*** The Official OS X Mountain Lion 10.8 Thread ***

I had some issues with Safari crashing. Since downloading flash from the adobe site, all is fine now.

I have also had Traktor Pro 2 crash on me too ,hopefully there will be a stability update for all the crashing soon.

Apple are getting more and more like Windows now that they are feeding a larger market.

I ended up using the reset Safari option and clearing everything seems to have cured the crashing when I was opening new links into a new tab.
 
Is there a way to get iLife back from the App store instead of having to dig out my old install discs?

Yes, they will be available there.

Just installed onto my iMac, only the Mac mini left (which doesn't really need it, but I might as well). Must say, it definitely feels faster than Lion did, though maybe that's just me. Didn't do a fresh install this time, as I have only just done fresh installs on both my main systems last week.

Liking it so far, finally like the look of the Dock enough to have it at the bottom ;)
 
I do not like the BOLD affect on these forums that Safari seems to render the text in, anyone have the same issue?

Notifications are none existent except for new mail, no tweets and anyone I have in GameCentre doesn't play with me! :(

Plus I dislike the fact that I have to share my two Apple ID's with it, why they won't allow people to merge IDs is annoying, doesn't feel unified when you have to remember what program has which ID signed in to it. (iTunes, iTunes Match, GameCentre are my hotmail, and contacts/calendars/reminders/notes are @me.com).

I am impressed overall though, does feel faster, Safari is quicker no doubt, haven't had any compatibility issues with the apps I have installed, downloaded Steam & L4D2 and it ran fine!

That's one of my biggest gripes as well. Add to that how you have things thrown all over the apple store as well. Instead of having a single account from which you can do everything, you need to have your account, your id page, your support profile, stand alone warranty check page. It seems they just keep throwing stuff on top of other stuff.

Also, when iOS 6 is released, we'll be getting yet another domain. So I will then have an @mac, @me and @icloud.
 
Been using Safari for a little more today and am loving it. Definitely fully switched over from Chrome :)

Looking forward to iOS 6.0 now so we can use the iCloud tabs :)

Also going to try and start using Reminders instead of my other app "ToDo" for my todos :p

Anyone know the best way to make it so that a three finger click on a link opens in a new tab? Is there a Safari extension?
 
so i just got a new email from apple. hurray. put the code in. it tries to download OS X Server even though in the pdf they sent me it clearly states Mountain Lion....... :/ can only laugh really
 
Done a clean install of ML after HATING lion for 3 months and reverting to SL.

Im liking it, MUCH MUCH smoother, no hesitations, It just flows :) (just like SL, Lion was ****)

Safari is much faster, but I don't like the resizing tabs. It makes closing multiple ones more difficult.

but, and this is really annoying me, WHERE HAVE YOU PUT THE TIME REMAINING ON THE BATTERY ICON, APPLE?

Thought it would be time for an SSD but it appears not :D
 
I'd also like to be able to close a tab by middle clicking it when I am using my mouse. Would this app manage that aswell?

Yes. That's my most used gesture with BTT. Middle click close tabs and open links and same on the trackpad 3 finger tap = middle click.

Awesome thanks a lot to the both of ye :)

EDIT: That was pretty easy! :p However, it's not letting me close tabs by middle clicking or three finger clicking. It'll open a link in a new tab with both, but won't let me close tabs. How can I make it so a tab will close when I middle click it?

Wait do you mean in Safari? I think the closest you can get is adding the gesture CMD + W to the middle click. That's one of the main things that keeps me using Chrome.

Ahh that means it would only close the tab I'm in. That's a little annoying... I'm sure I'll get over it :p
 
First Impressions - seems okay.

Why on earth did they remove the Time remaining option from the battery icon in the menu bar? Grrr. :mad:
