10.8 All the Little Things!

[Mal]

Didn't find this posted yet:

Screen Sharing has some new interface options and features. When connecting to a server (not sure if it works to regular OS X installs yet), there's a new interface to the window that asks if you want to share the screen with the current user or login as a separate user.

Also, it includes a new Shared Clipboard Mode, which can be enabled in the Edit menu, or in the window's toolbar if you've enabled it.

It’s probably Advanced, but as I’m using the same language like you it’s just an educated guess.

Alright, I was too slow with my answer. riay388, you’re right, they're week numbers of course. Sorry!

It's ok

Thanks tho

I love ML!

But I cant wait till the big follow-up update by Apple on ML. It will fix so many glitches & bugs.

It just doesn't appear without you forcing it to. You can make the buddy list show up by clicking it under the "window" section of the menu bar, or by hitting ⌘1.

I wish they'd just do away with the buddy list or combine in it into the chat box.

Really no need to have two boxes. Imagine if safari had a separate window for favorites.

CALL apple, you just bought ML, you should be able to get support...

Before on my iMac it would never connect to my router automatically (even though it would see my wireless network), now this little quirk seems to be fixed or gone with ML

Same problem here, but still not fixed with ML for me..

I noticed 2 web content processes and where is resume?

I know its a long running joke.....but holy crap.....for the first time ever Safari is noticeably "snappier"

Night and Day.

It does feel faster, but I suspect the speedy animation in the address bar has something to do with the perception.

 

[kirky29]

I hadn't even noticed that, kinda awesome. Still not enough to make me remove my apps stack in the dock (why bother with the extra gesture / click) but getting better.

Yep, same for me, I can find things easier in the stack too.
-- although, I use Alfred for pretty much everything!

I don't really want to jump on the cliche bandwagon, but it certainly does feel snappier. And I love the new progress bar; the animation and gradient is really cool!

just noticed...reloading a webpage (with updated data) causes the page to do a slight fade-in...nice.

 

[harrisondavies]

Yup! I've been meaning to write about that somewhere but I know exactly what you're talking about. Every now and then....just a random "whoosh"...

Found the source for this. iMessages. When a buddy sings on/off - Resolved.

screenshot?

 

[fisherking]

screenshot?

LOL was JUST talking to the only other person i know who's updated so far...
and he's not seen this.

will have to catch when it happens. was reloading a forum page, and there was a slight fade in. has happened several times, but mostly...not.

so it means something (a new post? my meds wearing off?) not sure.

will literally keep an eye on it.

 

[PaulKemp]

How about the App Store? While scrolling vertically it doesn't feel snappy at all. I would say janky. Anyone else seeing this?

 

[Jeff Chen]

The menu bar icon for quickly adjusting resolution and toggle mirroring is gone.

 

[Catastrophe.]

I only just noticed that iCal is now "Calendar"
fail.

 

[zengravy]

This was driving me up the wall until I read John Siracusa’s excellent Mountain Lion review at arstechnica.com. He details a terminal command to disable Smooth Scrolling altogether:

defaults write -g NSScrollAnimationEnabled -bool NO

Am I missing something? Where did the option "Use smooth scrolling" (General tab) go? I don't use this feature and now in some apps it seems smooth scrolling is on regarding to system settings. I don't think it used to smooth scroll in these apps in Lion I'm talking mostly about third party apps Coda 1/2 etc. Safari doesn't scroll smooth. It's odd

----------

Those who misses remaining time for the charge I recommend SlimBatteryMonitor instead of "built in" indicator.

ical is now calendar, and address book is contacts. who cares??

How is it fail? It's more intuitive, which I must say I've come to believe is something Apple value highly (despite hiding away certain options like they lost money every time someone used them).

Contacts, Calendar, Reminders, Note, Mail, Messages... I wonder if even iPhoto will turn into Photos in the future, like in iOS.

Thank you! I had read that review yesterday, but before the update to include the command that works.

One minor nit-pick down, a few more to go… fingers crossed.

Easy there partners. He's saying he "failed" by not noticing this earlier.
