fotoDogue Posted October 24, 2013 Author Share Posted October 24, 2013 Much to my surprise, when I booted up VueScan today, I discovered they already have a Mavericks update available.http://www.hamrick.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan_Andison Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 it's been running perfectly on my Macbook Air for the last 2-3 days.... last night also updated my iMac. No bugs and a definite performance improvement as well. Excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulstw Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Updated last night. LR5.2 works a treat. Everything just works, quicker too. If you liked the old style of calendars, notes and contacts, then that'll annoy you, as its all flat UI stuff now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gervais Montacute Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 My replacement gets here today and I think the first thing I'll do is update to Mavericks if it's not already come with it installed. Sounds good so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 If everyone else buys their iMac before me maybe the price will come down. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Bell Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Apple prices come down? Hahahahahahahahaha. Uhhhh no Allan. I was joking, hence the emoticons. Prices more likely to escallate before I buy. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gervais Montacute Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 Allan in all the years I've been using Apple products I've never seen them reduce the price year on year of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoDogue Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 Here in the US, if you have a little patience, you can often pick up a refurb for several hundred dollars less via the Apple Online Store. I just missed out on a Mac Mini that was priced $130 below the usual $800. They come with the same warranty. Only the packaging is different. Just scroll down the main page for the Refurbished and Clearance items. Sorry I have no idea if they offer refurbs in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 I've received an email from a major agency that if you upgrade,do NOT upgrade iMovie and stick with the old one. Problems in video with some agencies and Apple has remoed some important features possibly so they can sell a full version down the line with everything they removed. This only applies if you shoot video and edit in iMovie. L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoDogue Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 Everything seems good in terms of photo apps but I'm finding PhotoShelter takes over a minute to load using Safari. Anyone else on PhotoShelter experiencing this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floydian Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 From Mountain Lion to Mavericks, no problems with LR 5 and PS CS6. From a new Macbook Pro with Mavericks installed, no problems with installing both programs either. Good luck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Coombs Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Updated early this morning. Approximately 90 minutes from starting download to up and running. Everything working fine as far as I can see at the moment, primarily LR and PS. I can't see many of the new features being of much use to me, but looks to be a good system update anyway.

Gervais Montacute Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 User Interface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCat Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 What's "User Interface"? I already don't like what they did to the Address Book in Snow Leopard. They are trying to make everything look like it does on the iPhone. When I first got my Mac it really was very simple to use. Every new version complicates things.

Gervais Montacute Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I don't have an iPhone Paulette. I just guess that's what UI stands for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Hi Paulette, us "non - techies" must stick together. "User Interface" I think means things like keyboard, mouse? Could be wrong. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Hi Paulette, us "non - techies" must stick together. "User Interface" I think means things like keyboard, mouse? Could be wrong. Allan I think it's the stuff on the screen - what it looks and behaves like. I'm not techy either otherwise I could explain it better but I do know what it is believe it or not.

Gervais Montacute Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 That's right Pearl. That's exactly what it is. More often called a GUI (gooey) Graphics User Interface. It's everything you need to press or slide ect. EG. Lightroom. Everything you do around the actual image, and use to manipulate it, is the UI or GUI. I think.
