So now that I'm close to a week with Tiger I've noticed a few more oddities. I think most are due to my install method - I chose to "Archive and Install" which basically means it didn't upgrade the OS - it saved off the old System folder and created a new one. So a list of what applications I've noticed got screwed up since then.
Palm Desktop - This got so screwed up I couldn't fix it. I finally just bought the Missing Sync to fix it. There are a lot of people reporting problems with the sync conduits post Tiger upgrade. If you're a Palm user you may want to be careful.
Real Media Player - I try to avoid Real stuff in general, but the BBC uses it to webcast - and they are aired the fourth Hithhiker's radio series currently. This reinstalled just fine.
Stuffit Expander - Reinstalled without a hitch. Until I reinstalled it was weird - I could run Stuffit Expander and it would just quietly close.
The wacky linux printer drivers I had installed for my color laser printer - While I was looking up the complicated instructions for that I found a note that said a different model driver worker for my printer. I downloaded that it and it works better that the foomatic drivers. Score!
Wiretap - This was a bit troubling - I can't find the free Wiretap app (just the shareware Wiretap Pro) anymore. Truthfully I've always had a couple of complaints about Wiretap so when they went pay only, I went Audio Hijack Pro Ah the links I'll go to for my Hitchhiker's fix! :-)
Virtual PC - reinstall seemed to fix this.
Windows (Samba) Networking - the workgroup got set to "Workgroup" where it should be "Home". There is a GUI to change this (Directory Access in the Utilities folder), but it locks on me when I try to change the Workgroup. It works fine on Karin's machine, but I had to use unix command line kung-fu on my system (sudo vi /etc/smb.conf if you speak command line). Some people seem to have problems with Samba post-upgrade but this is the only thing I've seen. And this was a niggle - it was still working - just made navigating the network needlessly complex.
Nothing too bad on the list. The Palm Desktop debacle is the only really key one. I'm not sure what the problem is there.
