Is that based on you trying the iOS 6 beta?

Yes, on both my iPad & iPhone. I've had several conversations that either never appear entirely, or only parts of the message appear on the other devices. I've been chalking it up to the fact that it is an issue with the beta.

the mail app does need to be running in order for it to sync and receive emails (obviously), you can close the window though as it will continue to run in the background (like most other mac apps when you only close the window)

Damn, they did something with a dock, because sometimes it without my will turn on from autohide :< I put it alwayes in autohide mode and never (since leopard) had got any problem - now from time to time dock made himself visible "just because". And I have to right-click and choose "autohide" again -.-. Damn!

Download the Facebook Developer Preview like I did. It?s 400KB, it?s only an enabler.

But it doesn?t really get me the notification banners I checked :(

The Facebook DP never worked properly for me, so I don't think I'll be installing that one again.

Really wish I either waited until they released an update or two, or did a clean install (for the first time ever, again, never had any issues prior with just updating).

I am having a multitude of issues, some of the larger ones being...

Macbook has restarted itself twice now with an error report. I did not really bother trying to make sense of it.

I can no longer see my NAS device (Synology DS211j) under Shared, and can only connect to it via IP, typing it's host name no longer works. I also used to automatically mount it on startup, no such luck anymore. Fails to find server even though it is there. Synology does not have any updates yet for the DSM software.

Speaking of Network issues, it drops connection to my WiFi network sporadically.

Oh yeah, AirPlay no longer sees my Apple TV as a device, even if I restart it, restart the computer, etc. I already did the AirPlay mirroring on Day 01, so it once did work.

Network connected printer is also hit or miss, even with latest software from HP.

So yeah, running theme here is everything network related seems really screwed up.

I am also experiencing intermittent freezing just doing normal things as well.

Going to wait and see if the first major update does anything, but I am not holding my breath. Looks like I need to do a clean install sooner than later.

Why can't I share videos to YouTube? I don't use Vimeo.

However, Vimeo does have better video quality. Only gripe is you can upload only 1HD video per week, others will get downscaled. (until you become a premium member)

Thats fail! Plus Vimeo has a tiny user base compared with YT.

Just a follow up, I'm unable to download XCode 4.4 because my version of OS X is too new.... well, erm, no it's not!!!

Just admit it CPressland; you're secretly running OS X 10.9, refusing to tell and provide us with screen shots. Man you're lame!

:p

I did the upgrade over my Lion install and so far haven't had any breaking issues. Would like to start seeing some of my iOS apps coming to OS X (MLB At Bat, ESPN, Facebook, etc) because at this point notifications seem pointless. Almost everything is done through the web.

I managed to install XCode 4.4 on top of my old XCode 4.4 (that was downloaded from the member center)

This is what I've ended up doing.

Oh no! You've figured me out! Apple will think I've broken the pact of secrecy now?!

Google Chrome just got updated with native Retina Support - but the framerates when scrolling on Web Pages still sucks, hopefully this is something that can be improved.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI

      They themselves used AI slop to convert its C++ codebase to Rust. But I do agree with their concerns.

    • Microsoft resumes forced Copilot app installation on some Windows PCs

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft resumes forced Copilot app installation on some Windows PCs by Usama Jawad Late last year, Microsoft planned to begin the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on certain Windows PCs. However, in March 2026, it disabled this process due to a technical issue and informed customers that it would let them know when it would resume. It seems like that was only a temporary respite, as the Redmond tech giant has started the forced installation of the app on eligible devices. In an update on its Message Center for IT admins, Microsoft has informed customers that it is resuming the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot on commercial Windows PCs that have Microsoft 365 apps already installed. What this means is that if you have Microsoft Office apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and more installed on your Windows PC through a Microsoft 365 license, you'll likely see the Microsoft 365 Copilot app pop up in your Installed Apps section soon, too. Fortunately, IT admins do have some control over this rollout. If they choose to opt out, devices in their tenant won't automatically get the dreaded Copilot app. However, phased rollout via feature flags has already begun and is expected to be completed by the end of June: Feature Flag1: started Jun 4, expected to finish June 10 Feature Flag2: expected to start on June 11, expected to finish on June 17 MSGraph schema rollout: expected to start on June 18, expected to finish on June 24 Feature Flag3: expected to start on June 25, expected to complete by July 1st Microsoft hasn't detailed what the process is to toggle the feature flags in its Message Center, and its public support page does not seem to mention it yet either. The Redmond tech giant has encouraged IT admins to let users know beforehand so they aren't caught by surprise to see a new app seemingly installed without manual interaction or their consent. Users who already have the app installed or are based in the European Economic Area (EEA) are unaffected by this move, which Microsoft has understandably flagged as a "major change".
