I like the Launchpad in Yosemite OS X 10.10 but it was kind of dismaying when I finished downloading Garage Band, Keynote, iPhoto, and iMovie from the App Store to see that it went to two pages. Found lots of good information on Apple Support, i.e. you drag one application icon onto another to create a new folder. These kinds of things seem to be easier to find with a search engine rather than the site search. So now I have the Launchpad organized into folders.
Had the first OS X upgrade yesterday. It took over an hour to download via DSL, but installed nicely and I’m at OS X 10.10.3 now.
I have been transferring photos from my Samsung SGH-S390G via Bluetooth better. Found that if I avoid the “accept all” option when sending files in batches the connection doesn’t hang.
Just out of curiosity, yesterday I timed how long it takes to boot the MacBook Air — around seven seconds! Solid state drives are amazing.
Took the new MacBook Air on its first outing yesterday. Was planning to meet a friend at the library in Kittanning (with WiFi) to do some genealogy research. Had a change of plans as there was a meeting scheduled for the room with genealogy materials when we were planning to get together. So, went to the Dairy Queen instead. Don’t need much of an excuse to go to the DQ.
A week ago this morning I took Atticus out and discovered this:
A thief had come out on Maundy Thursday evening in a rainstorm to “shop” our parking lot, took all four of the wheel covers from my Fiesta!
The act was captured on three of my landlord’s surveillance cameras. I supplied them to the State Police when I filed an incident report. The only empty flash drive I had was one I picked up at Staples two weeks ago for $3. The ones on sale were kind of interesting. Being an Angry Birds fan I chose a green piggie although I would have rather had one of the birds.
Occurred to me while waiting to see the officer that might not have been a good choice.
