Ahh, come on Apple! Another time I install an OS update (10.2.4 in this case), and another time the "dock fixup" script in the updater adds Mail.app, Address Book.app and Sherlock.app in my Dock. Sure, it only takes a second to drag them out again (I don't use them that often to keep them in the Dock), but please, let me decide what I want to have in my Dock.

Hmmm.... My dock is just as empty and Address Book & Sherlockless as it was with 10.2.3. Your not working with any alpha or beta software, are you Slava
Posted by: Ton on February 14, 2003 6:49 AMI had a grin tag added after 'Slava' , but that's gone now for some reason - must be an MT bug....
Posted by: Ton on February 14, 2003 6:51 AMMy dock hasn't been changed by 10.2.4 update either.
On another note, ClearDock no longer works on the dock:(
Posted by: Alex on February 14, 2003 7:19 AMWeird. The Mac OS X 10.2.4 update added Mail & Co to my Dock on my iMac, but not on my PowerBook.
Both systems where configured quite similarly.
Posted by: JackSim on February 14, 2003 7:23 AMBoth my work machine and my two machines at home periodically display these symptoms. Never been able to work out why ? it happens even after the odd restart.
Posted by: Alex on February 14, 2003 7:36 AMMine didn't do the dock update. Perhaps its because I am running the Minimize In Place beta dock though.
Posted by: tikki on February 14, 2003 9:53 AMIt's a shame about Pathfinder. I love the way it's set up, and prefer it's column view to the Finder, but always find myself switching between them. I wish it was much faster, I could totally replace the Finder with it.
Posted by: Mike on February 14, 2003 11:30 AMSpeaking of minimize in place when will we see minimize in place in windowshade x?
Posted by: Zer0Her0 on February 14, 2003 2:14 PMI don't keep ANYTHING imn my Dock. Except DragThing which I use to REPLACE the Dock as an app launcher and just use it as a Running App list. I was wondering why the icons keep showing up.
Is there also a script like this hidden somewhere that periodically "accidentally" causes the Dock to regain these icons even when not updating?
Maybe Unsanity can create a Haxie to intercept the commands that add the icons like that and put a stop to them?
Or we can hound Apple with "Bug Reports" that they should stop doing it.
Or we can just keep dragging the icons out.
I vote for the second.
Posted by: Jason Anderson on February 16, 2003 2:00 PMIt happens on my system dock also with every OS update.
Cleardock works fine Alex; still the same yummy glass plate it is...
