Yeah a hidden 20-30 gb partition would be absolutely unacceptable when they are shipping notebooks with 64 gb of storage as their "everyone" model now. Good thing that's not the case. Now I can lust after the new air in peace.

alternatively you can presumably just pick up one of the flash drives for $69 when they become available.

I saw the safari 5.1 update on snow leopard claiming a resume feature but it seems nowhere to be found

pretty sure you'll need to image a flash drive or burn a dvd and clean install for leopard and earlier machines.

Is it still possible to grab scroll bars if you set them to always appear?
|
# ¿ Jul 30, 2011 03:09 |
|
Grabbing scrollbars with the cursor isn't that hard even if they're set to hide automatically. Moving the cursor immediately after scrolling makes the scroll bars persist longer.

Is there any reason that this "Keyboard and Characters viewer" icon would spontaneously appear in my menu bar? edit: when I unchecked the box to display it, a US flag popped up in its place for language & text preferences. wtf?

To spread application windows in mission control you swipe up with two fingers. Not the most intuitive in my opinion. The new grouping and scaling alone is a huge improvement.

appropriatemetaphor posted:I've had no problems with it on my Air vv Yeah, removing going back from a bunch of miscellaneous built-in apps was a bad idea. Maybe they didn't have time to implement the new safari visual effect with the gesture and didn't want something inconsistent. You could two finger swipe to go back or forward on practically anything with back and forward buttons IIRC in Snow Leopard.

If they were serious about offering a lion version in a timely manner they would have implemented those features in canary and beta during the lion developer preview.

I have to migrate back to Snow Leopard because I need to run Pro Tools and I'm already missing the new stuff-- the improved window grouping in Mission Control, the new Mail.. I hope Digidesign takes less than an entire freakin year to update for Lion compatibility.

mayodreams posted:If you are on ProTools 9, the latest 9.0.5 update that dropped last week adds Lion compatibility in a 'beta' form. I have done some light testing, but everything seems to work so far. However, if you are using an Mbox, you may want to wait because those drivers are really in beta, and caused GarageBand to fail during launch. Just noticed that. Maybe I'll get the scratch for a version 9 upgrade and an (ugh) iLok.

Did you reboot without automatically restoring windows? Maybe see if there's a way to launch the dashboard application without restoring its windows? Maybe you have to kill something in activity monitor or terminal?

1password looks like a really good idea, but I don't understand why an app that could be marketed to basically every computer user is that expensive.

Diabolik900 posted:Because it's worth the price? My point is that apps tend to be priced inversely proportional to their potential userbase. Many of the most profitable apps on the app store have the lowest prices. This isn't about how much you personally are willing to pay-- it's about what price you can set it at to earn the maximum possible profit. The vast majority of people use the same password for pretty much every site, maybe just a dictionary word, maybe with a few numbers or something, but nothing really secure like 1password and 95% of them are going to shrug and lose interest when they see it costs $50.

coldplay chiptunes posted:Would they really have the balls to release something radically different? Last time somebody tried that (Vista) it got destroyed. Vista didn't do badly because it was radically different, as much as it was simply in an immature state for its first few years and important third parties like nVidia dropped the ball severely on compatibility.

if you're trying to bypass upgrade activation, you don't need to bother installing XP. You can just install Windows 7, don't input a serial, and then reinstall on top of it and input the serial. It's the intended method for, say, if you bought an older version of Windows but the disc is scratched and you just want to get up and running.

I am totally baffled by what could be causing my 2010 MacBook running 10.6.8 to not want to shut down. When I go to reboot, none of the apps close themselves and eventually I'll get a notice saying the shutdown was cancelled because iTunes took too long to quit. If I close everything it'll say system preferences took too long to quit. Googling didn't really enlighten me and I think it has persisted through a clean reinstall too. Ideas?

Yeah, it needs to not be featured on sale if it doesn't work on the most recent version of OS X. Still, I think that it had a good run, and I don't resent them for not supporting it after all these years, especially with the new Diablo on the way, as long as they make it dead clear about compatibility and aren't putting it on sale front and center. It isn't that hard to run the game in a VM or Boot Camp, though.

on iTunes Match: I'd be pretty surprised if it was actually restarting the upload of your collection from scratch. I had to run it a few times, do some weird loving toggling and poo poo to get it to go, but eventually it all went up. Now on my phone, it can be a little sketchy especially depending on the service when I have it stream over 3g. I will sometimes tap one song and have its play screen come up and have a different song actually play back. It will sometimes assign random album art to things. All in all it's pretty disappointing for Apple. It's the first time I've had access to my whole library on my phone like this, so I do like it when it actually works.

This is normal. The power management isn't as smart in Windows. If you have a 15 or 17-inch, the dedicated GPU will be forced on in Windows at all times as well (thanks for that one Apple.)
