If you are still Mavericks user or Mountain Lion user, you have a major update to download

If you have not yet migrated your Mac to Yosemite, either by choice or simply because your Mac does not support it, be quiet, Apple continues to maintain your operating system. Whether Mavericks or Mountain Lion OS you have installed on your Mac, both just received an update that fixes several vulnerabilities.

This security update for both operating systems, 2015-001, is not an upgrade itself, but comes to plug some holes which also corrected the latest version of Yosemite launched last day 27, the 10.10.2.

When there are major software upgrades I am always in favor of waiting a couple of weeks to see if the new update causes major problems and bugs. According to several users have reported the OS X 10.9.3 update is causing problems on the Mac Pro's GPU.

Apple has released 10.9.3 update in OS X Mavericks with improved stability, compatibility and security among which are extended with support 4K displays in the latest models of Mac Pro and MacBook Pro with Retina screen of 15 inches, and the added ability to sync contacts and calendars between a Mac and an iOS device via a USB connection. 

This new Mavericks version also includes Safari 7.0.3 with the usual update level security patches, fixes among other errors and problems with the Font Book, the reliability of VPN connections with IPSec, copy options, edit and inspect permissions on SMB servers, or stability to install configuration profiles.

As for iTunes 11.2, the update focuses on improving the exploration of podcasts with new features like the new tab "not played" access to the list of episodes to play or download more comfortably, an option to save our favorite episodes and disposal episodes automatically reproduced. Maybe dare update the Podcasts app for iOS. 

You will find both updates in the Mac App Store and if you were brave and installed public beta of OS X 10.9.3 you can be reassured to know that the final version passed without major drawbacks.

Apple puts their betas of OS X available worldwide

Apple just made one of those movements that I would have bet money against: from now, the beta of OS X versions are available for everyone, not just developers who are attached to the Apple Developer Program $ 99 per year. The change is already effective with the beta version of OS X 10.9.3 Mavericks.

All we have to do to enter the program and to settle the beta versions of OS X is log our Apple account on this site, where we are encouraged to "help OS X is better" testing a unreleased version of OS X via our feedback.

If you have always wanted to try the beta versions of OS X, this is your time. What comes to mind right now is: can we use the beta version of OS X 10.10 (supposedly) nothing being presented at the WWDC 2014? It would, of course, a big change from Apple.
