InDesign hides with Leopard 10.5.4

I have been hiding and back again and it works!!
j.

Okay, no love. ID CS3 5.0.3; OS X 10.5.4, PPC (G5)
While in InDesign, type command+h. InDesign does not hide. If, after invoking said key-command (or menu item) when I then switch to another app, then back to InDesign, it then hides, and will not unhide. Has to be force-quit.
I'm sure Adobe blames Apple, and Apple blames Adobe, right?

  • Can I use InDesign CS with Leopard?

    Is anyone successfully using InDesign CS with Leopard?

    Hi Tim
    I came across the very useful blog recently:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/indesignchannel/2007/11/indesignleopard_updateiii.html
    by Tim Cole which may help to explain the problem you (like me!) are having. If you can't be bothered to read it all then the gist is that this is an Apple problem which they know about and are trying to fix (no date for release as yet). It relates specifically to IDCS3 and Leopard, in particular the linking of files that is unique to ID as opposed to the other Adobe programs (other CS3 programs are unaffected I think). For me the only workable solution has been to trash the ID preferences file which can be a nuisance (as you have reset prefs afterwards) but it has enabled me to continue using IDCS3. The problem appears to affect those using PowerPC more than Intel machines. For those having problems with CS and CS2 you should be aware that Adobe have no plans to make these versions compatible with Leopard; not now, not ever! Check the Adobe site for a list of compatible software (yes, IDCS3 is listed but as mentioned this is not an Adobe problem). Why Apple have not made an announcement about this is quite beyond me.
    Hope this is useful.

  • Anyone else having a Problem with Leopard and Photoshop CS3?

    I'm using CS3 with Leopard 10.5.4 at work and there are some very aggravating anomalies, that I'd like to nail down to a cause. Most frequently, when switching from apps to P'Shop, the menu bar stays for the previous app, i.e. when going from Finder to P'shop, the menu bar still says Finder and has Finder options. Changing from Lightwave to P'Shop, the menu bar remains Lightwave.
    Occasionally, an Adobe app - P'Shop or InDesign - will simply disappear and not come back. The icon in the dock shows it as active, but no amount of clicking, Command-Tabbing will reveal the app and I have to Force Quit, losing unsaved changes.
    I have a feeling it's Leopard, since, I've used CS3 on Tiger and CS4 on Tiger and never had a problem.
    I'm wondering if upgrading to the latest Leopard would make much of a difference.
    Has anyone come across this and found any kind of answers?
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    > Just because it doesn't happen to Phil (who may not use all of the same features of the Suite that others do anyway) does NOT mean that these problems are not real and are not mere PEBCAK.
    Right. If someone is having a problem associated with Tiger, it's PEBAK. If Leopard is involved, it's automatically because of Leopard. Apparently, with Apple's latest OS, trouble shooting problems are no longer necessary - just blame it on Leopard and call it a day.
    b FUD
    I find the dynamics here really interesting. This thread would have been very different if Vincent had posted with problems involving Tiger. Would have gone something like this:
    After admonishing him for not providing more information about his setup by posting the obnoxious big blue link on how to ask questions (ahem - we know NOTHING about his machine or configuration, such as which machine, how much RAM, scratch disk or attached peripherals), there'd be all kinds of trouble shooting advice given - "try a new user", "repair permissions", "run DiskWarrior, and on and on ...
    But no, since he mentions Leopard, none of that is apparently necessary and the completely, utterly
    b irresponsible
    advice is given ... "that's just the way Leopard is".
    Those are some serious problems he's reporting that have nothing to do with Leopard. Something is obviously hosed!
    As for discounting my experience because I don't use every app in the suite as extensively as I do Photoshop, I'm FAR more qualified to discuss Leopard and CS issues than Ann or Neil who do not use Leopard at all (and have never used it as far as I know.)
    "Others have problems with it", is their battle cry but it's extremely weak. Do I really need to remind you all that these forum are ALWAYS filled with people who have problems, regardless of version or OS? You act as if this forum was a ghost town when Tiger and CS3 were current!
    Gee, Ann ... people are STILL reporting problems with 10.5 and CS3? How shocking! Guess what - people are STILL reporting problems with 10.4 and CS3 too! Let me make a prediction - people will have problems with 10.8 and CS9!
    Vincent-
    > I don't really deal with fonts anyway ...
    Yes. You do. Even if you never type a single line of text, every application uses fonts to create menus and other GUI items. If one of those fonts are bad, it can create all kinds of problems, including the very problems you mention.
    The fact that you don't seem aware of this and you're still using 10.5.4 leads me to believe you're not familiar with the basic practices of maintaining a healthy system. Again, how did you install Leopard on that machine?
    Look, if you're simply trying to justify using CS4, go right ahead. It's a worthwhile upgrade in it's own right. However, if you install it on that machine in it's current state, CS4 will NOT fix your problems because you do NOT have a healthy system.
    You asked for experiences with Leopard - I can launch every application in both CS3 and CS4 suites
    i simultaneously,
    and STILL not have your issues. I haven't experienced anything like your CS3 problems in Leopard - on both a 2006 Mac Pro and a 2008 Macbook.
    If you'd like help to try and figure out the real problem, I'm more than happy to help. If not, Adobe will gladly take your money ...

