Few weeks ago, Apple released OS X Lion, its new operating system that runs on all Mac computers. The system is overall considered rather stable, however Apple has just released the first point update for the system, bumping its version number up to 10.7.1.
Apple released the first update to OS X Lion, which reaches version 10.7.1 and adds a number of fixes to the operating system. These fixes address video unresponsiveness in Safari, WiFi reliability, as well as audio issues with HDMI and migration of old data to a new Lion installation. The update is only 17.4 MB from Software Update, and we’ll post direct links as soon as Apple makes them available. The new version is currently available on Software Update, with the Mac App Store reporting the original OS X 10.7 that was released last month.
Official Words:
The 10.7.1 update is recommended for all users running OS X Lion and includes general operating system fixes that enhance the stability and compatibility of your Mac, including fixes that:
- Address an issue that may cause the system to become unresponsive when playing a video in Safari
- Resolve an issue that may cause system audio to stop working when using HDMI or optical audio out
- Improve the reliability of Wi-Fi connections
- Resolve an issue that prevents transfer of your data, settings, and compatible applications to a new Mac running OS X Lion
