Anyone tried the new Server app yet? I'm considering buying it but don't want to spend the cash now and find out later that i have to pay again when the Yosemite version is released. I don't have a developer account otherwise I could have got it for free.

Installed 10 this morning and finding it a pretty worthless update - no major new functionality, just a slight UI update.

Thanks for the heads-up. That's a $50 upgrade that Parallels are selling. They claim a 50% improvement in performance but I highly doubt it.

I notice 0 difference in speeds :p

Edit: Any ideas how much I could get for my non-retina 15" Macbook Pro? 2.4Ghz i7, 8GB, 750GB HDD, Radeon 6770M (perfect condition)

I bought the server app. Works on Mavericks but is not compatible with Yosemite. Going to spend some hours this week configuring it.

Thanks. I thought as much.

Why don't you start a "Feeler" thread on Carbonite? You will get better answers there.

I upgraded my Parallels to 10. Definatly an improvement. Performance wasn't very good when had 2 instances of Visual Studio Pro running, and now it's pretty good. However this is without Yosemite. Not willing load a beta OS on my MacBook :)

BTW - if you need to wipe and re-install Java 7, you will run into problems. Workaround is this:

Change the OS X version from 10.10 to 10.9:
sudo sed -i ” ‘s/>10.10</>10.9</’ /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist

Install JDK 1.7

Change the OS X version from 10.9 back to 10.10:
sudo sed -i ” ‘s/>10.9</>10.10</’ /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist

Can anyone with DP confirm the following (I am running public beta, and have the issue below):

Under Mavericks I used to use port-forwarding of port 80 to 8080 for my local Tomcat installation via ipfw (/sbin/ipfw add 100 fwd 127.0.0.1,8080 tcp from any to any 80 in) which was deprecated in Mavericks and has been replaced with "pf" in Yosemite - i.e. in 10.10 you would have to do the following:

## Add the below into /etc/pf.anchors/com.tomcat (remember the spare line-break)
rdr pass on lo0 inet proto tcp from any to any port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 8080


## Add the below into /etc/pf.conf, right after "rdr-anchor "com.apple/*" (remember the spare line-break)
rdr-anchor "tomcat"


## Add this line directly after load anchor "com.apple" from "/etc/pf.anchors/com.apple":
load anchor "tomcat" from "/etc/pf.anchors/com.tomcat"

- Next, reload the rules into pf by running sudo pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf
- Finally, enable pf by running sudo pfctl -e

Now on Mavericks I can telnet both ports 80 and 8080, but on Yosemite (at least public beta) I can only see port 80 and not the forwarded to port (i.e. 8080).

Running on a MacBook Pro with SSD and i7 there is absolutely no difference. I would think that on older laptops without SSD it would be sluggish.
