The thing I like most about Lion is that right after the install, my Windows 7 machine showed up on a computer that I hadn't ever went through all the hoops I had to go through on Snow Leopard to get other computers to see it.

duck monster posted:also MOTHERFUCKER has YET AGAIN broken my loving python install Apple seems to take the position that the standard UNIX directories are not OK to mess with. You should probably install in a similar way to Macports does where it installs to /opt/ and doesn't mess with the system Python. Don't replace the system python or ruby from /usr/bin/, because things like Installer use it as a scripting language, and you could break weird stuff if /usr/bin/python isn't the same version that is expected. Instead, put your custom python somewhere else, and update your PATH.

Does anyone know how to change what the default finder window opens up to? It's now the "All My Files" folder and I would like to change it to my home folder. Edit: Figured it out.

So for anyone else wondering, QuickTime 7 will install fine in Lion now.Star War Sex Parrot posted:Anyone else notice that Photoshop Elements is on the App Store now? That seems like sort of a big deal to me. I never thought we'd see Adobe aligning to Apple's distribution method, but I guess they don't care about their consumer licensing as much. Still, it gives me hope for Photoshop CS eventually making it there.

When I first started out with Lion, Finder was plain and simply DEAD. I could open 100x windows in it and see them when I right clicked it, but never a chance in hell did I get to one of the windows. Forcing a relaunch made it work again, but that also made this happen: This is the title of the Finder window when I've selected All my files. This says "All my files" for everyone else I know AND my own MBP. What gives?

That'll probably resolve itself once you login/logout, 10.6's did the same thing if you pulled parts out every now and then. There's probably some system service you can kill -HUP to kick it into recycling, but I don't know off the top of my head what that would be. edit: One of my new favourite things is how I can now just Spaces-switch to the Dashboard, as it should have been from the get go. Now I can play TF2 without accidentally hitting the dashboard F-keys

Has anyone bothered making a bootable DVD yet? I did. I just bought a new hard drive, so I'm starting with a clean slate. Installation requires a connection to the Internet, and it does not work with WiFi on some systems. (I tried this on my MacBook Pro 15" Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz, and it couldn't find any networks via WiFi. I had to plug in an Ethernet cable.) You must sign into the Apple Store with the account you purchased Lion with before the install starts. Hello Mac OS X Product Activation. Also, I have no idea what it is installing from the DVD vs from the Internet. It says it is downloading poo poo, and then said there are 5 hours left of the install. It quickly jumped to "2 hours", "1 hour", and now it's down to just 36 minutes left. So I'm guessing it didn't download much. Server Admin Tools are completely hosed. I guess no one running the beta has to work with Mac OS X Server. I think I need to wipe my work system and go back to a clean 10.6 install.

Does anyone know how to fullscreen an app on an external monitor? Whenever I have an app on my external display and put it into fullscreen, it moves to the laptop display and blacks out the external. It's particularly annoying in Quicktime where both the old fullscreen button and the new one do the same thing, seeing as the old fullscreen button used to fullscreen on whatever monitor it was on.

Also is Xcode 4 going to be free for Lion users forever on the App Store? Kind of pissed I paid five bucks when it first hit the App Store since I basically bought it specifically so I'd be ready to install Xcode when Lion shipped  edit: Not rage-pissed, but you know how it is.

1. How can I remove an app from launchpad? Right now I have a ton of apps that I never/rarely use taking up space and I'd rather avoid bundling them all into a "junk" folder. Can I just remove them from the launchpad? Google says ctrl - option - command and click, but that seems to have been a beta thing only as it doesn't work on my install at least. 2. How can I quickly clear the screen to get at the desktop? used to be 4 fingers up but that's mission control now which doesnt seem to let me get at stuff on the desktop. Eg I just downloaded a dmg file in Chrome, mounted it... but now its sat there as a drive on the desktop which I cant easily get at. (Or at least not as easily as previously).

I did not upgrade to Lion yet, but I grabbed all the other free software updates (including the iWorks one) and now my keyboard randomly stops functioning in Pages. I can write a couple of lines and then it just stops responding. I have to manually click on the desktop and then back on the open document in order to resume writing. It happens every 30 seconds or so and pretty much stops me from getting any work done at all. edit: And it's driving me up the wall because I need to get work done. Argh. edit2: Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this? The keyboard is working just fine otherwise. Jack's Flow fucked around with this message at 12:23 on Jul 21, 2011 |

Anyone else having issues with Lion unmounting an external HDD without any visible reason? It gives the error afterwards that the drive wasn't removed correctly etc. I had an issue with Spotlight trying to index the HDD and it constantly gave the error until I made the HDD private.
