Apple Preps Macs for iPhone

Apple released an update for iTunes on Friday in preparation for the iPhone. Version 7.3 allows the user to activate their iPhone service through the application. In addition, the new version also allows the user to sync their media with the device. Non-iPhone related updates include the ability to share digital photos from any computer with a user's Apple TV, the company says.

Microsoft's recent update for Exchange Server may have also targeted the iPhone: it fixed a problem with the platform and Mac Mail with the IMAP protocol, and could potentially have been targeted at the device as well. In addition, to the iPhone releases, Apple has also released a firmware update for MacBook Pro users, "provides important bug fixes and is recommended for all 2.2/2.4GHz MacBook Pro models."
