Talk:Mac OS X Public Beta/@comment-117.211.154.122-20151228100200

I want to bring back the ability to view the icons in windows by date modified, but without scrolling horizontally stay locked.

I want to have the freedom to paint the entire name of the color of my preference file, as it was before, but better. Did not like the color cookies next to the file names, because the visualization is bad.

I want the column "date modified" and "kind" look more to the left, because usually it is hidden, forcing us to slide the screen to locate them.

I want a search system more perfect, where we can better control the filters and search.

I want more control on the display of icons, with more possibility of customization of the windows.

I want it to be as easy to connect an iPhone or iPad to the iMac, as it is to connect an Android gadgets.

Hardcore Macintosh fans could therefore get a taste of the upcoming operating system before its final release. It was named Kodiak internally by Apple. The name was not publicly used.The Public Beta was the first time people could use the Aqua interface. Virtually everything was new in the operating system: fonts, the Dock, even the menu bar (with an Apple logo at the centre, which was later repositioned). The icons exploded in size, and new OS eye candy was all the rage.

As it was a public beta, this version was not without its bugs and inconveniences. Apple used user feedback to improve upon the OS, so that a vastly improved Golden Master version of Mac OS X was ready for release by March 2001.

The Public Beta version came with a price tag, and a time limit (set for May 15, 2001). In spite of all these shortcomings, it was still welcomed by the Mac community, with people eager to test drive the new OS.

The Public Beta was superseded by Mac OS X 10.0.0, the first final release of Mac OS X.

PackagingEdit
Mac OS X Public Beta -- inside the packaging The packaging for Mac OS X Public Beta was relatively simple: documentation plus a CD in a compact box. The outside had a huge, aqua X greeting the purchaser.

Inside, on the left, were documentation and support files which were tucked behind a short greeting from Apple:
 * Dear Mac OS X Beta Tester,
 * You are holding the future of the Macintosh in your hands.
 * Mac OS X is a new, super-modern operating system that will usher in a new era for the Macintosh. New from the ground up, Mac OS X is specifically designed for the Internet and includes advanced technologies for incredible improvements in stability and performance. It also features a stunning new interface called Aqua.
 * This Public Beta will give you a chance to start using Mac OS X and give us a chance to hear what you think. Let us know by visiting our website at www.apple.com/macosx.
 * Thanks for your help and for being a part of Apple history. We couldn't do it without you.

(Note: The wiki links are not present in the original message.)

On the right was the Mac OS X Public Beta CD, which lay half-immersed in the packaging.

2. Use PathFinderinstead of the default Finder

3. This is all resizeable; you can drag them around.

4. https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man1/mdfind.1.html -- while the flags are command-line only, the MD search terms work just fine in the GUI searches.

5. Huh? How much more control do you want? You can set a background picture, set your icon scales to whatever you want, place your icons wherever you want. You can add/remove whatever decorations you want from around the windows, including the bar across the top (which I've used since NeXTStep days).

6. Start iTunes. Plug cable into iMac. Plug cable into iOS device. Done. If you want more, install http://dl.i-funbox.com May 14, 2014 by Adespoton
