10.8 GM Build out...

[heisenberg123]

Can anyone give me a download link please?

not sure whats worse
a) not knowing how to obtain things illegally on net in 2012
b) asking for help to do it on a forum thats so against it

 

[ThunderSkunk]

Glad to hear it. Sick to the teeth of wrestling with this Lion.

Hurry up Apple!

I should be receiving my SSD in the mail to put into my macbook pro and I'd like to install that and OS Mountain Lion in one time!

A new build of 10.7.5 was released too.

 

[WhackyNinja]

A new build of 10.7.5 was released too.

Is it the final build of 10.7.5?

 

[Peace]

Not up on the Appleseed Customer Software seeding site....I wonder if they will release the GM build here?

Have you received GM's before on appleseed ?

Or in the case of ML have you been seeded with redemption codes ?

 

[jason2811]

Is GM the same as the final release for the public?

Does Apple load the GM on to laptops (such as new Macbook Pros) that are starting to ship out in a few weeks or does it wait for the final version?

cue : GM does not equal final release arguments.

Good ?. In the past, GM builds weren't given to Appleseed invitees. That may be different now, especially as Apple has changed OS X development to mirror iOS.

I wasn't aware it was illegal to ask for a download link to Beta software. I'm new to Apple.

I don't know what worse;
1) Acting like a pompous old fool on the internet
2) Trying to gain internet-cred

It's illegal because the only people who are legally allowed to download the software are the ones who pay Apple for development privileges.

 

[ixodes]

Anyone know what new gimmicks have been added?

Those that are assured of showing well in Apples television commercials?

A new slogan perhaps?

I hate to say it, but I'm a bit underwhelmed by Mountain Lion's new features. Watching the video, there's only a few of them that seemed useful to me, and nothing I've seen has excited me enough to anticipate the release. Maybe because I'm not a big social person, I don't use FaceBook at all and while I do use Twitter, I could live without it. Probably still a decent value at $20 but I can't remember ever being this apathetic about an OS X release.

Tell me more about how you've never pirated anything in your life.

I can't say for sure.

Agree and valid concerns. "Snow Leopard" will [at the moment] hold as the better OS X variant for myself. However, compared to "Lion", "Mountain Lion" is definitely an improvement. Having been a developer for a long while, I was surprised engineers were responsive to many of the complaints/suggestions, especially with regards to "Mission Control"'s implementation of "Exposé".

Great! Will be installing this on my affordable external thunderbolt HDD which doesn't exist, till the quirks get worked out. Looking forward!

EDIT: Just a heads up, you can save some money getting the USB3 version of that drive, + the $99 thunderbolt adapter and Apple Thunderbolt Cable. It's all about the same price as the thunderbolt drive without the cable for some reason. This way you also have a USB3 adapter around for the future!

That's a good place to start. Have fun.

 

[sputnikv]

i'm quite excited for this

Huh? I was just answering the guy who said he didn't know it was illegal. I couldn't care less if people do it, I was just explaining something to somebody who didn't know. I'm sorry if that rustles your jimmies.

Should this also be appearing in software update?

 

[3282868]

Nope. Need to log into ADC account for redemption code(s). Software Updates were for minor DP release updates.

 

[Poursang]

Should this also be appearing in software update?

DP or beta versions never get an update to the GM (as long as Apple is concerned).

 

[r.harris1]

Should this also be appearing in software update?

It's a redemption code from the dev site, not a direct update to the previous DP.

Now you can build apps for Mountain Lion and submit them I'm guessing.

Oh? I thought Apple would send out an email inviting us to do that? (I'm ready to submit Battery Status 1.3 with some Mountain Lion exclusive features... I've been holding onto it for a few weeks just waiting... hoping Apple will put it up as a highlighted app if I have ML only features on the ML release date )