  • After a week with Leopard.

    The good news for me is that is mostly stable. The bad news is that it has some unreproducible quirks on my machine. To share two with you:
    1. At one point, the keyboard worked for application, but not in the Finder. This meant that I couldn't perform a search or invoke Finder menus using the keyboard. Very strange. A restart solved the problem.
    2. At one point, TM and the Address Book decided to go to war. When I opened the address book and the invoked Time Machine, the dock would not disappear. This mean that I couldn't cancel out of TM because the Dock was in the way. I had to hide the dock in order to cancel out of TM. A restart solved the problem.
    Looks like memory is getting a little kerfluffled in Leopard. I tend to keep a lot of programs open, so I'm not sure if it is Leopard or a misbehaving application.
    On the bright side, even with some quirks, Spaces for me is fantastic. I can now keep all the apps open that I use during the day without having to play hide the application. Spaces was really done right. Congrats to Apple for that one.
    Even with its quirks, Leopard is usable for me. It hasn't actually crashed, caused me a data loss, etc. I'm keeping my Tiger backup around just in case I need to revert, but overall, I'm pretty happy with Leopard. Sounds like some fixes are in the works which should make Leopard even more stable.

    Hi abrody,
    I checked the panic log. I was very concerned because I just put new memory in and thought that there was a real possibility of a bad memory chip. On further research, I tend to think not. Here is a dump of the log:

    The thing is, HueyAmbient has been misbehaving as it has not been updated for Leopard. (It's a monitor calibration software/hardware combo from Pantone.) Since I've taken it out of Login Items, the system has been rock solid.
    One other issue does concern me though. I followed the Cntrl-D startup instructions to do a hardware test and my machine never booted. It gets to the gray Apple screen and stays there. I am using the original Install disc supplied with the machine. Any thoughts?

  • Anyone got one to work with Leopard yet?

