Finder: Connect to Server & Spaces
If you open the "connect to server" dialog, it will bring you to the space where you opened it the last time.
But as it is a dialog, it should be opened on the space you are currently working on. This happens even if you don't have (more...)
Always open the "connect to server" dialog on the current space.

Use Icon instead of Application Menu Name
It would be greate to have an OPTION to use the application icon as in the menu instead of the application name.
So to the right of the apple icon there would be the safari icon.
Sometimes it happens to me, that I have an app with (more...)
To be able to use the app icon instead of the name would free some space and (imho) looks great.

iCal: add todos
If there is some free space in the todo list, then a double click on the white space adds a new todo item. But if the list is full so there is no white space, the only way to add an item is to use the menubar.
One possible solution is, to add a "add todo" icon to the bottom toolbar. This would look like a +, similar to the "add a calendar"-+.
Or at the top of the list there is a static entry "add new todo" that adds (more...)

Finder: Wronge crendentials in "connect to server" dialog
If you connect to a network share via de "connect to server" dialog, normally after some time you're asked to enter the username and the password.
If you enter the wrong credentials after some time a message is displayed that informs (more...)
The try again button should allow the user to enter the credentials again. The field could be prefilled. So if the user enter the right credentials and the reason why this failed is another one, then the user has just to click ok.

Safari: RSS icon
Why does Safari not use the default RSS icon? All other browsers I know use the same icon. I'd prefer that icon too.
Use the world wide standard rss icon for the address bar.

iCal: better todo management
It would be greate to have some kind of todo classification (date, priority, ...). iCal just shows a plain list of colord todos. Yes there is a priority flag and I can sort after title, date, calendar, priority.
But what if I want to sort after (more...)
Enhance the iCal Todo Management.

Feature Request: Java 1.6 for Leopard 32bit
Why is java 1.6 only available for 64bit Leopard?
PS: I know that this has nothing to to with usability or user interfaces. But there is no other site where I could put this stuff.
Please Apple, be so kind, provide a 32bit versions as well.
(And we want a 32bit Snow Leopard too.)

Spaces: overview only on primary screen
On my dual screen setup I see the spaces overview only on my first screen. The second screen is black. This is a strange behaviour.
Show the spaces overview on each screen. Each screen should only show its own virtual desktops - not others

System: startup sound
If you're in a meeting and you start up your macbook pro, everone hears the "GONG". That's so annoying.
Sure, you can turn your sound off before shutting down. But what if you forgot?
There is no option (more...)
Let the user disable the system startup gong

Mail: message disposition notification
Every other (gui) mail programm I know has such a feature.
But in Apple Mail it's not possible. I can't send mails that automatically send an answer if the receipient gets them.
Add this "feature" to Mail

Standby: password protection
Mac OS offers an functionality that asks for your password after leaving the screensaver/standby mode.
But sometimes that doesnot work correctly. If I close the lid of my MacBook Pro, the standby mode is activated. If I then disconnect my usb mouse, (more...)
Correct that bug(s).

Dock: let users set the orientation
My dock is on the left side of the bottom of the screen - it's not centered. This option can only be activated via some "geek tools" like TinkerTool. Why isn't this a standard option of the Dock?
In my opinion it's much (more...)
Let the user set the dock orientation: left/beginning, right/end, center.

Logon Window: background image & screen config
If you boot up your Macbook Pro to the login window, plugin another monitor, press F7 (change screen mode) the clone mode will be activated and the background image vanishes. Only the blue background color is shown.
Correct that bug.

Safari: no fullscreen/kiosk mode
Firefox for win (and maybe linux) has a function called fullscreen mode. This shows just the address bar, a few buttons and the content on the whole screen.
Sometimes that can be very useful.
Safari does not offer such a function (more...)
Implement a Safari fullscreen mode that only shows addressbar + toolbar, bookmark and tabbar. No apple menu, no dock, no desktop!

Finder: select files with keyboard
If you select a file in Finder and then use shift and arrow down, the selection is extended to include the next file. If you press shift + arrow up, I would expect to unselect the file and end up with just the original file selected.
But this does (more...)
Adapt the selection functionality so that it works as expected.
