Schmitz Apple has released [1]iTunes 10.6.3, a maintenance update that adds compatibility for the imminent public arrival of Apple's next major operating system (see "[2]OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion to Ship in July 2012," 11 June 2012). It also fixes several issues, including unexpected deletion of apps on a device as well as playlists created on a device; photos syncing to a device in an unexpected order; and an issue where iTunes became unresponsive when syncing to a first-generation iPad that contained an iBooks textbook.
