Apple released patches for several apps in the iLife ’08 Suite. iPhoto 7.1.4 is the only one that contains feature enhancements in addition to the typical “compatibility” and “stability updates”: This update contains new holiday greeting card and postcard themes for use with Apple print products. There’s also iMovie 7.1.4, iWeb 2.0.4, and a general iLife Support 8.3 update. All three contain the terse description: This update improves overall stability and addresses a number of other minor issues.

iWeb 2.0.3 Released By Apple
Apple has released and update for iWeb. iWeb 2.0.3 has the wordy description of: This update addresses compatibility with Mac OS X. It’s available through Apple software update and as a direct download. No reboot was required when I installed the update. Since there’s not much else to say about this update I’ll throw in a little rant. Apple released iWork updates yesterday and an iWeb update today. There’s no security implications mentioned. Couldn’t they have released them at the same time so I’d only be interrupted once? It’s not [...] Read the rest »

Apple Updates iWeb ’08
Apple released an update to the still fresh iWeb ’08. It updates iWeb to version 2.0.1. In typical terse Apple fashion they describe the update as: “These update addresses issues with upgrading and publishing iWeb 1.x websites.” I did have a problem after I upgraded iWeb but no idea if this fixes it. I upgraded iWeb which the upgraded my Domains file (the file is specific to iWeb, it’s not a networking file). I then deleted the website but the domain file still contained the source for the website (1.5MB [...] Read the rest »

Apple made their Mac announcements today. As with most Apple events it generated tons of speculation. What they did announce was: New Hardware Apple replaced their iMac line with new models. They dropped the 17″ iMac and replaced it with a 20″ low-end iMac. A 20″ iMac and a 24″ iMac are available at the mid-level with 2.4GHz processors. A 24″ iMac at the high-end that has a 2.4Ghz processor. Most of the reports I saw left this 4th iMac out but it’s at the Apple store (click the pic [...] Read the rest »
Bits and Pieces
Another week has gone by. It being tax time and all (yea I waited) I didn’t have time to put together any additional articles but I do have a bunch of little things I’ve either started or have noticed around the web. Rather than a lot of small posts, or ignoring them completely, I decided to summarize them here. Software News Hawk Wings had news of Correo 0.2 which is an open source e-mail client based on Camino and Thunderbird. With my move off of mail.app due to some problems [...] Read the rest »
