    Does iTunes work for you???

    iTunes for OS X does not support Full Screen visuals...yet. I'm guessing you guys didn't read your Read Me's. The buttons across the bottom are, from left to right: NEW PLAYLIST SHUFFLE REPEAT / REPEAT 1 (one click, two clicks) VISUALIZE EJECT You can also play by GENRE, as well...

    Human Interface Standards, the Dock and More...

    I love the idea of moving the Apple Menu to the zright side! Although it would break the System/Application/File/Content/... organization of the menu bar right now, I almost never use the Apple Menu (except for 'sleep), and it would be nice to have the App menu in the upper-left corner. I have...

    MacOS X on my Cube

    I was disappointed by the lack of microphone, as well. I would be interested in hearing about 'microphone success stories'...

    Human Interface Standards, the Dock and More...

    First off, well said strobe! Secondly, here are some ideas. I think instead of complaining, maybe peopple should come to these forums to say "Hey, I miss Apple Menu Control Panel access. Anyone figured out a workaround?" Then myself and others could offer helpful tips, like: 1. To...

    Can "iMac Computer" Finder icon be changed to G4 Cube??

    Please don't take this the wrong way, I'm not trying to be rude, but... If everyone will read through the (40)page booklet that came with OS X, it clearly states that the icon for 'computer' will not change in OS X. It changes in OS 9.1, though. I forget where it is in the book, I think...

    Give me a BREAK

    Has anyone had this problem: When you download a jpeg or gif,...etc from OmniWeb, you get a generic JPEG or GIF icon? But when you download the same things from IE, you get a high quality (128x128, i think) preview icon?

    This is one of my big beefs! It seems like people are complaining too quickly. Sure they can say "Hey, I miss this or that. Has anyone figured out some way to replace it?" And in most instances, as you have demonstrated (and you can see my suggestion for replacing spring-loaded folders in...

    Sping-loaded Folders

    One of the things that I missed the most after moving from OS 9 to OS X was spring-loaded folders. I don't miss them anymore! I now drop my most used folders right onto my totally customizable Finder window toolbar, and now I suddenly have something better than spring-loaded folders...

    Give me a BREAK

    FYI The Filer: You can put your config in as your signature! ---------- I agree! I have very little problems in terms of speed. Window resizing is a little behind my cursor (it's certainly a small price to pay for everything else we get with OS X), but window moving is seemless and fast...

    Installed Mac OS X on a cube..

    I had a seamless install on a Cube, as well. However, I am not a developer, as you obvioulsy are. I'm just a home user surfing, emailing,...etc. I use Text Edit as my word processor (which seems similar to WriteNow from NeXT days), Graphic Converter, and some games. Oh, and iTunes--which I...

    what a nice mail.app!

    It seems as if Mail is based upon the original Mail app from NeXTSTEP. It functions pretty much the same way, and besides the shiny new Aqua colors, the GUI is similar. However, I remember reading a job posting at Apple that was loking for soemone to trun Mail into the best email client out...

    I love everybody! What a great idea. This is one of those ideas that you hit yourself on the head with a duh!, and say, "Now, why didn't I think of that?!" Thanks Rob!

    Icon Previews

    Well, I finally got it to work, but I needed Graphic Converter. When I originally downloaded Graphic Converter, I was still using IE, which would always use StuffIt in Classic (which I never figured out how to stop). Needless to say, when I installed Graphic Converter, it went through...

    Icon Previews

    Thanks for the info. I'm going to try a couple things out in GCoverter preferences. Two quick questions for you: 1. How's the speed of OS X with MP? 2. How's the Que! CDRW? I was just looking at one, but I'm still undecided. I'll have to reboot to 9.1, of course, but it's a small...

    Pong

    FYI: I just downloaded Pong 2001 from Apple's OSX download page last night, and had nothing but problems from the get-go. The download itself went fine, but once I installed it, the paddle control keys wouldn't respond (even after trying to change them in preferences). Then, I quit and tried...

    So much for SoundJam

    I agree with endian. I thought that iTunes was basically reworked from Soundjam and they got the programmer from C+G...? Why would C+G contniue development of Soundjam for OSX if Apple is paying them for iTunes...? and stole their programmer?

    Icon Previews

    Thanks, but not what I'm referring to. I know about the Dock, and all that. What I'm referring to is in a Finder window. You can choose List, Browser/Column, or Icon view. In Icon view, through view options you can scale the size of your icons just as you can on the desktop or in the Dock...

    Icon Previews

    Aren't my icons for graphic files (jpg, gif, tiff...etc) supposed to automatically preview in the Finder when using icon view. I realize that I can get a preview in column/browser view or through Apple+I, but I thought one of the neato tricks of X was the automatic preview icons that scaled for...

    Window resize

    I just noticed this last night, QuickTime uses grey-outlines, like iTunes, to resize.
