    There is nothing in the update to address the FW issue.

    Re: Mac 10.5.4 update

    Avid's particular method of delivering packet information via FW revealed a bug in Apple's FW bus. It prevents the DNA products from working with Leopard. The bug did not exist in Tiger.

    Re: Mac 10.5.4 update

    Blkdog, do you think it must be somewhat platform specific?   I have been editing for over a week now using a combination of my 17" MBP and G5 Quad with an analog Mojo and have had no issues other two error messages that didn't even require a software reboot.   If fact, i think on the whole, 3.0 has been pretty reliable.

    Quad 2.5Ghz G5, 4.5GB RAM, NVidia GeForce 6600/256MB, OS 10.5.2, MC 3.0, 750Gb Internal, Analog Mojo, 23 inch Cinema Display. Also 17" MBP 2.33 OS... [view my complete system specs]

    During beta, some of us had this error all the time and some very little so I really don't know.

    Re: Mac 10.5.4 update

    Hey There,

     

    Hate to be a pest but is there an ETA on the fix with the Firewire issue? Alot of Mac Pro's are only coming with Leopard installed and even if you out in a Hard drive with Tiger as the OS the Mac Pro's wont read them? Trying to use a Mac Pro as an assist station but constantly having to reboot after every 10 to 15 clips via firewire makes a 60min dig about 90 mins

    Re: Mac 10.5.4 update

    So has anyone tried running MC 3 with 10.5.4 AND Quicktime 7.5????

    It seems that this thread is saying that 10.5.4 will work but has there been issues already noted about Quicktime 7.5?
