Thank you: Bens.. And Rors...

I'll check out that extension when I get home. Sounds like that's what I'm looking for and miss about Chrome!

I minimized about 20 Photoshop windows and then activated Application Exposé (right-click dock icon and click Show All Windows or 3-finger swipe down)

I see, I didn't realize they were minimized windows.

Thanks PurrBall!

Mail / Excel issue

If Mail is in full screen mode and I open an Excel spreadsheet the file is opened on top of Mail but I'm automatically diverted to a different desktop. The newly opened file stays on top of Mail but can't be accessed. The only work around I've found is to take Mail out of full screen.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I mean, I surf on a page, I click a link, and the new tab which came from this link, does not put itself as the latest one in the row of all opened tabs. Instead of this, the link open a tab, besides the current tab.
This was not the way snow leopard and safari behave.
There should be a way to set safari to open any link as tab, in the end of the row of all opened tabs, as it did till now, till lion.

There is an extension that brings back the old behavior:

What do you guys think of the new traffic lights? They are smaller, too small for my 27" imac

I think they are too small too. However it seems that the actual "target" size is about the same. Meaning it seems that I don't have to be right on one for a click to work....

mission control

I put my msn on new space using mission control. When i close msn out and open it, it opens on my current desktop and not the new one i assigned it before.

anyone experience something similar?

Unless you assign it to a desktop (right click the icon when it's open, go to options and assign to this desktop) then it will open in whatever desktop you are on at the moment.

You know, I found something very interesting about Application Exposé, apparently it also gives you a thumbnail view of previously opened files for that particular app, I'm pretty sure this wasn't in Snow Leopard.

Not sure if anyone noticed this, but the iTunes widget for the dashboard is missing.

Did you "assign" it to the space via the contextual menu in the dock?

Just installed 11C35, the newest test build of 10.7.2.

The login window now shows a "guest" account by default. When you click it, the user is prompted to reboot the computer if they would like to use the computer in Safari-only mode.

It's interesting to see they are still tweaking features after the Lion GM release. Usually, these builds contain mostly bugfixes and non-cosmetic changes.

Oh, and the MobileMe preference pane is officially dead. It's been removed entirely to make way for iCloud.

 

[Takuro]

Some new screenies:

iCloud has a dedicated preference pane. Replaces MobileMe, which is gone entirely.

A look inside the iCloud preference pane. Basically this is exactly the same view as if you select an iCloud account in the Accounts prefpane. Not sure why Apple decided to make this redundant, standalone view. Maybe just to make it stand out more to advertise their new product?

Yeah they've removed it for some reason.

But if you need it, here it is: http://www.cworx.co.uk/2011/07/miss...m=rss&utm_campaign=missing-your-itunes-widget

Okay, sorry to be a little off topic but as soon as I saw the name I instantly started singing "All the Small Things" By Blink 182

They removed it because they got sick of receiving crash reports on a regular basis, and they decided long ago to never fix it; and the same applies to the failure of the playlist select interface on the reverse side since iTunes went to v8. I said they'd tire of the process before I did, and I was right. Good thing they removed it as well, not as if there isn't plenty of other stuff to complain about with Lion .

 

[Takuro]

Isn't Lion also missing the Whitepages and Yellowpages widgets? Those were kinda useful.

So now that MobileMe is pretty much dead as of Lion 10.7.2, is there a way to unninstall iWeb completely? It's a dead program now.

As far as I know it only uses the common iLife libraries, so dragging it to the trash should suffice.

Do you think it would damage iLife if I was to use an uninstalling program such as AppDelete or CleanMyMac?

The beach ball cursor looks slightly different in the newest 10.7.2 update.

 

[MartiNZ]

Have you had more time to look at it?

 

[superericla]

Nope. It just pops up for a few seconds while joining a server in Team Fortress 2.

Also, I just noticed all references to iDisk are gone in 10.7.2. No more Finder sidebar icon. No more option in the "Go" menu in the menubar.

If you use iDisk for storing anything, I suggest manually backing it up to physical media like a DVD. Although Apple is giving old MobileMe users 25 GB of space to use, it seems you won't be able to use it directly for file storage. Instead, that space will be solely used indirectly through iCloud-integrated apps.
