Leopard Under Control?

It’s a request made by a visitor. Couldn’t say no, because the idea is very interesting.
In this post, I’m going to “list” all the howtos and tutorials I wrote previously on Leopard: from the installation to networking.
This “guide” is mainly intended to people who (like me) did an archive & install of Apple’s latest Operating System.

  1. Things to do before installing Mac OS X Leopard
  2. It would be important to know which of your applications aren’t Leopard ready (example: if you are working on a non Leopard ready application, it would be safer to wait before installing 10.5)
  3. You May already have heard about the Leopard’s Blue Screen Of Death.. You have to read this to solve/avoid having that issue
  4. Installing Leopard in Target Disk Mode may be required for some Mac users, here’s the tutorial
  5. Now, Leopard’s installed, there will be a permissions problem (if you did an Archive & Install); for example, your password will be asked every time you want to delete, move, edit a document; here’s the solution to fix your permissions.
  6. Some people finds the new Dock distractive or just didn’t like it, here’s the how to revert the 3D dock to a 2D (Tiger) looking one.
  7. And finally, another “common issue”, is that intermittent internet connection problem: some has their internet connection often cut down, some others have a lower speed connection, this is what I did to “fix” as much as I could this problem.
