Hi guys. I just got this problem a while ago. Whenever I launch Night Owl, as the subject says, it's going crazy. I get this constant bonking sound and when I go to Night Owl to see what the problem is, the dialog says please log in to Twitter using X where X is my username, followed by two buttons

Hi all. One thing I'm hoping is that OS X 10.10.11 will support this MacBook from 2010. It'll suck if I have to buy a new Mac to run it. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Anders Holmberg Sent: Tuesday, June 02,

Hi all. I got some great news. I don't know how, but my Night Owl is back operational. However I had to boot into Windows to try and do some accessibility survey that Google has on right now and when I booted back to the Mac, that dialog came back again. I said cancel and quit the app and launch

Wouldn't we beta testers get permission to download the El Capitan beta automatically? That's really not my main concern, my main concern is will I be able to run it on my mid 2010 white MacBook? From what I heard on Twitter, it sounds like El Capitan has an advanced graphics engine or something

Hi Ray. I don't really want Apple to get rid of Alex. I lve the fact that he takes breaths and everything. I am with you on one thing though, I hope Apple considers making the Siri voices available in El Capitan. After all, you can get them for NVDA in Windows so why can't it be done on the Mac?

Hey Chris. Didn't Apple buy out Beats Music and therefore change the name to Apple Music? In any event, I'm pretty happy with Apple Music. I actually listened to Beats 1 practically when it launched. I'm surprised and disappointed, however, that it doesn't have a decades area in the radio sectio

Hi Chris. Same here. I pretty much got rid of both Spotify and Jango when Apple Music came out today. I hope though, and this really pissed me off with Spotify, when you ban a song, it STAYS banned. Meaning with Spotify, I'd ban a song, and then after a while, I find that it's playing again. Sh

Hi Chris. Yeah, Beats 1 is pretty much all rock, hip hop, techno and maybe some R & B tracks. The thing I like about it is unlike most FM radio stations, there's no real rotation so that means there's no repetition whatsoever. But if you're not into any of these genres I listed above, then no, i
