Sorry, slightly of topic, but…

I don't want to upgrade to Mavericks because of the crippled Sync-Services.
With Mavericks one cannot sync it's iPhone via USB-Port anymore.
You have to use your iCloud account at Apple to sync your contacts and 
calendars.
I didn't find any alternate solution.


I don't own any iOS devices, so syncing is not important to me.  It also 
means, improvements (which is a matter of opinion, of course) that helps 
OS and iOS communicate is unimportant to me.  The two Mavericks features 
that interest me, the tabbed Finder and Tags, I already have in Mountain 
Lion via 3rd party software.  And, I've read elsewhere of 
software/Mavericks issues.


So, I'm in no hurry to update, if at all.


All of you Apple users, you have no problem with this privacy attack?


Privacy issues are the reason I avoid any cloud involvement other than 
web browsing as much as I can.  That's limited to shopping, online 
banking, and a Dropbox account where nothing personal is stored, no 
backups, nada.  I use it as a pseudo FTP site for large files rather 
than try to email or "sumpin'".My computers are networked, so I 
don't need it for transferring data between systems.

Re: Anyone used Lyx on Mac OS X Mavericks

[Murat Yildizoglu]

OK, I have missed indeed this point, since I have adopted iCloud for
limited synching for some time ago (I do not sync my mail, and my calendars
are on GCalender, so I do not use iCloud either). I understand that this is
1/ inflexible; 2/not very respective of privacy.  I must admit that the
comfort of invisibly synching all my necessary information between all my
iOS and OSX devices reduced my vigilance on this aspect of this mechanism.

Re: Anyone used Lyx on Mac OS X Mavericks

[Richard Talley]

Backup and sync (contacts, calendars) are two different things.

Apple has removed the sync services framework from OS X Mavericks.

Look here and scroll down to the 'What you can sync' section:

Re: Anyone used Lyx on Mac OS X Mavericks

[Murat Yildizoglu]

I do not understand your remark. I am, at this moment backing up my iPhone
(iOS7) on my MacBook (Mavericks) without any problem. In my case, I have
always unchecked the backup through iCloud and checked the backup "on this
computer". I also see that synchronization is available as a button and it
will probably become active when the backup will finish.

Re: Anyone used Lyx on Mac OS X Mavericks

[Murat Yildizoglu]

This probably depends on your keyboard configuration too. I use a
customized French configuration where \ is inserted using the sterling key
(that I never use anyway), and this works under Mavericks and Lyx 2.05 and
2.1 beta1 in my case.

Anyone used Lyx on Mac OS X Mavericks

[Robert Betz]

I have recently installed Mavericks. Lyx works, but have found the the '\' 
character does not print on the screen. Instead one gets a " (inverted comma) 
character. This occurs in general text, and the ERTs and in Maths equations.

Has anyone come across this, and do they know of a fix.

Thanks.
