Most likely will have a lot of bugs like wifi bug again when they finally
release it in the fall. Just like el capitan did. Definitely not gonna make
mistake this time and upgrade.
for a while prolly. I’d upgrade once they’re all ironed out.
Same here bro
14:20 Performance reduction! – It’s MacBook 12 2016 m5 and a simple movie
playback with QT Player made it that hot?
Ah, ok. It’s screen capture in hi res. Thank god m5 isn’t THAT slow after
all.
I have a m3 on my 2016 macbook and hey its not really that bad
Where can I get notifications about performance like that?
Also would like to know. It can be helpful
I think it’s an automatic thing in the macOS Sierra beta. If not, it’s
probably buried deep within settings.
Are there essential improvements to Photos? It currently lacks so many
basics features and is so unintuitive, I switched back to Aperture.
Finally someone who agrees with my opinion haha. I actually left any kind
of photo app, aside. I prefer photos like they are on Windows. Just, there,
in ordinary folders…
The real question is why did you ever leave Aperture? 🙂
Yeah, Photos is pretty lame :/
There’s also a Photos app on Windows though. But it’s also in addition to
the folders, so I see your point.
+tiestofalljays I’m acutally back to Aperture now, it feels so good.
Universal Clipboard doesn’t work here… It just doesn’t transmit the new
copied text to the other device… iOS 10, macOS Sierra, Bluetooth enabled,
same wLan Network.
Maybe you have diferent iCloud accounts
The universal clipboard sounds really awesome, except for when you have
copied an important item for multiple paste needs in Excel, but while still
editing the document on your Mac, you copy a funny text from your iPhone.
Now all of a sudden you start pasting funny text into your spreadsheet
instead of the important information you wanted to keep in your clipboard.
I think that apple should include a dropdown menu for the paste option
saying: paste from (iPhone name), paste from (iPad name), paste from (iMac
name) etc. That would solve that problem.
+ZSB 410 That is a brilliant idea.
+ZSB 410 I’d normally disable that kind of feature but if your idea came
true I’d enable it.
“Odor” = Older
“Foe-ders”= Folders
Hold the Door = Hodor
“Minibar” = Menubar
Older, not odor.
Folder, not foder.
mordor
condor
Hold the door
How is ur os so laggy? Or is it just when u are recording the screen?
+BIG2hats far from it 😀
+KpKomedy well yea, but nowadays these screen recordings shouldn’t even be
noticed in terms of lagg etc, especially when recording just desktop/text
editing documents etc.
+Luka Cadež It’s not really about the power of the computer, people focus
too much on power but if the program you are using is not optimised then
the power is irrelevant.
it’s a MacBook (the new one)- i guess recording at that resolution is too
much for the processor to handle. every single recent mac i’ve seen except
for this one handles it like a champ though.
It may very well be recording lag. However, if it is the OS itself, it is
justified considering this is the first of many beta versions to come
before final release, and things such as lag and crashes are normal and
should be taken with a grain of salt. However, from my experience, using
the betas for iOS 10 and watchOS 3, things are already pretty stable and
smooth for the most part — no serious lag aside from just a bit in the
interface animations, no significant battery drain, and few memory-leak
reboots. While I am not using this beta and cannot confirm it, I would
imagine based on the aforementioned alone that macOS Sierra reflects a
similar degree of quality given its current (as of this comment) beta 1
status.
Which compels me to believe that it is still, more likely, a result of the
screen being recorded.
El Capitan is so slow on my Mac I expect this will be even slower
An ssd really makes performance so much faster. If you have an old 5400 rpm
drive that may be the bottleneck.
That is absolutely the bottleneck. My 2011 runs 10 Programs at once without
any problems. The current Macbook Pro scores like 10% better than mine in
benchmarks, CPU Power hasn’t really improved a lot in Notebooks since 2011.
Is it difficult to fit a SSD
Not really, just take of the bottom cover, take out two more screws and you
can fit the SSD. Good opportunity to clean the heatsinks 😉
Did you switched to ssd yet? Has it been worth it?
I won’t upgrade (MBP 2015). There is not one single feature that I need,
and I’m worried about my speed.
I also have a 2015 MBP. This is just the first dev beta, so hopefully the
major bugs will be ironed out by release time or by the .2 update.
Bugs usually take time to iron out. Once fixed it should be good.

When you delete messages in Mac do they also delete on iPhone? I hope so.
they dont
+Marshall Smith thanks. That really stinks considering the messages
integration is something I use the most.
+Ron S It’s always seemed to me messages in iOS and OS X are slightly
separate. Your messages are cached locally instead of in the cloud so you
can access them at a later date. That’s Apple’s thinking at least.
Is there at least an option in MacOS to delete all messages now? I always
have to delete them one at a time since they build up over time.
I don’t think theres a command to delete all unless you find the folder in
your Library folder and delete it but you can always press command+delete
to delete individual conversations. it shouldn’t take that long to delete
all by going through them and deleting the ones you don’t want.
Would i be upgrade from Yosemite to Sierra bypassing el captian? ?
Yes
why not a Hey Siri on the mac?
It’s not needed, since you’ll be sitting infront your Mac anyhow
you can say the same thing about the iPhone but it’s still a feature. I’d
use it on the mac (a lot)
It’s a beta
It took 10 years for Apple to allow moving menubar icons. Company of the
year 2016.
better yet, it took them this long to allow movement of documents between
Windows.
Wait I’ve been doing it for years without problems? You just drag the icon
to the edge of a screen
+Tommy Scott For third party apps.
+omar717 I know third party apps icon couldn’t move but the documents
definitely can. Did i get something wrong? I was replying to Man Utd Legend
but picture on picture only works with safari I guess
How about ability to exclude video when importing into Photos? Why do we
need to load our multi gigabyte 4k videos from our iPhones into our Photos
library 🙁 and don’t get me started about having to sync these massive
files with iCould photo library too.
Stop importing videos to Photos then… Keep them in a folder instead
being able to move icons on the menu bar is amazing? :-/ Really?…. ok
That is so sad. I like Macs but fanatics like this guy make me fucking
cringe and want to switch back to Windows. Or Ubuntu.
I just need a fekin computer . Windows .. mac.. Linux as long as the damn
thing works. All computers have their problems…. Here today gone
tomorrow. Cheers!
+Firebrand Onfire I was referring to the reviewer not you my man. His
excitement over the magical way icons move was second to none in cringe
fest.
is is just more or every time my computer locks when i unlock it i can’t
click. anyone know a fix to that?
What are you running this on? It’s not very fast.
I know it’s a beta but still.
Maybe it’s because you’re recording?
Is there a voice for Siri?
