OS X 10.12 codename Fuji - What we know about it....


2016 is here, and what we can expect about Apple's WWDC of this year?

 

Well, research and expectations about the new Apple OS X are already growing.

 

The web public call OS X 10.12 of "Fuji", hmmm, maybe there is something wrong, because since Mavericks, Apple choose California locations for nominate their systems.

 

Beyond the new name, perhaps we have in OS X the following new features:

  • Siri - We expected this since El Capitan :P
  • A native Swift app for devs
  • New filesystem, a replacement for the HFS+
  • More integration with others Apple's systems, e.g: Apple Watch, iOS and Apple TV

Well this is what we know per hour.

 

But and you guys?

What do you know and want to see in this new OS X?

 

Please share with us ;)

Hummm, this means that we have to wait also a new implementation about read/write other Filesystem from this new one?

This is truly a speculation thread, so no concrete details in stone here....

Yet. ;)

  • AMD CPU Support... 

We can only hope for it one day  :hysterical:

 

 

And you know who used to manufacture Upgrade cpu's for the G4's... and then got shut out with the Power Mac... bogus

I wouldn't trust anymore rumors about the amd support. There was one that last year they might have a mac with an amd cpu, but I was doubtful and it didn't happen. Once I get the i7 the AMD will probably only be for Windows 10.

Only if Apple acquires Parallels engine  :P

Lol, they just might. They have been buying a few companies of late. :D

Personally, I would like to see an option to change the look back to the aesthetic of Mavericks, as El Capitan's kindergarten pallet isn't suited to everyone.

I started out not liking the Yosemite/El Capitan look.. but it has kinda grown on me, and I think I like it.

I highly doubt there will be such thing as officially running OSX on a PC, or that Switch to OSX Assistant.

Apple has always been niche about their products, not only their operating systems.

I am very interested in the upgrade process though, how will one be able to upgrade, even on a real Mac, to a whole new file system!

We are expecting a lot from Apple this year :)

I see what you mean. I started off hating it (when Yosemite came out. Hell, I was pissed that they removed the linen from Mission Control with Mavericks!) but now, I don't hate it, I just dislike it. So, I'm sticking with Mavericks for now. Obviously, I have an El Capitan partition (About 20GB, just to test things).

 

But when the time comes, when Mavericks becomes obsolete, I suppose I will just have to live with it.

Ultimate support for USB devices and no more Port Restrictions :D also should be Documentation of Optimus Technology so dev can find the way to run both Intel and NVIDIA graphics like real Macbook or Windows system does :D

Siri on the Mac would be nice, but it is pure speculation at this point. 

 

This thread looks more like a wishlist instead of "what we know about it"

Okay, what Mac OS (X) users want:

  • tiling windows à la Aerosnap, the current approach is useless and embarrassing (to say the least, thank doge there's Cinch.app)
  • reintroduce the windows name as an overlay over each window in Exposé/Mission Control, having to hover everything to know what it is, is annoying and time consuming for no reason at all
  • FLAC support (it's everywhere where I am, Apple is not, what's happening here? No cash cow to be found with FLAC?)
  • A disk utility that wasn't made out of fisher price
  • Photos/iPhoto/iTunes approach for documents (PDFs, txts, rtfs etc.) as the Finder is still a bit short on sorting documents in an easy way
  • Improve network sharing across als OSs as this is still a mess in all of my environments
  • Vulkan support
  • Cut and Paste support in Finder (huge lol on that one btw)

Of course nothing of this will happen.

 

What will happen instead:

The prices for the usable hardware will skylakerocket, the Mac Pro will be reduced to one port (power cord), the rest will be attached to it via Bluetooth (everybody who needs more than beats by Dr. Red and magic peripherials should go with the times anyway).

All MacBook flavours will be reduced to one USB type C "mini" port (do not worry, the adapter will only cost 50$ each and will work 90% of the time and it will never break, just like the Apple Pencil. The real innovation is, that the USB Type-C mini port is located at the bottom of the device), the rest of all communication will be handled via AirPort (AirPort now comes with a skymarshall included, sponsored by NSA Inc.) and NFC (Apples name: iWave, not to be confused with Apple Pay), which Apple of course invented/revolutionized (again).

Also you will get the ability to turn on your new Mac with maximum security using Forehead ID: Just slam your forehead on the Apple Inc. logo et voilá: Your Mac will magically turn on. Completely secure. It's amazing.

The Finder.app will be pimped with tumblr, reddit and YouPorn integration (of course I'm joking on the last one).

 

 

Happy hacking! :D

The only certainty is the YouPorn integration.

I dont think Apple will be reading on any of the comments on the wishlist from any Hacker's website. It would be something that would mean Apple isnt Apple anymore.. So maybe you should communicate your wishes for OSX 10.12 in one of their websites.

 

I had to comment because I find disturbing that some people ridiculing something that they are trying to use/really want to use.

Anyway the title of this topic should be OSX 10.12 wishlist, because if you come here for info, you will be more lost than John Travolta in that Pulp Fiction scene.

You know, looking at the background picture, That looks like Mount Shasta to me. That is probably the new name.

That would be wonderful! HFS+ is a trash as well as NTFS.

 

Apple should adopt ZFS once and for all!

 

 

Apple did have ZFS for a while then dropped it, it was way worse then HFS and if you really want it there is ZFS for OSX.

  • A native Swift app for devs
  • New filesystem, a replacement for the HFS+
  • More integration with others Apple's systems, e.g: Apple Watch, iOS and Apple TV

 

1. Is xCode not native enough?

 

2. Why do we need a new filesystem? I hear people say they need one but not once have they said why or give a reason why HFS+ is no good.

 

3. What kind of integration do you want? I don't quite understand this one.

To anyone wanting to know why HFS+ sucks, I recommend John Siracusa's rant on Hypercritical: http://5by5.tv/hypercritical/56

He's also touched on it in his epic OS X reviews on Ars.

Well, one thing immediatly comes to my mind and thats case insensitivity. I had quite a few situations where I didnt catch case errors with certain files on my local test system (I do web development), but suddenly my sites borked on remote servers - which are case sensitive in any case. And sometimes these errors are not easily detectable (i.e. throwing no 404 etc) and can be quite nasty to debug until you realize whats the cause.

 

I know that you can format with a case sensitive option, but that is known to cause problems and not recommended in general.

 

But even without that certain type of issue, my opinion is that a case insensitive file system is pretty weird in itself. I mean the path "/bla" is NOT the same as "/BLA", right? And imho *no* FS should treat these two paths equal.

it's enough

 

EDIT

I agreed that the case insensitive one It's certainly an abomination, perhaps even at Apple they have not already understood what is a possible scenario when a user need it..at least since 1998

Finally something new (concrete) about OS X 10.12 "Fuji".

 

Maybe Apple will bring Siri to this version of OS X, the icon will be in Menubar side to Spotlight and Notification Center.

 

You can see a Mockup made by @markgurmanin.
