Every operation which used to be instant when the Mac was new, now has a delay of anything from half a second to over 10 seconds. It feels like walking in mud. And it's always the first time I do something I haven't done for a few minutes -- if I repeat the same operation immediately afterwards, it's instant. Long delays are often (but not always) accompanied by the beachball -- which I see a lot. fjordaan Wed, 28 Jan 2009 22:24:40 GMT http://webx.lists.apple.com/webx fjordaan Sun, 22 Oct 2000 16:01:45 GMT http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/XHIGWindows/chapter_18_section_7.html A dialog is a window designed to elicit a response from the user. Many dialogs—the Print dialog, for example—permit the user to provide many responses at one time. fjordaan Fri, 07 Nov 2008 22:26:54 GMT http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/XHIGWindows/XHIGWindows.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20000961-TPXREF20 An item that provides click-through is one that a user can activate on an inactive window with one click, instead of clicking first to make the window active and then clicking the item. Click-through provides greater efficiency in performing such tasks as closing or resizing inactive windows, and copying or moving files. In many cases, however, click-through could confuse a user who clicks an item unintentionally. fjordaan Tue, 19 May 2009 14:12:32 GMT http://www.applematters.com/index.php/section/comments/zune-marketplaces-absurd-pricing-scheme/ fjordaan Sun, 04 Mar 2007 18:30:20 GMT http://ask.metafilter.com/73296/Apple-Remote-malfunctioning Without warning, my Apple IR Remote has started malfunctioning.
