TOPIC

    A build version, such as "Build 4K78," should appear in the About This Mac window, Apple System Profiler, and the Startup Disk 9.2 control panel.

DISCUSSION

    "Build 4K78," for example, is a developmental name used by Apple for Mac OS X 10.0. It is normal to see this in the About This Mac window, Apple System Profiler, and the Startup Disk 9.2 control panel.

    The build version you see depends on the version of Mac OS X that you have installed. The version changes when you use Software Update for core system software.

    Product Name Build Name
    Mac OS X (10.0) Build 4K78
    Mac OS X (10.0.1) Build 4L13
    Mac OS X (10.0.2) Build 4P12
    Mac OS X (10.0.3) Build 4P13

    Note: You should update to the latest version of Mac OS X. Updates are available in the Software Update pane of System Preferences and at Apple Software Updates ( http://www.apple.com/swupdates/ ).
