  • I can’t believe I didn’t think to test this: Time Machine can also use a disk connected to your Airport Extreme as a backup location, hooray!

    Yes, the Extreme is named Express. Force of habit of calling it that for years, sorry.

  • Time Machine drop down in menubar
  • Hey, look – Time Machine can backup to a network drive again!

  • Translucent Menu bar option in Desktop Preferences

  • Better Stacks options, including List, Folder and Grid views

    ‘Folder’ shows the icon as, well, a Folder and ‘Stack’ shows the most recent documents icon.

This one is for commenter #14…

The 10.5.2 release of Leopard is expected to be released at any time.

  • I dont like the Translucent Menubar. Dont understand why apple not include it on Leopard 10.5 . Butt better late then never.

    Look forward to this!

    But I *love* the translucent menu bar, still highly visible text (maybe not for old people though, but then OS X fonts are probably too small anyway), and aesthetically blends better into the desktop.
  • Looks good. I hope they will release it soon.
  • DeaconFrost
    Hopefully the smb-mounting issue is solved?
  • A nice update! I hope it will be released soon!
  • xgonin
    Any news about the delivery date for this update ?
  • Rolf
    I don't want new features! I want to get rid of the numerous bugs in 10.5.1!
    Let them focus on that!

    Sorry to say people but the translucent menu bar option is gone in the latest update 9C16... maybe they'll put it back in later....
  • ScottMac
    Incorrect, #14. See above post.
  • R Anderson
    Rich: the translucent menu bar doesn't show up at all on older machines. Are you using an older Mac? Could it be that the preference setting doesn't show at all in those cases?
  • MAsh

    "Time Machine can also use a disk connected to your Airport Express as a backup location."

    hard to belief but if this is true it's fantastic !
  • Love the updates! Bring 'em on!
  • Ryrobes
    Nice. I just want the damn thing to come out already - I've got my fingers crossed that they fixed the dodgy WiFi access that my Macbook Pro has.... oh, yeah, it'd be nice if I didn't have to re-type the first letter after not using the keyboard for a few seconds too.

    Check-boxes for the translucent menu bar be damned... I just want a usable machine!
  • Why is the graphic of the Airport Express actually an Airport Extreme?
