Mac OS X 'Leopard'-related Discussion

[Neil]

Well I got my disc this morning and did a clean install and everything is fine, it is so much quicker than Tiger!

[KeR]

back to what someone asked earlier...anyone have the wallpaper from OS X Server?

[Dazzla Veteran]

Another strange one, I don't seem able to enable .Mac syncing. It lists all of the correct .Mac details on the Account tab but checking Synchronize with .Mac does nothing.

Is this what you mean KeR?

being able to set programs to open in only a certain space is great :) especially when you just have a macbook with a tiny screen

Just a quick question. I've got a Boot Camp partition set up, where I moved all my documents, as I want to perform a clean install on my primary OS X partition. If I choose the Erase and Install method, will my Boot Camp partition stay intact?

Yeah. Windows partitions stay intact. Its fine.

I'm a bit disappointed that Safari's progress bar doesn't change to Graphite. It still has to be hue-shifted and junk then replaced manually. Blue is awful in Leopard... :x Graphite is sexy though.

Spotlight is so insanely fast. I don't think I'll even need Quicksilver....

Anyone had problems accessing http://www.hotmail.com in Safari? Works fine in Firefox but its just constantly reloading in Safari.

It loads fine for me. (Y)

That's why I don't even bother reading Neowin's front page. It's a Microsoft fanboy's paradise.

QFT ;)

One bug I've found is when you return to your desktop from Front Row, the mouse cursor has disappeared. Anyone else got this problem?

I'm getting too. I can move around and see the dock magnify and stuff, but I can't see the actual pointer. :(

Yes I have problems loading hotmail in Safari... it tells me to download a more recent browser : Internet Explorer 6.0

Microsoft will never cease to impress me!

So to summarize... I cannot have my hotmail account in Mail anymore, and I cannot load it in Safari! I really need to sort this out someway...

httpmail is a biggie for me....

I also just bought an external disk to use with time machine + extra space (500 gigs vs. de 60 i have now). I plan to get an extra gig of ram for my macbook next weekend, to give time to my new rive to come home and also in case there a any serious updates to leopard.

as of next weekend, i will be joining you guys :)

Anyone have any idea how to set up a network with Windows computers using Bonjour? I have Bonjour for Windows installed on them, but it just isn't working. My 2 Leopard machines work flawlessly, see each other, and my first Leopard install saw the Tiger install straight away, but the 2 Vista machines I want to work just won't go. Once they're set up, I presume that it's easy to set up a printer, like Apple says it is.

Yup. That's what I'm getting. :(

[MasterC]

Yup. That's what I'm getting. :(

It just happened to me again, and what I did to fix it was move the mouse down to the dock and open Safari. As soon as Safari opened, the pointer was back. That's kind of weird :|

Quick. Everyone try the Photo Mosaic Screensaver.

Choose a photo album from the Desktop & Screen Saver control panel, then click on the 3rd "Display Style" (Mosaic). Under Options set the screensaver to Fast and then click test. Awesome. :)

Retro and Security screensavers are still present too in Developer Tools.

Once installed copy two files

Retro.qtz and Security.qtz

from:

/Developer/Examples/Quartz Composer/Compositions/Screen Savers/

To:

/Library/Screen Savers/

Enjoy!

I just finished reinstalling Leopard. I did an upgrade the first time and had some residual bugs that I wanted to squash so I went with an erase & install the second time since I have a system backup. I was surprised how well the setup assistant worked. My iTunes and iPhoto settings, ratings, etc all exactly as the were. I am really quite impressed with Apple. And now, I have not seen a bug rear it's head. Very happy with Leopard right now.

Does anyone have a list of the current version of all the application in Leopard? Stupid as I am, when I tried to install iLife from my iMac install discs, I didn't select custom to just install iLife. Instead I installed all the optional applications of Tiger.

I did a system update but Im still not sure if that'll update everything to Leopard version.
