works for me – though I tend to manually set the visualiser in iTunes if I'm leaving my iMac for extended periods.
Just becuase you don't like something doesn't make it a bug. Option click to get the old maximize function.
It is a feature... Just double click in any toolbar and THAT will maximize the window... LOVE the new green feature.... Fullscreen rocks !
It tells you people who dislike it post about it. Doesn't tell you how representative this data is, its significance or cause.
With this speed
And it still takes me over 5 hours? must not be serious.
I hate you
However I can't complain too much

Man looking at some of your guys internet speed makes me sad. You have faster upload than I have download and I live in the UK. Time to call my provider
Haha just said the same. Why is UK so behind
No they need an award. Who in their mind wants a maximise button on the left and a full screen button on he right. The guy who decided that should be fired.
Want to maximise just double click the status bar. It's not rocket science
That's all good and well except it doesn't actually work everywhere. Chrome interprets this as "fit to content".
Chrome? What is that ? Haha
Yeah than its alt and green button
What's fit To content exactly in chrome?
Thank you, but this does not help. I already tried it. Finder always gets stuck and I am not sure why. Restarting Finder does not solve the problem, it's just an annoying loop. I guess I just have to wait for the full release.
i downloaded it once than it told me to restart mac , than i go app store i have to download it again wtf
Apple today released the seventh beta of OS X 10.11 El Capitan to developers for testing purposes, two weeks after releasing the sixth El Capitan beta and more than two months after unveiling the new operating system at its 2015 Worldwide Developers Conference. Apple has also re-seeded the fifth public beta of OS X El Capitan to public beta testers after accidentally releasing it yesterday and then pulling it.
The update, build number 15A263e for developers and 15A262e for public beta testers, is available through the software update mechanism in the Mac App Store and through the Apple Developer Center.
In recent weeks, Apple has been pushing rapid updates for OS X El Capitan, all of which have focused on under-the-hood performance improvements and bug fixes to optimize the operating system ahead of its public debut. Few design changes have been made in the most recent betas, but beta 7 includes some minor tweaks like a new Safari welcome screen, a new color for the El Capitan logo in "About This Mac," and a setting to disable the "Shake mouse pointer to locate" feature.
OS X El Capitan is designed to improve features introduced with OS X Yosemite, focusing on performance and user experience. A number of apps and processes on the Mac are much faster with El Capitan, and the introduction of Metal for Mac brings system-level graphics rendering that's 40 percent more efficient.
As for user experience, El Capitan includes a new systemwide San Francisco font, a revamped Mission Control feature, a new Split View feature for using two full-screen apps at once, deeper functionality for Spotlight, and several new features for Safari, including Pinned Sites for housing frequently visited websites and a universal mute button that quiets all tabs.
OS X 10.11 El Capitan is available to both registered developers and public beta testers. Apple plans to release El Capitan to the public in the fall.

Same behaviour.
For instance when viewing Macforums when I double-click the title bar or Alt+green button it zooms out to exactly the width of the page, it doesn't zoom out to the width of the screen. It's not a massive problem as I hardly ever use maximize in any of its incarnations, just pointing out that the solution everybody is sharing doesn't work with all applications.
Him never seen an app before that does that, must be a chrome thing than.
So does the same happen when you click alt and green button?
Yup. Exactly the same. In Photoshop double-clicking the title bar does nothing, but Alt+green works. iTunes doesn't really have a title bar but double-clicking what it has does nothing, Alt+green works. In Adium, where full screen would make no sense but I was curious, Alt+green switches between "small" and "very small". Double-clicking title bar switches between "normal" and "small", the same with green button without Alt. In Cubase both options give a full screen, same with Spotify and Firefox.
So basically it's all inconsistent. Again, I don't find this a massive problem, it's just that the solution doesn't always work.
The zoom button in Mac OS (and this predates OS X, even) has always been inconsistent in terms of the results you get.
Personally if I could wish for something it would be for application and Finder windows to always be the same size when I open them as when I closed them...
