Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / September 2008AppleJack 1.5 for Mac OSX 10.5
How about some feedback on the new release of AppleJack? I have been reluctant to even try it on this 24-inch iMac http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack > How about some feedback on the new release of AppleJack? > > I have been reluctant to even try it on this 24-inch iMac > > http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack I've had a version of Applejack on my machines for years and have 1.5 on them now, given a choice I wouldn't be without it. Its just a shell script that takes advantage of resources already on your Mac. The advantage is that it runs from single user mode which can save your bacon when you have boot problems. Add Diskwarrior to the mix and you can recover from almost any HD screw-up that isn't due to mechanical failure.

I assume the Yes means both are using Leopard 10.5 with no AppleJack issues > Are you using version 1.5 on an Intel Mac with OSX 10.5 (Leopard)? The > reason for asking is the older AppleJack gave me fits when I upgraded to > from Tiger to Leopard. Check the Applejack site. Some people are having problems with 1.5 on Leopard, and the author agrees that there is a bug. It may not hit you, and it's not that hard to work round, but maybe best to wait. Sorry I don't have the details myself.

Sorry I > don't have the details myself. Not exactly a bug, the problem seems to be associated with the Little Snitch.kext file. If you've had Little Snitch v1 installed and have removed it and left the kext file, you may see issues after rebuilding cache files in Leopard. Either remove the Little Snitch.kext (from v1) or update Little Snitch to v2. Little Snitch v1 is not compatible with Leopard so nothing is lost.

Thanks for the feedback Ps: I have been having Mighty Mouse issues for months and they are history after AppleJack did its thing. |
