FileMaker Pro 11.04 Released – Addresses Lion Glitches

Today, FileMaker, Inc. released the update to FileMaker Pro 11 that was promised at the time of Lion’s release in July. I just downloaded the software and plan to apply the upgrade. Other Lion-related issues are bound to surface eventually but I expect them to be minor.

The update is recommended for all FileMaker 11 installations. You can download from the FileMaker site here.

FileMaker identifies the following fixes:

  • OS X Lion only: Addressed an issue with some date field formats showing Asian characters.
  • OS X Lion only: Addressed an issue with not being able to use zero or negative numbers in data formatting in the Inspector and in some controls in the Chart Setup dialog.

The prudent among you will take your own sweet time upgrading to Lion. I really don’t recommend upgrading to Lion as yet in a mission critical situation such as a Studio Manager installation. For one thing, the promised update to FileMaker Server 11 is not due until October and Lion itself is still Quite buggy.

Lion 10.7.1. Some bugs were addressed today with the release of Lion 10.7.1 but there are still lots of people online who’ve downloaded 10.7.1 who are saying their Lion-related problems remain.
