Apple released a Mac OS X Leopard upgrade that brings better stability and security to the operating system and improves compatibility with AirPort wireless networks and other Apple technology.

Mac OS X 10.5.8 was made available from Apple on Wednesday through the Mac Software Update tool, as well as downloadable from Apple's Web site. The upgrade includes Safari version 4.0.2, the latest release of Apple's Web browser, which improves accuracy of Safari history search.

The OS upgrade also resolves problems around the disappearance of display resolutions in System Preferences, and fixes a flaw that could prevent the importing of large photo and movie files from digital cameras. Other improvements include enhanced Bluetooth wireless reliability with external devices, USB webcams and printers. The upgrade also improves iCal reliability with MobileMe Sync and CalDav, and corrects data reliability problems between iDisk and MobileMe.

The upgrade improves compatibility with AirPort wireless networks. In addition, the software improves Sync Service reliability and RAW image support for several third-party digital cameras.
