Just Wondering, What's Really New?

I installed Mountain Lion this afternoon with no problems at all. The speed has come back to what I remember from my Snow Leopard days and all my software works fine. That is great! Another smooth and reliable upgrade.
But really, what else is new? Yeah, they split out the reminders and todo lists. But other than that (somewhat trivial), I just don't see much else that is different from Lion! OK, the increase speed is well worth the $20. Is there anything else substantial for those of us who are running an older 2009 machine? Seems like the iOS updates for my iPad and Touch pack in more obvious changes.
Just wondering...

  • Just wondering what Apple's stand is on the issue with a flickering and a dark area appearing on imac 27"screen - forums seem to indicate this is not uncommon - and happens through normal use - so should be subject to repair (Sale of Goods Act - 6 years)

    Just wondering what Apple's stand is on the issue with a flickering and a dark area appearing on imac 27"screen - forums seem to indicate this is not uncommon - and happens through normal use - so should be subject to repair (Sale of Goods Act - ie 6 year warranty)

    We are just users like yourself.  If Apple has stated publicly about the problems you mentioned, it will be listed on their website and/or in one of their Knowledge Base Articles.
    I have a 27" & do not suffer from such a problem.  You should keep in mind that these are technical support forums. Generally, the only people posting here are those with problems. The thousands/millions without problems don't ever come here. 
    Think of these forums as a hospital emergency room.

    I was just wondering what do the different color circles mean when I've located my iphone. So far I've seen a green dot with a green bigger outlined circle around it , a gray circle , a gray circle with a gray bigger outline around it , a real big green circle like the whole circle is dark green. I'm mainly just wondering can you tell if they are texting or using the phone at the time or if its on off or on vibrate is that what those different colors mean?

    I was just wondering if it is possible to link to airport express router wirelessly to expand the range of the connection?
    If the other router is another AirPort or Time Capsule, then the answer is yes. How you would configure both AirPorts would depend on whether they are 802.11n or 802.11g models.

  • So what's really new in iTunes Match 10.52?

    10.52 was released today, and I've installed it.  I was hoping it would deal better with a bunch of albums I've imported where it can match some of the songs, but not all of them.  I actually logged it, and will put it in another post.   But my initial tests don't show any differences.
    So what actually IS different in iTunes Match 10.52?   As someone who uses this, I'd like to know.

    Eric is correct. The link is to a page that shows what's new in 10.52, The very first paragraph states:
    About iTunes 10.5.2
    iTunes 10.5.2 includes several improvements for iTunes Match and fixes an audio distortion problem when playing or importing certain CDs.

  • Just wondering, what kinda tools do you prefer for data modeling

    Reading alot about datamodeling, from E-R diagrams to UML. In your database designs. From the conceptual, logical and physical model. What tool you prefer the most and why. What is a good tool for such things. And does Oracle supply such tools. Just curious as to what the professionals use.

  • Solved Just wondering what the heck this app is called!! xD

    So i've been trying to find the name of this application. But maybe i'm not referring it correctly within the search so maybe you guys could help me. I'm looking for that app that originally comes with arch bang that is like a HUD with all the computer information and real time updates. Any Ideas?!?! also any suggestions on what i should use for a task bar? ohh also! is there anyway to get that cool predifind text that enters in automatically when you open a terminal on the original arch? i like that feature i think its pretty cool.
    Last edited by Sicariuxs (2012-11-10 16:50:11)

    I meant like. you know how in arch bang when you start up a terminal it automatically fills out a design of the arch logo and then it allows you to type in your commands--thats what i was looking for! just thought it would be cool to add.

  • What is really new in JSC2 Update 1?

    Are there any enhancements made to update 1 except DB change, new version of application server bundled and all the hot fixes and patches included witch were already available to JSC2.

    I assume nothing. Updates do not imply new features, do they? If there were a lot of new features it would be called Creator 3, not Creator 2 Update 1, I guess.
    So, if improved stability and performance is not important....
