SimpleCoax posted:I think it will get to the point where we will begin to use the email addressing by default. I'm not sure how the phone number addressing would work on other devices. I realized that setting my caller id in facetime and imessage to my email helps when people reply by default it will use the email addressing and get to all my devices. I never thought about it, but there's no email address authentication anyway, so what happens if I just put anyone's email to receive messages at? Now I'm curious. In order to add an email to your Apple ID account, it'll send that email address a confirmation email you'll have to click on.

I assume Xcode 4.3 won't run under Mountian Lion? (I'm guessing you can't compile and submit with 4.4, right?)

Star War Sex Parrot posted:That's what I used, yes. Running just as smoothly, or more so? Another concern I have which was just mentioned was how Xcode plays with it. I know that it's probably better to not bother (although I used iOS 5 for most of its beta and it ran just fine, so I assume it would be similarly so with OS X), but I do love tinkering with new things.

That big dumb blue Reader button in Safari needs to go. I liked it better when it only showed up in the URL bar when it was applicable. Also, does anyone remember the glory of tabs on top?

Any idea why my iMessages wouldn't be updating on my iPhone? Sending works as expected but it doesn't seem aware of my other device (sending or receiving).

The other thing it might be is that by default the phone sends from your phone number rather than your Apple ID. Someone mentioned on the previous page that if you go into Settings->Messages (and also Facetime) that you can change the caller ID (at the bottom of the options screens, you might need to scroll down) of the phone's messages to your Apple ID which should make all messages sent/received to all your devices.

It does seem to be still a bit buggy,all the messages are showing on my phone,but when i power back by MBP from sleep it has missed all the txts while it was sleeping. I was hoping it would refresh and pull them all in,doesnt really deliver on "pick up where u left off on any device" thing.

No problem with Messages and iMessage here. I send an iMessage through Messages, it shows up on my iPhone and iPad. I get a reply, it shows up in Messages and my iPhone and iPad. Use your Apple ID, not your phone number.

Yeah, same Apple ID. Phone has iMessage toggled on and is "receiving at" 2 addresses—my Apple ID, my phone number, and my e-mail address (which looks like 3, but whatever). Caller ID is set to e-mail. FaceTime appears to be set up the same way.

A couple of the preview articles said iCloud will now sync browser tabs between a Mac and an iOS device. I wonder if it only sync the first 8 to iOS devices if you have more than that open in the desktop browser or what it does.

Going to revive a question that was answered several weeks ago: now that Messages overwrites and supplants iChat, how does one remotely connect to and control the desktop of another Mac? iChat screen sharing appears to be on the way out.CaptainCaveman posted:MacWorld and The Verge both reference it, although MacWorld's article says they didn't see it yet in the version they tested.

Why does it appear to be on the way out? It's still in Messages. Messages is (at least as this point) just iChat with iMessage bolted on. Everything that was there is there, but you can now use iMessage as well.

Molten Llama posted:Why does it appear to be on the way out? It's still in Messages. It seems to me the big difference between iMessage and say something like Jabber or AIM, is that iMessage has no notion of a "buddy list" and there's no way to tell if someone is "online" or not. I guess the assumption is that people will always be available with iMessage?

Binary Badger posted:I believe under Sarbanes-Oxley, they can't give it away.. SOX laws prohibit a publicly traded company from giving away (or just letting you have it for free) an unadvertised new feature on a product you already paid for. They changed things up a few years ago cause some new accounting practices became available. Before I think the only options were to recognize revenue all at once at purchase, or evenly prorated out over some (arbitrary?) period. This is why before the iPods had paid iOS updates while the iPhone got free ones, and why iPhone revenues were all funky for a while. What they're able to do now is recognize the bulk at purchase with some smaller amount spread out over time, which is why iPods get free iOS updates now too. tl;dr There may be nothing accounting wise stopping them from doing a free update...assuming they count Mac revenue the same way, which I forget if they do  . I can check later if anyone is really anal about $30, or you can look on your own on their investor pages, just look for their quarterly filing and the section on revenue recognition.Chainclaw posted:I have an odd situation with the doc at the bottom I would like a solution for. I'm using Mac OS X 10.7.2. There is a piece of software I use on my Mac that I now have two versions installed, and use both multiple times per day. I would like to have both in the doc, with an obvious marking of which is which, either different colors, or ideally the version number on top of it. I tried some googling, but I don't think I understand enough about Mac OS to build a good search string. - Make some icons yourself in any drawing app, then just copy and paste to the apps. You do that by getting info, clicking the icon, then cmd-v to paste. - Make aliases to the apps then do the icon thing with them, and rename to whatever you want. echobucket posted:Hrm, so I thought that Mountain Lion doesn't support my macbook because it's got 32-bit EFI.

Isn't the HD icon hidden from the desktop by default anyway? At least they moved "Devices" to the bottom of the sidebar in finder windows in Lion.

Heh, when 10.7 was announced I remember joking that the next version would be called 'mountain lion'.  Messages is awesome for the most part, even if it makes me less patient for all the new features. I'm also pretty happy about OS X moving to a yearly update cadence in sync with iOS, though I wonder to what degree that was a post-Steve decision or not.

I'm pretty stoked about the new OS update too, however I'm wondering if a year update cycle in "Late Summer" will alter their Mac product release line at all. I know that Lion released and iMac's got refreshed with the "Buy a mac now and get [Mountain] Lion when it comes out" type of stuff.
