I've installed the 10.5.2 update into Zephy's 10.5.1, everything seems to be running just fine. Using EFI and the new kernel. So, am I safe to use software update to get the newest quicktime, frontrow and Itunes? Is there anything special that I need to do to install these updates? Please inform :D

As with all the quicktime updates, you will need to patch it with Marvin's utility.

Marvins utitily?

I'm kinda new to OSX, i'm lucky to be running! lol.. can you tell me, is this part of the Zpehyroth disk? or something I should try to download?

EDIT: Found the application.. but cant seem to find any documentation that's clear on how to use it :(

Any help would be greatly appriciated

If you found it on the Wiki, you've also found a link to the thread at insanelymac describing Marvin's and it's use... Go back and look above "download" for "thread"...

Pardon my ignorance. I had read that forum, and several other forums about Marvin, but couldnt find any clear instructions on its use. However, I've decided that these updates are not as crucial as I once thought.

Thanks for the help.

I never used Marvin with these updates. In fact Marvins has never worked for me since it can never find any files to patch. The updates are fine to install. Just make sure you replace your quicktime component file with the itunes fix one to get your front row and covers to work.

neither for me.. anyway itunes/quicktimes updates work perfectly without patching, guess i am lucky

if you download the updated software manually and download from their designated servers, works flawlessly to me. Quicktime and iTunes work. Only problem is the fact that iTunes' Cover Flow crashes all the time. :-)

There's a fix for itunes coverflow :) check #leoamd on irc.
