Apple Seeds OS X Lion 10.7.2 Build 11C43 and Other iCloud Updates to Developers

11c43 updates
Apple today pushed out several new developer seeds for its OS X platform, continuing to move forward with testing of iCloud. The updates come one week after the previous seeds, which also came alongside the sixth beta version of iOS 5. Among today's new releases for OS X:

- OS X Lion 10.7.2 Update (Build 11C43)
- iCloud for Lion beta 9
- iPhoto 9.2 beta 3

The new OS X Lion 10.7.2 build continues to list no known issues and asks developers to focus their testing on AirPort, AppKit, GraphicsDrivers, iCal, iChat, Mac App Store, Mail, Spotlight, and Time Machine.

There are no new updates posted on the iOS side at this time.

Apple has announced that it will be launching iOS 5 and iCloud this fall. The company has been rumored to be launching new iPhone hardware in early-to-mid October, and iOS 5 and iCloud should be going live right around that same time. Apple will almost certainly be holding a media event a week or two ahead of that launch to introduce the new hardware and give final details on iOS 5 and iCloud.

Thanks, Chanyoon!

Pretty excited about iCloud.

I am too. Everyone should remember you will need Lion for iCloud and the latest versions of iWork and iLife to use it.

Apple has removed the compatibility subsystem for older applications from Lion.

They want you to buy new systems and new software.

They have an unexpected new expense - a CEO with a salary!

Are you serious, pal ...

Mobile Me Apple would have already shipped iCloud in back in July. The new Apple is spending more time testing it.

And then what, another shoddy rollout of 10.8.
We all eagerly wait in anticipation of your complaints about it in the coming months.
