Nepton Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Net info manager no longer in utilities folder or in leopard in general?... or maybe not on my version of leopard i dl. I run it from my tiger partition though and it worked fine. using spaces if u drag in example one window of ichat on space and another window on another space returning to finder and clicking ichat it cycles between the 2 of them.

Nepton Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 i can also say what i havent learned where are back drop effects on i chat? :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moksha Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I've also learned that, interestingly enough, iChat uses the opposite mirroring than Photo Booth does. Photo Booth mirrors the left side of the screen, while iChat mirros the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Law Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 This is insanely great IMO: if you've got plenty of pictures in your iPhoto Library, check out the new photo screensavers in Mosaic mode. Stunning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Law Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 And - as I upgraded my Tiger installation I have no way of checking whether this was in Tiger too, but if you press Apple + Alt whilst in Expose, it shows all the titles for all the windows. Wish I could make that default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriX Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Not a big deal but Photobooth uses a different color profile in the newer one. That means you cant make your old pictures work with the new photobooth Hey Virtuallball (he codes things at iPodLinux (I assume it's the same one) , and I made the iPod Application Manager at iPodLinux) Anyway, in Leopard, Adium doesn't launch unless it's the Beta 1.0 version, and Transmission doesn't launch either... Some other similar errors in other apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomozj Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Time Machine had to be turned off due to it taking lots of space. It isnt as good as i thought it would be either. It needs to take backups, and that slows down your mac a tiny bit i find. And the fact it puts Volumes.backupdb or whatever folder on all Volumes, even the ones you opt-out of is so annoying. (in that folder the backups are kept) I like the new help menu, and the fact you can search commands in applications. I uninstalled Leopard to reinstall Windows. But i haven't done that yet. Didnt want to resit a wait of hours. Also, a very nice improvement is that Leopard takes about 3 minutes to install. Literally. I'm not sure if this is just a developer preview thing or what, but it's nice. Another new thing is when you are installing something, at the end it makes a little 'ding ding ding' sound like iTunes does when your converting songs for example. I actually got this off Rapidshare, no torrenting involved -tj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iDarbert Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 It needs to take backups, and that slows down your mac a tiny bit i find. Yes, HDD usage slows down the machine sensibly And the fact it puts Volumes.backupdb or whatever folder on all Volumes, even the ones you opt-out of is so annoying. That's odd, mine doesn't - it creates a ComputerName.backupdb in the Backup Drive only. Also, a very nice improvement is that Leopard takes about 3 minutes to install. Literally. I'm not sure if this is just a developer preview thing or what, but it's nice. Mine took much longer - 10-15 minutes at least. Another new thing is when you are installing something, at the end it makes a little 'ding ding ding' sound like iTunes does when your converting songs for example. Yeah, that's nice - but you can be sure lots people will find it annoying...

Numberzz Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Look, in 9A283 it has a host of new features including: Basic Editing in Preview A "Sleep function that saves all contents in memory and uses almost no power.

munky Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 that whole 'sleep mode' thing macrumors claimed to have 'found'.. its been part of the mac experience since the last generation of PowerBooks, and OS 10.4.3, and is called Safe Sleep. ALL intel macs can do it already. by default it only happens during normal sleep if the reserve power runs out, or you can use this widget to force it to happen at any time macrumors is just lame. i'm still waiting for the 'macbook thin' and the 'imac gamers edition' which they claimed were just around the corner...

aliquis Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Sorry, Kazuran - I didn't see your post until now. Images and videos are fine. We just had to close the other thread since Apple tends to prosecute those who share files (or facilitate their sharing).Shares what files and how?

Adrian Fogge Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Not necissarily "rotation" support, but they do have the ability to specify resolutions such as 720x1024 which would in effect be a rotation but limited to 90 degrees clockwise.

Numberzz Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I just saw this, but there is a server widget in dashboard. I dont have a server, so i dont actually know ow it looks. It is the black widget on the right. I also want to say that apple's weather widget is very bad. It is way colder(37º). It has been cold in the bay area lately.

odedia Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 It looks like localization works completely now. Specifically, now in the International section of System Preferences, I can set EVERYTHING to Arabic! Now, that is impressive that we have an OS that actually works with Right-to-Left input and work immediately across the board. Either way, it is much better than Microsoft's Arabic implementation, in which you only have a few menu options translated, even in Vista. While folders are still named the same thing, it looks like they will work with Arabic characters for filenames and paths, including changing /Users to /المستخدم The only problem that I have run into is that the Text-to-Speech system 100% does not work with Non-latin languages. (Think crash) Apple is set to take a major chunk of the non-english speakers or multilanguage users with this enhancement! مبروك, تهنئة Sadly, this is NOT the case with Hebrew. Although Arabic and Hebrew are both right-to-left langauges, Hebrew is NOT supported (non of the menus is translated), and things start to get messed up once Hebrew is the leading language. For example: spotlight can't find anything! I type "d" and get ONE result! This is really a shame. It's so easy to implement once Arabic is there.

odedia Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) Setting up a fax machine to be your bluetooth-enabled cell phone is VERY easy now. It used to be incredibly hard on Tiger, having to hunt down the driver somewhere in the file system - and for me, it still didn't work at all. Now in leopard, it's just there in the Fax dialog settings. And I can actually see my cellphone trying to dial, although I couldn't send a fax but I think that's because the network doesn't support it.

Adrian Fogge Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Learned that Apple is no longer interested in following the schedule that they have used for the past few years in releasing developer seeds. Now we can have no idea when to expect new builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
