If the features are not for you stick with Lion or Snow Leopard.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

I have just submitted a bug report with Apple. There is an issue with Safari Tabs where it can get stuck accross your devices even if you restore.

Bug hunting begins.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

For the price I think it's worth the update but we shall see.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

I'm just nowhere as excited for this release as I was Lion.

Have they sorted out fullscreen apps with dual displays? it's a nightmare in Lion

I don't use duel displays so I am unsure on that one.

If in 'Power Nap' mode doesn't shut the network off I don't see why it shouldn't be able to stream to devices.

1.Power Nap requires a Mac notebook with built-in flash storage. May require a firmware update.

GM has been seeded to developers. It's here folks.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

I just set it away myself only just woke up as I am off work all week! Will seed this for an hour or two too!

 

[Deleted member 77746]

where are you getting it from?

Online Seeding it at 1500Kb/s.

Sounds about right

Can anyone try the GM?

I am just installing it right now.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Care to PM me the specifics please?

Done.

Any you lads/lasses that have it downloaded don't forget to seed for an hour or so to help others get it.

Just for info,

01: Anyone that comes across the message
"There was a problem installing Mac OS X"

You will need to reset the PRAM (OPTION, CMD + P + R) on boot, twice. This is because it may leave info about Lion in memory.

Genuine Mac dev centre download, not the pirated torrent which seems to be ok to discuss on here
As always, kept my 'production' lion install separate.

Who is discussing it?

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Installed without a problem.

Not much different cosmetically apart from the frankly annoying loading address bar in safari.

I find Safari much better.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Surely I'm not alone with the drive by race car loading bar.

I want to make a USB install stick but the sharesupport folder isn't present in the contents folder of package. No way to obtain the installesd.dmg file.

It already is the InstallESD.dmg

I'm looking forward to seeing the iCloud Safari Tab syncing in action

I have stuck tabs.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

The file is already InstallESD.dmg, mount it then use disk utility to create the boot device.

Your been thick! It's Destination: 'untitled' not 'SanDisk Cruzer Blade Media'

 

[Deleted member 77746]

My iTabs have just reset! YeY!

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Why does my destination say "Sandisk Cruzer Blade Media" then?

Pretty sure i had to unmount the "untitled" partition for it to work mind.

O.M.G!

Just drag 'untitled' to 'Destination'. :/