    Posted this Rant at the end of another Topic, slightly OT so reposting here (with some additions):
    I wish I could report that iTunes 7.6 broke my apple tv, because that would mean it had been working up until very recently. Sadly however, it hasn't been used since i put leopard on my media server (mac mini).
    I bough one of the first batch of 40Gb ones before there were 160Gb ones, and have had to remove and re-add it to iTunes (streaming) every time i used it until leopard. now it will sometimes put in a fleeting appearance when removing a disk or plugging in an iPod.
    Once it was even there long enough to tell it to sync one film. Since leopard my work around has been to remove and add it again but with syncing not streaming then sync the one film or tv show that is required. unfortunately this has only worked once.
    What have I Tried To fix this i hear you cry well...
    Under Tiger:
    complete os rebuild, disabling firewall, rebuilding mac subnet from ground up playing sequentially with advanced router properties (yes i do know what i am doing, I'm a paid IT Technician) calling in a friend with networking and IT communications degree to help, calling in father with 20 years corporate network design experience.
    End result? nothing changed in the way my network was setup, as nothing was wrong with the way i had it set up to begin with (that said the initial setup of the router justifies a whole f*ing essay). during this time all mac's at all times had current software. i took all software updates hoping for a fix. in the mean time using the workaround described above.
    Under Leopard:
    Are you Joking? even less functionality. after reading up and discovering you CAN'T DISABLE the leopard firewall yet, devised new work around (as above) worked once, gave up. too much to deal with with wifi connections under leopard dropping out continuously.
    Result: useless piece of kit with truly wonderful and sleek looking software interface.
    I think a large part of the problem is my laughable router which seems to flake out requiring a cold restart multiple times a day. (airport extreme 'n' 1st generation).
    Both are just under a year old. I'll wait for 10.5.2 + Apple TV update + update to airport extreme base station (hopefully when time caplsule comes out).
    If this doesn't resolve all my issues I'll just return ATV + AEBS, call it a day with apple networking and get a netgear n router, and one of those network HDD's with video playing capability and a tv output and hook both things up by my tv. no video conversion to itunes required. wireless n access to my media. half the cost, job done.
    Don't get me wrong, mac's are still amazing but these two devices have shattered my faith in apple products, unless it's a mac or an iPod, I'll steer clear in future.
    I would go back to Tiger but it is too much hassle now. They'll fix the WIFI and the firewall in 10.5.2 at which point there'll be nothing to stop me using my machines with leopard. updates for pro software continue to be released and nearly all of my applications worked with a clean install anyway.
    Back to the topic, has anyone else got an ATV with leopard that does nothing at all? i want to be able to say to them that the product they sold me is not fit for purpose and return it under that premise.
    Also if anyone has a fix (non voodoo please) I'd gladly eat my hat and just start using the bloody thing, albeit 10 months after purchase.

    You say you tried switching off the firewall i tried that too and your quite right it seems that it will not work with the firewall off. as turning it off does not turn it off.
    sos10: "I did make sure however iTunes wasn't on the list in the Firewall settings."
    The list your talking about (if you're talking about the leopard firewall) is the list of programs WITH access. so if you have it set to: "set access for specific services and applications"; iTunes would have to be in that list with "allow all incoming connections".
    The only other setting is essential services only which doesn't work. As this doesn't include the port we need to get a connection.
    out of the three the one that works the most is the: "set access for specific services and applications"
    iTunes - "allow all incoming connections"
    This i when i get the odd reminder vis the devices list that i have a useless £200 electrical device heating up my front room.
    Maybe this wouldn't be such a problem if you could actually open a port in a firewall (shock horror). I know they'd have to hide the option away somewhere so as not to mess up the simplicity of the interface!

  • Folder Action Problems with Leopard 10.5.8

    My company recently upgraded from 10.4.11 to 10.5.8 and our folder actions have been stopping mid-process or not working at all. Sometimes a few files will process and then everything stops completely.
    Our workflow involves the use of several different hot folders that use folder actions (converting InDesign CS4 documents to various quality of PDFs). All of the actions are single stream, meaning each folder does the action it's assigned and the original file is trashed and the new file remains in the folder. There are no subsequent folder actions that pull from the newly processed files. We also only run one folder action (with several files dropped in it) at a time.
    I have also tried running a pre-made generic folder action script from Apple and it, too will stop mid-process, process a few files then stop, or not work at all.
    Does anyone know what might be causing this problem with either the new Applescript or Folder Actions with Leopard 10.5.8?

    I have several scripts that all work different ways. One script I have opens the InDesign document, exports a PDF to a different folder located elsewhere on the hard drive (where a different script searches for PDFs). After this the original document is sent to the trash. Nothing new is created in the original Folder Action Scripted folder.
    What's more, even Apple's stock Folder Actions don't work properly and stop mid-process. I've seen vague reports of 10.5.8 having issues with Applescript or Leopard in general. The fact this script works perfectly in 10.4.11 makes me think that something has changed with the way Leopard handles the FA's.

