   iMac Graphics Update 1.0

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Apple has released [1]iMac Graphics Update 1.0 to address an issue for
   specific iMac models released since September, 2013. In particular,
   this update resolves a bug that could cause the system to stop
   responding, display a black screen, or restart when opening very large
   JPEG images. The Apple support page notes that this update is for 21.5-
   and 27-inch models released in late 2013, plus the 27-inch iMac with
   Retina 5K display released in late 2014. The list does not include the
   entry-level iMac introduced last year (see '[2]Apple Introduces
   Entry-Level iMac for $1,099,' 18 June 2014). This graphics update is
   available via Software Update or via direct download from Apple's
   Support Downloads Web site. (Free, 772 KB, [3]release notes, 10.10.3+)
