EDIT: Anyone also notice, this rather special MacBook Air?

I never spotted that, but someones put a Pro screenshot onto the Air.

Just set my download off, should be done in about 15 minutes. :cool:

I noticed a darker grey covering an area of this window:

Does anyone know what will be there?

Also liking the look of Yosemite, even though at first it appeared to look very 'toy-like' and it continues to feel just as smooth as mavericks. Overall, seems a good update. Also gives the notifications some purpose, as I never used them previously.

What purpose does it give the notifications? I've still not used them yet on my Yosemite install

I have installed it but because it now uses your iCloud account to login it is a PITA, I don't know my iCloud password as it is stored in last pass.

Do I need to change the password or is there a way around it?

Notification centre now has my social media accounts and the calculator in it, so I can tap out a tweet or text by just tapping twice. Rather useful IMO.

You can tweet/bookface from notification centre in Mountain Lion and Mavericks...

Ryan-3 · 25 Jul 2014 at 18:22

Oh.

Well.. they've improved it!?

JGBR · 25 Jul 2014 at 19:20

yes its got .10 on the box.

Is it possible to make the dock transparent like you could in Mountain Lion?

englishpremier · 25 Jul 2014 at 20:38

Don't know about making the dock transparent but I hate the little black dots under the dock icons that indicate which apps are open.

I can only take it as a good thing when most comments only whinge about the aesthetics!

Yeah. Pretty much everything else has been working well so far.

LiE · 25 Jul 2014 at 21:52

The only issue I've had is some websites I use for work the scroll on the mouse doesn't seem to work 80% of the time.

You can use your iCloud password, you don't have to...

Ah. Just discovered that creating an additional partition for Yosemite has wiped out the ability to boot Windows via Boot Camp.

Any ideas on how to get it back fellow beta testers?

I've never used boot camp before, but it switch between partitions I had to go into settings -> startup disk.

MagicBoy · 26 Jul 2014 at 01:48

I'm guessing something scrambled the special Apple witchcraft MBR gubbins.

It's missing from the alt/option boot menu at boot - usually shows up as a Windows disk. Bootcamp does show in the Startup Disk preference panel, but take an age to do anything before failing with a generic Windows couldn't start error.

I really can't wait for this to be released, for once I am not going to be testing anything but I really wish this would be released already haha. Can't wait for the dark theme without any third-party rubbish.
