One response to “Apple Releases OS X 10.7.3 Supplemental Update With Time Machine Fix”
Wow, 1 day after I upgraded the SSD in my machine. Good thing my machine wasn’t one of the ones with the “Errors”. I wonder if they fixed the iPhoto bug? Last time I used Time Machine a year ago in Snow Leopard, I lost my entire iPhoto library (not the photos but the actual database containing all my face tags, albums, etc…) .. Hope they have fixed that too…
