Apple releases OS X 10.9.1 with Mail, Safari, and VoiceOver fixes
Nearly two months after the initial release of Mavericks, Apple has issued the first major update for the operating system. OS X 10.9.1 can be downloaded automatically through the Mac App Store's Updates tab, but if you'd like to install it manually the package is also up on Apple's support site. The package for the 13-inch and 15-inch Retina MacBook Pros is here, while the update package for all other supported Macs is here.
The built-in Mail app is a major focus for OS X 10.9.1, which improves Gmail support, brings "fixes for users with custom Gmail settings," makes Mail's search and Smart Mailbox functions more reliable, and "fixes an issue that prevented contact groups from working properly in Mail." The update brings Safari 7.0.1 in tow, which improves the behavior of Credit Card Autofill, fixes VoiceOver issues with facebook.com, and periodically updates the "Shared Links" list in the Safari sidebar.
