I don't have access to an Intel system running OS X 10.5 so I don't know if it's only with PPC or a general 10.5 warning. I don't have access to any systems with OS X 10.6 so haven't tested there. Under OS X 10.7 and 10.8 there are no warnings. Good Luck, Herb Schulz (herbs at wideopenwest dot com)
