Believe me you'll get used to this new in a matter of hours...:D And think about it...It's the right way to do it.;)

Well, I'm on day 4 and I'm still not used to it. I still accidentally scroll up when I want to scroll down (and have to quickly correct myself) every single time. I'm sure some people like it but others like myself just cannot get into it.

For me, "the right way to do it" is to control the scrollbar, not the page. To each his own though...

Hi guys... talking about crashing apps.. what are those that you find difficult or impossible to use or too buggy?
I've experience a very slow and buggy "preview" and a quite unusable "vox" as it just works for 6 minutes than it freezes!
Too bad the Lion has no Rosetta as there are still few applications I quite like and have become history (i.e. cue splitter for cue files and my beloved Ghost Recon)
What's your opinion?

Finder crashes on me when restoring a windows List View back to defaults

Try Fission for splitting by CUE files.

I'd like an Intel version of CocoModX - VLC only plays back the common MOD formats :(

This is a stunning release so far.

I forced myself to adapt to iOS inverted scrolling. It makes sense now, though when I used my friend's MacBook Pro (running SL) I was scrolling the wrong way! :eek: :D

Love all the gestures.

Hope they allow renaming of spaces instead of just "Desktop 1", "Desktop 2" etc.

The UI polish is amazing, just what I'd hoped for. Aqua has FINALLY been sorted out.

It doesn't look like there is a way to put Folders at the top like Windows. That's the one thing I really miss from Windows.

You can, I had the same issue when I switched from Windows to Leopard, but you can put the folders on top, my Snow Leopard is in spanish, but I'm pretty sure you'll find your way if I try to translate it for you:

Right click on any Finder window and then select "Sort By" -> "Kind". Done!

also wish that spaces was a grid layout with >2 spaces instead of a chain:( pointless to feature request/bug report this? would Apple listen? if anyone supports this request it.

Please submit this as a feature request!! I think that if enough people complain about not being able to have more than one line of Spaces, Apple will do something about it. I really think Spaces should have stayed like in Snow Leopard, being able to arrange them in a grid. Much faster and easier to remember where everything is. Also, when you look at all your spaces, they fit nicely in the screen as a grid, and not as a single line.

I have a question: in 10.7, can you use arrow keys to navigate buttons on alert windows?

So if I try to close an unsaved doc, will I be able to move from "save" to "don't save" or "cancel" with the keyboard?

It seems like a pretty obviously feature. I don't know why it wouldn't/hasn't be in.

Mail gives you the ability to preview web pages in a popover window. All web addresses show a little grey arrow when you over it, click that and the window appears.

Another thing it's built into Mac os X now, you can navigate the options pressing the tab key, also another hint, almost always there is an alert windows with options like accept or cancel if you hit enter you select accept, and if you hit the spacebar you select cancel!.

In some apps like Photoshop you can select the "Don't save" option by pressing the key D.

Bottom line, enter selects the highlighted button and spacebar selects the border highlighted one, check this example :

iSync has gone in Lion.

So, if it doesn't re-appear in a later build there will be no more syncing of third-party mobile phones from Nokia, Sony Ericsson etc.

eh, no sir, it is not gone?
