![]() ![]() Then in June, when Apple previewed the new version of its Mac operating system, the company revealed that would no longer be named after cats. For this reason everyone expected that the next version of OS X would be named after a big cat too. Why did Apple call this version of OS X ‘Mavericks’?Īpple’s OS X has a long history of cat names, since version 10.0 the versions have had cat code names, although these codenamed only became official names when Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar launched. The other result of this is that it will have a positive effect on the environment, not just that, these power-saving features will cost you less in your own energy requirements, and you will be able to benefit from more battery life without upgrading to new hardware. When it launched, Apple claimed that the MacBook Air can offer 10 hours of battery life – that number should go up once you are running Mavericks. Intel’s new low-power Haswell chipset, suggests that we could soon get a whole days battery life from our Mac laptops, without ever having to plug in. This news, coupled with the introduction of For example, Apple will exert more control over the way apps run to increase the time that CPUs spend idle, throttling down apps that are not being actively used, and even compressing memory to reduce swap disk access.Īccording to Apple, these changes could boost the average MacBook’s battery life by as much as 50 percent. The new Mac operating system offers a dramatic reduction in power consumption thanks to new under-the-hood software technologies. Meanwhile, the allure of free OS upgrades makes Mac hardware more appealing to shoppers, especially those from the Windows world who are used to paying for a operating system upgrade – the standard, full version, of Windows 8.1 costs £99. That lets developers create apps targeting Mavericks’ capabilities, rather than limiting features for the sake of backward compatibility. ![]() Many of the new features in Mavericks are “engineering techniques to make up for Mac hardware limitations,” complains Macworld publisher, Simon Jary.Īlternatively, the decision to make Mavericks free could also be seen as an offensive move, specifically a dig at Microsoft Windows.Ĭrucially, shifting to a free upgrade ensures that stragglers who wouldn’t have paid for OS X Mavericks will be up-to-date software-wise. There is some criticism that, while free, this is a very minor update, so minor that Apple couldn’t charge for it. This was a free update to Mac OS X 10.0 which had been plagued with bugs. Last time Apple offered a free update to OS X was OS X 10.1 (codename Puma) which was released for free on 25 September 2001. This isn’t actually the first time a Mac OS update has been free. Now all of a sudden it Only shows up in a totally different state and with exact name search. Is there something I could do to send signals to Google to show that I am in Matthews, NC?Ģ months ago my listing quit showing up at all unless you typed exact business name What could possibly cause my listing or Google to do this? I have been without my listing for a few months now and have NO calls coming in from it. If you search Locksmith Independence, KS it shows up on the maps. If you search Locksmith Matthews, NC my listing does not show up at all. Keep in mind the GMB is in Matthews, NC All my service areas and the actual map show the correct areas. Now if I search my business name under the auto populate I see it with Independence, KS on the listing. I pretty much do not have any traffic, views or calls now. Posted about my SAB listing a few weeks ago about not showing up in search only when you entered the exact name. ![]()
