[highjumppudding]

excellent. hope this fixes issues. they have been working on this one for a while. should be good. is this a sign of imminent macbook and macbook pro refreshes?

btw - mac pro 8-core, early 2008 - 321 MB

Wow, that was kinda unexpected
Good news for my MBA, for the last days it was spinning its Airs non-stop @ 6200 rpm...

26 minutes?? Time to trade in that 56k modem there, eh? Mine took 4 minutes to download.

Actually I have DSL.

same here - I have a 2mb connection. Usually Apple's servers really fly but I guess its just demand and I cant utilise any extra bandwith

Better iCal and iPhone sync, does this mean we get category colors?

downloading now and the download server feels pretty slow right now
btw 321 MB on a MBP late 2007.

I just finished d/ling and installing as well. Servers on Apple's side were slow for me as well. So far, so good. It looks like it had to restart twice. Thanks, Apple!

Give us reports!

A bunch of you already told us that you're downloading it now, but don't forget to give us a report on how it's working for you! And please do it as soon as possible so us more cautious upgraders can know whether or not we should take the leap.

My iMac with Leopard 10.5.4 has actually been acting really weird lately. It seems to be getting slower and slower and there's been lots of keyboard and mouse delay. Even my non-technical wife has commented that "the computer is slower".

I'm been thinking about backing up all my data and doing a total fresh reinstallation.

Here's hoping 10.5.5 makes things go back to normal.

I have the same issue as yourself with my MBP SR. Hoping this fixes it.

What is the build number?

 

[Eidorian]

This is a big surprise. I'll be more confident once the Combo updater hits.

 

[soLoredd]

Updating as I type...and pray.

"Please don't break anything. Please don't break anything."

 

[MacMuttonchops]

No problems for me. Restarted and chimed twice. Don't really notice anything that screams new.

Build is 9F33 for those that asked.

 

[stenosis.kill]

[minik]

What is the build number?

Downloading now ... waiting for the analysis for the MacBook, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air numbers that may be embedded in the build!

 

[itickings]

The list of fixes looks promising, some long overdue, but I'll wait a bit and let some of you try it first.

Yeah, I know. A bit egoistic and not helping the community... Sorry

 

[Papajohn56]

Can I play freaking Diablo 2 again on my MBP?!

No Copy/Paste or SMS!!???

Huh? Apple does make something other than phones - this is a Mac update.

But Safari feels snappier.

My Safari just snapped. DO NOT GET 10.5.5

 

[Gm7Cadd9]

feels snappier

I am more stoked about the 10.5.5 server update, fixed a bunch of Active Directory integration issues.

 

[Techguy172]

Mine installed fine don't notice too many differences, however mail does feel faster, I'm hoping this update will get rid of the tearing dock on my dell monitor. Animations also seem to work a bit better.
