OS X 10.8.3 Build 12D78 Seeded to Developers

Where at it, they should also remap copy and paste keys to Ctrl+C and Ctrl+P respectively. It is so confusing to switch between standard and non-standard key-combinations when working on different platforms.

I and millions of others would be livid if they did this. I remap my Windows machine to match the Apple key-combinations because I'm used to them, and I prefer them. You should find a program to do mimic your preferred key-combinations on your Mac if you don't like them.

And FYI, Windows key-combinations ≠ "standard" key-combinations. They're no more standard than Mac or Linux key-combinations.

If your rMBP is not lagging, great for you. But the fact is that this lag DOES exist for many users. Even Apple admits it. When I submitted a bug about the jerkiness is scrolling web sites like TheVerge.com, I was told this was a known bug and had already been dealt with, to some extent, in the latest Webkit nightlies.


I have no idea what you imagine you are achieving by telling people their computers do not behave the way they see them behave every day. This is the worst sort of Apple zealotism, the sort of thing that makes outsiders mock Apple users as absolutely deranged and detached from reality.

Don't get me wrong, it's no where near what I believe it should be for a $2,200 'powerhouse' of a machine. That insane glitching in the video I posted is largely due to the screen recording, but still! What the heck? I mean why does recording the screen cause such massive lag. I still have issues with safari scrolling, and have WebKit installed to alleviate it. My biggest gripe with 10.8.2 was the audio glitching, which in my testing, has been fixed.

Well, how about adding file management as one focus area? Apple, when will you finally make Finder application usable? Is that difficult to add an option to sort files where folders appear on the top (or better - make this the default)? How about adding multiple tabs?

just use XtraFinder.
Tabs, auto-adjust columns after name length & best of all: cut & paste

couldn't believe that cmd+x didn't work when I switched from PC/windows about 8 months ago to mac hehe

Same, I had the same experience and I use XtraFinder too.

I was super disappointed to find that, after 25 years of using windows, OSX out of the box actually lacks way more functionality than windows does, in all areas! It's silly... I know there is a mill apps to fix all sort of things.. but seriously? sometimes (really often) its not THAT bad an idea to borrow and do what the competitors do.... there is usually a reason why they do it. Apple's philosophy seems more about what they dont want to do.

Another simple thing I had to fix with an app, maximize window..... just saying

Anyway... Xtrafinder is a must have.

remap to ctrl+C and ctrl+P?? As far as I know no OS use this kind of key-combination

ctrl (cmd) + P is for printing...

About the cut&paste OSX has this also... but the idea is different... you first make a copy (cmd+c) than you paste removing the original file (cmd+option+v)

Just like slicecom told lukasz74nj, remapping the key commands would upset many Mac users, since they are used to pressing the command key instead of the control key. I'm used to pressing both, but there are many users who are not.

You just know the minute we least expect it the public release will drop

I agree & also Cmd is in a better location than Ctrl for copy-paste-delete.

i am sorry to ruin this for ya, but 12D78 did not fix the slow shutdown bug on my rMBP.

Well, that's too bad - sorry about that. Guess I'll be sticking with Lion for the foreseeable future.

Right before Samsung Galaxy 4 announcement.

Its gonna take away all the hype.

You guys are hilariously insufferable.

If Apple rushes out the update then you moan that QC is down and no one tested the software before release. If Apple takes its time prepping an update then you cry that its taking too long, they suck, and only care about iOS.

I mean seriously...

Absolutely right. For me, let them take their time and do it right. But, then we'll HAVE to get a stable and (almost) bug free 10.8.3, I suppose....

DUDE!!! This has made my day! The Cut and Paste option alone is simply awesome! This was something I was very used to do in Windows a few years ago and I always thought it was stupid that I couldn't do it in OSX...well technically, I still can't, at least out of the box, but with this app now I can! And the tabs are awesome!

THANK YOU for posting this!

You can "cut" on Macs without any extra software. First copy the file (Cmd+c) then "Move item here" (Cmd+Alt+v).

 

[epelba01]

Apple, I'm counting on you to release 10.8.3 today.

 

[RedGeminiPA]

For those moaning about Cut, Copy & Paste, just get PopClip. As soon as you highlight anything, it pops up with all the options you could ever want. You don't even have to touch your keyboard.

Then, when you click into any input field, it pops up again with options to Paste etc. It's a pretty sweet little utility.

Apple, I'm counting on you to release 10.8.3 today.

most unlikely to see it this week

maybe next tuesday release or another beta

 

[lukasz74nj]

just use XtraFinder.

Thanks, I will try that. Nevertheless, Apple should add these features to such essential program.

 

[coder12]

Why thank you! We're kind of insane with BBQ down here, glad you liked it!

And yep, I'm the only Bearkat I know of on this forum. I also don't see many Bison outside of the FCS forum I go to, so I thought I'd give you a shoutout based on your signature. I hope y'all have another awesome season next year! (Unless and until of course, there's a round 3...)

Same to you! Maybe we'll see you down in Frisco again next year!

It is possible to change (or even add) a menu command in an app by entering the name of the command (how it reads in the menu) and then putting the desired keyboard combo in.

System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Application Shortcuts.

Now I feel stupid for not knowing that. But anyways, I'll stick with the app, those tabs are great!

Yet, thank you for sharing that, definitely a great think to know as well!

Hopefully it will be released before then, but I have a bad feeling that it won't be.
