OS X 10.7.2 brings number of new enhancements beyond iCloud compatibility, including Safari 5.1.1 with ten featured improvements.

The 10.7.2 update is recommended for all OS X Lion users and includes general operating system fixes that improve the stability, compatibility, and security of your Mac. It also includes support for iCloud, a breakthrough set of free cloud services that automatically and wirelessly store your content on iCloud and push it to all of your devices. iCloud on OS X Lion includes the following features:

- iCloud stores your email, calendars, contacts, Safari bookmarks, and Safari Reading List and automatically pushes them to all your devices.

- Back to My Mac provides remote access to your Mac from another Mac anywhere on the Internet.

- Find My Mac helps find a missing Mac by locating it on a map and allows you to remotely lock the Mac or wipe all its data.

Getting started with iCloud is easy. After installing the update, OS X will automatically present an iCloud setup panel. Simply enter an existing Apple ID or create a new one and then follow the on screen instructions. To learn more about iCloud visit http://www.apple.com/icloud.

The 10.7.2 update also includes Safari 5.1.1 as well as fixes that:

- Allow reordering of desktop spaces and full screen apps in Mission Control.

- Enable dragging files between desktop spaces and full screen apps.

- Address an issue that causes the menu bar to not appear in full screen apps.

- Improve the compatibility of Google contact syncing in Address Book.

- Address an issue that causes Keynote to become temporarily unresponsive.

- Improve VoiceOver compatibility with Launchpad.

- Address an issue that causes a delay in accessing the network after waking from sleep.

- Enable booting in to Lion Recovery from a locally attached Time Machine backup drive.

- Resolve an issue that causes screen zoom to stop working.

- Improve Active Directory integration.

This is one HUGE update

I had to move my MobileMe account (good riddance, by the way!) to iCloud - not without hiccups. First the servers were overloaded. Then my @mac.com email account didn't work anymore - Apple now only supports @me.com - same thing really, but the error message I got in Mail.app was "server blahblahblah rejected password for ...." - so it wasn't too helpful. I just figured they'd probably phase out the @mac.com addresses by now. Changed to @me.com and no problem. It's very fast presumably because not too many people have upgraded yet ;)

I have a MacBook Pro with the Mac OS Version 10.6.8 installed. My question is, where can I get the Lion update here in BKK without having to pay buy credit card and download from the net? I don't use credit cards and was told by the iStudio at the Central Pinklao that was the only way to do it.

Surely there must be a place here that can download into my Mac?

You can buy iTunes gift cards and redeem them in the Mac App store - basically, pay with a gift card instead of a credit card. You need a free Apple ID. Use your iTunes account.

Gift cards can be purchased at those shops that sell grey import iPhones and iPads in the mall. I don't think the official Apple dealers are allowed to sell them - but can't hurt to ask.

Anyway - pay cash for the gift card, and use that to buy OS X Lion in the Mac app store.

Alternatively, get an installer from somebody who's already done it. I saved my installer, I imagine some Mac shops would be able to help you out. Downloading from the internet is risky - you might catch a virus.

Many vendors in Pantip have it in stock... Some even at a discount if you don't mind a cd instead of Apples USB fob B)

Thanks Nikster, I used a card from a friend and got it downloaded and all seems to be working fine with the exception of my email. Will have to sort that out. Also having a hell of a time getting used to the scroll function being opposite from what I've been used to forever. Have any idea why they did this, because they could??

Thanks again!
