The 10.6.4 Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Snow Leopard. It includes Safari 5 and general operating system fixes that enhance the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac, including fixes that:
• resolve an issue that causes the keyboard or trackpad to become unresponsive
• resolve an issue that may prevent some Adobe Creative Suite 3 applications from opening
• address issues copying, renaming, or deleting files on SMB file servers
• improve reliability of VPN connections
• resolve a playback issue in DVD Player when using Good Quality deinterlacing
• resolve an issue editing photos with iPhoto or Aperture in full screen view
• improve compatibility with some braille displays
Mac OS X 10.6.4 is avalaible via Software Update and also via standalone installers.

MacDailyNews Take: Because their servers are running sooo smoothly today.
Roby, are you sure that download was three minutes? Or were you toking for three minutes? Just curious. Perhaps I mis-understood your post. I haven’t gone for Safari 5 yet, so this looks like a great way to update both Browser and OS with one click. Glad to hear there are no concerns with this.
Cheers
Until it’s 10.7, it just won’t be Super Pussy.
To Roby Toke: “It toke 3 minues.” It combines minuets, minxes and the Minotaur into a trilogy and explains itself depending on how much you toke.
And how often, minxes.
Well, enough smalltalk for one night.
HAH ! !
I think it was a mistake for Apple to include Safari 5 in this update. That ought to be a separate choice.
Also, Security Update part mentions installing Flash 10.0.45. If you have Flash 10.1, the updater does not override it.
Also, helpful to Repair Permissions after install. There’s a few repairs in there.
FYI – There is a Security Update for Leopard, also released on 06/15/10 along with Snow Leopard 10.6.4, that has the corresponding security updates for the existing 10.5.8 release of Leopard.
I would guess that there’s been some sort of video card driver update, because my screens (MBP 15″ i7) look somewhat sharper and brighter than before.
Or it could be part of the ATE… Ampar Toke Effect.
All these comments and no one used the ‘S’ word?
Wow that’s great news for everyone, apple release a new product, and i think it would be much better.

I also had a Performa and the graphics card wouldn’t support millions of colors, which PhotoShop required, so I took it back to yes, Circuit City, and they upgraded me to a Power Mac 7500 100 mhz with huge 15″ (13.7 viewable) display. Boy, was I smok’in. I later paid $700 to put a second 2 gig hard drive inside. Yes, it was a desktop and not a tower, yet still held two hard drives and had 8 ram slots and two graphics card slots. Pretty innovative back then. She is still running, but ADB and Serial ports really stink now.
Doesn’t Apple use Akamai for software updates?
The Cut and Paste does not work in Safari, mail, or even word.
The command key(s) work just fine on my keyboard.
@ @ hoping it’s so
“Random pic sorting on iPhone and iPad was really really silly given that we gave money to Apple for that otherwise fine product (Aperture).”
I’m trying to figure out why Aperture is a fine product. I finally got a chance to sit down at the Apple store and play with it on a 27″ iMac yesterday, and I’m finding it hard to say anything good about it compared to even the previous version of Lightroom.
For one thing, no gradients? That’s a deal breaker right there. Other than that, the app fells like a still-childish slightly-older-sister to iPhoto.
Does not show up in my software updates. WTF???
