What are irresistible features of the new OS X Mavericks

OS X Mavericks, I was definitely impressed with the smooth transistion I had while upgrading from Mountain Lion, still looking around.
What are the best features in this new OS that helps you with your "Productivity", "Easy of Use" or "Functionality" ?

Here are the major differences between Mavericks and Mountain Lion:

What are your opinion on the new mac pro

I feel while radical its too limiting thereby loosing fuctionality. But I also knw how the iSheeps would follow their iSheperd blindly. There making this kind of thunderbolt for everything the norm. I also know that the PC companies brought this on themselves they failed to innovate followed intel and nvidia to blindly with there xeons and quadro. The 3 major pc makers market professional workstations that you would probaly sell ur kidney to get one we have the z820 while very powerful its just 2 xpensive. Let's take for example the imac is the best bang for d buck most beautiful all in one if hp had used say a normal 3770k and a gtx 680m 4gb dat would have brought the price of the z1 down drastically. Let's say d average joe wants to be an editor, compositor, colorist. if u goole pc workstations hp z820 and dell T7600 would pop up but they are dam so xpensive hp consumer PCs are garbage. If there is onething apple knows the average pro does not want to be bothered with specs. I think the pc industry brought this on themselves. Wat of the smaller custom builder they focused so much on gaming big megatron design like cases with all the talk of FPS is every thing. My only prayer is that asus, msi gigabyte should stand up aganist apple and start releasing sexier designs, unless I fear even adobe is not safe cos most editors would gradually drfit back to FCPX sad wen inferior products triumphs a superior one. Pls drop ur thoughts also ur opnions as editors in your location the general trend. I hate to be locked in a garden where I am told this is what I need. I love choices.

The 2 biggest problems with the new Mac Pro are the complete reliance on Thunderbolt for expansion and the Proprietary GPU modules. What happens when those Fire Pro cards are EOL and new GPU's are available. Will Apple go to any of the GPU manufacturers and get newer modules manufactured. Considering the applications that are moving to GPU processing, that was really a very bad idea simply because of the Minimum order quantity Apple will have to make to run another module. Apple will not be able to pull from the general video card supply which means they will be solely responsible for any production numbers required to manufacture to begin with. I personally expect this to be a major limitation as time goes on.
The complete reliance on Thunderbolt for expansion really was bad idea and not ready for prime time. TB2 has the total bandwidth of a PCI-E Gen 2 5x. That is the entire pipe available to pump any video output data, high performance storage, I/O devices, and any number of devices available as time goes on especially video cards. Those trying to GPU process through that pipe are going to find that latency is way to much a problem to get that done. If Lightpeak was out and had the bandwidth of PCi-E Gen 2 or Gen 3 16X then I would say great. There is just to small a pipe and to much device moderation at the TB controller to do this now. The major problem that will develop from this later is when Lightpeak is out for the PC and devices start moving there. Where will Apple be with the Mac Pro when it's entire expansion is legacy in 1 to 2 years. As a final note Thunderbolt 2 is just Thunderbolt 1 with 1 bidirectional channel in stead of 2 unidirectional. This is not a major improvement over the original.
The final consideration though not a major problem yet is the limit to 6 Core Xeons. This is likely due to the heat the 8 Core Xeons generate combined with a centralized cooling design. One of the major reasons to get a Dual Xeon is the 8 Core CPU options. Without that then there really is far less reason to get a Dual Xeon over a single 6 core and eventually 8 core workstation. This is a sacrifice that will reveal more later than now.
Considering the Mac Pro is meant to be the flagship platform for Apple's Pro market, there are really way to many limitations on this one to compete with the PC equivalents. There is only so much OSX will add to any system.

What are your thoughts on the new Mavericks upgrade?

I currently have Snow Leopard - just upgraded to that in the not so recent pass because needed to do that in order to be able to view photos with my new Canon camera. I did upgrade to the iTunes 11.0.1 when I saw the flashing popup list it as a software upgrade, even though all I use it for is to convert songs from Garage band to aiff files and to import podcasts from the internet. Thought I would need it possibly in the future. As long as it didn't mess me up with the above, I was okay with it. However, I did not like having to relearn how to handle playlists. As you can see I operate on what you probably would call an elementary, basic level and don't like things that would some how "mess up" what I have finally gotten used to. Is Mavericks going to be like Windows upgraded OS systems which always seem to drop support for older software it previously supported? I had hoped that going to Apple from Windows would save me from that for longer periods of time.
An additional problem I have just encountered is that suddenly I can no longer access my bank account online. Was told that the possible reason for this was that Apple has not kept up with upgrading its security, and, therefore, the bank would not consider it safe anymore. Thoughts?????? [I finally was able to work around this issue by downloading Firefox and using that successfully.]
Would appreciate any comments.

you said it brother !!!
This ***** big time...
what was more natural that look for music with cover flow, the same way you look for LP in a store or CD at home. Steve Jobs shown that in a presentation !!!! IF I RECALL.
DOES THE NEW CEO USES APPLE PRODUCTS !!!
Steve will not be pleased with this monstrosity.

I´ve bought the new IPad3, what a disappointment the 3G does not work, no Internet available, APPLE what are you doing for the all the people in Germany who bought the new IPad3? I´m still an Apple fan, all my products are from Apple but I need a solution

I have been waiting since months for the new IPad4G 64 Gbt. ON recommendation of Apple Support I have changed my IPad 4G last week in the hope that something was wrong with the firts one I bought.
The one I have now has the same problems. WiFi is working however 4G not at all. Apple what can I do? What are you doing for the thausands of German Apple fans who have bought a IPad4G and can not use it. We need a solution NOW. I´m working with this tool and need to be able to rely on it.
Thanks for a feed back.

