Has anyone noticed any speed improvements with this release, specifically Open GL stuff on Powerbook G4s?. I'm interested to see how this update goes as the last OS X update (10.3.4) made my graphics sloooooooow down. I'm hoping this one will speed them back up

Installed on 1.33 12" PB ... it has fixed the iSync/P900 problem, thankfully.

Still no support for my Motorola V400 in iSync or the Finder (yet it shows up in System Profiler)

Why did I buy this stupid phone and USB cable?

Why did you? Did someone tell you they worked well? You should probably slap that person.

I don't care what else 10.3.5 fixes, this was the only thing I was hoping for! The moment that I'd rebooted the powerbook, after installing the update, I was re-pairing the phone and checking iSync.

Thank you, to the bluetooth-monkey at Apple for fixing whatever they broke in 10.3.4.

I just expected Apple would support this very popular line of phones in the near future, the V300, V400 (both USB) and V600 (Bluetooth). They support a whole slew of other Motorola phones. People looking to get their V-series phones working in OS X are screwed.

There's always the rumoured iSync 1.5 update to look forward to. Maybe that will help somewhat. Mind you, it will be very interesting (and probably slightly painful) to see which devices have syncing problems once Tiger appears with its new sync engine.

New Active Directory Plug-in: Version 1.0.4 now.

iSync 1.5?

Maybe it will finally allow my phone (and the other V-series) to sync with Address Book and iCal, but I also want to be able to manage my phone's memory. It's got 5MB and can play mp3 ringtones, it also stores pictures taken with its built-in camera. If only OS X could mount it like a Nokia. Until then, I'm stuck with boring polymorphic tones and spending $.25 to send pictures to my email address.

I have a V600, and I've painfully come to realize that we probably won't get support until Tiger comes out. Why? The VXXX phones all use SyncML (an open standard btw), which won't be supported until Tiger.

I'll just have to use OnSync until then. Which makes you wonder, if a small developer can pull off contact syncing with this phone, what's Apple been up to? I love my phone, but the lack of iSync support really sucks.

I had the game "Return of the King" and it became unplayable with 10.3.4. After installing 10.3.5, I tried it again, and it's back to the way it was with 10.3.3 (or at least back to being playable again). This is on an 800 Mhz PowerBook. That's the only game I've tried, but I assume it was the same issue that was affecting all the other games.

I'd be interested in hearing if it helped others.

Where did you hear this?

After updating to 10.3.5, clicking on the finder icon in the dock no longer activates a new window (if none are open). This worked in all previous versions of OSX.
