performance varies - like your laptop is becoming tired..................
    Unfortunately, general freezing of the screen and all control (except power down), happens randomly - I read in another post that this only happens on Battery? - I believe this to be true...........
    Longer app loading times and annoyances from spotlight indexing at poor times.
    Window memory and size are lost on occasion - having to resize all quite often - crazy.
    Dock unhide judder from first mouse activation - I know it's petty, but I think the Dock is worth it.
    Sometimes, bootcamp partition desktop icon fails to appear with the other desktop icons, later after spotlight has calmed down.
    The last bug is usually a sign to run Onyx maintenance and rebuild spotlight and other preferences.
    Great program.
    This usually sorts it out for a week and then the symptoms come back.
    Logic Pro seems to take more RAM (I know i need to upgrade - only 3Gb available on my machine - nuts.)
    Still a very cool machine though - BF2 and Logic on one laptop.............
    Any positive ideas and solutions are welcome.

  • Applications not responding apparently after Security Update 2007-009

    Mail, iTunes, Skype, MSN Messenger, MainMenu, Emule, Safari and god know what else aren't responding after Security Update 2007-009.
    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new phone that does not work with macs, so I bought an application from Feisar to make it work. The application isn't freeware, so I think it is very unlikely that it bogused my system. Anyway, I installed the software, but only afterwards noticed it didn't work for my phone model with the USb interface, only through bluetooth, which I don't have. Moreover, and, in my opinion, more importantly, I also downloaded and installed security update 2007-009. After the update, I mandatorily restarted OS X and instantly noticed Mail, iTunes, Safari, Skype and Messenger not working. I click on them on the dock, they bounce (usually once, but it has occured to be more) and nothing happens. I don't get the little arrow below the icon. I see the applications in the applications folder, so they are not missing. I searched and searched on the internet and, apparently it is, to say the least, herculeanly complicated to downgrade from a software update. I tried to repair permissions and it didn't work. I tried the apple hardware test and everything came out perfect. I restarted many times and the same keeps happening.
    So I wasted half my day yesterday trying to fix this, looking into forums and trying to talk to people about it and there it absolutely no answer. Yesterday I installed the programs necessary to sync my phone in my wife's macbook and nothing bad happened. So I'm guessing it isn't about the phone plugins I installed. I've tried to download combo updates but they crash as soon as I try to install them - I even tried to install a 10.4.10 update.
    This is the error message I get:
    Command: Installer
    Path: /Applications/Utilities/Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Installer
    Parent: WindowServer [114]

    I put part of in on google to check if there was anybody discussing anything related and someone suggested - bizarrely enough - updating adobe reader. I did it just in case and, of course, it didn't work. I repaired permissions a million times already, I rebooted in safe mode, I scaned the computer with apple jack (which reapetedly said that I had a "fan failure!"), I verified the disk with diskutility - which showed nothing. I tried downloading an anti-virus (ClamXav), but I couldn't open it also, I trashed my prefs, I deleted all internet plugins, but still.... nothing.
    The most likely line to follow here is the "fan failure" message in apple jack. I looked inside my g5 and all fans except for the one close to the Hard Drives aren't spining. I'm not sure this means they aren't functional or whether the temperature isn't high enough for it to be turned on. Temperature must be around 26-28 degrees Celsius today. There is nothing on the internet about that fan failure that's close enough to my case.
    I'm about to quit and take it to the very expensive - yet reliable - authorized tech support apple has in Rio. Any ideas, anyone?

    Maybe it is a security update thing! I have had similar troubles with my CS2 and other simple apps like TextEdit not opening, just doing that single bounce... I have tried EVERYTHING and now, after reinstalling my entire system, have lost access to my own user profile.
    I'm assuming you have tried starting up with your original system install disk in the computer, while you turn it on, hold the option key, it will allow you to run another hardware check, as well as to do an archive install if it comes down to that.
    good luck, please let me know if you find out something else that might be causing the problems... i've noticed that alot of mac threads have similar probs listed.

