[adztaylor]

Well that's two out of three. Gimme the third! My update is 80.4 MB for some reason.

 

[toanavinai]

Awesome. Just finished installing it. Sure hope iOS 4.2 comes soon.

 

[Stuipdboy1000]

Downloaded. It seems somewhat faster than 10.0.1.

Now all we need is iOS 4.2, however The Telegraph reports it may not be coming until the 24th (Link).

For those of you that had the beta installed: Software Update doesn't find any updates, but iTunes can be downloaded here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

I'm with you there. Airplay is still a no-go until ATV gets its update. I just tested it on the iPad 4.2 GM and this new iTunes. Still only pushes audio to the ATV.

Come on Apple, iTunes a 64 bit rewrite already. The application could really use the performance boost.

Great, now people can start complaining that they had to click the 'i agree' button again, so who knows what apple can do now.

MobileMe Control Panel updated, too.

Of interest: Apple apparently has simultaneously released MobileMe Control Panel version 1.6.4 for Windows users. See the attached image.

The update fixes issues with recurring appointments and reminders in the new MobileMe calendar.

is this the same version as the beta?

 

[spyderracer393]

Here's to hoping for VLC to add airplay support (if it's even possible?)!

 

[SnowLeopard2008]

Can we install iOS 4.2 GM with this? I'm still stuck on beta 3 and hearing stuff about the WiFi bug. I mean iPad not iPhone. I'm in no hurry with my iPhone since it's crucial to my work and I won't do anything to risk it not working properly. But my iPad is my entertainment device with beta 3.

[GoodWatch]

That lame icon is still the same (<- pun intended).

Build 10H574.

I didn't check the beta 2 build before updating.

Nah, they wouldn't do something like that in a point update... iTunes 11 at the earliest...

The 64-bit version iTunes on Windows is slow.
