Apple Releases Snow Leopard Security Update Update to Fix Rosetta Issues

Posted on by

We recently wrote about how Apple’s recent security update for Snow Leopard was causing problems with applications running in the Rosetta environment – PowerPC applications being emulated to run on Intel processors. Well Apple has responded quickly, and has released Security Update 2012-001 v1.1, an update to that update, to address this issue. Early reports suggest that it resolves the problem caused by the first update.

Apple describes the update as follows:

Security Update 2012-001 v1.1 is now available for Mac OS X v10.6.8 systems to address a compatibility issue.

Version 1.1 of this update removes the ImageIO security fixes released in Security Update 2012-001.

Snow Leopard users can download this update via Software Update, or from Apple’s Downloads page.
