new OSX, how about getting some basics straight?


here things wish mountain lion include, resolve, put right....

  1. imac (specifically portable ones) aware when there no network, hence avoiding indefinite latency web services (particularly visible in mail, calendars, etc)
  2. progress bars used wherever needed, user gets cue of happening (ie backup of address book has no progress bar)
  3. "re-open last" windows option put sense. allows absurdities such re-opening file has been placed in trash can.
  4. when doing zip of many files, plausibility check of available diskspace made before doing "preparing" tasks. there high propbability "preparing" useful.
  5. users can opt out in single preference "on mac" calendars , address books. (i mean cloud heck local device specific calendar for?)
  6. specific settings cross-application carried forwards. if change download folder, applications use download folder follow suit
  7. when there multiple paths between 2 macs transfer file (ie wifi, cable, etc.), failure of active connection should not interrupt file transfer switches alternate connection
  8. timemachine alerts when disk backing failing. if disk utility can show failing disk in red, timemachine should use information
  9. print drivers available machines easy download, without need have printer connected internet (or mac conected internet).
  10. notion of users apple id clarified. have @me.com, @icloud.com, personal email, etc. etc. apple id. want osx merge these me 1.
  11. decision made on whether applications functions in edit menu or in cogwheel menu (such delete rss feed (mail cogwheel menu), delete group (calendar edit menu)). throughout osx applications.
  12. progress of synchronization can viewed in osx, in mail (cmd-0) should case in iphoto, calendar, address book, etc..
  13. ordering features files can set preferred setting folders
 

definitely see this, hate "on mac" in particular sync using exchange , icloud.
