Apple Updates Leopard Login and Keychain

Apple Updates Leopard Login and Keychain

by , 8:20 AM EDT, October 29th, 2007

Apple released its first update for Mac OS X 10.5 shortly after the new operating system hit users hard drives. Login & Keychain Update 1.0 addresses several issues including a problem with passwords for user accounts created with Mac OS x 10.1 that contain eight or more characters.

The update also corrects problems when connecting to some 802.11b or g wireless networks, and fixes issues when changing the password on FileVault-protected user accounts.

Login & Keychain Update 1.0 is free and available via Apple's Software Update application, or as a download from the Apple Support Web site.

Subject: Locked out from logging into Leopard

I am not able to log into my recently updated Leopard version of the Mac OS. My password was 8 characters, and I understand that this needs the new Leopard update, but how can I install it if I cannot log onto my computer at all?
