Apple iMac Graphics Update 10.10.3 OS X Yosemite

Part of the audience for this maintenance is the 2013 iMac 27" so that made this particularly interesting as perhaps it resolves my problem in Final Cut.  The symptom Apple observed was a failure on use of very large JPEG image files.  That's not a match as the codecs used for my videos aren't JPEG.  Nevertheless, I was medium hopeful this would fix the problem.

It did not.  On opening "The Edge of the World in Fort Worth," in two to three seconds the screen goes black and there's no way to restart it without first cutting the power for ten or twenty seconds.

Note:  the crashes are not limited to Final Cut as they happen without running Final Cut.  The trigger is not clear when Final Cut is not running but it's immediately triggered when I edit the Fort Worth video but not necessarily others.

More news as it comes and hopefully better next time.
