I’m fortunate. My upgrade to 10.5.3 from 10.5.2 took about 15 minutes and went off without a hitch. Sadly, some people aren’t as lucky.
No notable differences jump off the screen, though the fix to Spaces is quite nice. Before, if I had two windows from the same app — Say, Firefox — in two different spaces, a click on the Dock icon would take me back to the first one, no matter what space I was in. This now just takes me to the one in the space I’m in, or else to the first one. I like it.
You might still want to back up, but after bravely facing sniper fire, I declare the update ready to go.
tried upgrading to latest leopard update. took over an hour and now the computer just hangs at the grey screen with the apple in the middle and the whirly thing.
How do I unjam that?
Same here Matt, I took the plunge as well and successfully updated in around 20 mins, not much longer than your time. I don’t see where everyone could have been having problems… it was pretty simple for me
