The Official Mac OS X "Tiger" Thread


Recommended Posts

If you really do have 8A428, then please post a screenshot of just the "About this Mac" box.  If it truly is GM, then you certainly couldn't get in any trouble for posting that screenshot.

Until you can prove otherwise, I'm still calling you a liar on that.

Thank you. I guess you weren't lying then. That just means that someone inside Apple was actually crazy enough to give out a copy then.

thank you

listen its not someone from apple oh leaked it and what not... how can I explain this without blowing everything out of proportion.

say apple is partners with... I don't know a graphic card company (this is all hypothetical btw) they need to test the drivers right! well they need to constently be up to date with apple and there new fixes, so when they release there OS the hardware has to work or even certain software for that matter. so that's how I got it. its no what you know, its who you know.

Sorry, wallpapers from "Tiger" are not allowed to be posted.

Radish?

sorry guys the grand puba has spo:)n :)

I am looking forward to Tiger, I have been using the application Quicksilver and I hope Spotlight is a good replacement for it.

I have to admit though spotlight is lightning fast! its very similar google desktop

So I guess this means that a new revision of all the Apple computers its going to happen soon :)

Good since I need to switch soon

I would say so yes. I hope apple comes out with something a practicle...not sure how to explain that, but just somthing fresh.

im with you [sanctified] im hoping for new imacs or even a good powermacs cause i'd be up for a low end pm.

i need to get my hands on something more powerful-ish, tiger is looking very nice. call this an update if you will (those that do) but this baby i looking great and im happy for it to be a new release.

I thought that Spotlight only searches for things on your computer, not the internet.

I hope i'm wrong, because if Spotlight did do that, well that's awesome.

No, they are not quite the same.

But QuickSilver will be updated to take advantage of tigers spotlight technology, you can read about it on the blacktree forums ;)

the one thing I really noticed that was really cool, tiger is much faster then panther. Response time is like quadruple!

Yeah, it is a lot faster, and I have not even used any of the resent builds.

Where did you get that information from?

From Tiger's Extras.rsrc file... The 2 elements used for Plastic are called something like PlasticWindowTall.tiff and PlasticWindowSmall.tiff. Don't know the exact name but I'll look it up for you if you want to. :)

    • Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.
    • The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
