Alt+Shift+Volume change (http://lifehacker.com/5517955/fine-tune-volume-adjustment-in-os-x-by-holding-altoption%2Bshift) is missing in Lion, is it just me?
Got a tip for us?

No you're right, it's missing... :-/
Also, what does command+G do?
Also, Front Row is missing?! Not that I used it a lot, I used Plex instead, much better alternative, but still kind of sucks that they just decided to drop support for Front Row...
CMD+G is for find next
do a CMD+F and enter your search text, CMD+G will take you to the next occurrences of it
unless it has another meaning in other apps, but dont think this is new

You can drag the photo thumbnails straight out from the Photo booth app and onto Facebook's "Browse" button!
Or, you could just scroll down in the sidebar of the Chooser window and click on Photos. Aperture, iPhoto, and Photo Booth images all show up in there in their library structure. Makes things very easy to find.
Also, I just found out when you're in Mission Control you can use 3 finger forward/backward swipe to switch spaces. Pretty cool.
That's also what the launchpad icon, 4 finger gesture on Lion is for. To gain access to a springboard.
There is no dock in iOS, you're oversimplifying.
AirDrop
Hi,
I hope this has not already been mentioned...
You can bring AirDrop compatibility to your unsupported Mac by replacing your WiFi card with one that is compatible.
I have a MacPro2,1 that had a Broadcom BCM94321MC that AirDrop didn't like. I replaced it with a Broadcom BCM94322MC and AirDrop is now working fine.
I would guess that any Mac that has a similar mini-pcie type WiFi card can be made compatible by installing this card.

Applications Launching at Startup
I am not sure if this was posted anywhere else and apologize if that was the case.
I cannot get my Safari and iMail from launching at startup. I have removed them from my login items and also have unchecked that mark at shutdown to not launch the windows at startup.
Any thoughts as to why this is happening?
Thanks all!

Never mind, figured it out. Looks like I just needed to completely remove them from the login items vs. just leave them unchecked. Still learning the Apple OS
Now if I can just figure out how to get my pre-Lion install battery life back...
Yup. You'll notice that the heading for the checkbox column is labeled "Hide at startup".
Apologies if this has been there for a while.
In system preferences, if you click and hold on show all, at the bottom is customise. This brings up your systems prefs folder, but just like when you hold down an app within iOS it allows you to hide it.
Good if you want to hide unused prefs

Here is a way to delete all versions of a specific file:

click on the little cog wheel at the top and go down to show view options
then untick show preview column
Todo's remain within iCal, but are not carried through to Mail. Would love to see apple do a 'outlook' style migration of the 3 apps.
Yep annoying that tabs go to the next along, instead of too the end.
When you shut down, the choice to not reopen from previous setting is not available, so it starts up with whatever you left open. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.
Battery life shocking... MBP 17 i7
Versions might work, happy to give it a try, but recently created a document in word, then decided didn't like it, so just quit pages, every time i opened up the app, that same doc appeared, the only solution was to open another template.
You used to be able to just type in say 'macrumors', and it would compile the rest i.e. http://www.macrumors.com not any more, just won't load!
