I haven't played extensively with my wife's machine, so no.

my friend complains a lot about the finder in lion, u notice anything weird with it?

they completely fucked up the icon view in finder.. if you sort by date modified, it creates these groups of like "less than a day ago", "more than 30 days ago" that are a single line of files you have to scroll horizontally. i just want a big ass list of icons sorted by date!!

hi xp

i never use icon view, i don't really "understand" it

the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 15:52 (twelve years ago) link

i have a strange use-case where i need to visually scan over and pick out an image from a huge collection of images; other than that i mostly use detail or column view

∞th-wave ska (diamonddave85), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 15:56 (twelve years ago) link

i guess if you're dealing wiht photos or wtv that's true

the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 15:57 (twelve years ago) link

ack, it looks like the Sprint / Verizon iPhone 4s won't have be unlocked for GSM?

was actually gonna consider springing for one if it did

might just have to get really big pockets to use my ipad as a phone ?

You can change icon view back to the normal style. I only use it for my downloads folder.

I'm on Lion. The only thing annoying is some weird animations when moving stuff around in the Finder. But otherwise I think it's great. And all my software works with it, though I had to wait forever for Xrite to update their monitor calibration software which was like 10 years old.

dan selzer, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 16:12 (twelve years ago) link

i know im gonna have problems with my uh... "special" copy of final draft :S

the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 16:15 (twelve years ago) link

I have no issue with Lion other than not being able to set up spaces in a 2x2 desktop configuration which almost made me revert back but I've gotten used to.

joygoat, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 17:11 (twelve years ago) link

Darn. I can't update to IOS5 with my work computer...

schwantz, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 17:13 (twelve years ago) link

cozen, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 17:14 (twelve years ago) link

in finder, lion made all your folders on the sidebar into ONE COLOR, it's really lame

and still it's going to cost $250 to fix my washing machine. they can put a man on the moon.

the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 19:14 (twelve years ago) link

I have all this power in my pocket.

And I still don't have a washing machine.

dan selzer, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 19:22 (twelve years ago) link

it ended up being cheaper, so you all can relax.

the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 19:28 (twelve years ago) link

oh god, iphone backing up, taking hours

Autumn Almanac, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 19:48 (twelve years ago) link

anyone else finding the restore process not... working?

the jazz zinger (s1ocki), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 19:49 (twelve years ago) link

Loads of reports about that. I'm not even getting that far.

Autumn Almanac, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 19:57 (twelve years ago) link

it didnt work for me at first, then i just restarted my phone and it worked fine

prego, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 19:58 (twelve years ago) link

Mine backed up and immediately gave me some message about an internal error. Giving up, have to go to work.

Autumn Almanac, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 20:01 (twelve years ago) link

is match live yet? that's all I'm interested in, since I never buy anything from itunes

akm, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 20:01 (twelve years ago) link

nah, match isnt out yet

prego, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 20:02 (twelve years ago) link

Saw a couple random glitches in the browser on iOS "gold master" on an iPad, gonna update when I get home and hope it works a bit better

( ) (mh), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 20:26 (twelve years ago) link

Just use a direct download link. Much easier.

groovypanda, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 21:59 (twelve years ago) link

No need for me so far. Downloading the OS X update first, then grabbing iOS 5, then... onward!

Looks like they just released XCode too.

Having people on iMessage is grebt

stet, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 22:54 (twelve years ago) link

is there a way to use that via the desktop yet? ichat? not yet tho?

markers, Wednesday, 12 October 2011 22:55 (twelve years ago) link

I didn't realise but the icloud login screen is where you can create a whole new icloud apple id that's separate from your itunes apple id. Useful for when you've got multiple people sharing one itunes id but need separate icloud ids for doc/contact syncing etc. <-- TYPING THIS gave me a headache.

Autumn Almanac (Schlafsack), Wednesday, 12 October 2011 22:57 (twelve years ago) link

I have a choice of updating my dumb-phone to an iphone 4S or waiting to get iphone 5 when it's released sometime next year

I think it's probably worth the wait

Boy, getting iCloud/Apple to verify my AppleID is a pain. Still waiting on them to send me an email. Otherwise everything else running smoothly.

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 13 October 2011 00:59 (twelve years ago) link

I logged into icloud (from the mac) using my itunes apple id. It fartarsed around for a while, said "INCORRECT PASSWORD" in big red letters for a while, then just logged in as though nothing had ever happened.

Autumn Almanac (Schlafsack), Thursday, 13 October 2011 01:06 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah, nothing quite so smooth like that. Still gives me a 'resent verification email' option and then of course refuses to actually deliver one.

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 13 October 2011 01:09 (twelve years ago) link

'Resend' rather. Anyway.

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 13 October 2011 01:09 (twelve years ago) link

My email came through. iOS 5 never installed for me, mind.

Autumn Almanac (Schlafsack), Thursday, 13 October 2011 01:10 (twelve years ago) link

About to find out if it will for me!

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 13 October 2011 01:11 (twelve years ago) link

i haven't had an apple id in a while so i just signed up for a new account using system preferences --> icloud, and i got in

markers, Thursday, 13 October 2011 01:12 (twelve years ago) link

on my imac

markers, Thursday, 13 October 2011 01:12 (twelve years ago) link

Whut how can u not have had an appleid markers?

stet, Thursday, 13 October 2011 06:41 (twelve years ago) link

my syncing is a total clusterfuck. Google sync via exchange, imap, mobile me account, icloud. Total mess.

dan selzer, Thursday, 13 October 2011 06:46 (twelve years ago) link

Whut how can u not have had an appleid markers?

― stet

don't currently use an ios device, and i use spotify for my music, so i've had no need for it for a while. i deleted it a while back and didn't have a reason to get a new one until now, when i want to test out icloud stuff

markers, Thursday, 13 October 2011 06:49 (twelve years ago) link

iphone all set up and I'm up to the icloud backup setup screen where it's failing but because the language is still in CHINESE i have no idea what the fuck is going on

Autumn Almanac, Thursday, 13 October 2011 08:21 (twelve years ago) link

so apparently i have an icloud problem that the other 250 million ios users haven't had

Autumn Almanac, Thursday, 13 October 2011 08:37 (twelve years ago) link

mac os x lion is worth the $30. gestures and mission control are key tho: swiping from desktop to full-screen iTunes to dashboard is fundamentally easier than Expose/Spaces. I spend less time on the computer now b/c of it.

shaane, Thursday, 13 October 2011 08:55 (twelve years ago) link

Good to see Apple TV is even more packed with useless American shit that I will never ever use and cannot get rid of.

xp even apple hates the apple tv. it hardly seems worth getting excited about.

caek, Thursday, 13 October 2011 09:36 (twelve years ago) link

I never used Spaces before, so I'm still struggling to figure how to get the most of multiple desktops, etc. - I assume you put iTunes on full-screen as a separate desktop?