  • Printing problems with InDesign CS3 with Mac OS 10.6.3

    I am not new to InDesign... I have CS3... but I am brand new to Mac Snow Leopard (OS 10.6.3).  Although I can open CS3 and use the application, I cannot print with it.  None of my other applications has printing issues... just CS3.  Any suggestions?
    Richard

    Hi again Peter
    It is version 5.0.4.  I updated it when I newly installed it a week ago in my new computer, and then again updated it just yesterday.
    I might mention that before I got my new computer, I was running Mac OS 4.11, and was using InDesign 3.0.  I had bought InDesign CS3 about a year ago, but hadn't gotten around to using it since version 3.0 had been working fine, and I was used to it.  Then, when I got my new computer, I decided it was time to use the newer version.  However, while using InDesign 3.0 with the old Mac OS 4.11, a printing problem popped up there, too, a few months ago... and it also involved printing problems with Adobe Reader.  I contacted Adobe, and they sent me a patch which fixed it.  I will contact Adobe again if need be, although I thought I'd start here first to see if it was a common enough problem that someone might be able to provide a free and routine answer.

    I neglected to ask what version of indesign CS3 you are using. I also 
    notice that Mac OSX 10.6.4 has just been released. It actually 
    addresses some CS3-specific issues, though they seem to be related to 
    launching the apps, not printing. It may be worth trying to update, 
    nonetheless.

  • Indesign Crash using Leopard 10.5

    I installed Leopard 10.5 last night and my Adobe InDesign (version 5.0) program crashes everytime I try to open it. My other Adobe CS3 programs seem to be working fine. Adobe's website says there are compatibility problems with some elements of Adobe CS3, but claims that InDesign is compatible with Leopard. I am on vacation in New York and don't have access to my Adobe discs to reinstall the program. Is anyone else having this same problem? Are there any patches I could download to fix it? Help!

    WOOOO HOOOO! IT IS JUST A FONT CONFLICT!!!!! I think....
    After days of trying to figure out why, after installing Leopard, InDesign CS3 crashes every time I tried to open "certain" files... I finally figured it out - at least on my system. I emphasize "certain" files, because InDesign would open certain InDesign files flawlessly... and crash when trying to other InDesign files. I narrowed it down to a handful of files and the only thing that these files had in common was one particular font. Well as it turns out, upon installation, Leopard put a bunch of new fonts into my system folder. I am also using Suitcase Fusion to manage my fonts. When starting the "culprit" files, Suitcase Fusion would try to "auto-activate" a font that was already activated at start-up in the system folder. After removing the "duplicate" font from my system folder - and restarting my computer - everything was back to normal seems to work fine now. I am not much of a computer technician.... but this worked for me. Let me know if this helps you too.

  • What's wrong with Leopard mail, its allowed in, something corrupting my mac

    Hi,
    I recently bought a brand new 24 inch iMac and Leopard. Most things were fine until I received an unsolicited email on 28th Nov ...from a
    Gemma Hindley FW; Compost like a pro
    since then mail has gone haywire. I cannot delete this email at all. I cant receive any emails and I work from home and am really desperate as this is causing me major stress.
    The waste paper icon has gone from my mail window and although emails are deleted from the working window, the dont go in the waste bin or the waste bin in the dock.When I quit ad reopen Gemma Hindley reappears.
    Many times a completely different window appears when I open mail one that I have never seen before and is very difficult to navigate. many of the icons in the mail header bar are non operative with this window.
    Other times Mail wont open, or wont quit, or cant send emails, have nt received any since Gemma this email. Then I went through this forum and found that if I
    Open mail go to prefs general and switch check mail "manually.
    Force quit mail
    Open Mail again go to prefs junk mail and turn off spam filtering
    This then allowed me to open the usual mail working window and I received that infuriating email again and no other ones at all. I have sent myself emails and so have others but they have not been received by me at all. the above steps allowed me to send emails.
    There is obviously a problem with Leopard mail. Whether or not this email has corrupted my mac I don't know. It looks like it is blocking all my incoming emails.
    I am not as adept as many of you on this forum, just a simple user trying to earn a living and not able to do so at present. Help greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance. George UK

    For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
    If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
    Problem solved.
    And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions.

