OS X 10.10.2 and iOS 8.1.3 released

[lamboman]

Just a quick general heads-up for this.

10.10.2 claims the following (from http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204210):

This update includes the following improvements:

• Resolves an issue that might cause Wi-Fi to disconnect
• Resolves an issue that might cause web pages to load slowly
• Fixes an issue that could cause Spotlight to load remote email content when this preference is disabled in Mail
• Improves audio and video sync when using Bluetooth headphones
• Adds the ability to browse iCloud Drive in Time Machine
• Improves VoiceOver speech performance
• Resolves an issue that could cause VoiceOver to echo characters when entering text on a web page
• Addresses an issue that could cause the input method to switch languages unexpectedly
• Improves stability and security in Safari

Enterprise content
For enterprise customers, this update:

• Improves performance for browsing DFS shares in the Finder
• Fixes an issue where certain Calendar invitations could be displayed at the incorrect time
• Fixes an issue for Microsoft Exchange accounts where the organizer of a meeting might not be notified when someone accepts an invitation using Calendar
• Addresses an issue where Safari could continually prompt for credentials when accessing a site protected by NTLM authentication
• Adds the ability to set "Out of Office" reply dates for Microsoft Exchange accounts in Mail

iOS 8.1.3 can be found anywhere, MacRumors for the sake of it: http://www.macrumors.com/2015/01/27/apple-releases-ios-8-1-3-with-bug-fixes-storage-size-reduction/

Also thought I'd mention, off-topic, that 1Password for iOS and Mac have both been updated today, the iOS update is big: introduces built-in Two-Factor Authentication support (Google Authenticator). No more using Authy, now everything can be managed in one place!

Nearly 5 months after the release of 8, it seems they may have addressed the iOS wifi issues

I found it quite interesting that they fixed some Yosemite Wi-Fi issues, but I only started getting frequent disconnects yesterday, strangely. Hoping this is fixed, will play around when I get back home. Thanks for the heads up!

So rather than fixing Wi-Fi for me (which I never had any issues on my MBA in the first place), now it takes ages to get an IP address and often disconnects. Brilliant.

Why don't Apple focus on making what they already have actually work rather than spend time on features that people can't actually use because things don't work...
