What version of Leopard is shipping?

Can anyone who has purchased Leopard recently tell me whether he/she received 10.5.1 or 10.5.2 on the DVD? I've decided to what until 10.5.2 is shipping before ordering. In the European stores I see that the version is mentioned explicitly (10.5.1), whereas in the US store no version is given (10.5).
Thanks,

Hi Yang,
Some earlier versions of Leopard actually seem to have created problems during installation. For example, when updating Tiger some people reported that administrative accounts lost their permissions. Up to and including 10.5.1 there were still reports of dropped wireless connections, erratic keyboard behavior, etc. At least in some cases, I don't see how a subsequent update can fix the problem. For example, what distinguishes an account that used to have administrative rights under Tiger and lost them during migration to Leopard from one that never had them at all.
Admittedly, I don't know caused the problems. But I assume that 10.5.2. will not cause, or at least avoid, some of them, but I don't know whether it will fix them.
Regards,
Richard

What version of Leopard with what version of Logic is MOST STABLE??

A very simple question really. What version of Leopard, as of now, is the most stable and glitch-free with which version of Logic?? 10.5.1 vs. 10.5.2 vs. L7.2.3 vs. L8.??
Thanks,
Jeremy

Leopard 10.5.2 had introduced many problems, I'd say 10.5.1 is therefor the stable (or safer) one.
As for Logic, I think LP8 as a universal app is more at home with Intel Macs, but otherwise it's not that simple and you can read plenty opinions on this board on both sides.
I'd still go with LP8, people go back to L7 as last resort when something is not running well.

What version of iLife works with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and where can I buy it?

What version of iLife works with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and where can I buy it?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can install the latest version, iLife '11. It's available at the Mac App Store, but the versions available there aren't compatible with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, so you have to get iLife '11 on a DVD at eBay or Amazon > http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MC623Z-A-iLife-VERSION/dp/B003XKRZES
After installing it, open  > Software Update, and install the most recent version for Snow Leopard

HT2513 What version of iCal do I need to use with Mac OS X Snow Leopard? I upgraded to OS X 10.6.3 and my iCal 3.0.8 won't open.

I just upgraded to Mac OS X Snow Leopard version 10.6.3 and now my iCal 3.0.8 won't open at all. What version do I need to or should I upgrade to and where do I find it?

The version installed with Snow Leopard since iCal is part of OS X. If you are trying to use iCal from a different drive and version of OS X, then it won't work. If the installed version of iCal in Snow Leopard is the wrong version, then there was a problem. Delete the wrong version then reinstall Snow Leopard:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard 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 Utilities menu. 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 click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro 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. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

What version of Windows Office will work for my OS X 10.5.8, and also what is the most updated browser available for my system?

Sorry for my typo. Ofice 2008 will continue to run on Leopard and Leopard includes Safari 5.0.6. A G4 s an old machine and you will not get much speed when surfing the internet.
Leopard is no longer avilable from Apple, and costs around $200 on eBay or Amazon.

What version of SVNKit can we expect with 11g?

Hi,
JDev 11g TP4 uses SVNKit 1.1.4 which does not seem to work with the current version of Subversion Server (1.5.2).
Error: svn: Malformed Network Data
The current version of SVNKit is 1.2.0 so the latest JDev plugin is quite behind by a number of versions.
The only workaround at the moment is to downgrade Subversion server.
It would be disappointing for the new release of JDev to be shipped with a plug-in that will work with current release of Subversion, will this be the case?
thanks,
Brenden

Brenden,
I just did a test using JDeveloper 11g drop 6 (which is a build that Ace Directors got for testing, later than TP4, much earlier than 11g r1) - I was able to create a new application, import it into an SVN 1.5.2 repository (via HTTP), make some changes, and commit back to the repository.
When I use Tools->Preferences->Versioning->Subversion, I see it is using SVNKit 1.1.7 (r4142).
I do have the SVN Server installed on my laptop, so I went into the svnkit.jar (<jdev_home>/jdev/extensions/oracle.jdeveloper.subversion) and checked the JAR file - it is, in fact, 1.1.7.
Frank - could I ask you to clarify please (it's actually the reason I originally posted something and then deleted it). I know that JDev 11g is built on a SVN 1.4 client (not a 1.5) - I thought you may be confusing SVNKit version with SVN client version. Drop6 has svnkit 1.1.7, which does appear to work with Subversion 1.5.2 (according to [url http://www.nabble.com/svn:-Malformed-network-data-td16423851.html]this and [url https://svn.svnkit.com/repos/svnkit/tags/1.1.8/changelog.txt]this, it appears 1.1.7 is the first version to work properly with 1.5.x
I guess we'll find out in the next week or so (or so) what version SVNKit comes with 11g r1 - but it would be awesome if it were 1.1.7 at minimum (like drop 6)

Hi, I have been trying to update many things on my 2009 white macbook. Everytime I do it tells me I need a different version. I don't know what versions I need or even where to begin or if I need to purchase new hardware? Any suggestions?

Hi, I have been trying to update many things on my 2009 white macbook. Everytime I do it tells me I need a different version. I don't know what versions I need or even where to begin or if I need to purchase new hardware? It says my version is 10.5.8. I have tried downloading 10.6 but not sure what to do. Everyone else seems to be updating there's and mine is way behind however it still tells me I have no software updates...Any suggestions?

You have to understand the difference between an Update and an Upgrade.
An Update is a free change to add to the base code or as a bug fix within an existing Operating System. Such as the .8 added to 10.5.
An Upgrade is a complete new Operating System that must be purchased. Such as 10.5 Leopard to 10.6 Snow Leopard.
10.5 Leopard was based on Power PC code and was written to be able to run on both Power PC and Intel processors.
10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs.
10.7 Lion used some 32 bit which allows it to run on Late 2006 through Early 2008 MacBooks and a lot of 64 bit code.
10.8 Mountain Lion is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture.

The wording is confusing. I just tried one of the DLs and it is working. Whether it will actually install now, I have no idea. If the activation servers have been disabled (because of a technical issue), probably not. Whether this is only temporary, I have no idea. I would think Adobe would just withdraw the entire page if they wanted. From the time this first appeared a few weeks ago until now I know it was working and could be installed using the provided serial #s. There was nothing about needing to actually have purchased it originally.
Ginger:
I downloaded CS2 from the Adobe site BEFORE this recent notice was posted and it is the only version that I have and use.
The new notice is VERY confusing, because if you were a prior purchaser of it originally, why would you need their newly supplied serial number (which is what I use since I was NOT a prior purchaser. But again, when I downloaded and installed CS2 there was no such notice).
I suggest that you see if it downloads, installs and works with that serial number, as free is always better than not! (especially since it is known that iMac G5's are prone to hardware failure from bad capacitors! I had many of them...)

I don't know how strict the OS requirements are. I do know that my old G5 iMac, even upgraded to Leopard, was able to run CS2. In fact, using Rosetta, CS2 still runs on my Snow Leopard.
As you can see from the image, CS2 is running in my Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) environment in Parallels concurrently with Lion.
