Apple Begins Seeding Mac OS 10.6.6
In something that we here at MacApper cant recall Apple ever doing, Cupertino has decided to disperse the first beta of Mac OS 10.6.6, even before the 10.6.5 update has been officially available to the public. The good folks over at 9 to 5 Mac made some notes that include the mentioning of no documented issues with the software and mentions to developers to focus their attention towards the Mac App Store.
Apple Seeds Another Build of Mac OS to Select Devs
MacRumors has gotten word that Apple has seeded another installment beta of Mac OS X: 10.6.5. What makes this one different, however, is that the company has released to select developers instead of the entire bunch that it usually does. More interesting, this development comes as Cupertino puts the iOS 4.2 software in its package for public release.
VLC Getting the Boot?
First LimeWire, now this. If you haven’t yet gotten the word, it seems as VLC has gotten into some legal sludge. One of the supporting entities behind the software has issued a formal copyright complaint against the software. In light of this, Apple may be pressed to pull the application for the iPad, iPhone and iPod out of the App Store. The source of the problem seem to be a conflict with the new App Store policy and GPL license agreement, that is, according to the Free Software Foundation.
iOS Daylight Saving Time Bug Continues
With the daylight saving time change coming this weekend for those of us in the US, it pays to be careful with your phone alarm. Many sites have reported that the iOS bug with alarms has not yet been fixed as people in Europe were woken up an hour late this morning. The bug only affects selective repeat alarms, however, so to be safe make sure you remember to use an alarm that only goes off once or repeats every day when the daylight saving time change hits your country.
