Apple Seeds Mac OS X 10.6.4 Build 10F46 to Developers

World of Apple reports that Apple has seeded a new version of Mac OS X 10.6.4, termed Build 10F46, to developers. The report notes that the update currently weighs in at 573.1 MB and asks developers to focus on GraphicsDrivers, SMB, USB, VoiceOver, and VPN. Apple also highlights nearly a dozen issues addressed in the update and lists one known issue in the current build involving an error message with fonts.

Apple today gave a select number of developers access to the second build of Mac OS X 10.6.4. Build 10F46 includes a multitude of fixes and just one known issues affecting a font within the operating system.

Apple seeded Build 10F37 of Mac OS X 10.6.4 to developers just last week, focusing on many of the same areas. Mac OS X 10.6.3 was released to the public in late March and brought a significant number of fixes to Mac OS X Snow Leopard.

Looks like this should be a nice bug fix release for those of you who have troubles with SMB shares.

I'm hoping this fixes my issue of my Macbook Pro not waking when I open the lid.

I just find it cute that apple bragged about how small snow leopard was on the install (something like 4GB) but their updates are each 500+ MB each. :D

that doesn't mean all of that will end up staying on your system. Much of it is probably a replacement for bad code.

Did anyone expect different after a major re-write of the OS? Myself, Snow Lep has been rock solid.

Don't release this until there is a fix for the bug in the Active Directory Plugin, Apple!

10.6.3 users that are bound to AD and using a mobile account cannot change their AD password if it expires..

This is a real nasty one in the enterprise, I am surprised it got past QA (normally it is very good)...

This is holding up some deployments for me at the moment...

Not to worry. Updates always overwrite system files so the OS doesn't expand 500+ MB per update :)
