New in Developer Preview 2

How?

It's the first story on macrumors.com (for now,) but it's just like iOS. Go into launchpad, click and hold on an app, and an "x" will appear in the lefthand corner. Click it and you'll get a "are you sure?" dialog box and you can delete it from there.
Just like on iOS.

I've done that, but I still have apps without x's.
 
If you log in with a google account (and presumably any other supported account) Safari will ask you if you want to use that account with other Mac OS X application and takes you to the Internet Accounts prefs pane with the information preloaded. Slick.
 
Right clicking and bringing up the context menu in Twitter for mac will now crash it every time. Safari seems worse. Still no inline developer tools (Inspect element).

Regarding the launchpad... I can't remove applications anymore...
When I click "option" the icons get to "shake" but there is not X sign to click to delete the app... they just wiggle and can't be deleted.
Any of you the same?

Also very difficult to move them around...

In my experience launchpad was working better on preview 1!

Ideas?

core duo

I just did the 2nd update of the developer preview 2 today, i got rid of the platformsupport.plist again so it will boot up on my MacBook Pro core duo like it has done previously, but it won't boot anymore on the core duo. It seems this is the update that might thwart core duo users :(

Anyone else have this problem or know what to do? i tried a search but to no avail...
 
It seems, at this point, 11A444d is NOT supported on Core Duo models with the plist removal.

However, the Hackintosh scene has managed to get it running on their machines, so I imagine it's only a matter of time before someone gets it going on a real Mac.

Funny how that works, ain't it? :p
 
bummer, i was hoping this update would be stable enough to use as my daily driver, but since i cant test it on a core duo...

hopefully someone with more knowledge than myself can figure something out and be kind enough to share.
 
Oh snap. Now I randomly have the delete button on all of my launchpad apps (excluding ones included with OS X)

Imagine that! I just tried and all apps that didn't come with OS X have the 'x' button. I wonder how it suddenly happened though.

It's odd, but I'm not complaining. I wonder how well it deletes the apps. Like if it can delete all of the connected folders in the Library.

That'd be great really. That'll mean AppZapper has no place in my Applications folder.
