Mac OS X 10.6.7 Seeded to Developers

**Matt Savoca** · 01-20-2011, 05:26 PM

Just two weeks after the public launch of Mac OS X 10.6.6, which was released almost exclusively to reveal the Mac App Store, Apple has seeded Mac OS X 10.6.7 to developers this afternoon. The build comes in with build number 10J842.

Apple has listed no known issues in their documentation for the newest build of Mac OS X. The update says that it currently includes bug fixes and fixes at least one security vulnerability. Developers are being asked to focus their testing on AirPort, Bonjour, SMB (Files Sharing with Windows), and Graphics Drivers. It is unknown at this time when Mac OS X 10.6.7 will be released publicly. With the very fast turnaround from 10.6.6, it should be expected that Apple will most likely go through several weeks of beta builds of 10.6.7 before anything gets released to anyone but developers.

This does not seem like the most exciting Snow Leopard update at this point, with just minor bug fixes and the patching of security holes, but we'll keep you posted if developers do some digging and find anything worth noting in this release or any subsequent developer builds.

Nice to here 10.6.6 seemed a bit sluggish, hopefully they will do some performance tweeks.

10.6.5 broke a bunch of my templates in DVD Studio Pro. 10.6.6 does not fix the problem. Apple seems to be punting on support of some of their most popular pro apps. Bummer

That's a pretty quick update! Sounds like its just some basic stuff.

They had to sneak in another update real quick before 10.7, most likely because of the App Store release.
