Weekend Apple Software Updates

dhardman writes "iPod Software 1.2.1 adds significant enhancements, including audio playback and user interface improvements, music browsing by additional categories, support for iTunes 3 Sound Check, Calendar, and more. Update can be found online." Also released recently were AirPort 2.1.1 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.2.2 (security update), both via Software Update.

Oh, and a task manager in iCal would be extremely useful.

Don't tell us, tell Apple!

Not new?

I think the reason most of us aren't getting this through Software Update is that this is not a new update. It looks like the AppleCare Document describing the update was changed, but iPod Software 1.2.1 Updater itself was released two months ago.

As further evidence, all of the visible changes are already on my iPod:

- Browse by album, genre, composer
- Calendar
- Clock
- Batter charge indicator fix
- FireWire feedback screen

You mean like the one that appears when you click on the thumbtack button in the bottom right corner of iCal? Yeah, that would be nice.

I would advise following www.macintouch.com or similar (macfixit, macresource, etc). They usually give a good indication of problems bugging Apple products, along with other useful info. At macintouch there are various reports, so you can follow specifically iPod things if you want.
