Mail and Address Book
	• 	When typing immediately after clicking Reply in a Mail message, all 
characters typed before the Reply window appeared should now appear in 
the window.
	• 	In Mail, opening an attached Pages document could lead to an 
unexpected "Name of document may contain an application" alert - this 
update addresses the issue.

pasting a large graphic into a message and then typing text just before 
the graphic.

from appearing in a Mail message.
	• 	Addresses an issue in Mail in which an entire line of text could be 
inadvertently deleted when deleting a link at the end of the line.

plug-ins from loading. (Click here for more information.)

installing this update (regular, large, and extra-large) - click the 
"i" button to access the Font size pop-up menu.
.Mac, iSync, and syncing
	• 	Addresses an issue for .Mac syncing in which the alert "cannot 
login to the .Mac sync server" could unexpectedly appear when clicking 
the Sync tab in .Mac preferences.
	• 	You can now add a Motorola V180 mobile phone in iSync 2.0 with this 
update.

available if you need it. (Click here for more information.)
	• 	This update allows you to register a computer for .Mac whose name 
(in Sharing preferences) contains an ampersand ("&").

Cyrillic (Russian, Bulgarian, Ukrainian), or Greek is the primary Mac 
OS X language in International preferences.
	• 	With some printers, when printing a PDF webpage file that had been 
saved from Safari (with the Safari printing option "Print webpage 
information in headers and footers" deselected), only a gray bar would 
print - this update addresses the issue.
	• 	This update addresses an issue in which text in a TextEdit document

Other enhancements
	• 	When using the FileVault secure erase feature, the progress window 
now states "Deleting old Home folder" when securely deleting files from 
their original location (instead of "Unmounting FileVault"). Note that 
this option may take a while to complete, during which you shouldn't 
force-restart your Mac. (Click here for more information.)
	• 	Improves security by disallowing files, applications, and webpages 
from being opened at the password prompt that appears when waking from

address to a computer through AirPort if the computer has a long 
computer name - this update addresses the issue.
