The bugs in the macOS Sierra 10.12.2

There are a lot of bugs in the macOS Sierra 10.12.2:

1. Disk utility in Mas OS Sierra can not format USB external HD or flash in native Mac format.

2. Quick Time does not remember volume. In each opening of Quick Time the volume is maximum.

3. If in Pages the colour panel is opened and the URL address os web page is copied from Safari into the Pages document then it is imposable to change the colour of the wed address stroke. You need to reopen the colour panel and then you can change of the colour of the wed address stroke.

4. In Finder when you press Alt and select any file or folder you can not see "green +" symbol near the icon. The "green +" symbol is appeared only when you move icon.

Please fix them.

MacBook Air, macOS Sierra (10.12.2)

FWIW, I can't replicate any of your issues and as John said the cursor doesn't change until the file is moved and has been that way at least as far back as Yosemite.

As Barney said…

1. Yes it can. I have formatted 4 USB Flash drives from 4GB-256GB. Plus a 2TB USB3 external.

Yes, If I select the drive rather than the partition when I use the Erase or Split the Volume options Disk Utility fails in the middle of way through the process!!!!!!!!! That is the question!!!

Personally I don't respond to replies in bold with an excess of exclamation points. Good luck though.

Okay thanks. Some hubs have been problematic so just eliminates one possible reason.

Jan 10, 2017 9:18 AM in response to John Galt

Just tried that - same result.

Sorry

If you can consistently repeat the failure, contact Apple. Perhaps it's a bug that we will just have to wait for them to fix.

Dave, I did replicate the problem on another USB3 flash drive. I had to format it twice.

Ok thanks for the confirmation - I guess it's not just us. I don't use quicklime so I'm not going to comment on the other problems mentioned in the original post.

no problem. As far as Quicktime, it does open at full volume whenever it's started. I don't remember if it did that in earlier versions or not. It's certainly not an issue for me.

I just checked El Capitan and Yosemite. QuickTime Player opens at full volume in both of those. I don't know how far back it may not have.

Just to clarify, Quicktime's volume setting is at full. It doesn't change the system's overall volume.
