Apple posted the Time Machine and AirPort Update 1.0 on Wednesday.

"This update is recommended for all users and includes compatibility improvements for using Time Machine with Time Capsule, as well as AirPort driver fixes," according to Apple.

The update is available in System Preferences -> Software Update or as a standalone 10 MB installer.

The Apple Downloads page has also been updated.
