install.jpg

Apple issued a software update for OS X Mountain Lion Developer Preview 3 this evening. Apple released Developer Preview 3 to developers. The update brings the build number of Mountain Lion up to 12A193i (from 12A178q).

If you already have Mountain Lion Developer Preview 3 installed, choose Software Update from the Apple menu to download the update from the Mac App Store. Download Xcode 4.4 Developer Preview 4 from the Mac Dev Center to continue building apps for Mountain Lion Developer Preview 3 Update.

One change noted by 9to5Mac is the addition of a "Do Not Disturb" setting to Mountain Lion's Notifications Center:

Are any of you guys having trouble installing Xcode 4.4 Developer Preview 4? I get a Check Sum Error message each and every time that I try to open it up after downloading it successfully. I am Banned from the Apple Developer Forums but NOT the Program itself (Due to some Bad Behavior in the Apple Developer Forums), or else i would be asking this question there instead of here.

Can anyone with Mountain Lion check if it is able to search Windows File Shares? aka Samba shares not AFP ones.

On Lion you are unable to use the finders Search system for searching for any file on a Windows File Share. But it works fine on AFP ones. This isn't a bug but an intended change by Apple. I'm curious to know if they've altered this in Mountain Lion or not.

Thanks

I'm really, really tempted to install this on my MacBook Air. That Snow Leopard-style Expos? checkbox makes it worth the upgrade alone :laugh:. Anybody (that's not running it on a Hackintosh :p) noticing any weird behavior, or is it pretty stable?

I don?t know if it?s the installation of Mountain Lion that screwed it up, but I couldn?t use Boot Camp after that. Parallels was working fine, but using Boot Camp would end up with a black screen.

I guess I?ll install the final version and stay tuned with the changes instead. I don?t want to install Windows 7 a third time, it?s already painful enough just to do the updates once it?s installed.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.

      Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.

      Logitech MX Creative Console is down to the lowest price by Taras Buria Having a Stream Deck-like device next to your keyboard could be a massive productivity boost. It lets you map specific actions and shortcuts to speed things up, and Logitech has such a device for you with a big 20% discount. Right now, you can save $40 on the Logitech MX Creative Console. The MX Creative Console is an unconventional accessory that consists of two modules. One module has nine customizable buttons, with each having a built-in display for mapping. You can assign apps, shortcuts, actions, or something else. There are nine buttons, plus two more for switching between "pages" of actions. The second module has no displays. Instead, there is a big twisting knob and a small roller for precise adjustments in creative apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity, and more. There are four additional buttons as well. The MX Creative Console is available in two colors: Graphite and Pale Gray. Both are now 20% off, saving you $40. Just keep in mind that the MX Creative Console requires the Logitech Options+ app, which is only available on Windows and macOS. By the way, each unit comes with three months of Adobe Creative Cloud.
