![]() Some people use the yellow button in the left corner of most window toolbars to banish windows temporarily to the Dock others never take advantage of that feature, because it fills the Dock with tiny window icons. One of the biggest concerns minimizing windows. Snow Leopard brings a few minor improvements to the Dock. Once you get the hang of it, this new functionality can really speed up work, especially on systems with smaller displays (such as MacBooks). Drag the image over one of the windows and hover for another moment, and that window will come to the fore, allowing you to drop the image right where you want it. This feature also works with dragged items–if you drag an image onto, say, the Pages icon in the Dock and hover there for a moment, Exposé will display all the open Pages windows. (Windows that you’ve minimized will appear, too, though they’re smaller and sit below a faint line that separates them from the visible windows.) If you click on any application icon in the Dock and continue to hold your mouse button down for half a second, Snow Leopard will engage Exposé and immediately display all of that application’s windows. Press Command-1 to rearrange the windows alphabetically or Command-2 to group windows by application.Įxposé has also now been integrated into the Dock. With Snow Leopard, windows are aligned on a grid, so most people will find it a little easier to quickly scan through their screen and find the window they want. In previous versions of Mac OS X, when you used Exposé to display every window in your current application or all the windows on your screen, the arrangement of the windows could be a bit haphazard. Snow Leopard offers a few improvements to Exposé, the window-management functionality originally introduced in Mac OS X Panther. We’ve asked an IT expert to discuss Exchange in Snow Leopard in detail, and will be posting a separate article on the subject soon here at. ![]() If you’re syncing your iPhone to the same Exchange server, all those calendar events will sync up automatically.Īs any IT manager will tell you, Exchange can be a deep and complex subject. iCal will even perform tricky tasks like scheduling meetings based on the free/busy status of invitees you can accept or decline meeting invitations right from Mail. The way Exchange support works in Snow Leopard is pretty simple: once you add an Exchange account in Mail, you’ll start receiving e-mail messages in Mail, you’ll be able to view Exchange contacts in Address Book, and Exchange calendars and tasks will appear in iCal. (Ironically, Windows doesn’t support Exchange out of the box.) As a result, it has become that much easier to integrate the Mac into businesses that have standardized on Exchange. The iPhone got support for Exchange last year, and now it’s the Mac’s turn to join the party. The biggest new feature in Snow Leopard is support for Exchange, Microsoft’s popular e-mail, contact, and calendar server. ![]() Here’s a look at some of the biggest changes due to arrive with Snow Leopard on Friday, August 28. Snow Leopard may be a “minor” update to Mac OS X, with a $29 upgrade price and a focus on improved speed and reliability, but it’s still bursting at the seams with tweaks, changes, and improvements–as well as a few modifications that might well be quite controversial.
