Apple today released new v1.1 combo updates for Mac OS X 10.6.3 on their website. The updates don't include a list of changes over the prior Mac OS X 10.6.3 combo updates, but are recommended for all Snow Leopard and Snow Leopard Server users looking to upgrade with the combo update. The Mac OS X v10.6.3 v1.1 combo update weighs in at 785.29 MB and requires Mac OS X 10.6 or later. The Mac OS X Server 10.6.3 v1.1 combo update, on the other hand, weighs in at 897.32 MB and requires Mac OS X Server 10.6 or later.

I wonder why its been designated 10.6.3 v1.1 and not 10.6.4 Confused

My iMac became very unstable after updating to 10.6.3 so I've had to reformat and reload a fresh copy of OS X. I've since updated it back to 10.6.2 but have avoided adding 10.6.3. My system has been stable since reverting to 10.6.2, I'm avoiding 10.6.3 for now and I'm not sure I even want to try 10.6.3 v1.1

I not sure why anyone would want them either. Especially if they can't say what issues are corrected.

My understanding is that if it does NOT show up in Software Update you don't need it. Supposedly only for certain folks who updated from 10.6.1 to 10.6.3.

Would be helpful if Apple was a little more verbose in explaining these things.

Neither of my macs running SL needed it. It's kind of a strange update though.

I gave up on 10.6.3 and rolled my Macs back to 10.6.2. I was just having too many issues with AirPort and Safari. I'm not even willing to try this update. Bring on 10.6.4!
