We continue our series of detailed review of OS X Lion; soon you will be able to read many more interesting reviews of the new operating system kupertinotsev.
When a user wants to disable any Mac running OS X Lion, then, as in previous versions, will open a special pop-up window where you can turn off the computer, or he will turn off after a certain period of time. Fairly handy feature is the ability to select the "discovery of all running applications," the next time the system starts. Admittedly, even despite the fact that this function works fine kupertinovtsy has not been fully thought through its implementation. Yes, when you run all the programs run fine and you will be able to continue working with the moment when you decided to turn off the computer. However, it has some flaws - for example, when you restart Safari, then place on the page where you viewed the information you are lost and you have to look for it yourself. Of course, it should be noted that this feature is almost close to ideal and will appreciate the virtually all users of Mac.
Also do not forget that the auto-save file after a certain period of time can be very helpful to users who have ever experienced off the light in your home. Usually after that almost all the important information (text files, etc.) are lost. Now, after any such failure or sudden system shutdown, you can not worry about the safety of all information, because the next time you run Lion, you can continue with the same time.
Unfortunately, this feature has its drawbacks. For example, the user does not always want to wait until all the load previous session with lots of Safari tabs. Yes, the system has the possibility of forced closure of all active windows in your applications, but to reach it simple user will have read a few manuals. Most likely, kupertinovtsy specifically did not activate it by default to a normal user does not accidentally shut everything and not lose important data.
If necessary, users can completely disable the function of restoring windows and applications in the system settings. It's enough to remove the check mark in the paragraph «Restore Windows», after which your Mac will no longer automatically run all the applications that were open to turn it off.
But still, we should admit that automatically saves all your programs and documents is really handy, so I could safely shut down your MacBook and continue writing articles in the following morning, with the same point at which I turned off the MacBook.
Autosave and Versions.
Of course, describing the automatic saving when you turn off and close the application, it is difficult not to tell about AutoSave in other applications, even in spite of the fact that their functionality is largely the same. In general, auto-save can really help you avoid losing important information, even if some application "zaglyuchilo" or simply stopped working. Moreover, after downloading the program you can safely return to work in the same place.
If you make various changes to the document in the file name will be made mark «Edited». A bit strange, why did not want to give kupertinovtsy users the ability to edit the name of the changed files, but must admit that this realization is very comfortable and pleasant for most users .
When you save a document by hand, like auto save is locked and you open a document if you need to download the previous version of the file, then you can open a previously saved version. Those users who do not benefit from saving the document in hand, will always be able to choose the correct version of all saved automatically.
Very handy if you want you can block the original version of the changes and continue to work exclusively with copies of the document or file. If you yourself do not block the original version, then two weeks after the file was last modified at its opening Lion will suggest to continue to work in copies or, if your wish to change the original file. The newly unlocked files remain locked during the two-week period, after which they again blocked by the system. Such protection is really quite comfortable.
Versions with autosave, allow the user to view all available versions of files in an interface that resembles that of the Time Machine. The only difference is only that in this case, you pick out the required versions of the file, not an entire operating system. But do not forget that this is made is expensive and simple MacBook or Mac Mini may be small at times "freezing", which can sometimes be annoying. To avoid this, do not create many copies of a file.
