In what has become an update-packed week, Apple has issued yet another piece of software aiming to improve compatibility between its programs. Available solely via the Mac OS X built-in Software Update mechanism, iLife Support 9.0.4 is recommended for all users of iLife ’09, iWork ’09, and Aperture, according to the company headquartered at One Infinite Loop, Cupertino, California.

“[iLife Support 9.0.4] provides system software resources that are shared by iLife and other applications,” Apple’s note goes. “This update improves overall stability for the Media Browser and iPhoto slideshows. It also provides compatibility between Aperture 3 and the Media Browser. The update is recommended for all users of iLife ’09, iWork ’09, and Aperture,” the note ends. The update is a small, 2.5MB download, which, after it has been applied, doesn’t require the user to restart his / her computer.

Two days ago, Apple launched the third major release of Aperture, the company’s professional photography software application for Mac OS X. Introducing features like iPhoto’s Faces and Places functions, new edge-aware Brushes and Adjustment Presets, Aperture 3 also ships with a new, Full-Screen Browser and a set of Advanced Slideshows.

One day into the release of Aperture 3, Apple issued a couple of software updates to further assist experts in editing and enhancing their libraries. Digital Camera Raw Compatibility Update 3.0 and Aperture SlideShow Support Update 1.0 are also available as free downloads from Apple.

Finally, around 30 Support documents were posted online in tandem with these updates. They include tips on tethered shooting, converting images to Aperture 3 RAW decoding, disabling and enabling 1-Click Purchasing, tips for posterization of images when using Curves adjustments with ATI X1900 and dozens more pieces of valuable information. Visit Apple here to learn more about iLife ’09 and here for more information about the new Aperture 3.

Just ran Software Update and the iLife Support doesn't show. Did Apple pull it?

Software Update keeps telling me users of iLife '9 should install iLife Support 9.0.4 but I only have iLife 6. Do I let Software Update install it? Still not available as a stand alone download from Apple's Download site.
