I’m having sensitive mouse click behavior on my iMac. Click once on the top of a window and there it goes into the dock. Highlighting is a nightmare. Single click registers as double click. Go to delete one email and delete two. UGH!!

I downloaded and installed the OS update and my macbook sleep function got hosed. It would not come out of sleep without a hard reboot via power button. disk lights were spinning in sleeping mode.

I got my time machine disk and revertd back to before the update was applied all is well with this for a week, sleep works good comes out of sleep no prob.

i decided to download the update again last night. same thin, sleep is broke. here omes time machine backup again. I will not do another OS update.

Having a nightmare since trying to update to 10.5.7. When my pwbk 2core restarted after the download a dialogue box told me it was correcting caches. Since then I cannot access the internet (settings are ok in network), mail crashes.I am wondering how to undo the update. any ideas ?

Disabled Sleep in System Pref/Energy Saver. Just using screen saver, shutting down occasionally. No more freezes, fan noise. Waiting for next update, hoping Apple addresses the issue.

yes, my beautiful new mbp does not allow paste to x11, very frustrating, and limiting. (terminal serves as a work around for my needs of this moment)

Okay, so i DEFINITELY have a big problem with the SLEEP MODE issue after updating to 10.5.7 – and i’m quite worried about what i read concerning the MOTU interface (but haven’t checked mine yet) //// so WHY does this page start by telling everyone to INSTALL the update first? and WHY does apple say NOTHING about these details on their own site? and HOW can i re-install OS 10.5.6 (which worked just fine, btw). sorry bout all the CAPs, but it’s really frustrating…

Same issue. I installed 10.5.7 and on the second sleep attempt it locks up. I have to reboot. Very annoying as I am constantly sleeping my computer as I travel around. Apple this needs to get fixed ASAP!

Well 7 days without my MacBook now. They had to put a new logic
board in it. Lucky I have Apple care. All thanks to Apple updates. I
think the Smu firmware update is what killed mine.

My Mac Pro started up very fast (tens of seconds) before I installed the 10.5.7 update. It now takes about four minutes after the update. Repairing disk permissions had no effect. It just sits there with the blue screen and I cannot hear the disk doing anything.

It seems to be fine once it has started up.
