macbook air 13 20121Apple today pushed out a new EFI Firmware Update 2.6 for the mid–2012 MacBook Air, which comes with several bug fixes for the MacBook Airs that were released in June alongside the 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro.

This update fixes a color issue with HDMI displays connected to MacBook Air, resolves an issue with Windows which can prevent MacBook Air from booting properly, and also resolves an issue where unplugging a Thunderbolt device may cause the system to freeze when waking from standby.

The EFI update should be available in the Mac App Store for mid–2012 MacBook Airs and can also be downloaded from the Apple Support site.
