Final Mac OS X 'Tiger' update released

Apple includes Safari 3.0 in 40MB download

Apple has released what will probably be the final major update to Tiger - Mac OS X 10.4.11. The 40MB update includes many improvements and fixes, but it also features the final version of Safari 3.0, Apple's homegrown web browser that has been in beta for several months.

Other changes to the operating system include Adding Raw image decoding support for the following cameras: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50, Leica V-Lux 1, Olympus E-400, Olympus Evolt E410, Olympus Evolt E510 and the Canon EOS 40D. The update also improves compatibility when using OpenType fonts in QuarkExpress.

For virtualisation customers, Mac OS X 10.4.11 improves reliability when running VMWare's Fusion software.

A couple of changes were made to improve iPhone support as well. The update improves support for using Image Capture to import pictures taken on the iPhone and syncing between iPhone and Yahoo address books has been improved.

Several changes were made to networking components and other smaller items like Daylight Saving Time for specific areas.

Mac OS X 10.4.11 can be downloaded from Apple's website or via the software update mechanism in Mac OS X.
