Start up transition animation gone!
Hello,
After updating from Lion to Mountain Lion on my 2011 Macbook pro, these couple of days I've noticed an awkward behavior.
The start up animation when the apple logo slides up and the dark grey background fades in is missing!!
Now when I start up my laptop from complete shut down, it shows the Apple Logo and spinning wheel (about 15~20 sec), then jumps to a plan light grey screen with the black arrow on the left top corner (about 10~12 sec), and then it jumps to the fully materialized linen password screen. All the pretty animations in between have vanished!
This start up process takes about 30 seconds, so I don't think it's because my laptop is atarting up too fast that it skips the animations. It used to all run perfectly when using Lion.
Does anyone have a similar situation? or found a solution to this??
Thanks,
Jon
