Apple Updates iPhoto
hrbrmstr writes "Apple released an update to iPhoto, bringing it up to version 4.0.2. From the horse's mouth: 'iPhoto 4.0.2 addresses minor issues with Smart Albums and European books, and provides notification when new versions of iPhoto are available.' Get it from Software Update or from Apple support."
It's the feature that lets you make an album and arrnage it nicely and get it printed into a physical book. And also be in Europe at the same time.
iPhoto lets you specify any external editor you want to edit the photos with. It's not designed to be a serious photo editing application; it's designed to organize your photo library with lots of metadata. The newer versions do a very good job of this.
It might be useful for checking updates to modules (or plugins) inside the app (something SU can't do)
For example, if a printing place adds options, then only the module that displays the order/layout/etc stuff for that place need be updated, not the whole app, which is several MB in size, vs probably only a few 100k for the module, if that.
AC comments get piped to
I get the feeling they may have yanked this update. 8/3/04 9:37PM EST and Software Update does not show the update (I have 4.0.1). Also, the link on the iPhoto support page is bad.
The Apple discussion boards are talking that it's been pulled due to some issues.
If you don't have an iTools login you can still view most everything in the Apple Discussion area.