  • Mac Mini (intel) freezes after Security Update

    On May 16th I downloaded and installed ´Security Update 2006-003 (Intel)´ on my Mac Mini. Since then I have been unable to have any other session with it than in "safe boot" mode.
    Then, on May 18th, during one of these "safe" sessions, I also downloaded and tried to install ´Mac Mini SMC Firmware Update´, hoping that this could be the resolve. The initial behaviour changed slightly, but that was all.
    When I now look for upgrades, I get the message that the latter is available for download, so it has obviously not been activated.
    I have been keeping the ´box´on for days in case there was some process going on in the background that would resolve it, but in vain.
    As something appears to have entered the machine with these updates, are there any way to reverse them and throw them out?
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Thanks for your reply!
    To adress your questions in sequence:
    1 - After powering up, the grey Apple screen emerges, and shortly after the rotating wheel of bars starts going. Then the screen changes to blue, and the shield showing "Starting Mac OS X" has its blue ribbon rotating up towards 100%. Now, here things may change from time to time, sometimes it reaches 100%, sometimes not. But the next phase is the same; a shift to a dull blue-gray screen with nothing on it, which remains until I eventually give in and presses the power off button for some seconds. I even left it like this this for a day, to make sure nothing was going on behind, but in vain.
    2 - I am not sure about your meaning "Since the computer operates normally in Safe mode....", I did not normally operate it in safe mode, it became a necessity after the download I mentioned. Tried to look in the suggested FAQ, but did not find anything I found relevant. (But then -being new to Macs - maybe I did just not understand it?)
    3 - The Security update was the last of 7 updates that was downloaded from the Apple Support pages, the others being: QuickTime v7.1, Front Row Update v1.1.2, iDVD Update v.6.0.2, iWeb Update v1.1, iPhoto Update v6.0.3 and iMovie HD Update 6.0.2. As I said, I am new to the Apple structure, so I do not know if these softwares are regarded as third-party or not.
    There is, however, as far as I can see, nothing that indicates that any type of panic with the core is declared during start-up, it just becomes incommunicado!
    4 - Obviously, the most attractive option I can see is to follow your advices here. But the mentioning of specific versions of CD in conjunction with re-installatin alerts me somewhat. What I got with my Mac Mini are two CDs; ´Mac OS X Install Disc 1´ (Labelled Mac mini) and ´Mac OS X Install Disc 2´. Does this means that I am unable to do Archiving?
    Finally, I have some other topics (Basically with QuickTime) with this Mac Mini as well, that was the reason I started looking for updates in the first place, that will become important again when I overcome this blow. But as I am looking around in the forums I become increasingly aware that there are lots of people experiencing similar problems to myself (Poor functioning of Airport, problems using flat-screens as monitor), and now this one. I mean to see a pattern, and that is that there are significant differences in functionallity between OS X for the "normal" processor and the one for Intel. How deep goes this difference? There is obviously softwares for OS X that cannot run on this machine, and how do I keep them out?
    Hoping for some more helpful hints
    Best Regards,
    Ole

  • After installing recent java + security update, computer will not sleep

    After installing the recent java, daylight savings, and the security update. my computer will not sleep. Does anyone else have this problem? I do have an adaptec usb2 card installed but nothing is plugged into it. Also i don't have any Ipods or external things plugged in. I have had the same setup for the past year with no problems, now it will not sleep. I have also tried repairing the permissions. Please help

    When you select Sleep from the Apple Menu nothing happens, is that correct? Try this: Go menu > Home > Library > Preferences. Drag the whole of the Preferences folder to the desktop. Restart your mac, don’t worry if things look different, you have not lost anything. Can the mac sleep now? If yes, then its a damaged or corrupted .plist or preference. If you are using Apple Mail, drag the com.apple.mail.plist back to the new preferences folder created on reboot, you dont really need anything else but keep hold of the old preferences (the one you dragged to your desktop) just in case for a month or two. If everything else is OK you can safely delete it. If it has not cured the problem then remove the new preferences folder created on reboot by taking it to the trash, drag back the preferences folder you moved to the desktop and reboot. Now reinstall a clean OS. See how you go from there

  • Help...MacBook Restarts and Restarts After update ...won't stop

    Hello, I just ran the Leopard 10.5.1 software update on my MacBook and it restarted and now it just keeps restarting and makes the sound and it won't stop. Does anyone know what's going on?

    That just happened to me. Help. I just did a regular software update, which included a combined operating system update, a QuickTime update and a security update. I restarted after the download as instructed, and now the computer keeps restarting. The little dial keeps spinning and the Apple restart bell goes off, but it never finishes. Then after a few minutes, it restarts itself again.
    I've got a big college project in that computer and it's due Monday. Please someone help.
