Apple has just released an update for iPhoto ’11, bringing the version number up to v9.2.1, and correcting an issue with iCloud, as well as a codec issue causing crashing and import errors for certain customers.
The issue mainly occurred on Macs that had the software for the Flip digital video recorder installed, and was able to patch the issue without removing the codec. The update is available through both Software Update and the Mac App Store. We’ll provide a direct download link here as soon as it becomes available.
The official change log is as follows:
