Stacks Freezing in Leopard 10.5.2 »
If you’re having problems (as I am) with your stacks freezing since updating to 10.5.2, Linotype FontExplorer X is the likely culprit. Stacks will work in list mode, but any other mode causes the Dock to freeze. I don’t know if this is a Leopard problem or FontExplorer X problem, but I hope an update that resolves the issue is released quickly. Turning FontExplorer off isn’t really an option.
UPDATE: There’s an update already available from Linotype for FontExplorer X that fixes the problem. Nice response.

Leopard to Tiger iPhone Syncing Woes »
Seems there are issues syncing the iPhone between the two operating systems. While I have the Leopard upgrade for my work machine, I haven’t installed it yet. I’ve upgraded all my home Macs though. I stopped syncing my PDAs between home and work machines over a year ago because of too many conflicts, no matter what solutions or apps I tried. I’m so used to not syncing with my work computer I hadn’t even tried yet. Good to know I need to do the upgrade first.
