Bug Description
Installed 0.48.4.1 yesterday, downloaded from SourceForge on 12/23. Noticed that most existing objects will not snap to grid or guides when moving them. Some existing objects will snap, but only at a certain node no matter where the cursor is. When drawing lines or shapes, the start and stop points do snap as expected, but none will snap when moving afterword. Tried on several drawings (all created in and all but the current one updated in previous versions) with same results.
Win. 7 64-bit with all updates.

Not reproduced with Inkscape 0.48.4 on OS X 10.7.4 - snapping works the same as in 0.48.3.1 and earlier bug fix releases of 0.48.
Did you adjust the snap preferences and the snap settings for the current document on the snap controls bar as needed? tavmjong. free.fr/ INKSCAPE/ MANUAL/ html/Snapping. html#Snapping- Objects>

You need to activate snap targets on the snap controls bar to define 'what' snaps to the grid (e.g. cusp or smooth nodes, rotation center, text anchor, etc.), when moving an existing object with the mouse while having the grid visible.
> Some existing objects will snap, but only at a certain node no matter where the cursor is.
That depends on your preference settings for snapping (Inkscape Preferences > Snapping):
- '[x] Only snap node closest to the pointer' (off by default)
- Weight factor: determines which solution to prefer when multiple snap solutions are found
> all created in and all but the current one updated in previous versions
Which version is "previous" referring to? Could you attach such sample files?
