Apple has just released OS X 10.10.1, the first major update to Yosemite. The patch doesn’t include any big new features, but it fixes a handful of bugs, including one that could cause problems with Wi-Fi connections. The update was released alongside iOS 8.1.1, a minor update that improves performance on older devices like the iPhone 4S and iPad 2.

 

 

You can grab 10.10.1 through the Mac App Store’s Update tab, and it ought to show up on Apple’s downloads site later today if you prefer to manually download and install. From Apple’s official release notes:

– Improves Wi-Fi reliability
– Improves reliability when connecting to a Microsoft Exchange server
– Resolves an issue that may prevent Mail from sending messages through certain email service providers
– Addresses an issue prevents connecting to remote computers using Back to My Mac
– Resolves an issue where sharing services, Notification Center widgets and Actions may not be available
– Addresses an issue that could cause Notification Center settings to not be retained after a restart
– Addresses an issue that might prevent the Mac App Store from displaying certain updates
– Addresses an issue that could prevent some Mac mini computers from waking from sleep
– Resolves an issue that might prevent Time Machine from displaying older backups
– Addresses an issue that might prevent entering text in Japanese

The update also provides two fixes for enterprise customers. One makes the Mac App Store report that an Apple Remote Desktop update is available even when it’s not true, and another “allows you to append search domains for partially qualified domain names when performing DNS lookups.”
