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.

    • Microsoft Edge 149.0.4022.52

      By wingliston · Posted

      It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.

    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The mind behind widely well-received games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, Fumito Ueda, showed up at Summer Game Fest today, and that was to reveal his latest project. Being developed by genDESIGN, Gen Atlas is incoming with what looks to be plenty of mech and robot action. Watch the reveal trailer, which makes not much sense, above. The game will have players waking up on an abandoned planet where deserted facilities and grand designs from the original creators remain. Soon, they will stumble upon a colossal robot, from which players gain access to the power to change the world. "Across an endless expanse of time, the remnants of those forgotten constructs begin to move once more," adds the studio. The gameplay snippets seen in the trailer show the player character climbing giant robots (as expected from the creator), while also controlling these titans somehow as well. This is a fully single-player open-world adventure. “The team and I are grateful to all the fans who’ve been eager to learn more about our game,” says Fumito Ueda, CEO and creative director of genDESIGN. “Their passion and enthusiasm has always motivated and inspired us. We hope to share an experience that inspires moments of quiet wonder and discovery.” Before gaining the name Gen Atlas, Ueda first announced this project back in 2024 with the codename Project Robot. Interestingly, this will be a project being funded and published by Epic Games, which should mean that a Steam release is out of the question. Gen Atlas will be releasing on Epic Games Store, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced just yet.

      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.
