Apple Seeds OS X 10.7.5 Build 11G15 to Developers

Tuesday June 19, 2012 12:07 pm PDT by Eric Slivka
Following yesterday's news that Apple was preparing to begin seeding versions of OS X 10.7.5 to developers, the first of those developer seeds has now been released. This first version arrives as Build 11G15 and asks testers to focus their efforts on the following areas:
- Graphics performance and quality
- Image & Media importing, editing or viewing
- Networking reliability & performance
The build weighs in at 937 MB for the delta version and 1.87 GB for the combo version that can be used to upgrade from any prior version of OS X Lion.

There are no known issues associated with this build, but a timetable for a public release is unknown. Apple has announced that it will be launching OS X Mountain Lion sometime next month, and it is likely looking to release OS X 10.7.5 before that time, although the company has occasionally released maintenance updates for its operating systems even after their successors have launched.

Updated OpenGL drivers? Wouldn't that be nice.

I'm yet to understand how I'm going to be better off with the new OS. I don't use cloud services and from what i have seen so far, it all seems too cosmetic and no substance.

What's floating all of you?


I use cloud services and like cosmetics? *shrug*

If you don't use iCloud, then there's not much point. But if I didn't want iCloud, I'd still be on 10.6. iCloud, however, rocks, so I'll be upgrading again.

Also, dictation would be pretty cool if it's as good as on the iPhone 4s. And the new safari, and the ability to receive on my Mac iMessages sent to my iPhone's phone number.

My heart stopped.

Due to the excitement around the possibility of updated (and better) graphics drivers.

Please please please fix hiding applications, where they don't get sent to the end of the application switcher (CMD+TAB).

I repeat this every time a new 10.7.x release is pending. This is the only thing broke in Lion that drives me up the wall when it comes to workflow/productivity!

Might be worth looking to see if there are any graphics drivers for unreleased models :) What with the iMac and Mac Mini overdue.

The biggest thing for me is going to be AirPlay mirroring.

I hope this update will finally fix network problems when both Ethernet and Wifi are enabled at the same time. In my case, and looking to Apple forums many other have the same problem, when for some reason Mac brings a message "This computer's local host name "name-2.local" is already in use on this network. The name has been changed to "name-3.local". and after some time it renames name-3.local to name-4.local etc... as well it fills log file with usbmuxd errors with bonjour removal.
