Allow "Shift-Eject" or other key combination to be mapped as "Windows" delete key.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on November 1, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

Is some instances, like when using Parallels and other web apps or X11 apps, the delete key of Windows cannot be mapped using a Mac Keyboard.

This is sometimes a hindrance (even when playing Impossible Quiz 2)...

Allow a key combination "shift delete" or "shift eject" to be mapped as a Delete Jey.

Allow "Low Battery Warning" for Mouse to "Remind me again (insert time frame)

Submitted by hoopla_punta on October 30, 2008 to Annoyance

The "Low Battery Warning" Window for Mighty Mouses is very annoying, as you see it each time you wake from sleep and such.

Allow it to "Remind me again" in: 1 hour, 1 day...

Blank CD window should show option to open Burn Folder, not Finder.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on October 30, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

If a blank CD is inserted and you choose open Finder (plus you have a Finder window already open) nothing happens. Instead the option should be open Burn Folder, so that files can be easily dropped inside.

Blank CD window should show option to open Burn Folder, not Finder.

Eject Bezel not descriptive enough, should show if unable to eject.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on October 30, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

There are a few times when I keep hitting the eject button, and see the eject bezel, but the CD doesn't pop out. I keep trying till I try ejecting from Finder, and only then I see that the CD is in use by an App.

Show that the CD is in use in the Bezel if unable to eject.

Customizable "Show item info" in Finder.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on October 30, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

Show item info of Icon View in Finder is rather limited, it should be able to show the date last modified and created, and other information like size.

Allow a drop down list to customize "Show item info" in Icon View.

Clicking Title Bar 4 times causes Window to minimize and open.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on September 28, 2008 to Bug

This only happens if you have double tap to minimize. Of course this isn't a bad thing. You can double tap again (in the 0.5 second frame) to save the window.

This seems to happen only with some apps...

iTunes 8 not Aqua-ish enough. Cover Flow functionality issues.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on September 10, 2008 to Aesthetics

With the new grid-view in iTunes 8, the interface is looking like that of a iPod Touch or iPhone. However grid-view does not have the same effects as that of its counterpart, like it not having those "slide" effects when selecting the method (more...)

For Grid-View, it should have the following Aqua Animations:

Switching between Artist, Albums, Genres, Composers: Sliding animation in the relevant direction.

Double Clicking an item: The album will zoom and flip, to reveal (more...)

Not able to make quicklook window "a real window" or sticky.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on August 22, 2008 to Usability

Quicklook windows are not "real windows" as they fade away when you move away from finder and exposeing. This is a problem when you want to compare documents in another app.

A button (maybe on the title bar) to make the window a real one. To show this the transparencies of the window is removed. Also the window can be set to be the frontmost with a checkbox.

When your screen is locked, like if you have it enabled for screensavers, it is not possible to change the volume of the Mac from the login window.

CoverFlow does not allow "file description" under name to be changed

Submitted by hoopla_punta on August 22, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

in CF, the file description under the preview only can show its format and is not changeable.

Well, make it possible to change.

CoverFlow does not tell if document is on a level lower than the start.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on August 22, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

IF you open a triangle in CF, the files of that folder gets listed in CF too, at the same size. This is confusing as you cannot see which files are from which levels.

Shrink the file preview or use some sort of representation.

Finder not "keyboard navigation" friendly

Submitted by hoopla_punta on August 22, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

It seems that it is possible to navigate via keyboard. But it uses modifiers, so it's a little difficult.

There are some issues with keyboard navigation in Finder.

Unable to open more than one quicklook window.

Submitted by hoopla_punta on August 18, 2008 to Annoyance, Usability

1. The main problem here is that it is not possible to open more than one QL window. So it is rather hard to compare documents if you want to and you'll have to keep switching between the documents.

1. After selecting your documents and opening quicklook, there will be a button next to the index sheet, which is to split the QL window a second one, the second would show the item you are currently are on.
There is also a there will be also (more...)
