I thought about posting this in the Haus of Tech Support, but it seems more relevant to this thread, so I'll try here first to see if anybody has had a similar problem. My dad purchased a Retina Macbook Pro 15" yesterday and is having a problem with iPhoto. He did a Time Machine restore, which went off without a hitch (so far as we can tell). He has about 2k or 3k images, and upon launching iPhoto, he was prompted to upgrade his thumbnails to support the Retina display. About half of his images were successfully converted. The other half now don't show thumbnails at all, and opening those blank-thumbnail images results in the Triangle-! symbol, rather than in the picture itself. He's spent about 2 hours on the phone with Apple and is now talking to a "Senior iPhoto Specialist" about the issue. As a side note, it's been really cool how the issue has been elevated. He's been transferred three times to progressively more specialized folks. There are other weird issues too -- like his library doubled in size, both in terms of the number of reported images and the total size of his photo library as reported by Apple-About This Mac. 99% of his images are JPEGs -- very few RAWS -- as he usually shoots with his Nikon SLR in Auto mode. That's just the kind of user he is. I'm not looking for a resolution to this problem here. I'm just wondering if anybody else has experienced this same problem.

Currently installing the update, and it's sitting at the progress-bar screen with the following caption: Time remaining: About -4 minutes That's negative four minutes remaining. Not sure what I want to do, exactly. Edit: So, the progress bar just shot back to 1/3rd, and it now says 20 minutes remaining. About 25 minutes have already elapsed. I'm not worried. Should I be worried? Sneeze Party fucked around with this message at 04:07 on Jul 26, 2012 |

I discovered a strange new behavior in Mavericks. If I have tabs enabled, and I drag the tab away from the window and "drop it" on the desktop, a miniature icon representing the Finder tab that I dragged appears. I can't seem to interact with it: it's not draggable, openable, or anything. What am I missing? Is this a bug, or is it a feature that I don't understand? Check out the screenshot.

I killed Finder, and that makes the tiny windows disappear, but when I try to recreate the behavior, it persists.

After a reboot, the tiny windows go away, but the behavior persists. So I'm assuming that you run Mavericks, and you tried to do this, and it doesn't happen? Edit: if clicking on the tiny window made it big again, it would be a pretty rad feature. Sneeze Party fucked around with this message at 23:16 on Oct 30, 2013 |
