(All of the below is from a format and install of Leopard. This isn't  
an upgrade or archive.)

1-Mail.app keeps generating cryptic folders named like "Database  
11-43-45-547" in my Trash and in there is always a file called  
Database.sqlite3. I don't mind mail doing file/temp file management  
like that, but even once Mail is quit, I can't empty the trash because  
the files remain in use. It generates one of those folders containing  
one of those files every single day I don't reboot my Mac. (part of  
early a.m. maintenance? I don't know.)

Anybody experiencing this?

The content of that sqlite file is:

2-I fixed my external HD permissions problem that started once I got  
into Leopard-land. I had to go to command line and type a recursive  
CHOWN command for my user account. Permissions finally survive  
reboots! Yay! Before they would always revert to user "_unknown". I  
kept deleting that, and putting my own account with read/write access  
using the Get-Info pane, but after a reboot my changes would revert.  
Weirdest thing.



3-Leopard doesn't like my 20" brushed metal Apple Cinema Display. If I  
plug it in while the MacBook is running, it activates fine and  
switches to mirror-view. But then when I try to close the MacBook lid  
to get the native resolution of the monitor going and have the MacBook  
display turned off, the MacBook gets stuck in a sleep-wake loop.  
First, it won't wake up using my external Apple keyboard and mouse. So  
I have to open the lid to get it wake up. But then it switches back to  
mirror-view. So I close the lid, and it goes back to sleep. Rinse and  
repeat. I can only get the external monitor to be the sole monitor if  
I shut down the MacBook, press its power button, and close its lid  
quickly before it starts analyzing for lid closure. Fun eh? Tiger  
never did this.


4-The left pane of Finder windows, where devices are listed, doesn't  
always update or displays duplicates. Sometimes when I plug in my  
external hard drives, the same drive will appear multiple times, or  
not appear at all. When it doesn't appear there, it almost always  
appears on the Desktop though. And in any scenario, Disk Utlity  
*always* sees the drives and indicates that their mounted.



5-I sometimes can't eject external drives from the Finder. I highlight  
and click the eject gadget, or highlight and hit CMD+E, and nothing  
happens. Same from the Desktop. I've even dried dragging the devices  
to the trash from the Desktop, and nothing. The trash icon changes to  
the eject symbol and everything, but then the device stays mounted. I  
have to launch disk utility and do it from there to have any success.


6-Quickview fails to report the proper song length of Logic Express 8  
generated MP3s. And it only plays the incorrect length that Quickview  
states. Same mp3s play/report just fine in iTunes, Quicktime app and  
iPod Classic however.



7-Airport on my MacBook has become useless when trying to work with my  
Apple router. The MacBook no longer processes bandwidth. What I mean  
is that I can connect to my Apple router and get an IP address and  
everything, but the bandwidth is the pits. I'll get around 0.4k/s for  
an hour, then it will go back to normal for 30 seconds, and then die  
again for hours again. I've tried resetting the router, my DSL modem  
that it gets its feed from and everything, and same behavior. I've  
shut off airport, turned it back on etc. All my other wireless wifi  
devices (PS3, PSP, NintendoDS) that use the Apple router work just  
fine wirelessly. It's just the MacBook that's acting up. If I plug an  
ethernet cable from the Apple router to the MacBook it works fine.  
Switch Airport back on and unplug the ethernet cable back in, and I'm  
dead in the water. This problem began with the 10.5.1 update.
