Once I knew I could run my main apps in the new operating system I decided to take the $20 plunge.<\/p>\n<p>The downloading and installation went off without a hitch, as I expected. Spent a good chunk of the afternoon familiarizing myself with the new features that I had only read and heard about. It won&#8217;t take me very long to adjust to the new way of computing, but what is taking me a while to get used to is the scrolling in the opposite direction. Too many years of doing it the same way on too many computers.<\/p>\n<p>Love the Notification Center, especially since Growl notifications stopped working with the last update to Snow Leopard.<\/p>\n<p>One huge unfortunate that I did not expect was losing every single Stickies note I had written and saved. Luckily I had an fairly recent Stickies Database I could open in TextEdit and copy into the newly created database, but I still lost a few recent notes.<\/p>\n<p>And I can now finally take full advantage of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icloud.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">iCloud<\/a> and all it&#8217;s syncing.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, one of the main reasons for upgrading to Mountain Lion was so that I could download and begin using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/ibooks-author\/\" target=\"_blank\">iBooks Author<\/a>. I have so many ebook ideas I&#8217;d like to create from all my photos and then put online in the iBookstore.<\/p>\n<p>Should be a fun next few days and weeks.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"13539\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/2012\/11\/19\/new-roar-to-my-mac\/osx-mountain-lion-lo-res\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/OSX-Mountain-Lion-lo-res.jpg?fit=590%2C443&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"590,443\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"OSX Mountain Lion lo-res\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/OSX-Mountain-Lion-lo-res.jpg?fit=570%2C428&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-13539\" title=\"OSX Mountain Lion lo-res\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/OSX-Mountain-Lion-lo-res.jpg?resize=570%2C428\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/OSX-Mountain-Lion-lo-res.jpg?w=590&amp;ssl=1 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.pacsworlds.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/OSX-Mountain-Lion-lo-res.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I finally upgraded my iMac from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
