“Following the successful public release of OS X 10.7 Lion to the general public last week, Apple has seeded OS X 10.7.2 to developers,” Dave reports for AppleBitch.
“The seed of 10.7.2 was made available alongside the developer release of iCloud Beta 5 for Lion which is also currently undergoing developer testing. Given that 10.7.2 is now with developers, it is likely that Apple is near finalizing the public release of 10.7.1, the initial bug fix patch for the first version of Lion.”

Dave reports, “10.7.1 has likely been in the works for a while now and is likely nearing a public release.”

any sneaks on what 10.7.1 fixes/includes?
A lot of people experiencing Wifi issues (myself included). I would guess that’s one.
So.. if you’re experiencing Wifi issues.. and you’re um.. on a Macbook Air… how the F are you supposed to get this update?
maybe you should READ about the issues?…..
WiFi works…. BUT it times out.
and the people that are having the problem…. are the NEW iMac and MBP…. the ones with 3 antennaes.
you have problems connecting at a STABLE 450 802.11N.
you CAN turn off security settings and connect at a stable G speed…
But this is not a new Lion problem. it was first introduced in 10.6.7 and Apple still hasn’t been able to correct it.
and we know it’s Apple’s drivers. the Bootcamp windblows drivers… work at a stable 450 N speed. it’s just while in OS X we have stability problems.
Sorry, I seem to remember having pervasive Wifi and Ethernet connection issues several months after Snow Leopard came out (you can read about them online if you don’t believe me). This kind of thing happens all the time with Apple.
So basically I can expect 10.7.1 released 2 weeks from the 20th
You would think that at least one seed of 10.7.1 would go out to the developers before its release. Maybe later today?
Hopefully they have added a “turn off Autosave” in the general preferences…
That is one of the major features of Lion.
Why do you want to turn it off?
because it’s a very very bad feature, it should save into a scratch file. I have a catalog and i when i change some little things to generate a different PDF version for a client , AutoSave save the change to my catalog, so i lose my original… I would decide when i want to save my document, i’m not totaly silly … I spent a lot of time ($) to launch ‘revert to save’ to restore my document as i open it in Pages before ‘autosave’ …
You might read up on how it functions.
Documents get “Locked” so that new changes do not get added. It
would ask you, in your example, if you wanted to save to a new document instead. It would not just overwrite the document.
Ya have a little silly. That’s a good thing. 😉
Sorry shithead but some of us prefer to decide on our own what we want saved.
Reading comprehension is not the only thing you failed.
Seems like they had 10.7.1 cooked and ready to release from the beginning, just to hook people who won’t upgrade until there’s at least one stability update. I’m not biting. I’ll consider it at 10.7.2, but I most likely will not upgrade until 10.7.3 or 10.7.4.
I don’t know. I bit and installed it last Thursday. I’d say it’s 99% good so far. The only thing I would like fixed is the terrible loss of the gestures for Safari. I want to be able to use the two-finger swipe left and right to replace the back and forward buttons. It worked beautifully in Snow Leopard. Now you can do a really brutal swipe to the right and you might get back to the previous page but it resists mightily. It was so easy before!
It works OK for me.
Maybe you need to clean your mouse ball. 😉
The gestures in Safari work for me as well. I can go back and forward with 2 finger swipes back and forth.
Why wait? I haven’t had a single issue.
Well, in my case, upgrading to Lion means dealing with at least two “everyday” pieces of software that will or may stop working, in return for a bunch of features, none of which I need. Unless my hand is forced by the introduction of something Lion-only that I’ve just gotta have (iCloud?), I will probably upgrade at the end of the year at the earliest, when switching over my financial software will be the least painful.

I agree with Kayan, it seems like they had it in the wings all along. Strange.
Upgraded on Day 2 and all is well. Getting lots of practice with new gestures and Mission Control. NO major issues at all. Glad I did it and just in case there was a BIG issue, I have Snow Leopard, all files, and apps backed up.
Let me know what the Wifi works.. you know… Basically Macbook airs running LIon are totally F’d right now.
I use an Air and upgraded Day One over wifi – absolutely no issues. Air and iMac work well. Not much to you I suppose 🙁
Oops. Not much use ………
Borrow (or buy, then return) USB to Ethernet adapter to get back online with that MBA and fix WiFi issues.
Don’t worry, he knows not of what he speaks.
WiFi problems, and NOT that WiFi does not work… it works. but sometimes gets SLOW…
and from what i have read, there IS NO MBA WiFi issue….
the guy saw DMac mention WiFi issues, and he responded by coming up with his doomsday scenario with a MBA having no WiFi.
Guy has no clue about the issue, and tossing out FUD.
Move along, there is no dead WiFi on MBA’s….
as i pointed out above, it’s apple’s drivers having problems. it don’t break WiFi, it just makes WiFi speeds act like you are on a roller coaster.
one minute… blazing away at 450, the next the page times out. hit refresh and it’s there.
it’s the security settings with 802.11N that Apple has screwed up with 3 antennae systems. you can change the settings to use all 3 antennae with “G” speeds… and all is well.
Read the discussions…
Note to MDN: Panther 10.3
Does anybody know if it is possible to have your apps come up fullscreen by default?
It’s usually not the whole “app” that goes full screen, it’s the app’s window. For example, one or more Safari windows can be in full screen app mode while (at the same time) one or more Safari windows are “normal.”
If you quit an app with its window (or windows) in Full Screen App mode, it should reopen that way when you launch the app (using the “Resume” feature).
There is no general system-level setting to open apps in full screen app mode, by default. However, it is possible for individual apps to have such as setting, in its preferences. For example, I noticed that DVD Player has such as setting.
My 24 inch iMac froze up today while the screensaver was running. I had parallels, mail, and my calendar up. Hopefully, when these updates come out they’ll fix this.
Saaaaammmmba 3! C’mon Apple we want xbmc working again on our jailbroken atv2…
yeah cause apple cares about the Jailbrake community.
Yeah, Apple went to far by incorporating so much iOS Ui features in Lion. They should instead have introduced a themes option like Windows, to allow, for example, a Snow Leopard theme and Lion theme, so you can switch between them easily.
