Typo: In those 12 hours of usage, I actually had the key repeat bug happen twice. |

I only rarely had this problem before on my MacBook Pro, but I installed the update. Now, in about 12 hours of usage, I've had a key get stuck repeating for 2 - 3 seconds. The keyboard and trackpad became unusable while the key was stuck repeating, and for about 2 seconds afterwards. This is quite aggravating. This is a much more annoying problem than the previous issue. Anyone else experiencing this? |

Turns out I posted rather hastily. Checked my ~/src directory, and indeed I had modified the source for 0.8.1, to force it to set LSUIElement to 1 no matter what. Will do the same to 0.8.2. |

I'd like SSHKeychain to not display itself at all in the dock or menu bar. This worked fine in 0.8.1 by setting it to Dock-only and setting LSUIElement to 1 in the Info.plist. However, in 0.8.2, LSUIElement reverts to 0 and the dock icon shows up anyways. Locking the Info.plist causes the app to quit after a few seconds. Does anyone know how I might fully hide SSHKeychain without mucking with the source? (I have to add, this is one of the most useful pieces of MacOS freeware out there!) |

Tunnelblick unexpectedly quits for me sometimes. This seems to happen when changing network connections, but not always. (I'm semi-frequently switching between my Airport and an EV-DO card.) When it happens, it leaves behind a stray openvpn process that I have to manually kill before I can establish another VPN connection. Tunnelblick will actually establish a new connection successfully, but it will be unusable unless I've killed the old openvpn process first. I'm running 10.5 on a MBP, clean install. Worked fine under 10.4. Anyone else experiencing this under 10.5? |

Applied the update. After my system had been up for about half an hour, all sound output stopped working. Any application that tried to output sound would freeze and require a manual kill. Couldn't even get to the Sound prefpane. I tried restarting coreaudiod, no effect. I slept and unslept the machine, no effect. I eventually rebooted, and the problem resolved. I have never seen this happen before this update, so I suspect it may be linked since it happened right after I updated. Has anyone else had odd audio freezes like this? I did zap my PRAM after the firmware update. |

It turned out to be my own stupidity. I reinstalled my OS and didn't realize I had to re-run the Airport Extreme enabler as well, so I had no 802.11n support. Now if I could only get these throughput problems sorted out... |

Upgraded from 7.1.1 to 7.2.1. All of a sudden, I couldn't connect to my wireless network. Checked config, did a hardware reset, no go. I get that "Try Again" message from my MBP. I normally use 5GHz N-only mode. However, 2.4GHz mixed mode and 5GHz A/N mixed mode work fine! I tried turning off authentication, with no help. I even reverted back to 7.1.1, and the same problems continued. Right now I'm running with A+N support to get the damned thing working at all. |

I have friends with non-Apple pre-N gear. It'd be nice to be able to try their networks with my spiffy upgraded pre-N card... |

SOX compliance does not require this to be sold rather than given away for free. It would simply cost Apple more to take care of the accounting. I told myself that I would refuse to pay for this update or buy an Airport Extreme. Then I read the reviews of other pre-N routers and realized that for anything near the best performance, I'd have to get the Airport Extreme. So I admitted defeat and pre-ordered one. ...but the part that makes me REALLY angry: despite the fact that I have ordered the Airport Extreme, which includes this update for free, I cannot download it before the Airport Extreme ships. (I'd be fine with them charging the full amount on my credit card for the hardware to get around the obvious "we haven't billed you yet" argument, since it's close to shipping.) |

I love CTVD; it's the best workspace manager I've used under any OS. Unfortunately, it does not run on my MacBook Pro. The web page still says a fix is coming soon. Emails a couple months ago and a few days ago have gone unanswered. Does this company still exist? Is CTVD ever going to be updated? I'd sure like to use this product that I paid for until Leopard is out with Spaces. |
