Apps that ask if I want to save my work when I literally haven't changed anything, I just opened the file to take a look at it.

Actually the most annoying thing of all for me (in PS) is Adobe Bridge...I never fucking use that program...once in a while I click on the link when I mean to click on Open in PS and it starts loading for five minutes.
- really? I love Bridge. It took me a while to get used to it but now I rely on it.monkeyshine

Mac programs do that "let's save the document" thing ALL THE TIME. More than Windows programs, in my experience. It's annoying.
- I don't believe youmadirish
- do you have Pages? try it. you'll see.Jaline
- until you need this feature, you're right. it's probably annoying. but it's a life saver at times.Gucci
- I mean that it happens even when you don't make ANY changes to the document. So it's pointless!Jaline
- lol- i have Pages, and this never happens to me. at all. maybe a pref to change?madirish
- really? share your secrets :)Jaline
- maybe it's a problem with the Leopard installation? Not sure if that has anything to do with it.Jaline

Mac OSX - 2-10 minute pinwheel resulting from clicking on a layer in a large psd, trying to save a psd, multitasking.. pretty much doing anything consistent with being a power user.
Being a new Tivo user, their interface really blows compared to replaytv and there's a constant delay when doing anything.
Default sync usability on iPods/iTunes/Zunes/Zune software
- Not that doing minor tasks in Photoshop is being a power user.. My work Mac is just lameRodimus79

the SAVE and SAVE AS buttons are too damn close.

apple-s, apple-q and apple-w are all too close. you think you hit apple-w when you really hit apple-q and it doesn't ax you to save. or you hit apple-w on a new document when you meant to do save, hit enter really fast cuz you expect it to do 'save as' and then you quit and lose your work.

there is no apple-z in real life.
i spilled my coffee the other morning and immediately thought to apple-z.
