ML seems great so far, bar one thing...how the hell do you turn off the Password remembering option in Safari? I don't want to do it for every site!

In Safari settings.

I don't think I come across a single problem with ML yet and I am running the GM version since release.

I just had an update for Power Nap on my MBA 13" 2011 model.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

I heard about that firmware update - I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro - I thought that I was good to go?

I don't know, I got the update but just installed it.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

ok guys i have question

i have macbook air 2012 13

so was using 10.7 and wired memory was mass 400 mb

now after upgrading to mountain lion i havent done clean install just downloaded from app store and installed directly my wired ram usage i 1gb

is this normal guys?

Yes

 

[Deleted member 77746]

This is a joke. The password they've sent me doesn't open the file... :/

EDIT - They sent me two different locked PDF files in the end. Got a second one shortly after the password. I wonder if i should ask what the password is for it.

It's probably automatically generated.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

It's fine.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

v0n, stop complaining on a forum and file a bug report? You tell them exactly what they need to know so there is an update for us all without having to debate it.

That is a deal and a half! Cheers.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Your still here?

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Mine isn't like that, my text is perfect.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Which way perfect?

No bluey text, no boldness. I have a MBA 13". I expect you have reported this by now? Maybe sent something to macrumours to investigate too?

 

[Deleted member 77746]

I never even realised that you can do a lookup on what a word means by just a 3 finger tap over a word.

Brilliant!

 

[Deleted member 77746]

excellent. how cool

Just means when I want to know what someone is talking about it's a press finger click away.

I'm trying to do a clean install but I'm getting an issue where it says the restore on to my spare external HD doesn't work. Same thing happens when trying to burn to DVD as well, the verify fails. I've tried re-downloading it about 5 times now. Any ideas?

Screenshots if u can please? or pictures?

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Always amazes me how so many people have problems on each and every OS release. I haven't had any major problems since my first Mac that came with Snow Leopard.

ditto including windows and linux it must be hardware problems causing it or user error.

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Can a fresh install be done from the ML installer as Downloaded from the App Store?

yes.

I've just done a fresh install to my Mac Pro and an upgraded install to my MacBook Pro.

iMessages is... poor.

Every chat protocol, including texts, really needs to be uploaded to Apple's servers, otherwise it simply does not work with missing messages.

Even if I just use iMessage to message people, if they do it from their phone and it arrives as a text message how useless is that if I'm at my Mac Pro?

Otherwise, I've had to symlink a few things to get it how I want and disable Gate Keeper but hey ho.

Why are you getting missing messages is the question, never had a problem here.

I cloud is built directly into pages now. You create documents either on your mac or iCloud and they are automatically saved to icloud for backups. Last time I checked, word didn't have any where near that level of integration.

Office 2010 for PC and Office for Mac includes an option to save to SkyDrive.

10.8.1 will be seeded to developers soon.

:/

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Yep, Yep, Yep

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Why the :/?

Already, people only just updated to ML 10.8 never mind seeding another .1 lmao!

 

[Deleted member 77746]

Hardly a LMAO.

10.5.1 was under 3 weeks, 10.7.1 was under 4 weeks.

It's an initial point update to squish bugs, not another 4GB download.

Should have been squished before release.
