Hi, Can someone explain this busy thing you guys keep getting? I rarely get it, except for this morning when my system was first starting. Other than that, Lion has been absolutely amazing, and I'd never even think of going back to SL. Also, report it to apple, perhaps there's an issue we don't know about, instead of saying that Lion isn't as good as sl. Just my 2 cents.

I've experemented a little, and I constantly get the busy thing under Lion, but it almost never happens under Snow Leopard, and I'm using the most recent web kit on both operating systems. With all this conversation going on lately, I've tried to put a little more time into working with lion, but so far, my opinion hasn't changed. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of David Eagle Sent: Friday, November 11, 2011 6:27 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Lion, a lemon? I don't understand, this Safari Busy thing is driving me insane. I"ve got a Mac Book Pro which I bought six months ago so it would seem strange that it's the machine. I'm going to try using Alex again as the voice and see if that helps.

I installed it on day 1 and haven't looked back since. I will probably get flamed for saying this, but i think it has to do with learning. After all, Lion had several new features and several modifications were made to the way we work, and of corse, it goes almost without saying that we have to rethink how we do things. I haven't had more busy signals than usual with Safari in Lion. The only issues i have had is a bug in the swedish nuance voices where certain letters aren't pronounced correctly, but i was aware of that bug already before i upgraded and wanted to try Lion out despite that, and i've found a workaround for the bug, so all is well there and besides, Apple are aware of that bug and they seem to have fixed it on the IOs side, so i have good hopes that they will fix it here too, eventually. >> /Krister >> >> 10 nov 2011 kl. 08:31 skrev Chris Snyder: >> >>> Hi all, >>> I want to start off this post by saying that I installed Lion the >>> day it came out on my Macbook Pro. Before doing so, I made a time machine backup of my Snow Leopard system, and I can't tell you how glad I am that I did. I tried Lion for a week, and found it to be terribly buggy and not nearly as intuitive to use as SL. I restored my computer back to SL, and have continued using it since. Recently, a friend of mine got a brand new iMac with Lion installed. He has been calling me asking for help understanding how to do some very simple things. using the mail program, entering a tun of contacts into his address book, and using Safari to listen to a webcast he particularly likes. While we handled mail without much difficulty, I must say that Safari and Address Book have been riddled with problems. Safari will often give us the busy signal, and the address book kicks us out of the fields and deposits us in some sort of no mans land where we must command tab back and forth to get free. He has updated to Lion 10.7.2, and yet this hasn't really fixed the issues. The nonsense with creating multiple desktops and such was a bit annoying too. I wonder if maybe simple is better some times. It's sad, but as I purchased a snow leopard full installation disc for him, I'm going to go down to his house and put SL on his machine so that he can actually have a good experience using his mac rather than the flawed and terribly buggy one he's been having. That's not to say that SL doesn't have its problems, but they are far fewer than Lion it seems. I hope that Apple will take a page from Microsoft and move quickly on to the next OS as Microsoft did from Vista to 7. I'm afraid Lion is a lemon. >>> I'm curious to know about your experiences with Lion versus Snow Leopard. >>> >>> Friendly, >>> Chris >>> -------------- >>> I'll believe corporations are people when Texas executes one. >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> -- >>> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. >>> To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com. >>> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. >>> For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. >> >> -- >> You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. >> To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com. >> To unsubscribe from this group, send email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. >> For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. >> > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. > To post to this group, send email to macvisionaries@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
