Nine updates and Apple still couldn't fix Duplicate for CD's.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's broken in Leopard, too. :rolleyes:

Insert a CD (e.g. a music CD) > right click the CD icon on the desktop > Duplicate

It worked as it should on 10.3 Panther

It has been broken in Tiger from the start.

Strange, it worked for me :)

Nope. 10.5 is next, we will have it in about a months time.

Also, volume on my MBP is the same. Looks like it has increased the volume on MacBooks and iMacs.

How do you know this? It sounds like you're just speculating. I doubt it, but if some security issue is discovered in 10.4, there's no reason a .1x release would be out of the question.

Yip audio is a fair bit louder on my iMac 17"

allways thought it was a bit on the low side.

I agree. Even on max, I always thought my iMac was quieter than I would have liked. This update fixes it, though.

Another little hidden change is that you have to hold down the Eject key for it to work. So now if you accidently press it you wont eject a disc.

I thought the update broke my button. lol. I like this change and I do something hit it accidently.

I wish they would somehow fix the CPU whine though.

So I finally installed the update yesterday after work,as the progress bar was about to hit 100% I got a Kernel Panic for the first time since getting my MBP last year. My heart stopped for a sec, anyhow after turning of the Nothebook as per the error message it booted fine into OS X...I am just glad it didn't mess up the OS as I had a lot of data that had not been backed up.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣

      Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.

      This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.

      Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.

      If the drive/memory is soldered to the board, which it probably is, then it's a no from me
