Workgroup Manager is busted. I just installed the Server Admin Tools for 10.7. "Server Admin" seems to work, but not "Workgroup Manager". - Every time you open it, it opens with however many connection dialogs you had open, plus one (open it 20 times, it will open with 20 windows). - It will NOT connect. I enter in the server name, username, password, then hit enter - it just sits. I can close the program, so I know it isn't locking. It just isn't connecting or doing anything. I deleted the com.apple.WorkgroupManager* files from ~/Library/Preferences, but it didn't seem to help any.

So I was in such a rush to install Lion that I didn't make myself a copy from the installer. Is there a way to do this after you're on Lion? Re-downloading from the App Store doesn't work because it says I have a newer version already downloaded.

Chrome isn't using the system fullscreen support, it's using its own implementation. Try hitting ⌘-Shift-F.

Hey that's neat, if you set a desktop background it remembers unique ones for each mission control desktop. Did spaces use to do that? (i never really got into using spaces)

Anyone else having trouble running Software Update? I'm getting freezes that can only be fixed by rebooting my machine. EDIT: Maybe this has to do with the Spotlight indexing taking place?

Hopefully they can sort out the issues for Server 10.7.1, because there's a solid foundation underneath the slapdash finish work.

This is me trying to install the newest version of Xcode from the App Store. It's telling me to close iTunes but iTunes was never open to begin with. What do I do? error1 posted:The new Safari version is probably awesome enough to make me switch back from Chrome, full screen browsing and swiping two fingers left and right to navigate pages is implemented really well.

I said come in! posted:This is how I feel as well. I don't really get what Launchpad offers that isn't already available through the Application folder. Or by just typing in the name of the program you want to run through the search. It doesn't offer anything strictly new, but it has advantages over those two methods. For instance, you can't search for an application if you can't remember the name (or misremember the spelling). The Finder interface is a little unintuitive and hard-to-find for new users. And you can reach the launchpad with a single multi-touch gesture. It's not really designed for power users but it's a helpful crutch if you're new to Mac.

How do I add a js-bookmarklet to the Bookmarks Bar in Lion? For example: http://translate.google.com/translate_tools In SL I could just drag the link to the Bookmarks Bar, this doesn’t seem to work anymore. //edit: Nevermind, it works just like it used to. Not sure why I couldn't drop it the first few tries, maybe I had a hidden dialog box open.

I don't mind not using two monitors anymore. Lion + Magic Trackpad = Using swipes to quickly go between apps, and using mission control to get an overview is just great.

will there ever be a way to jump from leopard to lion or is SL always going to be a required step? I've googled around and there's no good info on what will happen down the road. Will the thumb drive edition allow for direct upgrades? I want to upgrade but I'm not in a huge rush, and find it kind of annoying having to buy an OS I will not use.

When I didn't see it, I searched Google. Everything I found said to go into the "Install Mac OS X Lion" package, but after installing, it seems to have deleted itself.

Just installed Lion... Using the reversed scroll thing with the magic trackpad is not bad at all. It actually makes a strange kind of sense. Safari is MUCH more responsive. I don't know why. It was terribly sluggish and occasionally didn't even load pages on 10.6.whatever version it was yesterday. It felt like using Opera when you tell it to "load new page data every 20 seconds". iTunes looks better for some unknown reason. Still fiddling with it, but it is a definite improvement. I'm a new Apple user, but this has made me a bit of a fan. Then again, it kinda frightens me to think of how cruddy Safari might have been for the last 9 years or so for the rest of you. The full screen option is awesome considering the maximize button doesn't actually maximize some windows the way Windows does it. edit: the scrollbar can be turned on in the preferences...

Aww, the new version of Safari got changed the behavior of the back button. It used to do something (always rerun scripts?) that meant unread post counts were accurate when backing into thread lists. Now, it shows the old count like Firefox does, meaning to get the updated counts, I have to hit refresh. The new features are nice otherwise, but that one feature made browsing the forums even nicer. Is there a reason for the new behavior?toady posted:The second monitor is used for auxiliary windows. How so? I tried opening the Organizer from a fullscreen Xcode window, and it actually went through the whole animating to fullscreen deal itself.
