Open Radar 7338181: Xcode 3.2.1 #1613.0, CodeSense symbol lookup fails when Static Analysis enabled
Possible workaround
Open the project info pane. On the General tab, change the Project Format to Xcode 3.2-compatible.
I don't know why it works, or even if it will continue to work, but this problem has been bothering me for weeks and this seems to have fixed it.
Open Radar 7381767: Scroll event makes iPhone Simulator Hang AAARRRRRG IT'S SO ANNOYING
Yep
I've also noticed this when accidentally hitting my scroll wheel on my mouse at home. To get it back to working, I have to scroll with the wheel until I reach the "bounce" end of the scrollview. Once it bounces, things go back to normal. So annoying. Filing a dupe.
Open Radar 7396501: Possible threading errors in __NSAutoreleaseObject
ADC's responce. This should really be a false positive.
After investigating the issue, we believe that the ThreadSanitizer tool's output represents a false positive. The variable access noted by the tool is to a counter variable that is used for logging and debugging purposes, and does not impact the execution flow. Also note that autorelease pools are not designed to be thread-safe; it is expected that each autorelease pool is used only on the thread which created it.

We believe this issue has been addressed in Mac OS X SnowLeopard (Client) Build 10Axxx. This seed is available via the ADC Member Site to eligible members. Please verify with this release, and update this report with your results.

Open Radar 6816139: MKMapView: programmatic zooming with small factors doesn't work
Change in 3.1
It looks like 3.1 no longer reports span values that are multiplied by 2 via the mapview.region property.
Open Radar 7259633: HP DesignJet Printing Failure
Apple asked whether restarting the application being printed from made a difference. I responded negatively, pointed at the commandtohp filter, and included logs from a working machine (without the update) and one from a machine where the update is installed and printing fails. The key difference seems to be that on a machine with the update, the print system tries to send a PDF, which another part of the print system rejects. On a working machine (sans update), the print job is converted to PostScript and sent to the printer successfully.

Open Radar 6121615: GLSL version 1.20 errors on float array constructors
Still on 10.6.2
Over a year later, this bug is still not solved.
Open Radar 7309533: OpenCL - float4 to int4 cast doesn't error
Behaves correctly?
Personally I think this is a cop out. Conformance doesn't mean passing the tests. It means following the spec.
It took me ages to work out what was going on when I found this. If the compiler followed the spec and produced an error (or at least a warning) it would have saved me a huge amount of time.
There's also the point that maybe the spec should define behaviour or this code based on C. C programmers are used to writing some_int = some_float and getting truncation. Why should vectors be different?
Open Radar 7226263: Crash in ExtAudioFileDispose
Possible workaround
One workaround seems to be to use kAudioFileMPEG4Type instead of kAudioFileM4AType. Theoretically, a .mp4 should be the same as a .m4a, but it looks like this isn't the case here.

If the .m4a vs. .mp4 doesn't matter, you may want to try this out.

So true
This is a really annoying one. I've filed a duplicate with Apple. Let's see if that helps.
Open Radar 7219393: Automator "New PDF Contact Sheet" bug in 10.6.1
Resolution
makePDF.app is missing from /System/Library/Image Capture/Tools
The folder is completely blank.
if you copy the version from leopard to that location error and workflow action work as they should. I have notified an apple engineer of this problem in the hopes that apple will release a patch to correct the error for people that dont have access to leopard and only snow leopard.
Thanks
JM
Open Radar 7226263: Crash in ExtAudioFileDispose
Yup, still in 10.6.2
If you're still seeing this on 10.6.2, please file a dupe.
Open Radar 7380985: Cannot join the ADC Member Site without filling the "Company/Organization" field
Developer Programs Team response
– I contacted the Developer Programs Team as suggested and I got the following reply: "Dear Mr XXXXX,
Thank you for contacting the Apple Developer Connection regarding your ADC account.
Please be advised that the Company/Organization field on your profile is for information only. If you do not develop on behalf of a company or organisation, please simply insert a placeholder such as 'n/a' in this field.
I hope this information is of use to you. Please let me know if you have any further questions."
– My answer has been: "Thanks for the suggestion, however I still think that it's an error marking the Company/Organization field as required. That is, a required field is expected to be filled with meaningful information by all the users. Contrariwise, when it's not expected that all the users can fill a field with valid information, that field is not marked required. For example, this is the case for the phone fields in the very same ADC Member Information form we are talking about. It's just a suggestion but, maybe, you could had a checkbox (like the one for the Student Status) that the developer is expected to check if he/she actually develops on behalf of a company or organization and that activates the Company/Organization required field."
– The last reply has been: "Dear Mr Govoni,
Thank you for your reply.
We appreciate that you have taken the time to send us your feedback. Please be assured that all of your comments have been forwarded to the appropriate Apple team.
If you have further questions or comments, please let us know."

I have this issue as well
I submitted a bug report to Apple about this as well.
Thanks for posting your full description - I didn't even think about the fact that my Magic Mouse could be sending out the accidental scroll events.
