Apple today released iLife Support 8.1 which supports system software components shared by all iLife ’08 applications, improves overall stability, addresses a number of other minor issues, and supports general compatibility issues. It is recommended for all users of iLife ’08.
iLife Support 8.1 is available via Software Update and also as a standalone installer.
More info and download link (7MB) here.
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Reader “Jim – TIV” for the heads up.]
I don’t have iLife 08, and yet, my TiPB running 10.4.10 downloaded it thru SU. I do have iWorks 08, so perhaps the new iWorks also needs the iLife Support 8.1.
I don’t have iLife 08 either, but myLife 9/07 seems a lot snappier after this update.
Let me know when they fix Safari from crashing 3 times a day.
Glad to see that Apple is expanding into the medical niche! iLife Support should be a big hit at the hospitals.

Take out your haxies and plug-ins and stop complaining.
It’s snappier
Revolutionary New Products Coming Your Way!
NO NEED FOR THIS i CRAP!!!!!
The cat is out of the bag! We will be releasing MSWorks 9 soon, the thing is it will be in the CLOUD! It will run on absolutely any computer with a broadband internet connection and running Windows Vista Ultimate with IE9. The new revolutionary part is that it will be totally web-based and ad-driven. Totally free to anyone who registers and passes the WGA test.
Store your .doc, .ppt, .xls files online! We have rock solid security built in this system, nobody, not even you will be able to access your files locally! The future is coming, I can feel it coming straight at me like a freight train!
For those who haven’t upgraded to Vista, do so now, don’t let this train miss you.
There’s a new era coming, get onboard!

I’d love to but I have no hacks and the only plug ins are necessities like flash, java and Flip4mac.
If can’t run on the internet without them, what’s the point?
@GmanMac – Not sure what’s wrong with your machine, but I’m pretty sure it’s not Safari. I’ve been using 3.0.3 ever since it was released, and I average about one crash a week — usually on a site that’s geared up to run IE. Either you’re hitting a lot of badly written websites, or there’s some other issue affecting Safari (possibly a corrupt preference file?).
I’d try loading a new version of Safari 3 (don’t worry, it keeps your bookmarks and cookies safe), then do a Permissions Repair. See if that doesn’t help. Or perhaps you have an odd 3rd-party hack that’s lurking around that you’ve forgotten about??
The iLife support showed up in Software Update for me too and I don’t have iLife 08, just iWork 08. I didn’t install it but wonder if there is some benefit to iWork from the update.
