“• Resolves an issue in which Wikipedia information may not display correctly in Dictionary.”
Nice! This has been a problem for me, but I didn’t realize it was a bug in the OS, I just thought it was my system.
Feels Snappier ( just kidding )
First post? This is looking good for iTunes update and ios update to drop is week as well.
So I checked my backups-they were good-and did a disk repair for good measure. Hit the update button and about halfway through the download my iMac froze up.
Since I run off an external, I decided to update my internal first.
So far so OK.
Will wait a bit before trying the external again.
Upgraded – no problems so far.
Just updated my brand new 13″ MacBook Air. Everything went smoothly and I am happy to report that I’ve seen no issues so far. iWork was also updated.
@ Jacob
Does this fix the mistakes in Wikipedia, too?

Downloaded, updated, all systems go.
Seems to have fixed a QuickTime problem I was having, where QuickTime would freeze about 15 minutes into playback of any video file(mpeg4, xvid,divx, any iTunes video).
Updated my iMac and mini without a hitch.
Airprint included? Or was the last post stating Jobs email reply just bogus?
I dont see Airprint on the list.
Don’t yet see the Combo Updater. Am a bit worried that it might force the iTunes 10 update.
The “imminent” day is finally here. And 10.6.6 is supposedly adding support for the Mac App Store, so 10.6.5 to 10.6.6 may be a VERY short interval.
Hope it fixes my camera downloads. can’t down load them now into iphoto or imovie, hope the update corrects that.
Downloaded, installed, and running like a champ. Woo hoo!
680mb!!!!!!!!!
It broke “Letterbox” for Mail
There goes Widemail again 🙁
TT… what’s letterbox for mail?
Anybody got a link to the 10.5.6 combo updater on Apple’s website? I can’t find it anywhere.
I found a link to the 10.5.6 on Apple’s site but it goes nowhere.
Right. I should have said: Anybody got a working link?
Hey, Jim
It’s kind of like WideMail only more stable (in my case)

so I’m not the only one having trouble with finding the combo update. Nice to know but not helpful. Somebody post a link when they find it please. Keeping my eyes out too
I just ran “repair permissions” and came up with
“Warning: SUIDfile”System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAgent” has been modified and will not be repaired.” Does anyone know what the heck it means?