  • Help trying to create a 2 page indesign doc with 1 landscape & 1 portrait page?

    I'm creating a double sided A5 flyer, how do I create a 2 page indesign document with one page portrait & the other landscape?
    Thank you in advance for anyone who can help with this ;-)

    You can use the Page tool to change one, but if it's going to print I think it would be better to make them both either ladscape or portrait, then use Rotate Spread View in the Pages panel to make one appear inthe other orientation on screen while work.

  • Constant lock ups with Leopard!

    I find myself having to hold in the power button to turn my computer off almost everyday now! I am not sure what is causing these constant lock ups! Ever since upgrading to Leopard have I noticed this. Yesterday It happened when trying to open iTunes. Today it happened when I clicked on MAIL. The icon just bounces in the dock and nothing happens. I hit FORCE QUIT and that doesn't work either.
    Do I need to clear something out or get rid of something? Even when I try to restart my computer sometimes that will lock up too! The only way to get around any of these issues is to hold in the power button to turn the whole computer off, wait a few seconds and turn it back on. Once its back on, then I have full functionality out the computer again but its getting on my nerves that I have to do this all to often!
    I think they are some cool features with Leopard but I am experiencing way to many bugs/problems with it to be 100% happy with it.
    As I am writing this posting, I just clicked on my APPLE icon in the top left of the screen and then clicked ABOUT THIS MAC to make sure I was using the most current version, and NOTHING happened!

    Try reinstalling. It sounds like you did an upgrade from an earlier version that may have been corrupt to start with. You may be able to do the following:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • Installing Tiger on a Macbook Pro that came only with Leopard

    Hi guys,
    Any ideas on how to install Tiger onto a Macbook Pro that came preloaded with Leopard, and only has a Leopard disc?
    I've got a refurbished Macbook Pro recently. Realised that one of my application doesn't work, Capture One Pro. Visited Phase One's website and they said it only supports 3.9 and above at the time it was released, which makes it 10.4.10.
    Systems in the story below: Macbook Pro Core Cuo. Macbook Pro C2D (new set), Mac Pro, iMac Core 2 Duo
    Here's what I've tried
    1. I've an original disk that came with my MBP CD. When I try to boot from that disk on my MBP C2D, it gives me the crash screen -> "please hold the power for secs to restart".
    2. I've tried installing Tiger onto my iMac and did a harddisk clone via Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) to my MBP CD. Tiger was able to run on my MBP CD fine.
    3. Then I tried using CCC to clone it over to my MBP C2D. It doesn't work. Shows me the crash screen.
    4. I've tried installing Tiger on my Mac Pro. Used CCC to clone over the disk image to MBP C2D. Doesn't work too. Crash screen.
    5. Created disk images of Tiger with Disk Utility on iMac, Mac Pro. Tried to restore using the iMac, Mac Pro disk images of Tiger. Doesn't work. Shows me the crash screen.
    6. Updated Tiger to 10.4.11 on my Mac Pro. Created disk image using Disk Utility. Restored MBP C2D with it. Crash screen on load.
    I'm out of ideas and Apple Support won't open until Monday.
    It seems that this MBP C2D is set on not installing Tiger, no matter what. Wonder if getting hold of a Tiger retail disc will do the trick?

    You can install tiger onto a MacBook Pro up to version 3,1.
    Run System Profiler and under hardware:
    Hardware Overview:
    Model Name: MacBook Pro
    Model Identifier: MacBookPro4,1 This line is the model number!
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 1
    Total Number Of Cores: 2
    L2 Cache: 3 MB
    Memory: 2 GB
    Bus Speed: 800 MHz
    Boot ROM Version: MBP41.00C1.B00
    SMC Version: 1.27f1
    Serial Number: XXXXXXXXXXX
    Sudden Motion Sensor:
    State: Enabled
    I have got tiger installed onto this MacBookPro which is the latest 4,1 model, but you require the latest Tiger disk (which the Apple Genius had in my case), but the volume, brightness and trackpad gestures do not work! Everything else is fine.

