Apple Releases OS X 10.7.1

[Rychy]

The WiFi fix is very welcome... was hoping .1 fix a few more things, but I'll obviously take what I can get.

 

[shuckit]

I hope it fixes the mobileme --> mail 5.0 bug, and safari.

17.4 MB. Hmm. Downloading. If this doesn't fix the black screen crash issue due to graphics switching I'm gonna totally lose it tonight

Agreed!

Can anyone confirm that this fixes the black screen suffered by 2010 MBP?

 

[sclawis300]

Based on news reporting of Lion OSX, it seems like Apple has dropped the ball on this update? Is this the Windows equivalent of Vista on Mac? dun dun dun!

that is not even a question? Apple would have to work really hard to put out something as awesome as Vista.

Finally!!!! Hopefully there are more changes than what is listed there...

 

[jvmxtra]

external monitor flickering issue? Are you freaking kidding ME?

 

[emaja]

Guess no need for a Combo update huh

-Kevin

I almost feel like I should wait for 10.7.2 just so I can run a combo.

 

[nefan65]

Didn't fix the audio icon issue on the menu bar. Installed the update, rebooted, and the icon was grayed out. Nice...WTF Apple? Their QA is tanking lately. Hate to complain, but really...

Lion runs very hot doing less tasks then Snow Leopard.

+1. Lion runs very hot compared to SL. Pretty unhappy about that.

 

[Menopause]

Agreed!

I can confirm that my computer is not crashing anymore retracing the steps through which I could reproduce this kernel panic 100% every time (namely switching into Mission Control from inside of Mail a few times !

I just want them to fix the backlit keyboard so it works again on my brand new MBP. Came preinstalled with Lion and the backlight on the keyboard worked all of the 10 minutes it took to do the initial setup, and when the update was installed the backlight hasn't worked since. The backlight buttons do nothing and there isn't even an option for it in the keyboard preferences...

 

[KPOM]

Great news, and I'm glad they are addressing MacBook Air-specific issues. Hopefully this resolves the few issues I've had with my 2011.

 

[DomC]

Does it address the issue of how they screwed up Address Book functionality?

 

[admanimal]

Can anyone with a 2011 iMac that was having the video playback freezing issues comment on whether that is completely fixed (I assume that's the video issue in Safari from the release notes, but I just want to be sure).

That is FANTASTIC news. The easiest way to reproduce the crash for me was to go to the 2nd tab of effects in Photo Booth. Will be heading home soon to download the update and confirm

17mb and it took this long? I was expecting a chunky update.

 

[adbe]

I don't know who gave you a -1, but I do agree that overall the OS does feel snappier, especially swiping between full screen applications (at least on my machine).

Probably someone who is running Lion with more than 2GB, and who has not experienced the painful pauses that mar Lion when it starts paging.

I just upgraded the RAM in my wife's iMac from 2GB to 8GB, and it's like a whole new machine. I'm about to do the same on my aging MacBook, but I'll see if this new update brings the memory footprint down a little.

(In truth, 2GB was getting near the line on Snow Leopard, but at least there was some headroom there).

 

[xraydoc]

Does this fix the issue where when you paise a full screen Flash video, it would exit full screen? Also, does it fix the YouTube pause bug?

That's Adobe's problem, not Apple's.

My suggestion is set YouTube to use H.264/HTML5 video instead or install Click-To-Flash.

On 2011 MacBook Air, wake from sleep with WiFi on seems faster. Is it just me or does anyone else see it, too?

Don't compare this with Windows!

 

[layte]

Has this fixed the VNC issue? https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1195549/

I'd rather not have to reinstall Lion to find out.

 

[krburrell]

I'm waiting for 10.7.2

Look at you memory usage, it might just be sustained swap-filing that's putting the machine under load.

 

[zed]

So, are system updates still going to come through Software Update and not through the Mac App Store update page?

Didn't fix the audio icon issue on the menu bar. Installed the update, rebooted, and the icon was grayed out. Nice...WTF Apple? Their QA is tanking lately. Hate to complain, but really...

The audio issue was with the optical s-pdif out. It was very annoying since Lion was unable to output DD5.1. The icon should be grey if you are using digital out since the volume control would come from your receiver.
Go to preferences and change the audio output to an analog device. This should return the volume icon to a functional state.

 

[Cougarcat]

Greyed-out audio bug is still there, and it still fails to auto connect to wifi upon wake from sleep. Very disappointing. (2010 MBP.)
