Vague as usual, Apple on Wednesday night released its iTunes 7.7.1 update, which "includes fixes to improve stability and performance." The company also released the second beta version of its upcoming iPhone-software update to developers.
Apple's vagueness prompted TidBITS to sift through Apple support forums to gather an idea of just what the iTunes update fixed. Users reported the following issues seem to have been fixed:
- A bug related to the CD being unable to eject with iTunes running
- Corrupted characters in iTunes track names,
- Long waits for iTunes to recognize connected iPods
- Slow iPhone backups
- Problems syncing iPhone with Outlook for Windows users
Meanwhile, Apple also released its second version of the iPhone 2.1 beta for developers. Naturally, little details are known about the upcoming iPhone-software update aside from bug fixes. Some have speculated the update would introduce turn-by-turn GPS and copying and pasting capabilities, but some are beginning to have doubts: The indications of those features were already evident in the code of the current firmware version, according to MacRumors. Now, MacRumors has turned its attention to references to a new iPod touch model instead.