  • ATI Radeon 9600 Mac & PC Edition will not work with leopard

    When I installed a new ATI Radeon 9600 Mac & PC Edition, 256MB; my Dual 2 GHz G5 (June 2004) will not allow me to drive my Apple Cinema Display while running under leopard, (neither 10.5.1 or 10.5.2 with Leopard Graphics Update).
    The mac starts up as usual and gets to the white screen with Apple logo -then the progress ring eventually stalls. The mouse pointer becomes visible and can be moved freely around this screen.
    I can connect from other macs on the network and navigate files, but screen sharing results in an all black window.
    The Radeon 9600 works fine if I start up the mac with the Tiger installation disk.
    I have tried every suggestion that I could find on these boards and elsewhere: zapped the pram, reset the SMU, installed older ATI Drivers, etc...
    Of course the G5 is far out of warranty. I've been running Leopard since the day it shipped - so that's out of warranty now, and there is little help to be found on the ATI/AMD website. I'm afraid I'll have to return the card before Apple releases another graphics update.
    The stock graphics card that came with this mac is the nVIDIA 64MB GeForce FX 5200 - but it's having trouble keeping up with Leopard's demands - my isight barely works, most special effects in iChat and PhotoBooth are unusable, and of course I'm not given the option to use a transparent menu bar,
    I am really good at swapping video cards in the G5 now - but I'm so frustrated.
    Does anyone else have any suggestions?
    thanks

  • I am trying to finish a book in InDesign CS2 with another person. My old XP computer became unstable and I had to get a Windows 7 computer. I was able to install CS2 on the Virtual XP Machine on my Windows 7 computer, but I cannot register or activate it.

    I am trying to finish a book in InDesign CS2 with another person. My old XP computer became unstable and I had to get a Windows 7 computer. I was able to install CS2 on the Virtual XP Machine on my Windows 7 computer, but I cannot register or activate it. Adobe no longer supports activation. Is there a way I can keep using CS2? I need to get files back and forth to my coauthor. I also have CS6. I understand that files can go form 2 to 6, but not backwards. Thanks Robert

    you can download a new installer and serial number from Adobe at Adobe - CS2 Downloads

  • Can't automatically connect to my home airport with Leopard

    After I installed Leopard on my MacBook Pro, I can no longer automatically join my home (Airport) network. I have an antique (flying saucer shaped) airport hub that has worked perfectly for our home network up until now. In order to connect, I have to open Safari, wait for the Network Diagnostic button to appear, then go through the Network Diagnostic sequence. Sometimes it will ask for the password and sometimes not. I called Apple Support and they said that the new Airport utility (with Leopard) will not work on the older Airport hubs. They then transferred me to the Airport specialists, but after 15 minutes of waiting I gave up. I don't really want to spend the money to upgrade to an Airport Extreme, when the current hub works. But, on the other hand, it is a bit of a pain to go through this every time I turn on or wake up my MBP. Does anyone have any ideas how to address this problem?
    Thanks.

    Hello, andyBall_uk. I figured out the problem, and I'm going to reply to it on here in case anybody else has the same issue they can see this solution. I already had an iOS device before, which saved a "keychain" of the old login info for the router. This was back when the router did have WEP security. Since then, it has been reconfigured for WPA2 however my old keychain was trying to join it as WEP.
    To solve this, I went to System Preferences>Network>Advanced
    From here, I noticed the
    [ + ] [ - ] Drag Networks into the order you prefer
    Highlighting my router and hitting the [ - ] sign removed the keychain that would previously only connect as WEP. This now allowed my computer to automatically connect to the router every time I opened it or turned it on.

    How long has this been possible? I see if you have iTunes 10.3 you can now search for, find and purchase ibooks directly from iTunes! You need to allow automatic downloads (via Settings: Store on your ios device). At last! Robin
