Mac OS X 10.5.2 offers Automator fixes

Apple has been on a tear for the first two months of 2008, releasing over 20 software updates. What's been lacking, lately, is a descriptive explanation of the changes. While OS 10.5.2's description was pretty well documented, it wasn't exhaustive.

This silent treatment isn't universal -- thanks are due to Automator World for sharing a description of the undocumented changes in Automator, including
  • Show When Run issues
  • Tiger-based actions not working because of File-or-Folder typing
  • Tiger-based droplets not responding
  • Incorrect Find and Filter action results
If you're an Automator junkie, you should find these changes more than welcome.

Tip of the Day

To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.
