Apple verteilt finale Version von macOS Mojave 10.14.4
Apple hat gestern nicht nur eine Menge Neuerungen vorgestellt, sondern auch finale Versionen seiner Betriebssysteme verteilt. iOS 12.2 und tvOS 12.2 sind auf dem Weg zum Anwender und auch macOS 10.14.4 steht nun als fertiges Release zum Download bereit.
Apple führt mit dem Update unter anderem den automatischen dunklen Modus und vereinfachte Anmeldungen für Webseiten in Safari ein. Bei Apple Music wurde genau wie unter iOS auch der Entdecken-Tab überarbeitet und ist nun übersichtlicher. Besitzer der neuen AirPods können diese nun auch mit macOS nutzen und vieles mehr. Was aber viel wichtiger ist, dass sind die Fehlerbehebungen und Verbesserungen im Bereich Performance und vor allem Security. Ich habe euch die Changelogs mit in den Artikel getan und die Liste der Security Bugfixes ist wirklich lang.
Wartet also nicht zu lang mit dem Update eurer Macs oder MacBooks.

Kennt jemand eigentlich einen „Geheimtipp“, wo man gut gebrauchte Mac Hardware kaufen kann?
Würde gerne einen Mac von 2012/2013 kaufen.
pssst: https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/
Hmnkay, ich würde ja „Danke“ sagen, fühle mich aber nicht danach….
Gibt es eine Möglichkeit nun noch an die Version 10.14.3 zu kommen? Ich benötige diese und finde momentan keinen Weg.
