Ok thanks! Thinking of updating from ML. Anyone notice if usernames passwords are still ok, ftp , sftp clients etc in Dreamweaver. Everything ok to update?
I use apple and pc just want to be sure everything is ok before I do.

Has anyone noticed that a process called "kernel_task" takes over your memory? It's running on my machine about 70% of the time, making the fan run and annoying me. Anyone know what this is?

- Is that what has been reving up my fan? Son of a.instrmntl
- that's the kernel, that's basically your computer itself doing stuffmonospaced

- Yeah, I want to know what's causing it. My fan shouldn't run for hours when the computer is just sitting.nb
- ooohhh... focus on what apps your user is running, not the systems processesmonospaced

So.... does anyone use Chrome with Mavericks? I've been reading about Chrome being 32-bit only, Java 7 doesn't support 32-bit, and wondering if Chrome or Java (or, a 32-to-64 bit interpreter app of some kind) was making the computer run hot.
I've been using Safari today and keeping Chrome closed, and everything seems to be fine. Coincidence? Or is Chrome shit on Mavericks?
- Maybe it's one of my Chrome plug-ins? Although I don't have anything fancy in my Chrome. Just adblock & iReader.nb
- Do you actually use Java?animatedgif

- Resetting the SMC reminds of OS9 and the 1990s. What a crazy thing to have to do nowadays.nb
- Yeah, you never have to do anything like this on a Windows PC.monospaced

Running Safari instead of Chrome all day, along with PS, DW and ID CS5. No kernel_task problem yet, and the fan hasn't needed to run. Just ran an online Java game for a while (Java 7 installed) in Safari and it has no problem at all. Makes me think it's a Chrome or 32-bit issue.

OMG, holding down the command key in the Finder when opening a folder now opens the folder in a new tab instead of a new window. Can some explain the reasoning behind this change?!? It seems to me the ONLY reason to command-double-click a folder would be because you want to open a new window so you can drag some files from one window to the other. NO?

Just turn off tabs in finder prefs, they're pointless in file management anyway

It's stolen from Total Finder, which turned Finder into tabbed windows. Been using it forever. It's great.

OK. Here's a weird bug.... I used Text Edit a lot for keeping notes of things for myself, to do lists, all kinds of stuff.
I noticed that if I search for a file, there is TWO different files. One file I can access and the path appears to be "Home Folder" and the other is in "nathan" (The name of my home folder.)
For a while I thought it was just a bug that displayed things incorrectly. But today I was looking for a bit of info that I had added to a text file yesterday. And the text wasn't there. I knew I had typed it in, so I used Open Recent... and sure enough: there are two versions of the file. I opened the other one and it has the newest text.
WHAT THE FUCK.

^ Shit! Nevermind about the duplicates. It's not a Mavericks issue. It's me being an idiot issue. MY MISTAKE.

Fuckers. I'll be getting the 15" Retina MBP tomorrow. Full spec. My first private Mac. I'm excited like a teenage girl in college movies.

@nb, probably related to the clusterfuck that is "Versions" and iCloud
- Yeah, I've gotten a few messages that tell me I can't save "Versions" because of incorrect HD format.nb
