Facebook IS in the system already.

Go to /System/Library/SocialServices/

As you can see, there is a Facebook folder, and there is the sending sound, and everything.

Now a method to enable it.

  • Safari sometimes take ages to load a site. Seems it's waiting for a server response at first, then loads correctly.

This happens to me too, i thought it was just me, i am trying to keep apps to a minimum so trying to run Safari as my main browser.

Is that based on you trying the iOS 6 beta?

Yes, on both my iPad & iPhone. I've had several conversations that either never appear entirely, or only parts of the message appear on the other devices. I've been chalking it up to the fact that it is an issue with the beta.

the mail app does need to be running in order for it to sync and receive emails (obviously), you can close the window though as it will continue to run in the background (like most other mac apps when you only close the window)

Damn, they did something with a dock, because sometimes it without my will turn on from autohide :< I put it alwayes in autohide mode and never (since leopard) had got any problem - now from time to time dock made himself visible "just because". And I have to right-click and choose "autohide" again -.-. Damn!

Download the Facebook Developer Preview like I did. It?s 400KB, it?s only an enabler.

But it doesn?t really get me the notification banners I checked :(

The Facebook DP never worked properly for me, so I don't think I'll be installing that one again.

Really wish I either waited until they released an update or two, or did a clean install (for the first time ever, again, never had any issues prior with just updating).

I am having a multitude of issues, some of the larger ones being...

Macbook has restarted itself twice now with an error report. I did not really bother trying to make sense of it.

I can no longer see my NAS device (Synology DS211j) under Shared, and can only connect to it via IP, typing it's host name no longer works. I also used to automatically mount it on startup, no such luck anymore. Fails to find server even though it is there. Synology does not have any updates yet for the DSM software.

Speaking of Network issues, it drops connection to my WiFi network sporadically.

Oh yeah, AirPlay no longer sees my Apple TV as a device, even if I restart it, restart the computer, etc. I already did the AirPlay mirroring on Day 01, so it once did work.

Network connected printer is also hit or miss, even with latest software from HP.

So yeah, running theme here is everything network related seems really screwed up.

I am also experiencing intermittent freezing just doing normal things as well.

Going to wait and see if the first major update does anything, but I am not holding my breath. Looks like I need to do a clean install sooner than later.

Why can't I share videos to YouTube?

I don't use Vimeo.

Cause Apple is anti Google now. Bet they eventually remove it from iLife

However, Vimeo does have better video quality. Only gripe is you can upload only 1HD video per week, others will get downscaled. (until you become a premium member)

Thats fail! Plus Vimeo has a tiny user base compared with YT.

Just admit it CPressland; you're secretly running OS X 10.9, refusing to tell and provide us with screen shots. Man you're lame!

:p

I managed to install XCode 4.4 on top of my old XCode 4.4 (that was downloaded from the member center)

I did the upgrade over my Lion install and so far haven't had any breaking issues. Would like to start seeing some of my iOS apps coming to OS X (MLB At Bat, ESPN, Facebook, etc) because at this point notifications seem pointless. Almost everything is done through the web.

Websites can be programmed to send notifications to Notification Center through Safari. Facebook notifications will be added to OS X Mountain Lion this fall.

I find (Facebook, Jabber, IRC, Twitter)+Growl enough to keep me up to date on everything. I may not upgrade. The only appealing addition is the Reminders app.

This is what I've ended up doing.

Oh no! You've figured me out! Apple will think I've broken the pact of secrecy now?!

Google Chrome just got updated with native Retina Support - but the framerates when scrolling on Web Pages still sucks, hopefully this is something that can be improved.

Has to be Safari or can Chrome be programmed as well?
