“In the wake of Apple’s recently released Mac OS X 10.5.6 update, assorted problems have been reported following the upgrade,” Chris Barylick reports for O’Grady’s PowerPage.
“According to MacFixIt, a number of users have reported problems of Mac OS X 10.5.6 booting into the Setup Assistant program upon startup. Though Apple seems to have addressed this problem since Mac OS X 10.5 (‘Leopard’) was first released, the bug has surfaced over on the Apple Discussions board,” Barylick reports.
“In some cases, users have reported that the battery menu has failed to work properly after updating to Mac OS X 10.5.6 and that some menu bar options are no longer present,” Barylick reports.
“Finally, a number of users have reported that Mac OS X’s Spotlight feature is not indexing one or all disks properly for later searching,” Barylick reports.
