Yosemite

[sleigh]

A question for those on the Macintosh platform. I started to download the Yosemite system software, but as I was doing that, I started reading the comments about the upgrade -- and there were so many people complaining about issues and problems with Yosemite (outnumbering the people who were pleased with the upgrade) that I cancelled the download.

Anyone have any experience with 10.10.1? Should I be waiting for 10.10.2? Should I just stay with 10.9, which works just fine?

M'wife drank the Apple kool-aid long ago. She downloaded Yosemite for her desktop as soon as it became available. Since then she's had three booked online interventions with the service guys, bumping up the hierarchy every time, to their very top super-duper mechanics; the machine continues to shut down randomly for no obvious reason (after a year and a half of working perfectly hitherto); on Monday we're taking it in to the Apple store for their local geniuses to poke at it physically.

Based on this data-point of one, I'd hold off unless you have a real reason to upgrade.

Wow, sorry to hear that. I went and upgraded last night, and thankfully everything went smoothly and quickly, and I've experienced no problems. Sorry your wife's had such a terrible experience, and hopefully the genii at the Apple Store can get things straightened out!
