MAC OSX 26 upgrade

2025-Sep-15

  • Big download and long delay getting it; aborted once and restart seemed to pick up where it left off
  • Multi-hour estimate; left it running overnight

  • wipes out Marsedit 5.3.7 blog settings … …
    … … no heads up from anyone.  Took a few minutes to repair.
  • mac osx 26 lost share action for gmail … …
    … … no obvious fix

2025-Sep-16 1150

  • Firefox 142.0.1 (aarch64) appears to send every link thru google … … 
    … … can’t seem to capture or reproduce?
    … … seems that clicking a link in email gets passed to Google search engine?
    … … Firefox 143.0 (aarch64) updated on restarting Firefox?

2025-Sep-19 1000

  • All tasks when tabbed out now become minimized.  Giant PIA!  Initial inet search shows no fix.
  • Firefox 143 appear to route all new links thru google some how for some reason.
  • In Finder 26 the share selection with a file selected does n’t have “mail” which should have been Firefox Gmail.

An upgrade to Mojave 10.14 … …

MACOSX: Where’s the date?

Tuesday, December 14, 2010

I think that Apple’s ‘reputation’ is unwarranted. Here’s where I start to pull at some threads in the King’s ‘garment’.

OK, I wanted to know what today’s date was.

The screen tells me that it’s Sunday at 1620. But what’s the date? So I go to the ‘System Preferences’ screen and sure enough I’ve checked ‘Show date and time’.

201012121619.jpg

I see day and time, but no date.

An obvious oversight.

But, if this is obviously flubbed, makes you wonder what else is screwed up?
