Users of iPhoto 11 will be glad to learn that Apple has shipped a new version of the photo management application to address a number of bugs that plagued the software, as well as to include more support for syncing to iOS.

iPhoto 11 version 9.4.1 improves the reliability of syncing to iOS devices via iTunes, and fixes an issue that could cause the app to quit unexpectedly when using the Export command, Apple says.

The company also discovered an issue that could cause iPhoto to quit unexpectedly when upgrading multiple books, cards, and calendars, as well as an issue with downloading and viewing photos synced from Facebook albums.

Both these problems have been addressed in iPhoto 9.4.1.

“iPhoto '11 works with Photo Stream, so the photos you take on your iOS devices automatically appear in iPhoto, and you can share selected photos with other people,” says Apple.

iPhoto 9.4.1 also comes with the tweaks and enhancements delivered in the recently-launched iPhoto 9.4.

Those who haven’t updated iPhoto on their Macs for a while will now get support for Shared Photo Streams on OS X Mountain Lion, the ability to add comments to photos after publishing them to Facebook, new card and calendar themes, a new File menu command to open the current photo library in Aperture, and a bunch of performance and stability improvements.

With iPhoto 11 you can mix your photos with movement and music with 12 dynamic slideshow themes, and there’s a new way to create professional-quality photo books.

The application also offers templates for letterpress cards that let you combine your photos and text with elegant imprinted designs.

iPhoto 11 version 9.4.1 supports different languages, including English, Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, and Ukrainian.

iPhoto 11 requires OS X 10.7.5 Lion or later.
