Have no fear. SuperDuper v2.6.2 is here, it's compatible with Snow Leopard, and it's up to 2x faster! SuperDuper is the wildly acclaimed program that makes recovery painless, because it makes creating a fully bootable backup painless. Its incredibly clear, friendly interface is understandable, easy to use, and SuperDuper's built-in scheduler makes it trivial to back up automatically. It's the perfect complement to Time Machine under Leopard and Snow Leopard, allowing you to store a bootable backup alongside your Time Machine volume-and it runs beautifully on both Intel and Power PC Macs! SuperDuper's interface confirms all your actions in simple, clear language to ensure that the end result is exactly what you intended. Take a look, and click for additional screen shots!

The Leopard T&T doc has a few changes in format from the earlier Mac OS X versions. I took out any sections on imaging, and tried to pull the setup in tighter. There are too many things to cover in imaging, and so much of it involves 3rd party tools, that I decided to separate that out. My focus in this doc was to cover the keys points of MCX, why Leopard is important, mobile accounts, and PHDs (portable home directories).

To the Apple's windows management system i.e. Expose, Snow Leopard has added various new functions. As you were only able to view all the open windows as thumbnails on the desktop, the added feature of Expose now displays them as Dock icon. Expose will now display all the open documents by just clicking and holding the Microsoft Word icon in the Dock.

I copied this /etc/profile from a near-clean Mac OS X Server 10.5.4 after first puzzling over files at /etc/paths.d/ not having the desired effect, then reading at http://littlesquare.com/2008/01/24/upgraded-to-leopard-making-use-of-etcpathsd-and-path_helper/ that "Depending on your upgrade path to Leopard, your profile may or may not have been automatically updated.".

The more things change, the more they stay the same. That's what I thought watching coverage of Apple's Worldwide Developer's conference opening yesterday, where banners that read things like "Hasta la vista, Vista" and "Redmond has a cat, too. A copycat" hung.

Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard includes QuickTime X which comes with a new QuickTime Player, offering a clean and uncluttered interface, easy media sharing, and flexible recording capabilities.

Installing Leopard from DMG (without double layer DVD),

Some Mac users who ran the latest OS X Leopard update installation file found out that the software installation quits halfway through the process, causing potential problems due to a partially updated system. Apple acknowledged the installation issue and offers instructions on how to remove partially deleted installation files from a system folder and re-download the update again.

Squeeze is a background file compressor, which uses the new HFS-compression technology in Snow Leopard to transparently compress the folders you configure it to process. Mac OS will read those files normally, they will just take less disk space. How does it work? Just select some folders to compress and Squeeze will silently work in the background to compress the files contained on those folders, regaining disk space. Whenever you use any of those files, Snow Leopard will read it like any other file in the system - it will simply take less space.

Apple added a "feature" to Leopard which restricts non administrator users from managing printers on their Macs. While this is desired behavior on a public machine such as a classroom, it is a problem for single user machines such as faculty, staff and 1:1 deployments. By default in Leopard, a non-admin user can not add or remove printers. They are also not able to hold or resume a print job. This is a problem if you want users to be able to add printers themselves, especially if they're bringing their laptops home.

For the first time when OS X was released as a beta product one application was to be displayed at a time. You can only see a single application as multiple of them are operating at the same time on your screen. This is known as single-application mode. You can imagine that in the Dock once the running application is clicked it brings life into the Dock.

A multi-process browser for OS X Leopard. A prime example is parallel sessions, which allow you to log into a site using different credentials in separate tabs at the same time.

Almost a year ago Apple gave us Leopard (OS X 10.5), and along with it came virtual desktops for the masses, in the form of Spaces. For many this was an interesting new way to expand their workspace virtually. For the rest of us [power users?] it was a letdown in execution. What was worse, the third party options looked to be dwindling as well. Last November I called for third party developers to bring the competition - let's take a look at the result of that call to arms.
