OS X Mavericks |OT| ... it's not called Liger :(
- Thread starter Flek

Of the features that Apple highlights on the website, tabbed Finder is the only one I care about at all. I'm just hoping for better stability and performance than I got with ML.
So far it seems a little quicker performance wise. It's been up and down with each OS, but I still think Snow Leopard proved quickest on my machine. But then again it could just be me, I'm semi-convinced my mid-2010 Pro is a dud given all the repairs its needed over the years.

Anyone have experience of running this on a mid-2008 MBP? I'm still on Snow Leopard, and I'm not willing to upgrade if anything is going to get slower.
Well for MAME you could use SDLMAME

It's terminal based but it's easy enough to make an alias command to launch it.
I clicked on that but there's only stuff like email, twitter, Facebook, iMessage and AirDrop. =/

I don't know how grey the area is on torrenting free software that's still needed to be purchased.
Problem is, in order to install it, you NEED to have an Apple ID that has Mavericks attached to it as being purchased. So you can't just torrent it and have it work unless you have a friend who has purchased it and know his/her login information.
Call Apple? Where are you?
OK, for anyone (like me) trying to upgrade from the 1st GM and the App Store not letting them download, here's your solution:

The easiest way to edit that file is to open Terminal, type "sudo nano ", and drag that file into the term window.

Are you logged into the same iCloud account on your Mac and iPhone? When I click on the share menu, my iPhone and iPad are on the list as well as Facebook, Twitter, etc.

There are a bunch of different ways to make an Apple ID, and only one of them lets you in without a CC. I just did it in September for someone at work, but I don't remember whether it was via Apple's website, iTunes, App Store, iPhone, etc. I'm outside the US as well.
I don't believe that's true, at least it wasn't for Lion and Mountain Lion. Haven't updated to Mavericks yet but will try if it's really needed.

Dat battery time!
Its my new viagra...
How!?
Where do you get a trial?
I think there is a skip option when making an account in iTunes.
PM me if you have trouble. I'm in Canada too. Might be able to help you out.

Maybe I'm missing the obvious but how do I send the info to my phone....
Starting with the obvious - you're upgraded to iOS 7 correct?

No...haha. That solves that then!
http://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/1p1d7x/how_to_make_the_iwork_suite_a_free_download_for/
That's where I found it along with the steps. It's pretty simple really.
Thanks! I actually got it to work but they are not making it easy:
- Connected through a VPN into the US
- Click on a free app in itunes,
- THEN enter details of an US account with a fake US adress
- Now you are allowed to download free software
WHEW! Exited to test the new OS, the Totalfinder dev. must be crying
Yup, this worked for me as well. Before installing, make sure you also go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy and set it to "Allow apps downloaded from: Anywhere".

It's yucky. I miss a living MacMAME. MAME OSX died too.

Has anyone else ended up with two versions of Garageband? I wonder why the new iLife version is being released as a separate app.
I use the mamepgui frontend to use SDLMAME instead of command line. Not perfect but it works, and you're not waiting years for new builds.

Nice link. I have had iWork 09 and the updates showed in app store.
Now if someone figures out how to freely upgrade iLife stuff like iPhoto on my old machine...

We discussed it last page. Seems it's just Garageband because they've gone with free with IAP/DLC instead of $5/10 like it was.

Ah, okay. Thought I ran into a bug and my OCD went into overdrive. Already had to redo my entire installation since a clean install erased my Recovery Partition.

Is there something better than flip4mac that plays .wmv files? It's the only app that says it's compatible.
Edit: Also, is the iWork update free for people who had the previous version? I bought it when I bought my mac in '09 and it just says update in the app store so I just want to make sure it's not upgrading to some bastardized trial version that I have to find my disk to reinstall iWork with later on or something.

Well I jumped the gun. So far so good on my Macbook Air summer 2012. 4GB of RAM.
The transitions and overall speed of the OS is snappier, Finder tabs are awesome, and that SMOOTH animation when doing the gesture for launchpad.
Battery hasn't been tested since I literally just installed it 10 min ago. Another thing I'm hoping for is more apps being optimized for 10.9. (I know that comes with time)

*sigh* The drivers for my M-Audio Transit are showing their age on 10.9. Interfacing with it is really laggy now.
Have you updated recently?

I don't remember? Probably not, I haven't gone out of my way if it hasn't alerted me. I'll try later.
Edit: Updates fine.

Hmm. Thanks I'll check it out.

Why would they remove the ability to synchronise with Safari on Windows? Chance they're preparing a new Safari release for Windows that has iCloud support built in?