It would be advisable for Apple to react officially on it. € 799, - for something that doesn´t function is no fun :-((
Isn't replacing your iPad Apple "officially" acting on it?

Just downloaded Firefox 4. Running Windows XP. Some of the new features are mising such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. The look is almost like Firefox 3. Why is this happening?

Hi. I just downloaded Firefox 4. Some of the new features are missing such as the new "Firefox Button" and the new location for the bookmarks button. It almost looks just like Firefox 3. I am using Windows XP on this desktop computer. On my laptop, running Windows Vista, Firefox 4 has all the updates advertised. Why is this happening? How do I fix?
Thanks

Thanks so much!

What model HD are they putting in the new Mac Pro's?

What model hard drives are they putting in the new Mac Pro's? I need to purchase a second drive in anticipation of a 2.8 I'm ordering and I want to get the same brand and model.

Mine came with the Seagate ST3320820AS_P; however, WDs are also in the mix. And don't forget that the BTO options allow increasing drive size; those may be different makes as well.

Bottom line is that if it's important that they match, wait 'till you can open the box and know for sure.

What is going on with the new update? It's a nightmare, poor wifi, facetime disconnects, maps are horrendous..are we guinea pigs and not product users anymore?

Yes, but they had to get the iPhone 5 into the channel, and iOS 6.notReadyYet was all they had.

Is the multi shoots feature for the new iso 7 camera supports iphone 5 or just the 5S

The 10 fps burst mode will only be available on the iPhone 5s. I believe all of the other features for sharpening photos from multiple shots are iPhone 5s only as well.

NVIDA OpenGL feature for the new Macs availability

I want to get a Mac with NVIDIA for the OpenGL feature, but the new ones are GT 640, 650, GTX 660, and 675 and none are on the list of NVIDIAs for Apple. I realize the list isn't up to date and was wondering if they'll be added anytime soon if not already. Thanks

You can always hack the raytracer_supported_cards.txt file - on your own head, of course. Beyond that I wouldn't let my buying decision be driven by a half-baked feature like the Raytrace 3D. Seriously. That stuff is gonna change again in CS7 no doubt (hopefully for the better) and locking yourself into a specific hardware just to be compatible now may then prove disadvantageous (though arguably those nVidia cards will still somehow be put to use then). Honest, straight up answer: Buy whatever you need, learn a serious program on the side and/or invest some money in some 3D-ish plug-ins should the raytrace stuff not work on your hardware or you generalyl end up frustrated because it's so limited.

If the files are already there, they'll never be overwritten when you visit a
new site, would they ? That's how the cache works :-)

What do you think of the new creative cloud cc that was just released?

What do you think of the new creative cloud cc that was just released? I'm using it now and I think it's great. It's cs6 on stereroids lol More new features that people who fully paid for cs6 should of had.
I do wish the cloud standard price changes to 29.99 a month for all users so everyone gets a chance to enjoy the cloud.

I just downloaded CC, and still have all my CS6 apps as backup. Bridge CC (64-bit) is showing the same unacceptable performance I had with CS6 version. Can't believe that Adobe is so inept. I did fix the CS6 version but I forget how I did it. CS6 version of Bridge is near instantaneous. And it's not a matter of building the cache. It takes the program forever just to respond to a simple mouse click in the menu bar.
Photoshop CC crashed my machine, whereas CS6 version runs perfectly. Afraid to download any further apps.
Adobe 11 failed to install because it think's prior version of the that program is still on the computer. I never installed Acrobat 11 on this machine. Just Acrobat 10, which also got the stupid 30-day "refuse to start" bug, so I'm using Acrobat 9.5 which works flawlessly. Funny how the newer the code from Adobe, the worse it gets for its customers.
I'm using Win 7 Pro, 16GB mem, Nvidia 2800M video card on Thinkpad with i7-920XM chip.

What do you think about the new and improved SiriusDecisions Waterfall?

SiriusDecisions launched their new and improved Demand Waterfall this week at their Summit in Scottsdale, Arizona. For those of you who haven't seen it yet, I have attached the PDF for your viewing pleasure. What do you think? What's strong? What's weak? Do you agree with Tony Jaros that teleprospecting is a required step in the Marketing Qualification process?

It makes a lot of sense from our perspective. Our sales organization has always generated the bulk of our leads, so it makes sense to account for them and to build programs to support them. It was a great conference - my first SiriusDecisions Summit. I came away both energized and overwhelmed.
Our Inside Sales team qualifies almost all inquiries via telephone, so it makes sense to me that "teleprospecting" is a required step. The only exceptions are sales-generated leads, so the waterfall reflects that perfectly.
What I like most about the new waterfall is that it creates a clear structure for us to focus more on developing lead nurturing and pipeline acceleration programs specifically for teleprospecting- and sales-generated leads. I'll admit that we've neglected this (simply including those contacts in our marketing-generated lead nurtures). Furthermore, it reinforces the need to tailor nurtures to the buyer's stage in the buying process. We tend to move all of our contacts through the same campaign and nurture activities as if they're progressing together, which obviously isn't the case.
I'd be interested in learning how other Eloqua users are getting data back from their CRM on a contact who has turned into a qualified lead. How do you find this information out? Do you then put them through an individual nurture that is focused on accelerating the deal?
